The process of entering the secret meeting room is quite a bit of a decryption.
You must touch the floating switch in the exact place and enter a dynamically changing password on the password disk that appears.
When the operation reaches this point, the decryption part is completed. Although there are only two decryption steps in this part, it is quite difficult. The main reason is that both decryptions change dynamically. If you don’t know the answer, you need to crack it purely through reasoning.
Only if you are proficient in magic patterns, rituals, and arithmetic can you complete the decryption.
But decryption is only to find the location of the secret meeting room. The key to truly opening the door to the secret meeting room is the energy of the corresponding person.
Currently, the only ones who can open the secret meeting room are Augustine, Margaret and Orao.
The energy properties of the three of them are recorded by the door of the secret meeting room, so only they can open the door of the secret meeting room.
As for why the steps to enter the secret meeting room are so complicated? The word "secret meeting" already explains everything.
A secret meeting, if expanded a little, is nothing more than a 'private tryst' and a 'secret appointment'. To build such a secret room in the Clear Sky Poetry Room, if you think about it with your toes, you all know the purpose of it. It must be Augustine and
Margaret's private meeting place.
It would be strange if men and women who still want to pursue love despite many obstacles can enter the private meeting place they choose so easily.
When Orao opened the door of the secret meeting room, bright light swarmed out from inside, driving away the darkness along the way.
Walking into the secret meeting room, everyone immediately felt something different. First of all, the interior of the secret meeting room was brightly lit, like daylight. Also, the secret meeting room was different from the cramped space they imagined. It was surprisingly large, comparable to a hall dominated by wise men.
The layout here is also very strange. Except for a huge portrait on the wall directly in front, all the walls are invisible to the naked eye because they are covered by bookshelves, and the bookshelves are piled with countless books.
Counting books.
In the middle of the secret meeting room, there are round tables and wooden chairs, as well as low tables and sofas.
All the furnishings, illuminated by the bright light, were outlined with faint golden edges. The entire secret meeting room was like a pious cathedral with a miracle.
However, there is no hymn singing in the air of this "cathedral", only a faint scent of books; there is no statue of a god who pities the world, only the huge portrait of a girl.
At this time, the alchemy puppet stood in front of the portrait, looking at the smiling girl in the painting with enchanted eyes.
It wasn't until the sound of everyone's footsteps disturbed the alchemy puppet that it reluctantly withdrew its sight and turned to look at the group of comers.
"Sit down." The alchemy puppet walked towards the round table and sat down first.
Others also sat down. However, there was an episode here. Originally, the two seats next to the alchemy puppet belonged to Orao and Adanis. However, Adanis did not want to sit next to the alchemy puppet. Instead,
He sat opposite the alchemy puppet, looking like he was about to confront him head-on.
The alchemy puppet didn't care about Adanis at all, but took the initiative to invite Angel to sit next to him.
Angel had already walked towards the distance, but after hearing the alchemy puppet's words, he had no choice but to walk back.
All of Angel's goals were achieved. Next, he just wanted to be a bystander, but the alchemy puppet seemed to be targeting him and would not let him go.
Under the attention of everyone, Angel took the second seat. Doakes and Kael sat next to Angel.
Vai and Black Earl sat next to Orao.
Adanis sat the farthest away, and therefore, she was not next to anyone, as if she was alone.
After taking his seat, the alchemy puppet was silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking about where to start.
No one urged them. The rules formed over thousands of years are difficult to break in a short period of time. It is normal for the alchemy puppet to think about it for a long time.
However, what they didn't expect was that the alchemy puppet finally came to his senses, and the first sentence he said was not what they thought was the topic. It was -
"Have you seen Margaret? She is always so beautiful."
The alchemy puppet said to Angel, and while speaking, he glanced at the huge portrait in the distance with his peripheral vision, and his words were full of emotion.
Angel wanted to pretend it didn't exist, but the gem eyes of the alchemy puppet kept staring at him, as if if he didn't express some opinions, this "round table conference" would not go on.
Angel had no choice but to act awkwardly: "Ah? So this portrait is of Miss Margaret? I thought it was a certain god who is famous for her beauty."
"Miss Margaret is indeed beautiful. It's no wonder that when Mr. recited poetry, it was all emotion and his love for Miss Margaret."
Angel spoke in an aria tone, while silently complaining in his heart: Yes, it is all emotion, and only emotion, without literary talent. It is like singing with a broken voice, and the words of appreciation have nothing but emotion.
.
The alchemy puppet was very satisfied with Angel's answer and continued: "Speaking of poetry, the bookshelves here are full of poetry collections that I collected from various worlds. There are also many unique copies in them. I believe that the poets must
Will like it.”
Angel: "Huh?"
What does this mean? He wants to give me these poems?
While Angel was stunned, the alchemy puppet confirmed his idea: "After a while, the energy here will be exhausted and the protection of the poetry collection will not be maintained. I thought about it and simply handed it over to you.
The poem reciters inherit it. Entrusting them to the poem reciters is not a failure, but a new life. The collection of poems is given to the poet, which is also a beautiful thing worthy of praise."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Angel could speak, Adanis on the other side suddenly asked: "What does 'in a while, the energy here will be exhausted'?"
The alchemy puppet originally didn't want to pay attention to Adanis, but when he saw that Angel seemed to be in a daze, he glanced at Adanis and said, "Olaao will naturally be exhausted if he leaves here without energy support."
Adanis: "It's up to Orao to decide whether to leave or not. Even if the contract is terminated, he can stay here."
The alchemy puppet chuckled: "Why are you staying here? Once the contract is removed, if he stays here, it will be like being sucked by the Qingkong Poetry Chamber. It won't take long for him to be completely scattered. Do you think Orao dislikes him?
Have you lived too long that you can’t wait to commit suicide?”
Adanis frowned after hearing this. Although she didn't understand why Orao would be sucked by the Clear Sky Poem Chamber once the contract was cancelled, but she believed that Augustine would not deceive in such a matter.
she.
Orao has never told Adanis these things... This means that he is hiding it from himself.
Adanis actually didn't care that Orao concealed herself. After spending ten thousand years together, she knew Orao's character too well. He concealed himself simply to protect her.
Orao is a person with a strong sense of responsibility. He hopes that all the burdens and responsibilities will be shouldered on him, and he does not want Adanis to worry about it.
Adanis doesn't like this. She doesn't want to be a vassal. She wants to share the burden with Orao... However, Orao never seems to take her growth into account. She doesn't care about any difficulties.
Tell her that when the spirit body really lacks energy, it will ask Adanis to help. Other things are hidden in the bottom of my heart and I don't want to talk about it.
Just like this time, Orao finally revealed a little bit of his heart, but he was telling her——
My time is running out.
This made Adanis both distressed and angry. She felt distressed because Orao didn't cherish her, but she was angry because why didn't Orao tell her earlier? Instead of discussing with herself, she just carried everything alone.
Adanis stared at Orao with bloodshot eyes, wanting to question something.
But Orao looked puzzled, and still looked at Adanis with gentle eyes. That look, even though gentle, made Adanis very uncomfortable, because Orao still looked at her like she was looking at her.
A child who has not grown up.
The silent eye contact and subtle atmosphere on the round table flowed between the two "spirits".
Adanis looked like she wanted to speak, but in the end she fell silent, lowered her head, and neither looked at Orao nor the alchemy puppet.
At this time, the alchemy puppet told a story meaningfully: "Speaking of Margaret, I have to mention his father Franklin. Why did Franklin stand in the way of Margaret and me? The class difference is the main reason, but there is also
One reason is that Franklin wanted Margaret to be with another man. And that man was Margaret's best friend growing up."
"They grew up together. No, it should be said that Margaret watched him grow from a little kid to a young man, because Margaret was born sixteen years earlier than him. Just because she watched each other grow up, she knew
Everything about the other person, so Margaret can already imagine that if she fell in love with him, it would be like this, dull and tasteless. Moreover, when the love is strong, she suddenly thinks of the other person's little brat appearance, which some people may think
It's fun, some people think it's a 'fire extinguisher', and Margaret is the latter."
At this point, the alchemy puppet stopped.
He suddenly told such a story, which made many people present look thoughtful, not knowing what he meant.
However, Adanis understood Augustine's story, which was basically an allusion to her and Orao.
The reason why Orao has always regarded her as a child is because he has been brought up by Orao since he was a child. To Orao, he is his father, and Adanis is his daughter. His father is willing to shoulder the responsibility.
It is only natural that all the burdens are put on to cover up the difficulties for the daughter.
As for the daughter who wants to break through this relationship and no longer wants to be father and daughter, but has another relationship that is bright or ambiguous? In the eyes of the father, that is not allowed. This is unfilial and may also be unethical.
.
Adanis raised her head and looked at Orao in the distance. The other person's expression was normal, and he obviously did not understand the metaphor Augustine was talking about... This also means that Orao had never regarded Adanis as an "adult".
people" view.
Adanis suddenly wanted to ask Augustin how to make Orao change his mind? How to make Orao know that he was no longer the child he was?
To be continued...
