What caught Leo's eyes was a dark golden metal dome. It was the hemispherical mechanical dome that shrouded the sky, making a shocking buzzing sound.

The column erected in the center of the previous staircase fell from the middle of the sky and landed in the middle of the hemispherical room. And many huge dark golden mechanical parts are densely hung on the sky, and the orderly movement is the huge gear set that drives the entire tower. It's like a pocket watch magnified many times.

And in the semi-shaped hall. There are ten spiral staircases spiraling upwards. They lead to the first floor to the thirteenth floor respectively, the outermost circle is the building, and the innermost spiral staircase closest to the column leads directly to the thirteenth floor. The circular corridors on each floor are only about one grain six wide, and they look like threads on the inner wall of a sphere.

Twelve chandeliers of different sizes and heights are also directly combined in the gear set above. Five of them are fixed, while the seven are drawing different trajectories and rotating at different revolution speeds and rotation speeds.

It's like some kind of space simulation, and it's like a geometric diagram.

Warm bright yellow lights sprinkled in this hemispherical enclosed space. Each floor has many corridors extending in all directions and going deeper, and in this hall, there are thirteen floors of ring-shaped cabinets.

There are parchment scrolls, papyrus, bamboo slips, cheap paper books, and even stone and clay tablets. These books of various styles take up four-fifths of the space. Elsewhere there were strange rocks, round **** of unknown purpose, metal plates with sharp edges, a stool, a wooden barrel, a suitcase, and a small wooden box with double counterweights. Catapults... and a few other things, but too high up. Leo really couldn't see the contents of those who were looking for it clearly; some people opened the folded wooden boards under the cabinet group, and came over with a stool to seriously copy the contents of books or stone boards.

"This Leo was immediately overwhelmed by the beauty of this scene.

For the first time in his life, he saw such a shocking beauty. So precise yet so grand, so cold and silent yet alive.

That is the beauty of rules, the beauty of machinery

"A miracle." Leo couldn't help but sighed, staring at everything in front of him.

The only word to describe it is "miracle".

That's a miraculously great project

Watching this scene, Leo felt that he suddenly understood those people kneeling in front of the tower and worshiping the God of Mechanics. Just cold gold. Its essence is no different from the murderous sword and shield armor. But through the wisdom of the craftsmen, they can create such a magnificent building "Welcome to the Hall of Seeing. This is our most sacred gathering place.

Phoenix's voice sounded behind Leo:

"I like it very much. But no matter how much I like it, I can't live here like them." Leo reluctantly looked away from his surroundings, and said casually: "I don't think His Majesty will allow it.

"That's right." Phoenix was very satisfied with Leo's awareness, "Just as long as you understand your mission.

She walked Leo forward, and everyone she met on the way saluted her.

They looked at Phoenix, touched their throats, eyes, mouth, and heart with their right hands, and then whispered respectfully: "Salute to my Holy Scarlet. Leo saw all the people gathered and saluted Phoenix , chant and back away. Phoenix didn't salute them back, nor did she turn her gaze away. She just looked ahead. Looking at the raised altar in the middle of the Hall of Seeing. Leo could only see it as an altar.

It was a heavy ring with a total of thirteen layers rising from the ground. On the smallest perfect circle in the middle, there is a dark and simple throne.

The throne was nearly two meters high, and it was carved out of a single huge stone. On the throne, and on the thirteen platforms below the throne. Many abstract symbols are engraved on them. Leo could barely see that beneath the symbol was a short text that looked like a name, etched in a different language. and accurate time to year. The number of these symbols adds up to about six or seven hundred. And Phoenix's pace stopped in front of the platform of the thirteen rings.

Seeing her movements, the people around gathered together. They seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time. One by one, they returned to their own ranks, looked down at the platform in the center of the Holy See Hall in all directions, and looked at Joliot.

"This is called the Holy Throne. Phoenix turned around and said seriously: "One of the most sacred places in the world. Leo didn't know why, so he just nodded.

And Phoenix said loudly: "Eternal Saint has passed the review. I will hold the core member induction ceremony for the newcomer Leo.

Afterwards, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper walked over to Leo's side, put a handful of white frankincense into Phoenix's hand, and then backed away. In the end, everyone went up the stairs, and only Phoenix and Leo were left in the hall on the first floor.

"Don't come here yet, just stop here." Phoenix whispered to Leo. Then she held the frankincense in her hand, and walked towards the thirteen steps solemnly.

"In the name of justice, wisdom, benevolence, and integrity!" she shouted loudly, sticking the frankincense.

subsequently. She stepped forward again.

At this time, all the scholars in the building shouted at the same time: "In the name of justice, wisdom, evil, benevolence, and integrity!" After that, Phoenix took a step forward for the third time. The same shout came from the people on the third floor. Repeatedly, until she got the promise of the people on the top floor, she reached the top floor. Leo was fascinated by such a mysterious ceremony, and watched all this intently. I saw Phoenix put the frankincense on the throne, and the dancing scarlet flame burned the frankincense mixed with special spices in an instant. The strange fragrance came, which made Leo's mind gradually calm down.

The next moment, all the lights went out instantly without warning.

Just when Leo was feeling flustered. But Phoenix's voice came: "Don't be nervous, Leo.

"Calm down and perceive everything around you. Then avoid obstacles, don't fall, and sit up.

Are you talking about this now, Lord Phoenix? "Leo frowned tightly, and whispered: "I didn't remember the terrain just now.

"I just can't tell you in advance," Phoenix's voice sounded in the darkness, "Here, you can do it as long as you think about it. Believe in yourself, what kind of irresponsible statement is this?

I don't have the talent of a blind man! Leo couldn't help but want to talk back. But before he could complain, something miraculous happened the next moment.

In his field of vision, the throne suddenly began to emit a faint blue light. No, it's not so much the brilliance as the transparent outline. It was clearly visible, but the light did not illuminate the surroundings. Then, the outline of Phoenix became clear before Leo's eyes. It was an extremely stable and vibrant vermilion. Then came the dark golden outline of the platform. These colors are not exact. Or they were still colorless, but Leo felt they should be. He raised his head in surprise and looked around.

In the hemispherical space, nearly half of the people emitted dim lights of different intensities and inconsistent colors. The other half is completely transparent and almost invisible. Neither the railings and stairs, nor the gear sets in the sky, nor the chandelier appeared in his vision.

what is this? Intense curiosity arose in Leo's heart.

He vaguely felt that a new door opened to him.

But for the time being, he suppressed the doubts in his heart, and easily walked up to the thirteenth-step disc and climbed to the top.

He subconsciously looked at Phoenix's shadow. After she nodded to herself, Leo sat on the black throne.

Then, Phoenix chanted aloud, like a bird singing: "Worship knowledge as you worship light"

As soon as her words fell, everyone chanted in low voices at the same time.

"We worship knowledge as much as we worship light.
