157 The Truth of Defection
Du Yalan brought her two children to the rooftop.
It is very open here, but no one hears what he says. It is quiet and condescending. It is undoubtedly an excellent place to talk about things - especially when there are several ears at home.
"Actually, I can guess a little reason why the association suddenly softened its attitude..." Du Yalan spoke carefully, facing the boy and girl, "This reason is a bit complicated. Speaking of which, it actually has something to do with you, Nana."
Duna pointed at herself and asked in confusion: "Me?"
Du Yalan looked directly at the unrelated daughter, took a deep breath, and said, "The reason I chose to defect was because of you."
The girl became more and more surprised.
Du Yalan continued: "At the beginning, at Lao He's suggestion, I used your blood to do an experiment. The experiment came to two conclusions. The first is that your blood is not only extremely magical affinity, but also has a stronger holy light affinity."
Of course, Zuo Rong had expected it, but was not very surprised. Duna couldn't help but say: "Holy Light? How is it possible!"
Du Yalan sighed and said, "Use the holy light stimulated by your blood as a mark of time and space, I came to the second conclusion. That is, the time in that world is slowing down."
Time in the magical world is slowing down.
As soon as these words were spoken, both Du Na and Zuo Rong became more and more confused.
Zuo Rong couldn't help asking: "Why does time slow down? And...will there be any consequences?"
Du Yalan: "I checked all the internal information of the Magic Association, but I didn't find the possible impact of slowing down time. But I found that, as early as the rise of the magic god Su, someone noticed the problem of slowing down time. There was even a great magician who might have fallen because of this. After that, at the initiative of a group of great magicians and Su, the way everyone gathered magic power changed."
Duna is of course very familiar with the contents in the history book of that world.
So the girl immediately continued: "Before that, the magicians drew magic power from the circulation. After that, the magicians had two new ways to absorb magic power. One was introverted meditation and the other was extroverted emotional connection."
Du Yalan nodded: "Magics no longer draw magic from magic circulation. As for the reason, it may be because... circulation and time are locked. The more magic power you use, the slower the time in that world will be. If it slows down to a certain level, no one knows what will happen. Perhaps, even the structure of molecules and atoms will collapse."
Zuo Rong opened his mouth wide, slowly closed his chin, and whispered: "So, magic is directly linked to time? And since time will slow down, this means that magic is limited and the magic circulation will eventually stop."
"That's why I have to leave that world no matter what," Du Yalan's expression never looked so serious when he said this, "because it is a world without a future, a place that will eventually be destroyed."
For a moment, Zuo Rong and Du Na were speechless and could only silently chew the meaning of the words just now.
These words are okay for Zuo Rong, but for Duna, they are no less than a nuclear strike from the worldview.
Du Yalan suddenly said: "Actually, I can guess that I am just a small piece controlled between the game between the God of Holy Light and the God of Magic. And Nana, your importance is much stronger than me. Any senior magician may discover your specialness and the truth of the magic world. But the premise is that you must be."
Duna: "I..."
Du Yalan: "Only your blood can inspire the holy light. Only your magic can allow us to cross the barriers of the world."
Duna recalled the time travel ceremony and murmured: "So, you asked me to input magic, not because you didn't have enough of yourself, but because of this reason?"
Du Yalan nodded seriously.
Silence, only the night wind whistled past the rooftop, carrying the hustle and bustle of the city that had not yet fallen asleep. The three of them stared at each other, and there was only a long silence between them.
"Um..." Duna rubbed her forehead with both hands, "Can you give me some time to digest? I..."
Du Yalan stretched out her hand, touched the girl's head, and finally returned to her motherly smile: "It's okay, you can digest it slowly, I didn't want to tell you so soon. But if you don't know the truth, it may be difficult for you to understand when facing the negotiations of the Magic Association next."
Zuo Rong: "Aunt Du, are you already planning to negotiate?"
Du Yalan took back his hand and said, "Of course. Negotiating with them is better than fighting with them to death. I am tired of fighting like this."
Zuo Rong: "So what kind of request do you think they will make? Do they already know what Nana is special?"
Du Yalan smiled: "Since we are going to negotiate with us and put our attitude so low, it is enough to show a lot of problems. If they don't know Nana's specialness, they can't explain this change."
Zuo Rong nodded and touched Du Na's head beside her, so the girl nodded passively.
Du Yalan: "I'll go down first. I will explain it to your father in a slightly simpler way, and by the way, I will perfunctorily treat Krimans and Shirley. There is no need to let them know the truth."
After saying that, she smiled and turned around and walked away.
Soon, only two brothers and sisters were left on the rooftop.
Zuo Rong brewed for a while and said, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, these truths don't have much impact. Our world's magic is thin and we cannot directly absorb the magic power in the environment. This means that time slowing down will not happen here, right?"
Duna whispered, "I think...but I really don't know what they are going to talk about. Wouldn't it be nice to let us live in this world in peace?"
