Chapter 182 Cosmic Octagonal Nexus Disk
In the center of the stone door was a circular disk.
There was a Cosmic Octagonal Nexus on the disk, surrounded by a scattered astronomical star
map.
“Isn’t this a Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk? Why is it here?” Sylvia asked in surprise.
“This is a Cosmic Octagonal Nexus constellation map. The scattered stars represent the 28 constellation
s, and there are also 12 astrological signs. There’s a mystery hidden in this!” Caspian explained.
At a glance, he understood the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus constellation map.
“It’s just a door. Why complicate things with such intricate details?” Macy questioned.
“There seem to be words on both sides of the door.” Sylvia shone her flashlight on either side
of the stone.
Under the dim light, they saw the words written on it. They read, “Break the disc, enter this door”
“So, the secret to opening the stone door lies in deciphering the star disc?” Sylvia suddenly
realized.
Caspian nodded. The Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk served as the switch for the stone door. Only by unr
aveling the mysteries on it would they have a chance to open the door.
“No wonder those Tigra special forces haven’t been active lately. They must have been stumped by this,”
Macy said.
“The Cosmic Octagonal Nexus is a quintessential part of Diatorian’s heritage. They’re bound to be unabl
e to decipher it,” Caspian affirmed.
“Is deciphering the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk really difficult?” Macy, unfamiliar with such knowledge,
asked.
“Don’t ask such pointless questions next time. If it’s used as the key to the stone door, it certainly isn’t si
mple!” Caspian remarked calmly.
Soon after, they noticed traces of explosives on the corners of the stone door.
Obviously, the Tigrans had used explosives. But they hadn’t anticipated the door to be so sturdy.
“It
seems there must be invaluable treasures behind this stone door!” Macy speculated.
“You’re saying pointless things again! If there’s nothing in there, do you think Tigra would

However, what puzzled everyone was how the people of Tigra knew about Diatoran’s geographical veins
.
But this wasn’t the time to ponder over that question.
“Let’s not dwell on other matters for now. Since the Tigrans have helped us dig the passage and found th
e entrance, the priority now is to open this stone door,” Caspian said as he began studying the Cosmic O
ctagonal Nexus disk on the door.
“Lord Caspian, are you sure you can decipher it?” Sylvia asked.
Caspian raised his hand, signaling her to be quiet.
He gazed at the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk on the stone door as he delved deeper into his thoughts.
After some careful observations, he realized some things.
The 28 constellations, pointing north, south, east, and west represented the four majestic beasts, the Azu

However, the Azure Dragon of the east constellation was surrounded by stars from all directions, indicati
ng a dire situation!
Combined with the name “Dragon’s Hill“, it was evident that to open the stone door, the needed to resolv
e the crisis in the east constellation. Specifically, the Azure Dragon’s predicament.
Soon, Caspian was deeply engrossed in his thoughts as he generated countless ideas in his
mind.
When Sylvia and Macy saw his serious demeanor, they didn’t dare to disturb him.
At that moment, Caspian felt as though he were on an ancient battlefield. He was
facing an onslaught from the four magical beasts charging from different directions.
“I will never sit back and wait for death! Even if I die, I’ll die with dignity!” His eyes were dull as he sudden
ly shouted.
Sylvia and Macy were taken aback by Caspian’s sudden outburst.
The next moment, he rushed toward Sylvia, snatched her gun, and aimed at his own temple!
This sudden turn of events terrified everyone present.
“Lord Caspian!” everyone shouted in a panic.
Sylvia and Macy swiftly moved to snatch the gun from Caspian.

A gunshot echoed in the tunnel.
Thankfully, the bullet hit the surrounding wall.
They were relieved to see Caspian unharmed.
“Lord Caspian, are you okay?” Sylvia held the gun and asked anxiously.
“What just happened?” Macy asked.
They were both shocked by Caspian’s attempt at self–harm.
The gunshot jolted Caspian awake.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Caspian noticed everyone looking at him in terror.
“Lord Caspian, why did you try to end your life? Luckily, we were quick to intervene!” Sylvial
exclaimed.
If she and Macy hadn’t acted immediately, Caspian might have…
“End my life? What are you talking about?” Caspian was shocked.
Yet, he realized he was holding a gun in his right hand.
Sylvia and Macy held onto his hand tightly.
“Let go. I’m fine now,” he said.
Seeing Caspian regain his senses, they released him.
“Lord Caspian, what just happened?” Macy asked as she couldn’t wrap her head around the
incident.
“This Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk is dangerous. It can bewilder the mind!” Caspian
recalled everything that happened and found it unbelievable.
“Is that even possible?” Macy was astonished.
“Yes. I was studying the constellation chart when suddenly, it felt like I was on an ancient battlefield, and t
earlier.
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. They realized the seemingly inconspicuous Cosmic Octagona

His knowledge in this area was limited.
Sylvia and Macy were reluctant. They wanted to explore if there was another way to open the

However, after surveying the area, they felt helpless. Thick stone walls surrounded them. The walls were
“Maybe I should try and move the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk. What if it works?” Macy naively suggest
“Don’t act recklessly! We don’t know if there are any traps here! Take a photo of the disk and we’ll study it
Macy was too stubborn, and Caspian felt helpless looking at her.
At this moment, a person flashed in his mind. That person might understand the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus
The
person was his wife, Willow.
Once, during a casual conversation, Caspian learned that Willow’s grandfather was an expert
in astronomy. He even passed some of his knowledge to her.
