Overview

To find this puzzle, as you go from the Seventh Puzzle to the Eighth Puzzle, instead of crossing the bridge straight to reach 8, take the road to the right and follow it.

When you enter loop, you find a driller and a connector. The connector is already connected to a red energy source. There is a blocked off area to the right with a pressure plate and a fan, and several copper walls. You are able to explore further into the puzzle where you find a cube and two pressure plates. The progress wheel is blocked off from the player with a plasma field, which is turned off only when both pressure plates are pressed.
