There are still green crystals in the elevator, and the functions of these crystals are marked with Monde characters next to them.

Wendy touched the closing crystal, and the door immediately closed behind them.

Then Wendy touched the falling spar again.

There was no response at the moment.

"Isn't it broken?" Wendy held her head in thought.

"Although I have studied the art of mechanism before, I am not proficient enough to answer your question." Zhongli looked around, trying to find a reason why it could not be activated.

"It's okay," Wendy smiled and opened Ziling's Qiankun bag, and pulled out the book on Fontaine Technology that she had stuffed in earlier. "With my understanding of Fengshen, I can learn and cultivate at the same time."

At this moment, Wendy completely understood Ziling's desire to put everything in it, because it was really convenient.

But just as he was opening the book to study it carefully, the elevator suddenly made a loud noise.

The sound was so loud that it made Wendy tremble. Then she raised her head and looked at Zhongli seriously: "I have an ominous feeling."

After saying that, he immediately stuffed the book back into his Qiankun bag.

Then, the elevator was suddenly caught off guard and began to fall rapidly.

Zhongli immediately put a shield on each of him and Wendy as protection.

Wendy also immediately gathered the wind element, intending to hold the elevator to slow down.

Fortunately, the wind caused by Fengshen was strong enough to successfully support the elevator, and then slowly descended.

"Fortunately, it's just the two of us. If Ziling comes, I'm afraid Hun'er will be scared to death." Wendy let out a long sigh of relief.

Soon, the wind carried the elevator down smoothly to the bottom.

Then, Wendy triggered the door-opening mechanism, and the door slowly opened.

What comes into view is indeed an underground space. This underground space is about the same size as the first floor of the tower, but it is divided into several rooms.

There are signs hanging on these rooms. The signs indicate the functions of the rooms. There is an infirmary and a kitchen. It looks like an underground fortress.

Just as they opened the kitchen door and entered, they suddenly saw many busy people who shouldn't have been there.

However, the two of them did not feel strange. They knew in their hearts that this person did not really exist at the moment.

It was just a thunderstorm that caused instability in the earth's veins, creating some illusions from the past.

I saw these people cooking with great interest and discussing together, their words full of imagination for a better life in the future.

But when the illusion disappeared, all that was left on the ground was a pile of bones.

Wendy was startled: "Did everyone die here?"

"I'm afraid so." Zhongli walked to the bones and knelt down to observe carefully. "There were no external injuries. He should have died due to other reasons."

After saying that, he stood up and said to Wendy who was standing aside: "Let's go and have a look elsewhere. Maybe the leyline will tell us the reason."

Wendy nodded, and the two walked out together again.

Back in the hallway, the vision returns.

I saw a person who looked like a manager on this floor standing at the entrance with a frown, and many workers gathered in front of him.

Everyone was shouting and shouting dissatisfaction:

"Why is everything different from what was promised! Why do we have to work for one person in this dark place!"

"We want to get out! We deserve the freedom we deserve!"

"Where's God! Can't our God hear our prayers!? Why doesn't he take care of us! He called us here, and now he wants us to wait here to die!?"

……

Faced with everyone's anger, the administrator had no choice but to promise over and over again that he would report it again.

At this moment, the phantom disappeared again, leaving only the dust accumulated over the years.

"So, Diego Rapian found a group of people and locked them in here, and then gradually forgot about them and let them fend for themselves?" Wendy murmured to herself.

It doesn't quite look like it.

Although Dickapian is eccentric, he truly loves the people and would never do such a thing.

If it was really what he did, it means that he wanted to hide something from others, and everyone locked up here knew about it, so he could only keep silent.

"Barbatos, under what circumstances would you choose to kill someone to keep a secret?" Zhongli asked, holding his chin in thought.

"Of course this secret will affect all of Mondstadt," Wendy replied without hesitation. "If Diehlappian didn't forget the people here, but deliberately let them die trapped here, I'm afraid this secret will affect Himself, even all of Mondstadt.”

After saying that, the two turned their heads and looked deeper into the corridor.

There was a door at the end of the corridor, which seemed to be the strongest and most difficult stone door to break through at that time.

If Diehlappian wanted to hide any secret, then the door behind that door seemed to be the most suitable place to hide it.

In the Phantom, someone mentioned that they were working for a person, and that person was probably the secret and was being hidden inside.

So, Wendy and Zhongli walked towards the door together.

When she reached the door, Wendy noticed that not only did the door look very strong, but its door lock had also been modified.

It is not an ordinary door lock, but a crystal of wind element.

At this point, Wendy suddenly understood why all the mechanisms were wind element crystals.

Because here, if you don't have enough pure wind element power, you can't come in and out freely, and in the tower, only Dick Lapian has the wind element. This is equivalent to the fact that without Die Lapian's permission, this place is like an isolated island. .

And inside this door, there should be an island within an island.

Wendy plucked the strings, and the wind element activated the spar.

With a "squeak" sound, the hard stone door opened, and a simple room came into view.

The room was not big, with a bed and a white skeleton lying on the bed. There were many books and notes piled on the floor.

This white skeleton looks very peaceful. If no one has come in, then he may have posed and quietly waited for death.

Wendy and Zhong Li walked in. After they paid respect to the deceased using the etiquette of their own countries, they slowly approached.

Wendy looked at his clothes. This sight didn't matter, it shocked Wendy greatly.

I saw a name written on the clothes, and that name was very familiar to the nearest Wendy, it was Corik.

"He actually died here?" Wendy's face was filled with confusion. "Didn't he write in his diary that he wouldn't live long? Also, why did Diego Rapian lock him up?"

At this time, Wendy's mood was very complicated, including joy and trouble.

The joy is that I found Corik's body, as well as the books and notes on the ground, maybe there will be some clues.

The depressing thing is that with the appearance of Korik, things have become more complicated. After all, it involves a dead demon.

So, the two of them didn't waste any more time and immediately started exploring the room.
