Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2529 Repeat
Well, it tastes really good.

Lord Sørendir was clearly somewhat surprised that the Rebirth Club was actually withdrawing.

Even after the ship had sailed far away, they continued to watch it go from afar.

Unfortunately, the figure who stirred up the entire Moorish situation had long since stopped paying attention to trivial matters and was selecting food in the ship's restaurant.

Such a slow-moving vessel is not worth taking if you are in a hurry.

The reason why Fu Qian still boarded the ship was simple: it was time for dinner.

The food here smelled pretty good when I came last time.

That's right, it's the surveillance outpost belonging to Gene.

After yet another storm, they surprisingly set off quickly.

Since that's the case, Fu Qian wouldn't mind taking a ride and having dinner along the way.

It wasn't even strictly freeloading or encroaching on public resources; he even dressed up as Gene while eating.

The latter even lived in a luxury room. Now that he's gone, won't the food be wasted?
As he stuffed another lamb chop into his mouth, Moore in the darkness had already vanished into a distant dot.

But the more it does this, the more it exudes the aura of a colossal being crouching and watching over others.

Researchers in the past witnessed such a scene, which inspired them to consider turning it into proof of homecoming.
……

Unfortunately, he could never return to his homeland.

The stars twinkled, the ashes churned, and not long afterward, Fu Qian stood quietly in the waves, surveying the once empty place.

It's a beautiful day; you can even see the moon hanging in the corner of the sky—and in the water.

The waves beneath our feet were not smooth, and their color was not even clear.

But deep within this desolate ashes, there was indeed a clear and transparent lake, unaffected by its surroundings, smooth as a mirror.

The starry sky and moon reflected in it are so clear that it is difficult to tell whether it is still water or just empty space like the sky above.

And these aren't even the main points.

Although there was nothing on the water's surface, there were still vague outlines reflected in the void, as if a building was hanging upside down there.

Upside-down Lake?

It seems like we've actually found it.

Faced with such a scene, a certain word came to mind perfectly naturally.

Is there really some kind of resonance?
The artificial eye in Fu Qian's eye socket slowly rotated once again under the touch of the tentacles.

But this wasn't the only eye that could see that amazing scene.

There is reason to believe that when I approached this thing, a certain resonance occurred, which led me to see a different scene than last time.

From the wise deceased to the Upside-Down Lake, it turns out that the dean's advice was indeed valuable.

The academy's exploration team also witnessed such a scene.
Feeling a sense of nostalgia, like the moon that once shone on the ancients, I didn't stand on ceremony and stepped into this perilous place.

Oh?
And just as they touched the edge of the lake, the wondrous sights continued to appear.

The boundless starry sky above and below seemed to move silently, slowly rotating around the water's surface.

In the blink of an eye, it became difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Of course, this is mainly to describe how realistic it is. In fact, it is not difficult to distinguish, since there are buildings in the starry sky below.

Along with the shifting of the stars and moon, there are also traces of human activity.

Not only did it gradually emerge from the water, but it even transformed directly into a physical entity.

They really built a research institution? Their determination to pursue knowledge is truly admirable.

Looking at the classically styled building, Fu Qian sighed. Although the fallen angel statue was missing, it still bore some resemblance to what he had seen in the Etched Wisdom.

But that's not the only point—this reversal seems familiar.

In an instant, the two starry skies had been switched, and the buildings stood tall and majestic.

Although Fu Qian didn't rush in, he was trying to catch that sense of familiarity—the forbidden area where Su Gao had become a demigod?

……

In a quest that ultimately rewards a "white ring," I encountered Su Gao, who was in trouble.

She had pursued the killer across thousands of miles to a forbidden area, where the side effects of the extraordinary items she possessed triggered a relapse of her old mental illness, leaving her on the verge of collapse.

However, at the warehouse's request, he prevented her from becoming a doll.

The weather was not only perfect at the time, but there was also a lake with water and reflections.

When I tried to comfort her in a relatively gentle way, the starry sky and its reflection underwent such a reversal, and I was amazed by the magical scene.

It's hard to believe it's just a coincidence... that place is actually related to Upside-Down Lake?
If that's the case, then Su Gao's demigod encounter is quite remarkable.

The reflection that flipped over was resonating with her in some way. If she hadn't stopped it, she would most likely have been unable to maintain her own will and would have ultimately become a tool for something.

Could that resonant power be related to the place before us? Or is it simply due to Su Gao's divine path?

It's a pity that he's gone back to Night Elf headquarters to report, so we can't explore together.

Amazed by the wonders of the world, Fu Qian lightly leaped and landed in front of the building that still looked intact.

……

It is indeed intact, looking brand new from the ground.

Standing before the gate, which wasn't even a speck of rust, and still not finding any distinctive emblems, Fu Qian couldn't stop using his imagination to empathize with the possible scenarios that might have unfolded.

Did the academy's exploration team also see this scene? And what were their thoughts?

So far, at least, no obvious traces of crystallization have been seen, leading one to wonder if they came from the same place back then.

squeak--

Thoughts didn't delay his actions; the next moment, Fu Qian had already reached out and pushed open the heavy door.

"Oh……"

Almost at the same time, a voice that seemed to indicate doubt followed.

I must say, after exploring so many places, it's rare to encounter such a positive response.

Fu Qian sighed inwardly, looking in the direction from which the sound came.

Oh?
What followed was an even more astonishing discovery.

Wearing a long robe and no hat, the person who made the sound was actually a person, and didn't even look very old.

"You came……"

Not only that, but when Fu Qian looked over, the other person's golden eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his tone was surprisingly familiar.

"I am coming."

How could Fu Qian be rude at this moment? He nodded naturally, but his gaze fell on something deeper behind the other person—a giant twelve-sided hourglass.

Is this really the same place I visited in the Etching Wisdom? And right in front of me is a living stargazer?
That look is undoubtedly very representative—

[Decrease 1 from sanity value]

As my thoughts raced, another voice rang in my ears.
