Because the rules of the mechanical doll's path were relatively simple, there was no need to make a fuss about the details.
Therefore, when they reached the wooden stairs, they would easily overlook the changes.
If he had neglected the problem of his left and right feet, he would probably have been stuck for a long time before he realized it. Fortunately, Laplace's observation skills were good. Otherwise, they would have been stuck in this trap for a long time.
After that, the golem would occasionally stop and switch legs to move forward.
But this time, it could no longer trap them.
Soon, they reached the end of the wooden stairs, where the light source was.
At first, he thought the glowing surface was a mirror. But when he got closer, he realized that it was some kind of reflective bubble.
It was similar to the soap bubbles children used to blow.
However, the "bubble" in front of them was several times bigger. It was only a little smaller than the crystal ball summoned by the Labyrinth Guardian.
The bubble floated on top of the stairs. The surface of the bubble reflected colorful light like a dreamy convex mirror, which showed the figures of Angor and Laplace in different shapes.
The soap bubble was very thin, and one could clearly see that there was nothing inside. There was nothing strange about it.
As Angor wondered what the bubble meant, the golem suddenly stepped forward and entered the bubble.
Next, the golem waved a hand at Angor and Laplace.
It slowly floated up along with the bubble.
Soon, they reached the dark void where they could not see with their eyes.
As the old bubble disappeared, a new one appeared at the end of the stairs. The floating light on the surface seemed to be urging them to move faster.
"It's telling us to sit on it," Laplace said.
Angor nodded. Without a doubt, the golem entering the bubble was a demonstration for them.
He reckoned that this was also a new path — the path of soap bubbles.
But now, there was a new problem.
How many people could a soap bubble contain? Would they enter the same bubble together? Or could it be that a soap bubble could hold one person and wait for a new soap bubble to appear for another person to enter?
But if he waited, would there really be new soap bubbles?
Angor pondered for a moment before he said, "It's hard to say. Let's take a chance. Maybe we can listen to the song "Welcome home" again. "
Song "Welcome home"? It took Laplace two seconds to realize that Angor was talking about the song the golem hummed when it flew back to the cliff.
Laplace ignored Angor's new words and asked, "What do you want to bet on?"
Angor considered. "I'll bet that a bubble can only hold one person."
Laplace also nodded. "I also think that a soap bubble can only hold one person."
If a bubble could hold more than one person, the golem should have stopped and waited. Since the mechanical doll left by itself, then the soap bubble could only hold one person.
After some discussion, they decided that Angor would step into the bubble first.
"Then I'll head inside first," Angor said and stepped forward.
It was as if his body had passed through a layer of membrane, and he smoothly entered the soap bubble. He could breathe freely inside, and there was no strange feeling.
When he looked outside, he could clearly see what was happening outside.
When he saw Laplace waving a hand at him, the scene outside changed quickly.
Laplace's figure was also rapidly shrinking.
The bubble was rising into the air.
He could see what was going on outside through the bubble, but he did not feel anything inside. It was as if the scene outside the bubble was just a moving screen. He did not feel dizzy at all when he was moving so fast.
Soon, Laplace's figure disappeared from Angor's sight.
However, before Laplace disappeared, Angor saw a new soap bubble coming from the wooden stairs.
The soap bubble appeared out of nowhere and stopped in front of Laplace, as if it had appeared out of thin air.
Angor sighed in relief when he saw the bubbles.
He made the right bet.
A soap bubble corresponded to a person. Angor didn't feel so guilty. If he made a mistake this time, they would have to run again.
Thank goodness … thank goodness …
For the next five minutes, Angor felt as if he was trapped in a small, dark room while the bubble took him to an unknown place.
There was nothing but darkness outside. There were no landmarks, so Angor couldn't tell if the bubble was moving at all.
Five minutes later, the bubble finally stopped. The wall of the bubble broke into light spots and disappeared.
Meanwhile, Angor landed on the ground steadily.
He looked around.
It was quiet. The fluorescent stones hanging on the walls gave off a dim green light. The light was weak, but Angor could still see what was going on.
This should be a long corridor. There were some incomplete murals on both sides of the corridor.
It looked exactly the same as the graveyard corridor. The only thing missing was the markings installed by the crystal eyes.
Without a doubt, he was out of the mosaic space.
Angor didn't know how the bubble took him out of the mosaic space. It only took a blink of an eye for him to arrive at this corridor.
He turned around and saw a solid wall behind him. Nothing seemed to be there.
But he believed that there must be an exit to the mosaic space nearby.
However, he didn't know where the entrance to this mosaic space was.
But he wasn't in a hurry. If this was the so-called "hidden space", Laplace would be here soon.
Maybe he could get a glimpse of it?
As soon as he thought about it, he saw another bubble beside him.
He didn't even have time to find out where the bubble came from before it shattered into pieces of light and disappeared.
Only Laplace was left inside the bubble.
…
Angor and Laplace talked for a while.
Laplace didn't sense any space ripples either.
"The mosaic space is attached to this ruin," Laplace said. "It's very stable and stealthy. If not for the owner of this ruin, we wouldn't be able to find its source."
Mosaic space wasn't a complicated subject. It was more like an extended space.
However, to be able to stretch the space into such a huge void was definitely a great achievement!
Angor had to admit that the original owner of this ruin was very impressive.
Compared to him, Ljuno, who came to inherit the ruin, wasn't so bad.
Since he couldn't find any trace of the mosaic space, Angor didn't think about it anymore. "This should be the hidden space. I saw the golem just ahead.
We'll have to rely on it to get out of here. "
While speaking, he and Laplace walked toward the end of the corridor.
The overall shape of the corridor was no different from the outside. The only difference was that the murals here were relatively more complete and not as tattered as the ones outside.
But even if it was relatively complete, that was only when compared to the outside. Overall, the degree of damage was still more than 50%.
Most of the remaining murals were "cloud patterns", "water patterns", and "frame patterns". Most of the murals were damaged.
Angor planned to study the murals to see if he could find out more about the owner of this ruin. But he shook his head.
Forget it. I can't read them.
Soon, Angor and Laplace arrived at the golem. The golem was standing beside a piece of fluorite. The green light from the fluorite illuminated the golem's porcelain face and made it look like silver.
Especially when the mechanical doll was still chattering non-stop about unknown things.
It sounded like the whispers of some kind of evil cult.
Angor didn't know why.
According to Ljuno, the golem would tell them all kinds of profound stories when they arrived at the hidden space.
These stories all hid some truths of life. It sounded like the original owner of this ruin had a bad taste, or maybe it was the owner's personal experience before his death.
Yes, this ruin was a graveyard built by the original owner.
However, Ljuno did not find the body of the original owner. Either the original owner left after the ruin was built, or he died outside without being able to rest in peace.
Ljuno didn't mind occupying this place since it was an unused graveyard.
Angor listened to the golem's mumbling for a while and shook his head.
He really couldn't understand it.
Of course, now that he had left the Dream Crystal, he had many methods at his disposal. If he wanted to understand the mechanical doll's words, he had many solutions.
But … he didn't need to.
He was only here to get a space storage, so he didn't need to listen to the golem's lecture. Also, according to Ljuno, the golem couldn't talk to people normally.
It only knows how to talk to itself. No matter what you say to it, it won't respond.
Angor and Laplace walked past the golem and headed deeper into the corridor.
It didn't take them long to reach the end of the corridor.
An alloy door stood at the end of the corridor, which looked completely out of place.
This alloy door was installed by Lv Nuo. According to him, it was a Transcendent alloy door created by an Ordovician whose brain domain was "Smelting" after he advanced to the second layer of his brain domain.
Not only that, after Lv Nuo installed the door, she also invited an Ordovician whose brain domain was "environment" to fuse it with the surrounding environment. Then, she asked an Ordovician whose brain domain was "lock" to add a special identification code to the alloy door.
Such strict protection was because behind the door was a hidden space where Ljuno hid all of his belongings.
Angor looked at the industrial alloy door and the ancient ruins around him. "So this ruin was built much earlier than Ljuno's time."
"There is a difference in style, yes. But it doesn't mean it's a difference in age. Take the southern region for example. There's a huge difference between the foreign countries and the Fey Continent. Even the countries inside the Fey Continent are different. "
Angor considered and nodded. "You're right. There's a huge difference between Evory and other countries as well. "
Therefore, there was no way to judge the age gap from this point alone.
Angor put away his thoughts and stepped forward to sense the door.
After a quick spirit scan, Angor had to admit that the door was built using three brain domains.
He tried his best, but his spirit couldn't penetrate the door.
Narda's Vision could only tell the structure and material of the door, but he couldn't find out the source of the supernatural power inside.
This was to be expected. The supernatural system of Ordovician Realm was completely beyond Angor's knowledge.
He would have to wait until he learned more about the supernatural power of Ordovician Realm in the future.
Since he couldn't find anything, he had to give up for now.
What he needed to do now was to open the door.
Ljuno already told them how to open the door.
The "lock" was divided into three layers: "Ripple Lock in the Sphere", "Shockwave Lock in the Sandbox", and "Soundwave Lock in the Ear Hole".
To unlock all three layers, Angor had to use three different keys.
First, "Ripple Lock in the Sphere".
The lock was located in the mezzanine of the door, which couldn't be seen with the naked eye.
There were nine water spheres placed in the top, middle, and bottom of the mezzanine of the door. Each sphere was half-filled with water.
To open the first lock, Angor had to let the water spheres generate ripples according to their natural frequency.
This was very simple for Lv Nuo. After all, the term in his brain was "wave".
But for others, it was a bit more difficult.
But since Ljuno asked Angor to come here, he must have a solution.
Lv Nuo's solution was simple as well. Starting from the center of the door, Angor had to draw a line at each of the four corners. Then, Angor had to tap on half of each line and one-third of each line in order.
The force was similar to the force of the pendulum being pulled up by 50 degrees.
With this impact, the ripples in the nine water balls could directly reach the correct position.
About two minutes later, Angor successfully unlocked the first layer of the door.
After the lock was unlocked, the first layer of the alloy door opened, revealing the second layer.
Just like the first layer, the second layer didn't have a keyhole. Instead, there was a yellow button at the center of the door.
Angor reached out his hand and pressed the button.
He felt his surroundings turning blurry. Several seconds later, everything disappeared. Even Laplace was gone. Angor was the only one left.
He was now standing on a high platform.
Below it was a sandbox made up of vast yellow sand.
