Chapter 110 opens
Under the King's Campus, deep in the underground ruins.
Manipulating the corpse holding a gas lamp to clear the way in the darkness, Dorothy continued to walk in the dark and empty corridor. While getting rid of the dangerous bat man, her way back was blocked. Now she could only walk forward and explore deeper into the ruins.
Starting from the sixth floor, this ruins had only one-way street, a long corridor extending all the way deep into the ground. There were no forks in the middle, so Dorothy could only keep going this way.
Dorothy didn't know how long she walked in this dark and narrow corridor, but she finally reached the end. After entering a stone door, she came to a spacious and empty room.
This room was like the rooms Dorothy had seen on the upper floors before. It was square and empty. Not only was there nothing inside, but even the wall had been chiseled off, leaving it bumpy.
"What the hell? That's it? Is this the end? This is the end? The deepest point of these ruins is just an empty room?"
Looking at the scene in front of her, Dorothy complained in her heart. She glanced around and observed again and again. She could confirm that this room was only connected to the path when Dorothy came in. There was no other exit. This meant that Dorothy had no way to move forward. She had nowhere to go.
The room before Dorothy was obviously an empty house that had been looted several times. Even the murals and paintings had been chiseled away. It would have been fine if there was nothing to gain, but the key point was that there was no way to go any further.
"Shh... This isn't good... In this case, we have no choice but to go back? But the way back is blocked, and the bat man might still be guarding outside, so we can't go back at all..."
Looking at the predicament in front of her, Dorothy thought anxiously, and just as she was thinking about what to do, her other sense in the distance detected the problem again.
At the edge of the road-blocking ruins, Dorothy left a zombie doll to keep watch on the other side of the ruins to see if the bat man would suddenly break through the ruins and rush over. When Dorothy was exploring, she also used the zombie doll's senses to pay attention to the situation in the ruins at all times.
At this moment, Dorothy discovered through the vision of the corpse that wisps of purple-red mist were oozing out from the cracks between the rocks in the ruins, and then deposited and spread on the ground. Seeing this strange-colored gas, Dorothy couldn't help but be startled.
"What's going on? Why is this stuff coming from that side... Is this the work of that Batman?"
Watching the purple-red strange gas seeping out from the cracks in the stone with her vision, Dorothy couldn't help but become alert and had a bad premonition.
"This thing... could it be poison gas? Could it be that the guy couldn't come over by himself so he wanted to use the poison gas to seep over and poison me to death?"
Dorothy guessed this, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible, because the gas was so strange, and it seeped in from the opposite side of the ruins where the Bat Man was, so it was very likely to be poisonous gas.
"Oh no... If the poisonous gas spreads to my side, then it will be the end. Now I have nowhere to run."
Looking at the scene in the distance, Dorothy thought anxiously that there was a dead end ahead and poisonous gas was spreading from behind. If she didn't think of a solution, it would be all over.
"What should I do... Is there any place in this room that can block the poison gas? It's empty everywhere..."
Dorothy looked around and murmured. She controlled herself and the corpse doll beside her to search around the room, trying to find a way to resist the poison gas.
At this moment, Dorothy frowned suddenly and felt something was wrong.
"Tsk... I always feel like there's something amiss in this room... It seems like something is wrong, but I can't figure out what it is for a while..."
Dorothy sensed something strange and looked around with her puppet again. Although she didn't see anything wrong at first glance, the strange, uncoordinated and uneasy feeling still existed.
"Hiss... What's wrong with this... What's wrong with this?"
Thinking of this, Dorothy closed her eyes, and then used the ability of the Knower to begin to call up all the previous search memories of this room in her mind, and carefully reviewed them, trying to find out where the strange feeling came from. At the same time, the poison in the distance was spreading along the corridor towards this final room.
'Found it!'
Suddenly, Dorothy opened her eyes, and then she walked quickly to a corner of the room as if she had discovered something, and came to a wall that had not been chiseled and was barely flat.
When Dorothy came to the wall, she first turned her head to the side, and then let the zombie beside her observe the wall. From the zombie's perspective, the wall looked normal.
Then Dorothy closed her eyes for the moment, and then looked at the wall from her own perspective. The general situation was the same, but there was something extra in the details.
In Dorothy's own field of vision, there appeared several dense and tiny white marks on the wall in front of her. These white marks looked very ordinary, just like ordinary scratches. Dorothy would not pay much attention to them when she saw them normally. However, the special thing about them was that only Dorothy herself could see them, and they could not be seen from the perspective of the zombie.
One perspective can see, while the other cannot. The difference between these two perspectives is the cause of Dorothy's sense of disharmony, and these "scratches" on the wall are the origin of this sense of disharmony.
"So... is this my problem? Or is it the zombie's problem?"
In order to judge the problem more accurately, Dorothy created a few more zombies and asked them to observe the wall through their vision. As a result, in the world of these zombies, Dorothy found that she could not see the scratches at all.
"Interesting... Only my vision can see this thing. If the zombie can't see it, does that mean other ordinary people can't see it either?"
Dorothy murmured, and she already had some idea of what was happening.
"Perhaps this is... the secret left by the Star Number Book Repairing Club. It is a secret that only the Beyonders who are 'Enlightened' can see..."
Dorothy continued to mutter as she reached out her hand and touched the scratches, then a strange idea struck her.
When Dorothy touched the wall again, the scratches came to life like snakes and began to twist on the wall. Then they kept twisting and changing, and finally turned into an eye that seemed to be carved on the wall, staring at Dorothy in front of the wall.
After these eyes stared at Dorothy for a few seconds, the scratches were distorted again, and this time, they were distorted into words, and there were two kinds of words that Dorothy could understand, which happened to be Prittwen.
The text says yes.
"Verification passed, welcome back, know-it-all."
After this, the entire wall in front of Dorothy suddenly disappeared out of thin air, revealing a hidden passage.
"If it is so... "
Dorothy looked at the passage and smiled slightly. Then she looked back and saw the purple-red poisonous gas that had spread to the door of the room. Then she didn't think twice and walked quickly into the passage with her corpse doll.
Not long after Dorothy stepped into the passage, the wall that had suddenly disappeared reappeared out of thin air, turning the entire room back into a secret room with only one entrance, and the inscriptions on it turned into scattered marks again.
Afterwards, more purple-red poisonous gas poured into the room from the passage, gradually filling up the last room of the ruins. The wall that could appear and disappear out of thin air was now connected to the entire room to form a sealed whole, without a single gap for the poisonous gas to seep into other places.
