What was brought out in Chapter 539?
"Don't worry, you're safe there. I'll be back soon."
Melos seemed to sense Lin Xiyue's unease. He stopped, turned around, and comforted her in a gentle tone.
His voice was exceptionally clear in the noisy environment, which directly reassured Lin Xiyue.
After saying that, Meros didn't even give Lin Xiyue time to reply before he strode towards the huge lava wave without hesitation.
As if the surging lava was nothing more than a decorative curtain of water to him, he easily broke through the large expanse of churning lava and walked straight in as if it were flat ground.
The moment Meros stepped into the magma, the part of the magma that he had forcibly separated suddenly closed up again, as if propelled by an invisible force, restoring it to its original state.
Even the lava that was originally standing upright sank immediately, as if by magic, and returned to its original state in the blink of an eye.
It was only then that Lin Xiyue realized that the seemingly ferocious magma wave was actually just a door-like structure that one could enter.
Meros's purpose for this trip was simply to "pick" something of unknown origin; it was a simple matter for him—he only needed to go inside.
However, Lin Xiyue probably wouldn't be able to do it, since that should be real lava.
Since Meros had already entered, Lin Xiyue had nothing to do for the time being, so she began to carefully examine the room she was in.
She had only glanced at the room briefly before, but now that she had calmed down and observed it carefully, she discovered that there were many more details and secrets hidden inside.
The room had a very peculiar layout; besides the control panel in the center, there were other items placed around it.
Although these items look somewhat disorganized, they all seem to have a specific purpose.
On the left, there is a huge, pure white metal table, standing there like a snow-capped mountain.
The table surface was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the surrounding light and exuding a cold and mysterious aura.
There were some instruments on the table, all of which looked very expensive and were obviously used for some kind of high-precision experiment or research.
These instruments are exquisitely designed with smooth lines, and every detail reveals their professional and high-end quality.
On one corner of the table, there were some test tubes, neatly arranged.
These test tubes contain various colors, some transparent, some with a faint blue or green tint, and they all look quite attractive.
Next to the table was a large recliner with a rather peculiar appearance, resembling some kind of testing instrument.
The chaise lounge is covered in soft white leather, which complements the surrounding environment.
However, Lin Xiyue did not know exactly what the recliner was used for.
Looking to the right, that's where Lin Xiyue and the others entered the room.
There are several doors in the walls there, which are almost integrated with the walls and are easy to miss if you don't look closely.
These doors were marked with simple foreign characters. Although Lin Xiyue's understanding of foreign characters was very limited, she was still able to clearly understand what was written on them with her limited knowledge.
These doors actually lead to different rooms.
The foreign script indicates that some of these doors were rest areas, likely a temporary resting place for Meros.
Some are disinfection rooms, used to disinfect personnel and items entering the laboratory to ensure a clean and safe experimental environment.
Others are warehouses, which should store various experimental supplies and materials.
Because these doors were almost the same color and material as the walls, and because Lin Xiyue was nervous and confused when she first came in, she didn't notice their existence at first.
"Snap—"
Just as Lin Xiyue was feeling incredibly conflicted, wondering whether she should go to the lounge to see what was inside, a crisp and loud sound broke the surrounding silence.
The sudden sound instantly drew Lin Xiyue's attention.
She quickly looked in the direction the sound came from and saw Meros holding something she couldn't see clearly, slowly walking towards her.
Lin Xiyue's curiosity was instantly ignited. She couldn't wait to know what Moros was holding, especially since he had previously said that this thing could resolve her doubts.
So, Lin Xiyue, like a cheerful little bird, quickly ran towards Meros.
Her steps were light and quick, as if she were walking on air.
In the blink of an eye, she was standing in front of Meros.
"Are you curious?"
With a faint smile on his lips, Moros looked at Lin Xiyue, whose face was full of curiosity, and asked softly.
"Hmm, I'm very curious. After all, you've kept this from me for so long!"
Lin Xiyue made no attempt to hide her curiosity, nodding vigorously while adding a hint of reproach.
"Well... you'll see."
Moros seemed to have anticipated Lin Xiyue's reaction. He touched his nose and then handed the metal box in his arms to Lin Xiyue.
The metal box looks somewhat old, with slight wear on the surface, but it exudes a mysterious aura.
Lin Xiyue looked closely and immediately recognized the box as the one the strange birds had given him in the tunnel.
Lin Xiyue saw it as soon as she came out of the tunnel.
"For me? Can I open it now?"
Lin Xiyue happily accepted the box, her face beaming with anticipation. She looked up at Molos with her beautiful eyes filled with doubt, as if asking him if he could really open the mysterious box now.
"Yes, of course. Come over here and open it. It was meant for you to see anyway."
Meros's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and he spoke softly.
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the place that had been converted into a small laboratory. Lin Xiyue saw this and hurriedly followed.
The two arrived at the table in the laboratory. Lin Xiyue casually placed the metal box on the table and then opened it.
Since the box may have been opened by Meros before, Lin Xiyue did not encounter much resistance and easily opened the lid.
The instant the box was opened, a strong white mist, like a surging wave, gushed out from the gaps in the box.
The fog seemed to flow endlessly, and in the blink of an eye, it completely enveloped a large area of the room.
