[Comprehensive] The painting style of time travel is wrong

It was not a certain wizard who first put forward the theory of "Duel of Wills", but the now-notorious Scientology. War Promotion Association, which is composed of mad scientists, weapon designers, retired steam knights and families of martyrs as the main members, the earliest The purpose of its establishment is to carry out wartime propaganda, boost public morale, crack down on failure speeches, etc. It is inconvenient for the head teacher of the divine religion to come forward.

But when the war progressed to No. 30 years, the sect has developed into the fourth sect in the divine religion. More than half of the frontline soldiers and church knights believe in this sect. It even once proposed that the god of science should be added with the priesthood of war. theory.

In their slogan "Science has no ethics, war has no bottom line, everything is for victory", this sect that has begun to go crazy has proposed countless or brainstorming, or whimsical, or appalling weapon concepts, and has carried out countless Experiments that Scientology has kept secret until now, some of these ideas have become the theoretical basis of modern scientific weapons or magic - and "duel of wills" is one of the crazy ideas proposed by ████.█████ one.

However, due to the limitations of the technological level at that time, this idea has always remained in the conception stage.

It wasn’t until Lord Slytherin unified the world again, and after the coalition government was established, Howard Philip Lovecraft, an academician of the Academy of Magic at the time, accidentally noticed this idea, and then began to cooperate with the Scientologist Freudian sect , Five years later, the prototype of the magic of "Duel of Wills" was researched.

Their intention was to take advantage of the peculiar nature of the duel of wills to create a "safe" way of fighting - Lovecraft wrote in his notes:

We can knock down kidnappers without injury without worrying about the safety of the hostages, we can end wars without worrying about infrastructure and civilian casualties, we can use this magic to create a peaceful world without violence!

According to the initial experimental results, in a world where the wills of both sides are intuitively reflected, a massacre can easily bring down thousands of ordinary people. In the thought reform experiment conducted with death row inmates, a felon with serious violent tendencies was killed After a failed duel, was succeeded by ████████████.

With this preliminary result, the coalition government also became highly interested in it, and the most famous scientists at that time, such as ███.████, ███.████ and ███.████ Both the wizard and the wizard participated in the research and development of this magic, but everything that followed seemed like a nightmare.

After more experiments, scholars quickly discovered a problem:

In this pure, idealistic world of will, the strength of will is not the key to victory, and "common sense" and "knowledge" are not advantages but obstacles—imagination and paranoia are actually the key to victory in a duel!

It is a pity that the researchers at that time did not stop the experiment in time after discovering this problem.

Immediately afterwards, the biggest magical accident in the history of the Coalition Government—possibly even in the history of mankind—happened:

On ██.████, a psychopath from ███ calling himself "Cthulhu" joined the experiment.

(intermediate data deleted)

In the accident that was vaguely named "Mountain of Madness" by internal information, Mount ███ was completely wiped out by continuous bombardment of apocalyptic magic that lasted for three consecutive days and nights, and now the area is still under 24-hour surveillance by the coalition government At any time, there are three Apocalypse-level wizards and three elite knights of the Religion who are always watching all the troubles on the ruins.

"Duel of the Wills" has since become the taboo of coalition government taboos

——Excerpt from "Magic Internal Reference. Forbidden Magic. Duel of Wills. Background Chapter" (readable only if the confidentiality level is five or higher) Author: Jie Luo

At the moment when the torrent of Godric's light hit, Salazar also responded immediately, and a burst of pure white replaced everything.

Instead of confronting thousands of powerful wizards head-on, and being targeted to death by the dueling masters who exploited the vampire's weaknesses, he chose another "fairer" tactic.

"Will decides..."

Heeding nothing, the whole world in Salazar's eyes changed, surrounded by thousands of astonished Godric's ghosts.

——The world began to darken rapidly. ——

But it's not that he or Godric used any kind of magic, but that he started to "attack".

In this idealistic world, what kind of attack is the strongest?

A weapon with the characteristic of "invincible"?Change terrain like moving hands and feet?Modifying all the laws of physics we know?

Wrong, in this idealistic world, you only need to be faster than the other party

——It was faster than the opponent's reaction, faster than the speed of the opponent's thinking, and faster than the limit of Planck time (Note 1)!

But now, Salazar is breaking countless powerlessness laws and energy limitations at an unimaginable speed in the physical world.

The world changed from pure white to light yellow, and then from hazy yellow to deep yellow. The light cones of events began to converge in the eyes, and the darkness of the vision began to gather from all around to the focus of the eyes.

Any known creature thinking at this speed will instantly burn the brain, and no known material can move intact for a second in this speed of movement.

This is in reality, even if it consumes the energy of dozens of suns, it cannot be achieved, and it is a spectacle that can only be seen when you first step into the "field of light".

However, this was far from enough, because he knew that Godric was doing the same thing.

Then, the world in his eyes fell into darkness.

——Luminosity——

Human vision, limited to the normal flow of time, is useless when you are in sync with the speed of light and none of the light enters your retina.

After this step, any attack based on physical form is meaningless.

In this terrifying field where even the laser light is relatively static, any attack is "static" the moment it appears, and there is no chance of touching the enemy at all.

He was already in the lead, and the moment he pulled the Godrics into a duel of wills, he was already ahead of the starting line, and as time went by, this advantage would become more and more obvious. The gap will grow wider -- but not enough yet.

As a duellist and a formidable opponent in the guild library for 1000 years, he never underestimated Godric's combat intelligence.

What's more, at this time Godric still has the absolute advantage in numbers, but he can't tolerate the slightest mistake and needs a bigger and more absolute advantage.

Next, is the realm beyond the speed of light.

In bursts of roaring, lightning spread in the dark clouds like a spider web.

15-year-old Severus Snape poked his head out of the window curiously, admiring the flashes of light cast from time to time in the billowing dark clouds. Today's thunder is extremely dense and frequent, and the night sky against the tyrannical power has a different kind of appearance. Such beauty.

But suddenly, his eyes became sharper, and he quickly went back into the room and picked up the wand placed by the bed.

Yes, he heard other sounds--the sound of dragging heavy objects under the cover of thunder.

Then, he carefully pushed his door open a gap and observed downstairs.

And there, a slightly slender figure was doing something at the door of his cellar.

--thief! ? ——

Snape sneered. Although he was not yet old enough to learn offensive magic, he had already learned several non-lethal magics thanks to his family heritage with a long history.

"Get out of my house..."

But the boy stopped in the middle of his words, because he recognized the identity of the figure.

"……Mother?"

"Severus!?"

The middle-aged woman in the uniform of the Black Magic Guild looked at her son in surprise, but soon, she closed her eyes and sighed.

"Mother?"

Snape looked at his mother who rushed forward and hugged him tightly in her arms, feeling a little at a loss for a while.

"Severus, please listen quietly to what I say next."

The witch hugged her son and whispered in his ear:

"First of all, whether it is the original five adults or the sages who our family swore allegiance to thousands of years ago, they are all very, very great people. No matter what happens, please believe them."

"Mother, what happened?"

The boy asked in a panic.

"And... I love you guys!

Whether it's you, my proudest son or your bastard alcoholic father, I love you, but it's because I love you that I have to leave you.

I have already completed the divorce agreement through some relationships, and it is hung on the shoe cabinet at the door...

I don't ask for your understanding—I just hope that no matter what you hear about me in the future, you won't look down on me..."

The witch did not answer his son's question, but handed a square pendant to his son, and said solemnly:

"Finally...please keep this safe, no matter what happens, even if it costs you your life, please keep it safe, can you swear to me?"

"I swear."

Even with just a light touch, the boy could feel the unbelievably powerful various unknown magics carried by the oddly shaped pendant.

"Very well... my child, then goodbye..."

Seeing that the boy kept the pendant properly, the witch raised her wand violently.

"Passed out!"

"3 minutes behind schedule."

When the witch came outside the house with red eyes, some of the twenty or so people in the group were already waiting impatiently:

"If Dumbledore hadn't held me back, I would have rushed in to support you."

"Excuse me, Mr. Riddle."

The witch bowed her head and apologized with a strong nasal voice:

"There was a little delay for a while."

"Alright, let's hurry up!"

A strong old man stopped the two from continuing their meaningless conversation:

"Whether Lord Godric succeeds or not, we need to prevent the Hogwarts low-orbit battleship from orbiting Chang'an City!

——This world has already had a war between gods and wizards, and there is no need for another war between the East and the West! "

"Check the equipment, after 15 seconds the apparition will start, the target is currently in the sky above Persia, at an altitude of 1800!

There are likely to be Knights of the Imperial Guard of the War Promotion Association on the battleship. Although they have been hiding in the dark for a long time, they are still powerful, everyone must be careful! . "

After the old man finished speaking, everyone raised their arms and started looking at their watches:

"Remember, we only have 10 minutes. The Order of the Phoenix team and the Death Eater team of the guild's special operations department are all ready. The countdown begins! 5, 4..."
