"How many things are hidden underground..."
Entering the inverted palace, Jiang Bai rubbed the goosebumps on his hands.
There was an inexplicably depressing atmosphere in the air, which combined with the strange and inverted palace made him feel horrified.
It is said that the ancient country of Kanria is also located underground. Jiang Bai really can't figure out what kind of underground space it is that can give birth to such a huge kingdom.
Could it be said that the center of the earth in Teyvat is empty?
Or is it that, like this ruins, Kanria's cities are also located in huge empty spaces?
"Let's investigate in this palace first." After Mandrill finished speaking, the figure disappeared.
I don't know how long this palace has existed, and the patterns on the stone carvings on the palace walls are something Jiang Bai has never seen before.
Too much time has passed, and the things that once existed in this palace have long since weathered and disappeared.
Some palace buildings were floating against gravity, and Jiang Bai even saw an inverted pool.
This pool is located in the center of the entire palace. Even though the palace is dilapidated, you can still see the grandeur of the place. It is also the best-preserved place in the entire palace.
It is obvious that this pool has extraordinary significance to the people who once lived here.
Even this pool has escaped the washing of time and is still flowing to this day.
Jiang Bai raised his head and looked at the pool that could not be explained by common sense. He had the illusion that the world was turned upside down.
Basic gravity and gravity seem to have no effect on these buildings. The water in the pool above the head seems to follow another kind of gravity, and not a drop falls down.
This scene is so confusing.
Which direction is the positive direction?
Is it positive? Or am I right?
If this direction is the real forward direction, doesn't it mean that everything he sees is the opposite?
Or is it that Teyvat has two gravity modes?
One set for the surface and another set for the center of the earth?
Jiang Bai imagined a cross-section of a normal planet in his mind.
The normal surface is where the Seven Kingdoms are now. They are affected by gravity, and objects will fall downwards.
In the unfathomable center of the earth, there is a dark and empty place. The gravity there is completely opposite to that of the surface, and the buildings appear upside down in the eyes of people on the surface.
Perhaps, the ancient country of Canria existed in such an environment.
In this way, Teyvat is more like a hollow ring than a round three-dimensional planet.
Jiang Bai felt that his conjecture was quite reasonable. It could at least explain why the palace was upside down.
But another problem arises.
The depth here should be far from reaching the center of the earth, and it still follows normal gravity.
Therefore, the conjecture just made seems to have no meaning.
Jiang Bai shook his head and shook off the messy thoughts in his mind. This kind of overly philosophical question was not something he could explore. The more he thought about it, the easier it was to end up in a dead end and become a madman.
It uses a photo camera to record these scenes. When it goes to Xumi, it may be used to embarrass scholars in Xumi.
"Did you find anything?" Mandrill appeared behind Jiang Bai.
"Except for this inverted pool, I didn't find anything special." Jiang Bai spread his hands.
This palace has existed for an unknown number of years. Except for the rocks on which the palace was built, which have not been worn away by time, some other artifacts have long since disappeared into time.
Although Jiang Bai has visited many ruins, he is not an archaeologist or a professional in this field.
It's really impossible to get any useful information based solely on the architectural form and artistic style of the ruins.
"I just went to take a look below. The lower part is wrapped in a fog, making it impossible to enter and see what's going on inside."
"under?"
Jiang Bai walked out of the hall and looked down.
It was pitch black below, and the light of the Lumen Stone Catalyst was also limited.
After staring down for a long time, I felt like I was being affected.
Jiang Bai looked at Mandrill, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Mandrill has nothing to hide, and being honest helps to better explore this unknown place.
"The aura here can evoke negative emotions in my heart and affect my spirit. If I hadn't carried the fragments of the Sky Nail, my karma would have broken out in an instant."
The karma on his body is usually suppressed, and this kind of place that can affect his spirit is very dangerous for him.
Jiang Bai took out Lianli Zhenxin Powder, "Want a sip?"
"Being not."
Lianli Zhenxin Powder can help him suppress his karma, but if he takes too much, he will develop drug resistance.
He can still suppress it now and doesn't need to eat for the time being.
"Then have some mint jelly."
Mint jelly does not have as strong an effect as Lianli Zhenxin Powder, but some drugs are also added to it, and eating it can soothe the mind.
The mandrill did not refuse.
"I'll go down and take a look."
Jiang Bai jumped directly, and under the light of the lumen stone, everything around him was clearly visible.
He looked around and saw dark filth everywhere he looked.
The power of the abyss here has completely eroded the surrounding rock formations, and the large tracts of black mud are even larger than those in the space above.
And this is only the periphery. The real center is shrouded in thick fog, and an even more filthy atmosphere emanates from it.
Jiang Bai felt a little tricky.
The purification power that the lumen catalyst on the body can bring is very limited. It can only purify some black mud that is not too thick, and it is powerless against the abyssal forces that have invaded the rock formations.
Let alone entering this fog.
But there must be a big secret in the fog, and we have to go in and check.
"Tsk, I have a headache..."
I have the urge to go to the snowy mountains and carry the entire Cold Sky Nail.
or? Go and carry half a stick?
If you can't carry it with one, the smaller half should be fine.
Thinking about it, he just did it and quickly returned to the leyline anchor point he had recorded before and came to the snow mountain.
Poor Han Tianzhi was visited by Jiang Bai from time to time, and this time it was even less than a third.
Jiang Bai carried the Hantian Nail, which was taller than others, and stubbornly resisted the gathering gravity of the Hantian Nail itself, returning to the abyss through the earth anchor point.
Seeing Jiang Bai coming back carrying something familiar, the black mud wherever he passed dissipated as quickly as possible.
Mandrill suddenly understood the emperor’s intention of letting him be with Jiang Bai.
With Jiang Bai here, it will indeed be much safer.
If only he appeared in this kind of space, the situation would probably be extremely bad.
Looking at the rock formations that remained unchanged even under the illumination of the Cold Sky Nail, Jiang Bai sighed.
Against this stubborn disease, Hantian Nail can do nothing.
Fortunately, these rock formations are not as dangerous as black mud, so they can be ignored for the time being.
