Chapter 3519: The Spiral Evil Object
The task help given by the god allowed Xia De to directly sense the location of the mission site in the chaotic floor, so after stepping onto the floor, he took Miss Novare to the right. During the period of passing eight rooms in total on the left and right, he saw the elevator room, and next, he saw the room number plate of 2547.
Walking further forward, it was Room 2548.
The god on the first floor said last time that the wall damage of these two rooms made the two rooms interconnected to form the same space, and what Xia De needed to do was like a mason, using the most ordinary means to rebuild the wall, making the two rooms independent of each other.
Although this task content did not involve the existences inside the two rooms, in Xia De's view, he would have no chance to build a wall without fighting a battle.
He and Miss Novare discussed it and chose to enter from Room 2547. The closed room door opened with a light push, and there was nothing inside the door to welcome them.
Perhaps because the floor was higher, the area of this room was larger than any room everyone had seen before, almost the same as the most luxurious suite on the "Radiant Messenger," with a bedroom, bathroom, cloakroom, utility room, reception room, and smoking room all available.
The two didn't go to search for supplies, but checked every room. The room looked quite old, but there was no wall destroyed here.
The light of the kerosene lamp and candle illuminated the faces of the two, and Miss Novare put forward a conjecture:
"Perhaps what we see now is the appearance after the two rooms merged. Although this large room is not a symmetrical structure, no one said that the layout of Room 2547 and Room 2548 must be the same."
"The difficulty of this task might lie in letting us find the position where the wall should be."
Xia De also generally agreed with this view:
"I brought enough bricks and cement; it's completely fine to try a few more times in the position where there might be a wall."
Although they went out in a hurry, Miss Novare brought enough matches. With Miss Gerde guarding the safe house, they didn't have to rush back, but the strange witch saved by Xia De still needed more careful examination in Xia De's view.
There were no enemies in the room, so the two planned to collect supplies incidentally while checking the room for the second time. Of course, in this environment, they would not act separately.
Xia De planned to conduct the second search in clockwise order. He walked in front holding a candle, while Miss Novare fell slightly behind. It's just that at the same time Xia De entered that small bedroom, he noticed that the light behind him suddenly disappeared.
Looking back, Miss Novare's figure was already gone:
"Hmm?"
He frowned and returned to the living room outside, but didn't see the figure of the vampire witch either.
"What happened behind me just now?"
"She" gave an answer softly:
【The vampire disappeared when stepping into the bedroom.】
"Space transfer?"
He didn't continue searching, but wanted to exit the room and return to the corridor. But when he went to open the door again, he found that the door could no longer be opened.
"Key of the Door!"
Turning the doorknob with a little force, the room door was successfully opened. It's just that after opening the room door, the outside of the room door illuminated by the candle in Xia De's hand was not the corridor, but a room exactly the same as the one he was in.
Saying it was exactly the same was also not right; the placement of furniture and the degree of damage inside and outside the door had subtle differences. Inside and outside the door were not mirror images, but two rooms that were extremely similar.
It's just that the vampire witch was also not in the room opposite the door. Xia De stood at the door and thought for a while, then suddenly turned around and held the candle in his hand high. The candle illuminated the shadow on the right wall that wanted to move quickly into the darkness.
The shadow looked like a long, thin centipede, moving fast on the wall. But Xia De's speed was faster; the moonlight arrived at the wall in the next second, splitting the black shadow into two.
So the first half of the shadow entered the darkness, while the second half disappeared in the light. Xia De chased the shadow and returned to the depths of the room, and then entered the bathroom of the room along with the shadow.
In an instant, the world spun, as if stepping into the air and falling into a bottomless abyss. In front of his eyes was not a bathroom, but a strange space that seemed to be composed of all the walls, floors, and ceilings of the entire suite crushed and mixed together. All the components from different sources in the space were rotating and deforming, thus constituting a strange spiral.
The space no longer had only three dimensions, and the rotation direction of every space fragment in the spiral space was a new dimension, while Xia De, suspended in this space, felt that even his body was about to rotate.
It's just that the directions in which the limbs, torso, facial features, and even every strand of hair wanted to rotate were all different.
"What is this—Space Stabilization Halo!"
In the extreme sense of chaos and fatal danger, Xia De cast a spell. Thus, an invisible ripple in the void swept across this chaotic space. The strange combined space did not disappear because of this; instead, in the deepest part of the spiral space, a huge eye composed of spiral lines suddenly opened and looked at Xia De located in the center of the space.
That thing was entirely composed of black lines, and all the lines were also wriggling and spiraling. The "centipede" Xia De saw just now was clearly a part extending from this thing. This was some kind of evil object related to the concept of "spiral," and it was its power that twisted the space.
And while that huge eye was watching Xia De, his whole body really began to rotate in different directions. In an instant, his whole body's bones creaked, but Xia De, who reacted in time, immediately let his whole body disperse into a large group of dancing red butterflies.
Because this sorcery came from Grace and Helen, after Xia De had the most intimate relationship with them, the Red Butterfly incarnation actually had quite powerful spatial resistance.
Therefore, the red butterflies themselves did not twist under the gaze of the spiral eye, but the flight trajectories of the red butterflies that wanted to disperse and escape were still affected by that eye.
Each red butterfly was rotating and flying in different directions, and finally, almost all the red butterflies formed a spindle shape. And Xia De's consciousness also began to become chaotic in this contradictory flight. At this time, returning to human form would only fall into a more unfavorable state, so he manipulated those red butterflies with faint silver patterns on their wings to change their spiral trajectories.
The butterflies were connected head to tail, finally constituting a huge red ring. Although the ring was also connected head to tail, it was not a flat straight ring, but a flipped "infinite ring."
As the butterflies flew and rotated faster and faster, the red infinite ring became brighter and brighter. The "Space Stabilization Halo" was used for the first time in the Red Butterfly state. As the red butterflies used sorcery to stir the space, the flipping of this strange spiral space actually gradually became consistent with the red butterflies, until even that huge eye composed of spiral lines began to vaguely transform toward the "infinite ring."
A space with multi-dimensional coordinates could not form a true ring body, so Xia De guided the surrounding space to change toward the configuration of the "Bottle of Boundlessness" that Sylvia had shown him before the Year-End Festival.
The power of the "Space Stabilization Halo" became more and more powerful under the rapid rotation of the red butterflies. Just as the entire surrounding space was completely transformed into the configuration of the "Bottle of Boundlessness," that huge spiral eye detached from the space itself and collided straight with the red butterflies.
Moonlight erupted in the space at this moment, and then soaked every corner of this strange space. And when the moonlight extinguished, clear shattering sounds came from every space fragment, and then the room returned to its initial state.
Darkness still shrouded here, and the candle dropped under his feet had extinguished. Xia De stood in the living room holding his head, feeling that all kinds of strange thoughts in his head were still colliding. Under his feet, a group of black lines that seemed to have been peeled off from a sketch were wriggling and trying to escape, and then were firmly bound by the "Confinement Halo" of silver, red, and yellow colors.
This was the main body of the "Spiral Evil Object." It was only good at twisting space. After finding that Xia De had snatched spatial control in a peculiar way, it wanted to collide with Xia De and directly twist Xia De's main body, and then it was defeated head-on by the power of holy moonlight.
A "2547" mark floated above that group of black lines, representing that it was the "guest" of Room 2547.
"She" whispered softly:
【Outsider, you have gained insight into "spiral" and "reciprocal cycle."】
Enduring the urge to vomit, he picked up the 【Dawn of Breaking】 that had just fallen to the ground and relit the candle. With the firelight of the candle, he looked carefully at the evil object again. The twisted appearance made Xia De feel his thoughts become chaotic and disordered again just by looking at it.
Although the evil object was controlled, its main body still extended a separate black line outward. Xia De tracked into the kitchen along the black line and finally found that an area of about twelve bricks on the kitchen wall was a phantom, and that black line passed through the "phantom bricks" and went behind the wall.
Behind the wall was Room 2548.
Xia De was observing carefully while holding the candle, but the "phantom bricks" all disappeared abruptly at this moment, so the candle illuminated behind the wall, and then he saw another himself looking over from behind the wall.
"Mirror? So that's it; both rooms are spatial evil objects."
He swung his sword and was about to fight another battle with the thing that was imitating him, but with a *Crack*, the "Xia De" on the opposite side directly split a crack and then disappeared, and then Xia De saw the full picture of the black metal mirror.
And sure enough, there was an extra crack on the mirror.
"Hmm... did it commit suicide?"
【You possess divinity, so you possess uniqueness.】
"She" explained gently.
Xia De then swung his sword to cut off the black line connected to the mirror, and then took out the prepared red bricks from his pocket to fill the gap on the wall. After the last brick was filled into the wall, Xia De's "new brick" immediately transformed toward the appearance of the wall itself.
Ten seconds later, the gap could no longer be seen on the wall. The second task of the Old God - 【Lord of the Walls】 was completed, but Miss Novare still did not appear. ===== CHAPTER 3520 =====
