Purple Change Grade Magic Stones were a rare resource. Even a complete vein might not contain a purple stone the size of a fingertip.
Most people in the Lost Land would never see one in their entire lives. A certain someone was lucky enough to have two of them. The largest one was used to make a coffin. The last small one was left behind after Fen had transformed her body and absorbed a magic stone vein. As for the small one, it was also broken off in small pieces one after another to be used. The fingernail-sized purple stone in his hand was the last of his stock.
After completing the plan that combined Liz Dean's Truth and Blank Slate Writing, Lin could not wait to complete the new filter device that he was going to attach to the astronomical telescope. So, he dove into his own workshop, took out all the magic materials he had kept, and started crafting.
It was a certain someone's bad habit. Whenever he was triggered, he would forget to eat and sleep to finish things. In addition, he had a bad habit of staying up late. So he kept telling himself that he would just do a little more and go to sleep immediately. The external lens named the Truth Filter was completed in the middle of the night.
He should have gone to catch up on sleep because not long after, before the sun rose, he had to set off to the Abyss for today's observation work. Although he hadn't reached the stage of official stargazing, the more he could detect the environment, the more helpful it would be for what he wanted to do.
But for some reason, a certain someone just couldn't sit still today. He even wanted to lie down and sleep for a while. The eagerness in his heart was something he had never felt before.
Thinking about what would happen next, the two apprentices were already familiar with the work, so he didn't have to keep an eye on them. Fen would also help to set off to the Abyss. Although this Lich wasn't as flexible as a certain someone in the use of Blink, she could go anywhere she wanted whenever she wanted.
And as long as the two apprentices started to work, they would occupy the astronomical telescope, so he couldn't do the experiment he wanted to do. After all, this was their main job. In order to perfect the observation records, they would have to spend a lot of time. To be honest, he felt a little apologetic for delaying the two girls' time for his own experiment.
So, go early?
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Lin couldn't sit still anymore.
Moreover, if the test worked, perhaps the two girls' original work could come to an end. Next, he had to consider the matter of official stargazing.
Lin's immediate thought was to do it as soon as he thought of it! Now that the item had been completed, he would be unwilling to go to sleep without confirming whether it could be used. After leaving a message for the two girls and tidying up, Lin used Blink to arrive at the roof of Demon Lord Sha Bin's castle in the Abyss.
The demon guard guarding the binoculars in the middle of the night leaned on the spear on the ground. Dizzy, he tried his best not to fall to the ground. As soon as he saw someone appear in front of him, he immediately got up in a panic. In particular, there was a stench unique to humans on the other party's body. This made the demon guard even more nervous, and he hurriedly pushed his spear forward.
Seeing the spear coming, Lin dodged to the side and did not attack directly. As expected, when the Evil Demon Guard saw clearly who it was, it hurriedly retracted its spear and said in a trembling voice, "Sir … Sir Mage. I … "
"It's okay, I don't blame you. I know how hard it is to keep watch. Also, I don't come here at a normal time, I don't blame you for not noticing. Now, I can go and do my thing. "Lin said.
As if the demon had been pardoned, it hurriedly retracted its spear and made way. After Lin nodded his head in acknowledgement, he walked into the temporary stargazing tent. Although he could directly use Blink to enter, it was not like he was going to do anything sneaky today. It was better to do it openly. At least it would let people be mentally prepared and they would not treat him as an enemy when they saw him.
Walking under the temporary tent, the telescope was set up alone in the same place. The place where the coffin was placed was empty, because every time they left, they would not forget to take the coffin with them. Other than the coffin, there were also a few sets of tables and chairs placed here for homework.
From the special silk bag, he took out the telescope lens and carefully put it in. Lin tested it a little. What he saw in the eyepiece was the same as the past few days. No matter how he adjusted the focal length, no matter where he looked, it was still gray.
Then, from another pocket, he took out the Truth Filter and hung it in front of the objective lens. Also, he used the screws carefully to prevent this expensive filter from falling to the ground due to any collision or improper use. It would hurt in his heart.
Because the Truth Filter was made of Purple Change Grade Magic Stones, Lin Feng made some slight adjustments to the design and easily copied the program and database system used in the First Coffin to the Truth Filter's purple stone. In this way, the entire operation did not need to rely on the coffin anymore. Of course, there was no need to take that cumbersome thing apart and bring it back and forth.
After everything was ready, Lin rubbed his hands excitedly. Then, with a blink of his eyes, half of Tai's vision changed to the view under the telescope. Although he was not used to this method of embedding the field of vision instead of pulling out the Water Mirror screen in the beginning, after getting used to having a game-like HUD in the field of vision, it was more useful than being limited by the size of the Water Mirror.
He replaced the magic stone that was embedded in the telescope tube. A fleeting stream of light indicated that the magic authority had already flowed into the magic array patterns hidden under the whole set of telescopes. At the same time, the magic array of the Truth Filter was ready.
Lin's hands grabbed at the air randomly. In fact, he was making the final adjustments in his field of vision. Then, he pressed the virtual switch to run!
Suddenly, the scene under the telescope in his field of vision had a screen refresh effect. Every time he scanned from top to bottom, he could see that the scene in front of him had changed a little. The ashes that seemed to forever cover the sky of the Abyss were peeled off layer by layer. All the scattering and refraction phenomena were also processed by the program to restore the scene after the interference as much as possible.
Finally, Lin saw the familiar starry sky again. Although the constellations were unfamiliar, whether it was the Milky Way across the sky or the blinking stars that were like eyes, they all explained one thing. Even if the location of the Abyss might not be the same universe as the maze, some of the basic laws of physics should be similar.
After having a preliminary understanding, how could Lin not move the telescope's direction? He wanted to see how beautiful and unique the sky on this different land was.
Especially the huge alien creatures hanging high in the sky. They were hiding in the shadows that covered the starry sky. Every piece of darkness without starlight usually meant that there was a monster floating in the universe, and it was very close to the Abyss. These monsters all had their eyes closed. If Lin recognized that the position of their eyes was indeed their eyes.
…
Something seemed wrong.
Were there such dangerous creatures in the universe close to the maze? And from such a long distance, he could still feel their size through the telescope. It could be imagined that when they came in front of him, the feeling might not be facing a mountain, but a planet-level behemoth.
But what were these creatures? Lin Zheng tried to make a preliminary identification based on the characteristics of their bodies. But what he didn't expect was that as long as the telescope's lens was aimed at any creature and he adjusted the focal length, hoping to see more clearly, the creatures on the other side of the lens seemed to wake up and opened their eyes … Well, anyway, all the eyes on their bodies would open and look over.
What on earth were these strange creatures? In the process of thinking, a sentence suddenly occupied his mind. "When you stare at the Abyss, the Abyss is also staring at you."
This sentence was used in many places, but the most terrifying was that in the system of the Cthulhu Mythos, it specifically referred to those indescribable existences.
…
F * ck, did I hit the jackpot?
Judging from the current conditions, the Abyss should also be a planet, but it was a lonely planet floating among many sleeping Outer Gods. What kind of rock area was this? Just thinking about it would make one collapse.
And the most troublesome thing was that because of his observation, he seemed to have attracted the attention of these indescribable creatures. It made them cast their gazes into the Abyss, towards him who was peeping at them.
He should have turned off the telescope's reality filter function at the first moment. But it was as if someone was possessed. He only wanted to take one more look at those indescribable creatures. He wanted to see where their danger came from or where the outside world was.
After all, the most frightening part of these existences was that they were unknown. When the layers of unknown veils were removed, perhaps they were not that terrifying at all. He was completely scaring himself, and in the end, he was so scared that he went crazy.
But the part that someone did not consider was that the reason he could look directly at these existences was mainly because of the dimensionality reduction method engraved on the Dimensional Tower to deal with high-dimensional information. This method allowed him to avoid the interference of the high-dimensional information that he could not understand.
However, what Lin could do was only to avoid the damage caused by the high-dimensional information. The existence of these indescribable creatures brought about all kinds of negative effects, and someone took them all in without missing a single one.
Just as he stood on the path of courting death and walked further and further away, the second wave of danger arrived!
The attitude of the Abyss, which was also the strongest Demon Lords of the Abyss, descended one after another in the sky above or near Sha Bin's castle. In the castle, all the Demons of various sizes, including the Demon Lord Sha Bin, were curled up on the ground. Their combat power was directly reduced by more than half. This was the suppression of the Demon rank, and also a manifestation of the Abyss Will's fury.
When the people, things, and objects in the Abyss could not see those indescribable existences floating in the nearby universe, the Abyss seemed to be transparent or invisible. It would not be cared about by anything. But when someone in the Abyss cast their gaze on those indescribable creatures, this invisible or transparent effect would disappear.
That was to say, the relationship between the Abyss and the Outer Gods, who were originally able to live peacefully and peacefully, was now heading towards an unpredictable future. And the responsibility for this mistake was, of course, on someone. Therefore, the fury of the Demons and the Abyss Will was not so difficult to understand.
