People in the League, Masters of Time Management

Mu Bai bowed again, then looked at the two trapped companions, and asked one last question before proving his identity:

"It's time-consuming to say, they shouldn't 'wake up' halfway, right?"

"Not as long as you don't move around." Ike explained, "In a static time field, time has no meaning. How long the time field lasts depends on the energy consumption of the active person."

This is easy to understand - if you sleep in the time field, the time field can last for a long time.But if you're going to do extreme sports in it, it's probably over in seconds.

"So that's how it is." Mu Bai's last trace of worry was also eliminated.

Now, he can say everything with confidence.

Void invasion, resistance war, the end of Runeterra... All the things that happened in the future were told one by one, and Ike's expression changed from confusion to surprise and despair.

The bright future he was looking forward to turned out to be such a cruel doomsday...

At first, he was a little skeptical, thinking that the other party was making things up.

Until Mu Bai told all about his life experience, including the origin of the Z-type drive energy core—that was a secret that only he knew.

"I... I don't know what to say... I'm surprised, really..." Ike shook his head again and again, with a helpless wry smile on his face.

But it's the reaction of any sane person to learn that the end of the world is only a few years away.

"Don't be too pessimistic." In contrast, Mu Bai seemed much calmer, "Since I'm here, you won't die, and there is still hope in Runeterra."

"...Well." The young Ike nodded with difficulty, and then asked: "So...what's the misunderstanding tonight?"

"It's the imprudent gentleman's fault."

Mu Bai pointed to Jess who was not far away. The latter was still in a weird posture, which looked a little funny.

It's a pity that I don't have a camera in my hand now, otherwise I would laugh at him for the rest of my life.

"He took the energy core driven by the Z-type as the target to hunt down."

"This misunderstanding is really...stupid. Sure enough, the Pilgrims are all the same, stupid and arrogant." Ike said angrily.

Just because of Jess' reckless behavior, he was blown up three times just now!

Although the injury can recover after going back in time, the piercing pain cannot be escaped!

Moreover, reversing time and space consumes a lot, and he still hasn't slowed down yet.

"Sorry." Mu Bai sincerely apologized.

"It's the leather man who should apologize... Forget it, don't care about it." Ike sighed again.

In fact, this can't be completely blamed on Jess, after all, his crystal sense is indeed correct.

The energy core of the Z-type drive and the energy core of the Hextech warhammer are both derived from the fragments of the same original crystal, and the crystal sensor will naturally respond.

This oolong dates back to a year ago.

At that time, Jess had just obtained a primordial crystal from the Shurima expedition team. Before he could study it thoroughly, Victor rushed into his laboratory and snatched the crystal away, causing a big explosion.

As luck would have it, Ike the Wild Child was on an "expedition".

He sneaks into the ruins of the recently bombed laboratory to explore, and is surprised to find a treasure: a blue-green crystal shard that emits magical light.

Soon after, the Z-Drive was introduced.

"What should we do now?" Ike frowned as he looked at the Hextech cannon in Jess' hands.

The misunderstanding is contact, but the trouble is still there.

The ball of electric energy has squeezed to the edge of the muzzle, and once time resumes running, the house will not escape the fate of being blown to pieces.

"How about this, I will turn back the time again, and you go up to stop him as fast as possible?"

"Don't be so troublesome." Mu Bai chuckled, picked up Dolan's sword on the ground, and walked to Jess step by step.

"I'll count to three, and then you can release the time field."

Chapter 57 The Fog Border of Spark Lane

For a split second, Jace thought his eyes or his head were broken.

He clearly saw that Mu Bai was about half a meter away from him just now, but when he blinked, the latter teleported to him.

This is terrible.

Because he can no longer hold the electric energy ball.

The next moment, a large ball of electric energy shot out through the acceleration belt, and the sound of electric current piercing the air was creepy.

Jace's painful cry was stuck in his throat, but it was too late to cry out.Jinx, who was standing not far away, closed her eyes directly, unwilling to see the cruel scene that followed.

But the person involved, Mu Bai, just stood there blankly, with a faint smile on his face.

Of course he wasn't scared stupid, he was confident.

Just when the ball of electric energy was about to hit the corner of his clothes, an invisible wall of blast blocked it.

An attack that was enough to blow up an entire bungalow couldn't make any waves in front of the wind wall, like a stone sinking into the sea or a weight falling into a well.

Lightning, eaten by the blast.

"Mu...Mubai?" Jess was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Almost, just a little bit, he killed his companion with his own hands...

"You...you're crazy, Xiaobai..." Jinx was also still in shock, with tense cold sweat all over her forehead.

"I'm sorry to scare you, but this is also a helpless move."

Mu Bai put the sword back into its sheath, then pointed to Ike who was standing by the corner.

"I can't blow up other people's houses. I don't have that much money to pay for it."

"Ah?" Jess looked in the direction of his finger, and suddenly found a young man not far away.

Dark skin, weird hairstyle, flamboyant attire... a typical local boy in Zaun.

"Victor's thug? You're so young... Another poor guy who's gone astray." He turned his cannon to aim at Ike, with caution written all over his face.

The latter frowned, and replied in a sarcastic tone: "Does anyone know the difference between Pillow and a pig? I do—pigs walk on four legs, and Pedro walks on two. That's all."

"Hey, he's still a poor wretch with a temper."

"Stop screaming, your head is as stupid as the big hammer in your hand."

"It seems that you want to fight?"

"Come on Pilgrimage, I'll show you the way the people of Zaun greet you."

The two arrogant young scientists refused to give in to the other, each holding their weapons and staring at each other, the atmosphere gradually became anxious.Jinx looked like she was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and she smiled and folded her arms and waited for the show.

"Stop..." Mu Bai hurriedly stood between the two of them, blocking their hostile gazes, "Don't expand the misunderstanding, the business is important..."

The violent Jess obviously didn't want to let it go, he tilted his neck, pointed at Ike and was about to curse.

The latter was also not to be outdone, and the Zaun greeting that had been brewing for a long time almost blurted out.

Until they heard the sound of the blade rubbing against the scabbard.

Jess coughed twice, and adjusted his suit by the way, "As a gentleman, I think fighting is a very vulgar behavior."

Ike whistled a few times in embarrassment, and put his hands behind his neck, "I'm a genius in Zuan, and I don't bother to play rough with Pillow."

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Mu Bai smiled and pulled out Dolan's sword, the cold light on the blade was creepy.

"When I explain the situation later, please keep quiet... After all, things like swords are easy to go off fire, you should all understand?"

"Indeed, indeed..." The two responded quickly.

"It seems that everyone is a sensible person." Mu Bai nodded in satisfaction, and then explained the root cause of this misunderstanding.

…………

……

A few minutes later, Ike basically understood about Victor and Code C, and Jess also understood why his crystal sense would mistake the target.

But the latter still has some misgivings—about going back in time and standing still.

As a scientist, he knows that it is difficult to control time, let alone go back in time several times in a row to avoid disasters.

Mubai and Ike have no good way to prove this. After all, Jess's memory will be reset after time goes back, and it seems to him as if nothing happened.

He can only digest it by himself.

"It's surprising." Jess looked at Ike with a complicated look, and then at the Z-drive in Ike's hand.

Of course, he was just looking at it, and he wasn't so stingy enough to force others to return the original crystal shards to him.

After all, they are all companions, so there is no need to worry too much.Besides, he wasn't confident that he could use the crystal better than Ike.

When Victor's old lair is copied, this small fragment is nothing.

"Okay, I was reckless, I apologize." Jess bowed to Ike with a sincere attitude.

Ike spread his hands and curled his lips, accepting the apology.

After a not-so-pleasant hiccup, it's time for things to get back on track.

Mu Bai clapped his hands, drew the three people's attention to himself, and said, "It's time to go, everyone."

As soon as the words fell, Jinx and Jess responded immediately, full of enthusiasm.

Only Ike stood beside him without saying a word, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

If you want to travel through time and space with Mubai and save the world, he is willing.But what kind of iron head Victor is going to beat...

Let's not talk about whether it is dangerous or not, it always feels...too sudden?

Including everything that happened tonight, it was too sudden...

He needs a little buffer time.

"I'll come back to you when everything is over." Mu Bai saw his hesitation, and immediately gave him a step in a euphemistic way.

After all, Ike is one of the few people in Zaun who has a horse, so of course he can't just leave.

"Okay." Ike nodded, showing gratitude, "I will do my best to help you then."

The other two were a little confused, not sure what they were talking about, but didn't bother to ask.

"Then see you later." Mu Bai waved his hand and left with his two companions.

Watching the backs of the three of them drifting away, Ike suddenly thought of something.

He seems to have seen the girl with the blue double ponytails...

It was several years ago, when she also lived in Zaun, she was a very quiet girl...

Then she started talking to the gun and went crazy...

Is it Jinx... It looks a bit similar, but it doesn't seem to be the same person...

Forget it or not, probably the wrong person.

The door was gently closed, and everything that happened before was like a dream.

…………

"My crystal sensor... seems to be useless." Jess looked at the hammer angrily, "No matter how I adjust it, it points to the house just now."

"It's okay, I told you I know where Victor is."

Mu Bai took out the map, and put his finger on an inconspicuous landmark in the corner of the map.

"If nothing else happens, it's here—the dense fog boundary of Xinghuo Lane."

Xinghuo Lane, a place rarely visited by people.

It was surrounded by dense fog, and there was a death-like silence everywhere.

But tonight, it was destined to echo with the sound of guns and swords.

Chapter 58 Glorious Evolution

The fog was getting bigger and bigger.
