This is a secluded, unvisited empty hall for a long time, no ornate decoration, no exquisite sculptures, except for the eight huge stone pillars that stand on both sides of the hall, as if the dead silence and darkness after night fall are the only main tone here, but unlike the general sense of "abandoned land", this hall is not clean except for the large pieces of rubble and dust scattered under the round holes in the ceiling, the main hall and the only corridor leading to the outside world are not spotless, but they are also clean. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But soon, this hard-won "cleanness" will also be gone.

"Boom... A deafening loud bang resounded throughout the hall, and a huge black ball with incredible speed slammed into the hall along the round hole in the ceiling of the hall, and under the terrifying kinetic energy, the originally hard floor of the hall seemed to have turned into a delicate tofu skin, and was suddenly smashed out of a huge hole by the black ball, and with this hole, there were large pieces of rubble and a huge smoke screen that swept the entire hall.

All of a sudden, a large amount of rubble flew up and down in the smoke screen, smashing the stone pillars and walls on the side into small pits, and even embedded in the wall, but it was also thanks to the fact that there are few people here, if these rubbles really hurt people, even if Alice in the black ball did not deliberately do it, she would definitely not be able to run her lawsuit.

When the dust settled in the entire hall, the pitch-black ball also reappeared from the smoke screen, but it was probably the price of making a mess of the entire hall, and the image of the ball was no longer as beautiful as it was at its beginning, and the part that touched the ground was actually cracked directly from the center due to the violent impact, and at the same time, black gas continued to be emitted from the crack.

The black gas bubbled silently, gradually dissipating into the air, and the ball was like a dead thing, poking motionless in place, without sound or movement.

However, as the black gas overflow time extended, the volume of the pitch-black ball was gradually shrinking, and finally, the contents of the snow hidden in it were revealed.

A little white-haired girl who fell into a deep sleep like a picture scroll.

And the time is not much, the girl's eyes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened, and the eyes that had already turned into magic pupils looked around in a daze like a soul, and suddenly widened, and at the same time the girl's face became very ugly, after standing up and holding on to the wall, the girl covered her mouth and nose.

"Whew。。。。。 ”

But the mouthful of something that didn't know what to do didn't come out of it didn't come out after all.

Holding back the constant vomiting sensation in her abdomen, Alice lay flat in place, staring at her unfocused eyes, looking at the round hole above her head in a daze, trying to reorganize her thoughts, but unfortunately, the violent impact just now was obviously beyond the range she could bear without injury now, although Alice did not suffer any external injuries thanks to the blessing of the shock absorbing ball that was urgently made, but the shock that could not be completely reduced still made her suffer enough.

The huge feeling of dizziness and the constant cramping in her abdomen constantly interfered with her nerves, not only making it impossible to regain concentration for a short time, but also making it impossible for her to act as she wanted.

Changed to an ordinary person, even if such an injury was lucky enough to save a life, but in the future, the IQ will basically be on the same level as the mentally handicapped, but Alice, who is a demon, is obviously not among them, after a short recovery, the vomiting sensation in her chest and abdomen gradually lessened, and her brain was reactivated.

"It's really... It's a little too exciting, and this kid really dug a deep enough hole. ”

With a long exhale, rubbing her head, which was still a little wrong, Alice leaned against the wall and slowly stood up, recalling the feeling of her whole consciousness flying into the sky the moment she landed, Alice said that she really didn't want to try a second time.

However, compared to her, Ying's situation is much better, as a pure energy life, Ying originally had a certain degree of resistance to physical attacks, plus she hid in Alice's earrings before landing, the impact of this fall on Ying can be said to be almost minimal.

"Alice-sama, how do you feel... Ying, who reappeared from the earrings, still occupied the "special seat" on Alice's shoulder, and looked at Alice's obviously unhappy face with some uneasiness.

"Is it better? ”

"What else can I do... It's uncomfortable. Coughing slightly, Alice leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths. "But it's okay, it will be fine in a while, by the way, can Ying still survey the terrain around here as she did before?"

"No problem. After receiving Alice's reply, Ying was visibly relieved.

She patted her chest lightly, closed her eyes at the same time, and the huge spiritual power hidden deep in her mind reappeared, and began to radiate to the entire hall and the corridors that connected the hall in the form of probing magic, and in a short time, a screen of light that shimmered green took over the upper right position in Alice's line of sight.

"Thanks to you. Alice squeezed a smile from the corner of her mouth with a little difficulty, and nodded to Ying.

Although I haven't seen the specific content yet, the appearance of just the light screen undoubtedly makes Alice feel a lot more at ease, because even if Alice hasn't gone to any strange places now, even the slightly secluded hall in front of her is just the underground building of the academy library, but being in a completely unfamiliar environment still makes Alice feel a little uneasy, plus the map Suzune gave her is not as detailed as Ying's minimap.

After resting again, Alice's body was also much more comfortable, the pitch-black armor was dressed again, and the huge battle axe reappeared in her hand.

Picking up the weapon in her hand, Alice looked at the hole above her head where she had fallen, and then at Ying who was sitting on her shoulder.

"So, now look for a chance to settle accounts with that kid from Lingyu... By the way, take a look at that guy from Lixia. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Sure enough... I can't reach the round hole above my head. ”

In the hall, Alice was shaking a black flying claw with a total length of six or seven meters in her hand, and kept throwing it to the edge of the round hole above her head, hoping to go directly to the first floor of the library and find the elevator that could be easily found on the first floor.

However, the height of the underground hall of the library was unexpectedly high, and the tools that Alice had condensed with all her might couldn't reach the target at all, not to mention, even if she calculated the position and jumped up to throw it, it was still about two or three meters away.

After a few simple attempts, Alice also gave up the idea of "going upstairs and taking the elevator directly", after all, no matter how powerful a magic is, the extent to which it can be achieved is also subject to the user's own talent and the limit of the magic itself, and with Alice's current magic ability, she still can't make the legendary forty-meter broadsword.

But if Alice's ability to manipulate magic could be taken to the next level, she might be able to do it.

"But since there is no way to go upstairs directly, I can only do what I originally planned. The hook in her hand quickly dissipated into pure magic and dissipated into the air, and Alice inadvertently wrapped her fingers around the ends of her hair that were scattered over her shoulders, carefully scerifying the small map given by Ying, looking for a way to the upper level.

However, it was okay not to look at it, but when Alice really began to carefully identify the map given by Ying, she was completely dumbfounded.

Because the so-called topography given in this map does not divide the entire area into large and small rooms like a normal building plan, the thick solid lines that represent the walls are not boxy to delineate the scope of the rooms, but divide the entire drawing into a large number of slender alleys that zigzag like snakes.

The alleys are criss-crossed, and the intricate lines are intertwined, like a large ball of hairballs that are entwined, and Alice is now located on the edge of the whole hairball, and it is also the only area that covers a large area of the whole hairball.

And if you want to follow the corridor drawn by the line to find the staircase leading to the upper floor in the center of the map, it seems that there are many paths at first glance, but a normal person can figure out that among the countless possibilities, there is only one path that can really lead to the end.

"So... In order to.. Say.. Looking back and forth at the map in front of her and the exit at the other end of the hall, while temporarily putting aside the huge hairball that was almost dizzy, Alice tilted her head that was about to burn out from overheating, a silver hair stuck to the corner of her mouth, stared at the slightly congested magic pupils, and looked at Miss Ying who was standing on her shoulder.

"Are we probably in a giant labyrinth now?"

"It should be... At this time, Ying looked at Alice and was a little afraid to speak, and her tone became a little timid, although she didn't do anything wrong at all, but her confidence was a little lacking for some reason.

I don't know if it's because of the impact just now.,Or if the maze in front of them is too brain-burning.,Now Alice doesn't look as kind as usual.,But it looks a little.。。。 Irascible.

"And the place where we fell seems to be the end of the entire labyrinth.,There's no other way to go back to the upper floor.,There's no other way to get back to the upper floor.。。。。 ”

"Only back to the beginning?" answered the grumpy Alice.

"Yes... That's probably it, after all, it seems to me that the staircase from the basement to the first floor of the library is only there. Ying coughed lightly, then nodded, and moved the minimap back in front of Alice as if encouraging Alice, and the tone was a little louder than before.

"And Lord Alice, although this maze may seem difficult, it is easy to find the way back from the end of the maze game, and we can also see a bird's-eye view of the entire maze, as long as we draw the correct route and follow the route, we will definitely not go wrong. ”

"Okay. It looks like that's all it can do. ”

After being silent for about three or four minutes, Alice finally sighed, returned to her usual appearance, reluctantly sat down again, looked at the dense maze diagram in front of her, and began to work with Ying to identify the correct route for the "return trip".

Twenty minutes later, however.

"No, I'll go to his labyrinth and see me smash through these rotten stones. After experiencing a large number of failed experimental routes, Alice, who was already angry, could no longer bear it, and stood up freely, the battle axe in her hand appeared almost at the same time, and rushed towards the stone wall not far away.

"Useless Lord Alice, didn't you already test it just now?" grabbed Alice's pointed ears and didn't let go, and lay down in Alice's ear, screaming constantly.

"These walls are also imposing defensive magic similar to the outer walls of the library, and Lord Alice, even if you smash through one wall, there are still a lot of magic walls waiting for you behind you!"

"Then what do you say... "When... The tomahawk fell to the ground, and Alice knelt down directly on the spot, although it was not to the extent of being angry and crying, but at this moment Alice still felt uncomfortable because she felt her powerlessness.

"Lord Alice, can detect the terrain and find a way out... The force of both hands grabbing Alice's ears was unusually small, and Ying lowered her head, and her little feet kicked Alice's clothes on the shoulders with some loss. "It's not the same thing at all. ”

"Okay... Alice's eyes rolled upwards, staring at the huge round hole above her head, completely ignoring her image, and she lay down on the ground in the position she had just sat on.

"Then I'll just lie here and be a waste demon.,Anyway, I just can't play this pure maze game.。。。 ”

"Don't give up, Lord Alice. Lixia is still waiting for you to pick her up. Ying, who had lost her seat due to her posture, was standing on Alice's chest at this time, constantly encouraging Alice, but it seemed that it had little effect.

"Then what do you say, you can't find the way at all. Alice, who was in a wasted mode, lay motionless on the ground.

However, even Ying, who was an encourager, was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

"You see... Alice lay where she was, muttering quietly, but although Alice looked like she was about to give up, she was secretly thinking about how to get out of this hellish place.

And the current waste mode is just for show, to make Ying, who is also very nervous, feel more relaxed for a while.

But then again, the underground labyrinth of the library is really brain-burning, and although Alice doesn't have a strong feeling of wanting to play tricks, there are still some of them.

However, just when Alice was lying on the ground, still secretly trying to fold, the position of her left shoulder was hot for no reason, and at the same time, a thumb-sized pale golden ball of light suddenly flew out of Alice's neckline, and did not move to the only exit of the hall under the blank gaze of Alice and Ying, but slowly moved to a very inconspicuous corner on the other side of the hall, and then... Got through the past.

"This... What's that?!"
