Chapter 1: The Mysterious Client
In the stillness of midnight, an old man with a deeply lined face arrived at Detective Rio’s office.
He introduced himself as Professor Lazuardi, a geologist who had spent decades searching for answers to Earth’s greatest mysteries.
The professor carried a strange object—a metal sphere engraved with ancient symbols resembling a map of the world.
“Detective Rio,” he said in a voice filled with urgency, “I believe this artifact is the key to unlocking secrets of the Earth that have long been hidden. But ever since I found it, I’ve felt like I’m being watched. Someone is trying to take it from me. I need your help to uncover what this object really is—and why so many people are after it.”
Chapter 2: The Secret of the Ancient Artifact
Detective Rio began his investigation by consulting Dr. Amalia Farah, an expert in ancient symbols. After several days of analysis, Amalia discovered that the markings on the sphere formed part of an ancient map indicating mysterious locations in the North Pole and Antarctica.
One of the largest symbols pointed to something called “The Gate to the Inner World.”
“According to ancient theories,” Amalia explained, “the Earth is hollow, and within it lies another world—inhabited by unique beings. This symbol could be a clue to one of its entrances.”
Before they could dig deeper, Rio’s office was attacked by a group of masked men dressed in black. Fortunately, Rio managed to save the artifact and escape with Professor Lazuardi and Amalia.
Chapter 3: Journey to the North Pole
Following the clues on the metal sphere, Rio, Lazuardi, and Amalia set out for the North Pole, where one of the marked locations was believed to be. Their expedition was funded by an eccentric businessman named Damar Widjaya, who shared a fascination with the Hollow Earth theory.
Aboard an icebreaker ship, they sailed through the frozen seas until they discovered a hidden cave beneath layers of ice.
Inside the cave stood a massive stone door carved with the same ancient symbols as the sphere. The door had a circular mechanism—a perfect fit for the metal sphere, as if it were a key.
Chapter 4: The World Within
When the door opened, the group stepped into a dark tunnel that led them to an astonishing sight:
a vast inner world beneath the Earth’s surface.
They found glowing plants, colossal creatures resembling dinosaurs, and an ancient city with magnificent architecture—inhabited by tall, humanoid beings.
The inhabitants called themselves the Agartha, descendants of an ancient civilization that had chosen to live underground to escape destruction on the surface.
They warned Rio and his companions that humans above must never discover their existence, as it could lead to chaos and war.
Chapter 5: Conspiracy on the Surface
Not everything went as planned. Damar Widjaya revealed his true intentions—he planned to sell the knowledge of the Inner World to governments and corporations for profit.
When Rio uncovered his betrayal, he joined forces with Professor Lazuardi and Amalia to stop him.
In a tense final confrontation at the entrance of the cave, Rio fought to reclaim the metal sphere.
He succeeded, sealing the door to the Inner World and ensuring its secret remained hidden from humanity.
Chapter 6: Is the Earth Really Hollow?
After returning to the surface, Detective Rio reflected on what he had witnessed.
The world beneath the Earth was real—but he chose not to reveal the truth to the public.
He knew that some mysteries are better left undiscovered, for the sake of balance and peace.
Epilogue
Professor Lazuardi hid the artifact in a secret location, while Rio returned to his everyday life as a detective. Yet deep inside, he knew that the Earth still held countless secrets waiting to be uncovered.
Was this the end—or merely the beginning of a greater mystery?
Note:
The Hollow Earth Theory proposes that the Earth contains vast spaces within—or that it is completely hollow.
It was first introduced by Edmond Halley in the late 17th century but later disproved by Pierre Bouguer (1740) and Charles Hutton (1774).
In reality, modern geology and seismology have shown that the Earth has a solid core, a mantle, and a crust.
However, stories such as the alleged expedition of Admiral Richard Byrd, who claimed to have seen “another world” beyond the poles, continue to fuel legends of a hidden inner Earth.
Are there entrances to this inner world?
According to myths, locations such as the North Pole, Antarctica, and certain sacred mountains are said to be gateways—but there is no scientific evidence to support these claims.

"Detektif Rio," katanya dengan suara penuh harap, "saya yakin benda ini adalah kunci untuk membuka rahasia Bumi yang selama ini tersembunyi. Tapi sejak saya menemukannya, saya merasa diawasi. Seseorang ingin merebut artefak ini dari saya. Saya butuh bantuan Anda untuk menyelidiki apa sebenarnya benda ini dan mengapa begitu banyak orang tertarik padanya."
"Menurut beberapa teori kuno," kata Amalia, "Bumi itu berongga, dan di dalamnya terdapat dunia lain yang dihuni makhluk-makhluk unik. Simbol ini bisa menjadi petunjuk menuju salah satu pintu masuknya."
Namun, sebelum mereka bisa melanjutkan penyelidikan, kantor Rio diserang oleh sekelompok orang berpakaian hitam. Beruntung, Rio berhasil menyelamatkan artefak dan melarikan diri bersama Profesor Lazuardi dan Amalia.
Di dalam gua, mereka menemukan sebuah pintu besar yang diukir dengan simbol-simbol yang sama seperti pada artefak. Pintu itu hanya bisa dibuka dengan menempatkan bola logam pada sebuah mekanisme yang menyerupai kunci.
Para penghuni kota itu menyebut diri mereka sebagai "Agartha." Mereka menjelaskan bahwa mereka adalah keturunan dari peradaban kuno yang telah memilih untuk tinggal di dalam Bumi untuk melindungi diri dari kehancuran di permukaan. Mereka juga memperingatkan bahwa manusia di permukaan tidak boleh mengetahui keberadaan mereka, karena bisa memicu konflik besar.
Dalam konfrontasi terakhir di pintu masuk gua, Rio berhasil merebut bola logam dan menutup pintu menuju dunia dalam Bumi, memastikan agar rahasia itu tetap terlindungi.
