Brave World

An Yizhi can feel that there is no light source around, just pitch black.

After all, even if you wear a blindfold, you can still feel a little light through your eyelids, and there is no light source in the confinement room.

With a turn of the tongue, a wooden thorn the size of a toothpick was turned out from under the tongue.

Hold it. An Yizhi put his hands tied around his hips and turned in front of him.

Feeling the location of the handcuff lock hole, An Yizhi slowly rubbed the cold handcuffs and inserted the wooden thorn into the lock hole.

“Magic Trick”

With a slight click, the handcuffs were easily lifted. He took off his blindfold and moved his muscles and bones, but he accidentally hit the bruised Place, another burst of contorts one’s face in agony, the pain simulation of system is back again.

“Unsurprisingly, it turned out to be dark”

The surrounding area can be said to be invisible. An Yizhi turned his stiff neck and took out the magic from the interlayer of the single clothes. Crystal, use it to cast spells to avoid the lock effect:

“Dancing Lights!”

Originally, Dancing Lights is a skill on the broken page of the chapter of energy shaping, but energy shaping The broken pages of the chapter have special abilities that can be learned directly through multiple uses. The commonly used skill An Yizhi can be used without the chapter of energy shaping.

Thanks to this, otherwise An Yizhi has no way of lighting. The light technique is in the book of eternal light, and the evil eye that sees through the darkness is Misdra’s refining cheat draft, both of which need to be held in order to be used.

Four basketball-sized white light sources suddenly appeared, An Yizhi let them stick to the four corners of the room, not to mention that every delicate hair that could be photographed in the confinement room was completely shown, at least the sight was not a problem.

It seems that no one came in to clean for a long time, and a thick layer of dust accumulated on the ground. The location of the vent was not found, or even the location of the exit.

This is a pure stone structure of about ten square meters. Whether it is the floor or the wall and ceiling, it looks like it was pulled out of a whole rock, without even a gap.

The most eye-catching thing is to count the large number of clocks hanging on the wall. Just in the darkness, the sound An Yizhi heard was from them.

These clocks have different shapes, some are common circles, some are weird polygons, and there are similar electronic watches with old vertical clocks.

“The demonic beast that swallows lifespan? It really is a lie”

He murmured, walking towards the most conspicuous vertical clock:

“But The effect is probably true, otherwise that many prisoners will not talk about the discoloration, which causes the loss of lifespan because of these clocks?”

He knocked on the glass dial shell of the big clock, and there is no visible on it. The minute and second hands, with only one hour hand, are now at 6 o’clock, and the next moment turns to 7 o’clock.

“When the guy who escorted me told the person in charge of the confinement room that he was detained for 60 minutes, that person seemed surprised. It seemed that the longer I stay in the confinement room, the more disadvantaged it would be for me… Wait, that What is it?”

An Yizhi looked at the dial and seemed to find something. He stretched out his hand to draw a ball of light from the corner of the wall and let it clearly illuminate the dial.

“It’s not that there is no minute hand and second hand, but it turns too fast, I can’t see it?”

Under the refraction of strong light, I can slightly see the metal minute hand and second hand refraction The light coming out, the two hands are like propellers, turning very fast. I don’t pay attention to An Yizhi and think that there is only the hour hand.

“What does it mean that the minute and second hands turn so fast?”

Slightly reminisce what Nitya said, the prisoner who had been to the confinement room came back like a dozen years old. It is not difficult to see here that the meaning of these hands is likely to be that the lifespan of the person in the confinement room is passing fast.

After thinking about it for a while, An Yizhi raised his eyes and looked at the dial again. This is because its pointer has changed from 7 to 8.

“so that’s how it is, the hour hand represents one minute of normal time, that is, is one hour when the dial turns five times in 12 periods?”

This should be a timing tool to let the player know how long the outside door will be open. If you want to explore anything, you must hurry up before the guard opens the door.

60 minutes to say more, not more, less, less, An Yizhi has no time to think slowly, instead of standing and thinking, it is better to take a look.

He tried to reach out and open the dial of the vertical clock. After all, there is a small handle on the side. It seems that the vertical clock has the intention to open the dial from the beginning of its design. Need someone to manually dial the hands to adjust the time.

“en? The card owner? No, is it not allowed to open?”

The glass cover on the outside of the dial is completely motionless. An Yizhi hesitated, stepped back and punched it.

Similarly, there is no gain except for the pain in the hands.

“Well, brute force cracking won’t work.”

He shook his sore fingers and turned his attention to the pendulum under the clock.

This kind of ancient mechanical clock needs to rely on the pendulum below to provide power, and the pointer is driven by a gear mechanism. The pendulum is usually made of light-transmitting materials such as glass, and the operation of the mechanical clock can be clearly seen.

An Yizhi found a wooden mechanism on the side of the big vertical clock, pressed it hard, and a light sound came from the glass window at the pendulum.

“The dial can鈥檛 be opened, it can be opened here…Speaking of which, at the speed of the minute and second hands, shouldn鈥檛 the pendulum swing like a wind? It鈥檚 normal speed.”

Reach out to grab the metal rod of the pendulum. As long as the mechanical clock stops the pendulum, the whole clock will stop.

However, the power to move the pendulum is surprisingly great. As soon as An Yizhi grabbed the metal rod, he felt like he caught a mad elephant, and couldn’t hold it at all!

“What does this mean? You can’t resist the torrent of time?”

He was still in the mood to complain. He carefully observed the space for the pendulum, and found no clues, so he had to stand Get up and leave it alone for now.

It must be a hint to be able to open it here, but I don鈥檛 understand what it is, he needs more clues.

At this time, the hour hand of the vertical clock is pointing to 10, and the clock and other clocks make a sound similar to the hour, especially the clock in front of him. The sound is deafening, and it hits 10 To stop.

“It didn’t sound before, but it sounded at 10 o’clock. Is this a clue?”

He was a little puzzled, and habitually touched his chin, feeling a little pierced.

“Beard? Didn’t I shave this morning?”

I hurriedly went online in the morning. Maybe I forgot. An Yizhi didn’t care, and turned around and looked towards other watches.

The clocks on the wall are large and small, the largest is the size of a manhole cover, and the smallest is about the size of an ashtray. He tried to take the clock off the wall. He thought it was unlikely to succeed. t expect takes off a round watch without any effort.

This wall clock is very similar to a battery-powered electronic watch, because An Yizhi did not find any winding place. The entire dial and the watch case were almost fuse together. He tried to smash it on the ground. .

Don’t worry about the noise problem. Such a completely enclosed space plus a thick stone gate, as long as there is no big explosion, this sound is not audible at all.

However, this wall clock is also the same as the big vertical clock. No matter how An Yizhi hits it, it still stands tall and does not even leave scratches.

“Well, you have no clues”

To be on the safe side, so as not to let the time guard open the door and find that the clock is in the wrong position, An Yizhi had to hang him back again.

It is worth mentioning that these clocks are all pasted to the wall by some kind of force. There are no nails in the original position where the watch can be hung. As long as they are placed against the wall, they will follow It sticks firmly to the wall like a magnet.

Looking at the clocks ticking in the room, An Yizhi scratched his head.

I didn’t find the clue, but I was stumped by the puzzle.

“Could it be that I guessed wrong? The confinement room has nothing to do with the locks?”

He was a little skeptical and whispered, and immediately this conclusion was overturned by himself.

“No, it must be related. The function of the confinement room is too strange.”

The confinement room is the small dark room we often call. This thing is used in prisons and the army to punish disobedient soldiers and prisoners.

Isn鈥檛 it just being kept in a room alone? What is at worst.

All human fears will be amplified in a completely dark and silent environment.

Humans observe the world through their five senses. In the small black room, apart from touch and smell, people who are locked in cannot feel any other information. Initially, people will talk to themselves or sing. The method comes from amusement, but it doesn鈥檛 work after a few hours, and the brain begins to recall unconsciously, especially some horrible and painful memories. If it takes longer, people will be anxious, violent, and even have hallucinations. .

This is undoubtedly a very cruel psychological punishment. Anyone who is disobedient only needs to be locked in a small dark room for two days, and after he comes out, he will have an irrepressible fear of it.

This kind of punishment that does not hurt the human body but only attacks the heart has been popular for some time, but because it is extremely psychologically devastating, it is easy to drive a normal person crazy, and then it is abolished.

It鈥檚 not surprising that there are confinement rooms in the prison. This thing is very effective against vicious prisoners. It can be regarded as a good way to manage prisoners and establish power.

However, the confinement room in the Austrian law prison actually has the special effect of “swallowing lifespan”. At first glance, it looks very awkward, but it is not necessary at all.

Whether it鈥檚 the magic world or the real world, the structure of mortals is the same. The real world will go crazy if it is locked in a small black room for a long time. The same is true in the magic world. If it鈥檚 just to manage disobedient stingers, prison On the one hand, there is no need to give the confinement room the special effect of “swallowing lifespan”. It requires a lot of magic power to maintain, and it can easily cause the death of the prisoner.

If the’confinement room’ is equal to the’death penalty room’ and the purpose is to kill the prisoner, then it will be superfluous. The magic power to maintain such special effects is very high if you think about it with your butt, and it is so troublesome to kill. , Input and output are not proportional.

Analyzed from two aspects, the existence of the confinement room with the special effect of “swallowing life” is very abnormal, giving An Yizhi a strange feeling.

I feel that the confinement room is not deliberately set up by the Austrian law prison, but has to be set up!

Maybe it is a side effect of the jail lock, or it may be a design flaw of the jail lock, so the prison simply converted it into a confinement room for waste utilization.

This is the most plausible reason, and it is also the reason why An Yizhi would rather run in after a beating.

Whether it is a defect or a side effect of the jail lock, at least this place is the closest to the jail lock, and it will also show the easiest place to find. He feels that he can find the possibility of closing the jail lock here .

However, judging from the current situation, he still needs to continue to explore carefully.
