Chapter 101: Some Plans Regarding Time Magic!
Thinking of this, Vetter began to organize all that information in his mind.
But the more he organized, the more odd his eyes became.
A moment later, Vetter turned his head to look at the rock wall that he had pierced through, and raw, staccato syllables rang out from his mouth, and the meaning was simple and straightforward - time flowed backwards!
As the last syllable fell, a hidden yet massive force erupted.
Then, the broken pieces of rock that had originally been thrown into the water by Vetter, under the pull of this force, flew backward along the trajectory it had originally fallen from, and then returned to the same position it had originally been in.
More and more pieces of broken rock returned to their original position, and soon, a stone wall covered with cracks, was molded in Vetter's shocked gaze, and, those cracks on it were also gradually disappearing.
When the dust settled, Vetter knocked on the rock wall in front of him, and the firm touch made him realize that all this was not a dream.
Vetter's eyes gradually brightened.
Was this the power of time?
If he was able to completely control time, then what kind of power should he be!
In addition, even if the current him hadn't fully grasped the power of time, he would still be able to do a lot of things by utilizing the reversal of time.
For example, using Time Reversal on himself when the elemental power in his body was depleted.
In this way, with no limitations on Blazing White Spit, those Abbey Dragon Beasts out there could not possibly be his opponents.
But soon, the words of Winters and his father, resounded within his head, causing him to gradually calm down, and Vetter shook his head fiercely.
“Those who play with time will eventually be played with by time, time is a double-edged sword.
And whether it's time magic, or time runes, it's all power left behind by his father, and doesn't belong to him, at least not right now.
If one overly relies on a power that doesn't belong to them, they will eventually be lost in it.”
Thinking like this, Vetter calmed down completely.
Touching the spot on his chest where his reverse scales were located, there was only one scale there that didn't fit in with the surroundings, and that didn't belong to his reverse scales.
He was just a young dragon!
After calming down, looking back at his previous thoughts, they were simply childish to the extreme.
Not to mention whether or not that approach would work, even if it did, it was a giant dragon's nest, and the number of dragon guards inside was uncountable.
And his Blazing White Spit was only capable of posing a threat to gold level dragon guards when taken by surprise.
However, once the other party had figured out the rhythm of the spitting breath, he, who only had this move, would either escape back in a sorry state, or be killed and become the other party's ration.
Moreover, his father had made it clear that time magic would consume the power of the time runes.
Since it could be consumed, it meant that the power of the Time Rune was limited.
Other than that, after that one shot of time rewind just now, he, who was previously sensitive to time, once again returned to his normal state, which further illustrated that the power of time runes was limited.
It was simply impossible to do the kind of situation he had thought of before.
Vetter, who had calmed down, looked at the stone wall in front of him, and his personality, which liked to explore, revealed itself.
The fact that he was able to use this magic directly wasn't because of how high his understanding of this magic was, but because this magic wasn't elemental magic.
Although the magic incantation was still in the ancient dragon language, it was not the power of the elements that was mobilized.
The power of the law was the power of words, and this, was beyond Vetter's understanding, so he wasn't prepared to delve deeper into it.
What he wanted to study was the principle and effect of this magic.
Was a time reversal really just a time reversal?
Vetter felt that it wasn't!
Because what was being reversed was only the matters and scope that he had already determined when he cast the magic, the time elsewhere was not affected in any way.
Moreover, under normal circumstances, an item that had reversed time, after the magic was completed and time returned to normal, it should have gone through the previous experience again.
However, the stone wall in front of them did not collapse again due to the completion of the magic.
The principle of time reversal, then, might not be reversing the object's time, but rather cutting off its original timeline and allowing it to enter another unknown timeline.
Just as his father had mentioned before, there were countless possibilities for the future, and time reversal merely cut off one of them.
So, why did it display a gesture of, well, reversing the flow of time?
This question, for Vetter, is very important, it relates to, when Vetter fights in the future, whether or not he can use time magic ......
Vetter stared blankly at the stone wall that shattered apart in front of him, but did not recover completely, while on his claw, he held up a dragon scale that was engraved with a fireball magic formation.
The stone wall shattered because it was caused by the fireball blast that Vetter unleashed with the magic formation.
And the lack of recovery referred to the fact that he had just used Time Reversal, however, the object of his spell was not the stone wall, but the magic array in his hand!
At this moment, the magic core on the magic array in his hand did not contain any less elemental power.
The time rewind took effect, and the magic formation returned to the state it was in before it was used, however, the stone wall that had been damaged by the magic formation did not recover.
“Sure enough, it's not like that!
It wasn't simply a possibility of cutting off the future!
Since it has already happened, it is still necessary to go back to the past if you want to cut off that possibility, so the time reversal should be both!
First letting time go back to the past, and then cutting off this one possibility, in this way, it is a complete time reversal.”
Vetter muttered, his thoughts churning.
Time was a very abstract concept, and he didn't dare to use the power of time on himself until he figured it out.
Therefore, Vetter did a series of tests.
In the end, it was determined that the time reversal he used out was a time reversal in the true sense of the word, and not just cutting off a certain timeline to achieve an effect similar to a time reversal.
The experiment was naturally not as simple as it appeared, and in order to come up with this result, Vetter purposely used his spiritual power to mark all the elemental forces contained within the magic core in advance.
The elemental forces didn't disappear after shattering the stone wall, they simply returned to the surrounding air.
And the elemental forces that were marked were still clearly felt by Vetter.
Then, he used Time Reversal on the magic array, and then, all of the magic elements that had been marked by Vetter, all of them returned to the core of the magic power according to the trajectory that they had dispersed before.
And this also meant that time magic could be used on its own!
As soon as he thought of it, Vetter attached “Sharpness” magic to his claws, and then he began to repair the cave, as long as the shaping magic was not lifted, it would continue to consume elemental power.
When Vetter felt it was time, he removed the molding magic.
Then, he cast Time Reversal on himself, and soon, Vetter felt that all of the elemental power he had consumed earlier, was back to full strength.
Moreover, the most important thing was that Time Reversal wouldn't affect items that weren't viewed as objects for casting.
The cave that Vetter had previously repaired remained the same as it was after the repair.
In other words, there wouldn't be an embarrassing scene where Vetter cast Time Reversal on himself and his opponent returned with full blood after Vetter and another dragon fought and both dragons were seriously injured.
“Tsk!”
Realizing this, Vetter couldn't help but sigh in his heart, his somewhat immodest-sounding father had really left him with one of the strongest means of preserving his life.
As long as he wasn't killed in seconds, as long as the power of the Laws within the Time Rune was sufficient, he would be able to remain at his peak forever.
And, furthermore, thinking about it, he might have obtained, the ability that almost all creatures could only dream of - eternal life!
Uh ...... well, that's not realistic!
The alchemy taught by Lofa had taught him that equivalence was the eternal law of this world.
Vetter believed that he, now, was indeed capable of eternal life.
Utilizing the magic of time rewind, he was able to keep himself at a certain point in time forever, and, the power of the laws in the runes of time was enough to support such consumption.
Because the current him was not very strong, the overall energy contained was very small.
Comparing the power of the Laws in the Time Rune to a person, then, the current Vetter was a ring, and there was no problem if you let the person wear the ring forever!
However, as he grows older, Vetter's strength grows, and so does the energy he contains as a whole.
This means that he will go from a ring, to a cell phone, a brick, a large lapis lazuli, or even a car.
However, the person would not change.
Can a person live holding a car all the time?
Just kidding, you can't even lift it!
This showed that when one day in the future, after Vetter had grown to a certain level, time rewinding would lose its effect on him!
Of course, the premise was that he hadn't made any progress in the field of time.
