Mu En fell to the ground and took a deep breath, and was just relieved when he was knocked away by a palm.

Suddenly slammed into the wall and whimpered, Mu En realized that the iron spear did not penetrate the demon bear with a blow, but did not enter it, and it looked like it was still alive.

His back had been worn out, but it didn't seem to hurt him except for the first time. At this time, there was some warmth in the neck, and when I reached out, it turned out that I had just hit the stone wall, and the back of my head was broken.

Mu En then looked at his red hand with a bleak glimmer for a few seconds, and the pain began to spread from behind him.

Looking up, the demon bear had already rushed towards him, apparently trying to slap his head off with one click.

"I don't know what kind of madness you're making, it's really not good at reading at ordinary times, and it's like cerebral palsy at a critical time. Because of the double pain, Muen used rather vicious words to mock Karna.

Mu En drew his long sword and used his magic power to summon the fire barrier engraved on the sword, and then took out the pocket watch and injected magic into it.

"Stand back and protect yourselves with your magic. At the last moment, Mu En shouted at them.

After a moment of silence, the flames filled every corner as far as the eye could see, clinging to the rocks, dead vines, and charred corpses of demon bears, burning fiercely for a long time.

The three people standing a little farther away all hurriedly retreated, and urged their magic to defend with all their might, but their magic barrier was also ignited by raging flames, and their magic power was rapidly consumed. Fortunately, the body was not contaminated with these flames of the burning city, which were somewhat similar to the fire of corruption.

"Senior brother, it seems that you are the only one who is good to me in the world. Mu En looked at the damaged pocket watch and sighed in his heart. Although Ansher usually doesn't look like a positive type, at least the quality of these magic weapons sent is not mixed with water at all.

He struggled to his feet and threw himself on the bear's body to disperse the flames and prevent it from scorching the bear's carcass.

"I'll say it again, this time I'll explain to you why I'm so sure about the situation here. Please, listen, Karna!" Muen's voice could be felt to be extremely angry right now. "This is a shallow labyrinth secret realm, idiot! Except for a few places that have been stabilized by the secret method and are clearly recorded, the only possibility of the secret realm appearing is with the advent of the realm of kings! The vegetation on the wall is not completely rotten, that is to say, this place once had an environment where they could grow, and the realm of kings as a reflection of the world, although it is bizarre, still has a relatively complete physical system, with its own sun, moon and stars. In other words, if a secret realm does not have an independent environment, it must be attached to the existence of the great secret realm!"

"The small secret realm will be the first to dock in the real world before the arrival of the king realm, and in this way, the small secret realm that has just appeared is not pulled by the power of the king realm, and their nature will be more constrained by the stable rules of the real world, and there will be no collection of several types of secret realms. That kind of gathering can only be entered from the inner side of the realm of kings after it is possible to fully descend from the realm of kings. All in all, it is impossible for the Absolute Compound Secret Realm to enter directly in this world, do you understand?!" Muen stood up and glared at Karna, the pocket watch in his hand still emitting black smoke outward.

He slammed the damaged pocket watch into the sole of Karna's feet, pointing it at his nose.

"I'm charging in front, and you don't want to contribute with a cold gun in the back, right? Okay, let's go out and chat, and I won't worry about you for now. ”

With that, he put his hood on, took out his long sword, and began to remove the edible flesh from the demon bear's body.

Karna didn't know what to do for a while, and the scene became a little awkward.

Elizabeth walked past Karna and looked at him, seeming very disappointed.

"Munn, you walked farther, did you find anything?" asked Daphne, crouching down beside Muen.

"It's a lot harder than I thought, you've walked through the labyrinth, right?" asked Mu En as he stopped his movements and turned his head.

"Walk through, and I've painted it. ”

"Then you can understand this labyrinth as a labyrinth within a labyrinth. ”

"A labyrinth within a labyrinth?"

"Hmm...... It's a bit hard to explain. Let's put it this way, this maze is not just a plane, we may need to climb up or go down. Because of the height, the possibilities become more likely, and we can't directly observe the whole maze, which makes it even more difficult. ”

"So what are we going to do?"

Mu En rubbed his chin and said, "Actually, I think the best way now is to stay where you are and wait for rescue." Because it seems that the entrance is the same, in fact, waiting for rescue here is the most reliable way. But this is a deep mountain and old forest, and it is estimated that it is difficult for someone who is qualified to come to our rescue. ”

"Didn't you say that there are restrictions on access to the secret realm? a small secret realm like this should be easy to tear open the rift in the space, right?" Elizabeth also walked over and helped Mu En wrap up the freshly shaved meat.

"That's a magister who specializes in space magic. If you haven't learned the laws of space and want to forcibly break through the space barrier, you may need at least a high-level mage to do it. "It was not for nothing that Muen was called an encyclopedia by Karna, and the wealth of knowledge gained from the assiduous memorization of books allowed him to remain at the heart of his peers.

"So...... It's up to fate. There is no reason to trap people to death in the masterless secret realm, and if we bring all this bear meat, it will be enough for us to eat for half a month. "The Atlanteans don't eat offal, so the bear's organs, Muen, were taken out and thrown aside.

"But we probably can't take it all with us, it's too heavy. Devine lifted a bear paw and frowned.

Muen pulled the iron spear out of the bear's chest and threw it behind him.

The bear's skin had been burned black, but it was still very tough, so Mu En took off the skin as completely as possible, sewed up the broken parts with bear tendons, and then used this large improvised bag to put all the bear meat inside.

"It's okay, the meat left after removing the visceral bones and skull is only about 100 catties. But now there is also a problem, which is that although there is food in this place, there is no water. After Muen cut all the meat into pieces and put it in the leather pocket, he suddenly thought of this more serious problem.

"We can use magic to create the element of water. "But the magic here is a little thin. ”

"Speaking of which, I remember, when I first came in, the light was dim, but when you appeared, it was much brighter, and the concentration of mana increased. Elizabeth said with a smile.

"What's the use? Even so, some bastards still don't believe it. Muen then sarcastically said to Karna.

Karna stood not far away, his emotions were a little complicated, on the one hand, after observing the signs, these people did not seem to be fake, and felt a little guilty about them, and on the other hand, he felt a little annoyed because Muen had been sarcastic about him. The iron spear was just thrown by Muen and stuck in the ground, and Karna didn't come over to pick him up.

"Chamberlain, you go to the Twilight Forest. It's not been peaceful lately, and the palace is summoning me all the time, so I can't go there in person. Tavasis sat in his office, facing the man in the snow robe in front of him.

The eldest disciple had already left in a hurry after returning, and the younger disciple had disappeared from his field of vision far away in the Twilight Forest.

"Yes, sir. Chamberlain's voice was as crisp as a woman's, and looking at his face, it was also graceful like a girl's face, and his pure white hair hung down to his waist, which complemented the light and beautiful snow robe on his body.

The emblem on his chest identifies his identity, a magus from the Tower.

After Chamberlain had left, Tawasis rubbed the roots of his mountain, feeling as if His Majesty was hiding something from him.

"Your Majesty, a letter from Lord Diagao. "Outside the door, another clerk walked in.

"It's not going to be good to be on his side, just put the letter there, I'll read it later." ”

Opening the letter, which was covered with a crow feather, Tavasis' brow tightened.

It is as if the scene from more than 40 years ago has reappeared in front of me again.

Sighing helplessly, Tavasis wrote a letter to Anschel.

In the secret realm, Mu En finally decided to try to get out of this labyrinth, and Karna and he were silent, just silently in the procession, one after the other, and the spear was used as a flat shoulder to carry the half-cooked bear meat.

"Have you ever found a corpse or anything here?" Walking in the dark and quiet atmosphere, I always start to think crankily for some reason.

"I hadn't gone very far before, but I had made a few turns not far ahead, and then I came across the bear, who was probably hungry and chased me like crazy. But when I encountered it, it was a dead end, so let's go straight to the other path, in fact, in the scope of my current exploration, it is not too complicated, there are only two forks in the road. Mu En does not hide it privately, and gives all the information he has.

A few people walked slowly and leisurely in the secret realm, in addition to the discomfort of the atmosphere, a few people actually felt a little comfortable. The environment is neither hot nor very dry, and it is slightly better than that of the Twilight Forest, which is already in winter.

I don't know how long I walked, the first uphill appeared, and the stone wall that Karna couldn't climb to the top seemed to gradually become lower and lower as everyone walked, and finally stopped on top of everyone's heads.

Karna now propped up the two girls, then passed the pieces of meat, and went up again, and finally Karna.

"Look, there's something over there!" Less than two hundred meters later, Daphne pointed overhead.

The group followed her fingers and saw a cave in the rock wall.

"I'll go up and have a look. Karna volunteered, believing in the authenticity of his companion since he saw Muen unleash the magic in the pocket watch, and that a man with that power didn't need to go to such trouble if he wanted to kill him.

Elizabeth agreed, and Karna looked back at Munn, who didn't seem to want to pay attention to him.

Sighing, Karna began to climb with his bare hands.

"There's a dried corpse on it, and it looks like it's been dead here for years. It didn't take long for a voice from above to say, "Muen, do you want to come up and take a look?" It seems that he desperately wants to improve his relationship with Muen.

"No need, just take it down if you see what clues he has. Muen replied leaning against the rock wall.

As the saying goes, it's easier to go up a mountain than to get down, and it's even more so to climb with bare hands, so Karna is much slower to descend than up.

"There's a note here, like a map of the places he's explored, and the rock wall above has his diary and whatever. Karna said to Muen.

"What's the content?" was not asked by Muen, because Muen didn't seem to care too much, so it was asked by Elizabeth.

It says that he struggled here for fifteen days and then gradually died, because he had no food and could barely survive on the water element, and after a week Otsuki he was completely unable to walk, and he waited to die in it after digging a hole in the rock face. By the way, he also said that he seemed to have seen something somewhere, but he didn't write what it was, he probably didn't see it clearly, and he was already scared at that time. ”

"It was obvious that this place was going to be in danger at some point, otherwise he wouldn't have climbed that high without being able to walk. Mu En looked at the picture and had a little gain, at least it proved that their luck was not bad.

"I have a question, why did he walk such a short distance in seven days?" said Daphne, who wondered if she had only walked for half a day.

"It takes a lot of luck to walk the maze, and when you're unlucky, you may have to walk every fork in the road, and if you're lucky, you can keep going straight to the end with your intuition. Mu En handed the piece of soil to the others to circulate, and then he suddenly thought of what happened six years ago and frowned.

"Normally, I shouldn't be a lucky person......"

Nubis's huge jackal head seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and the terrifying pillar of light really left a lot of shadows on him.

"Maybe I have the blessing of my family. Elizabeth smiled.

"Blessing of strong luck, are you a spell family?" Mu En was a little curious, it was his knowledge blind spot for the surnames and expertise of the imperial nobles, because he had not been asked to know about this information, at most he knew the unique "Star Magic" of the Elf King family, the "Sun Flame Method" of the senior brother's father's family, and the inheritance of the "Sky Power" that the Imperial Imperial Family would definitely choose in the second circuit, and the only thing left was the very famous "Abyss Water Method" of the Seagod Order.

"It's not a family of spells...... It's just that we have a strong luck circle left by our ancestors a long time ago, and newborns with pure blood can light up the circle to be blessed, but I don't know why I don't feel like it's been going well recently. ”

"That's probably because you're too close to me......" Mu En apologized a little in her heart, but didn't say it.

Most of the nobles in the empire were unsurnamed, with the exception of a few who were extremely old-fashioned. Of these old aristocrats, there were only four large landowners who still ruled a certain province, and at the time of the tower, they had no two powers, and they were called the Four Pillars of State.

They are: Monroe in the North, Capet in the South, Russell in the East, and York in the West. Among them, the Monroe clan is the surname with the lowest starting point among the four giants. Their ancestor, the Duke of Monroe, became a commoner of the Grand Duke after the Battle of the Founding of the People's Republic of China because of his great military exploits and the inexplicable relationship with the royal family. His descendants took his name as a surname and gradually became one of the oldest nobles.

And in addition to these four pillars of the kingdom and the royal family, in fact, there are not too many noble families that maintain the circuit attributes chosen by their ancestors when they were brilliant, because with the passage of time, people have found that everyone is good at magic in different directions, even in the same family, so there are fewer and fewer stubborn nobles.

"Maybe it's because the old dog's spell in the secret realm has weakened my influence. Mu En thought so.

Nubis had a sense in the desert, he opened his palm, and the magic appeared in his claws in a very mysterious gesture, but he found nothing, a rare phenomenon that made him feel a little strange.

After all, if you talk about the accuracy of the sixth sense and the ability to see the world from afar, it can be said that there is no one in the world who can match it.

"Then what should I do now?" It was not himself who was lucky, and Mu En was also very low-key to listen to the big guy's words, after all, he still wanted to get out alive.

"I don't know when this good luck will run out, so why don't we collect it here now? Study this map to increase our chances of making it out. Elizabeth smiled slightly, although she was not a particularly strong person, but the eldest lady who was born in the family of the Marquis, how could she not like the feeling of the initiative in her own hands?

"I've already understood that picture, it's probably that we go back to another way, go that way, and then we should encounter something, so far it seems that there should be a monster guarding there, and he can't beat it, so he was chased here. Mu En quickly gave his own analysis.

"No, he was already very weak at that time, so it shouldn't have been a hasty digging a hole here, the stone wall here is still quite hard, and he shouldn't be able to do it in a short time. Devany gave her rare opinion, not as completely unfocused as before.

Elizabeth nodded after hearing this, and felt that what the two men said made sense, so she first asked Karna, "Is there any injury on the person you just saw?"

"I didn't look closely, but there was no blood at the entrance or edges, so I guess even if he did, it wouldn't be a serious injury. Karna shook his head.

Elizabeth nodded thoughtfully.

"The sub-elf's physical fitness is much better than that of humans, and judging from the fact that he can't walk for a week, it is possible that the danger at some point mentioned by Muen before is not the physical danger, but the danger to ...... Anyway, the danger in the spiritual or magical circuit, I personally think that it should be more likely to give people a mental impact. "Elizabeth began to show her strong overall quality, which can be said to be worthy of her family's title and heritage.

"But what Mu En just said is also very reasonable, combined with what Karna said before, I think he should have explored all the surrounding areas, but found that the only exit was a monster that he couldn't defeat, so he had no choice but to wait here for death. ”

Mu En nodded, judging from the map, there seemed to be no room around this for him to explore.

"The small secret realm is not too big, no matter how complicated it is, so I think it's likely that the location of that monster is the exit. Mu En added.

"Then let's rest in place now, or open a cave in a higher place, and then wait and see what the thing is that can be feared. Elizabeth decided.

Mu En nodded in approval.

At this time, in Monroe Province, a grand butler of Monroe came to greet the magister from the tower, and the magister who studied space magic was particularly precious under the deliberate suppression of the empire, so Duke Monroe also gave corresponding respect.

Chamberlain was so thoughtful that it was difficult to tell how old he was from his countenance, but he always had a charming smile.

Although it is true that the word charming to describe a man can make a difference, it does make people feel this way when they see him, and they are clearly not powdered, but they are still incredibly beautiful.

When he walked in the provincial capital and saw a few magicians wearing black crow robes, his brows furrowed, and he had some bad premonitions.
