Chapter 1845 – The Lost 22

　　Moonlight sprinkled down the boundless ice field, and in this snow-white world, several figures were cautiously advancing.

　　Gou Bi Luo was about to carve a number on the ice surface under his feet, but just halfway through the drawing, No. 22’s voice suddenly rang out:

　　”Wait.”

　　”What is it Holy Lord?” Gubilo looked up in confusion.

　　No. 22 used the [King’s Sword], scratching the half-written number, and said in a deep voice:

　　”We can’t use this kind of character that others can understand with a glance, or else we’ll carve so many of them, and we might end up cheapening them …… We have to mark time with a character that only we can read.”

　　The crowd suddenly realized.

　　”What character should we use then?”

　　No. 22 pondered for a moment and sketched on the ground, “Let’s agree, this character stands for 1, this stands for 2, and this stands for ……”

　　The few people from [God’s Desire Paradise] gathered around and carefully studied No. 22’s self-created characters, and when they had memorized them all, they couldn’t help but clap their hands in praise.

　　”Worthy of being a Holy Lord, it’s really far-sighted!”

　　”Yes, now we can read his characters and he can’t read ours! There are still more of us than him, we have the advantage!”

　　”Grand Xia’s Commander Lin, it’s nothing more than that.”

　　”……”

　　In the midst of several people’s boasting, No. 22 used his sword to forcefully carve a self-created “0” character into the ice, then said indifferently:

　　”Let’s go.”

　　After the crowd took a step and arrived at another space-time, they looked back and the character from earlier had disappeared.

　　”I know! That’s because we’re now in a time that’s earlier than just a moment ago.” With a clap of his hands, Gou Bi Luo excitedly snatched the answer.

　　”For something so simple, why do I need you to say it?” The other Lord God gave him a blank look.

　　The 22nd carved a “-1” into the ground and continued on their way.

　　When they turned around again, they still couldn’t see the two characters.

　　”It’s earlier here.” Gubilo spoke with renewed certainty.

　　The crowd left another mark as they did and continued to walk forward for several consecutive steps, but every time they turned back, they couldn’t see the slightest mark.

　　”Strange …… how all the way to the past time? Are we finding our way out of the labyrinth?” A Subgod whispered suspiciously.

　　At this time, Gubilo also stopped talking, they looked at each other, vaguely feeling that something wasn’t quite right.

　　This time they didn’t move forward again, but changed direction to move forward, and after taking several steps one after another, they reversed their direction and continued walking …… But no matter how they walked, the imprints left behind before were as if they had never existed before, and the ice surface was smooth and incomparable.

　　”How can this be …… obviously we have completely imitated his movements, why can’t we see the marks we carved?” Gou Bi Luo was frozen in place.

　　To this point, even if slow as Gou Bi Luo, also realized that things are not right, they have walked so far, changed direction so many times, engraved imprints at least hundreds, but every step can not be seen before engraved any imprints …… They can not have been in the “past” to the “Right?

　　”Then again, why do I feel that the location of these icebergs nearby is not quite the same as before?” Sub-God carefully opened his mouth.

　　Number 22 was frowning and thinking about where the problem was, and when he heard these words, he spoke without any good reason:

　　”Idiot, this is the Antarctic ice sheet, the terrain will constantly change with the climate, the terrain will naturally be different at every time, and the longer the span of time, the greater the change will be ……”

　　Before the words fell, No. 22 seemed to think of something, and his body shook violently!

　　”Ice Plains …… Ice Plains …… “22 kept repeating these two words, and his face suddenly turned white.

　　”Holy Lord, what have you discovered?” Gubilo asked.

　　”Damn …… wrong! All wrong!!!” No. 22 gritted his teeth and spoke, “What’s under our feet is ice! Ice melts and condenses too quickly, and even if we leave a mark on this, even if it’s deeper, it will all recover in just a day or two! All the marks we left behind are simply ineffective!”

　　Hearing these words, it was as if thunder had exploded in the ears of the crowd!

　　They froze in place at the same time.

　　Ice …… No wonder they couldn’t see the marks they once left behind no matter which direction they went, because these marks were on the ice field, and they simply couldn’t exist for long, it was like throwing a stone to mark a location on an infinite sea, and the stone had just been thrown out, and then it sank to the bottom of the sea, so who knew where the place that they had just thrown it to was?

　　”But …… but how did Lin Qiye manage to make the mark remain?!” Gou Bi Luo froze for a long time and asked the most unbelievable one.

　　”Everyone leaves imprints on the ice, why did his last so long?”

　　The crowd was in a daze.

　　Number 22 took a deep breath and slowly spoke:

　　”Forget it …… Right now, our only hope is to turn around and look for the imprint Lin Qiye left behind, as long as we can find his imprint, we can get back on track and not get lost.”

　　A Sub God looked around, his expression flashed with a touch of hesitation, “Which direction did we just …… come from?”

　　The remaining few hearts thumped as they similarly looked around.

　　On the barren ice field, there were only a few icebergs left standing, but these icebergs couldn’t provide the slightest location pointing, because once they took another step, they would immediately disappear …… and then far away, there was only fuzzy and inverted light left.

　　But within a space of a hundred meters, thousands of different times were stacked together, and even the light was distorted enough.

　　A hundred meters was the furthest they could see …… but the distance between the imprint left by Lin Qiye and them was clearly much higher than that.

　　They couldn’t find their way back.

　　”I’ve done some calculations, we’ve moved less than a kilometer at most since we left Lin Qiye, and even if our vision is now blocked by all this overlapping time, if we fly up into the sky, we should be able to see it easily.” Gou Bi Luo thought seriously for a moment, then a flash of brilliance flashed in his eyes and his figure rose into the air!

　　Seeing this scene, No.22’s eyes shrunk, and immediately spoke, “Wait ……”

　　Before the second word “wait” was uttered, Gubilo’s figure disappeared into thin air right above the crowd, no more than five meters away from their height.

　　In this labyrinth, not only the front and back, left and right movement will trigger time …… up or down, is also the same.

　　The crowd waited in place for a long time, but also did not see the figure of 具比罗 back, it seems that he was flying in the process, traversed more than vertical space, so that he wanted to find the crowd now in this piece of ice, is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

　　Originally, there were still more than ten people in [God’s Desire Paradise], but now there were only three people left.

　　No. 22’s face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

　　”Holy …… Holy Lord ……,” the only remaining Lord God gulped, “What do we do next?”

　　”What else can …… we do? Wait for death where we are?”

　　Number 22 gritted his teeth and spoke, “Go! Find a random direction and keep going forward!”
