Chapter 196: The Oracle Store

With his Aether reward in his pocket, Jake headed this time to the Oracle Store, or rather the giant Blue Cube. He hadn't forgotten the ambush of Yerode and Lamine which had almost cost him his life and he intended to investigate how those two bastards had done it.

The Blue Cube was another gigantic cube, which like the Red Cube had been placed in open air in the hollow of another building. The Red Cube was in the middle of the pentagonal building that housed the five Halls, while the Blue Cube stood on top of a ring-shaped building in an upright position, like the sapphire of a big ring.

The ring-shaped building had a very zany architecture, but by some miracle it held perfectly in place. No tilting or unbalancing, its walls having the same smooth carbon-grey texture as the other buildings.
