Looking at the cylindrical ground, it seems to have the same structure.
In other words, if someone steps on the ground, the mechanism will probably be activated.
Although Lu Guansheng is protected by the Golden Bell Shield, once the mechanism is activated, the floor of the hall will probably collapse!
Lu Guansheng doesn't want to take the responsibility of destroying cultural relics!
"I will open a space-time gate in the center of each cylinder later. You will operate the drone and scan the scene inside." Old Lu said to Little Lu.
"What about the surrounding walls? Do you want to detect them as well?" Xiao Lu asked.
"I don't think it's necessary. There may only be mechanisms there, but no clues." Old Lu shook his head. "I think the underground is the key, because once a structure like this is closed, it can't be opened again."
"So, you mean to say that these mechanisms were built after the treasure was transferred?"
"That's right, so the clue must be in there too." But he didn't know which room it was.
There are 27 cylinders in total, let’s scan them first.
After carefully completing the scan of each room one by one, the two continued to study the interiors of these spaces.
There was a M-shaped beam overhead, nothing particularly fitting. There were many symbols on the circular wall, but there was no pattern to them.
And the ground...
"Look, every carving on the ground is different!" Old Lu pointed to the ground.
They quickly input and compared the symbols, but the decoded result was garbled code!
BQHFRUXMCILXULIDVLIDVUFINLUNFVK.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Lu was puzzled.
"Why is it garbled? What went wrong?" Old Lu also frowned.
I reassembled these characters over and over again, but I just couldn't spell out a complete word.
Tired of using his brain, Xiao Lu lay down and complained, "It's harder to read than Leonardo da Vinci's manuscripts!"
"What did you say?" Old Lu seemed to have thought of something.
"Da Vinci! Mirror calligraphy!" Xiao Lu thought that everyone knew this, so why bother asking?
"I understand!" Old Lu said suddenly.
"What did you know?" Xiao Lu sat up.
"We might be looking in the wrong direction!" Old Lu then pushed up the 3D image. "We should be looking towards the direction of the Heavenly Palace."
Looking from the bottom up, from left to right, from inside to outside, finally, a row of decent letters was formed.
Separated by pauses, there are three short phrases: "gods peak, will is it, blessing met."
"The Templars' motto is 'Gods will is it!'" Xiao Lu pointed at the first line. "That extra word 'peak' must be the clue!"
"Gods Peak?" Old Lu pondered. "Could it be that the Peak of the Gods refers to Mount Olympus, the highest peak in Cyprus?"
"Very likely!" Xiao Lu nodded.
"Let's go! Let's go hiking! Shall we go and take a look?" After saying that, Lao Lu packed up his props, activated the fusion, returned to the suburbs, and flew to Cyprus by helicopter.
The summit of Mount Olympus, which is less than 2,000 meters above sea level, is covered with snow all year round, making it a paradise for ski enthusiasts.
It is the peak tourist season now, the mountain top is packed with tourists and the hostel is overcrowded.
After renting a stand-alone guesthouse in a distant non-tourist area, Lu Guansheng released Xiao Lu again.
"Why do you live so far away?" Little Lu asked Old Lu while looking at the peak vaguely visible in the distance.
"It's peak tourist season, there are too many people!" said Lao Lu, "Let's go through the space-time gate!"
"Where should we start looking for such a big mountain?" Xiao Lu asked.
"It's definitely not the ski resort, otherwise we'd have been discovered long ago! Let's go to the peak that most people can't reach." Old Lu pointed to the towering cliff hidden by the clouds. "That's the only place above the clouds year-round. I think that's the most likely place!"
The mountain is so big and the terrain is so steep. There is also a high possibility that there are mechanisms there, so we can't just use the space-time gate to detect it. So it is estimated that they will stay here for a while.
Every day, Lao Lu put Xiao Lu on the top of the peak and began to scan one square at a time.
Five or six days passed, and still nothing was found.
On the seventh day, just when Xiao Lu was about to think that he had found the wrong place and wanted to give up, the tablet in his hand suddenly showed abnormal resonance.
"Old Lu! There's something unusual! But I can't see any images! Can you come and take a look?" Xiao Lu informed Old Lu through the headset.
"Let me take a look?" Old Lu opened the space-time gate from the side and came over.
"Right here, there's the curved undulations of a metal object!"
"Go back!" said Lao Lu.
"Go back now? We just discovered some clues!" Xiao Lu was puzzled.
"Our detector is not deep enough. Let's go back and improve it first." Old Lu explained the reason.
"How can we renovate here? We don't even have any tools!"
"We'll wear it back to the Fuyuan studio in the middle of the night to modify it, and then wear it back when it's done."
"Okay then!" Xiao Lu nodded.
Since they couldn't make any noise in Fuyuan during the day, they had to design and modify the detector in the middle of the night every day.
The two worked secretly in their home for five nights and finally increased the resonance detection depth by 20 times.
This depth is enough to reach the center of the wide area of the mountain. If it still cannot be detected entirely, we will have to find another way.
After five nights of hard work, the two men were almost accustomed to the reversal of day and night. However, there was no light on the top of the mountain, and the cliffs were dangerous, making it unsuitable for exploration at night.
Lu Guansheng decided to rest for two days.
