As we all know, except for minerals, there are very few true straight lines in nature. Living organisms are at best "relatively straight" and rarely straight in the geometric sense.
In particular, it is impossible to have such a structure with several edges.
It has a clear sense of existence, lying among the burning debris, complete and regular, as if the fire just now had never happened and everything had nothing to do with it.
The feeling of unsteady standing is getting worse. It feels like I am being thrown up and down, and the visual display shows that my feet are firmly stuck to the ground. The only oscillations are sensory feedback, which is contradictory and conflicting with each other.
Dizziness, nausea, similar to otolithiasis, as if something was violently shaking his semicircular canals, the endolymph fluid inside was churning back and forth, and high-frequency severe stimulation created the illusion of movement.
It was clear that this represented a very human-acceptable signal, reflected in positional, kinesthetic oscillations, and Kraft was unable to interpret it.
He didn't even dare to move his body at will. The wrong feeling would lead to a completely wrong reaction, causing people to fall down in a daze.
Without the isolation of the shell, this thing seems to be disrupted in stability, returning to a more primitive and wild initial state, displaying its original nature without any restrictions, without hiding it.
After several rounds of oscillations, the impact it caused was adapted, and Kraft figured out the essence of this feeling. It was a short-distance fall and reverse motion, which occurred in the concept of non-three-dimensional space and was transmitted by the spiritual senses.
Comes, reflected in the position, motion sensor.
At this time, I have to admit that in this bizarre world, human beings' basic configuration is not sufficient, and he needs the help of new senses to understand it.
"It's really bad. I thought I could relax a little bit." Kraft cursed and took the initiative to connect his mental senses and count down silently in his mind.
【30】
The field of vision suddenly widened, and a 360-degree information circle with no blind spots spread around him. His spirit permeated through the charred bones, he could see through the floor, and he could feel the wooden boxes floating in the water below.
The pressure on the position sense receptors is relieved, replaced by novel feedback from the mind, and the body regains the correct feeling. The balance reflex is activated, and the body fine-tunes its posture to stop the tendency to tip over.
【25】
In his mental senses, he was indeed moving, and the surroundings were undergoing drastic changes that were not visually noticeable.
Compared with the experience in this world that opened up the spiritual horizons, the clear difference is reflected. Everything here is not so... real, and certain elements have been lost, making them as dull as fading.
Although the shapes and sizes are similar and the internal structures are exactly the same, the difference can be noticed, a "real lack" that can only be discovered after comparison, a "color" in a spiritual sense.
The invisible atmosphere floats in every inch of the space, like smoke or water pressure, exerting a weak but not negligible effect on the spirit.
This is not accurate enough. Kraft prefers to describe it as an effect on the "non-material level", manifested in the form of mental pressure.
【twenty three】
The invisible atmosphere like water pressure is quickly relieved, like rising from the water, corresponding to the opposite movement of falling in the illusion of position.
The lost elements return, things become "bright" in the spiritual field of vision, and regain color, just like the black and white manuscript frame is colored, filled with content, and turned into a colorful picture.
Even as I stood where I was, a familiar level was approaching me, while a deeper level was moving away.
【20】
However, this transformation has not been completely completed. It has gradually slowed down and terminated before it is completed. It is the same as the 99% progress bar that everyone hates the most.
The color in his spiritual senses was lost, and the pressure of the invisible atmosphere returned. He was falling deeper into the depths, and the feeling of losing his support came over him.
Everything except the form of everything is passing away and being stripped away. The familiar and indescribable parts inside fade away, revealing the gray and ominous hints of the spiritual world.
The normal senses of human beings cannot observe the truth of the world in which they were born, and they can only witness the process of falling into the abyss of abnormality through the spiritual senses endowed with deep layers.
【15】
When the fall reaches its maximum speed, it follows the inertia and moves deeper.
The unknown, bleaker next level, the invisible atmosphere becomes more and more intense. However, the fall also stops when it is about to enter, changes in the opposite trend, and returns to the present world repeatedly.
【12】
The spiritual perspective reveals the nature of oscillation, which is a back-and-forth change in "depth" that is different from another independent concept of space, causing the illusion of high-speed movement while standing still.
Kraft focused his awareness on the object and observed it from a mental perspective.
【10】
The ever-conquering spiritual senses encountered obstacles for the first time.
Mentally it is judged to be an oscillating entity, completely different from other substances whose internal structures can be easily analyzed.
It is something that cannot be penetrated or even approached. A steady stream of fluctuations and oscillations come from it, going back and forth endlessly.
Correspondingly, since the spiritual senses regard it as an entity, the spirit can naturally act on it.
Just a little closer...

Kraft moved forward. In the level of drastic changes, a step in space was insignificant, but it truly shortened the distance, an unquestionable distance.
The sword is switched to the left hand, and the right hand is stretched out towards it, approaching the static geometry in the visual feedback.
Past the pile of ashes, he reached into the core guarding the spine, his fingertips touched the straight edges that had lost heat, and his palms pressed against the surface with concave and convex carvings. It was too cold to be a product of this earth.
Under the gaze of the fifth cervical vertebrae with a cold smile, he closed his fingers and held it.
His spiritual senses encountered obvious resistance at this time, so much so that he felt that his spirit was no longer a void existence, but an extended limb that could actually touch objects, but the objects it could exert effects on were rather special.
The geometric body is oscillating, and countless clutters arise and fall one after another.
By some strange combination of circumstances, like a baby turning over with his hands for the first time, Kraft found the side that was oscillating in the direction of the present world, and gave it a "push" with his spirit.

When the countdown was over, he quickly disconnected his mental senses, and at the same time, he exerted force on his hand and pulled it out backwards.
The expected claustrophobic feeling, due to the strict time control, was much better than the previous time, at least tolerable.
Maybe I'm adapting to this feeling? The gap in switching back and forth has become less unacceptable.
The resistance to pulling up was far less than expected, and the excessive exertion caused the body to lose balance. Kraft took a few steps back and fell to a soft place, gasping for breath, and the illusion of suffocation was approaching.
The mental senses were shut down, but the imbalance of dizziness and nausea did not reappear. Instead, there was a deep understanding of the level changes in the mind, which was accurately recorded and retained by the consciousness.
"Ahem, it's okay." Kraft cleared his throat. When he pulled it out, the dust was quite big. Don't let it fall into your mouth. It's disgusting just thinking about it.
No matter how short the claustrophobic reaction time is, subjectively it feels quite long. A rough calculation based on heart rate is only over 500 times. Subjectively, it feels like being locked in a coffin for less than half an hour. The experience is really bad.
The unexpected touch reminded him that something didn't seem right.
According to his position, he should have fallen onto the burning charcoal on the wooden bed on the floor, but in fact he was sitting on the intact wooden bed, behind his buttocks was the human-shaped quilt he had rolled up, and his eyes were almost opened by the nails and sawdust inside.
The brazier and stand were in place, safe and sound, with no burning remains. The windows were closed as usual, and there was still a small candle left on the candlestick.
【present world】
He came back, not by looking directly at the celestial body, but by taking a new path back to the living room. Just like last time, he woke up from a dream.
The torn cuffs, the solidified bloodstains, and the cold geometry in the hand, that thing that inherited the ability of the crawling creature to connect to different levels, or the opposite is true.
Judging from the appearance, it should be a processed creation, with the upper part smoothed into a symmetrical hexagonal prism.
During the processing, for unknown reasons, it was polished to suit the shape of the raw material itself, so that it joined well with the unprocessed lower part of the cone, and it can be seen that it turned out to be an elliptical cone about the size of a sword hilt.
The material feels similar to stone, and the color is almost off-white, but it is darker, more restrained, and so dull that one wonders whether it has a "color". It is not any carving material known to Craft.
The density is not low, and the lower part undulates in irregular arcs, which is close to the appearance of magma after solidification. It may be some kind of rock that has experienced melting and high temperatures.
From top to bottom, line segments from thin to thick are engraved on the polished side. They are densely distributed and clearly demarcated from each other. The concave and convex feeling when holding it comes from these lines.
The thick head points to the tip of the vertebra below, and the slender and straight tail extends from the top, all in one go. The length is as precise and symmetrical as obsessive-compulsive disorder, and it has a strong, comet-falling dynamic that goes beyond the graphic itself.
Kraft couldn't help but immerse himself in it, and in the simple picture without annotations, he realized the creator's intention - falling from the sky.
【Meteorite】
Unfounded and unfounded information echoed in my mind.
The surface that melts and then solidifies at extremely high temperatures is not igneous rock brought by geological movements, but is caused by foreign objects that fell from the dark space and rubbed against the atmosphere.
"Have you seen it somewhere?"
Although the depiction content is completely different, the materials are different, and the size is very different, it is indeed not the first time I have seen something of this style.
The pattern is from top to bottom, with extreme obsessive symmetry, extraordinary appeal, and hexagonal prism geometric configuration.
The objects in front of him coincided with the memories deep in his memory. When that snowy night was about to be forgotten, he came to him again without warning. Dark and deep secrets were whispering, telling a frightening and terrifying truth.
.
【Not the only one】
According to the rules, the corresponding position of the "high place" on it is the top surface of the hexagonal prism.
There, a perfect and regular circle is deep in the center, and the clean and smooth surface of the circle can be discerned. There is only a horizontal stripe passing through the center, cutting it into two halves.
