Reiner's first thought was the souls of those fallen mages, if their fall was not simply death, but a quantization similar to Phyllis, then these powerful legendary mages would be able to maintain their existence through self-observation, but they could not be detected by various detection devices, and due to their energy maintenance, these legendary mages could not travel too far.

But soon, Reiner realized another problem, first of all, the legendary mages of the ancient magic empire were not much stronger than Lord Braggs and others, and even due to the change in the way magic was studied, modern mages such as Lord Braggs received more feedback from the world, and their strength should be stronger than that of ancient mages.

Therefore, if the legendary mage really became a quantum ghost after falling, they should not interfere with magic more than they did in their lifetime, let alone create such a dead realm.

Then, it can only be something other than these mages.

Reiner walked forward, toward the twisted tower.

He thought of macro electronics, he thought of macro world.

Perhaps there was really a macro-world existence that noticed the traces of the fall of the legendary mage and continued to observe it, which led to the creation of the Dead Realm.

In Reiner's mind, the huge pit resembled a petri dish of bacteria, and the dead domain was the sterile area caused by the death of a certain bacteria, and in the macro world, a researcher in a white lab coat was using a microscope to observe the petri dish from time to time.

Everything in this world was nothing more than a tiny speck of dust to the researcher, but even so, his presence affected Reiner.

Shaking his head, Reiner dispelled the thought, although it was a macrocosm and a microcosm, but admitting such a thing was tantamount to acknowledging the existence of so-called "gods", Reiner did not want to extend the problem to theology, he wanted to solve it within the scope of his current understanding.

Having lost his magic, Reiner could feel everything around him deeply, the cold wind blowing across his cheeks and picking up the corners of his clothes.

The air smelled of snow and ice, the lung-freezing winds of the Far North.

Reiner tugged at his clothes, he had been prepared for it, and put on a thick coat to keep him out of the cold.

Halleyson was not surprised, perhaps the alchemy dolls were much more tolerant of cold and heat than humans.

With nothing but the howling north wind, Reiner easily made his way to the bottom of the tower, only to realize that it was much bigger than he had imagined.

At the edge of the pit, Reiner thought that the twisted mage tower was only three or four floors, but when he actually came to the bottom of the tower, Reiner noticed that the tower should actually have ten floors, and the area was not small.

"Halleyson, is this tower that big you saw before?"

Reiner didn't let go of this unnatural point and asked.

"No, according to Halleyson's calculations, the height of this mage tower has increased tenfold as we approached."

Halleyson replied calmly, confirming Reiner's suspicions.

"Sure enough, it's not a simple visual deviation."

Reiner picked up his pen and drew a simple diagram in his notebook with the location of the pit and the mage's tower, and after doing a simple calculation, he realized that there was something wrong with it.

To be precise, the height of the Mage Tower seen from the edge of the pit is not normal, and if the height is calculated by actual and visual measurements, the Mage Tower should be at least three times farther from the edge of the pit than it is now.

If it was in the past, Reiner might have thought it was some special kind of illusion magic, but in the Dead Realm, no magic can work, and if Reiner calculates that the distance between the Mage Tower and the edge of the pit is longer, it means that the distance between them is actually that long.

"Space-time warp?"

Reiner soon had a new idea.

If there is actually a strong space-time distortion in the dead domain, then the visual bias caused by the deflection of light can be explained.

Thinking of this, Reiner couldn't help but recall the time and distance he had traveled before, and after careful calculation, he found that he had indeed walked more distance than he had originally expected.

Due to the constant scenery around him, and the fact that Reiner was thinking about the secrets of the Dead Realm, he didn't notice how long he had walked when he walked over, but now, if he thought about it, he realized that he had walked a long distance.

"Is space-time distorted because there are massive objects here?"

Reiner thought that if the mage tower was a massive object that distorted the surrounding time and space, then Reiner's perception of time should also slow down, and to be precise, he would not be able to calculate the distance of the mage tower with his current knowledge.

"It's just that the space is simply distorted?"

Reiner looked back and saw that the edge of the pit was still visible, but in his mind, the flat path had twisted into a deep labyrinth.

"Looks like the answer can only be found in the Mage's Tower."

Reiner said that the entrance to the mage tower was empty, and there were no restrictions, and perhaps the traps of the legendary mages of the past were enough to hold back an entire army, but in the Dead Realm, even the most ingenious mechanisms were useless.

He walked into the hall, everything here was distorted, but the distortion did not destroy the original things in the mage tower, whether it was the tables, chairs, bookshelves, vases, all presented a chaotic and distorted state, but it formed a strange sense of harmony with the surroundings.

It was as if the whole space had been distorted, and these strange things didn't seem strange.

Only Reiner and Halleyson, out of place in this place.

"There's something strange about the scene here."

Reiner reached out and touched the vase on the table, which had been tilted to more than ninety degrees, but the vase did not fall off as if it were glued to the table.

He gently picked up the vase, which seemed to be half melted, and the moment the bottle left the table, he felt a subtle change in gravity, and the vase, which seemed to be free from gravity, suddenly gained weight and became extremely heavy.

Reiner put the vase back on the table, and the moment it touched it, it became light again, and it was firmly attached to the surface of the wooden table.

"It's weird."

Reiner frowned, continued on, experimenting with moving a few more things, and found that all of the objects remained in an eerie distorted state that would disappear as they left the contact surface, only to return as they returned to their original positions.

Ten floors in a row, Reiner found that the entire tower was like this, but did not find the secret that Lord Hohenheim had said.

As he stared at the original vase, pondering for a long time, a flash of inspiration crossed Reiner's mind.
