Chapter 1844 The Symbol of the Lock

Here the walls are black, here the floor tiles are black, here the ceiling is black, here the twelve doors are also black.

They are inlaid equidistantly around the circular room, on the curved brick walls.

In fact, there were metal lampstands on the walls, with three candles in each. It's just that the originally faint blue candles have been extinguished, making this room deep in the ground that has not been invaded by gray fog become as dark as a foggy night... No, it may be darker than that, Because everything is black here.

With a wave of Maca's hand, he pushed open the barrier door of the magic elevator that could no longer be opened automatically, and walked in with a soft light in his other hand.

"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to come here and go through every hall, because there are still many hidden magic mysteries that may not be useful, but most of them are complex and interesting."

Maca led Sarah who was closely behind him, walked in, and said to himself:

"Look! Behind that door is the planetary room, which should have been constructed by some ancient wizards who like to study astronomy with magic. Entering it is like stepping into the starry sky of the universe. It's just that some planets have disappeared due to the magic running for a long time. Not very stable, like Pluto, it often explodes..."

"I think the room next door can be called the 'brain hall'. I guess it has something to do with you alchemists—there is a huge glass water tank in it, and the brains that seem to be activated by alchemy are kept in it. , I guess that may be another way of pursuing 'immortality' considered by the ancient alchemists..."

"The room next to it..." Maka said, moving his arm to the left again, pointing to the third door, "Oh, it's the Hall of Time, I've been there a few times... I think it's a bit different from me. A subtle fate."

He didn't seem to want to introduce the situation in the Hall of Time to Sarah, and he just passed it by in one sentence. Soon, his finger pointed to the fourth black door.

"By the way, this is the right one." Maca nodded, "Professor Dumbledore said that there is a power 'more amazing and terrifying than death, wisdom, and nature' , and at the same time... is also a very important power that is missing in your soul."

"Is it the 'love' you mentioned earlier?" Sarah asked immediately.

"It's just Professor Dumbledore calling it that," Maca spread his hands, "Actually, I don't really understand what its essence is... I just think it can be 'love', but it can also be 'love'." It's 'sin'."

The voice fell slightly,

When Sarah heard it and couldn't help but fell into thinking with confusion, Maca walked straight towards the door step by step.

"I used to want to pay attention to them, but it was not very convenient because this is the Ministry of Magic; and then, I didn't have that free time...including today, I can only take a look at this room first, and the others We’ll have to see if there’s another chance in the future.”

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked towards the black door.

"By the way, it's locked...in the words of Dumbledore, 'always locked'."

"Nobody opened it?"

Upon hearing this, Sarah finally stopped thinking that seemed meaningless to her at the moment, and approached the door.

"To be precise, it's 'no one can open'." Maca said, "Most of the buried buildings of the Ministry of Magic have been repaired and rebuilt, but the Department of Mysteries is the only one that has always maintained the old wizarding council. The appearance of the period. For nothing else, because this place cannot be changed by the means of modern wizards-including this 'locked' door."

While speaking, his palm was still lightly pressed against the door panel, carefully exploring the secret that the door could not be opened.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered, I think I should say sorry to you." Maca said casually, "Bringing you here, I don't just want to fill your soul for you, I also have my own. Purpose—You asked me earlier why I didn’t hide and study hard, right? In fact, the power hidden behind this door may allow me to explore the true meaning of soul rules one step ahead of Haierbo—while helping you , I'm also helping myself, which is what I called 'mutual advantage' at the time."

Having said that, he suddenly stared at the door in front of him and blinked, then suddenly showed a smile.

"I see."

"Can you open the door?" Sarah asked immediately after hearing this.

"No," Maca shook his head, "There is no need to open the door—I seem to understand that this door may be just a 'symbol'. It seems that the power inside is also just a 'symbol'."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly bent over slightly, gently took Sarah's wrist, and slowly pressed the latter's palm to the door.

"Putting your hands on it, it should help you feel the 'power' there more easily - close your eyes and open your mind, don't resist, try to feel it."

After helping Sarah finish all this, Maca followed her and closed her eyes slightly, and the two of them stood there silently touching the door.

Time passed bit by bit, the surroundings were quiet, there was no sound, as if the whole world was moving away from the two of them.

Before she knew it, Sarah felt that her consciousness, which had been so clear since she was "born" that year, was slowly blurring here.

"This... what... feels like."

After a while, Maca couldn't help but slightly opened his eyes, and glanced at Sarah beside him. Then, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows secretly.

"So fast?" He whispered to himself, "Well, although it is a 'flawed product', after all, it is a pure and incomparable soul created by the peak alchemy - the 'door lock' will not affect her too much Effect. In comparison, mine is more like a failure."

Obviously, Maca has indeed understood the nature of this door and the "lock" on the door.

In fact, the so-called "door lock" is the "lock" that comes from the heart of every person who stands in front of the door and tries to enter. When you think it is locked, then it is locked, and the more guarded it is, the harder it is for people to enter the "door".

And a pure and transparent soul like Sarah may not need the guidance of Maca just now, and can enter it by accident by coming by herself.

But for Maca, this is a bit difficult.

"The thinking is right, and there is nothing wrong with bringing her here." He looked at the closed door and couldn't help sighing, "It's just a little omission... This door may really be impossible to open... ...Even if you already understand its principle."

"unless--"

Suddenly, he withdrew his hand, looked down at his palm and thought about it secretly.
