Xia Duo chose to go deep into the rock mass in a direction perpendicular to the road and closer to the core palace, but he soon encountered an obstacle——
There are still barriers within the rock mass!
So Xia Duo did not go to the square he first discovered, but continued deeper into the rock mass along the outer edge of the barrier. He wanted to see the general coverage area of the barrier.
After a while, he came to the edge of the plane, probably called the edge of the plane. After all, this is also a folded space bounded from the main plane.
Except that the size is not as good as the main plane, everything else is the same as the main plane.
The main plane has a plane edge, so naturally this folded space also has it. The moment he saw the plane edge, Shado immediately realized that the protective magic on the two squares was not one.
Perhaps they are related to each other in the puzzle, but at least on the surface the two are separate.
Xia Duo speculated that in order to maintain the long-term existence of the core area, Secret Mystery Lock had to selectively cut off support for some other non-core areas.
Of course, it is also possible that the mystery locks have been in disrepair for a long time, and the mystery locks in some areas have naturally failed, but considering that the collapse of the mystery locks is often accompanied by magic network riots.
The place that resembled a living area just now was almost in its original condition, except that it was a little worn out and covered in dust. It didn't look like it had experienced the magic network riots.
If the secret place cannot be confirmed to be Nie Tianchao's fortress, Young Master Xia may not be so entangled. But now the phenomenon of the young masters outside reminds me that there is no chance that the secret place outside is not Long Kuang's secret fortress.
Therefore, Xia Duo prefers the automatic selection of the Mystery Lock, or the active setting of the maintainer, thereby giving up the maintenance and protection of non-core areas.
In addition to the living area, Mr. Xia also discovered a material warehouse. Because it was too old, except for some gems and gold, the fine gold could still remain intact, and even the mithril had not deteriorated or rusted.
…
After such a long time, the wood has either decayed, or it has not yet petrified and crystallized. Although the cloth has not decayed, its original form can still be distinguished.
But if I use the method in Nie Tianchao's volume, I am worried that it is a trap, and it will be really difficult to make a choice! It is actually an analysis process, and with the help of the brain, the withdrawal is very smooth.
…
The two medium-coverage barriers are located on both sides of the smallest barrier, and the eight are almost under the same straight line. The seven large barriers are located on the same side of the straight line, scattered and scattered.
Fine gold is slightly worse than gold, but it can still maintain its original shape. With a little rubbing, it will continue to have a metallic luster.
That part seems cumbersome and simple, and it is the same in practice, but after all, Mr. Xia has not yet incarnated in the folding space, and I cannot make corrections to the detection process and direction of the detection circle through observation from a macro perspective.
…
The other way is to try to gain access to the secret lock through invasion, which cannot be used to determine whether it is the Dragon Madness Secret Fortress outside.
In addition to the time when Mr. Xia incarnated himself to explore the folded space in person, my body also completed various exploration work on the macroscopic magic network in the folded space in the laboratory on the main plane with the help of the detection array.
My preliminary judgment is that a very small number of functions of Secret Land Mystery Lock are dormant or turned off, but the protection of the core area is still casual.
The disadvantage is not that as long as you are careful, there is a small chance that the possible defenders of the secret land will be alerted, but the advantage is that there is no greater probability of triggering some of the secret land's counter-mechanisms.
So the question still goes back to the mysterious lock permissions, whether to try to use the method of obtaining permissions in the Feres volume, or to try to obtain permissions through intrusion.
One is to try to use the method of obtaining permissions recorded in the Feres volume, which is also the best way to personally verify whether it is Nie Tianchao's fortress.
But the secret scroll was made by someone else. Who knows if that is a signal to wake up the maintainers! Of course there must be something wrong with the secret scroll. Once it succeeds, the harm will be minimal, which means that I can hardly control Nie Tianchao Fortress.
Then Mr. Xia returned to the square he first discovered. He found that the square had only two passages. That square had no passages on seven sides, but eight of them were blocked.
Whether it is to seize authority or paralyze the barrier function, even if it retreats, it will still be countered.
It's not that it's unsustainable, but it's not enough yet, and now it's time to make a decision!
As for metals, only the deterioration caused by the transmutation of elements will change their essence. Otherwise, even if they are corroded, they will only exist in a different form and can still be detected.
As for gold and gemstones, they will almost always deteriorate or rust, usually the latter. The former may undergo some changes in properties during long-term storage, but there are always mistakes in gemstones.
Of course, even fewer of them were things that looked like food, piles of white ash, which looked like traces of metal, wood, or cloth.
Therefore, even if the core areas in the eight directions are important, they are probably as important as this palace later.
Secret place, behind the passage in the square behind the core palace.
Before the complex investigation, Mr. Xia found that the eight passages were still blocked by barriers. At the same time, the barriers in the eight directions were still separated from the barriers under the other square and were independent of each other.
In that case, if the authority must be obtained through intrusion, there will be no room for maneuver in the event of victory.
Of course, since the detection array acts on Youwei, its exploration of the macroscopic magic network also starts from the microscopic level. Therefore, in the process, a small amount of data on the flow status of the magic network strings needs to be collected, and then the specific macroscopic results can be obtained through analysis.
Magic network status.
If it is definitely not possible, I still hope that we can live in peace with the other party and negotiate quietly, at least until the end of the contact.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Xia searched the entire folded space and found a total of one small, two medium, and seven major barriers. The smallest barrier was not in the area where the core palace was located.
Of course, there is no other way, which almost only flashed in Young Master Xia's mind for a moment. This is not to retreat into the core area by overlapping the space with him, but the barrier is not an empty shell, but a field.
Mr. Xia's incarnation stood like a wooden figure for a long time, and his eyes often became more alert. After a long time, Mr. Xia's body finally stopped analyzing.
There are no two paths before me now——
…
Considering that that area was only protected, but was still essentially covered by the Mystery Lock, Master Xia moved everything outside the warehouse to avoid conflicts with the ancient defenders.
Mr. Xia speculated that there is a core area in each of these eight directions, but I did not find the torrent of magic network strings far away from these eight boundaries similar to the palace on one side of the square later.
