Chapter 58 The Bronze Puzzle

Time flow rate may be a very sensitive topic in this world.

As early as ancient times, there was a saying that one day in the sky and one year in the ground. In modern times, with the introduction of the theory of relativity, time has gradually stopped being an absolute variable. For example, the phenomenon of slow shrinking of the ruler and clock shrinking with speed factors, such as the twin paradox about the light-speed spacecraft.

In short, the time flow rate has gradually become a recognized thing but difficult to apply.

However, if there is a satellite orbiting the earth at sub-light speed, then this satellite can infinitely approach the situation in heaven where one day is in heaven and one year underground.

"How much is the time flow rate approximately?" John Smith asked.

At this point, I can only choose to believe, and what is the meaning of Roland's lying now, John Smith doesn't know, but at least one thing Roland said is right. Apart from his own identity, the ones Roland said so far have no lies, but they have not revealed them all.

Even Roland's identity itself can be explained by his memory that he did not fully restore to his memory at that time.

"It's about one hundred to one," said Roland. "One second here is about one hundred seconds in the bronze door, but it's hard to test out exactly what it is, and it's not completely stable."

"What about the puzzle?" John Smith asked, "Are the puzzles inside the bronze door the same?"

If the same is true, then Roland did not prompt Lu Yuan and others at the first time, then his intentions would be punished.

"We used to think the same," Roland said. "But when the first pair of returners told us what they saw, the second pair still disappeared after the Bronze Gate and did not come back, we gradually realized that the puzzle behind the Bronze Gate was not exactly the same."

"After all, if it is true, you can use the human sea tactics to test the final exhaustive results little by little."

"So there is more than one puzzle behind the bronze door that is the correct answer."

John Smith nodded: "So how many answers to puzzles have you mastered in total?"

Roland stretched out four fingers: "We paid the price of 164 people and got answers to four effective world puzzles in total. Of course, after getting the answer to the first pair, we told us what we were facing behind the bronze door, so the success rate will be greatly increased next."

"So what if the puzzle is not solved?" John Smith continued, "Is it a world that will be trapped in the bronze door forever?"

If, as Roland said, the time flow rate inside and outside the bronze door is more than a hundred times that outside the bronze door, then more than ten years have passed. If the person inside has not come out, wouldn’t he be trapped for more than a thousand years?

Can you imagine yourself trapped in an endless prison for more than a thousand years?

This may be probably the reason why the bronze door requires two living bodies to enter the bronze door in one group.

If it were only one person, these long and lonely years would definitely drive them crazy.

"We thought so, too," Roland said with a little implicit statement: "But later, we found out that we were wrong."

"How did you find out?" John Smith asked.

Since it is said that after being sucked into the bronze door, there will never be a chance to come out without solving the puzzle, how could Roland know that the missing expedition members died, rather than being trapped in the bronze door and being subjected to a long life imprisonment?

"Because of the bronze door, I started to spit out something out." Roland said lightly: "At first I spit out some fragments of my clothes, but later it seemed that my intelligence improved and I began to spit out the identity nameplate."

Roland looked at John Smith: "It's the identity plate that can prove the identity of the missing person."

"It seems that the intelligence of the Bronze Gate itself is also evolving, and it slowly understands the meaning of these things." Roland sighed: "Later, after summarizing, each pair of testers will probably be swallowed up by the Bronze Gate itself after about 72 hours, that is, about 300 days in the Bronze Gate world."

"However, the first couple stayed in the bronze door for a longer time, probably because the space inside the bronze door was relatively abundant at that time."

Roland made such a guess.

In his guess, the Bronze Gate is not so much a lifeless dead object, but rather a magical existence with its own thinking that can continue to grow.

"What are those puzzles about?" John Smith continued.

"At present, we have summarized, there are mathematics, physics, and some about biology, and the last one is about geography." Roland looked at John Smith: "I know, this is very unfriendly to liberal arts students, but the world puzzles of the Bronze Gate seem to be all related to science. The only difficult thing is that it will not talk about this question directly and write it clearly."

"After all, we have to consider that the bronze door is not a major premise made by humans, and it cannot draw questions in words."

"So, instead, it chooses to use the world to draw questions."

"After entering the Bronze Gate, the big world you face is a puzzle in itself."

"This is the first level after the Bronze Gate."

"It is necessary to prove the specific technological level of the living beings entering."

"It can be said that if a group of apes, or creatures like bats and mice accidentally touched the bronze door, then it would be absolutely impossible to solve the first puzzle of the bronze door and enter the next field."

"Is the world puzzle?" John Smith fell into deep thought.

This is probably the same as when you are taking the exam, the teacher always reminds you how important it is to review questions.

And you have to find out the original intention of the questioner before you can try to solve this question.

If you still have professional knowledge, then any question will be difficult for those who have no introduction.

And, as Roland said, this bronze door is very unfriendly to liberal arts students.

It seems that geography is also a liberal arts, but the Bronze Gate will definitely not ask you what kind of industry is suitable for the development of such a terrain, but instead prefers more hardcore things like planetary geography.

And the demeanor of eating it if you can't solve it for 300 days without saying anything, it feels like a devilish college entrance examination.

"So, how many levels are there in the Bronze Gate?"

Due to limited time, John Smith went straight to the next topic and looked at Roland.

Roland smiled and looked at John Smith: "If I don't know."

"Do you believe it or not?"
