Chapter 188: Chapter 127: All Humanity Loses 12 Hours (Extended Chapter)

"29:26..."

"How is this possible? If it’s two days and one night... we should still have forty-one hours left until the crossover..."

Lin Chen was a bit unsure.

He asked, "Brother Li, what time is it now?"

Li Nian glanced at the time on his wristband and said:

"It’s twelve noon..."

"Don’t be fooled by the darkness; I reckon this solar eclipse will end soon, right?"

Lin Chen frowned. He looked at the time on his own wristband, which also showed a little past 12 noon.

But according to the countdown on his arm...

It should be around 12 midnight.

With this in mind, Lin Chen’s expression turned serious.

He said, "Brother Li, please turn around, we need to head back to the Martial Arts Palace..."

...

Moments later, at the Martial Arts Palace.

Lin Chen stood before Wang Lishan, Elder Long, and others, with a solemn expression:

"Uncle Wang, I think... I need to tell you something..."

He pointed up at the stars and the moon and said:

"I have a hypothesis... from day to night, this might not be a natural anomaly."

"Instead... we might have lost 12 hours!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lishan was puzzled.

"You mean all of humanity lost twelve hours? What... does that mean?"

Attempting to clarify his speculation, Lin Chen explained:

"Uncle Wang, humans cannot actually feel the existence of time itself; we can only judge the passage of time through changes in external objects..."

"For example, sunrise and sunset, and the motion of pendulums... we use these to divide time."

"But what if that ’solar eclipse’ wasn’t an anomaly... but indeed twelve hours passed in that moment?"

"It’s just that the 12 hours that passed were imperceptible to us, only daybreak and nightfall gave us a clue."

"Or perhaps, starting today, our noon will be night, midnight will be daylight..."

"..."

After several explanations, Wang Lishan reluctantly understood and asked:

"You mean the current time is one in the afternoon, but it’s actually one in the morning?"

"Do you have any evidence?"

Lin Chen nodded and raised his arm to show the countdown.

"Yes, the evidence is... only less than 29 hours remain until my next crossover..."

Wang Lishan was startled upon hearing this.

Since Lin Chen reported it to the state, his crossover time has been thoroughly documented.

The Martial Arts Palace even installed a giant digital clock to prevent missing Lin Chen’s crossover time.

He clearly remembered that Lin Chen’s next crossover should be in 40 hours...

"Hmm, is it possible that your crossover time has moved up?"

"Maybe, in a while, the sky will brighten again?"

Wang Lishan looked up, where there was no sign of the sky brightening.

Lin Chen shook his head and said:

"Of course, that’s also a possibility... so I’m saying it’s just a conjecture." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"The best way to verify it is naturally to wait another 12 hours... If it’s continuously day-night reversed, this proves my guess was right!"

After a pause, Lin Chen continued:

"However, if it’s a full half-day solar eclipse... it might cause unnecessary panic as well..."

"So, I think we need to be prepared in advance."

A solar eclipse or sudden darkness usually lasts only for a brief period, like a few minutes.

But so far, it has lasted more than half an hour, and it’s still not brightening.

If it continues this way, humans’ noon at 12 o’clock will equate to nighttime.

Midnight will equate to noon...

Not to mention the potential panic, just the day-night reversal could have a massive impact on human life and society.

It might even lead to global turmoil.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lishan looked at his communication wristband and went online.

Sure enough, many netizens had already started discussing this darkening event online.

It’s not limited to domestically... foreign netizens were also discussing this matter.

In the Northern Hemisphere, day turned to night.

In the Southern Hemisphere, night turned to day.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Lishan made a phone call.

"Hello? Chen..."

"Quickly draft an announcement about a meteor swarm passing by Blue Star to explain the change in Blue Star’s sky to the public..."

After hanging up, Wang Lishan said to Lin Chen:

"If it indeed accelerated the world by twelve hours, the power of this Martial Spirit is truly terrifying..."

"Among the known Martial Spirit phenomena, none seem this powerful... and you, after all, have just awakened your Martial Spirit."

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said:

"Uncle Wang, I think you misunderstood something... the Zhu Jiuyin is different from ordinary Summoning Series Martial Spirits..."

"It seems to require no growth, and all I have to do is gradually mobilize and master its power..."

Ordinary Summoning Series Martial Spirits, even one like Elder Long’s True Dragon Martial Spirit.

Are in their infancy when they first manifest, with limited capabilities, growing alongside their master.

But Zhu Jiuyin is different; when Lin Chen encountered it, it was already a complete form!

It seems to have been asleep for too long, still somewhat unaccustomed...

Because throughout countless time streams, there is only one Zhu Jiuyin.

And what Lin Chen must do is, as long as he enhances his own strength, he can increasingly mobilize Zhu Jiuyin’s power...

Upon hearing this, Wang Lishan suddenly understood and nodded:

"I see. If that’s the case, then accelerating the world by 12 hours makes sense..."

Speaking of this, Wang Lishan sighed bitterly:

"However! Explaining this phenomenon is quite troublesome, seems like we can only tell a grand lie to the entire world..."

At this moment, Wang Lishan, Elder Long, and Elder Jiang all received an emergency message.
