Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 607: Past and future
After Lu Ye stopped completely, the small figure was completely out of sight by Lin Sanjiu in almost two seconds.
"Well done, she looks like she's about to cry!" the Queen of Soul exclaimed gleefully. "I think she seems to have turned around and gone back to that competition area. Remember her position. I'll come over after the competition is over..."
"Don't wear her!" Lin Sanjiu shouted while breathing heavily. Sweat was everywhere on her forehead and face, which stung her eyes. What she did was a bit sorry for the little girl, and she had to at least secretly ensure her safety; while running forward with all her strength, she told the queen, "Watch some time!" The toy rocket was put on.
I don’t know if it’s just an imitation, but [Children’s Toy Rocket] looks like a white plastic shell. After putting it on the body and exposing the head, you can see the plastic shell in front of the chin. There are three knobs to adjust the speed.
"Wait!" The Queen of Soul, who was originally carried on her shoulders, was almost squeezed by the rocket. She hurriedly pulled the plastic shell and lay back on Lin Sanjiu's back. Fortunately, a soul is lighter than a human being. If there is too much, Lin Sanjiu will force it to trip over: "Okay, speed up, I think that thing is going to catch up soon!"
Having looked at the direction of the runway ahead, Lin Sanjiu responded, closed her eyes and turned to the highest gear, counting a few seconds in her mind.
...She had never experienced such a painful second.
When that second ended, Lin Sanjiu's face turned crooked.
She didn't know it herself, but her face was already full of tears - the exposed skin was completely numb, and Lin Sanjiu's slanted and involuntary facial expression made it look like she had suffered a stroke; After several minutes, she finally regained her composure, blinked her eyes, and realized through tears that her eyelids had just been blown open.
The Queen of Soul's appearance was even worse - when Lin Sanjiu accelerated, she was about to open her mouth to speak. After this second passed, the mouth of the human skin bag was suddenly blown open, all the way to the back of the ears, exposing almost all the inside. The piece of dried meat was about to be dried. When he wanted to speak again, he realized that he couldn't say a word.
Fortunately, the suffering of one person and one insect was not in vain.
These 100 kilometers helped them leave all the players behind, not to mention the "time" that followed closely; but the leading players who had just taken the lead should not be underestimated - just rest After a while, they appeared in Lin Sanjiu's field of vision again and were approaching her quickly.
Lin Sanjiu rubbed his face, glanced at the endless runway in front of him, and cursed secretly.
"This race is endless? Where is the end point?" She said as she turned on the lowest gear, lifted her feet again, and ran forward with the help of the thrust of the rocket - the speed of the lowest gear could only give She acts as a bonus.
It was okay to stop just now. When he stopped for a while and then ran forward, Lin Sanjiu felt that his bones were so painful that they were almost broken. It seemed that every time he took a step, bone fragments were leaking down his heels. Go out, sprinkle it all over the floor, and start running with every step of your heart -
The Queen of Soul suddenly let out a high-pitched, incomprehensible cry.
"What?" Lin Sanjiu spent a lot of effort before asking this question.
The big meat bug had been dried by the wind just now. After losing its mucus, the meat was unable to move freely. After screaming indiscriminately for a while, it finally squeezed out another human word.
"Hey, someone is calling you from behind," its voice still sounded a little strange, "The first place just now is waving to you from behind."
Lin Sanjiu looked back and saw a small black figure in the distance waving at her. She weighed the distance between herself and time in her mind, turned off the rocket and slowed down - the first place was worthy of being the first place. Not long after she slowed down, the man caught up with her and called to her from a distance. There was a sound.
"Hi," Player No. 17, who has been leading the entire time, is a young man with brown skin; his popcorn-like hair is blowing in the air, and he is also wearing a pair of big windproof glasses. He looks like he has been wearing it for a long time. Prepare. In comparison, Lin Sanjiu, with red eyes and tears on his face, looked much more embarrassed - "Are you a newcomer?" the young man said with a smile.
"Yes..."
Contestant No. 17 gasped, reached out and erased a pattern on the back of his hand, and his speed suddenly slowed down. "I guess you are a newcomer! Don't use this plastic rocket anymore..."
"Why?" Lin Sanjiu frowned.
"The farther away the first place is from time, the faster time accelerates." Contestant No. 17 breathed heavily, like a broken bellows, "You just made such a sudden move, and the rest of the time immediately went crazy. , and swallowed up several contestants at once."
Lin Sanjiu's complexion suddenly turned pale.
"Cough, cough..." Contestant No. 17 gasped and waved his hand, "Don't take it to heart. Those who are swallowed are last. They will die sooner or later. It's just that they will die sooner or later. It’s just a minute difference...I’m just here to tell you, stop rushing to the front recklessly.”
Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything for a long time, her face still looked very ugly - even though she knew that the other party was telling the truth. She glanced at the shadow of the contestant behind her, but it was too far away, and she didn't know if the bearded man who ran beside her at first was still alive. After a while, she asked in a hoarse voice: "Then... then Why were you running so fast just now? If you were slower..."
"Make no mistake," the young man interrupted her rudely, "Even if I run against time, it will still accelerate!"
Lin Sanjiu was startled.
She tried her best to suppress the guilt that was wrapping around her like a vine, and quickly asked: "What on earth was that time? What happened to the people who were touched by it?"
"As the name suggests, it is time."
"What?"
"If time is a dimension independent of this world, then every second you spend actually contains a 'you'." Player No. 17 has obviously explained this to countless people. When it happened, he blurted out without even thinking about it: "Is it difficult to understand? Think of time as a line outside the length, width and height... Have you thought about it? Go a little further on this line. , that is, the next second or the next day..."
"I've thought about it," Lin Sanjiu had to agree.
Contestant No. 17 then continued to explain while running: "If time is a separate line, then any point intercepted from this line should contain everything that happened at that time... You Do you understand? For example, if you fell down three minutes ago, if you take a look at that time point, you will be in a state of falling to the ground... At that time point, you will never stand up. , because it’s the next point in time for you to stand up.”
Lin Sanjiu vaguely understood what he meant, and asked: "What does this have to do with the competition?"
"Hey, haven't you figured it out yet? As soon as you get on this track, you will have a timeline that belongs to you! Starting from the start, every point on your timeline has turned into a The entity—that piece of light and shadow—at every point in time, and you within that point in time, is collapsing toward your current location at an ever-increasing speed."
Probably because Lin Sanjiu didn’t say anything for a long time, or because his thoughts were knotted, contestant No. 17 added: "When the past you catch up with the present you, all the time points will merge... Oh, Yes, it will look like a human train...it turns out you have already seen it."
Lin Sanjiu still didn't quite understand, but she decided to leave it until after the game to think about it - she glanced at the other players who were gradually catching up behind her, and shouted to No. 17: "How do you know so much? ”
"As long as you survive a game and go to Stonewall to check the details of the game, it will tell you everything." After being passed by another thin woman, the brown-skinned young man took out something from nowhere. A pen began to draw a pattern on the back of his hand - while he was drawing, he also took a look at Lin Sanjiu's rocket shell, as if he was using its shape as a reference.
"Do you know where the end point is?" Seeing that he seemed to be running seriously again, Lin Sanjiu asked hurriedly: "I won't be caught up by time now, but I have to know that I still have to run. How long!"
"You won't be caught up by time?" Contestant No. 17 suddenly paused, raised his head and smiled, "By the way, I almost forgot that you are a newcomer... You have exceeded the chasing range of time, so it's nothing. Next. There is still half of the race. If you can continue to run past time in the next half of the race, then you can truly survive."
"What do you mean?"
"Look~IndoMTL.com~ The young man pointed forward, "Did you see the players participating in the shot put competition in the distance? ”
Lin Sanjiu narrowed his eyes and looked around, then nodded. The group of players was currently just a shadow the size of an ant on the horizon. She couldn't tell that they were shot put players at all.
"Come on, they are not just throwing the shot put far, their target is us." The young man said softly, almost calmly, and added, "Next, there will be archery competitions and shooting competitions. Swimming competition... Let's put it this way, all sports in the Olympics influence and compete with each other."
Lin Sanjiu was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She almost thought he was joking - the young man quickly drew a cartoon rocket on his hand and nodded: "I'm going to the front. Come on! Time has passed. I’ll catch up soon.”
"Wait——"
She had just shouted two words when Contestant No. 17 waved her hand, accelerated her feet suddenly, and disappeared straight ahead - only his voice was still faintly floating in the air: "Remember, don't Be the first again!"
