Chapter 2548: Chapter 2543: The Invisible Lighthouse

Lighthouse? Still shining?

So it’s indeed a metaphor, this resonance across time is quite something.

The Doorkeeper still seems to speak cryptically, but with that familiar shape, some things have once again been confirmed for Fu Qian.

If Moore’s arrangement, that is, the lighthouse on the Wise Dead’s eye, is really related to these people, then what is the purpose?

This was a question proposed from before, and the opinion at the time was that it belonged to someone who found this place first, then went back to set it up.

Rather than the intelligence from the Academy, using that as a clue to find here.

Honestly, it does go against intuition to some extent, but the victory of this logic seems to be recognized at this moment.

If it was set up later, then it must make sense for the normal operation of this place.

And the Doorkeeper just agreed with my statement, honestly admitting that the individual here cannot determine if they are a shadow or not.

Then facing this deliberately thrown paradoxical problem, he lets me receive the lighthouse’s guidance here, confidently solving it.

In summary, is the lighthouse used to help confirm one’s own state? To see if one has quietly become a shadow without knowing it?

”Stand on the prism.”

While thoughts raced, the Doorkeeper’s prompt came further, indeed requiring standing on that pattern.

”What, are you scared?”

And eagerly urged.

The Prism? The name sure is similarly insightful.

This anxious emotion has never been effective against Expert Fu.

Fu Qian indicated that at that moment, he even found another academic worker’s resonance.

Back when exploring Moore, it was finally by drawing on the usage of the Starry Prism, the result was that these people named that eye the Prism as well.

”Not bad, the name is quite apt.”

Without continuing to test the audience’s patience, Fu Qian already directly stood on it.

Even specially adjusted his position, facing the distant Moore.

The night was still deep, even the stars above seemed less lively.

In this unusual chaos, a ray of light shining would undoubtedly feel quite good.

Only when one stands amid the vastness, can the value of guidance be truly known.

...

The air was quieter than the lake surface.

Always with strong immersion, Professor Fu, at that moment, seemed to transform back into a knowledge seeker from years ago, pausing briefly in an unknowable impasse, reflecting upon oneself.

This temperament matched the environment so well, naturally formed, that it made people reluctant to speak out and disturb.

Of course, the audience not only because of this, everyone is so busy, appreciating the temperament is one thing, how could they forget what they were originally preparing to do.

And precisely because of this, the silence becomes more suffocating, all holding their breath, waiting without turning their eyes away.

Whenever it comes to testing lung capacity, time always seems particularly slow.

Fu Qian even remained silent when he shouldn’t, standing there like a statue, adding extra pressure to the audience.

”What’s going on?”

Finally, at a certain moment, someone couldn’t take it anymore, and a low roar filled with disbelief was heard.

Nearly a minute had passed, and that figure facing away from this side remained companioned only by starlight.

Much like the Long Night a thousand years ago.

...

What’s going on, indeed a good question.

So even like those on Moore’s side, seeing the lighthouse isn’t a good thing.

Quite has a feeling of being abandoned by the light, but at that moment for Fu Qian, the entire event became clearer.

The verification method proposed by researchers is actually very unfriendly to impersonators like myself.

After all, there is a fundamental issue not even clarified here, that is, if fallen into a shadow state, when should one see the lighthouse or not see the lighthouse if standing here?

Besides knowing what the tower is for, even this core design wasn’t understood, resulting in being almost completely like a lamb to the slaughter, making deceit difficult to execute.

Fortunately, through investigations and analysis, the principle is somewhat known—

The lighthouse only exists in the storm-ridden Moore, only those whose life-and-death balance is broken can possibly enter and interact with Moore from reality.

If you think about it, isn’t this quite like the Inverted Lake before your eyes?

The last time I came here there was nothing, and this time there is already such a large structure.

Theoretically, it’s a switch between two opposing states.

So for Fu Qian, as early as before standing on that eye, he almost understood how the lighthouse guides the lost.

Researchers went into the Sea of Ashes, engaging in forbidden and dangerous research, surely needing some protective measures against danger.

Such as regularly confirming whether one is truly lost.

And as mentioned just now, in this shadow state, starting from oneself, any self-examination might lose effect.

At this time, the lighthouse becomes an external anchor.

Through some special arrangements, allowing the two to resonate across great distances.

By then, when the light is on, it’s one state; when the light is off, it’s another state.

As for how the two states correspond, which signifies trouble, from the spectators’ doubts questioning life now, hints can actually be seen—

They believe they are shadows, but cannot accept the absence of light, indicating that the two do not correspond.

The lighthouse guides only the lost; seemingly standing here attracting its beam is not a good sign.

And everyone’s state is not the same; if you are not the shadow, then the shadow must be us...

”Time is almost up.”

At that moment, Fu Qian turned around timely, greeting the audience with a wave.

”Impossible...”

”There must be a mistake on Moore’s side!”

”He must have done something.”

Instantly causing a strong reaction.

...

A sharp guess, Moore indeed ran into some issues.

With a mocking smile, at that moment Fu Qian resembled a roulette winner, waiting for the opponent to pull the trigger.

Of course, under such fully pressuring postures, no one knew he actually somewhat agreed with those cries of despair.

When leaving Moore before, he conveniently dismantled the core of the lighthouse and brought it here, the place just found.

Almost a hundred percent certainty, the researchers’ arrangement has already lost its effect.

So most of the guesses are right, I meddled as a participant.

No matter if the problematic state corresponds to light or no light, standing here almost results in no light.

”If something was tampered with, why don’t you come over and try and you’ll know?”

Of course, out here everyone plays by the same rules, cheating with Heartbreaker, always classic moves.

Waiting till the spectators’ cries gradually subsided, Fu Qian even smiled and added a line.
