Xia Duo chose to go deep into the rock mass in a direction perpendicular to the road and closer to the core palace, but he soon encountered an obstacle——
There is still a barrier in the rock mass!
So Xia Duo did not go to the square he first discovered, but continued deeper into the rock mass along the outer edge of the barrier. He wanted to see the general coverage area of the barrier.
After a while, he came to the edge of the plane, probably called the edge of the plane. After all, this is also a folded space bounded from the main plane.
Except that the size is not as good as the main plane, everything else is the same as the main plane.
The main plane has a plane edge, so naturally this folded space also has it. The moment he saw the plane edge, Sha Duo immediately realized that the protective magic on the two squares was not one.
Maybe they are related in the puzzle, but at least on the surface the two are separate.
Xia Duo speculated that in order to maintain the long-term existence of the core area, Secret Mystery Lock had to selectively cut off support for some other non-core areas.
Of course, it is also possible that the Mystery Locks have been in disrepair for a long time, and the Mystery Locks in some areas have naturally failed, but considering that the collapse of the Mystery Locks is often accompanied by magic network riots.
The place that resembled a living area just now was almost in its original state, except that it was a little dilapidated and covered with dust. It didn't look like it had experienced the magic network riots.
Therefore, Xia Duo prefers the automatic selection of the myth lock, or the active setting of the maintainer, thereby giving up the maintenance and protection of non-core areas.
…
Then Xia Duo returned to the square he first discovered. Unlike the square he discovered later which had only two passages, this square had passages on all sides, but three of them were blocked.
After a brief investigation, Xia Duo found that the three passages were still blocked by barriers. At the same time, the barriers in these three directions were still separated from the barriers in the other square and were independent of each other.
Xia Duo speculated that there was a core area in each of the three directions, but he did not find the torrent of magic network strings near the three enchantments similar to the previous palace on one side of the square.
Therefore, even if the core areas in these three directions are important, they are probably not as important as the previous palace.
…
Afterwards, Xia Duo searched the entire folded space and found a total of one, two, and four small barriers. The largest barrier was the area where the core palace was located.
The two medium-coverage barriers are located on both sides of the largest barrier, and the three are almost on the same straight line. The four small barriers are located on the same side of this straight line, scattered and scattered.
In addition to the living area, Xia Duo also discovered a material warehouse. Because it was too old, except for some gems, gold, and fine gold that could remain intact, even the mithril had deteriorated and rusted.
Of course, most of them were things that looked suspiciously like food. The piles of black ash did not look like traces of metal, wood, or cloth.
After such a long time, the wood has either decayed, or has become petrified or crystallized. Although the cloth has decayed, its original form can still be distinguished.
As for metals, only the deterioration caused by the transmutation of elements will change their essence. Otherwise, even if they are corroded, they will only exist in a different form and can still be detected.
As for gold and gems, they will almost never deteriorate or rust, especially the former. The latter may have some changes in properties during long-term storage, but gems are always good.
Fine gold is slightly worse than gold, but it can still maintain its original shape. If it is rubbed a little, it will continue to have a metallic luster.
Considering that this area is only unprotected, but is still essentially covered by the Mystery Lock, Xiaduo has not moved anything in the warehouse to avoid conflicts with the ancient defenders.
If possible, he still hopes to live in peace and negotiate calmly with the other party, at least during the initial period of contact.
…
During the time when Xia Duo's incarnation was personally exploring the folded space, his body also completed many explorations of the macroscopic magic network in the folded space with the help of the detection array in the laboratory on the main plane.
Of course, since the detection array acts on Youwei, its detection of the macroscopic magic network also starts from the micro level. Therefore, in this process, it is necessary to collect a large amount of data on the flow status of the strings of the magic network, and then through analysis, the specific macroscopic magic network can be obtained. network status.
This part seems cumbersome and complicated, and it is actually like this, but after all, Sha Duo still has an incarnation in the folded space. He can make corrections to the detection process and direction of the detection circle through observation from a macro perspective.
This is actually an analysis process, and with the help of the brain, it progresses very smoothly.
…
Secret place, in front of the passage outside the square in front of the core palace.
Sha Duo's incarnation stood like a wooden figure for a long time, and occasionally his eyes became alert. After an unknown amount of time, Sha Duo's body finally stopped analyzing.
It’s not that it’s unsustainable, but it’s enough and now it’s time to make a decision!
He initially judged that most of the functions of the secret land lock were in a dormant or closed state, but the core area was still protected with caution.
There are two roads before him now——
One is to try to use the method of obtaining permissions recorded in the Dragon Crazy Secret Volume. This is also the easiest way to verify whether this is Feres Fortress.
But the secret scroll was made by someone else. Who knows if this is a signal to wake up the defenders! Of course, if there is no problem with the secret scroll, once it succeeds, the benefits will be huge, which means that he can almost control Ferres Fortress.
Another way is to try to gain access to the Mystery Lock through invasion, which can also be used to determine whether this is Feres Fortress.
The advantage is that as long as you are careful, there is a high probability that you will not alert the possible defenders of the secret land. The disadvantage is that there is a smaller probability of triggering some countermeasures of the secret land.
Of course, there is another way that almost only flashed in Sha Duo's mind for a moment, which is to use the overlap of portable space to enter the core area, but the barrier is not an empty shell, but a field.
If you don't seize the authority or paralyze the barrier function, you will still be counterattacked even if you enter.
So the question still comes back to the mystery lock permissions, whether to try to use the method of obtaining permissions in the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll, or to try to obtain permissions through intrusion.
If this secret place could be determined not to be Feres Fortress, then Xia Duo might not have such entanglements, but now many phenomena here reminded him that this was most likely Feres Fortress.
In this case, if permission is obtained through intrusion, it will be difficult to have room for change if it fails.
But if he uses the method in the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll, he is worried that it is a trap. This makes it really difficult to make a choice!
