Beyond the stone door was not the spacious passageway he had expected, but a relatively small stone chamber.
Several long tables made of black metal stood along both sides of the room, while numerous mana instruments were embedded in the walls. Some had been completely destroyed, while others still emitted a faint glow.
Directly opposite the entrance hung an enormous circular crystal screen, with a reddish-copper control console covered in intricate patterns beneath it.
Victor surveyed his surroundings and quickly understood the room's purpose.
"An observation chamber?"
Clearly, the Saint Laurent imperial family had not completely abandoned its research into the main hall after sealing it.
Instead, they had established an observation facility here to monitor changes within the building.
Unfortunately, most of the equipment had stopped functioning over the years.
Victor approached one of the metal tables.
