Franz Sith and Freya quickly followed suit.
After walking for a while, the three stopped in front of a door.
The door was engraved with concentric magical arrays, emanating a strong energy aura.
Freya took a glance and immediately recognized that these layered magical arrays belonged to the Sealing Array type, and it seemed that the door was also made from a material designed to block substances.
Despite this, she could still clearly sense the active fluctuations of negative Energy Particles coming from behind the door.
With a 'click,' the door was opened by the young man, and a faint chill emanated from within.
In the dimly lit empty room, a black stone pillar stood tall. Atop the pillar was a fist-sized spherical metal object, from which intense Negative Energy was radiating.
"Look, the energy fluctuations of this object have changed; it seems to have developed strong contamination characteristics. If it continues to release Negative Energy, it may not only affect the ongoing operations but also interfere with the completed Cultivation Area and Laboratory Area," the man reported clearly to Franz Sith.
Without responding to him, Franz Sith turned to Freya beside him and quietly asked, "Have you made any discoveries?"
Looking at the motionless metal, Freya showed a thoughtful expression. She had already formed some ideas upon her first glance at the metal but needed further experimentation to confirm them.
"This metal can release intense Negative Energy and can change its properties over time. Based on these two clues, if this object is not The Eye of Bickridge, then it is likely the Blood Crystal Core. If it's The Eye of Bickridge, that's fine; however, if it's the Blood Crystal Core, it implies that there may have been some terrifying events in the depths of this secret realm. The Blood Crystal Core is merely a type of ordinary Negative Energy ore that forms into this special substance after absorbing a certain concentration of intense Grievance and blood. It inherently carries strong contamination properties and is one of the few unusable materials," Freya analyzed with a furrowed brow.
"How is it? Although it's not as good as Elgreen, it's still quite nice here, right?" Franc Sith said with a hint of pride.
"Yes, it's very nice," Freya nodded in agreement.
Although the Eye of Truth was still just getting started, she had seen many of its members along the way, all working together with a sense of unity. This attitude of belonging to their organization was essential anywhere.
In contrast, Elgreen Academy had a different atmosphere of competition, showcasing a distinct style of excellence.
As they continued on, the earlier buildings gradually faded into the distance, and the carriage once again traveled along a winding forest path.
After about half an hour, the carriage finally stopped in front of a massive Banyan Tree.
"This is the secret realm," Franc Sith said as he got out first, pointing at the Banyan Tree.
Freya followed him out and looked up at the lush, towering Banyan Tree, slightly puzzled.
"You built the secret realm inside the Banyan Tree?"
"Of course not. The Banyan Tree is just an entrance; the secret realm is deeper inside. Come with me," Franc Sith waved her over and quickly walked toward the Banyan Tree.
As he was about to touch the Banyan Tree, it seemed as if he had touched water, and he swiftly vanished into it.
Freya stood there in shock, watching Franc Sith disappear before her eyes. After a while, she slowly approached the Banyan Tree and reached out to gently touch it.
The surface of the Banyan Tree felt genuinely rough. An ant crawled up her finger and onto her hand, tickling her; it felt entirely real and not at all illusory.
"Freya, hurry up and come in! Run! Otherwise, you'll really bump into the tree!" Franc Sith's voice echoed from within the Banyan Tree as he noticed Freya hadn't come over.
"Oh, got it!" At his shout, Freya immediately withdrew her hand, took a few steps back, and then ran towards the Banyan Tree.
'Pop...'
A faint sound of bubbles bursting made Freya feel as if her entire body had passed through a sticky door. Her vision suddenly dimmed and then quickly brightened again.
It was as if she had suddenly found herself in a garden filled with grass and flowers. In front of her stood a delicate white fountain, from which clear water was gushing. A path made of black stone slabs wound through the garden, leading to a green iron gate at the end.
Florn Sith was waiting for her in front of the iron gate.
"This is the Cultivation Area, specifically designed for growing some Magical Plants. The thing we discovered is in another room," Florn Sith said, noticing Freya's curious gaze at the surroundings of the secret realm.
Hearing Florn Sith's call, Freya finally withdrew her gaze and walked along the stone path towards the iron gate.
After passing through the garden and two different rooms, she finally saw some busy figures coming and going.
Large circular magic circles and stone pillar-like operating tables came into view. Shimmering Energy Particles danced in the air, seemingly expanding the space.
A young man dressed in a black Robe hurriedly approached Florn Sith and Freya upon seeing them, speaking urgently.
"Professor Buckland. That thing has shown new activity since you left; its inherent energy field seems to be eroding the energy array. Our current work on opening up is also being affected."
"What? Didn't you use energy-insulating materials to block it?" Florn Sith frowned upon hearing the young man's report.
"We did set up barriers, but... sigh, you should go take a look yourself," the young man said as he turned and walked towards an entrance to one of the rooms.
She had only seen these two things in the encyclopedia of mysterious substances in the academy's Basic Knowledge course, and she couldn't be sure if they were exactly what she thought.
"Do you have any raw liquid that is better than Rohua? I want to conduct an experiment," Freya said.
"We don't have the raw liquid, but would diluted versions work?" The young man understood from Freya's analysis that this seemingly small girl was the assistant brought by Fran Sith from outside.
"Although the effect might be somewhat reduced, it will work," Freya nodded.
"I'll go get it!" After receiving confirmation, the young man turned and left, leaving Fran Sith and Freya behind.
Watching the young man leave, Freya slightly extended her hand, and a wisp of Purple Flame appeared at her fingertips with a soft sound. She tilted her head and glanced at Fran Sith beside her.
"Is it alright if I use a spell here?"
"Of course, it's fine." Fran Sith smiled as he took a step back, knowing she was about to conduct some kind of experiment.
Hearing his response, Freya gently flicked her finger, and the Purple Flame slowly drifted toward the Metal Sphere. (To be continued)
