Chapter 408

There is a relationship between the secret lock and the confinement room, which can be seen not only from the purpose of the confinement room. The effect of time reversal on the cell door and the confinement room are related to "time", and there can be no connection.

An Yizhi estimated that the only effect of the high-level needs of the alpha prison is "no casting". The time reversal on the prison door and the time acceleration in the confinement room are probably only side effects.

As for why there are such side effects

Since the precedent of finding epic items from the waolek underground palace, Ann asked Hella to learn more about the mystery lock, so that he could dismantle the core when he met the mystery lock in the future.

From the appearance of the prison fan lock, the layout of this fan lock is far less exquisite than that of vaolek. His effect is just similar to the slightly changed anti magic force field of super size. No matter mortals or guards are allowed to use magic. Even the most basic friend or foe identification can't be done. It can be seen that the arranger of this lost lock is far less clever than vaolek.

Secondly, a finger at the core used to arrange the mystery lock also vaguely guessed the point.

Vaolek's immortality mystery lock uses a double-sided staff, which has no prominent characteristics compared with the double-sided staff. The characteristic here refers to the increase of magic.

Some wands only increase the magic of a certain department, while others do not. The double-sided wand increases comprehensively. As long as the magic skills are improved, it is said that it does not have too prominent characteristics.

The mystery lock of alpha prison has obvious visible characteristics, that is, time.

Since the magic of the prisoners extracted from the alpha prison is not to maintain the mystery lock, their mystery lock must also use some kind of object as the core. An Yizhi estimated that this core object should be a strange thing related to time, and it is at least legendary!

Otherwise, the mislock can't have such a big side effect, that is, the energy responsible for the function is too large, and the circuit board of the mislock can't carry it.

Of course, knowing this will not help an Yizhi's main task of escaping from prison, except that he is very hot in his heart. Therefore, at present, he still suppresses the mood that he may get legendary items and keeps calm as much as possible to investigate the clues in the confinement room.

He took down all the dials and tried them. None of them could be damaged, and there was nothing that looked like a hint. He had to put them back intact.

More than 20 minutes have passed, and the dance light technique has been supplemented four or five times, but no clue has been found, which makes him a little impatient.

"My guess is right. There should be no clue..."

He habitually touched his chin and found that his beard seemed longer than before.

"I see."

He looked up and found that there seemed to be some wrinkles on his arm.

"Ringing the bell every 10 minutes means that the creatures in the confinement room will spend 10 years every 10 minutes."

The last time that prickly unlucky guy came out, he was old for decades because of this effect.

It's not a Warcraft that devours life, but let the prisoner's time be consumed at the rate of one minute equals one year, and finally die of old age.

An Yizhi was locked up for 60 minutes, that is to say, when he came out, it was equivalent to spending 60 years in it. At that time, an Yizhi would have become an old man in his 80s.

"I must hold on tight. I really close it for 60 minutes. Even if I can run out, I'm afraid I don't have strength."

Expect an old man in his 80s to escape from the tightly guarded alpha prison? Obviously impossible.

Having said that, the clue

Facing the anxiety of time and nothing, an Yizhi calmed down. Therefore, people are forced out. You can understand this anyway. If you think wrong, you can only say that you are dirty

"My clue now is that there is a pendulum with a large vertical clock that can be opened, and a pile of wall clocks that can be taken off the wall..."

He patted on the forehead:

"Lying trough, I didn't realize such a simple clue. What a fool"

Then search around, focusing on the size of the clock hanging on the wall.

The pendulum of the big clock has great power. It is placed in the box under the dial, which is about more than 30 cm wide. With other types of clocks that can be taken off, this meaning is very obvious!

Find a wall clock of the right size and put it in!

Whether the pendulum breaks the wall clock inserted or the clock card owner whose pendulum is inserted, there will be further clues and hints in either case.

When I just looked at the clocks and watches, I only noticed whether they could be smashed and whether their hands were consistent with the vertical clock. An Yizhi didn't pay attention to their size. This time, I remembered this clue and had to look for it one by one from the beginning.

The time is more than 30 minutes, that is, 30 years have passed. An Yizhi obviously felt a little sleepy. At the same time, his back waist was a little weak. What made him more upset was that his hair fell off a little.

Bald in his 50s? This is my future?

Fortunately, he knew that all this was simulated by the system, otherwise he was really depressed.

Finally, he found a square wall clock in an insignificant corner of the wall, which was exactly the same size as the lower part of the vertical clock.

"See if I guessed wrong."

When he put the wall clock in, he heard a few clicks, like the sound of the gear card owner, and the clock didn't swing.

"The pendulum doesn't move, but the pointer has no effect."

The second and minute hands still turned fast, and the bell rang once again in 10 minutes.

This time, an Yizhi felt more obvious than every time. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it. The palm was covered with gray hair, his hands and body were dry, and he could see senile spots occasionally. It seems that he has entered the 60 + elderly.

"Clue..... Clue......"

Standing for a long time made him feel very tired and had to sit on the ground.

At this time, he heard a sound like a stone sliding behind him. He thought it was the stone door that opened. He was startled. When he looked back, he found that it was the floor that opened.

Even if a thick layer of dust has accumulated on the original floor and scraped the ground three feet like an Yizhi... I mean, careful people will certainly not let go of the clues that may exist on the floor. He clearly remembers that there is no gap there. Now the floor is opened left and right, revealing a space that can accommodate one person.

"Is this... A glass jar?"

An Yizhi saw a half person high glass box in the underground cave, in which there was a green branch, a butterfly stopped on it, and mossy soil under the branch, which were sealed in a transparent glass box.

At first, he thought it was a highly simulated thing similar to a potted plant. Later, when he saw the butterfly fluttering its wings and flying, he realized that it was all real guys.

He tried to take the box out of the hole in the ground, but because he was too old and the glass box was too heavy, he tried twice to keep the glass box slightly off the ground.

There's something down there!

Moving the box a little, you can see a layer of light blue light under the box, which is very similar to the magic light, but he can't move it now, so he had to give up and began to carefully observe the butterflies inside the glass box.

This is a very beautiful butterfly. There is a layer of light blue phosphorescence on his wings. Every incitement will bring dots of light.

An Yizhi feels that this butterfly is very similar to the dream flash butterfly in reality, although this butterfly is more beautiful than the dream flash butterfly.

He saw the butterfly fly around the glass box twice, as if he wanted to go out, but he couldn't find the way, so he fell back to the branch. At this time, the butterfly suddenly became stiff and plunged into the soil under the branches. The insect corpse decomposed and decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

An Yizhi wondered what this meant, and saw a light yellow egg under the leaves of the branch. A few seconds later, the egg decomposed into caterpillars, and it began to eat a lot of leaves.

This picture is very similar to the ultrafast camera in the animal world. After a few breaths, it eats all the leaves. Then find a fork and spin silk on it to pupate.

After a few more breaths, the leaves grew again, the insect pupa squirmed, and a beautiful butterfly broke out of its cocoon.

Its fate is the same as that of the butterfly before. It turns around in the air and falls on the branches. Once again, its body freezes, falls into the soil and decays, and so on.

"What's the hint? It means that time flows very fast...? no, no, symbolism itself is very useful."

In mystics, symbolism is very important. Many rituals and so-called spells need symbolism.

For example, in ancient times, people offered sacrifices to living people because they believed that the appearance of gods was similar to that of humans. Sacrificing with similar things could get the love of gods.

Later, in the era of civilization, people changed the means of sacrifice to other animals to symbolize human beings, which is an embodiment of symbolism.

In the magic world, symbolism is equally important. For example, why does a mage need to pinch the seal when casting a spell? This is not a meaningless action, which contains some symbolic meaning.

The discovery of something symbolizing time in a time-related mystery lock itself represents a certain meaning.

An Yizhi guessed that the series of arrangements in the confinement room were designed to prevent the time acceleration effect of the confinement room from getting out of control. The arranger used clocks and butterflies symbolizing "life" and "death" to suppress the overly powerful maze core in order to control it.

This is a good idea. Although the decorator of the lost lock is far worse than vaolek in terms of layout, at least others do a good job in dealing with the problem.

Put aside the problems related to the maze lock first. An Yizhi knows that even if he destroys the whole confinement room, it is impossible to stop the effect of the maze lock. At best, it only makes the side effect of "time acceleration" more widespread.

However, it's not nothing to realize the role of the glass box with butterflies. Since it represents a certain symbolism, will destroying it lead to some unknown changes?

He looked carefully at the glass box and found a small door that could be opened at the top of one side. Although there was a small lock on it, he could not help but open it easily with magic tricks and wooden thorns.

It's just that the wood thorn is completely in the lock hole because it has been used many times. If he wants to unlock the lock in the future, he must find something else.

When an Yi pointed to open the glass box, it was just another time to report the hour. His fingertips grew old quickly, and his fingernails became extremely gray. He almost felt tired sitting.

At the same time, a butterfly just broke out of its cocoon flew out of the open gap. He flew around an Yizhi with a little light blue starlight, as if thanking him.

An Yi pointed out his left hand full of folds and old skin. The butterfly skillfully stopped in the palm of his hand. Immediately, bursts of light blue ripples burst out from the butterfly. The butterfly gradually shrunk in the corrugated light and turned into a light blue gem the size of a fingernail and the shape of a butterfly.

Effect: the effect of immune time, lasting for one hour.

Description: a gift from a creature liberated from the eternal cycle of life and death.

At the same time, an Yizhi saw that the hands of the surrounding clock were rotating rapidly. This time, it was not only the minute hand and the second hand, but also the hour hand. The speed was so fast that he couldn't see clearly.

The floor closed again, and the wall clock stuck in the pendulum suddenly flew back to its original position. Only one click seemed to come from the brain, and there was a calm around. It seemed that nothing had happened, except for the butterfly gem in the palm of an Yi's hand and the system prompt.
