Chandan stepped forward immediately. There was no need for further explanation. Following the position Vikram had subtly indicated earlier, he placed his hand against a specific point on the wall.
Then, he pressed on it.
A dull mechanical sound echoed from within the wall.
"Rumble—"
The moment the mechanism was triggered, the entire ruin began to tremble. The tungsten steel wall in front of Vikram shook violently, far more intensely than the surrounding structure.
Then with a heavy mechanical sound the wall sank inward.
Slowly… it split open from both sides. A dark, narrow passage was revealed.
Inside was cold, silent and completely lightless. The scene was almost identical to the hidden path in the Wolf Spirit Ruins.
Vikram stared into the darkness for a moment, then asked calmly, "So this is where we go next?"
"Yes, Boss," Alex and Chandan replied immediately, nodding.
Vikram gave a slight nod, then turned his head toward Sunil.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
