In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality

"Time Guardian? What a disgusting name."

In the distance, Max's voice penetrated the chaotic battlefield.

With the memory of thousands of variants, Max can easily identify the equipment of these agents and the threat posed by these equipment.

Moreover, time guards are one level higher than ordinary agents, and their equipment level is much higher than that of time agents.

At this moment, three guards holding time batons were rushing out from the portal that appeared under the ruins, and behind them, two agents equipped with time-slowing devices were deploying their formations.

The batons in the hands of the time guards glowed with a strange yellow-orange light.

These seemingly ordinary police equipment are actually one of the most powerful weapons of the Time Management Bureau.

The judgment device on the top of the baton can exile the target into the cracks of time and space, where there is no time, no space, only eternal nothingness.

This is the "Land of Nothingness" mentioned in the original book.

At the same time, the agents in the rear have activated the time-slowing device.

Ripples of time fluctuations appeared in the air, which was a manifestation of the forced distortion of the space-time structure.

Any object or life touched by this wave will be forcibly dragged into an ultra-slow time flow, and the movement will be slowed down to one thousandth of the normal speed.

In an instant, several dazzling energy rays passed through this distorted space and time. They could not only tear apart matter, but also interfere with the target's time flow, making defense almost impossible.

At this time, Max's reaction was extremely fast.

With so many combat variants, he is now very proficient at it.

His body split into seven lightning clones in a flash, and each clone released a powerful electromagnetic barrier.

These barriers can not only resist physical attacks, but more importantly, they can disrupt the field generated by the time-slowing device.

The electromagnetic barrier collided with the space-time rays, and the energy oscillated back and forth in different time streams, stirring up pieces of space-time debris in the air.

However, the enemy's firepower network was too dense.

Jonathan, who had just dealt with the suicide agent, also followed Max to join the battlefield.

At this time, several energy bombs carrying the rules of time and space broke through the defense line and accurately hit Max's shoulder.

Under the influence of the energy of time and space, his flesh and blood began to disintegrate in a way that violated the laws of nature.

The blue skin on the surface begins to dissolve first, but this dissolution transcends the dimension of time, just like a video being forcibly decomposed into countless frames, with layers of blue light peeling off.

But there was no pain on Max's face.

He is now a semi-elemental energy body and has no feeling of pain. What's more, what is being dissolved is only part of his energy.

"That's it?"

Jonathan glanced at Max.

Time Guardian, such a disgusting name, is that it?

At this moment, the first time guard had already rushed forward. The baton in his hand drew a violent arc, and the judgment device flashed with a violent light and smashed towards Max.

However, Max's counterattack came faster. He completely transformed himself into pure energy, turning into a dazzling lightning that shuttled through different time streams.

Jonathan pinched his nose and moved with the flash.

It’s nothing...the smell of a burnt human body is really disgusting.

It’s really hard to eat like this.

The battle unfolds simultaneously in different time streams.

The batons of the Time Guardians weaved a dense web of judgment in the air, while Jonathan and Max moved through this web in a more flexible way.

Golden energy and lightning intertwined in distorted space and time. New agents fell every second, their bodies disintegrated in various bizarre ways.

Some were torn into pieces by Jonathan's unreasonable power of rules, while others were reversed and exiled to the land of nothingness.

"boom!"

Jonathan crushed the head of an agent with just his hands. Thick blood and broken bones splattered everywhere, staining the surrounding ground dark red.

Some blood dripped onto Jonathan's face, but was quickly vaporized by the energy field on his skin, forming wisps of scarlet steam.

"Hey... I wonder why there are more and more agents here..."

Jonathan saw more and more agents around him, and the portals were opening more and more densely.

Although I don’t have trypophobia, but damn… I still get tired if I keep playing…

As more portals opened, better-equipped agents continued to pour in.

They formed a tactical formation, with energy weapons forming a crossfire network.

At this time, not only Jonathan, but even Max, as an energy body, began to feel overwhelmed when faced with the Time Administration's endless human wave tactics.

A large-scale strangulation is necessary...

As Max thought about it, the electromagnetic clone weaved a giant, impenetrable net in the air.

Flashing arcs of electricity shuttled back and forth, trying to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Time Guardians.

However, this high-intensity energy output also caused a flaw in his concentration.

It was this moment of negligence that allowed a time guard to seize the opportunity.

The baton with an orange-yellow glow broke through the defense line like a snake and lightly brushed past one of Max's clones.

At the moment of contact, the space seemed to be torn open, emitting a heart-pounding breath of nothingness.

Max immediately realized something was wrong.

Although it was only an energy clone that was hit, he was horrified to find that some of the energy in his body had actually been lost.

This is not ordinary damage, but an erasure at the existential level.

The baton not only severed the connection between the clone and the original body, but also permanently exiled that part of the energy into the void.

"Damn it! Watch out for those batons!"

Max reminded Jonathan loudly.

Jonathan just kicked away a fat girl in black, but suddenly felt a chill coming from behind.

Turn around and look.

A young man with a scar and a grin rushed up holding a ring. It was none other than Old Six Harry, who had taken the opportunity to rest and hide his position.

The energy fluctuations of the time-slowing device swept across Jonathan's back, like an invisible net dragging him into the super-slow time flow.

Jonathan immediately deployed a full-power energy field, and the golden energy formed a complete protective shield around him.

The collision between the power of rules and the energy of time produced a dazzling light, and a teeth-grinding energy resonance stirred up in the air.

However, this is not the most dangerous thing.

Just as Jonathan was trying his best to resist the time-slowing effect, a judgment baton came flying through the air.

At this distance and at this angle, even Jonathan didn't have enough space to dodge.

Time seems to stand still at this moment.

It was at this critical moment of life and death that Jonathan did something that no one expected.

He did not choose to resist or dodge, but reached out to grab the baton.

The moment of contact, he put the baton into his own system space.

"Hey... didn't expect that?"

There are no fruits on the confused tree, but there are you and me under the confused tree.

This action stunned everyone present for a second.

Before they could react, Jonathan rematerialized the baton in his hand and threw it at Harry in a perfect arc.

"Let's go~"

Jonathan added.

And Harry obviously did not expect such a bloody situation.

At the critical moment, he tried to defend himself, but it was too late.

The baton hit his chest accurately, and the judgment device was immediately activated.

The world suddenly began to twist around Harry, like a torn picture.

His body began to become transparent, as if being rejected by this space. Finally, accompanied by an almost inaudible scream, Harry's figure completely disappeared into nothingness.

"Void Hunter... the real reason is to be abused..."

However, at this juncture, Jonathan temporarily relaxed his vigilance.

The remaining agents seized this opportunity and launched a more fierce siege.

Several time rays intertwined in the air, forming an almost perfect encirclement.

"Fuck... this is not a moral code..."

Jonathan dodged, but found that the side was already blocked by the judgment net.

"Shhh!!"

Just at this moment, a dazzling flash of lightning suddenly split the encirclement.

Max noticed Jonathan's situation at the critical moment, and without hesitation, his body was completely ionized and flashed here at an extremely fast speed.

However, this near-suicidal rescue also cost Max a heavy price.

Several time rays grazed his energy body, leaving unhealable cracks in it.

His energy field became extremely unstable and even began to show signs of collapse.

But at this critical moment, Jonathan looked at Max and suddenly a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

To be honest, if we fight here, these agents plundered from different timelines will only increase in number, and no matter how hard we fight, they will all be exhausted to death.

So... why not change your thinking?

Thinking of this, he turned to the already dying Max and asked in a relaxed and almost weird tone:

"Max...actually we don't have to fight so hard...do you want to go somewhere else to play?"

"what?"

Max didn't understand the meaning of this sentence for a moment.

"It's okay, just treat it as a trip..."

Jonathan's smile grew even wider, and his arms suddenly extended, grabbing Max's broken energy body.

At the moment of contact, an unimaginable suction force came, and Max subconsciously tried to break free.

But when he saw Jonathan's half-smile, he stopped struggling.

Jonathan...what on earth is he going to do...?

Before Max could think about it any further, the reality around him was torn apart, and the space began to distort, forming a huge vortex.

At this time, the agents of the Time Administration Bureau discovered to their horror that their weapons were completely ineffective against this phenomenon.

All time rays were swallowed by this vortex, and even space itself seemed to be collapsing inwards.

What's even more outrageous is that once they try to get close to this vortex, they will be kicked out of the range by a green energy, and the time machine that gets close will even malfunction.

Max just felt his consciousness begin to blur.

The last thing he saw before he lost consciousness was countless dimensional fragments dancing before his eyes, like a shattered kaleidoscope.

The last words heard.

It came faintly from Jonathan's mouth.

"The system... is back."
