The Master of the Strange Realm

"Okay, it's gone."

Because of the warning just now, Miss Audrey did not ask what "it" was. But she saw her teacher holding the [Vampire Nemesis] tightly. At the critical moment just now, she actually chose this dagger, which had a special effect on vampires, to protect the two of them:

"Is the one just now a vampire?"

Miss Audrey imagined the appearance of a mechanical vampire monster, and then heard a knock on the carriage door.

Dong dong dong~

The knock on the door was polite, but neither Miss Audrey nor Miss Bronyance dared to open the door. So the people outside the door became impatient and pushed the door open directly.

Jenkins climbed into the carriage and sat next to his teacher, Miss Audrey, looking out of breath.

"You...Jenkins at what time? Did you receive the teacher's letter?"

Miss Audrey was stunned for several seconds before she realized what she was asking.

"What letter? No, I was chasing a big bug, a big metal bug."

He seemed to have recovered, sat up straight, and grabbed his hair hard.

Chapter 2096 Chapter 2065 Time Paradoxist’s Reminder (Additional Updates)

"That bug is very difficult to deal with. Although a group of friends are helping me chase it, it is very cunning. I am a little tired. It is really not a simple matter to continuously jump in time. I just came to take a rest and confirm your Safe. Don’t worry, this matter will be resolved soon.”

Jenkins stood up again as he spoke, but he was bending down because the carriage was low:

"I kept chasing."

After stepping out of the carriage and disappearing into thin air, Miss Audrey looked outside to make sure that Jenkins would not come back before closing the door of the carriage again.

"Teacher, so what should we do now?"

"Just wait patiently, I think this matter is over."

Miss Bronyance leaned back on the soft cushions.

Just as Jenkins expected, it was the Difference Engine that controlled the power of the unknown [Paradox Bug]. It did not create new ideas, but continued to "improve" in its mechanical manufacturing technology, thus creating the [Mechanical Paradox Bug]. This bug theoretically has all the abilities of a weakened version of the [Paradox Bug], and because it was made by the Difference Engine, it has a lot more mechanical-related powers.

This made it impossible for the Time Paradoxists to subdue the bug in normal ways, so they needed Jenkins' help.

The unsealed [Paradox Worm] theoretically exists at every point in time, but does not exist at any point in time. Only a few groups such as Time Paradoxers can find it in time and make it visible.

It took more than thirty Time Paradoxists working together to allow Jenkins to use their power to jump through time in this area with them.

The first time they caught up with this bug in the open plain, the mechanical paradox bug gave everyone a surprise. It first opened its huge mouthparts and sprayed metal waste at everyone as if it were pulled out of a garbage dump. Then, under the influence of the power of time, those metals automatically formed gear mechanical creations of different shapes, apparently using a differential engine. An imitation of a monster created by power.

These imitation monsters have their own abilities. Even if they are defeated, they will recover again almost without interruption due to the power of time and mechanical power, forming a certain degree of true immortality.

The Time Paradoxists suppressed the power of time, and Jenkins suppressed the power of machinery, so these things were barely eliminated, but by this time the Paradox Worm had no idea where it had escaped.

So this is a very difficult chasing process. The basic procedure is the cycle of chasing-fighting-chasing. In this contact battle, Jenkins could realize that the bug was actually evolving. It relied on continuous battles to accumulate experience, and even the imitation mechanical monsters it created became more and more powerful.

But the Time Paradoxists did not gain their fame in vain. In repeated contacts, they finally discovered the time jumping flaw of the [Mechanical Paradox Bug]. The time travel of this big mechanical bug is not like a real paradox. Insects cost nothing.

Relying on this, the Time Paradoxists, together with Jenkins, finally found it again on this plain shrouded in white mist. Just when it wants to repeat its old tricks, bronze birds fly out of Jenkins' book. As the huge metal gears in Jenkins' eyes drove the gear array to rotate, the mechanical paradox insect actually stood still for a second:

"It's now!"

The ambiguous gray light shrouded the body of the mechanical paradox insect along with the outstretched hands of the time paradoxists. Jenkins finally felt the wind at this moment, which represented the restoration of the linearity of time.

The Mechanical Paradox Insect, which was briefly controlled by [The Principle of All Machines], certainly felt threatened. It struggled desperately, even trying to crush the group of people in front of it with its huge mountain-like body.

But it had no chance. As the gray light spread, its movements became stiff again, and it was unable to travel through time again in a short period of time.

"The rest is up to you."

The man in black formal clothes next to Jenkins said. He nodded, took out his sword, ran forward two steps and then jumped into the air. Like a dexterous cat, it climbed up the body of the giant mechanical bug. After finally reaching its head, it kicked hard to get to a higher position, and the sword light swirled and slashed downwards.

In the heart-wrenching sound, the bug was not cut into pieces, but there was an extra hole in one-third of its height.

Colorful light burst out from the hole in the mechanical body, followed by an aura that was more terrifying than the mechanical paradox insect, almost making Jenkins feel uncomfortable. The source of this colorful light is the core of this big mechanical bug, which is the power of the [Paradox Bug] that comes from nowhere.

Jenkins did not dare to touch the colorful light. He just stood on top of the big mechanical insect and suppressed its movements with the power of [The Principle of All Machines].

The Time Paradoxists also did not dare to touch the light directly. Just like they did in the hospital last time, they called out a huge ring in the sky that seemed to absorb all colors. Those colored lights immediately turned into little light particles and were sucked away by the ring.

And in this process, everything around us is returning to normal. Although the lightless empty plain is still the same plain, the chaotic time flow has become normal.

Without the power of the Paradox Bug, this big mechanical bug can only be regarded as a mechanical creation with a large appearance but ordinary power. Under Jenkins's division, it was easily cut into three parts and scattered on the plain.

He jumped down from the remains of the bug and reconfirmed that the three metal cores integrated with miniaturized steam engines located at the head, center and tail of the bug's body had lost their ability to move, and then he walked towards the Time Paradoxists with his sword in hand:

"Thank you for your help. This fog will dissipate. I really trouble you this time."

"No, great one, it is us who should thank you."

The man in black formal clothes, who was the spokesperson among the group of people, said humbly, and their figures were fading. After dealing with the things here, they still have other things to deal with. In countless continuous time and space, the paradox insects are always superimposed in the state of breaking away from the seal and not breaking away from the seal, so the time paradoxers will always have a job. To do.

"We just discovered something very important. Originally, because it was related to the end of the era, we shouldn't have reminded you, but since you helped us, we can tell you this information as a thank you."

He bowed slightly to Jenkins and said directly without asking Jenkins:

"We discovered that the stolen power was not just the [Paradox Bug]."

PS: Although no one answered the chapter number correctly yesterday, because there were a lot of rewards and blades today, I added one more.

This Friday (February 12th), the first day of the Lunar New Year, we will update 10 chapters (2k×10), plus those that were originally supposed to be updated, for a total of 12 chapters (2W+5K).

By the way, please vote for everything.

Chapter 2097 Chapter 2066 Bad News

Hearing this sentence, Jenkins frowned. Miss Bronyance's divination not long ago showed that the mysterious realm is not only a mysterious realm, but also contains the power of the past. Combined with this reminder from the Time Paradoxist, he had some very bad guesses:

"Are you saying that each floor of that metal tower has the power of a different beast of disaster?"

The origin of the Difference Engine cannot be verified, but it must have experienced at least nine different eras, so it is entirely possible that it has seen nine disaster beasts, and it is also possible to obtain their power.

"We don't know about the metal tower. But in the nearby city that serves as the stage for the end of the era, there does exist the power of an unknown number of disaster beasts. Our family has traveled through different times, and has fought with different disasters more than once. When you encounter a beast, you will never misidentify this scent.”

Even if it is only part of the power of the beast of disaster, it is not something that the normalized Jenkins can easily fight against. This time, the Time Paradoxers, the natural enemies of the [Paradox Worm], exist. Otherwise, unless he uses that drop of divinity, he will have no way to deal with the mechanical Paradox Worm.

Not to mention that there are nine different imitation beasts of disaster in the metal tower. Even if there is one every other floor, or even one every three floors, it is not something Jenkins can handle.

Unless he can find the natural enemies or restraint methods of those disaster beasts in advance like he does now. But it’s not long before midnight, and Ovia’s “Criminal Sin: Beasts of Disaster” does not mention the clear natural enemies of those monsters. It is impossible for Jenkins to find a way to deal with the seventeen Disaster Beasts in the remaining time. The means of the beast.

Even if he were to go back to the time he just traveled a year ago and walk through this year's journey again, the possibility that he would be able to find a way to fight against all the beasts of disaster when he came back to the current point in time was extremely slim:

"Speaking of which, in about twenty hours it will be the first anniversary of my coming to this world..."

It was late afternoon and almost night, and now it was the night before, so there was indeed less than twenty-four hours left.

I suddenly realized that it was absolutely abnormal for the decisive battle to take place at this point in time, and the Time Paradoxists had already said goodbye and left during the moment when Jenkins' thoughts were diverging and his mind was wandering.

He stood there looking at the corpse of the mechanical paradox insect on the ground. He was stunned for a while and then raised his hand to the sky.

A thick bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air and hit the insect's body directly. This lightning also attracted the attention of other people in the convoy. Soon, the convoys scattered across the plain gathered here. Jenkins also took this time to cancel the projection and return to his body in the carriage.

He did not hide what happened just now. Except that he had known the Time Paradoxists for a long time, he told everyone in the church everything else. Of course, the Time Paradoxers appeared on their own and had nothing to do with Jenkins.

His defeat of the Mechanical Paradox Worm with the help of the Time Paradoxers was not the most surprising. What was most surprising was the new information about the nine-story metal tower.

"The power of nine different disaster beasts?"

Miss Audrey no longer knew what to say:

"Even if it is only part of the power of the beast of disaster, it is completely transcendent. Part of the power of the beast of disaster is also the beast of disaster. Judging from the secret and unopened information, it is only God or the messenger of God. Only we can deal with it. I have read information about the end of other eras. Why did such a dangerous enemy appear this time we experienced? "

This is probably related to the fact that the savior is too powerful, but even so, Jenkins thinks that the enemy he faces is too much.

"The situation in the Evergreen Forest is still unknown. The white fog is dissipating. The enemies over there should soon discover the defeat of the Mechanical Paradox Bug. I will continue to go to the forest to check the situation there. I hope The others are now returning to the church to collect as much information as possible about the beast of disaster. I hope to see some valuable information when I return to the church after handling the matter in the forest."

He arranged it this way, but in the end only one-third of the people returned to the Sage Church to deliver the news. The others had to go to the forest with Jenkins. After all, it was really hard to say what happened there.

The convoy soon set off again, arriving directly at the checkpoint outside the forest without stopping in the gradually dissipating white mist. It was silent here, and there was no sign of the Giver who was supposed to be on duty nearby.

Jenkins checked and found no abnormal aura with his eyes. The life spirit in the forest was also quite normal. He could even see squirrels and rabbits sleeping soundly nearby.

There's nothing wrong with Evergreen Forest itself, or at least it appears to be. So Jenkins said to Alexia:

"Fly me up and I'll take a look."

Then he said to others:

"You should not enter the Evergreen Forest for the time being."

Alexia took his hand and took him to a high altitude. From the air, she saw the red dragon squatting on the giant tree in the middle of the forest, looking nervously downwards.

At the same time, the wide field of vision and the monocle he had worn also allowed Jenkins to see more things. No one died, and no fierce battle seemed to break out. At this moment, most of the church's bestowers in the entire forest gathered in the open space of the giant tree in the center of the forest.

In addition to the church gifter, there is a person in the open space with a black aura. The aura is not very strong, and it is not even considered a trick.

"what is that?"

He asked quietly, and then told Alexia what he saw. The short lady probably guessed the situation:

"It looks like the Difference Engine is ready. Evergreen Forest is safe and waiting for you."

Just as she guessed, the black aura that appeared in the middle of the forest was another manipulated mechanical body. The workmanship of the differential engine is so exquisite that it even covers the mechanical body with skin, making it look very much like a human being.

Without saying a word, it looked at the white shadow hanging upside down under the pool with its hands behind its back. It didn't turn around until the footsteps of Jenkins and his party came from the end of the path connecting the open space:

"Savior, I have known for a long time that even the power of the beast of disaster cannot stop you."

He looked like a human being, but his face had no facial features, as if it were covered with a layer of white cloth. Black clouds, gray fog, and ashes are also affecting this forest. There are no street lights in the forest, and the light mainly comes from the candles held by the Gifters who are forced to gather here by the Difference Engine.

Its faceless appearance looked extremely terrifying, and Jenkins just snorted:

"Are you still trying to persuade me to surrender to you?"

"No, no, no, I've figured it out. You can plan such a scam, and even get the support of the whole world after deceiving people all over the world. Your ambition will definitely not be smaller than mine. It seems like , My methods are even a little inferior to yours, and my strength may be stronger than yours, but it was only recently that I understood the importance of the human race to the world. "

"What do you want to do here?"

The numbered items concentrated in the Evergreen Forest were not taken away by the Difference Engine. This is the storage place for numbered items, and the storage area is the area that each church attaches most importance to. Without multiple verifications, even the people stationed in the Evergreen Forest could not take away any items, and the difference engine obviously failed.

"I just want to see you again before you enter my tower, and make sure that you can really deal with the power of the beast of disaster and will not fall down on the first floor of the tower. Wouldn't that be too much? Are you bored? It’s indeed a good idea to use numbered items, but you think I wouldn’t think you would do this?”

"No, I thought you would think I would do this."

"So, since you thought that I would think that you would do this, do you think that I would take action against you that you would not think of but that I would think of?"

If it hadn't asked this, Jenkins wouldn't have thought about it, but now that he had this question, he understood:

"So it's no coincidence that the vampire, the Countess, escaped to Beldiran and used the maze of the Scarlet Banquet?"

"I'm glad you thought of that. It's certainly not a coincidence."

Jenkins has seen many mazes in the past year, and he has personally participated in the use of some mazes. But among all the mazes, the Scarlet Banquet is the most special one. It is of course very dangerous. If the Blood Mosquito Curse is leaked accidentally, at least the name Beldiran will really become history.

The point is that this maze is the only one that restricts the strength of the entrants so far. Reality is not a novel. Even if outsiders have read many stories in their own world from literary works, which require a certain strength to enter the secret adventure, the reality is that this is very difficult to do.

The emergence of the maze rituals in this world has its historical roots, and it has the mystical power before the emergence of the ancient benefactor system as its foundation. Therefore, there are very few mazes that restrict the strength of the entrants. It can even be said that even if you look up the documents in the palace library, you can hardly find ten.

This puzzle lock appeared beside Jenkins for a purpose, and this purpose was not revealed until today:

"My tower itself is both a strange place and a ritual. I used the entire world as the ritual base and the tower as the ritual core. After thousands of years of preparation, I completed this puzzle lock. One of the rules of the puzzle lock is that no more than one creature can enter the tower at a time. Another rule is that any mysterious and extraordinary objects brought into the tower by the creatures entering the tower must have been touched by the entrant one month before entering the tower."

The face was obviously expressionless, but Jenkins thought he saw a smile:

"In other words, savior, you can only bring those numbered items that you have touched a month ago into the tower. I wanted to tell you this surprise when you enter, but I was too impatient to see your expression. This may be the wonder of having your own soul."

Chapter 2098 Chapter 2067 A plan with a sense of déjà vu

If the robot in front of him could laugh out loud with his hands behind his back and his head tilted upwards, then this scene would be too vivid. But the Difference Engine is not a human being after all, and even its soul is not complete, so it can't do what only Jenkins can think of.

"You are so boring that you came here just to tell me this?"

Jenkins maintained his calmness on the surface:

"I have been prepared for a long time. Whether it is your strange world or the power of those disaster beasts, these will not scare me. On the contrary, I think you who have a soul are afraid now, right? Otherwise, you would not deliberately create such a troublesome situation. I really want to know how scared you are of me?"

"Savior, you are the person I admire most since I was born and recorded data. It would be great if you could join my camp. I see possibilities in you, possibilities that are different from any other creatures in the past. Your appearance in this world is a gift to anyone.

But since you choose to be my enemy, then your journey in this world is probably coming to an end. I have no intention of wasting your time. It is still four hours before midnight. As your enemy, I wish you can climb to the ninth floor of the tower to see me. I am looking forward to what kind of surprises you can bring me beyond calculation."
