Chapter 457: The First Arrival of the Temple and the Mysterious Trial
Lin Yu led the fleet onward through space. As they approached the depths of the galaxy cluster, the surrounding light grew increasingly dim, with only the warships' lights flickering in the darkness. Cosmic dust, like a thick fog, permeated every corner, adding considerable difficulty to their journey.
"Maintain proper spacing between the fleets and be careful of the impact of cosmic dust on the equipment," Lin Yu reminded his team members via the communication channel. The warships advanced slowly and cautiously through the dust, like travelers groping in the dark.
After a long voyage, the outline of a colossal building gradually emerged from the darkness. This was the ancient temple the Watchers had spoken of, suspended in space, exuding a mysterious and solemn aura. The temple's outer walls were constructed of a strange metal, shimmering with a cold light in the dim glow, and were covered with intricate patterns, as if telling ancient stories.
"We've finally arrived," Lin Yu said softly, his eyes flashing with anticipation and wariness. The fleet slowly approached the temple and stopped at a safe distance. Lin Yu led an elite squad in small landing craft and flew towards the temple.
As the landing craft touched down on the temple platform, an ancient and mysterious aura emanated from it. The team members cautiously disembarked, weapons gripped tightly, and warily surveyed their surroundings. The temple doors were tightly shut, a large symbol etched upon them emitting a faint glow.
“This symbol seems somewhat similar to what we saw in the ruins before,” Ellie said, observing carefully. Lin Yu nodded and stepped forward, trying to find a way to open the door. The moment his hand touched the door, it suddenly emitted a strong light, enveloping everyone.
When the light faded, the group found themselves in a vast circular space. Strange lights shimmered on the surrounding walls, and countless symbols and patterns flowed across them, as if revealing the mysteries of the universe.
"Welcome to the temple, brave explorers." A clear voice echoed through the space. "To unlock the secrets of this place, you must pass three trials."
As soon as he finished speaking, a stone platform slowly rose from the ground in front of him, upon which rested a crystal ball emitting a blue light. A ring of energy lines surrounded the crystal ball, constantly flashing and changing.
"This is the first test: solving the energy puzzle of the crystal ball," the voice continued. "Only by solving the puzzle within the allotted time can you advance to the next level."
Lin Yu and his teammates quickly surrounded the crystal ball. Ellie took out her equipment and began analyzing its energy fluctuations. "The energy circuitry of this crystal ball is extremely complex and constantly changing," Ellie said, frowning.
Time ticked by, and everyone fell into deep thought. Suddenly, Lin Yu noticed a connection between the energy lines on the crystal ball and the astrological puzzles they had solved in the ruins. He quickly shared this discovery with Ellie.
“Yes, perhaps we can use the same method as before to solve this puzzle.” Ellie’s eyes lit up, and she quickly adjusted the equipment parameters. Working together, they analyzed and adjusted the energy circuit of the crystal ball, following the approach used in the astrological puzzle.
As the last energy line was successfully connected, the crystal ball emitted a clear ringing sound and shone brightly. Then, the wall in front of it slowly opened, revealing a passage leading deeper into the space.
"We did it!" the team cheered. Lin Yu looked into the passage, but his heart remained uneasy. He knew this was only the first test; even greater challenges lay ahead. They continued along the passage, the walls shimmering with strange lights, as if foreshadowing the unknown challenges to come. What would the second test be in this mysterious temple? Could they successfully pass it and uncover the secrets hidden deep within?
