Day 135

With each day spent in the depths of this cavern, surrounded by mysterious minerals and the vibrations of ancient energy, I realize more and more how limited my research within the walls of the laboratory was. The reality of the world "IN" is incredibly complex and diverse, and even a common stone here is imbued with energy unlike anything I've seen before.

My experiments with gemstones in the cavern did not yield the expected results. Neither the simple combination of three gemstones of different colors, nor more complex combinations, could affect the rock. This rock seems to completely ignore or even absorb the energy of the gemstones without any visible changes.

When another wave of monsters was upon us, and I hurriedly sought cover, accidentally triggering an explosion of my gemstone reserves, something unexpected happened. Returning to the site of the experiments after repelling the attack, I discovered a pile of rubble and broken stones. This accidental explosion provided me with the long-awaited resources, yet the question of how to replicate this effect remains open.

This incident plunged me into contemplation of the fine line between chance and regularity in scientific discoveries. Perhaps the key to the puzzle lies not in the strength or quantity of the gemstones but in their interaction with the environment or even in the chaos of battle, which somehow activates their energy.

In the coming days, I plan to discuss this explosion with the heroes who witnessed the event. Their perspectives and hypotheses may provide invaluable assistance in understanding the mechanisms of the gemstones' effects on minerals. This incident reminds me that science is not only about meticulous experiments in a predictable environment but also about the ability to see opportunities in the most unexpected situations.

The world of "IN" continues to amaze me with its secrets. And each new discovery brings us closer to understanding its profound laws. I hope that together we can unravel this mystery and use the power of gemstones not just for defense, but also to ease the labor in our new home.

(P.S. Heroes, do you have any guesses? How could the gemstones have shattered the stones in the cavern, and how can we use this to mine resources?)
