Chapter 99 The Bronze Gate (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

Otto stopped what he was doing and looked at the prompt in front of him with a puzzled expression.

Clearly, the magic-imitation ape has found a way to open the mechanism.

The magic-mimicking ape proudly raised its chin, then looked at you with disdain, as if you were looking at a curly-haired baboon.

The Magic-Phantom Ape stated that the gargoyle statues are unimportant; the circulation of magic is crucial. As long as the correct flow of magic can be simulated, the mechanism can be activated even without another gargoyle.

[The Magic-Phantom Ape says, with your meager level of magic control, simulating the correct flow of magic is probably a bit difficult. After all, not everyone is as intelligent as it.]

The Moonlit Spirit Hound beat up the Magic-Imitation Demon Ape.

[The Moonlit Spirit Dog is saying, "Quickly tell me how to fix the mechanism! If you dare to dawdle any longer, I'll smash your monocle!"]

The Magical Ape, frustrated, expressed its willingness to teach you, but also protested that these animals showed no respect for intellectuals and hoped you would replace them immediately!

Otto could barely suppress a smile as he watched the Moonlit Spirit Hound teach the Magic-like Demon Ape a lesson.

"You're absolutely right, but I refuse!"

Just kidding, what could be more enjoyable than watching the magic-simulating ape that mocks you every day get humiliated?

Seeing Otto's gloating expression, the Magical Ape seemed to realize that it had no help.

The Magical Ape felt frustrated. "You've embarked on the path of order, so why won't you help your pitiful, weak, and helpless self?"

[The Magic-like Ape declares that although its soul has succumbed to the beating, its yearning for chaos will never be defeated!]

The Magic Ape explained the mechanism's workings: the principle is actually quite simple. Inside the gargoyle statue is a complex magical circuit. By injecting magic into this circuit in a specific order and frequency, a complete cycle is formed, thus activating the mechanism.

With the explanation from the magic ape, Otto finally understood how to unlock the mechanism.

First, Otto needs to concentrate his magic at his fingertips and then gently tap them on the gargoyle's left eye.

Infuse it with a small amount of magic power for three seconds.

Then, move your fingertip to the gargoyle's right eye and infuse it with twice the magic power for two seconds.

Next, move your fingertips into the gargoyle's mouth and quickly inject magic three times, with a one-second interval between each injection.

Finally, let the magic flow slowly down the gargoyle's wings from top to bottom.

The Magic Ape warned Otto that this was simulating the magic of the activator, and it had to be precise without the slightest error.

If any step goes wrong, the mechanism will fail to activate, and may even trigger a trap.

Seeing this, Otto simply nodded, firmly memorizing the steps the Magic Ape had described.

He took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and slowly mobilized the magic power within his body.

Otto's current Firebringer is a rare class with all attributes boosted, which also gives him a slight amplification in his control over magic, making it easy for him to control even a small amount of magic.

Following the instructions of the magic ape, he gently touched the gargoyle's left eye with his fingertip.

A faint wisp of fire magic flowed from his fingertips and slowly seeped into the gargoyle's left eye.

Just as the last bit of magic finished flowing out, the entire gargoyle statue suddenly began to shake violently.

Its eyes gradually glowed with a dazzling red light, like two burning fireballs, which looked particularly eerie in the dimly lit room.

The Magical Ape excitedly declared, "Thanks to my guidance, you succeeded!"

Sure enough, accompanied by a series of cracking sounds as the stones rubbed together, the gargoyle statue began to move on its own in Otto's hands.

It first turned its head, then spread its wings, and finally circled around Otto's palm.

Immediately afterwards, Otto heard a heavy sound.

The tall bookshelf slowly began to move to the side.

Behind the bookshelf was originally a blank wall.

But as the gargoyle's eyes were completely filled with red light, the brick wall that made up the wall slowly moved to both sides, and an ancient bronze door appeared before Otto's eyes.

Otto's heart began to race.

He carefully placed the still-spinning gargoyle statue on the ground, then walked to the bronze gate.

This bronze gate is about two meters high and one meter wide, and its surface is covered with green rust, indicating that it has been around for many years.

There was no trace of a keyhole on the gate, only a strange totem carved in the very center.

It was a burning skull.

The skull was enveloped in eerie blue flames, the lines of which were fluid and strange, as if they were constantly pulsating and burning.

Although the dark eye sockets were embossed, for some reason, Otto always felt that as long as he got close, the flames would materialize and burst out of the eye sockets, completely engulfing him!

A chilling, oppressive aura, thick with the scent of death, emanated from the bronze gate, causing Otto to shiver involuntarily.

"It seems Romeo didn't have time to clean up his past arrangements."

Otto breathed a sigh of relief, suppressing his unease.

"Magic-mimicking demonic ape, go!"

Now, Otto has completely decided to hand over the analysis to the Magic Phantom Ape.

"I'm doing this all for your own good!"

Otto realized that he had only asked the Magic-like Ape to do the work to prevent it from getting beaten up again, and the Magic-like Ape should be thanking him!

The Magical Ape has expressed its dissatisfaction with you, believing you are no different from those unscrupulous capitalists!

The Moonlit Spirit Hound beat up the Magic-Imitation Demon Ape.

[The Magic-Imitation Demon Ape began its analysis.]

Time passed by, second by second.

Otto ignored the Magic Ape's frustration, and while his animal friends were analyzing the bronze gate, he also took the opportunity to look through the other rooms in the tailor shop.

Juliet's bedroom was right next to the living room. It wasn't very big, and it contained two single beds, a wardrobe, and a dressing table.

The bedding on the bed was neatly folded, and some simple cosmetics and a comb were placed on the dressing table.

Juliet's clothes were hanging in the closet, along with several pieces of clothing that were clearly men's.

On the table was a framed photograph of Juliet and Romeo.

Juliet is smiling brightly in the photo, nestled in Romeo's arms.

Romeo looked at the camera expressionlessly, his eyes devoid of any warmth.

Otto thought that, although Juliet saw the two beds as Romeo's way of taking responsibility for her and not wanting to live with her before marriage, Otto believed that Romeo was not doing so.

However, judging from the current situation, it is probably Romeo's way of doing this in order to ensure the purity of the subject matter of Juliet.
