Chapter 278: The Research Lab

Lucius followed Headmaster Orllan to a large building that looked suspiciously like a ball that had gone flat on one side. The roof was made entirely of glass, but the glass was darkened and unable to be seen through from the outside. The walls were made of the same stone found everywhere else.

When they made it inside, the glass roof continued to amaze everyone. Not only was it colored nearly black from the outside, but when they stepped inside, it looked as though the glass was normal. Somehow, they could see out from the inside, but not in from the outside.

"What is this?" Jade asked.

"I think the scientist who invented it called it 'two-way-glass' or 'two-way-mirror'. Or maybe it was…" Orllan began to devolve into a series of technical explanations that made no sense to any of the present company.
