Chapter 109

The stone door remained unchanged, and as Oliver gazed at it intently, he had a sudden realization. Despite breaking free from the grasp of the stone door, he found himself not outside, but rather, within its confines!

To his astonishment, he had ventured to the other side of the stone door.

Oliver was stunned for a moment. As he whipped his head around to look inside, he discovered a hall adorned with some decorations. Apart from the entrance, the other three sides of the wall were fitted with transparent glass panels, allowing the sunlight to penetrate through the “windows.”

He was at the peak of Mount Rockenan. The interior of the peak was already hollowed out and transformed into an invisible viewing platform.

However, similar to the stone walls in the passage below, the platform had no visible indication of an obvious transparent window when viewed from the bottom.

Oliver remembered that he, Wayne, and the others had observed Mount Rockenan through their telescopes. Thereby, he was certain that the peak was covered in steep stone walls without any visible traces, let alone such a magnificent “window.”

“Why couldn’t I see such an obvious thing from underneath?” he wondered.

After some contemplation, Oliver found himself surrounded by an eerie silence that permeated the area. He hastily positioned himself against the cold stone door and called out in a desperate voice, “Sienna! Sienna? Wayne? Sim?”

Yet, his words dissolved into nothingness, leaving no trace of an echo, and the outside sounds remained beyond his hearing.

“The soundproofing effect is really impressive!” Oliver remarked sarcastically, then reached out to touch and probe at the stone door.

The feeling of being “swallowed” by the stone door was still vivid in his mind, yet it was hard to believe that a stone door was capable of such a feat.

Perplexed, Oliver gingerly explored the surface of the door with his fingertips, attempting to unravel the mystery. But soon, he discovered that the door was an extremely solid and icy rock. No matter how hard he tried, his fingers couldn’t penetrate its unyielding surface.

Overwhelmed by the peculiarity of his predicament, Oliver fell into a pensive state, his mind swirling with questions. “This is so weird!”
