Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 2040 Hidden Stairs
Enter a room and the route changes after you come out.

Is this kind of operation normal for the Glowing Ion Priory?
This time it was indeed abnormal, and Li Chengxi specifically went to find Captain Maxim to confirm it. The latter said that he had never seen such a mechanism, at least never in the branch where they originally lived.

Rather than saying it is a road, it is more like an intentionally designed attack channel, which makes it convenient to tie up invaders and trap them inside and fight them against the defense facilities.

Everyone looked inside from the opening in the wall. It was a crooked corridor with a high ground on one side and a low ground on the other side. It looked a bit like the specially designed confusing corridors in a science and technology museum.

Apart from that, the passage was pitch black, without even the emergency lights that are standard for emergencies. It was obviously not a place for normal passage.

He adjusted the aperture of the light on his chest to make it more focused so that it could shine farther.

Everyone immediately scanned out something resembling a human figure in the darkness of the passage, which looked like a corpse.

Their attire is similar to the bodies found before, so they should be from the same group of people, and it can be seen that they were shot to death.

There may be more further away, but the lights can no longer reach that far.

The group of people who came in first may have encountered the same situation as Alyssa and her friends, but the other party chose to break through by force. The existence of the corpses clearly tells you that this is a corridor full of traps and mechanisms.

Just rushing in without thinking...

It felt like I was being beaten into a sieve, especially since I couldn't tell whether the defense mechanisms in the passage had been dismantled.

This extremely dangerous road was obviously not Alyssa's first choice. She looked inside the passage, turned back and knocked on the wall that blocked her way back.

"Get on the cutter and go back the same way."

The wall was almost as thick as the airlock door, and the previous group of people might not be able to break it, so there was only one option.

But Alyssa has many choices.

The soldier carrying the magic flame thrower came up quickly, reset the mode, and then started cutting the wall like welding.

And it really doesn't take much effort, but the strong light is a bit dazzling, so you need to turn on the light filter mode of the mask.

When the people of the Glow Ion Yin Society designed this mechanism, they must have thought that the invaders would choose to cut the wall to escape, so they must have used solid materials that cannot be cut under normal circumstances.

But even the Glowing Ion Yin Society is subject to the limitations of the times.

No one can tell exactly how long this planetary fortress has existed. It has been four or five hundred years since the last member of the Glowing Ion Yin Order died, and the fortress may have existed since the era of the Genesis Cult a thousand years ago.

No matter how advanced the technology of the Glow Ion Yin Society is, other people have not been idle over the past thousand years, and technology has been constantly improving.

The titanium alloy that was thought to be indestructible when it was built is no longer so reliable.

The cutting machine mode of the magic flame thrower is used to cut the armor plates of warships, and cutting it is a piece of cake.

This is like an ancient sword that can cut iron like mud and cut hair like a feather. It is a rare treasure.

In modern times, you can just find a processing factory, tell them how much you want, and everything will be fine as long as the money is in place.

So it took less than ten minutes to easily cut out a hole large enough for large units like Benben and Xista to pass through.

Alyssa stepped forward and kicked, slamming the cut metal plate to the ground, and everyone immediately returned to the center of the hall. The road on the right side of the hall might not be a dead end, but there was a counter-attack corridor, and a forced breakthrough would likely result in non-combat casualties.

For now, it seems that we can only try the road on the left.

But don't forget that there is a hole in the chest of the statue in the center of the hall, and everyone has just found something in the exhibition hall that can be put in, and the shape of the slot seems to be suitable.

Let’s give it a try. It can’t be a self-destruct switch, right?

Sophia climbed up first, and then the soldiers below handed her the sphere found in the exhibition hall. The thing was quite heavy, and Sophia felt a little tired dragging it into the hole with one hand.

After fiddling with it for a while, she heard the sound of something sliding into the latch and locking, and Sophia quickly jumped down.

Everyone then took a few steps back, ready to run away at any time.

Although the statue turned into the statue of Li Chengxi due to Orde's touch, it was built by the Glow Ion Yin Xiu Society after all. No one knows what it is used for, so it is better to be careful.

There was no response in the first few seconds, and Alyssa thought it was damaged because it had been taking too long. Until five or six seconds later, everyone heard a buzzing sound, like something starting to work.

A layer of blue light lit up in the hole on the statue's chest. The shape looked a bit like Iron Man, but the blue light became brighter and more concentrated, like a searchlight.

Everyone quickly avoided the area where the blue light was shining. As the brightness increased, the blue light looked like a clear beam of light, slanting across the metal floor.

The area illuminated by the blue light also lit up with a circle of light, which seemed to spread along the anti-slip patterns of the floor, forming a standard circle.

And the same pattern not only appears on the floor, but also on the ceiling, which is a bit confusing.

Then, everyone felt a slight tremor under their feet.

The floor illuminated by the light began to move up and down like a piston, and the same was true where the light circles appeared on the ceiling. As the area they spread over became larger and larger, everyone had to retreat further and further.

In a short while, the ceiling and the floor moved up and down, and dark silver metal stakes connected to each other from deep inside. The sound of metal parts colliding and biting each other could be heard continuously.

A spiral staircase leading to the ceiling appeared in front of everyone. The staircase was wide enough for ten people to walk side by side, and it extended all the way to the ceiling.

Even the well-informed Alyssa had never seen such a way to hide the stairs.

The intensity of the blue light on the statue's chest was significantly weakened, and it turned into a breathing light pattern that alternated between bright and dark. Alyssa and the others waited there for a while, and after confirming that there were no more changes, they moved closer to the stairs and looked up.

Through the open ceiling, you can see normal lights above, but you can't see anything more from below.

"It's an empty room up there, and I see some seats along the wall, some like a waiting room."

As the entrance opened, Ordai's Mystic Eye flew up. She observed for a moment and continued:
"There is a door, but my arcane eyes cannot confirm whether it is locked."

"Let's go up."

When Alyssa heard that there was no danger, she immediately decided to go up and take a look.

This is a secret passage that requires special equipment to open. If the people from the Glow Ion Yin Society want to hide something good, this is probably the place, right?
