Chapter 152 Unknown Existence
Listening to that voice, I started to walk forward along the river below. Although it was a little strenuous to move forward in the water, I was strong enough, so my speed did not slow down. . . . .
The riverbed of this underground river is very flat, with hard and flat rocks beneath its feet, without any silt or anything like that. The turquoise river water not only glows, but when I walk in it, it emits a more dazzling light like activated fluorescent liquid. This strange phenomenon makes the places I walk by shine like the focus of a spotlight. Bright, although this makes me more conspicuous, I have to say that this scene is really beautiful.
After walking along the river for a while, there was a bend. After turning here, the river began to branch. As if he knew what I was worried about, the voice sounded again. "The path to the Altar of Time is to the left, but if you want to see me, please go to the right."
I thought about it for a while and decided to go see the owner of the voice. The other person's words did not sound malicious. I even felt that the other person didn't care about me at all. It was like giving directions to a stranger on the road. The other person completely regarded me as a human being. The feeling of irrelevance was so strong that I decided to go see the owner of that voice. It's not dangerous anyway, it's not a big deal if you take a look.
I resolutely stepped onto the river on the right. After less than ten meters, the river began to rise. The water became shallower and shallower, but the water did not disappear completely. In the end, the water surface only dropped to below my knees, although it was no longer The impact acted, but the water was not completely gone.
After the river water became shallower, the river channel began to gradually narrow, and then continued to extend forward for a short distance before a circular area suddenly appeared in front of it. This place feels like an altar, surrounded by rock walls. There seems to be no exit, but it should not be completely closed, because the river here is flowing, which means there is a water outlet, but it can't be seen.
The area here is not very large. Located at the center of this circular area is a sculpture, which at least looks like a sculpture. The shape of this sculpture is rather weird. It looks like a huge sphere composed of a bunch of lines. The interior does not seem to be completely empty. There are more complex structures intertwined inside. Generally speaking, this thing is like a sepak takraw ball, but the material looks like stone.
When I heard the sound, I thought there would be a creature here, but I didn't expect that what I saw in the end was a sculpture, and it was not a sculpture of a creature. If this is a sculpture of a creature, I can also guess that he has been petrified or something, but even if the ball is unpetrified, he can't turn into an animal, right?
I was muttering here, and suddenly the previous voice sounded again. "I didn't expect you to actually come. It seems like you are not very nervous about falling into the gap between time and space, right?"
"Anyway, I'm already in. How can I go out if I'm nervous?"
The other person was stunned for a moment after I finished speaking, and then said: "A strange theory, but I have to admit that it makes sense. So, now that you have seen me, do you have any ideas?"
"I have two ideas. One is to ask about this space-time gap, and how to get out. The other is that I am very curious about you and want to know who you are, what abilities you have, and whether you can To be brought out of here to do something for me.”
"You are very honest."
"You have no ill intentions towards me, and you have no entity, and you cannot threaten me. Don't you think it's silly to continue to deceive me under such circumstances?"
"Silly?"
"Deception is a means, an act done to achieve a certain purpose. You and I can say now that we have no stake. What can I get by deceiving you? Since I can't get anything, why should I lie to you? When When deception becomes a habit, you are no longer deceiving others, but you are deceiving yourself!”
The other party was silent for a while again, and then spoke again: "I have to say that you are the most interesting person I have ever met. I am very interested in your theory, so I will answer your question. Which one do you want to hear first? answer?"
"Tell me about yourself first." (To be continued.
