155 Chaotic Ti
Selma Payne’s POV:
This would allow us to rescue them in ti.
In addition, the mark also had a simple communication function. It would glow when it was stained with blood, and others could receive a signal through this point.
Perhaps we’d accidentally broken through so ‘barrier’, and the cave had beco deeper. It was three tis longer than the ti I spent exploring the cave, but there was still no signal from Frank.
According to the plan, the next group would set off at this ti.
However, after the sa ti had passed for the second team, there was still no signal, not even from Frank’s team.
The temperature was even lower now, and everyone trembled visibly. We had no choice but to put on the assault suits from the ‘base’s’ resources, but the effect was insignificant.
The third group set off.
This ti, a signal ca in half the ti. The mark was only glowing and not burning, which ant that one of the teams had safely found so clues.
According to our plan, everyone else could set off now, and only my group was left.
We didn’t know what was going on ahead. We tried to bring food, water, and other supplies to be safe.
The deep cave grew darker and darker. I even had a strange feeling that this darkness wasn’t due to the lack of light but rather the inferior quality of the ‘server’ itself.
The people who made this place didn’t program the lighting well.
After only twenty minutes, we encountered an unexpected group – Frank’s group.
“I thought Sam’s group would be first.” He was also shocked. “You guys changed the order?”
“No, the order hasn’t changed. We’re the last group.” I was sure that I didn’t et anyone on the way or encounter any forks.
Frank looked at the ti and frowned. “Wait, how long have you been waiting?”
“Almost three hours.”
“But we’ve only left for less than an hour.” He showed his watch.
I also showed him my watch, and the different hands made our hearts sink.
“The law of ti is chaotic here,” I said irritatedly. “Maybe the law of space is not working, or we would have passed the first two groups. Did you see a fork in the road?”
“No, I haven’t.”
As expected, this was a poor-quality ‘server’. Even the most basic frawork was not built.
This might be good news because it ant that we could find the ‘server’s’ bugs, but at the sa ti, it was bad news. The people who built the ‘server’ obviously didn’t put much effort into it and didn’t care about our lives.
The experienced Frank quickly ca up with a solution. “From now on, we’ll leave a mark on the rock wall every five minutes, indicating that we’ve t and our respective tis. Maybe the other groups can see it. This will help them discover the problem and catch up with us.”
As he spoke, the mark glowed again.
“Did you guys send out a signal just now?” I asked.
“No,” said Frank, shaking his head.
My group hadn’t reached the agreed ti yet.
This ant soone from the other two groups had already sent a signal. One of the groups was faster than all the other groups, while the other group was slower than that group, slower than Frank and my group.
My group waited for more than three hours, but less than an hour passed for Frank’s group. This ant that my group’s ti was faster than Frank’s group’s.
I didn’t know if the ti would be the sa when we t. For now, I could only mark the walls, as Frank said.
I suggested, “Let’s do it this way. We can make a serial number on the mark and get the other two groups to send the signal according to their group number and the serial number of the mark. If the second group reached the first mark, he would have them flash the mark twice, then once again. The second mark would flash twice, then twice again, and so on. We’ll use this to calculate our ti difference.”
“Good idea.”
We’d leave the first number. My ti was 10:30, and Frank’s was 8:40.
The difference between us was one hour and fifty minutes.
For the second number, I counted that five minutes had passed, but the ti on my watch was already 10:45, and Fred’s ti was 8:45.
“Your ti flow is normal,” I said. “Ours has beco faster.”
“It looks like it, but it has only been an hour and forty-five minutes since we set off. You’re two and a half tis faster than .
“Furthermore, the ti flow rate between us is increasing. My ti is flowing exponentially faster.”
This was not good news. Although there were no ominous signs so far, the problem of the ti was not small. The unexpected premonition was getting stronger and stronger.
At this mont, the mark flashed again.
This ti, it flashed three tis, indicating that it was the second group. However, it blinked four more tis!
The fourth?
But we hadn’t even made the fourth mark yet!
We were all stunned.
A terrifying silence spread, and Dorothy said dryly, “If I haven’t forgotten what I’ve learned in kindergarten, we’ve only just left the second mark, right?”
