Chapter 418: 417、【Time-Space Manager】_1
“Of course, I’m interested!” Su Yu’s eyes lit up as he quickly responded.
“I’m also very interested!”
“Me too.”
Alyssa and Tina immediately responded, their faces filled with astonishment.
A real-time space manager? What sort of being would that be? Could they really meet one?
“Alright then.” Bernina stood up and gracefully smiled: “I’ll take you to meet the real-time space manager right now.”
As she finished speaking, countless water elements in the air converged around them, forming a large clouds under their feet. Stepping on it felt as if they were stepping on a thick layer of cotton.
The clouds carried them up high into the sky, like immortals cloud-riding in “Journey to the West”, flying towards the west of the village.
Standing on the cloud, Su Yu took a glance at the newbie village below, then turned around with a respectful face and asked, “Bernina, when can we meet the ‘Time-space Manager’?”
Bernina replied with a smile, “Now.”
At her words, she steered the cloud swiftly downwards towards the top of a mountain beneath them.
Su Yu blinked in surprise. Could it be that the supposed “Time-space Manager” was actually in the newbie village?
Upon closer inspection, they were now located in the Wolf King Valley to the west of Nolan Village, and Bernina was descending towards the top of the highest peak in the valley.
The 10th level Howling Moon Wolf King, which had been leading its underlings on a hunt, sensed their powerful presence and instantly lowered its head in submission, issuing a “howl” of surrender.
Bernina showed no interest in these wolves.
She steered the cloud downwards, and the four of them, along with a cat, landed safely on the summit.
After steadying themselves on the peak, Tina looked around then quietly asked Bernina, “Ancestor, are we waiting here for the ‘Time-space Manager’ to come?”
“Not exactly.” Bernina responded, her expression calm and unmoving.
She waved her right index finger and said, “Watch closely. In fact, the ‘Time-space Manager’ has always been here.”
Without waiting for the three of them to ask, Bernina began casting a spell.
Countless water elements rose around her body. Within a few seconds, they formed a gigantic “water sphere” in a radius of hundreds of meters around them.
Bernina manipulated the water sphere to move forward, and under her magical control, it transformed into a square water curtain hundreds of meters on each side.
Although the water curtain was hundreds of meters wide, it was only one meter thick. The curtain’s surface rippled with waves, appearing profoundly magical.
Suddenly, a blue light flickered in Bernina’s hand and a crystal-blue magic wand appeared instantly.
“Ha!”
Bernina wielded the wand with a forceful swing, and a large number of blue rays spread out from the tip of the wand, striking every part of the water curtain.
Crack!
The water curtain, like a large mirror, shattered into countless pieces under the impact of the blue light.
Faced with this scene, Su Yu, the three others, and the morning star, held their breath silently waiting for the subsequent development.
Then, something that shocked them happened!
As the water curtain shattered, it was as if they had broken through a Space Barrier to another space. Behind the water curtain, a mountain peak that reached high into the sky appeared!
Of course, the original location used to be an empty plain.
Su Yu looked closely at the mountain peak and found nothing unusual about it – flourishing trees, exposed rocks, and noisy birds… it was almost no different from other mountains.
However, the top of the mountain, the part that pierced into the clouds, was radiating a dazzling golden light! It’s as if someone had installed a miniature sun on the mountain top.
…
Seeing that Su Yu and the others were in shock, Bernina smiled at them: “This mountain is indeed real. It’s just that a powerful being has cast a massive illusion over the entire mountain, completely concealing it.”
“So that’s how it is,” Su Yu wiped his sweat.
What kind of powerful being could completely conceal such a tall mountain? Could it be the legendary “Planet Level cultivator”?
While Su Yu was still pondering, Bernina began casting a spell.
A large number of water elements once again condensed into clouds under their feet, carrying them towards the towering mountain in front of them.
As soon as they entered the area of the water curtain, Bernina swung her wand at the sky again.
Crack!
Purple Divine Thunder lit up in the sky above the clouds, and the clouds originally covering the mountain peak were instantly dispersed.
With the dispersal of the clouds, countless golden rays of light poured down from the peak of the mountain, irradiating Su Yu and his companions, as well as the cloud beneath them, in a golden brilliance.
Su Yu and the others, including Morning Star, quickly turned their gazes towards the mountain peak to find a tremendous — hourglass.
The height of this hourglass was at least 50 meters, in appearance it could be said to be a larger version of Su Yu’s [Zhongya Hourglass].
In the hourglass, countless golden grains of sand of time were slowly flowing. The space around the hourglass was distorted and deformed under the time law’s interference, displaying its extraordinary nature.
The three people and a cat said nothing, all looking towards Bernina, awaiting her introduction.
Bernina didn’t fail their expectations. As she gazed at the giant golden hourglass, she slowly introduced, “This is the real ‘Time-space Manager’, and I am actually its assistant.”
“That is the ‘Time-space Manager’?” Morning Star on Su Yu’s shoulder asked in disbelief: “I thought the ‘Time-space Manager’ was a foolish…cough cough, a human.”
The three of them agreed, nodding in unison. Like Morning Star, they had subconsciously imagined the “Time-space Manager” to be a human and hadn’t expected it to be a gigantic golden hourglass.
“It is indeed the Time-space Manager.” Bernina spoke seriously: “If you don’t believe it, you can use the Insight spell to check its information.”
“Really?” Su Yu was taken aback.
When the Insight spell is cast, it can be detected by the subject, especially when dealing with High-Ranking powerhouses, it is a serious provocation. Every day, there are many High-Ranking fights simply because of incorrect usage of the Insight spell.
Will their use of Insight on this great being provoke it?
“It’s fine.” Bernina confidently smiled: “The Time-space Manager has an artifact spirit. I used to communicate with the spirit a lot. Currently, the spirit is in a dormant state, so your use of [Insight] will not offend her.”
“Her?” Su Yu noted Bernina’s usage of the word. Could the artifact spirit be a female?
“That’s right, the artifact spirit is a female. Because she was created not long ago, when she speaks, she sounds like a 5 or 6-year-old girl, very childish.” Bernina chuckled while tapping her chin in recollection.
“But rest assured, she won’t blame you guys, I promise.”
“Alright then,” the three of them nodded in agreement.
Together, all four of them, including Morning Star, simultaneously cast the [Insight] or similar spells, targeting the gigantic golden hourglass of more than 50 meters high.
