Chapter 28 Trapped

Christina, who had completed the preparation work, started to explode all the magic missiles all the way. It felt like a twelve-tube close-defense gun was placed on the top of the plow truck in charge. The ammunition was fired so fast that it was impossible to observe with the naked eye. At least with my dynamic vision, what I saw was a light curtain connected into. There was no connection gap in front of me. It felt like a magic missile followed by a magic missile was spraying out without any gap at all. Moreover, because Christina's rainbow jet was actually not a single shot of magic missiles in front of me, but a number of magic missiles were generated at the same time in a large area near me. So in fact, although the number of magic missiles was large, they would not collide in the air.

The effect of the terrifying magic missiles spraying rainstorm is even more exaggerated than the carpet bombing of the American famous box bomber queue. The zombies in the passage ahead have no room for dodging, and can only be bombarded by one magic missile after another in the rainstorm of magic missiles.

As the magic missiles on Christina's side began to eject, the mixed formation of Death Guard and Kirin Warrior below also pushed the car forward desperately. Although the ground was full of corpses, the weight of the plow truck nearly eight tons and the shovel in front were enough to cut any obstacle into slices and easily crush it.

With all the zombies in front of us being knocked down, the plow truck here almost ran as fast as the wind. The many god of death guards and Kirin warriors and my magic pet pushed the plow truck with all their might. Even because they were afraid that they could not keep up with Christina's cleaning speed, the four plow trucks were running a little out of balance. On the way, there were constant collisions and scratches between the plow trucks and the plow trucks or between the plow trucks and the walls. As a result, the four cars were running and sparks splashed everywhere, and it felt like they would be overturned at any time.

Although this kind of rushing looks scary, you have to admit that the speed brought by this method is indeed quite satisfactory.

Christina finally held on for half an hour before she could use up her magic power and stopped. In this process, our plow truck pushed forward for eight kilometers. Half an hour and eight kilometers. Of course, this speed is very slow on the vehicle. Electric bicycles can run at a speed of more than 20 kilometers per hour. These eight hours and eight kilometers are converted into only sixteen kilometers per hour. It is faster than ordinary people, but it is definitely not as fast as most vehicles. However, we are not in track and field competitions. We are attacking with a large number of enemies. In history, no unit can maintain this speed in front of such crazy enemies. After all, as long as normal people are not as terrifying as these zombies, they have no idea what fear is!

"Huh. I really can't hold on." Christina said holding her forehead when she was lifted from the plow. When she got down, it was all my magic pets who helped her because she was too tired. The headaches caused by excessive use of magic have caused her current situation, and even her own walking became a problem. Fortunately, I have no shortage of manpower, so I just found a few Kirin warriors to come out to build a stretcher and lifted Christina down.

After Christina got it done, and with the hard work before, we were actually about ten kilometers away from the starting point. Such a long distance is already very long for a passage, but we still haven't seen the end of this passage here, which is definitely quite amazing news. Not to mention the zombie group that fills the passage, the length of this passage alone is already very abnormal. This is not a small tunnel. The passage is twenty meters wide and seven or eight meters high, surrounded by stone walls, and the ground is already on the top. The passage of this scale is actually more than ten kilometers long, and the project volume is really scary.

Of course, Zero is a game. Even if you want to build a 10,000-kilometer-long channel here, it is just a question and withdrawal by the main system slightly modifying the parameters. However, although such a channel in Zero is very simple, this game has always paid great attention to rationality. In other words, if an underground channel of more than ten kilometers long is unlikely to be built in reality, then such a place is unlikely to appear in the game. Of course, such a channel can actually be built in reality. After all, the technological level in reality is

It is well developed enough, and with the help of a large number of construction machinery, it is normal to build a cross-sea tunnel of more than ten kilometers in a few years. However, this is the magic world. Although magic is more convenient than technology in a sense, the mage is not a construction worker. People will not come to you to build a tunnel specifically. Therefore, even if you have the ability to build such a channel, it is quite abnormal to appear in the game world. And abnormal things are generally not set up, unless there is a reasonable explanation for this abnormality.

The current situation is that there must be some reason for this channel to be so long, and as long as you know this reason, its "long" should not be a strange thing.

I really want to know what the reason is, but I really can't collect any information when I was stuck here, so I finally decided to use the investigation method to investigate the situation here.

Although this passage is very long, I have a magic pet who is very suitable for doing this kind of thing. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Christina's chance to take over the job with gold coins, I directly summoned the dart and assigned him to the front to help us detect the situation ahead. At least we need to know how long this passage is.

Originally, this was just a very simple reconnaissance mission, but the result of this reconnaissance made us thoroughly listen to the previous opportunity to advance.

The special ability of darts is called - the speed of light movement. Of course, this is the theoretical value, which means that darts actually cannot reach that speed in most cases. The place in front of you is full of zombies, so darts must not be able to pass through the ground. All he can do is step on the heads of those zombies and run forward. As for the problem of being bitten... there is no need to worry about that. With the speed of light movement of darts, the enemy actually passed by when he saw him. It would be meaningless to make any reaction at this time, so it is impossible to catch darts. However, zombies have their heads not on the ground after all. Stepping on these guys' heads will still affect their speed.

However, even if the movement speed was affected by the zombies, the actual movement speed of the dart was still above 290,000 kilometers per second. This speed could definitely scare many people to death. At least no one dared to say that he ran fast in front of the dart. However, after I asked the dart to go out to explore the way, he returned to me after five minutes.

In the past, I never asked the darts to explore the way for more than one minute, because even when I was conducting a carpet-style search, the speed of the darts was enough to go through every corner in a very short time. However, this time, the non-standard actually set a record for five minutes, and after I came back, I also reported an amazing result.

"What? You don't see the end?"

This was not what I asked, but what Zhenhong roared. In fact, I was about to roar if I didn't roar. At the speed of the dart, I was about to roar. At the speed of the dart, more than 290,000 kilometers per second, one ran back and forth for five minutes but couldn't see where the end of the passage was. This was definitely not because the passage was too long, but definitely caused by other reasons, because it was impossible for someone to build a straight passage that was more than 40,000 kilometers long, which was many times larger than the diameter of the earth. If this length was available, this passage would inevitably become an astronomical wonder and could be seen directly in space. After all, if a straight passage that was so many times longer than the diameter of the earth, it would definitely be like a chopstick in the big fruit of the earth when looking at it in the sky would definitely be like a chopstick inserted into the big fruit of the earth. However, in fact, we all know that such a thing is absolutely impossible. Let's not talk about whether this kind of building can be built, even if it is really possible, then who built it? Why did they build such a brainless passage?

So, this passage is definitely not as long as more than 40 million kilometers. It must be a problem with its length, and the most reasonable explanation is...

"We were hit by the illusion?" Christina lowered her head and said in a low voice. Although her tone was not very certain, we also felt that there was no possibility except this. No matter what we thought, a passage that was more than 40 million kilometers long was impossible, so the answer was that we were hit by the illusion and other things. In fact, these were our illusions.

Now I think it's really thanks to me that I asked the darts to take a look at the situation ahead, otherwise we would just kill all the way, even if we were busy until this time of tomorrow, we wouldn't expect to find an exit. But by that time, we would probably never get out again.

"We must have been illusioned." I just knew that there was something wrong with this passage and I stopped preparing the ultimate move, so I went down to join the discussion. Now our plow cart line has stopped completely, because it is meaningless to continue moving forward. We cannot push the plow cart for more than 40 million kilometers, let alone zombies everywhere here, even if this is a straight ice slide that allows us to sit and slide down without moving. The fastest here is my magic pet flying bird. And even at the speed of the bird, it is more than 40 million.

Kilometers also mean that it needs to use its maximum cruise speed, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, and more than four years of continuous flight day and night before it can reach its end. However, these are all theoretical data. The data just now was calculated based on the maximum cruise speed of the bird ten times the speed of sound, but in fact, the bird can only last for a few hours at this speed, and it is impossible to fly for four years in a row. Besides, even if the bird can fly for four years, can we do a mission for four years? So, the way to leave is definitely not enough to run along the passage.

Since running away is useless, we need to discuss it carefully now.

After the gold coins came down, the plow carts stopped moving forward, just defending on the spot to prevent us from being disturbed. The four of us called all of our magic pets with good intelligence, and we all started to discuss together. However, after half an hour of discussion, we still got only one result - this is the environment.

"If this is an environment, how can we get out?" Zhenhong asked.

"There are many ways to get out of the illusion, but it needs to be decided according to the situation." Emmenis said: "I was a goddess of illusion before, but I didn't feel any problem with the situation here. So, even if this is an illusion, it is a very special illusion. At least I can't feel any difference at all."

"If this is an environment that even a illusion goddess like Emmenis cannot sense, does that mean we can't get out?" Jin Jin asked.

I shook my head and said, "The way to go out must exist. There will be no dead ends in the mission. If you can't get over it, it only means that you haven't found a way or your strength is not enough. There must be a way to go out here."

Christina suddenly asked, "Would we try to dig holes in the wall? Maybe the passage is infinitely long, but the exterior wall of this passage can be easily dug out?"

To be honest, I have thought of this question before. But it doesn’t feel that it’s that simple, but now I can’t find any solution, so I nodded with a try-and-see attitude: “It’s worth a try, it won’t take long.”

It really doesn't take any time to dig a hole or something. First, let Zhenhong use violence to rush up and down the walls and ground around the passage a few times to shake all the large stone slabs into shattered stones. Then the next step is to let Xiaolongnu use gravity to blow the shattered stones away. Then we saw the situation outside the rock passage. However, this result shocked us.

"Damn it! What's going on?"

After the outer wall of the passage built by the rock was smashed open, we saw not a new outer passage, nor a soil, nor of course, nor magma, but... void. This passage seemed to be built in space. After breaking through the outer wall of the passage, it was directly a dark void world outside. You can even see the stars in the distance, and some huge stars can also be seen in the nearby areas. However, although it looks large, it is actually very far away. It is only because the stars are very large.

It can be said that the situation outside this passage has completely destroyed our normal understanding ability, a passage built in space. Such an existence is really shocking!

"This shouldn't be really space, right?" Zhenhong asked looking outside.

Christina stood behind me and said, "Impossible. The gravity here is still normal, and there is no air leakage after we penetrated the passage. It seems that there is no vacuum environment outside. The stars are probably illusions such as projections, but there is more weirdness than here, so I don't recommend going out."

"No, we need to go out and take a look." As I said, I stood directly at the point where the entrance of the passage was penetrated and penetrated and took a look. My whole upper body was protruded out, but there was no difference between the feeling outside and the passage inside. The air still exists, the gravity is also there, and the direction has not changed. However, we are indeed empty, because I turned eternity into a stick several hundred meters long and pulled around and didn't touch anything. In other words, even if this place is the environment, the substantial structure outside is at least several hundred meters away from us.

Although I didn't see anything, I didn't give up. Instead, I pulled out the dragon tendon rope and handed it to Zhenhong to tie it and then jumped out. The advantage of this is that I can pull myself back with the rope at any time, and there is air outside, so my wings can still be used. It won't really happen if the wings cannot be used in space.

After jumping out of the channel, I was ready to fall down immediately. Because I had sensed the existence of gravity outside before, I knew I would fall down, but in fact, after I really jumped out, I realized that the situation was slightly different from what I imagined.

Gravity does exist, but the gravity here is only within one meter of the channel. This is why I could sense gravity when I stretched my head out before. However, after actually exceeding this range, there is no gravity range. Fortunately, although there is no gravity outside, it is not a vacuum. On the contrary, not only has air in this place, but it seems that the oxygen content is quite high. I feel that the air here is even much better than the channel. After all, the channel is full of zombies, so it would be strange if it smells good.

Trying to fly a short distance away, feeling that my wings were dancing too slowly, I simply summoned the bird and rushed forward. The bird uses jet power, and there is oxygen here, so the flight is not restricted. Of course, I dare not let the bird fly too fast, because I don’t know what the situation was before. What if it is really a huge illusion, what if we fly well and hit the outer wall? So, I always keep the bird at a speed that is much faster than me, but in fact it is not fast for the bird. Of course, slowing down is not the main way, and I also turned eternal into a dozen

A kilometer-long thin stick. I hold the center of the stick myself so that I don’t have to worry about balance. Although the length has increased, the eternal weight will not change significantly, so the stick does not affect the flying of the birds. I hold the stick like this. Let the stick keep the vertical way, that is, the direction of our flight, so that there is still a few kilometers long stick in front of us. If there is an obstacle in front, the eternal change stick should be the first to hit the outer wall, and then I will feel it, and then let the birds turn quickly to avoid the stupid thing of hitting themselves to death.

After I had this insurance strategy, I felt relieved and boldly let the birds explore forward. As a result, we still didn't encounter any obstacles after we flew to the passage behind. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to create such a large space, so even if I continued to fly forward, I probably wouldn't be able to get out.

Since flying horizontally is useless, it means that the exit is not in this direction, so I immediately asked the bird to take me back. Since I handed over the end of the dragon tendon rope to Zhenhong to grab it, when we went back, we just had to fly back along the rope line. Even if we can't see where the passage is now.

The return process was very smooth. Following the pulling force generated by the retractor, we quickly and accurately returned to the gap in the position where I left before. Then Christina and the others' first reaction when they saw me was to ask me: "Have you found the exit?"

I shook my head helplessly and said, "I flew out at least several hundred kilometers, but the result was the same, there was nothing."

"That means the direction over there is incorrect?" Jin Jin asked.

"But if it's not outside, how should this passage be out?" Zhenhong asked.

Christina said next to her: "That's all that can be thought of. If it really doesn't work, I suggest you try a violent method, such as using a big move, or something, to see if the extreme destructive power can destroy this place. No matter how bad it is, it must be able to interfere with this illusion. Even if it can make the environment flash, it will be of great help to us."

I thought about it and felt that Christina's proposal was the only way to try it at the moment, so I finally conducted a big move experiment. The reason I did it was mainly because both Zhenhong and Christina had not recovered yet, and the explosive power of the gold coins was not good, so my big move was still more powerful. However, the result was no effect. My big move exhausted all my magic power. But the final effect was like setting off fireworks, and nothing was produced.

"It seems that there is something wrong with our thinking somewhere." Christina said: "This task is difficult even if it is hell, it cannot be difficult to be like this. Our strength is already very exaggerated compared to ordinary players. If even we cannot solve this environment, it will be a dead level that is absolutely unparalleled for ordinary players. The system will not set such level, so we must have missed something."

"The title is that we don't know what that is!" Zhenhong said helplessly.

"Do you have any other suggestions?" I looked at my magic pet and asked. Compared to other people's magic pets, my magic pets have good intelligence, and most of them can be used as consultants.

Not to mention, in this case, someone really made suggestions. "Master, I think you can try asking Goddess of Earth to help me." Jingjing said.

"Mother of Earth?" I looked at Jingjing in surprise. After thinking about it for a while, I felt that there was a certain possibility of getting help.

Although theoretically, the superior gods like Mother Earth should not interfere with our players' tasks, after all, they are actually a system rule in Zero, which is equivalent to a half GM. The possibility of such an existence helping is very low. However, because in fact, my personal relationship with Mother Earth is very good, of course, this may be due to my affinity attribute. Anyway, Mother Earth often provides me with some small-scale help. Of course, these helps have one common feature, that is, Mother Earth does not seem to do anything abnormal, or she does very little, but they are all key things and can completely turn the situation around.

In this situation, if I ask the Mother of Earth to help us directly break through the environment and get us out, the Mother of Earth will of course directly reject me without hesitation, and may even throw me out directly. However, if I change the way, for example, chat with the Mother of Earth and indirectly inquire about the actual situation of this place, I think the Mother of Earth will not be absolutely tight-lipped. At least I am sure she will tell me if this is really an illusion, so that we can also determine where to think about it when we leave this place.

After I figured it out, I didn't waste time. I talked to Christina and the others and opened the door to the earth and went in.

When I sent Pandora and Hades here to cultivate last time, I found that Mother Earth seemed to be in a good mood. This time, this time I came here, which means that Mother Earth is in a very good mood now. This is definitely a good news for me, but it is not as good as it is. Mother Earth is in a good mood, which means that she may relax restrictions on my requirements, and as long as Mother Earth restricts me a little less, the help she can provide will be very exaggerated.

"Mother of Earth, are you basking in the sun?" I greeted him like I encountered it. Of course. This method is actually very clumsy, because there is a one-way road inside the gate of Earth. I can't pass by here and meet the Mother of Earth, but I can only come in specially. So this way of greeting is like Brother Chu was making his first chat, but this method is actually the way I need, because in front of Mother of Earth, my strength is so weak that I can almost ignore. It's like being Einstein, Superman and a large group of outstanding politics in history

The family suddenly merges into one person. He has both strong individual strength and unparalleled wisdom. In front of such people, everyone's intelligence and physical strength are all fighting against the five scumbags, so instead of deliberately pretending to be sophisticated in front of him, it is better to be weak and shy just because pretending to be sophisticated and powerful. In the face of such super existence, you will only make you look extremely clumsy and not bring any actual favors. Instead, you will pretend to be shy and low-key. People may show more care for you from the perspective of caring for the weak and pitying the weak.

To put it bluntly, the Mother of Earth is actually like an adult with super intelligence in front of me, while I am only a child, and I am completely incomparable in terms of strength and mind. Therefore, at this time, I deliberately pretend to be slick and try hard to make people feel that I am an "adult", which will only arouse disgust, but it will be a little normal. Instead, they will use a "caring for children" mentality to be particularly tolerant of me.

Sure enough, as soon as I finished speaking, the Mother of Earth smiled and said, "You were pretending to be pitiful to me. I know you are in trouble outside. What? Do you want me to help?"

I deliberately scratched my head and smiled foolishly, and the Mother of Earth also glanced at me and poured myself a cup of tea and said, "The place you are in is not an illusion, so it is impossible for you to eliminate any illusion."

"What? That's not the environment?" I really couldn't hold back at this moment. If the Mother of Earth didn't joke with me, it wasn't the same environment. Then there was only one possibility... that thing really existed. However, a passage that was more than 40 million kilometers long. Let's not talk about how it appeared. Even if it appeared reasonably, how should we go through it? I won't mention the zombies there for now, even if it was a no-man's land? More than 40 million kilometers of no-man's land would be enough to trap anyone to death. "Then what... Mother of Earth, aren't you making me happy, right?"

"Do I look like a person who can be funny?" Mother Earth asked looking at me.

To be honest, although Mother Earth is the most amiable among all the gods, she is indeed not the kind of person who likes to joke, and this matter is not that funny.

"But if what you said is true, it means that the passage is at least 40 million kilometers long. Who can build such a passage? And how do we go through it? Even if my fastest magic pet takes us with us, it will take more than four years to complete this distance. This is still the case of no rest throughout the year and no resistance. But with the actual situation there, I am afraid that we may not have been to the other end in forty years!"

"Did I tell you that the passage is more than 40 million kilometers?" The Mother of Earth suddenly said, and I was suddenly stunned.

"You mean that it is indeed a real passage, but it is not actually more than 40 million kilometers. It just makes us feel that it seems to have no end for some reason?" I asked guessfully.

The Mother of Earth was in a good mood, so she didn't keep an accusation from me, and she directly expressed her true thoughts. "You actually entered a law space. This place is real, not an illusion."

"Law Space? What's it?"

"It is a small space with its own laws. The world laws in this space are different from those outside. They have their own set of rules. The space you enter is a channel, but this channel is actually only two thousand meters long."

"What? Just two thousand meters? Isn't it possible? We ran for more than ten kilometers inside but didn't come out!"

"I said, I won't joke with you. That passage is indeed only two thousand meters long. And its end and starting point are actually connected loops. Of course, I'm talking about loop connections at the spatial level, not forming a curved passage, so you feel that it is straight forward, but it is not."

"It's not right!" I wondered: "When I asked my demon pet to explore the way forward, he ran more than 40 million kilometers. If the passage was cycling, he should have caught up with us from behind after running two thousand meters?"

"This involves another rule of this space. In addition to the continuous and continuous connection in space, there is also axial change in time. That is to say, if your magic pet keeps forward, he will return to the starting point after two thousand meters. Although this position coincides with your position, it is different in time, that is, you overlap in space. However, it is staggered in time, so you will not see each other. Your magic pet keeps rushing forward, and finally it is equivalent to running to the later time point. After blocking him, he starts to return after finding that the channel has no end. At this time, he is actually making time go backwards. When he returns to the time point where you are and returns to that space point again, you will meet again."

I finally fully understand the characteristics of this passage from the explanation of Mother of Earth. In fact, this passage can be compared with a rotating staircase. Assuming that the height in the stairwell represents time, and the orientation represents absolute position. Then, when you are located on the east side of the third floor and the east side of the fourth floor, your location is actually the same, but the time is different. If a person continues to climb up the steps, he will eventually return to the east side, but at this time he may climb to the tenth floor, the eleventh floor or even higher. In this case, he is actually still in the stairwell and has not gone out, but the height is different.

This is how we are. We are constantly moving forward in that passage. Although we have completed two thousand meters one after another, we have never gone out and have been running forward in this closed time cycle, which means we have actually run a long time rather than a long journey.

Since I have figured out the principle, the following thing to solve is how to destroy this closed channel. However, before I could speak of the Mother of Earth, I directly said: "Don't ask me, although I know, I won't tell you how to get out. You know our rules, I won't break the rules. But with your IQ, I know so much, it shouldn't be difficult to get out, right?"

After thinking for a while, I bowed deeply to the Mother of Earth, and then said, "I understand. Thank you for your help. This time I saved our lives!"

"Okay, go and do it quickly, don't disturb me from basking in the sun."

After Mother Earth waved my hand, I turned around and ran out, and Christina and the others immediately surrounded me after seeing me.

"How is the situation? Have you asked?" Zhenhong asked impatiently.

I nodded, then shook my head again. Jin Jin asked anxiously from the side: "Are you nodding and shaking your head?"

"I said it, but it's not complete." I said directly: "Mother Earth talked about the situation in this place and told me the reasons and principles of the formation here, but she did not tell me how to break the deadlock, but let us think about it ourselves."

"Ah?" Zhenhong obviously felt hope was slim.

Christina didn't care much and asked directly: "Say everything you know first, let's listen to it."
Chapter completed!
