Chapter 19 Past Reflections
Chapter 19 Past Reflections
Indeed, Lu Shi's perception of "failed New Year's Eve" is rooted in the past, not the present.
Therefore, even with all sorts of detection methods, the Metaphysics Society was unable to find out Lu Shi's actual situation.
Because in their timeline, Lu Shi was truly a blank slate from the very beginning.
The alienation caused by the failure to cross over into the new year is entirely concentrated in the dimension of 'time'.
This also leads to the conclusion that the depth of a failed New Year's Eve celebration is terrifying, at least exceeding level three.
"So... is this an accident, or some kind of special fate or cause and effect?" The moment Lu Shi saw the brand appear, he could vaguely look down on his former 'sacrifice', his own flesh and blood father, from a time perspective.
Because of Lu Yaoyao's words, the fear that had been suppressed in the other party's heart was brought up again.
In theory, Lu Shi could pull his father back into the simulated horror at this moment.
As long as great terror arises in the other party's mind, the cognitive imprint of the same origin can be gathered into one's own ability imprint, thus completing it to a certain extent.
At that time, although I wouldn't be able to evolve directly from the 'juvenile form' to the 'complete form', I would at least be able to enter the 'growing form'.
but……
Lu stopped what he was doing.
The more sophisticated the simulated terror ritual, the more time-consuming and elaborate it becomes.
Lu Shi still can't determine what level his failure to cross over into the new year counts. What if the commotion is too great and attracts some real experts?
The waters of this world are much deeper than we imagine.
Lu Shi did not intend to act rashly until he had a deeper understanding of metaphysics.
In the current situation, it would be better to indirectly remind the offering, as is the case now, so that it may occasionally feel fear.
These factors can slightly reinforce the negative impression of a failed New Year's Eve celebration.
"But did 2256 do this simply to vent its anger, or does it know something?" Lu Shi frowned.
2256 was originally just a level one abnormal entity with an erosion level that was difficult to break through ten.
Even those without clairvoyance would find it difficult to observe.
However, on May 6th, the situation suddenly intensified, and the underlying reason for this remains a mystery to the analysis department, which has yet to provide a reasonable explanation.
Lu Shi wasn't surprised that the other party used a steel coil truck, but the collision with Lu Yaoyao tonight was not normal.
Lu Shi pondered for a moment, and the time quickly came to 11:59 a.m.
As the clock strikes, a new day begins once again.
However, this time Lu Shi did not rush to use the time coins to enter a new day.
Instead, we began to focus on observing the 6th and 7th.
These past two days have been like a 'video' with a progress bar.
Lu Shi is in it; you can drag back and forth, pause, fast forward, and slow down, but you just can't change the content inside.
Everything followed the trajectory that Lu Shi had before.
Lu Shi appeared on the morning of the 6th at the spot where he was having breakfast.
But there was no one around, only various things moving automatically along their tracks.
Lu Shi frowned slightly at this moment, as if he had noticed something, and then the world in front of him seemed to be doubled.
The content of the double images is basically the same, except that in the operation of the breakfast shops, one is steaming rice noodle rolls for himself, and the other is cooking wontons for himself.
This game was restarted on this day, so the final version is used as the main body, and the death scene appears as a ghost image.
Lu Shi had only just realized this ability.
The father's renewed fear fueled the failure to celebrate the New Year.
The branding was strengthened, giving Lu Shi more room to maneuver.
When the two versions of the double image appeared, Lu Shi began to compare the details of the phenomenon.
Although no other person or 2256 is involved in these details, the phenomena they caused have not disappeared.
People are able to receive more information than they imagine, but most of the time, most of the information is considered 'unimportant' and therefore ignored.
At this moment, Lu Shi wanted to find clues among these overlooked pieces of information.
The same applies to the 7th.
There were three double images and four versions on this day.
Lu Shi looked at these versions over and over again. Although he did not find any traces or clues, he gained some insights into the use of the Bloodshed Calamity.
In modern life, deadly dangers lurk everywhere. Various phenomena, when combined reasonably, can instantly create a situation that can kill people.
Lu Shi realized his advantage.
If he has a need, he can start over and use this "prophetic" state to trigger various phenomena in life.
If possible, he might even be able to utilize time correction power to amplify the bloodshed.
"I can't find any trace. My intuition is still not good enough..." Lu Shi looked through it a few more times and then came to a conclusion.
The sudden strengthening of 2256 should be a change in spiritual perception, but Lu Shi's spiritual perception was not strong enough before, so he naturally did not notice the phenomenon behind it at all.
Lu Shi pondered for a moment, and then a time coin appeared in his hand.
Place it on your thumb and flick it.
The time coin flew up with a "ping" and disappeared into time.
Lu Shi stood up and, before the phenomenon caused by 2256 appeared, forcibly walked towards the trash can.
With this movement, Lu Shi could feel a terrifying resistance.
Those past times outside of Lu Shi's trajectory are as if blocked by silt; no matter how hard Lu Shi tries to move forward, he can hardly get any closer.
The power of the Time Coin appeared at this moment, and the 'unknown area' fluctuated slightly, seemingly softening a bit.
Lu Shi immediately squeezed forward a little, just this much.
Even things he hadn't been aware of in the past, he acquired at this time.
At the moment 2256 appeared, Lu Shi, now empowered by the Bloodshed Calamity, sensed a peculiar danger.
This sensation was fleeting and then disappeared.
Lu Shi was also pushed back by the resistance.
"As expected, it was the intervention of other special forces that caused the anomaly in 2256." Lu Shi confirmed his guess, and at the same time, a sense of joy seemed to rise in his heart.
Previously, no matter how many time coins Lu Shi used, he was unable to broaden his past life trajectory.
His past sphere of activity was effectively locked down.
However, this restriction has now been slightly relaxed.
This is not only because the fear of the 'father' filled in a trace of imprint, but also because Lu Shi has mastered other metaphysics, and his understanding and control of metaphysics have been further improved.
In this way, Lu Shi was able to confirm that as long as he continued, all the existing restrictions would be lifted one by one.
At that time, he will be able to travel freely through time, going back and forth on the timeline.
He will truly become a being of time, becoming a god in the state of a four-dimensional being!
Lu Shi suppressed his emotions and tossed out a time coin.
A new day has begun, and he has arrived!
