Chapter 690 Worldlines

rustle……

Liu Ping walked forward along the secret path dimmed by candlelight.

This time, he didn't intend to stay.

The goblin's technique is very useful, while it is still within this hour, go as far as possible to the depths of this bronze cage.

"Strange, that female voice hasn't sounded since entering here." Andrea said.

"It's a little strange..."

Liu Ping slowed down his pace.

In the passage in front of him, several void thorns lined up, blocking the way.

This thing can't move at all, and I don't know where its roots are.

The only way is-

Liu Ping said softly, "You can't see me."

As soon as the voice fell, he disappeared from the spot and appeared behind several rows of void thorns.

——Successfully passed the level.

He was about to continue walking forward when a floating thread suddenly appeared in the void.

"What is this?" Liu Ping wondered.

Ms. Mystery suddenly said: "It's amazing, there is a world line before the nightmare came here."

"World line?" Liu Ping asked.

I saw that world line was floating like in water, emitting a flickering light.

Ms. Mystery said: "Have you heard of the concept of a holographic universe?"

"I know some things like quantum entanglement, but I don't know much about technology." Liu Ping said.

"The life-like bodies in the world have their own characteristics, and they form a complete universe with each other. The world line is the transmission method that allows the life-like bodies in each world to communicate with each other according to the rules of the big universe." Ms. Mystery said.

"Can't sentient beings use it?" Liu Ping asked.

"Only world lifeforms can use it." Ms. Mystery said.

The long glowing thread seemed to have sensed Liu Ping, and slowly floated towards him.

"Can I refuse?" Liu Ping asked.

"Of course you can—but you seem to have no choice right now," Ms. Mystery said.

Liu Ping looked forward.

At the end of the secret road is a dead end.

No way out.

Only this world line.

"I hate being so involuntary."

Liu Ping sighed, stretched out his fingers, and lightly touched the long flickering thread.

Almost instantly—

The thread pulled suddenly, leading him to disappear from the spot.

Blink of an eye.

Liu Ping fell to the ground and looked around vigilantly.

Here is a small room, the floor is full of dead bones, and there are several void thorns on the wall.

An old man was nailed to the wall by a thorn of the void, unable to move, and looked extremely weak.

"Be careful, time has changed." Ms. Mystery said.

"Is the time here different from outside?" Liu Ping asked.

"It's different, the time outside is destroyed, and this is the time-space line that was imprisoned back then, so you don't know which era you are in—it's really a cleverly designed cage." Ms. Mystery said with emotion.

Liu Ping looked towards the wall.

"help me."

the old man groaned.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the tentacles of the Void Thorn made a "sizzling, sizzling" sound, and began to extract something from his body.

The old man immediately shut up.

A line of small words appeared above his head:
"World-like lifeform."

It's the same kind.

Liu Ping looked down, and saw lines of small characters jumping out of the bones on the ground:

"The bones of the gods."

From this point of view, the gods in the old man's hand were almost dead, and he was nailed to the wall in the end.

But why didn't the thorn of the void eat him directly?

It seems that this old man also has a way to suppress the bottom of the box.

"How can I save you?" Liu Ping asked.

The old man struggled to open his mouth and spit out a card.

I saw two people back to back painted on the card, which was constantly rotating.

"Hahaha! I finally got someone of the same kind!"

"You deserve it!"

Enduring the pain in his body, the old man laughed wildly.

The card turned into a ray of light, which immediately connected the old man with Liu Ping.

The two turned around.

Liu Ping hit the wall all of a sudden, and the whole wall shook.

But the old man stood at Liu Ping's original position.

This is the power of that card!
As soon as the old man landed, he jumped up and rushed to the door of the room, just about to step out——

puff!
A soft sound.

The old man lowered his head slowly.

A thorn of void pierced his chest, pulling him back.

"No! Why! I obviously broke free!"

The old man grabbed the door frame desperately, and reluctantly looked back.

I saw Liu Ping standing behind him——

Those thorns in the void seemed to be unable to see him, and let him go directly, piercing his body one by one.

"It's a pity, if you don't do this, I plan to help you." Liu Ping sighed.

The huge force made the old man no longer able to grasp the door frame, and was fixed to the wall again.

"Help me—I'm sorry just now, I was too impatient."

the old man begged.

"Tell me what's going on with you." Liu Ping asked.

"I came here to hunt for treasure. I was accidentally caught by these damned monsters. You must save me. I have countless treasures as reward!" the old man said.

lie.

Liu Ping shook his head, he really didn't want to deal with this old man again.

I don't know how long this guy has been trapped, but he still has the world line, cards that exchange space positions, and he can even stay alive forever.

Full of lies.

If one is not careful, he will shoot again.

It will be tiring to carry such a fellow.

Just let him stay here.

Liu Ping opened the door and walked out.

The moment the door closed, the old man's desperate roar was immediately isolated in the room.

Liu Ping looked to both sides of the corridor.

It's all dead end.

On this road, there is only such a prison cell, nothing else.

There are a few flickering world lines floating in the corridor.

Liu Ping ignored those world lines, went straight to the end of the corridor, pressed his hand on the wall, trying to activate "You can't see me".

But a line of burning small characters appeared in the void:
"The conditions are not met, the current skill cannot be activated."

Unable to start.

Is there something solid behind this bronze wall?
Liu Ping walked to the other end of the corridor and pressed his hand on it.

——Still unable to activate.

He jumped lightly, stuck to the ceiling, and tapped the bronze wall with his hand.

Judging from the muffled voice, it's probably not a wall anymore, but there is no gap at all.

Is it possible to leave only the world line?

Liu Ping fell down and looked at those floating world lines.

"Ma'am, in previous eras... did lifelike bodies in the world use this kind of thread?" Liu Ping asked.

"It is a connection in the universe, a naturally generated clue, and the world's lifeforms can use it to directly travel through countless times to meet other people of the same kind that were originally out of reach." Ms. Mystery said.

"This will put myself in danger - who would use it easily." Liu Ping shrugged.

"The laws of the previous era existed. You can use divination and other predictive methods, or even directly use the laws to identify the objects connected by the world line." Ms. Mystery said.

"It doesn't work now." Liu Ping said.

"That's right, all the laws are dead." Ms. Mystery said.

Liu Ping looked at the world lines one by one.

In order to get out of here, I can only pick one at random now.

He stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on a world line.

The time line suddenly emitted a blazing light, tugging at him like lightning, and disappeared from the corridor all at once.

The void opens.

Liu Ping fell down quietly.

I saw here is another bronze corridor.

There are four humanoid beings standing around him——

They all appear in human form, but are in fact all world-like life forms.

"Be careful, the time flow has changed again. We don't know what time this corridor is in." Ms. Mystery whispered.

Liu Ping nodded slightly, and glanced towards the end of the corridor.

There is a door there.

Finally saw the door!

He retracted his gaze and looked at the other existences.

"Ha, here comes another one of the same kind." A man with two heads said.

"Let me count, there are five of the same kind in total, almost." A strong man with a horse's lower body and a human upper body said.

Others also responded.

"Everyone, what are you gathering here for?" Liu Ping asked.

Everyone fell silent, all looking at him with strange eyes.

"Didn't you use your foresight ability to see it before you came?" A woman in a long skirt asked curiously.

The ability to foresee class...

The laws are dead, and I come from a dream, what can I see?
But this cannot be said.

Ms. Mystery suddenly said: "Tell them, you are shrouded in luck today, so you don't bother to do divination."

Liu Ping smiled and said, "I'm very lucky today, so I'm too lazy to do divination."

Everyone was stunned.

"Fortunately, it is a rare law of fate. It is also the luck of our entire team to be enveloped by it." The centaur laughed loudly.

Everyone showed a relaxed look, and no longer stared at Liu Ping with prudent eyes.

The two-headed man has already begun to explain to Liu Ping:

"I found a bronze cage. Its casting technology surpassed the civilization level of my era, so I guess there must be some secret hidden in it."

"Maybe it's treasure," said his other head.

"In short," the woman said, "he activated the mission call line, and any world life-like body that enters this cage will see his world line and come to explore together."

"I see." Liu Ping nodded.

"Although everyone comes from different eras, since we have all come to this place, let's work together. After all, this place is not easy at first sight." A middle-aged man in a black robe said.

"Let me tell you first, I am from the Holy Spring Era, and I am good at hand-to-hand combat." Remy Martin said.

"I come from the era of witchcraft, and I am good at spells." The black-robed man said.

"I'm from the Era of Falling Falls, and I like to play some curses." The two-headed human said.

"The Age of Artifacts, like that horse, is good at melee combat." The woman in the long skirt said.

Liu Ping moved his mouth, but felt a bit uncomfortable to tell his background.

"The end of the era is a big secret. If you can't tell them, just tell them that you are from the prehistoric era." Ms. Mystery whispered.

"I come from the prehistoric era, and I am good at some weird arts, but who has a knife? I walked in a hurry and didn't bring any weapons." Liu Ping said.

The crowd was speechless.

"You didn't even bring any storage?" the woman in the long skirt asked.

"Sorry, I really didn't bring it." Liu Ping said apologetically.

A thick and simple dark yellow machete was thrown in front of Liu Ping.

"Lend it to you, and return it to me after the exploration is over." The two-headed human said.

Liu Ping held the knife.

Two lines of burning small characters suddenly appeared:

"You got the Blade of Fantasy."

"This knife cannot be unsheathed, you will use your mind to condense your body and the blade to attack."

Liu Ping held the saber down.

suddenly.

A phantom of him flew out, slashing continuously in the air, and slashing sharp blade light towards the surroundings.

"Interesting, thanks." Liu Ping said.

"You're welcome, I just hope your luck can bring me some good luck." The two-headed man said with a deep smile.

We all walked to the end of the corridor together.

Centaur stepped forward and kicked open the door.

Swah——

Between lightning and flint, a giant hand made of countless void thorns reached into the door and grabbed him out.

"Hahaha, it's just you?"

The centaur roared wildly, attacking the giant hand with all its strength.

There was a shock in the corridor, and an impact suddenly erupted, throwing several people out one after another.

Everyone was still in the air, so they could see the surrounding environment clearly.

Here is a bronze hall.

In the main hall, a huge monster made of countless void thorns was putting the centaur into its mouth and chewing slowly.

"Void Thorn Mother!"

The woman in the long skirt lost her voice.

Immediately she was about to fly towards the corridor from which she had come.

But that piece of wall had already become extremely smooth, and the previous door and corridor could not be seen at all.
