More than ten seconds had passed after Jeremy started touching the Crystal; still, nothing perceptible happened or popped up in front of him at all.
Subsequently, Jeremy furrowed his eyebrows noticeably...
The frown this ti looked a bit more genuine than his earlier acting, though, because he indeed felt baffled that nothing had transpired after touching the Crystal for a long ti.
Then Jeremy thought to himself ponderingly,
'It looks like I haven't t the condition to activate the Crystal to see its content... So, there must be sothing more....'
'But what is it?'
Jeremy pondered within his mind for quite so ti but still couldn't find a definitive answer to such a broad question.
'Well... Whatever it is, I will just ask the guy and let him answer my dilemma himself...'
Upon finishing his montarily thought while still touching the red Crystal, Jeremy proceeded with the next play,
"The hell? This Crystal is a scam?"
Jeremy cussed unsatisfactorily at the Crystal and retracted his hand back with a disappointed face before picking the magical torch up from the ground.
Afterward, Jeremy turned to look around the spacious chamber again to see if there was sothing of note or not...
Then as if he had just thought of sothing, Jeremy's eyes brightened up noticeably.
Concurrently, he spoke up excitedly,
"That's right! There must be a secret room sowhere!"
Without delay, Jeremy hurriedly walked towards the wall on the right side, and he obviously chose to start with the walls opposite the ambusher's direction.
Shortly after, Jeremy was seen to be walking parallel to the right side's wall and scrutinizing every nook and cranny to see if there was any noticeable thing on it or not.
Also, Jeremy would reach out his hand to touch and caress the wall from ti to ti, and he continued doing so for quite a while.
Around five minutes later...
At this mont, Jeremy thought it was finally an appropriate ti to 'accidentally' discover the hidden room, as the ti of five minutes was considered neither long nor short, just enough for him discover the room.
Subsequently...
"Oh!"
Jeremy exclaid excitedly in a loud voice as he had indeed found a seam situated among the rocky wall.
After that, he started touching the wall and magical torches crazily like a madman.
Sure enough...
*Click*
*Whoong* *Whoong*
The chanism noises rang out resoundingly within the quiet chamber...
Like the final chamber of the easy-difficulty door, the rocky wall in front of Jeremy began to move a little, revealing small gaps from the seams at the sides.
Then the big wall started moving backward, letting Jeremy see the interior of the 'room'.
Afterward...
*Fwhoosh*
*Fwhoosh*
*Fwhoosh*
The magical torches hung in the tal connectors on the walls within the squared rocky room promptly lit up simultaneously, giving warm-white lights into the surrounding areas.
...
『 You have received 2x★ for discovering the hidden chamber 』
...
At this ti, the hidden chamber's outlook finally appeared before Jeremy's eyes...
The entire room only looked to be around 10x10 ters in dinsion with rocky walls on four sides.
The room's interior was 'almost' empty if it wasn't for a stone platform, with a mysterious-looking diagram on its surface, situated in the middle area.
Except for the platform and the magical torches on the walls, there was nothing else at all...
Regarding the elevated stage, it was built 10 centiters above the ground. anwhile, the circular diagram on the platform was filled with countless curves and lines connecting various runes spanning the entire platform.
At first glance, the outlines looked pretty similar to the Enchantnt Diagram Jeremy had inscribed when he was in his house basent.
However, the runes within the diagram on the stone platform right now looked much more complex and majestic than the ones Jeremy had ever created so far.
Upon seeing the sight ahead of him, Jeremy's eyes brightened up considerably as he thought inwardly,
'Jackpot! It's a basic teleportation circle, which requires the Array-Enchantnt Inscription to create, just like my space storage gloves. Also, it should be that secret teleportation circle from the fourth tutorial missions list.'
'Heh... That will give another four black stars as a freebie...'
When Jeremy thought till here, he suddenly fell into deep thought,
'By the way, even after I've discovered this secret chamber, you still don't have any plan to attack, huh. If that is really the case... all the questions and mysteries have been solved then...'
'It appears that the ambusher simply doesn't plan to fight or ambush in the first place. After all, I've already given him two perfect chances to attack right in the back, but he chooses not to do anything and has remained at the sa place for more than seven minutes already.
'That can only an one thing... The ambusher wants to leave here as soon as possible...'
'Oh, my... Isn't this exactly the chance I'm looking for?' Jeremy grinned evilly.
Currently, he was giving his back openly to the ambusher hiding at the chamber's far-end corner, so the latter didn't feel anything out of the ordinary from him at all.
Then Jeremy continued his thought,
'Hmm... It looks like I have to change the plan for a bit. That is... from direct confrontation to reverse ambush.'
'Also, the ambush has to be swift and traceless not to waste my mana unnecessarily... Hmm... Let's use that spell then...'
Upon finishing his thought about the thod to cope with the unknown enemy, Jeremy's face suddenly morphed into a fervent one. Then he said excitedly while looking ardently at the magic diagram,
"It is a magic circle as in the fourth tutorial mission!"
After saying those words in a moderately loud voice, Jeremy hurriedly walked right into the room towards the magic circle on the platform with the steel spear and magical torch in his hands.
Without any delay, Jeremy stepped onto the 10 centiters platform and positioned himself at the centermost place of the teleportation diagram.
Simultaneously...
*Whoong*
A strange noise suddenly resounded out right after Jeremy stood above the diagram, as the engraved teleportation spell was activated automatically...
Afterward, the entire teleportation circle suddenly lit up brightly, causing the whole chamber to be illuminated with white light akin to soone suddenly switching open a spotlight from within.
'Alright...'
Jeremy, who stood on top of the circle, thought mysteriously after seeing the teleportation circle lit up with bright light.
Then he started counting down within his mind,
'4...'
'3...'
'2...'
'1...'
After Jeremy had counted to one, he suddenly stepped out from the brightened magic circle and crept silently towards the hidden chamber's corner.
It appeared that Jeremy didn't intend to be teleported outside in the first place...
