In this puzzle you must listen to a sound emitted by the guard machine located on the left side. If you move faster, the machine deactivates the bridge and you will fall down.

Along the way, you will find an entrance into the second secret room. To find out how to complete it, see chapter entitled Secret rooms.
As you enter the room, you will notice four doors and an energy beam connecting all the doors. Probe the beam, which will open the first door. After you cross the door, release it back into the container, which opens the second door. Repeat this action once again, thanks to which yyou will open the passage into the next sector.

NOTE! When you enter the room, you should look at the upper-right corner of the screen quickly. Someone will appear there briefly.
First, take the energy beam that you can see in front of you and pick up the container on your left. Place it by the stairs in a such way that would allow it to roll down. Then, run to the door on the right. Now, you only need to walk around the object, open the door and walk into the room.

Enter the room and notice the panel on the left, the one with five beams - three green and two violet. Place two green beams into two empty containers near the door. This will unlock access to the next blockade. Repeat the action with one violet (which has to be in the upper container) and one green beam. Take the blue beam and return to the first room.
You should have six beams: one blue, three green and two violet beams.
Set the beams in the weapon and containers in the same way as in the screenshot. Enter the next room in which you only have to place the blue beam in the upper container. Return for the last, green, beam. This allows you to open the door in the last room that is located on the right. You are awarded with the Achievement but there is still one more secret - the door opposite to you.
To unlock them, you must set three beams in the correct order. Place the violet one in the upper spot, the green one in the middle and the blue one should be placed on the bottom. Take the green one from the door nearby and place it in the middle. Then, take two green beams and return to the first room where you have to change the violet beams with the green ones. Place one of the violet beams below the blue one in the second room. Stand near the door and quickly take the blue beam. You now have all the necessary beams to open the next door.

2. Fill all the spots with beams from the previous room.
3. One beam is enough to unlock the door.
4. You have to take the beams from the previous room and set them in the same way as in the configuration above.
5. This time, you must place four beams into the containers.
6. The next configuration also includes four beams.
7. It's almost the last configuration to unlock the achievement.
8. Go upstairs and take three energy beams. Follow the lower path until you reach the last configuration.
9. Take the last, fourth, beam from below - the beam is near the slots. Release the beams. This unlocks the door near the first room where you solved the configurations.
