Chapter 13: Into the Labyrinth
Looking at the apprentices who were talking in a whisper below, a middle-aged man walked to the front of the stage and said in a loud voice: "Please be quiet, please be quiet, and then we will be the chief of Wuwei to explain the rules and specific matters of this trial, which will be related to your apprenticeship."

Under the voice of the middle-aged man, the crowd slowly quieted down, and his eyes were focused on the high platform again, waiting for the next instructions.
Immediately afterwards, the tall man who was originally standing beside Wu Yue walked out, his eyes were cold, and he looked a little arrogant, first looked around, and then spoke: "This year's Drunken Immortal Building recruits a total of three hundred and eighty-seven apprentices, you are from all over the Northern Regions, and now you are also assigned to the twelve apprentices of the Drunken Immortal Building, and you will also study and practice here in the next three years." β
"And today is an important trial as an apprentice, the Star List Trial, the Star List is specially set up for apprentices in the Drunken Immortal Building, and it is also to motivate you to practice better, this list will discharge the top 100 apprentices, and the apprentices who successfully pass the trial and are entered into the Star List will receive some small privileges in the Drunken Immortal Building, such as the Academy of the Drunken Immortal Building will be fully open to it, you can participate in the apprenticeship food task, you can choose a cooking practice method in the side hall of the Drunken Immortal Building, etc., of course, these privileges are only to assist your practice, and you will not have an absolute advantage in the futureγ β
After a pause, Wu Wei continued: "The trial of the starry list is to put you into the maze, all of you will have your own separate route, will not meet other people, in the maze you will actively or passively receive some tasks, you must complete their current tasks before you can continue to move forward, those who successfully get out of the maze and return to the square are successful in the trial, and the ranking will be arranged according to the time when they walked out of the maze." β
"Of course, there will be some dangers in the maze, such as traps, low-level Warcraft ingredients, but they will not endanger your life, if you feel that you can't complete it, you can crush the bone jade in your hand, we will send guards to take you out of the labyrinth, which also means that the trial fails, although the star list is limited to one hundred, but it does not mean that you can successfully get out of a hundred apprentices every time, maybe only fifty people, which also shows the difficulty of the maze, if you don't want to accept it, you can also give up now, it will not affect your qualifications as an apprentice." γ β
Speaking of this, Wu Wei stopped and began to look at the crowd under the platform, but the apprentices just looked at each other, and no one took the initiative to give up, although this kind of trial is a little difficult, the probability of passing is not very large, but who doesn't want to try their luck, for the privilege of the star list Wu Wei said lightly, but everyone knows that it is very important for their apprentices, who doesn't want to be a leader and surpass others.
After a while, Wu Wei saw that there was no abnormality, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he chuckled: "Since you have all chosen to participate, then be ready to wait for the maze to open." After saying that, he turned his head and whispered a few words to the people around him, as if he was the guard in charge of the maze, and then looked at the three people in power, who should have asked for their opinions, and the three of them did not speak, but nodded lightly to Wu Wei to signal that it would continue.
Later, under the instructions of Wu Wei, many guards gathered directly below the platform, the first one seemed to be the chief of the guard, dressed in neat leather armor, and gave orders to the guards around him, ten people in a row divided into two groups, all on one side of the platform, and then at the same time pulled something hard,
The apprentices also instantly became nervous, I don't know what these people are going to do, with the guards pushing several times, a violent "rumbling" sound came, only to see that the tall stone wall under the platform actually began to slowly retreat to both ends, leaking out the true face inside.
Every inch of the stone wall moved, the whole ground shook with it, until the stone wall all retreated, it calmed down, inside were a few steps extending downward, and then twelve towering stone doors were connected side by side, looking solemn and ancient, it should have been pure for a long time, but I didn't expect this trial labyrinth to be built underground!
After the labyrinth was opened, the leading guard captain walked towards the apprentices and said in a loud voice: "I am Li Shan, the executive officer of this maze trial, and I will give you the positioning bone jade below, you have to take it with you, when you can't complete the trial, or encounter danger, trapped in the labyrinth, you can crush this bone jade, I will send someone to take you out, don't keep this jade with you and not lose it, once lost, it will be extremely difficult for us to rescue you." β
At the same time as the chief guard Li Shan explained, someone had already come up to give the apprentices a piece of bone jade, one piece per person, it didn't look strange, the green color was only the size of an egg, and a small drunken word could be engraved on it, Qian Shi took it and carefully put it into his arms, hoping that he would never use this piece of bone jade.
Seeing that everyone had been arranged, the head of the guard, Li Shan, said: "Now that the labyrinth has been officially opened, please follow all the apprentices and lead the guards into the corresponding stone gate." β
As he spoke, Qian Shi had already followed the guards who led them towards a stone gate in front of them, it seems that the twelve apprentices have corresponding positions, which should have been arranged a long time ago, and they stretched down a little bit across the slow platform, and as soon as they entered, there was a slight chill coming, and they couldn't help but shiver, and they didn't know what was hidden in this labyrinth, everything was unknown.
Qian Shi was in the center of the team in the morning, seeing that the people in front of him had entered the stone gate, he was also a little apprehensive, and he couldn't see the scenery above the square when he turned around, and soon Qian Shi also followed the crowd into the inside of the stone gate, looking around, there was a long road, there was no head, there were some grooves inlaid on the wall, some candles were burned inside, the flames were beating from time to time, and the dim light was even more weird.
And there are rows of small doors in the road, there are countless of them, respectively on both sides of the road, every time they move forward, the guards will guide some apprentices to enter the small door, it should be that everyone has a different route, after more than ten meters, the people around Qian Shi have become less and less, Sun Jiuwei, Li Cai and others don't know where to enter, I hope they can go smoothly.
Going a little deeper inside, Qian Shi found that there were only a few guards in charge of the trial left, as well as himself and Bai Yiyi, and the apprentice behind him had disappeared at some point, and at this time a guard was looking at him, pointing his finger forward, signaling him to enter the door in front of him.
Qian Shi looked at Bai Yiyi, who was a few meters away from him, she was also like herself, she was being urged at this time, ready to enter the maze, and couldn't help but whisper: "Come on, let's come out and see you." β
Bai Yiyi still had a licking smile and said softly: "Well, you too." β
Seeing Bai Yiyi disappear from his field of vision, Qian Shi did not delay any longer, turned around and walked into the door without hesitation.
