“Trapezoid…!!!”

The adolescent lady was no idiot. Listening to this clarification and taking one other have a look at the room format, she all of the sudden understood.

Her imaginative and prescient has been deceived!

The room was a single shade of concrete, and on this colour scheme, lengthy and brief strains have been almost definitely to be misjudged by the bare eye.

And probably the most essential level was, this was room 2013!

Below regular circumstances, room 2012 subsequent door, the place the member of the Fallen Witch Sect resided, was surrounded by rooms that have been subjected to psychological contamination.

Nobody would wander round this space.

Even when somebody handed by, their psychological energy could be disrupted, thereby ignoring such intricate particulars.

Visible deception plus psychological disruption, this additionally results in the refined variations within the distance from the iron door being missed.

Distinction in door hole…this was solely new data that even probably the most detailed intelligence from the data service provider had by no means recorded.

What a intelligent design!

The lady with the mechanical arm thought all the pieces over and turned her gaze to the person who appeared so weak that she may kill him with an informal swat, her face crammed with disbelief. Regardless of such interference, he really sensed the anomaly?

This was already past what meticulousness may clarify.

“…”

After Leonard Churchill completed talking, his expression remained unchanged, not feeling that there was something noteworthy about it.

Actually, he had found this difficulty way back, however didn’t wish to make a fuss.

Furthermore, he didn’t belief this non permanent teammate sufficient on the time and wished to outlive till the third day, so he didn’t say a lot.

However now it’s completely different.

…

Actually, other than what was mentioned, there have been many particulars that Leonard didn’t clarify.

The development of this bunker is straightforward, a “ten” formed constructing, every flooring with hundred rooms, and there is just one corroded elevator between the higher and decrease flooring.

This design is inherently problematic.

Initially, the aim of this bunker is in its title. The Irregular Creature Shelter 407 is clearly some form of analysis bunker.

However does a lab solely have locations to restrict monsters?

A traditional analysis institute construction would in all probability be simply analysed by anybody to determine the positions of different rooms, in order that’s why they made this deceptive parallel construction.

In case you assume alongside these strains and examine the room construction one after the other, you can too discover issues.

In fact, the prerequisite is to not be interfered by the irregular psychic area on the second flooring.

Leonard himself has an unusually sharp observational means in the case of the setting, so he rapidly noticed the issue.

He then reversed the reasoning to determine the spatial design points.

Since he’s sure that it is a “clearance, reward” kind of duplication, then probably the most fascinating half for Leonard is just not the decoding.

However slightly… deducing the motives of the designer for designing this degree.

…

The lady with the mechanical arm had fully let go of her contempt for her non permanent teammate.

Time waits for nobody, she straight walked over to the wall that Leonard had marked.

An in depth “✘” signal had been marked on the door body.

The lady didn’t hesitate, raised her absolutely charged mechanical arm and took purpose on the mark. She didn’t overlook to remind, “You step again.”

Leonard naturally hid behind her.

Then with a “bang”, the shockwave virtually overturned them.

The 2 of them additionally heard the sound of bricks shattering contained in the wall.

“It actually broke open!”

The lady with the mechanical arm regarded on the massive gap in entrance of her, her eyes crammed with disbelief.

Despite the fact that she had simply been knowledgeable of the reasoning course of, really discovering a brand new route to clear the stage nonetheless made her really feel as if she have been dreaming.

That additionally meant that the way in which to clear the Irregular Creature Shelter 407 may actually be as that man mentioned, they’ve discovered a brand new approach to clear the stage!

Leonard regarded on the gap, exhibiting no pleasure, as a result of he was already certain.

He regarded on the pitch-black gap and confirmed a considerate look.

Busting the wall was straightforward, however this doesn’t imply that triggering the hidden plot could be easier.

Quite the opposite, he felt that the designer was a lot assured of their subsequent designs, therefore they didn’t do a lot with the wall.

Earlier than he may assume extra, the mud from the shattered wall hadn’t dispersed but, the 2 of them concurrently noticed a brand new revelation: ‘Triggered hidden plot, exploration elevated by +5%, extra settlement rewards obtained’

The lady with the mechanical arm fastidiously examined the outlet in entrance of her. It regarded like some form of laboratory space, with its creepy dim inexperienced gentle, constantly giving one the psychological suggestion of a monstrous ambush.

Nevertheless, Leonard appeared fully detached and gestured, “Let’s go, let’s go in and have a look.”

“…”

The lady with the mechanical arm glanced at him, however nonetheless stood in entrance of Leonard and took step one inside.

She was very clear about her place on this collaboration.

It was her main earlier than, however now it’s him.

…

This was a really messy lab, with traces of battle in every single place. There have been dried blood stains and some desiccated carcasses clad in lab coats on the ground. Unidentified scratches have been additionally discovered on the metallic devices.

A messy potion desk crammed with scattered check tubes, a surgical desk, monster specimens soaking in yellow-green liquid, and every kind of unusual and curious instruments…

All types of devices with a heavy steampunk-esque black tech type, a robust sense of magical thriller hitting their faces.

It was like an alchemy lab, but in addition like a organic lab.

The lady with the mechanical arm fastidiously walked in entrance, circled, and mentioned, “This ought to be the analysis lab of the 407 bunker.”

As anticipated, the analysis institute couldn’t simply be a spot to imprison monsters.

Leonard took a go searching and nodded, “Sure. Let’s discover some helpful clues.”

“…”

The lady with the mechanical arm glanced at him, puzzled as to why he appeared so sure, as if he was certain to seek out one thing.

There are gasoline lamps within the lab as effectively, the environment was gloomy and scary, however the visibility wasn’t too dangerous.

The lab was massive, and from the darkness got here occasional rustling noises, unknown what sort of monsters precipitated them.

Leonard Churchill scanned the format of the lab and marched straight in the direction of the row of rooms on his left.

The lady with the mechanical arm didn’t say a phrase, following him shut behind.

As Leonard made his means, every room served a special experimental perform. He would go inside some for a fast inspection, whereas merely glancing inside others from the doorway earlier than shifting on.

“What are you in search of?”

“Undecided but.”

“…”

The mechanical arm lady was a bit baffled. As a substitute of in search of an exit, he was trying to find clues he didn’t even know what they have been?

Nevertheless, Leonard quickly stopped in entrance of a room, stating decisively, “This ought to be it.”

Trying on the room, the mechanical arm lady seen that it was larger than the earlier ones, seeming like an government workplace.

Earlier than she may determine why he stopped right here, Leonard had already gone inside and was rummaging by recordsdata. He rapidly found a secure within the nook.

A secure?

Clearly a key plot merchandise.

Earlier than the mechanical arm lady may marvel at his certainty that one thing could be positioned right here, she noticed Leonard take out some twisted items of iron, press his ear to the secure, and start the method of breaking the lock.

This was a “common key”.

A interest Leonard had taken up in his spare time.

Initially, he made it to take care of the iron locks on the cabin doorways.

Though this world was crammed with extraordinary powers and magic playing cards, locks have been nonetheless mechanical. Regardless of how complicated, there was a approach to open them.

Luckily, to Leonard, this explicit secure didn’t appear complicated.

“…”

The mechanical arm lady watched in silence from a distance, not daring to interrupt.

His calm demeanor was fairly reassuring.

She was not in a rush to seek out an exit anymore.

The lab was silent, the one sound being the “clicking” noise of the lock mechanism because it turned.

Out of the blue, a crisp metallic sound echoed because the lock gave means.

Leonard smiled and quietly introduced, “It’s open.”

That rapidly?

The mechanical arm lady was barely stunned.

Taking a look at his skilled safe-cracking methods and remembering how he had beforehand recognized the problem with the wall, she couldn’t assist asking, “What’s your occupation precisely?”

“Career?”

After pausing for a second, Leonard replied, “I’m an actor.”

The mechanical arm lady interjected, “I meant your skilled sequence. Are you a God Thief?”

She had initially thought he was a psychic-type extraordinary, however that appeared to not be the case.

“…”

Leonard couldn’t reply.

Earlier than discovering himself right here, he was an actor.

An orphan adopted by a circus, he grew as much as be a clown performer.

His uncommon psychological skills have been by some means associated to his occupation.

Taking part in the clown, he has worn many various masks. Till sooner or later, he realized he now not knew which was the true him.

Or maybe, each was part of the true him.

Leonard distinctly felt as if there have been many variations of him in his thoughts, every taking part in a special position.

Though he appeared all the time cool and picked up, it wasn’t as a result of he was with out concern. As a substitute, his concern was suppressed by different roles reminiscent of “rationality”, “curiosity”, “pleasure”, “information looking for”, “perverted insanity”, and so forth.

This overload of psychological exercise made him a fast learner and gave him a cautious however energetic thoughts.

It additionally enabled him to grasp virtually all of the difficult circus stunts.

Equivalent to tightrope strolling, knife throwing, underwater escape, gunplay, card throwing…

“Lock choosing” was a vital ability for underwater escape.

Nevertheless, that psychological energy additionally tormented him.

He couldn’t expertise the emotional ups and downs of regular individuals, reminiscent of happiness.

This led him to have interaction in more and more dangerous and thrilling pursuits simply earlier than he discovered himself right here.

He sought sensory stimulation as a approach to specific his psychological frustrations.

…

His prepare of thought returning to the current, Leonard opened the secure and pulled out a stack of paperwork.

They have been messy, as if they’d been rummaged by and a few components have been lacking.

The mechanical arm lady additionally leaned in to see, and each of their consideration was drawn in.

Enlightenment produced a translation of what appeared like cuneiform and different unknown alphabets right into a readable format.

‘Empire Calendar, Could 3, 1141: Unsealing ‘S-rank Catastrophe Supply’, analysis starting.’

‘Analysis Institute suggestion: Present fusion mutation likelihood in experiment topics is 100%, with a threat of contaminated overflow diffusion. Really helpful categorization improve from ‘S-rank’ to ‘T-rank’, everlasting containment.’

‘…’

This was precisely what Leonard was trying to find,

Key proof!
