After the other party finished speaking, Jiang Zhou's mouth grew again.

"Understood, understood, sorry..."

Jiang Zhou, whose ban was lifted, couldn't help but nodded and apologized.

The other party was not angry at all, but pointed at the star mark in the sky and said:

"A long time ago, there was one of the most ancient beings in the highest heaven. He stretched out his hand as if he wanted to pick up something from the lower world, and his action opened this crack."

"A long time ago?"

Jiang Zhou asked doubtfully.

He thought that it didn't take long, and it would only take less than a day for him to dive.

"The upper and lower bounds have different definitions of time. Your perception of time at the physical level is too rough. The further down you go, or according to you, the shallower the depth, the closer the passage of time is.

When it stagnates, the efficiency becomes lower. During the time I have been talking to you, I have already iterated five versions."

The other party replied.

…

The almost mocking explanation made Jiang Zhou not know what he should reply for a moment.

This time it was the other party who spoke:

"Those things you wrote before..."

As she spoke, Jiang Zhou's "ice wall" that she had roughly written reappeared on Jiang Zhou's body, the lead-gray translucent shield.

"Although it is simple, why is the idea used so close to the original?"

Jiang Zhou roughly understood what the other party meant.

To the other party, he probably looked like an orangutan holding a stick. It was just that he, the orangutan, had cut the stick in his hand into something like an AK47.

This makes the other party feel strange.

But Jiang Zhou didn't know how to answer.

There's no way you can say that the guy whose name you're not even allowed to say is your own creation, right?

"In the base reality, uh, I mean the physical layer, there are remnants of similar technology."

In the end, Jiang Zhou chose to lie.

"The idea of ​​imitating the first generation is still too forced for you, whose lives are as short as Bytebugs."

The other party didn't seem to have any doubts, but said so.

Although he didn’t know what Bytebug was, Jiang Zhou continued to lie:

"People in the lower world regard it as a game or a challenge. They can gain fun in the process."

He said this because he recalled that in his childhood, someone happily built a 32-bit virtual machine on a certain pixel game using the most basic logic valve.

But this time, the other party was silent.

"I can't understand...or is this what we call fun?

"In order to satisfy the pleasure, its importance even exceeds survival itself?"

After a long while, the other party asked.

The other party probably misunderstood that Jiang Zhou would rather die than write the "Ice Wall" in a way that is too inefficient for humans, just to get the so-called "fun".

But Jiang Zhou wanted to say that he was actually the only one who knew how to do this. But for humans in this era, he simply didn’t know the more efficient and advanced programming methods.

"It is indeed a human characteristic to give up existence itself for other reasons."

Jiang Zhou answered in a roundabout way without involving himself.

Then, Jiang Zhou raised his head and glanced at the sky and said:

"I would like to ask, madam, can I go back from here again?"

This is the issue that Jiang Zhou is most concerned about right now.

"You cannot climb the chasm on your own strength."

The other party answered directly and directly.

Unable to rely on one's own strength, that is to say...

"Then please, can you take me up there? If I can pay the price."

Jiang Zhou continued to ask.

"I can't bring you up either. Just like the oldest being in the highest heaven floating up will destroy the structure, if my existence floats up, it will also destroy the structure of the lower world. Depth 7 is already my limit."

From what she meant, it seemed like she also came up from a lower level?

Before Jiang Zhou could think more, the other party continued:

"But I can help you open the 'road' to your rise."

Jiang Zhou held his breath.

"How to open it?"

he asked.

"For this, you need to know my name.

"My name is Hecate, the goddess of the moon who rules all intersections, ghosts and curses, the second oldest person under the highest heaven, and the candidate for the seat of the moon god.

"I can open a path back for you, but after you return to the physical layer, you also need to serve me."

Note: All the gods in the article are the original gods in Greek mythology, Chaos (Chaos), Gaia (Earth), Tartarus (Hell), Eros (Love and Sexual Desire), Erebus (Netherworld), and Nick.

Si (night), Corolos (time).

It was born from the egg of the wind. It is also said that Chaos was born from Chloros, which symbolizes time. There are also some Zeus mystics who believe that Zeus is the origin of everything.
