I am the only one who practices magic: I practice magic in the city

Chapter 383 Time Moves (4452)

Amid the vast heaven and earth, a giant pillar stands upright in the clouds.

In the "holding station" on the first floor of the Lorin Tower, Adam Meyers curled up in a corner of the interrogation table, trembling all over.

This is Lorin Tower!

The infamous Lorin Tower!

The nightmare place of all chaotic creatures - Lorin Tower!

How did I get to Lorraine Tower so quickly?
Who is this guy? Not only is he already an intermediate mage at such a young age, but he can also instantly transfer from Blue Star to Lorraine Tower. Could he be the illegitimate son of Estrel Lorraine?

Fang Yu sat on a chair with his legs crossed. Opposite him was a crystal screen. It was this crystal screen that separated him and Adameyes.

Adam Meyers still maintains his human form, baring his white teeth, holding the bars of the cage, looking like a cotton picker.
On the surface, the two people were only separated by a thin crystal screen, but in fact, they were not in the same space at all.

After Adam Meyers was taken in, he was imprisoned in a demiplane called "Prison".

Then, this half plane folded the plane space in a cipher-like way. Adam Meyers, who seemed to be only two steps away, was actually in another plane that could not be reached even if a lightspeed spacecraft flew for billions of years.

The "internment station" is a place in the Lorraine Tower that is specifically used to detain and incarcerate neutral evil and chaotic evil creatures. After being incarcerated, these creatures will be eliminated or deported depending on the crimes they have committed in the past.

In the Age of the Great Arcane, because the Abyss creatures had basically no material value, and most of them had mistakenly entered the main plane due to the ubiquitous space-time rifts in the Abyss, and had no intention of settling in the main material plane, these contained Abyss creatures would basically be sent back to the Abyss.

But some of the capable generals under the Abyss Lord are exceptions.

On the surface, the abyss and the main plane do not interfere with each other. Both sides dislike each other's environment, so naturally there will be no conflict.

But in fact, some layers of the Abyss Lords will regularly invade the main plane. They do not want to rule the main plane, but to plunder the spirituality of the main plane in order to bridge the many very unstable spatial rifts in the abyss.

Some rifts were too unstable, causing headaches for the Abyss Lords, often resulting in them sending out a team of demons to attack lords of other layers, only to be swallowed up by rifts that suddenly appeared halfway through the journey.

For the Lord of the Abyss, the death of some soldiers is nothing, but it is possible that he will lose the war just because this team of soldiers is not in place.

Therefore, before the Great Arcane Age, every few dozen or hundreds of years, the Lord of the Abyss would launch a demonic disaster, launch a large-scale invasion of the main plane, and harvest spirituality, which lasted until the early period of the Great Arcane Age.

In TR1, the twelve legends of the Union of Arcane launched a sweep of the Endless Abyss, forcing the Abyss Lords of more than layers of the Abyss connected to the main plane to collectively sign a treaty under the city, promising not to launch demonic disasters again.

In exchange, the Union of Arcane Magic also established a special agency to regularly dispatch arcane mages to replace spirituality with arcane power to help the Abyss fill the gap.

But even in the Great Arcane Era when the Union of Arcane was at its peak, there were still resistance forces such as the Shadow Plane. These forces would still make deals with the Abyss, summon all kinds of demons from the Abyss, and in the popular sense, do evil.

Adam Meyers responded to the call of a low-level wizard from the Shadow Plane. It was his first time to respond to the call, but he lost consciousness while passing through the abyss passage. He didn't know if this was normal, but after waking up, he appeared on the Blue Planet.

Fang Yu touched his chin and pressed a button casually. A whip of light appeared out of thin air behind Adam Meyers and hit him on the back.

Pah! Puff! Puff!
Adam Mayes howled silently. If it weren't for the suppression of the laws here, he would have revealed his true form after this whip.

The "Whip of Order" that contains the power of law is the natural nemesis of abyss creatures.

"As expected of an Abyss Demon, even though he is only a minor Nabasu from the first level of the Abyss, he is so stubborn. Even after such severe torture, he still refuses to confess."

Fang Yu showed admiration on his face and pressed the button a few more times.

"Pah! Puff, sizzle~"

After whipping Adam Meyers several times in a row, Fang Yu actually felt like he was reborn in the Civil War as a southern plantation owner.

"Crack!" Another whip.

Adam Meyers was beaten so hard that he rolled his eyes and roared in his heart.

It's unfair! Who said I didn't recruit? Why don't you ask me? You didn't ask me what I recruited?
Fang Yu originally wanted to whip the prisoner a few more times, but as soon as he pressed the button, the crystal screen prompted: Your punishment of the prisoner has exceeded the necessary scope. Please ask the prisoner questions as soon as possible. The authority of the Whip of Order will be locked before you ask again.

Damn it?

Well, it turned out to be the White Left Alliance, no wonder it perished so easily.

Fang Yu released the button in disappointment. Adam Meyers was so excited that he wanted to shout "The Austrian Federation is wise."

"OK then."

Fang Yu's eyes rolled. "Let G be a finite group with order |G|=60, and H be a subgroup of G."

“Q: If the order of H is 15, explain why this contradicts Lagrange’s theorem.”

"Also: Assume that the order of a subgroup K of G is 12. Calculate the number of left cosets in G and explain the significance of left coset partitioning."

"Answer it."

Adam Meyers: …

Fuck you.

"You won't tell me? Humph! You're still not telling the truth!"

Fang Yu's face darkened and he pressed the button hard.

"Pah! Puff, sizzle~"

Adam Meyers is in tears.

Damn it, are you the devil or am I the devil?

You are just looking for an excuse to beat me, right?

How could there be such a mean arcane mage! ?
"Sir!!! I'll tell you!!! I'll tell you!!! I'll tell you whatever you ask!!! You are my father!!! Is that ok???"

Adam Meyers, who was confined to human form in the "shelter", had all the natural human reactions, including tears and snot, and the only thing missing was changing into brown linen clothes and putting a crushed watermelon next to him.

Fang Yu released the button reluctantly, took a sip of the iced Fiery Sun Essence Liquid in the thermos, and began to formally interrogate the Nabasu.

Adam Meyers did not dare to play any tricks. He knew that the shelter at Lorin Tower had a way to tell whether he was lying or not. Besides, there was no need to lie, so he recounted his story in detail.

"You mean, you were summoned here in TR1340? And you woke up in the Great Zhou? It was around 2820? You didn't see the summoner? And how do you know you woke up in the Great Zhou?"

When Fang Yu heard the date calculated by Youzi based on Adam Meyers' confession, his pupils couldn't help but narrow.

Is it TR1340 again?
And this abyss demon awakened in the year 2820 of the weekly calendar?

During the Qianlong era? The Jurchen emperor who liked to write “I’ve been here” on cultural relics?

Adam Meyers smiled apologetically, "Yes, sir. The Abyss has no calendar. I responded to the call when Lord Maduras attacked the 175th layer of the Abyss. Maybe this happened in the year TR1340 you mentioned. It was decades later that I learned that the place was called Da Zhou. I didn't understand the language of Blue Star at that time. I only remember that the people there had pigtail-like braids..."

"Pah! Puff, sizzle, sizzle~"

Adam Meyers howled again.

Shit! I said the wrong thing! No, this guy is clearly an arcane mage from the main plane. What does he have to do with the Great Zhou of Blue Star?
Is he a native of Blue Star?

It's impossible. It seems that no one in this strange plane can sense the nodes of the magic network. Otherwise, I would have accumulated enough arcane mages for sacrifice in these hundreds of years.

"Oh, it's okay, my hand just shook. Go on. Then, how did you get from Da Zhou to Mai Kingdom?" Fang Yu pressed the button again.

There is no demon that will not succumb to the whip of order. If there is, then give it two whips.

Adam Meyers twitched for a long time, and finally recovered, with snot and tears, "My lord, I didn't want to either, but I had just woken up, and I don't know why my strength and mind regressed to the time when I was born. I just crawled out of the water and found a few people nearby. I wanted to devour their spirituality to restore my strength, but not long after, I was chased by a group of people on horseback waving weapons, shouting words I couldn't understand..."

Hearing this, Fang Yu had an idea and interrupted Adam Meyers: "Wait, you said you crawled out of the water? You were in the water when you woke up?"

Adam Meyers shrank his neck for no apparent reason, and it was obvious that he was scared of being beaten.

"Do you remember the exact location?" Fang Yu opened a map of the Great Zhou and asked Adam Myers to confirm where he woke up.

Adam Meyers looked at the map and grimaced for a long time, thinking, who the hell can remember what happened back then? And there were no maps back then, so how would I know where I was?

But I didn't dare not answer.

"Sir, I was so busy running that I really don't remember where I was." Adam Meyers had a sad face. Seeing Fang Yu's face sank, he immediately said, "But I remember that there were very high mountains nearby. Now I think that the water area should be composed of two lakes, one large and one small. There was ice on the waterside at that time. It should have been winter, I think."

Did you grow up in Luzhou? What an inverted sentence!
Fang Yu was shocked after hearing this.

Sure enough, it was Huaqiao Reservoir and Cuiping Reservoir.

The Rubik's Cube was fished out by Gao Mingkai from Cuiping Reservoir that day.

And three hundred years ago, there was indeed a military camp stationed here for a long time.

Was this guy brought here by the Magic Cube?

Then why did it wake up more than 200 years ago? Or did the Rubik's Cube fall here more than 200 years ago?
"Okay, keep talking."

Fang Yu nodded calmly.

Eh? No whipping?

Adam Meyers was a little uncomfortable for a moment.

"Pah! Puff, puff, puff."

Fuck! It’s too early to be happy.

Following Adam Meyers's narration, Fang Yu roughly understood the origin of Nabasu.

It is possible that a catastrophe occurred when Nabasu was responding to the call of the shadow plane. For unknown reasons, this Nabasu fell into Cuiping Lake along with the Rubik's Cube. After an unknown amount of time, when Nabasu woke up and wanted to devour the spiritual power of several people to restore his strength, he found that he could not even beat an adult man. In the end, he could only return to the form of a gargoyle and disguise himself as a sculpture, hiding in a house.

As luck would have it, this family was a smuggling merchant. After seeing the statue, they sold it to a Dutch smuggler.

This group of Dutch people also engaged in the slave trade. After setting out from Da Zhou, they went directly around the Cape of Good Hope to the Gold Coast, intending to first send the slaves and Da Zhou's silk, porcelain and tea to Beimai, and then return to the Netherlands from Beimai.

After getting on the boat, Nabasu found that the environment was simply paradise.

Bah, bah, bah, it's like returning to the abyss.

The conditions on the slave ships were terrible, with casualties sometimes as high as one-third or even more. But with just this one trip, Nabasu accumulated enough spiritual power to reach adulthood.

But at this time he discovered that the summoning time had long passed, but it was not forced back to the abyss.

You know, if it cannot return to the abyss smoothly, it will never reach adulthood until the end of its life.

The lifespan of the abyss demon is certainly long, but it is not infinite. If Nabasu cannot reach adulthood, his longest lifespan will be only three hundred years.

This made Adam Meyers panic. After recovering his strength, he looked everywhere for ways to return to the abyss. He even made a magic circle to summon demons, hoping that through the opened abyss passage, other demons would inform the lord of the first layer, Pei Zuzu, to take him back.

The ending is predictable, it's completely useless.

In this process, because Adam Meyers needed to devour the spirituality of intelligent creatures, he created a large number of urban legends on the North Mai continent, such as the lighthouse ghost, the rabbit man, the crocodile sewer, the goat man, the wind walker...

That is why the ritual of exorcism is more popular in North Mai than in Europ.

When he reached level five, Fang Yu once studied the spell of summoning demons, but he also found that he could not summon demons at all.

The Abyss still exists, as evidenced by the occasional cracks that appear in the main plane. Otherwise, succubi like Claudia would not have been born.

But the abyss seems to have been pushed away from the main material world, and the passage between the two worlds no longer exists.

Adam Mayes could not find a way to return. If he wanted to maintain his life in the main material world, he had to rely on constantly devouring the spirituality of intelligent creatures. However, as human technology and organizational strength became stronger and stronger, it became increasingly difficult for Adam Mayes to obtain spirituality. It was at this time that he disguised himself as a slave of John Adams, a founding father of the country of May.

John Adams was the first to discover his unusualness. After conspiracy, John Adams successfully became the second president of the United States of America. It was also John Adams who used it to establish the prototype of the "Omniscient Society".

The name Adams is also the origin of the name Adam Meyers.

After John Adams' death, the cunning Nabasu also devoured John Adams' spirituality and officially gave himself the name Adam Meyers.

My goodness, if I tell this to others, people will definitely call it a conspiracy theory and urban legend.

After Adam Meyers confessed everything, Fang Yu thought about it for a long time, but still did not kill this guy completely. He decided to temporarily lock him up in the "shelter".

Not to mention an underage Nabasu, even if the demon lord came, he would have to be locked up obediently, which is safer than anywhere else.

Moreover, after I leave, the time here will stop, so I don't have to worry about any problems.

Fang Yu yawned, initiated the switch, returned to the Chuanbao International Hotel Building, quickly dealt with the finishing work, and then teleported to Los Santos, where he went everywhere.

It’s okay, Da Mimi hasn’t adjusted to the jet lag yet and is in high spirits.

The next day, when Fang Yu started the switch again and was about to find Adam Meyers to ask for the secret materials accumulated by the Omniscience Society, he was stunned when he saw Adam Meyers as soon as he switched to the recovery shelter.

Is this guy asleep?
When did you fall asleep?
It was clearly still awake when I left.

Is it...

Fang Yu's heart was pounding. He took out a spare phone, turned on the timer at the same time as his own phone, put the spare phone on the table, and then turned the switch on again.

Not long after, Fang Yu switched back again.

Seeing the timer numbers displayed on both mobile phones, Fang Yu couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

01:03、01:04、01:05……

01:03、01:04、01:05……

When we returned to Blue Star, the time here moved!
