"Uh... go ahead."
"There's a mural at the Stargazing Platform. According to information from the Authorities, it's the original painting of The Starry Night, created by Vincent van Gogh."
"There should be a 'coordinate' hidden in The Starry Night."
"You mean that 'coordinate'...?!" Lin Yi's pupils contracted slightly. He remembered Lao Mo telling him something similar.
The first of the Apostles to stabilize his Layer Sight had observed the Layer fluctuations during a Layer Leap and connected them to the mystery within The Starry Night.
Later, after prolonged exploration of Layer Leaps and heated discussions, a group of Apostles had reached the conclusion that [The Starry Night was very likely a coordinate].
A coordinate that could only be found during a Layer Leap, corresponding to endless mysteries and Transcendence!
The words Lao Mo had used to explain it back then surfaced in Lin Yi's mind:
["The Apostles suspect that Van Gogh didn't 'leave something at the coordinate,' but rather 'used this coordinate to locate something.' The Apostles firmly believe it might be the coordinate of where 'It' is, or perhaps the location of the Root within the Great Sea."]
Hearing Tian Bufan's words now, Lin Yi couldn't help connecting the two. He blurted out, "Are you saying... that coordinate corresponds to the location of the Principal’s Office?!"
