Chapter 474: The Wit Puzzle and the Key to Breaking It
Inside the room, the patterns on the walls seemed to move slowly as if alive, and the symbols on the floor flickered erratically, weaving together a complex and mysterious puzzle. Lin Yu and his team stood up, roused themselves, and their eyes darted back and forth among these strange pieces of information.
Ellie first walked to a wall, gently touching the flowing patterns with her fingers, trying to find a pattern. "These patterns seem to tell an ancient story, related to the origin of the energy core." She stared intently at the wall, her eyes shining with focus, "but some key parts seem to be missing, and we need to find a way to fill in the gaps."
At the same time, a team member noticed that the symbols on the ground were lighting up in a specific order, forming a winding path. "Look, could this be guiding us forward?" he said. As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding symbols suddenly changed their flashing rhythm, and the original path became chaotic and disordered.
Lin Yu frowned, lost in thought. He realized that these puzzles were interconnected, and that any wrong judgment could lead to complete failure. "We can't try blindly. Let's sort through all the clues first." He squatted down and used his energy pen to trace the general outline of the symbols on the ground.
The team members gathered around, discussing the issue animatedly. Some suggested starting with the pictographs in the pattern to interpret its meaning; others proposed finding a time pattern based on the flashing frequency of the symbols. In the midst of the heated discussion, Lin Yu suddenly noticed an inconspicuous groove in the corner of the room, its shape similar to the missing part of the pattern on the wall.
“Ellie, go scan that groove and see if there’s any unusual energy reaction,” Lin Yu said, pointing to the groove. Ellie quickly took out her device and scanned the groove. “There’s a faint energy fluctuation here, and it seems to resonate with the patterns on the wall,” she said excitedly.
Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat. He recalled some clues he had seen in the ruins before, which might be connected to this groove. He searched his memory carefully and suddenly remembered the code he had cracked on the stone door before. Some of the symbols in it were very similar to the patterns around the groove.
"I think I know what to do." Lin Yu stood up, walked to the groove, and gently tapped the symbols around the groove according to the sequence of the code he remembered. As he did so, a small crystal device slowly rose from the groove, emitting a soft blue light.
"This crystal might be the key to completing the pattern." Lin Yu carefully picked up the crystal and walked towards the wall. When the crystal approached the missing part of the pattern, it suddenly emitted a strong light, merging with the wall surface, and the missing pattern was instantly completed.
As the pattern became complete, the symbols on the ground rearranged and combined to form a clear path. The group followed the path and arrived at the other end of the room. There stood a tightly closed stone door, covered in intricate runes, exuding a mysterious aura.
Ellie took out her analytical instruments and scanned the stone door. "The energy structure of this door is very complex; it seems to require a specific password to open," she said, frowning. Lin Yu recalled the previous clues and discovered a mathematical relationship between the runes on the door, the symbols on the ground, and the patterns on the walls.
Together with his teammates, he began to deduce the code based on these clues. Time ticked by amidst tense calculations and attempts. Finally, Lin Yu found the correct combination of codes. He took a deep breath and entered the code into the control device of the stone gate.
With a deep rumble, the stone door slowly opened, releasing an ancient and powerful surge of energy. Behind the door lay an even deeper space, containing a massive instrument that shimmered with various lights, echoing the energy core.
“It seems we’ve passed the Trial of Wisdom. This device might be related to the final step in controlling the energy core,” Lin Yu said, leading his team into the room. However, as they approached the device, it suddenly emitted a strong fluctuation, and the surrounding environment began to shake violently, seemingly warning them not to approach lightly.
At this crucial moment, will they be able to successfully unlock the secrets of the instrument, complete the final test of unity, and take control of the energy core?
