Whispering Verse

After confirming that he had really just returned to the hidden space in the basement, Shade recited the incantation again and touched the base of the statue, returning to the white mist. This place was too different from the white mist area after passing through the gate of time. Like it.

"Since walking in the 'Corridor of Time', I can directly enter the past time. What would happen if I walked randomly in the so-called 'Space Maze' instead of taking the path with signposts in front of me... Stepping into the chaotic space flow and being torn apart?"

Shade didn't have the guts to do this yet, so he thought for a moment and called out his brass life ring. Immediately, the skin of the body was immediately chapped inch by inch, and golden light marks shone under the cracks. This phenomenon also occurred in the area named "Time Corridor" opened by the time key.

"Sure enough, the effect of the afterglow of divinity can also be seen here."

Suddenly he raised his head, and the divine light seemed to awaken something in the thick fog at this moment. White mist flowed around him, and he heard whispers coming from afar. I wanted to listen carefully, but I could only make out that it was countless people praying.

I walked quickly to the road sign, ready to leave at any time, but all I heard was a whisper in my ear:

[The figure of the original rift looks at you. 】

[Present a "white stone crystal" or a drop of divinity, which can connect to another space landmark in the designated direction. 】

"Sure enough, the power of the fallen ancient gods is almost everywhere, but their divinity cannot be taken away."

Shade, standing in the white mist, immediately shook his head. Although he wanted to know the secret, divinity was more important.

He had never heard of "white stone crystal", something that seemed to be a mineral, and it was not in the textbook he got.

The problem now is not the way to start the teleportation, but the white fog area where we are currently sitting. There is no connection between this fog and the white fog after the time key is opened.

"Can you still feel other information?"

[That’s all for now. 】

A woman's voice whispered in his ear, and Shade looked up at the strange, impenetrable white mist around him:

"Since the ancient god of time [Father of the Infinite Tree] has a 'corridor of time', and the ancient god of space [primordial rift] has a 'space maze', do other fallen ancient gods also have such spaces, such as Anat?" Does the ancient god of balance 'The Hanging Judge' that the young lady mentioned also have... What is the significance of the existence of this kind of space?"

He didn't get any answers, and he needed to find the answers to these secrets himself.

The space containing the statue of the two-headed ancient god was definitely not naturally formed, but the builder had no way of knowing.

It is impossible to verify who was the last person to step into the hidden space in the basement and touch the statue of the ancient god. Without the "divine afterglow" state and the special "other self", it is impossible to obtain the information Shade knows, so he does not have to worry about anyone else knowing the secrets here.

With great doubts, he left the "space maze" in the white mist and returned to the circular space where the statue was located. Shade became more and more confused about the secrets of this world.

He glanced at the debris around the circular space, thought for a moment, and squatted down to carefully sort the pile of things. It's a pity that even though there are statues of the ancient gods of space erected here, the power of time destroys mortal objects. Most of these items that must be hundreds of years old are rusted and rotten.

The accumulated books were completely turned into rubbish, and the metal utensils whose purpose was unknown were extremely rusty. When Shade classified and sorted these things, the only useful item he found was a piece of rolled parchment.

This piece of parchment seemed to be completely unaffected by time. Shade repeatedly confirmed that it was not a [relic] but an ordinary item before unfolding it. The parchment was intact, but the ink on it was very light. I guess the paper was special, but the ink was ordinary.

It took Shade some effort to read the three lines of text clearly, and his "word proficiency" allowed him to understand the meaning on his own:

[Year 1520 of the General Calendar, the twelfth survey log. 】

[It is confirmed that the statue of the ancient god's 'Primal Crack' has been found. The statue is suspected to be connected to the entrance of the 'Time Maze', and the method of opening it is not yet known. 】

[The location of the "delivery room" left by the ancient god of creation needs further confirmation, please reply as soon as possible. 】

There is no signature, and the person who wrote these words did not leave any identity information. But judging from the date of 1520, this is already a legacy from three hundred years ago. Three hundred years ago, the house in Saint Teresa Square seemed not to have been built yet.

He murmured to himself:

"Did something unexpected happen? This kind of information was left here instead of taken away... the delivery room? Have I heard of this place?"

Shade's memory was pretty good. On the night when the two professors "visited" his home, he had read a lot of news from Peter "Dwarf Mouse"'s letters. Among them, it was mentioned that another powerful illegal organization [Blood Spirit School], which originally promised to help [Mercury Blood], was busy with the "delivery room" in the New World, so it provided limited support to the silver-eyed people.

"interesting."

Shade rolled up the parchment and put it aside:

"Not everyone knows the secret of the special space left by the ancient gods. Since the ancient organizations know it, do the Zhengshen Church and the three major thaumaturgy academies also know it?"

But even if he knew that the "delivery room" was a special place that was suspected to be equivalent to the "time corridor" and the "space maze", there was nothing Shade could do about it. The clues about the "delivery room" are now in the New World. He can't reach them at all, and there is no need to care about such things.

In addition to rotten books and metal objects, after carefully rummaging through the "garbage", I found about a dozen glass reagent bottles under some brown rags. The reagent bottles are of an old style, with the same logo on the bottom of each one.

The main body of the logo is an equilateral triangle, with three corners connected to a small circle. Inside the triangle is a man with wings.

"What sign is this?"

Even though I don’t understand, I’d better write it down first, someone will definitely understand.

Most bottles contain potions of various colors, but even potions have a shelf life. From the looks of it, the potion may have been made three hundred years ago, and it must be no longer drinkable.

He did not take away these strange potions and the roll of parchment, but left them here to prevent them from being destroyed by curious cats when he was not at home one day.

After checking these sundries, I left the basement with the kerosene lamp in hand, declaring that tonight's "exploration" activity was temporarily over.

Regarding the hidden space with the statue of the ancient god "Original Crack", Shade could not do anything before obtaining the "White Stone Crystal". But the space behind the hidden wall is valuable. Since even the church can't find it, this is a very good place to hide items.

Although Xia De has nothing to hide, he will definitely take advantage of it in the future.

Thinking of this, he stopped and turned his head to look at the wall:

"Speaking of which, people three hundred years ago wouldn't have had the same idea and put those piles of things here, only to never come back... Hiss~ Isn't that a bit unlucky... ....”
