The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 184: Into the "labyrinth"

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (!

After Moonlight and Evan left the room, Sean finished washing up, turned off the lights and lay on the bed.

He chose the bed against the glass wall.

In the dark room, Sean, who was thinking, turned over, and suddenly saw the deep sea outside the glass wall, and the three-masted sailboat illuminated by the lights not far away.

Looking at the seawater that blocked the view in the distance like a thick fog that could not be dissolved, and the sunken ship that was illuminated by the lights that were a little strange...

Sean's heart suddenly felt a trace of fear.

"Deep-sea phobia?" Shawn thought uneasily, "When did I have this phobia?

"This is not good for maintaining mental strength..."

He frowned and got up, drawing the curtains to isolate the deep sea.

In this way, he was able to escape his fear and gradually fall asleep.

The set bedside alarm went off and Sean woke up from a dreamless sleep.

The lighting outside the glass wall has been turned on, and the light shines through the edge of the curtain, giving people the illusion that the curtain is opened, and there is daylight outside the window.

Olivia, who didn't need sleep, got up and turned on the lights in the room: "Good morning, Sean."

"Morning." Sean sat up—sleep well and in good spirits.

Go to the restaurant to meet other people, and everyone sits down for breakfast.

Victor, who disappeared from dinner last night, reappeared, and Sean deliberately approached him, but he didn't smell the rotten smell.

Detective Solomon didn't look very good, with red blood in his eyes, as if he had experienced a hangover.

He picked up a piece of charred, buttered toast, took a nibble as if he didn't have a good appetite, and said in a low voice, "...It's a little strange, my head hurts when I wake up in the morning...

"It feels like I was drunk last night, but I haven't been drinking for years..."

Solomon turned his head and found that Randy was chatting with the restaurant staff in the distance at this time, so he lowered his eyes and seemed to be talking to himself: "I may be allergic to some kind of food here...

"Until I figure out the reason, I don't dare to eat and drink..." After he finished speaking, he raised his eyes and glanced at the fellows, as if to warn.

Hearing Solomon's words, Sean sighed inwardly: "Is it the detective's intuition?"

Sean also said casually: "Yeah, the meat here... doesn't taste very good, it doesn't feel like beef - I took a bite and didn't eat it."

Taking advantage of Solomon's reminder, he side-by-side told the information about the meat to the people who were traveling with him.

As for whether other people can understand it, or whether they want to believe it or not, he doesn't care.

Carmen and Victor didn't say anything, Sarah and Nash looked at each other inexplicably, a little overwhelmed.

Three or two sentences made everyone's appetite worse, and they didn't eat much.

After breakfast, the group, led by Randy, walked out of the Shipwreck Hotel.

Randy had previously reserved a multi-person tour bus. After they walked to the side of the road and waited for a few minutes, the multi-person tour bus, like a stretched sedan, stopped at the entrance of the hotel.

The group got into the car one after another, Sean and the four sat in the back of the car, and Randy sat in the front row of them.

When the vehicle passed through the city, everyone was quite fresh, pointing and sharing what they saw from time to time.

After passing through a narrow glass corridor, we entered an area with not so many tall buildings.

There are many factory-like buildings here, with tall chimneys sticking out of the blisters, and the very top can't be seen.

Randy, who has been introducing the scenery all the way, said: "This is the industrial area of ​​Ocean City - because of its sophisticated alchemy technology, Ocean City officials can refine some special metals and substances that have long been lost to the outside world.

"Industrial exports make up 50% of Ocean City's trade revenue..."

As Randy spoke, something suddenly flew in Sean's field of vision and stopped on the window glass.

Sean looked closely and saw that it was an almond-sized ladybug.

It has a golden casing that reflects the surrounding light and looks very gorgeous and delicate...

As it walked, it flapped its membrane wings under its carapace.

Sean narrowed his eyes, feeling that something was wrong with the beetle...

Snapped!

A hand slapped the window glass, hitting the golden beetle.

Sean's attention shifted to Randy's face, and the guide lady with braces smiled a little embarrassedly. When she raised her hand, the golden beetle seemed to stick to her hand and disappeared.

Randy clapped his hands and explained, "A variety of pests have recently appeared in agricultural areas - pests are very dangerous in Ocean City, and they can threaten steel structures or reduce agricultural production!

"So, Mr. Mayor asked us to get rid of all the small insects we saw..."

"You are quite active in responding to the call." Sean said blankly.

He felt that he had just seen some strange details on the ladybug.

But the time was too short to see clearly.

"Golden ladybug..." Sean thought to himself, "It's quite rare."

After passing through the industrial area, the tour bus stopped in a square.

Not far from getting off the bus, there is an ellipsoid-shaped building with blisters sticking out from the upper part of the sphere, and it seems that you can directly see the ocean above your head...

On the building's revolving door entrance, flashing neon lights form the words "Ocean City Fair".

There are several other pairs of tourists coming and going here, and it seems quite bustling and lively.

Under the leadership of Randy, Sean and his party walked into the exposition...

During the exposition, many core technologies related to the official use of Ocean City were exhibited.

One of them involves the energy problem of the submarine city.

Walking through the spacious showroom, Randy expertly explained the models on the side:

"Ocean City's generation energy core uses the thermal energy of the submarine volcano, and a device designed by Mr. Tesler that can use water pressure energy...

"...Later, we discovered a 'hypercube' in the nearby Vinland Trench.

"That thing from a higher dimension is constantly emitting an inexhaustible amount of energy.

"Ocean City has tripled in size since Mr. Tesler designed a device that harnesses the energy emitted by the 'Hypercube'..."

On a curtain on one wall, an animated hypercube is playing.

It rotates slowly in the trench, constantly changing into various three-dimensional geometric patterns...

"Hypercube?" Detective Solomon frowned, looking at the animation shown on the projector, "What is that?"

Randy stuck his tongue out: "It involves cutting-edge theoretical physics, and I can't tell. I heard from colleagues that it's a higher-dimensional object.

"Extremely rare in nature, this one in the Vinland Trench is the first ever discovered."

"Uh...it's very magical, you look at it from a different angle, every side you see, it's a different cube...

"Because the human brain is a three-dimensional creature, there is no way to construct its image in the brain..."

Sean stared at the animation in amazement, and had a guess in his heart: Is it some kind of mysterious object?

If it is a mystical heritage, how should it be graded as an infinite energy source?

Legendary, S-Class Mystery Legacy that surpasses the A-Class specification?

Solomon frowned and asked, "There is such a thing, aren't you afraid of a powerful country to **** it?"

"Mr. Tesler said a long time ago that the hypercube cannot be moved, so it doesn't matter if the information is released.

"Moreover, he hopes to attract outstanding scientists from all over the world to Ocean City to jointly solve this mystery..."

Sean pondered a little: "It can't be such a coincidence. The completion of Ocean City should be related to the endless energy in the Wenlan Trench. The so-called first-generation energy using the thermal energy of submarine volcanoes is just the first step to be able to use the hypercube. …

Sean's eyes flashed: "The completion of Ocean City must be because of this thing!

"The reason why it is said to be discovered later is to cover up Verne's "deep conspiracy" and "hidden secrets" in Tesler..."

Sean stared for a long time at the strange thing that kept spinning and changing.

After leaving the energy exhibition hall, Sean and his party visited the exhibition hall involving "precision alchemy".

This fusion product of ancient alchemy and clock technology, which once created Olivia's mysterious subject, is now officially mastered by Ocean City, and has become one of the core technologies on which to build this underwater city.

In the exhibition hall of precision alchemy, Sean heard the familiar name again: Dale Finch.

A legendary man who combined ancient alchemy and watchmaking techniques in the early sixteenth century.

Recognized as the "Father of Precision Alchemy".

"Dal Finch is inextricably linked to the Candlelight Reading Club and the Daedalus Foundation...

The copper pendant given by the old Pompeii man is now lying quietly in Sean's invisible stomach bag.

"What is the relationship between the Candlelight Reading Club and the Daedalus Foundation?

"How did Nikola Tesler acquire precision alchemy?"

As Sean pondered, he unconsciously looked at Olivia beside him.

At this time, the sophisticated girl held her head up, her emotionless red eyes, and quietly stared at a yellowed painting on the wall of the exhibition hall.

It depicts an old man with a curly beard and wise eyes.

Portrait of Dar Finch.

Everything seems to be related somehow...

Sean felt as if he had entered a "maze".
