Chapter 19: White Lies

The hall is already like a chessboard, faintly, as if there are invisible lines crisscrossing and crisscrossing, and the node where the two lines intersect is a two-dimensional coordinate.

I adjusted slightly, standing at the node where I could look up to the changes in the third dimension, and I didn't dare to act rashly, for fear that if I deviated slightly, I would not be able to know Lin Shufan's current situation.

After staring at it for a long time, I realized that no matter how I stood on tiptoe, crouched, or fine-tuned my perspective, I couldn't see the image on the ceiling.

A golden light, hazy, occasionally swaying a faint gray... It is rendered like an ancient ink painting.

I was puzzled and asked myself, "Why is it different from the virtual images you see in other rooms..."

Suddenly, the golden light that greeted the eye gradually condensed, and moved towards the brightest place in the center, as if by magic, with the golden light as the center, and a gray halo faded around it.

My heart trembled involuntarily... Although I can't get a complete three-dimensional image from it, I understand that this golden light and gray light symbolize Lin Shufan and the evil power respectively, and such an obvious encirclement is afraid that Lin Shufan has fallen into a crisis.

"Trapped Beast Fight?" At this moment, this is the only way to make the situation clear.

Seeing the golden aperture shrink and shrink, and the gray taking up almost the entire plane, I almost went crazy... shouted in the direction above his head: "Lin Shufan! ”

There was no response.

I suddenly stopped shouting, realized something, looked around, and raised my eyes to look overhead, "Lin Shufan!" ”

"Lin Shufan—"

I shouted twice overhead and around me, and got two completely different results.

The sound is like a stone sinking into the sea, and there is no momentum of sound waves echoing in space;

A sound was as expected, and the aftermath echoed in the semi-enclosed lobby for three and a half sounds.

"Calm down... Think about the reason for this! I took a deep breath and told myself this over and over again.

On my back, I slowly closed my eyes, concentrating and emptying myself as I did when I was channeling in a mirror... Only this time, because of the lack of a psychic object, I could only keep my thinking ability smooth.

Unique coordinates, images of gold dust overhead, two very different sound results...

Thinking of the ultimate space...

Naturally, I combined the strangeness I encountered now with the concept of space.

Soon, a rough spatial picture emerged:

A strange building, with only one floor lobby, second and third floors... Gradually, in my mind, the three-story space was cut and stretched.

In view of the strange situation I encountered, I couldn't help but cut the first floor, the second and third floors into two parts, and then the three factors that determine why the three-dimensional space is three-dimensional—length, width, and height—were extremely elevated to the two parts after the cut.

As a result, the lobby on the first floor was only given two dimensions of length and width, and the space above the first floor was only left with a "high" dimension.

One dimension is a point, two dimensions is a plane, and when all the ideas are completed, I am amazed at an incredible spectacle - a space that has been maximized:

In my mind, it seems that there is a blank piece of paper lying flat, and from the white paper, there are densely suspended stars... I saw a flat self on the white paper, and I also saw the floating stars, which were the one-dimensional projection images on the second and third floors!

When I opened my eyes again, everything was clear.

"If you want to see the other world I'm in now, you have to add dimensions yourself!"

I was delighted by the thought, and I couldn't help but think of the channeling I performed on each mirror in 0302 to find the source that determined the existence and disappearance of the mirrors.

A bold and seemingly impossible idea came to mind, "This time, I still need the talent of psychics, but the object of psychic is no longer an entity like a mirror, but... Ethereal dimensions! ”

When I decided to do this, I seemed to hear the words of the female mirror corpse "Ya" - "The highest level psychic, 澋..."

"Who am I?" Again, I asked, only this time, I no longer felt like I was suffering from schizophrenia, but instead felt like there was a path stretching in front of me... Faintly, the words "a long way to go" made me firm in my belief in living.

Psychic begins...

I tried my best to bring the lobby in front of me into my consciousness, slowly close my eyes, and then move it from my conscious to my subconscious... An ethereal and intangible psychic object instantly became a two-dimensional body with "length and width".

In the same way, the eyes are opened, the back is up, and the eyes are closed, and the ceiling, which symbolizes the "high" in the three dimensions, has also become a tangible psychic object, incorporated into the subconscious.

When the two prepared psychic objects jumped to the level of consciousness in the subconscious, suddenly, the clear stream carrying the "six spirit words" seemed to turn into a tunnel, and in an instant, they merged into one place.

Tremendous power seems to be gathered in the eyes... I opened my eyes suddenly, only to see that the gold ash that had just been smeared with ink had turned into a virtual image with a body and a body.

However, the virtual image still floated on the ceiling, after all, what I saw now was not the original appearance of the space, and I knew that it was just a three-dimensional pattern stitched together by spiritism, but it was enough.

As previously reasoned, gold and ash represent the one-dimensional Lin Shufan and the danger... It's just that what I never expected was that this danger was actually the snake-faced monster with a long letter...

Judging from some of the recovered memories, this "creature" is similar to the "watchdog" in the Mirror Corpse captivity in the Atlas, but whenever a psychic is separated from the six spirits in the corpse coffin, the Mirror Corpse will send them to guard it.

I saw that countless snake-faced monsters surrounded Lin Shufan... A golden light swelled and turned to ashes...

I breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the crisis had been resolved... But I vaguely felt that there was an undercurrent surging in other directions on the ceiling, and then the snake-faced monster appeared in my field of vision again...

Golden light... Ashes...

After repeating this several times, Lin Shufan was already exhausted. I looked up at it all and seemed to read the puzzled look on her face. At this moment, I realized that from her perspective, it was impossible to discover that this never-ending snake-faced monster came from a different mirror space.

And I, because of my use of spiritism, have opened up an additional dimensional perspective, but I can see the details.

"What should I do?" Seeing that Lin Shufan could no longer manipulate his spiritual power to protect himself, I was anxious.

Taking advantage of Lin's negligence, the dense Xinzi had firmly wrapped her wrists, and the snake-faced monsters on both sides worked together, and suddenly, Lin's hands were stretched out and straightened, without the slightest resistance.

At the same time, the other snake-faced monsters shot out Nobuko in one direction, and I couldn't see what they were doing due to the limited viewing angle.

But I vaguely felt that Lin was in a catastrophe.

The spit letter was slowly withdrawn, and I saw Lin's frightened and lost eyes.

"What could it be?" Following Lin's gaze, I stared at the edge of the horizon...

Soon... A mirror appeared.

I clenched my fists in shock, "This mirror... I've seen it! ”

Not the mirrors that merged, nor those in the mirror array ... It's the side that Chen Yue once put into my bedroom!

"The coffin is the bed, the bed is the coffin, the soul is stripped away, and the beast is trapped in six directions."

Suddenly, it was this voice echoing in my head, and I immediately understood what Lin Shufan said about "dead space".

"It turns out that one mirror and one world, mirror and mirror, all the spaces here have long been connected, and the so-called thirteenth space is actually the 'Fengxia City' that has trapped me for three years!"

The coffin slowly floated to Lin's side, and more and more letters held her up.

"No!" Seeing that Lin Shufan was about to be lifted into the coffin, I trembled.

Inexplicably, like an enraged beast, a long-sealed power suddenly awakened.

Looking at Lin Shufan, who was dying, somehow, he couldn't be controlled by his own consciousness, everything happened so naturally-

Raise your hands, point together, and gather your spirits, "The protection of the moon - shines in the six directions!" ”

The aura that walks around the body seems to be a fusion of two different powers, and in the words of the clear stream, darkness and light burst out together, and before I can figure out the situation, the spiritual power in my eyes has already been formed.

I saw that the ceiling, from the edge of the lobby to the direction where I was standing, was instantly lit up with light, and countless mirror spaces were quickly filled...

The golden light of the sun...

Like the silver light of the moon...

I can see clearly that in the space where Lin Shufan is, he breaks through the edge of the mirror from the left and right.

The light above my head was shining, and it was hard for me to see what was going on... When the light weakened, I saw that in the golden light, the mottled ashes of the snake-faced monster loomed, and wisps of silver light covered Lin Shufan's body... As she had done when she had protected me, she was haunted by warmth.

I smiled happily...

I also saw Lin Shufan smiling at the edge that was broken by spiritual power...

I think she knows where this spiritual power comes from.

When everything settled, I heard countless sounds of glass cracking, coming from different spaces, but it seemed to shatter at the same time.

Suddenly, the space in front of me seemed to twist, and I don't know if it was an illusion or a new round of changes, but I felt that the ceiling above my head was gradually raised... A three-dimensional lobby is becoming more and more apparent.

"Only because I am in this mountain..."At this moment, I realized that the reason why I looked at the two-dimensional lobby before was no different, it turned out that observing the two-dimensional space from a two-dimensional perspective produced a visual sense that the human brain still has the habit of seeing.

I clenched my fists... Repeated: "Just because you are in this mountain!" Isn't that who I am now? It seems that he wants to retrieve all his memories and recognize the whole picture of the other world... It's bound to jump out of this 'mountain'... Or even a lot of seats! ”

When things get back to normal...

Slowly... There was red moonlight flowing in from outside the open door of the lobby...

Also falling was the note that floated into the void, as well as the four spirit bodies that had returned to their places.

"What about Lin Shufan?" When I was completely in harmony with the four spirits, I realized... Everything that was swallowed up by this treacherous building before came back to me.

Only Lin Shufan is missing.

It suddenly occurred to me that I had never seen that mirror in the lobby of the Thirteenth Space all along!

"Why!"

Lin Shufan deceived me, a white lie... Just to protect a so-called, highest-ranking psychic?

"Don't... I don't want to lose you. ”

Running towards the third floor... The red moon is as enchanting as it was when it came.
