Chapter 419: 418, Reverse the flow of time?_1

Through the [Insight] spell, Su Yu could clearly see the attribute panel of this giant golden hourglass:

[Time-Space Manager (Main Plane, Evolutionary Plane)]

Level: ???

Profession: Time ???

Attributes: ???

Introduction: ??? Special envoy, primary mission is to balance the flow of time between the two planes.

….

That was all the information he could gather, where much of the text was overlaid by multiple layers of “???”.

Su Yu felt helpless and turned to look at Tina, Alyssa, and Morning Star in Alyssa’s arms.

The two of them and the cat had also used a similar [Insight Skill] spell to observe the golden hourglass, but they all shook their heads in confusion, apparently unable to discover any valuable information either.

Bernina raised her head, crossed her arms behind her back, looked up at the giant golden hourglass, and spoke slowly:

“Don’t be fooled by its appearance; it is indeed a living entity.”

“The spirit that resides within it is not man-made but self-evolved, possessing its own behavioral logic and the capability to think independently. In a sense, it has the characteristics that a living entity should possess and is not merely an object.”

Hearing Bernina’s words, Su Yu nodded thoughtfully.

He roughly understood her meaning. To put it simply – Robots are also people. As long as they can think independently or complete reproduction autonomously, they can also be called “living entities.”

Tina, Alyssa, and Morning Star didn’t understand what Bernina was saying at all. They were totally confused, showing full faces of admiring without comprehending.

Tina patted her slightly aching head, walked forward a few steps, slinging her arm around Bernina while trying to curry favor and said, “Ancestor, how do you plan to fix the mismatch of time flow between the two worlds?”

Hearing Tina’s words, both Su Yu and Alyssa quickly showed an anxious expression. They were also very concerned about this question.

Bernina smiled faintly and looked at the golden hourglass as she spoke slowly:

“Before talking about the patch, you need to clarify one thing. The flow of time in the game is currently 12 times that of the real world outside, and the flow of time is extraordinarily uneven. Sometimes it’s fast, sometimes it’s slow. You must have felt it, right?”

Alyssa and Tina looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Alyssa said seriously, “That’s true. The flow of time is indeed uneven, and the difference can be clearly felt.”

“If I’m with Nemesis or other adventurers from different worlds, time flows faster, and a day passes quickly. But if I’m alone, the day is very long. Even longer than the time when there were no adventurers from different worlds during my childhood!”

Tina also nodded, “Hmm, I have the same experience.”

When she was previously with Nemesis, time would pass especially quickly. Often, she didn’t have the chance to do many things (like playing chess strategy simulation) before daylight arrived.

Bernina calmly laughed and explained, “This is actually a kind of ‘compensation effect’, where time shortens when natives and adventurers from another world are together, and lengthens when they are apart. The entire world is currently in this dynamic equilibrium, which has already caused troubles for people in many regions.”

“Especially my avatar [Village Chief], I put him in a dark room one night, and when he came out the next morning, he felt as if he had been in there for a whole year…..”

Turning her head towards Su Yun and the others, who were stunned, Bernina continued, “Forget it, I won’t explain too much to you. You won’t understand anyway. Simply put, I want to reverse the flow of time and turn it upside down between the two worlds!”

“Reverse?” The trio of Su Yu exclaimed in unison.

This seemed like a big gamble! Could ‘time flow’ be easily drastically changed?

Furthermore, what would the world look like after it was reversed?

Su Yu quickly asked, “Madame Bernina, if the time flow between the two worlds is reversed, what impact will it have on the world?”

Tina and Alyssa also looked seriously at Bernina; even the Morning Star, who was on Alyssa’s shoulder, let out a “meow” and took out a bag of dried beef from the storage space.

Bernina’s words filled her cat life with great shock. She needed to gnaw on some dried beef to subdue her surprise.

Bernina laughed, ready to answer.

But upon seeing the dried beef in Morning Star’s paw, she took a step and snatched the dried beef.

Amidst the cat’s astonished gaze, she blissfully savored her meal while answering: “On the impact of time flow reversal on the world, we need to look at it from the perspective of two groups of people. First, the natives.”

Bernina turned her gaze to Alyssa and Tina, “After the reversal of time flow, the natives will no longer feel the fluctuating speed of time, but will return to the state before the arrival of the adventurers from other worlds, where time flows smoothly and constantly.”

Alyssa and Tina exchanged glances.

Alyssa nodded cautiously: “That sounds great.”

Bernina turned to look at Su Yu, “As for the second group, of course, it would be you adventurers from other worlds.”

“After the time flow is reversed, for every one hour you spend in the game world, only 5 minutes would have passed in real time. This means that your in-game time will be 12 times of your present!”

“Of course, after the reversal of the flow of time, your rewards from killing wild monsters in the game would also decrease 12 times. There will be no more levelling up dozens of times in a day.”

“But, with such ample time, you can spend more time understanding this world, treasure hunting, practicing skills, which would be more beneficial to improving your abilities.”

“Is that so?” Su Yu was deeply shocked.

If what Bernina said was true, this would be an earth-shaking event for the humans of Blue Star!

The reversal of time flow would significantly extend the time players spend in the game.

Although the game rewards are also decreasing simultaneously, just as Bernina had said, players can go on their own adventures in search of treasures, hone their skills. They will have much more time than before!

Take Su Yu as an example. He can spend more time learning spells and find those treasures that he knew existed in his previous life but didn’t have time to find!

More importantly, in order to deal with the Skuru people, many scientists and national leaders are working tirelessly, making every second count. They’d hate not to break a moment into two for use.

If the flow of time is reversed, they can enter the game to devise plans, make arrangements, and even bring some experimental projects into the game.

It is also a way to indirectly obtain a lot of precious time for mankind!

Upon understanding this, Su Yu was determined to find a way to help Bernina complete the time flow reversal.

The significance of this to mankind is too great!
