My name is Jean Yake.
I am a wizard. I got the honor of the white robe of the Phnom Penh twenty years ago. I am currently a director of the European Wizards League.
I am not a research wizard, nor do I like fighting, I only like adventure.
From the time I graduated from the apprenticeship, I started my adventure career.
All the mysterious places on the earth are my adventure destinations.
I hope that in my lifetime, I can explore a hundred worlds unknown to humans, and tell everyone, at least to all wizards, that the world is so big and there are so many unknown secrets waiting for us to explore.
This is my fifty-sixth expedition diary.
According to the old rules, I will remember from the beginning to the end of the expedition.
If I can successfully complete the expedition alive, this diary will be locked in a safe and will not be taken out until I die.
This is my will.
If I die during the expedition, then this diary must be on my corpse. Whoever finds my corpse will definitely get this diary.
No matter who sees this diary, I hope you can help me make it public, so that everyone knows what I died here for and why.
So now let us get to the topic.
The place I am going this time is located deep in the mountains of the Greater Caucasus, known as the state of death.
Ten months ago, I acquired some information from KGB from a friend, and my friend said that I would definitely be interested in this information.
On this point, he was right. After reading the content, I was really interested.
Before that, I never knew there was such a mysterious place in the Greater Caucasus.
This is a decade-long investigation report and related ancillary materials of the Red Empire on an area with a radius of about 300 kilometers in the Greater Caucasus Mountains.
Although it is only an attachment, it is enough to show me a wealth of information.
According to this information, that place is perennially shrouded in dense clouds and fog, and even spy satellites cannot capture anything under the cloud and fog.
The KGB first paid attention to this place because there was a troop pursuing the local separatist armed forces missing in this area. The follow-up troop reported the peculiarities of this area during the investigation.
The locals call this place of death. In anyone's memory or any related records, no one can enter that area and come out.
The military of the Red Empire did not believe this rumor, and for this they paid a heavy price.
According to the previous marching display, the chasing and suppressing troops just advanced here and entered this area.
The military has sent three battalions into the investigation.
But without exception, these three teams immediately interrupted all contact after entering, and never came out.
The military in the Greater Caucasus had to report the situation to the Supreme Council.
The Supreme Council ordered KGB to investigate further.
The first is to check whether the military's report is true, whether it involves internal military issues, especially whether there are two-faced people colluding with separatists in the military.
The second is to investigate whether there is such an area in the empire. For a country like the Red Empire that has a strong desire for control, it is natural that such a large area is not allowed to be outside the control.
KGB first conducted a rigorous investigation into the military in the Greater Caucasus region, and finally proved the innocence of the military, and finally focused its attention on death.
After the initial use of electronic equipment for detection, the deployment of aircraft aerial reconnaissance, and the use of spy satellites failed, the KGB ordered the military to send a mountain infantry regiment, divided into ten directions into the realm of death, and carried a lot of equipment, directly clearing the way. Lin entered, vowing to find out the situation in this area.
But when these ten teams entered the realm of death, the trees they fell down completely recovered in just ten minutes, and even the grass that was trampled on stood up again.
The entire mountain infantry regiment disappeared into the realm of death.
After the KGB reported to the Supreme Council, the Supreme Council naturally could not tolerate such out-of-control areas in the territory, and the simple and rude Russians immediately threw a small nuclear bomb down.
But the nuclear bomb went in and there was still no sound.
Not only that, although all investigators took photos on the periphery and wanted to draw a map of the basic terrain and area of the state of death through a combination of peripheral photos, all the photos they took back were all without one. Exceptional blank, not even a tree or grass can be illuminated!
This is a very interesting place.
Through intelligence, I think this may be a time trap.
The theory of time trapping is a theory put forward by the Wizard of Budler Phnom Penh from the Institute of Time under the Pan-Witch Alliance of Milliken.
He first thought that time is not an abstract concept of forced naming, but a real existence like space. The reason why we cannot explore time is because we live in a world with space as the main axis, and time is only a hidden auxiliary. axis. Only when we change the axis and use time as the main axis and space as the auxiliary axis, can we explore the mysteries of time, and even realize time travel and control time.
On the basis of this theory, he proposed that some parts of time, like space, also have circular Klein-like parts without exits.
In this part, time has neither beginning nor end, forming a closed loop that can keep revolving without having to cross the sideline!
Once the creatures with space as the main axis fall into these rings, they will continue to experience the same period of time without beginning or end, and they will never be able to get rid of them.
Since those trees can be quickly resurrected to their original state after being damaged, and the photos cannot be taken, then it can probably prove that this is such a time cage.
Trees will automatically recover because time keeps circulating in a closed state. Even if it is temporarily destroyed, it will return to its original state when it loops back to the previous coordinate point. There is no beginning and no end.
However, the specifics still need to be checked in the past to be sure.
The Budler Wizard’s time cage theory has been put forward for many years, but it has not been able to find enough evidence.
This time I finally have this opportunity.
I went to Milliken, met the wizard Badler, showed him some information, and told my inference.
The Wizard of Budler agrees with my inference and is very excited. He wants to take a look at this place, and thinks that if it can be confirmed that the time cage does exist, and if he seeks to study it in depth, it may even rewrite the history of mankind. From then on, time travel is no longer a dream!
However, such an extraordinary adventure must be enjoyed exclusively by me and cannot be shared with anyone else. This is something I cannot bear anyway.
I rejected the proposal of the Badler wizards to form a joint expedition, and only accepted the expedition funding from the Time Institute.
Adventure is a costly hobby that requires strong financial resources to support it. This is why I found the Badler Wizard and the Time Institute.
In return for the investment, after completing the expedition, I will share the results of the expedition with them as soon as possible.
The Time Institute and I jointly held a press conference to announce the expedition and its investment in me.
I think they probably don't worry about me, they want to make our cooperation public in this situation, so that I can monopolize the results of the expedition.
In fact, they don't understand me. All I want is the process of exploration. All I want is the momentary pleasure of uncovering the fog and seeing the truth. Other things don't care.
After I got the funding, I made all the necessary preparations, ditched the tracking of me by the Time Research Institute, and came to the realm of death alone.
It is really primitive here, the nearest village is also five hundred miles away, and I can't find any guide who is willing to show me the way. They all say that there is a devil in the realm of death, which will take away all the souls of life.
When talking about the devil in the realm of death, every native villager seemed quite scared, but they couldn't tell the specific appearance of the devil.
But the more so, the more authentic!
Obviously, they were so scared that they had actually seen something, but that thing was beyond the scope of their language description, so even if they wanted to find something similar, they couldn't find it. Naturally, they would be able to tell the specific appearance.
If you can find similar things in the world for analogy, then this devil's appearance may have long been spread beyond recognition.
Although I can't find a guide to lead the way, I still have some gains.
The enthusiastic villagers pointed me to an invisible road. They said that it was left by the imperial army when they went to explore. Follow this road to reach the realm of death.
My only hope is that this road must not be completely obscured by grass and trees because of the age.
Fortunately, although this road is sometimes broken, with the help of the wind spirit I released, I still walked on the right path. It took five days to reach the original mountain infantry regiment. Established camp.
I have to praise the pragmatism of the Russians here. Although it is only a temporary camp, it is built extremely sturdy. Although the concrete barracks have no windows, there is no problem living in them.
This is enough for me to enter the realm of death as a starting point and a mark of salvation.
The time cage is a very dangerous state. Not only can foreign creatures never escape once they are caught in it, but the longer the creatures stay in it, the greater the mutation.
Although from the time axis, the time here is only one day, but for the creatures on the space axis, even if it is only one day, it also represents countless days in the psychological and physical sense. This psychological and physical experience is compared with the real time. The gap will lead to the constant alienation of creatures from spirit to form.
Biology itself will continue to adapt to the environment and evolve, and they will continue to evolve in order to adapt to this cycle of time.
Once I want to enter here to explore, I must make two preparations in advance.
One is to ensure that you can come out smoothly.
The other is to ensure that you have the ability to deal with the mutant creatures in it.
As a golden-rimmed white-robed wizard, I am already one of the top people on the planet in terms of personal combat ability, but the problem is that mutant monsters that have been trapped in the territory of death for how many time cycles are likely to be immune. The spells of our creatures in normal time periods.
For this reason, I did some accuracy, and even went back along the way and purchased some military weapons.
The existence of any creature is nothing more than spiritual and physical. No matter how much it mutates, this fact cannot be changed. I purchased powerful military weapons and used spells to intensify the transformation to ensure that the dual strikes can be performed at the same time.
The most troublesome thing is actually not the mutant creatures, but how to escape the time trap after entering.
I asked the wizard Badler about this question.
Although there is no practical experience, in terms of theoretical research on time issues, no one dares to say that it is better than the Time Institute, and no one in the Time Institute dare to say that it is better than the Badler Wizard.
The Wizard of Budler gave me three plans, all of which were put in place before I entered, to make a triple insurance to ensure that I could escape.
If one of the three plans can succeed and I can guarantee my escape, then it proves that this state of death is indeed the theoretical time cage of Budler Wizard. If I can't escape, I won't waste it. At least it must prove that this is not a time cage, or prove that the Budler Wizard's theory has been deviated.
I used the camp to position the space axis, and left part of my soul in the camp as a positioning anchor, carefully set the triple plan, and then began to enter the realm of death.
On the first day of entering the realm of death, everything was peaceful. I did not encounter any attack by any native creatures. To be precise, I did not encounter any creatures.
There are only plants, no animals, no birds, and insects.
Although the grass and trees grew extremely luxuriantly, they didn't even have a small bug!
Obviously full of vitality, but deadly silence!
I did not find any traces of human activity in the places I passed by.
It is completely invisible that a large number of troops have entered here, and there is no trace of nuclear bombing.
On the first day, I went straight ahead for about a hundred miles. The whole journey was boring and outrageous, especially the surrounding grass and trees had almost no features and looked exactly the same.
The next day, there was still nothing wrong, and I was still moving forward.
On the third day, move on.
On the fourth day, go forward.
The fifth day, the sixth day, the seventh day...
I walked for a week and kept going one hundred miles a day. According to the range shown by the KGB intelligence, I should have passed through the realm of death by this time.
But if it is out of the realm of death, the surrounding forest will become lively, and flying insects, snakes and rats will appear.
Now, there is still life in front of me.
The scope of this death realm is larger than KGB imagined.
I think I might be mistaken for a serious problem! (End of this chapter)
