Frozen Wheel(13)
"Maybe they didn't look in front of you at all." Taisie said truthfully, "What they cut off was a period of 'original' time, and during that time, you were not there at all."
Is still had a tense face - this was really not a comfort to him.
He was still in the prayer room, just setting himself a soundproof barrier so that he could communicate with his companions without any scruples.
Ator's crying had already lowered, which made him feel relieved.
She probably saw everything, but since the visitor could even remove time, it would be no difficult for her to erase her memory and leave a phantom to fool her. So when Tes appeared in front of her for the first time, even she herself was
I don't know why she cried.
"This job is very rough," Taisie commented.
People who can do this undoubtedly have extremely powerful abilities. He remembers to eliminate traces of his past, but the way to eliminate it seems rough and casual, and very careless.
"Maybe I can find something," said Ice. "Since that the man actually left a 'track'... maybe I can find him... or her through these traces."
"Or 'it'." Tess said. She was not against Ice's plan, but she still reminded her: "Be careful and don't do anything random!"
A guy who he likes to do whatever he wants most to do is to let others not do anything, which inevitably makes Ice unable to help but curl her lips - no one sees it anyway.
He patiently continued to stay in the prayer room. This time, without Taisi's appearance, the little saint sat silently for a while, and someone came to tell him that the water had flowed from the mountains.
The rainbow-colored waterfall appeared again. Then more water flowed across the valley and poured into the entire basin faster and faster, and then earthquakes, and the gushing groundwater...
This time, Tes and the others did almost nothing, and they took the time to take a good rest. During this time, Tes also thought of a question that no one had answers: "If our time is actually both in reality and in this cycle,
So are the things we eat really eaten?”
"...at least we didn't starve to death?" the barbarian LeQion answered tentatively.
Tess gave him a big thumb, and without hesitation he ate all her favorites of the remaining food.
"Anyway, there will be another 'tomorrow'!" she said happily.
Nana expressed her extreme agreement with this.
After walking around the prayer room for several times, I didn't notice anything. Is, who was staring at the phantom left by the Source Stone, couldn't even look dizzy.
However, when the cry of despair sounded throughout the city, even Taisi couldn't make any jokes.
"Maybe you can try it next time, what happens if you freeze all the water...or at least raise the ice wall so that the water can't come in?" she said to Ice.
"Next time." Is replied.
His heart is probably not as soft and sensual as humans. The sound outside made him a little irritated, but he still calmly thought and judged which way could find the answer faster and solve the problem better.
.
He finally waited until Ato stumbled back to the prayer room and threw himself in front of the statue.
"Please..." She whispered, trying to calm herself down, but couldn't help sobbing.
"Please," she said, "let... let it stop, and let the people of this city and the city never suffer any disaster... Please, it, we, born of you, please do not... Please...
Don't, abandon us..."
Her slight voice was like broken ice crystals, making Is very uncomfortable.
For a moment he just wanted to strode over and tell her that there was no god here who would respond to any requests, picked her up and threw her out, threw it to her loyal followers, and asked them to take her away quickly...
Tell her that if she gave up her useless belief, perhaps at least some people would have a chance to escape, instead of being trapped in this city forever, experiencing despair and fear over and over again.
It's hard to believe, but he always has a way to make him believe that even if he can't do it, Tess and the others should be able to do it... and such facts are enough to make a little girl collapse, and the dilemma they face may be able to do it, too
Solve it here...
He thought a lot, but just stood there, watching the strange light flowing through the girl, and the phantom left by the source stone flashed for the last time, melting into the palm of the goddess's palm.
Looking at the familiar scene, he appeared in front of him again.
This time he didn't scold him anymore, but Nana still patted his shoulder comfortably - probably because his face was really ugly.
He found Taisi for the fourth time, and spent a longer time than before, telling the various attempts they made by "a few days". He heard Taisi's mouth open and close, and then open.
This is a very...unique move in her wonderful adventure career.
"But we can't 'solve' that girl," she said, "even if it was her last prayer that led to it."
What did Atour do wrong again? She was raised as a saint and believed in and expected the salvation of God so reasonably for her.
"It's not possible," said Is, "but we can solve the power she uses..."
He did not do anything last time, but he seriously took all the changes.
"That's not just the power of the source stone," he said.
The remaining phantoms of the source stone and the little remaining power are not enough to change the rules of time - even if it is just changing the time of this small city.
But, as the rosys believe, faith itself has power, and this city...the goddess of ice and snow who guards the city has this only faith for thousands of years.
Even though many people now have less religious beliefs and hundreds of thousands of refugees pouring into the city, many of them involuntarily pin their hopes on the god they didn't even know before.
When Ato said her last prayer, the brilliant light that surged in the statue of the goddess was the god who didn't know whether it really existed, and it was this one standing in the snow and ice that had thousands of people standing in the snow and ice.
The city of 2019 is all, and the last power.
"...So, this power, it cannot stop disaster, but it can change time?" Taiss asked, "Is it not right? Is it much more difficult to change time? Even you can stop this
There is a flood, but you can't change the rules of time."
The corners of Is' mouth twitched slightly. What does "even you do" mean? Ice is indeed his talented power, but it is very laborious to stop such a big flood!
But Tess was right. He could stop this natural disaster, but he could not change the time.
He suspected that this situation was related to the power of the source stone itself. But in any case, he had two ways to destroy the cycle of time, one was to solve the source of power that could lead to such a result, and the other was to prevent Aso.
The latter is undoubtedly simpler than the former, but when Is chose the former, no one opposed it.
Is's idea is also very simple. He would rather face a stronger force than face a little girl who would cry in tears.
Moreover, he felt that maybe he could solve the problem by just solving the residual power of the source stone.
"…What will happen to this city?" Arsey asked the same question as last time.
When the cycle of time is destroyed, will this city and hundreds of thousands of people in the city still exist?
"There are three possibilities." Northwe replied, "The first one, it will disappear like a illusion... Everything has happened and cannot be changed; the second one, it will return to the moment it was reset.
, And this time, we may be able to help; the third is the backlash of the destruction of the rules of time, coupled with the flood, the entire city will face a more terrible disaster, which will be wiped out in an instant... It may even be together with us
.”
The best result is undoubtedly the second, but no one can be sure whether there is a possibility of a third result.
Is, who originally thought this task was not difficult, instantly felt greater pressure.
"...You don't have to say it now." He said angrily.
Norway seemed to smile.
"You need to know all possible outcomes to make the right choice in an emergency," he said.
...What choice? When you find that no one can save him, should you run away by yourself? That is a choice he could never make - even if that might be the right one.
Tess punched Norwich's belly to show her disagreement: "You can think of something depressed, but don't say it!"
The beat was very light, after all, she was the only one who hurt the beat.
With the blessings of his companions, Is slipped back to the prayer room again.
Ator was still in the prayer room, but soon she would leave, and saw the rainbow waterfall that heralded disaster and destruction on the tower of the temple.
But she at least didn't cry anymore.
Is didn't want to alarm her, after all, he didn't have the ability to coax children like Tes. He floated silently in the air like a ghost, studying how to draw the afterimage of the source stone... and its power, and
The statue of the goddess is peeled off.
Perhaps because they were connected for too long, their powers were almost integrated, and some were still connected to the little saint.
The faint golden silk thread, like a spider web, reminded him of Tiana, the failed revenge of the Naden man, and the unexpected opportunity he got.
Find Ed's chance.
If Ed was here, he would probably be better at solving this problem than him. He was always more careful and better at calculating than him, and for a long time he relied on his own talents and inherited from his ancestors.
