Chapter 114: Shock

Glancing at the completely blocked passage ahead, Claire tentatively controlled an empty alchemy flask and slowly approached the blocked area.

In the eyes of the two men, the front end of the empty bottle was instantly involved in the distorted time and space, and then disappeared without a trace. The other part directly turned into white sand grains, scattering in succession.

"Anvis, is there any way you can get through here?"

No longer trying, Claire shook her head and turned to Avis with her blue eyes, expressing that she was powerless.

"If we want to crack it, it would be difficult to rely on our strength alone."

Staring at the separation of time and space in front of him, Anvis also felt a little troubled.

"And, Claire, there seems to be a problem with this passage."

After carefully looking at the corridor walls on both sides, he raised his right hand and cast a third-level Earth Splitting Technique.

But after the brilliance of magic shone, the spell that was originally enough to open a large crack in an ordinary stone wall had no effect on the walls on both sides that seemed to be just ordinary rocks.

"Although the wall looks like stone, it does not seem to be a real rock, but exists like a subspace mirror. The method of digging holes in the walls on both sides like last time will not work here."

Not surprised by this result, Anvis made a conclusion at the end.

"In other words, we are not in the reality level now, but in an area similar to the mirror space?"

After listening to Anvis' words, Claire immediately understood what he meant.

"Let's do this, Anvis, let's look around to see if there is a magic circle that can close this defense. If we can find it, then we can continue to move forward. If not, then we can only return."

Of course, there is actually an uncontrollable way, which is to rely on Claire's legendary explorer qualities and find a way to cause an accident to stop the isolation layer from working.

"Okay, then let fate decide our path forward."

Avis shrugged and made a pun.

So, the two of them searched the area carefully for a while.

But today, fate seemed not to be on their side, and they gained nothing.

"Let's go back first."

After a while, at Claire's suggestion, the two returned the same way.

But before walking too far, the girl noticed a creepy detail.

"Avis...look!"

Following the direction of Claire's finger, where the sixth mural originally stood, suddenly there was only a blank wall left!

Needless to say, the two people's hearts suddenly lifted, and they unanimously clenched the staff in their hands.

Far away in the tunnel, beyond the range illuminated by the lantern light, in the deep and thick darkness, unimaginable malice seemed to be surging.

.….….

When Avis and Claire were exploring the tunnel that was accidentally opened, the many ninth steps observed outside the ruins had begun to carefully study this new stone door.

According to the feedback from Level 9 who monitors the ruins, dozens of such doors have appeared throughout the ruins, and their internal structures are highly consistent.

A ninth-level person has already entered to explore in person, and tried to rely on his strength to forcefully break through the isolation layer and explore the things hidden behind it.

But in the end, he gained absolutely nothing. There was nothing behind the sealing layer except more chaotic time and space.

After walking forward for about thirty minutes, the ninth-level man gave up this futile behavior and exited again.

After three magic hours appeared in Shimen, the mages from the Royal Academy of Magic gave their analysis conclusion:

The dozens of stone gates that have appeared so far are just the mirror space of the original stone gate corridor, and there is only a part in front of the isolation layer, and nothing exists behind it.

According to their specific calculations, there is actually only one real stone gate, and it is not included in these opened passages.

Currently, they are going through a special detection ceremony to urgently calculate the coordinates of the Shimen itself based on the positions of all newly discovered Shimen mirrors in the city ruins.

After learning about these strange stone gates, all the marquis and the ninth level of the four major families also gathered here, waiting for the results.

"How's it going? Is there any result?"

On the side, watching many magisters from the Imperial Academy surrounding a huge magic circle, nervously calculating the results, Pamir Vice President Hughes asked.

Although most students have not entered the door, there are still some students who are confident enough and simply 'brave and fearless' who choose to explore inside.

Not all students can resist the temptation of such an adventure, which is like a hero's biography.

'Maybe many people have died on the way looking for adventure, but I am different from them!'

At some point, everyone has this thought.

After all, this strange round door that suddenly appeared does look like the beginning of an adventure.

The college did not stop these students who chose to explore inside.

They already have the right to choose, and now that they have made a choice, they must be responsible for their choice.

"It's almost time. It will take about one magic hour at most before we can lock the true coordinates."

After looking at him, one of the mages nodded and reported the latest progress.

Gradually, with the joint work of many academicians of the Royal Academy of Magic, the true location of the stone gate was finally determined.

"Found it, on the fourth underground floor of the ruined platinum tower, on a wall on the left side of the underground laboratory!"

Finally, in the three-dimensional view of the mini ruins suspended in the center of the formation, a dark red light spot appeared in the lower corner of the model.

Once the true location of the gate was determined, how to make it appear was no longer difficult for the Nine Orders.

However, before heading to the underground laboratory, several marquises exchanged glances in a very secretive manner.

Soon, everyone arrived in the laboratory.

"Wait a moment, in order to prevent accidents, I will first notify those students who entered the mirror channel to explore to come out."

Suddenly a question came to mind, and Vice Dean Hughes spoke quickly.

Others had no objections to this, so Hughes dispersed his ninth-level mental power and prepared to notify all students in the corridor at short notice.

"Wait... something is wrong, they are not real people!"

But when the notification actually started, Hughes suddenly noticed something unusual.

In his mental gaze, the students who were exploring the corridor were not their true bodies, but the same spatial mirror image as the corridor!

Upon discovering this, Houston was immediately shocked.

"Don't worry, the disappearance of the students must be related to this door. Open it as soon as possible, and maybe we can save some."

Facing the seemingly empty wall, an old mage from the institute came out. He drew a symbol representing the high elf royal family on the wall, and then recited an unknown ancient Mannic mantra.

.

As a result, unknown forces began to move, lines appeared on the walls, and a new door appeared and slowly opened in front of everyone.

Different from other doors, the carved blood orchid petals on the door frame of this stone door show a rich crimson color, as if soaked in thick blood——
