Volume Fourteen, Drifting Space, Chapter Three, Nine Stars
I don’t know how many plane fragments were exchanged and how long it took to finally reach the yellow light point closest to the little red dot.
The old woman launched another dimensional attack wave, opening a space crack, and the three of them successfully reached the finish line.
The little red dot is not a fragment of the plane. There is the universe, the moon and the stars here, and it is a complete plane.
And in the middle of this plane, there stands a palace. Its style is very ancient, and its unique and unique architectural style has never been seen before. It must have a very long and long history.
Gu Yao couldn't hide his surprise. Damn, in the center of the drifting space, there was a product made by human hands!
Chun Yuxuan walked towards the palace, her unhurried manner made Gu Yao sure that this was her destination.
Before arriving at the palace, I found that it was extremely majestic, row upon row, and uncanny craftsmanship. The so-called famous craftsmen in the world would probably be amazed by the craftsmanship.
What makes Gu Yao even more surprised is that besides Chun Yuxuan and the old woman, there are other people here. If you look closely, they are Chun Yuxuan's companions. They came here earlier than Chun Yuxuan.
The group just stayed outside the palace but did not go in. Some were groping by the gate, not knowing what they were doing, while some were sitting cross-legged on the ground with their brows furrowed and thinking hard, as if they were troubled by some problem.
Seeing Chun Yuxuan, they stopped what they were doing and said, "Miss, are you here?"
Chun Yuxuan nodded, then pointed to Gu Yao beside him and said: "This is our new partner, whom we have met before."
These people greeted Gu Yao one after another, but their attitude was not too enthusiastic.
Chun Yuxuan continued: "How is the progress?"
One of them had a mustache and a very cunning gopher face. The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Miss, I'm sorry. I still can't solve it. It's too complicated!"
Chun Yuxuan nodded: "Okay. Rat, you go and do your work first. If you have any clues, I'll report back."
After a few people left, Gu Yao asked doubtfully: "What are they doing?"
Chun Yuxuan said calmly: "Unlock!"
"Unlock. What lock?"
Gu Yao was immediately interested when he heard it. This was his professional field.
"The lock of this palace!"
Gu Yao thought to himself, it turns out that it's not that they don't want to enter the palace, but they haven't been able to enter yet.
With the ability of their group, do they still need to open locks like thieves? Wouldn't it be better to just break the palace door and get in? Moreover, there is a space magician-level master here, so they can use magic such as space doors.
Open channel.
It seemed that he could see what Gu Yao was thinking. Chun Yuxuan said: "We have tried many methods, but it is useless. This palace is protected by magical power. Even my mother-in-law took action personally to no avail. The only way to open it is to open the main door.
The lock, but we don’t have the key!”
Gu Yao was very surprised when he heard this. Even the Grand Mage of Space could not do anything about this palace. The protective power was so powerful. What on earth was hidden inside?
Peerless magic weapon?
Treasure?
Cheats?
Unknown things are always full of attraction, especially for thieves. Gu Yao's addiction has also started to break out, and he also wants to know the secrets in the palace.
Chun Yuxuan's friends struggled for a long time, but still couldn't open the door. But it was not nothing. The middle-aged man named Mouse stepped forward and said: "Miss, we have discovered something."
Chun Yuxuan hurriedly said: "Speak quickly!"
The mouse said: "This seems to be a Nine-Yuan Heavenly Secret Lock, with a total of eighty-one mechanisms arranged in a combination. The eighty-one mechanisms can produce tens of millions of changes. Once the trigger sequence is wrong, it will immediately reorganize itself into a new one."
The nine-nine chain lock, in addition, we have to input nine elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, electricity, darkness, and light into each ring, and the content must be very strict. A slight error will cause us to waste all our efforts, which is very troublesome."
Chun Yuxuan frowned and said, "Well, is there a solution?"
The mouse said: "We need the cooperation of nine people. Each person is proficient in one of the nine elements, and each person controls one ring and nine mechanisms. They can explore them at the same time. Even if the trigger sequence is wrong, the harvest will be nine times that of a single person. Repeat.
Try it, maybe you can find the rules."
"We still need two people, one who can accurately grasp the element of electricity, and the other who has good attainments in the element of wind. Miss, you can use the spiritual nine turns to replace one of them. The last position is left. If there is no one, forget it.
, although not as good as the United Nine."
Gu Yao hurriedly interjected: "Well, I have a good command of the earth and wind elements. In this way, Miss Chunyu will be in charge of the electric ring, and I will be in charge of the wind ring."
He also contracted the bad habit of thieves. After learning that it was a lock, especially a lock that was rare and difficult to unlock, he was now itching and worried that he would not find a chance to try it. The nature of Xiaoyao Wuying is wind-oriented, and Guyao
The level of thieves is more than enough to deal with.
The mouse said doubtfully: "Can you do it? If you don't cooperate well, bad things will happen.
Damn, Gu Yao felt very unhappy if he dared to doubt my level. If he couldn't handle such a small thing, wouldn't it be a disgrace to Xiaoyaomen?
Chun Yuxuan said: "It's okay, let him try it."
A circular pattern was drawn on the open space in front of the palace gate, with nine corners extending evenly from the circle. The lines in each corner were of different colors, gold, green, blue, fire, yellow, transparent, silver, and white.
, black, they respectively represent the nine basic elements of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, electricity, light and darkness.
This circle has a name, called the Four-Dimensional Shadow Formation. It is the best countermeasure for thieves who encounter elemental locks. It intuitively reflects the power diagram in the lock into the formation, and can input power from each formation, which greatly improves the efficiency of the formation.
Reduced the difficulty of unlocking.
Everyone stood in their own corner of the formation, and their eyes suddenly changed. Countless small bubbles of various colors suddenly appeared in the air. They were either suspended independently or connected to each other, making it dazzling.
This is the operation of the ground-locking power, reflected through the formation, like an entity.
Gu Yao secretly praised that the guy named Mouse must also be a clever thief. This shadow formation is so realistic and very good.
These huge little bubbles contain secrets. If the position of one of them is wrong, it will affect the whole body and cause the lock to restart. There are many things involved, such as the proportion of elements, mutual generation and restraint, sequence, etc.
.
Under the orders of the mouse, everyone still mobilized the bubbles in the array, or injected power to generate more bubbles, and began the exploration of the Nine-Yuan Secret Lock.
Although the mouse was good, it was at the end of its rope. After trying hundreds of times in a row, I got a bunch of sampling drawings, and then I took them to one side and squatted on the ground to study them.
Although this lock is complicated, it has not been able to stump Gu Yao, who was born in the first class of thieves. After just observing, he found that the secret lock was in the form of a "nine stars in a row".
The messy movement of the elements in the lock was actually just a trick. Through Xiaoyaomen's unique observation method, he found that nine of the circular areas were the most special. Those small bubbles were swimming, but the density of the elements in those nine places was
It has never changed. This is also a characteristic that the lock must maintain, otherwise it will collapse and even the lock maker will not be able to open it.
Obviously, those nine points are the center. If they can be connected in a line to form a nine-star chain, the nine areas will interact with each other, causing other elements to change respectively and belong to themselves, and all the problems will be easily solved.
However, after the mouse was so troubled and he didn't know when the lock would be unlocked, Gu Yao became a little impatient and thought about how he could give him some hints.
After looking at the sampling drawings and analyzing them to no avail, Mouse ordered everyone to walk onto the four-dimensional shadow formation.
This time Gu Yao made a mistake during the operation. The mouse was already irritated because he could not open the lock, and immediately became furious. When he was about to scold Gu Yao, he suddenly shouted in surprise: "I found it, I finally found it."
!”
When he was excited, he even cursed out. When a thief discovered the cardinal, the pleasure he felt was indeed very strong. Gu Yao knew it so well that many thieves became obsessed with this not-so-dignified job.
In fact, Gu Yao made a mistake on purpose, directing the mouse's attention to the wind ring center he discovered. Fortunately, this guy is not too stupid, so his own tips can work. It would be a real headache for an inferior thief.
"You kid, you are so wrong!" Mouse slapped Gu Yao on the shoulder and said happily.
Chun Yuxuan in the distance showed an imperceptible smile. She knew that Gu Yao would not let her down. If no one in Xiaoyaomen could unlock the lock, then everyone else was just wishful thinking.
After finding a breakthrough, the cracking work became much smoother. There was no daylight in this strange plane, and it was always shrouded in darkness. I don’t know how long it took, but with the sound of "clicking", the palace's lock was finally opened.
.
A cold and extremely rotten aura rushed towards his face, covering the entire earth in an instant. Even Gu Yao felt his body tremble involuntarily, and an extremely uncomfortable feeling surged in his heart.
