I loaded the dream game

The elves that appeared in the past changed the entire human history of the Age of Gods.

"That was the first change in history." The Time Elf said softly.

The necrosis of the past has led to the collapse of the present.

In order to save the world on the verge of collapse, and also to prevent himself from dying along with the broken world, when there is no way back, no matter what is reasonable or moral, he must save the past.

So, did they succeed?

“It worked.”

Tokisaki Kurumi replied.

"At least judging from the results, it was successful."

Indeed, if it failed, then what Xia Zhi would see when he came to this world would not be peaceful and tranquil cities and forests, but a sea of ​​fire, right?

So the question is, with their limited power, how can they save the destroyed world from the invincible gods?

The answer is that Tokisaki Kurumi and the God Tree found a way together.

With the help of the power of the time elves, and with the spirit crystal of the target elves as the core and energy source, the sacred tree unfolded a barrier similar to a sea of ​​trees before the time of destruction, covering the entire four countries and everything including the heroes.

However, this alone is not enough.

The power of the sacred tree cannot affect the existence of the gods, and the barrier cannot prevent the invasion of the gods and Batik.

Therefore, in order to prevent the gods from destroying humanity and the world at that point in time, the sacred tree chose to completely cut out that period of time from history and hid it.

At the same time, this approach is equivalent to stripping away the influence of elves on human history and correcting "history" back on track.

"The stripped-off past becomes an independent space-time existence, and will reach its end at the end of 'time'. At the cost of this, the 'future' can continue to move forward..."

"..."

Listening to the girl's soft words, Xia Zhi finally understood why she said that the other elves were left in the past.

The stripped-away history, like a singularity, becomes an independent period of time.

No past, no future

Unable to move forward, nor able to return to the original direction.

Time continues to move forward, but for people in the "future", their existence in that intercepted time is equivalent to being left in the past forever.

"A singularity... well, if you want to describe it that way."

Tokisaki Kurumi tapped her chin lightly with her finger and did not refute the boy's statement.

It’s just a name anyway, so it doesn’t matter what you call me, right?

"Is this the reason you said that you weren't the one who saved the world at that time?" Xia Zhi recalled what Kuang San said at that time and asked her.

The girl's words were pretty much what he had expected at the time.

By stripping away the past and history, the destruction that has ever occurred is denied.

For this world, it is indeed true that only by relying on the power of the time elves and the blessing of the power of the gods can a great feat be achieved.

"Isn't it?" The elf girl tilted her head slightly.

After all, she wasn't the one making the sacrifice, was she?

"In my opinion, you provided a possibility to save all this, and your contribution should not be buried."

Xia Zhi said this and turned to look at the brave girl beside him.

Nogi Sonoko also nodded vigorously, affirming the boy's words.

"If it weren't for Sister Kuang San, we would have no chance to make up for it."

Although without this power, they would not have been likely to encounter the final disaster... However, that was their own fault and their own decision, and had nothing to do with the girl who tried her best to help them.

"Oh my, I'm very happy that you guys are so sure of my 'achievements'." Tokisaki Kurumi narrowed her eyes and said with a smile.

However, there was no trace of happiness in her words.

Maybe for her, this is not an achievement at all?

Xia Zhi shook his head and didn't ask any further questions about this matter.

He probably already knew most of the past... Although this development was quite surprising, that was not the point now.

There is another question in what Tokisaki Kurumi said just now.

The world today has been saved and changed by the girl, allowing the future to move forward.

And according to her, if there is more than one elf coming to this world, such rescue should have happened more than once.

If that is the case, why does she conclude that this world has no future now that it no longer faces the threat of the gods?

To this, Tokisaki Kurumi's answer is

"To use your words just now..."

She put away the smile on her face, looked into the boy's eyes, and said meaningfully:

"...We are now in the same 'singularity'."

.......

Chapter 958: The Main Quest Finally Begins

Is the current space and time in a singularity?

Xia Zhi was not very surprised to hear the girl's answer.

After all, the previous statement that "humanity has no future" combined with Kurumi's description of the singularity already gave me some premonition.

Therefore, Xia Zhi quickly noticed a contradiction in her words.

Leaving aside other things, according to what Kuang San said just now, if it is a normal process, and a period of time and space is cut out from history and hidden, the gods who cannot rely on the power of the time spirits should not be able to interfere with this period of time and space that is independent of the original time.

However, they had clearly just encountered the threat from the gods not long ago. Why was that?

"To be precise, it is a singularity that has been stripped away but has not yet been hidden." Tokisaki Kurumi added.

"The space-time barrier that was previously deployed covers all the history of the past."

“But the last time, the sacred tree no longer had enough power to deploy another barrier that spanned time.

Therefore, before it sensed that it was about to perish, it extended the time span of its last barrier to include the 'present' and extend it to the future."

With the girl's subsequent explanation, Xia Zhi gradually understood clearly what the sacred tree did in the end.

Simply put, the original sacred tree can only deploy a barrier covering the four countries on a three-dimensional spatial level to resist the attack from VERTEX on the side of the gods and the erosion of the sea of ​​fire.

But with the help of the power of the time elves, it is able to create a barrier that spans four-dimensional space and time.

The scope of the three-dimensional space remains unchanged, but there is an additional one-dimensional time axis.

In the previous rescues, this short timeline was completely covered by the past.

But now, with the weakening of the power of the sacred tree, it gradually no longer has enough strength to do the same thing.

However, previous destructions have also proved that as long as the gods are determined, humans will have no room for resistance.

No one can guarantee that the gods will not strike again.

The sacred tree, having lost its power, can no longer protect mankind, nor can it rewrite disasters in the same way. When the next doomsday comes, it will be the day of mankind's extinction.

Therefore, the sacred tree that favors humans, in the most recent deployment of the barrier, simply used up its last bit of strength to stretch the timeline of the barrier as long as possible, covering the past and present, and leaping into the future.

And a small program was left behind. When the hero failed completely and mankind was about to be completely destroyed by the gods, just like before, this history and the future were stripped from the original time and space and hidden together, completely getting rid of the invasion of the gods.

However, doing so would also mean that humanity would completely lose its future.

But at least during this time, they can spend the last beautiful and peaceful time.

This ending is not perfect, but it is the limit of what the sacred tree can do for humans in that situation.

...That's why Tokisaki Kurumi said that humans no longer have a future. Xia Zhi thought to himself.

"...This child clearly knew all these things, but she still chose to believe you."

Tokisaki Kurumi fixed her eyes on the brave girl next to Xia Zhi and said this.

Nogi Sonoko blinked and replied, "Because Sonoko didn't believe it wrong, right?"

Tokisaki Kurumi did not refute her words because there was no point in doing that.

The girl's words were more of a conviction from the heart than a judgment based on facts.

If that's the case, there's no need to refute... Girls won't reason with you on matters like this.

"Should I say, you are worthy of being called Mr. Xiazhi?"

She looked at Mio and Sonoko, sighed, and then looked at the boy again with a smile and continued:

"Now, you probably understand why I say the power of the Origin Spirit is indispensable."

Under the interruption of the four-dimensional barrier, this period of time and space has been stripped away. When time comes to the end, it can no longer move forward.

All human beings will be left in this period of time. The so-called future will no longer have anything to do with them.

Logically speaking, since the barrier has already taken shape, there is no future anyway, so there is no need to wait until the gods' full-scale attack to start the final process.

"The reason I didn't do that is because I still had a last bit of luck and hope."

Tokisaki Kurumi turned his gaze back to the silver-haired girl

“The creation of the four-dimensional barrier is the result of the combination of the power of the sacred tree and the spirits.

In principle, as long as we can use the power of the Origin Spirit, we can greatly extend the end of this period of time into the 'future'... In a way, it can be considered as creating a new world."

Only the original elves possess such power.

Fortunately (Li Zhaozhao), they did wait for her arrival before the end of time.

Although it is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure, there is no better way now, right?

“…So that’s how it is.”

Xia Zhi let out a long sigh.

...Is this the tone of this dream copy?

A moment of splendor, a fleeting miracle... The flower language of Yimi refers not only to heroes, but also to elves.

Just as he was thinking this, the long-silent dream game finally started to move.

Xia Zhi thought.
