- In case you are not sure this secret code is input to which input code area, there are some very big props in the input code area that look similar with the props in the area that required red orb to access.
How to read outer world code?
- This is the toughest one because you cannot visual it, you have to listen it.
- Each time you shoot at the mirror, it will produce different tone. The tones are always play in sequence and looping.
