Chapter 1245 - 369: First Exploration of the Void Realm, Idyllic Wonders! (Part 2)
The experienced assistant let out a sigh.
"I hope he's prepared. The 440th Void Realm is no joke. The previous master responsible here, Master Keynes, not only failed to make any progress but also fell victim to backlash from the Void Realm due to a mishap during an experiment. He hasn't woken up yet…"
These words felt like a cold shower, poured over the heads of the zealous young lads, calming their restless hearts somewhat.
The heavy conversation was not only overheard by the surrounding assistants, but the small dragon Taufu, draped over Luo Yan's shoulders like a scarf, also heard it clearly, and she secretly snickered.
The little rascal never missed a chance to gloat, making Luo Yan reflect on whether he had done something not quite right.
Though meant as a punishment, it seemed to have delighted this creature.
Beside Luo Yan, Sarah was entirely different.
With her sharp hearing, she took in all the discussions, and a slight concern flashed across her cold face. She couldn't help but glance at Lord Demon King beside her.
Walking towards the tower, Luo Yan was unconcerned, merely smiling faintly, and gave Sarah a reassuring look.
'I'm aware of what I'm doing.'
The resources allocated to him by the Academic State were no more than two possibilities: either simple and insignificant, or expensive yet a tough nut to crack.
If only Professor Hector was involved, the former scenario would be most likely, as Hector himself couldn't access any particularly good resources.
However, according to Kegi, not only Professor Hector was advocating for him at the Council of Sages; an additional professor named Arist was also pushing this matter forward, and this professor was a Diamond Level Mage, said to be just a step away from being a Sage.
Clearly, this "Quasi-Sage" professor had already determined that he absolutely couldn't unravel the mysteries of the 440th Void Realm, and had already regarded this Void Realm as his possession.
With this thought, Luo Yan's lips curled into a meaningful smile, as he lightly murmured to himself.
"Let's see what this Void Realm is all about."
…
At the center of the Colin Tower, in a spacious and solemn circular hall, complex runes spread across the entire floor like a web, forming a huge Magic Array along with the stone pillars supporting the building's main structure.
Assistants cloaked in robes meticulously placed glowing Magic Crystals at the nodes of the Magic Array.
As the final Demon Crystal was placed, a bluish light instantly swept across the floor along the lines traced by the Magic Crystal Powder, climbing up the majestic stone pillars and reaching the tip of the Mage Tower!
Standing at the edge of the Magic Array, Luo Yan eagerly observed everything happening before him, recording it in the Crystal Ball he held.
Just then, a piercing hum echoed from the tower top.
The entire space seemed frozen, coated with a bluish filter, caught in an eerie stasis.
Sarah uneasily glanced around, her right hand on her sword hilt, not understanding what had transpired.
The immense wave of Magic Power made her slightly uneasy…
Taufu, lingering between wakefulness and sleep, was now completely awake, her eyes wide open.
"This… how can this be?!"
"What do you mean, how can it be?" Luo Yan asked casually, noticing Taufu's shock.
"Subspace… It's actually Subspace!" Taufu muttered, a look of disbelief on her face. "You've read my log, haven't you? You know how I came to this world, right!? Unbelievable, a mere bunch of hairless monkey natives are actually…"
Luo Yan found it amusing as he looked at Taufu puzzling over inexplicable matters.
"Did you forget what you did on the Gana Continent?"
"That's different! I used the help of the Lizardman to complete the Barrier, and… that wasn't truly Subspace, it only used Subspace's properties to separate the Gana Continent from the Main World." Taufu stubbornly argued, her tail tensed and swaying uneasily on Luo Yan's back.
"Is that so? But in my view, your achievements are even more remarkable." Luo Yan casually replied, reaching out his hand.
An astonishing scene unfolded.
The air flowing before him seemed to transform into a viscous gel, enveloping the entire interior of the Mage Tower space.
Even more astonishing to Luo Yan was that despite the air turning into a viscous gel, it didn't seem to impede the breathing of those within?
This puzzling question didn't confound him for long. As time passed, Luo Yan quickly understood the reason.
It wasn't the air that had transformed into viscous gel; rather, the entire space, along with everything within it, had changed into this viscous and pliable existence.
The conventional laws of physics in the classical universe seemed to fail within this confined space of the Mage Tower…
Perched on his shoulder, Taufu swallowed and quietly voiced her astonishment.
"…This is incredible."
Having finally completed the array setup, Miller, the leader of the Void Realm research team, approached Luo Yan respectfully and spoke.
"Master, everything is ready and can be initiated at any time."
Luo Yan nodded, suppressing his inner excitement, and calmly instructed.
"Begin."
"Yes."
Responding politely, Miller took the Magic Scroll bestowed by Prince Colin from his hand, stepped into the Magic Array, and began chanting the spell.
