Underwater Kiss (2)
Soon, Ye Lang no longer needed to think about how to try, because he saw a rule: the colorful floor tiles actually represented a number.
The rule is to establish a specific relationship between these numbers, which is similar to the Nine Palaces Diagram, but it is also completely different from the Nine Palaces Diagram.
Like the Nine Palaces Diagram, the more layers there are, the more complicated and difficult it becomes to solve. Three layers would be easier, but this one has nine layers, making it extremely difficult.
"That's not difficult! Just tell me what number on the ground represents," Zhao Yarou said easily after hearing this.
"Huh?" Ye Lang was about to rack his brains himself when Zhao Yarou unexpectedly volunteered.
So Ye Lang simply announced the number, and two minutes later, Zhao Yarou hopped around and crossed over, while the stone door at the end of the passage, which had been closed, was now open.
That's a pervert! It only took two minutes. For anyone else, it would take at least several hours, and that would be for someone who's an expert in this field!
Looking at Zhao Yarou, Ye Lang felt that Zhao Yarou's current position was not accidental, nor was it just luck.
After Zhao Yarou jumped over, the color on the ground returned to normal, the mechanism disappeared, and then Ye Lang carried Li Yue over to enter the next one.
"Zhao Yarou ..." Ye Lang said.
"Hmph, don't tell me you're going to make me a spy again..." Zhao Yarou frowned, feeling that Ye Lang had nothing good to offer her.
Ye Lang shook his head and said, "No, I just wanted to warn you to be careful. The thing you touched is poisonous!"
"..." Zhao Yarou looked at her hands, which had begun to turn black. All she wanted to do now was to grab Ye Lang's hand.
"Damn it, what are you doing? You'll pass it on to me!" Ye Lang didn't have time to dodge, and Zhao Yarou succeeded.
"Who told you not to tell me? We'll die together!!"
"... Don't keep talking about death. This challenge is about curing this poison. There are many materials here. All we need to do is concoct an antidote for this poison!" Ye Lang said.
"I can do that too, it's easy! Tell me what the ingredients of this poison are..." Zhao Yarou said again.
"..." Ye Lang remained silent.
This woman seems to know everything. She also appears to be an alchemist, and not just a mediocre one.
First it was a test of math, now it's a test of potions, will it be Alchemy Array or something else next?
Ye Lang was right. The next few challenges were all related to alchemy, and the problems were extremely difficult. Ordinary alchemists would not be able to solve them, and even Royal Alchemist might not be able to.
Zhao Yarou's ability to fight her way through without any difficulty surprised Ye Lang greatly. He was now certain that Zhao Yarou's alchemy skills far surpassed those of the Royal Alchemist.
But it seems no one has heard of this. This Zhao Yarou is very secretive and may have other skills. It seems I underestimated her.
In fact, not only Ye Lang was unaware of this, but even those around Zhao Yarou were unaware of it. Zhao Yarou had been studying alchemy since childhood and possessed a very high level of skill. It could be said that if Ye Lang did not exist in this world, she would be the strongest alchemical genius.
The poison she used when she rebelled was one she prepared herself, the Magic Restriction Array was one she designed herself, and all those people were trained by her.
However, no one knew that she was the one who did these things; they all thought it was some alchemy master.
If the group of alchemists around Zhao Yarou knew that she possessed such powerful alchemy skills, their mouths would probably be agape.
The final challenge is a multiple-choice question: there are two doors, one on the left and one on the right, choose one to pass through.
"There are no hints at all, how am I supposed to choose?" Zhao Yarou saw two doors in front of her and didn't know which way to go. The previous ones all had hints, but this one had nothing and just asked her to choose one to go through.
"Then just pick one and go!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly.
"What if we choose the wrong one?" Zhao Yarou frowned.
"Zhao Yarou, let me teach you a lesson!" Ye Lang carried Li Yue and walked directly through the door on the left. Zhao Yarou thought for a moment, then followed Ye Lang through the door without stopping him.
As a result, the outside world opened up, and a stunning underground city appeared before the three of them. This was the underground ruins of the Tiangong Yue Clan.
No one could have imagined that such magnificent ruins would exist in these mountains, beneath these mountains. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Tiangong Yue Clan. The impact of the appearance of these ruins on the world is currently unpredictable.
However, the impact will certainly be significant!
Seeing this also proves one thing: Ye Lang and his two companions have succeeded!
"How did you know to go left? What lesson are you trying to teach me?" Zhao Yarou asked.
"There is actually only one answer to these two questions. Let me teach you properly. Alchemy requires constant exploration and verification. So, you must explore and verify the two paths in front of you. If you don't, you will always just stay in front of those two paths. But if you do, even if you take the wrong path, at least you will know which path you should take!" Ye Lang said calmly.
"I understand!" Zhao Yarou nodded. She understood the meaning of the multiple-choice question. Ye Lang had explained it very clearly.
"This city is very interesting. If I could, I would really like to stay here for a while," Ye Lang said, looking at the Ancient Ruins.
This Ancient Ruins contains many things that will be of great help to Ye Lang. However, Ye Lang cannot stay here for long, since this is the territory of the Xiangkong Empire, and this place will become the focus of research for the Soaring Sky Empire alchemists in the future.
"You can stay here if you like, I allow it!" Zhao Yarou said.
"I don't want to. I can stay here for a few days. This is a very rare site. You must protect it well and make sure no one damages anything here!" Ye Lang said.
"You don't need to tell me that. I treasure such a wonderful thing!" Zhao Yarou said with a smile. She was very happy. With this underground ruin, she no longer had to keep focusing on Ye Lang's alchemy.
The things here are enough for the Empire to study for a long time. Although she didn't see the specific things, the airships that were stationed there were excellent research subjects.
" In Ancient Era, the Tiangong Yue Clan, skilled in alchemy, perfected their craft, creating airships that could fly through the sky, submarines that could dive into the water, Magic Car that could race across land, and Alchemy Mech that could fight..."
