In an instant, Catherine felt like she was in a brightly lit palace.

Dressed in a splendid aristocratic costume, Hisuru took her by the hand and led her to dance in the hall.

But his fish head seemed out of place in the opulent setting.

Catherine wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to laugh because Wasuru was glaring at her with two fish's eyes.

The Fishur in front of him was not the dull projection, and Catherine was in this strange place, not daring to act rashly, but just dancing in His footsteps.

After jumping two laps, seeing that Fei Sulu had no intention of stopping, Catherine finally couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice: "Dear Fei Sulu, what are your instructions for coming to me?"

"Bossetoiffel, why are you?" Fishuru winked, "I didn't come to you, you came to me." ”

"That statue......" Catherine understood a little as it was going on, "oh, I saw a statue of you." ”

"There are many people who revere me, and there are many people who spy on me. "You came here to see me because you touched a sign left by a believer." ”

"I don't mean to offend, we're trapped in a secret room. Catherine quickly explained.

"I'm not interested in what happened to you, your fate has long been decided, and your path has been corrected. Fishuru yawned, "If you use that sign, I'll take it back." It's nothing, let's go back. ”

When Catherine heard this, her heart moved. Is the meaning of "nothing, let's go back" to be understood as, "if there is something, you can say it".

"Dear Hisura, I have a request, please show me the way forward. Catherine said tentatively.

"Huh? "I have already said that your path has been corrected and cannot be changed. ”

"Then please give me the appropriate help. It was fate that I was able to come here. ”

"You are not my confidant or follower, so why should you get my help?" Washuru let go of his hand, and the entire palace immediately collapsed and disappeared, and the surroundings became pitch black, "You don't even know why you are there. ”

"Then please tell me why. "Catherine remembers that in Screw Alley, the female general of the Elven Empire, Rain, had told her that it was no coincidence that Catherine would appear in Gear City or the Machine Rover. And the reason seems to have something to do with the truth of the world.

Floating in the directionless darkness, Hisuru became immensely large and distant. Catherine couldn't be sure where he was for a moment, but she could feel Him standing in front of her.

"The birth and dissolution of the world cannot be reversed, and there are those who try in vain to resist the arrangements of fate, and everything is in vain. ”

Before Catherine could understand the meaning of these words, she suddenly realized that she was still in a secret room. The statue of Hisulo in front of him turned into powder at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What did you just see?" Catherine asked, stunned, the Ice Bear, Abyss, and the Clouds.

Ice Bear Abyss and Cloud both shook their heads.

"As soon as you put your hand on it, the statue shatters. Ice Bear Abyss said.

All that remained was a pile of metal powder on the ground.

Catherine looked at the pile of powder, crouched down and swept away it, revealing a metal ring.

Yun also squatted down to help, and after the two of them cleaned up all the powder, a square secret door appeared on the ground.

Yun held the metal ring and lifted it hard, the secret door was unusually heavy, and it didn't move.

"I'll come. As soon as the Ice Bear Abyss grasped the metal ring, under his force, the secret door was lifted up little by little.

He lay in the stone under the secret door, and he connected a metal conduit to his body. There was a glow flickering through the metal conduit and flowing into his body.

"The stone is underneath. Catherine was the first to see him.

The Ice Bear Abyss let out a low roar, and finally opened the secret door completely.

"Get him out first. As soon as Yun saw the stone's appearance, he leaned over and lifted the stone out of the dark room with the ice bear abyss.

The metal conduits on the stone body were connected to the wall of the dark room, and many of the metal conduits were torn off in the process of coming up from the stage. The light from the metal conduit flowed out of it and fell to the ground. It was a drop of white liquid.

"Why are you here?" Shi seemed to be awakened, lying on the ground and looking at the three of them, "How did you find me?"

"We traced the traces you left behind and found here. Catherine said.

"Thank you for coming. Shi tried to get up from the ground, but tried twice without success.

"We have to get out of here. Shi gave up the action, "My friend has already left. When I found this, I fell into a trap. The person who set the trap should be coming over soon. ”

Catherine glanced at each other with the Ice Bear Abyss and Cloud.

Yun said: "There is a patrol from above, and it will definitely not work to go back the same way." ”

"There's a dark path to the outside. Stone pointed to the secret door and said, "Break down the walls inside." ”

The cloud leaned down and tapped on the wall of the darkroom where the metal conduit was extended, and a hollow sound came from there. She then slammed it hard, and the walls of the dark chamber cracked, and a liquid that glowed white flowed out of the broken walls.

"What the hell is this?" Yun asked.

"White gold, a liquid metal. Once injected into the body, your body will be metallized. Shi explained, "I have been injected with a lot of stuff in my body, and I can't move for the time being. When I find a safe place, I'll find a way to get them out of my body. ”

"I thought it was a legend. Yun reached out and picked up some platinum observations.

"Now is not the time for research. "Sprinkle the white gold on the ground, as evenly as possible." ”

If you are in the clouds, you will sprinkle white gold in the secret room.

Soon, the scattered platinum dots began to roll, each coming together to form larger droplets. The large droplets began to flow in one direction again, eventually gathering in a corner of the chamber.

"The dark road is over there, you can look for it. Shi said.

Catherine and Cloud walked to the corner, surveying the small space.

It is not difficult to judge that there are only two possibilities for platinum to gather here.

One is that this corner is lower than the rest of the world, and the other is that there is something that attracts platinum, or maybe both.

Catherine was the first to notice the anomaly, and the mass of platinum gathered in the corner was slowly shrinking. Indicates that there is a gap underneath the white gold, or a hole or something.

Catherine spoke her findings, and Yun reached into the white liquid and felt it for a while.

"There's a very small hole. She gestured with her little finger, "It feels like those catheters." ”

Catherine thought for a moment, then turned around and walked to the darkroom and pulled a metal conduit down.

She walked back to the corner and handed it to Yun and said, "Plug it in and try it." ”

Cloud insertion catheter.

Catherine sensed something, and looked up, and a small, inconspicuous bright spot appeared in the corner above.
