Chapter 147: Friend or Foe (3)
While Nomaris and Tracy were discussing how Nomaris would return to Dragon Island with the three council representatives sent by Dragon Isle: Paquirio, Tiffany, and Tagros, as well as Viren and Duke Loathing, were discussing how Nomaris would return to Dragon Island in the skies above the island that was already in the Dragon Island's sphere of influence, even in the cold winter, Rosie and Ciel were looking at Jun with a strange expression.
Now an elf, an ocean clan, and an apostle are on the northern border of the Dnomah Empire, which is now the back garden of the Apostles. Everywhere you look, you can see dense apostolic armies or patrols roaming the territory that was formerly part of the Dnomah Empire. If any of the non-apostolic intelligent beings were discovered by them, then unfortunately, it was the ultimate fate of the non-apostolic intelligent beings to be killed or enslaved by the apostles.
However, due to the complicated environment of the Denoma Empire, the Apostles did not occupy the northern part of the empire in the true sense. In the middle of some deserted mountains, deep in the dense forests, far from the apostles' base camp, there were still some resistances. And these resistance forces are not only humans, but also various other races that have already thrived in the human world.
In this vast area, there are many races that the world could not have imagined. Whether it's the mountain wildlings who live on mud, the goblins that live in the deepest part of the forest, the dwarves in the mountains, and even the scattered exiles who run from the Vault Dweller's Hill further north. They were all exiles who fled due to internal strife during the transition period when Vault Dweller's Hill became the Vault Dweller's Empire. And now they have a new name, which is the repatriators. In addition, there are other races that have never even appeared in the eyes of the world, and they should have been hidden forever. But all this was broken with the invasion of the apostles.
Although on the surface, it can be seen that since the apostles invaded the human world, the only race exterminated by the apostles was the elves, and the only countries that were destroyed were the Danmos Empire and the Kingdom of Magellan in the human world, but who knows how many races have been destroyed by the apostles unintentionally or deliberately in the shadows? No one can say clearly, and even the apostles themselves do not know how much blood they have on their hands.
And now Ciel, Leixi, and Jun happen to be trapped in a labyrinth created by a non-human race. "Well, I didn't expect that we weren't caught by those little bastards, but were trapped in it. ”
To say that the apostles are a small mongrel is actually the apostle himself. However, since he was hunted down by the mourning lord and broke away from the apostle, Jun has hated the identity of the apostle from then on. But he also hated all the other races in this human world, and this is where he is very conflicted.
Hill glanced at Jun: "Don't underestimate the other races in the human world, although they don't have a sense of existence compared to the big races, but their ability to continue until now shows that they still have some unknown and particularly powerful abilities." So, don't underestimate them. It's not too scary for us to fall into this trap now, and the fact that we're not in danger so far means they don't want to kill us right now. Otherwise, we would have been dead by now. ”
"What?" Jun grinned at Ciel, "You mean, they're still trying to lock us up for a long time?"
Jun did have a reason to be annoyed now, because this was not so much a trap as a large labyrinth. But there is one thing that makes Jun very confused, that is, because the labyrinth can only trap ordinary people in general, but who are they? Even if you don't mention Lei Xi, the public of this Ocean Clan, just Titi Hill and Jun himself, are among the most powerful beings in the world. Even in the face of the lost lord, Jun now has full confidence to defeat her. And Hill, Hill is even more needless to say, after all, he is one of the two best archery existences in this world. And both of them also have a pair of wings, which is enough to make them fly away. But this time, their wings and their own abilities are completely useless here.
Flying? Of course, they can use their wings to fly into the sky. Indeed, this labyrinth does not have a roof at all, and according to common sense, none of these mazes can have a top, and it seems that it is. But when both Hill and Jun flew into the sky and wanted to leave the labyrinth, they were surprised to find that no matter how high they flew, the obstacles on both sides of the maze stretched as high as they went. Even if I think I can fly out of this human world, I still can't fly out of this labyrinth. After landing, they reluctantly found that they hadn't run far, and were still walking in vain on this pure white corridor made of unknown materials.
Lei Xi also looked around. Unlike Jun's impatience and Ciel's indifference, although Lei Xi hoped that she could leave this maze as soon as possible, Lei Xi did not lose her cool. Although she is not too mature, when she uses her special affinity for water-based magic elements to explore this labyrinth, this makes Lei Xi a little disappointed. "I've just probed with my water magic, and it doesn't seem like it's a labyrinth here. Because, it seems that there is no end to this place at all. ”
"This, princess, can you confirm it?" Jun looked at Lei Xi suspiciously, he had been deliberately ignoring Lei Xi all along. Because Lei Xi is not that kind of powerful instant combat power, more often it can only play a supporting role. Therefore, when Lei Xi said that she had already explored this place herself, it still made Jun a little suspicious.
As Lei Xi's friend, Hill is naturally standing by Lei Xi's side: "Are you suspicious of Lei Xi?"
Jun nodded, not shying away from any questions: "Yes, I doubt it." Since Lei Xi was just a princess of the Sea Clan, I hadn't even heard of her before, and I was very skeptical of her abilities. ”
Lei Xi timidly replied, "But there are a lot of water elements here, so I can explore this place through these water elements. Here, it feels very strange. We can think of this as a very small corridor, but the strange thing is that this corridor is extending infinitely. It's just that as long as we don't move, it doesn't extend, but as soon as we walk, it stretches with our speed. ”
"In other words, how fast we go, how far does this corridor extend?"
Lei Xi nodded: "Yes, my water elementals can clearly tell me that they are actually already all over every area of this corridor, but every time we move, to my water elementals, we are more like we are standing still. In other words, this should be a labyrinth, except that this labyrinth is not used by nature, but by our minds. ”
After finishing speaking, Lei Xi glanced at Hill and Jun with some embarrassment, and added, "Of course, it's just, it's just my own judgment." It is possible that I will make some errors in judgment due to my lack of experience. If that's the case, I apologize and I'm sorry. ”
Hill looked at Lei Xi gently and encouraged: "You are already very good, and Lei Xi, many times you have to trust your own intuition. In terms of affinity for the water element, even the creatures of the entire human world, including those apostles, none of them can be stronger than you. So, don't worry and have faith in yourself. I believe you. Then, Hill turned his head to look at Jun and asked, "What about you?"
Jun hesitated for a moment: "Since you can be sure that this little girl has already found out the situation here, then what else do I have to ponder? And I also feel that something is wrong with the situation, but if this little girl really said that? then what can we do to get out of here? Do we still have to make the master of this labyrinth to appear? If he doesn't show up for years or even decades, then what should we do? Waiting here all the time?"
"No, I think I have a way to get us out of here. ”
"What?" Jun looked at Lei Xi with a surprised expression, and pointed at Lei Xi and said, "You mean, you have a way to let us leave this place? You, you won't be here to comfort us, right?"
Lei Xi's voice was still very slight, but this time she was much more determined than before: "This is a very strange place, you see, this place should be very dry, but I don't know why I can sense the presence of the water element. Then this means that there should be a water source near here, which means that there is a water source outside this labyrinth. And now that I have discovered some new water elements, as well as some of the original water elements that have suddenly disappeared, that is, it means that my water elements can freely enter the outside world here. ”
"Really?" said Jun himself, and he became excited. I didn't expect this Lei Xi to be able to play such a big role at this critical time, and this time, Jun didn't have any uncertainty. Because he knew that this princess from the Sea Clan was not a liar. Jun suddenly grabbed Lei Xi's shoulders and said while shaking, "Then how can we get out now? Tell me, how long have we been stuck here now? It's really boring here, I need freedom, I need new air!"
Hill watched Lei Xi's body involuntarily be shaken by Jun, and used the purple longbow in his hand to swing Jun's hand away, and then shouted angrily, "What are you doing? She's just a girl! If you do this again, I'll shoot your hand off with an arrow!"
Only then did Jun realize his gaffe and sneered: "Calm, calm, Ciel." I did lose my temper just now, I apologize, I apologize. But I'm only doing this because I'm so happy, I didn't expect Princess Leixi to be able to find a way out for us. Why doesn't I get excited about such good news?Princess Leixi, can we find the gap that allows your water elemental to enter and exit? If so, then I can break it!"
Lei Xi rubbed her shoulders, pointed to the corner between the wall and the ground less than fifty meters in front of Jun, and said to Jun: "It's there, if you look closely, you can even see that there are some water stains compared to the rest of this place, but there is no water in the rest of this place." ”
Jun walked to the place Lei Xi pointed to, squatted down to investigate for himself, and sure enough, he saw that the color here was darker than the color of other places. And Jun himself found that very small hole that was not too obvious. "That's you. Jun grinned, then looked at Lei Xi and Ciel, and said, "Yes, you're right, this is it." Now, don't move here, let me break him. ”
"Maybe there could be a better way ... ”
When she saw Jun waving her hand, Lei Xi wanted to stop it, but she was still a step too late. With a terrifying muffled sound, the real sunlight finally shone in. At this time, Lei Xi and Ciel realized that they had been in a dark jungle all along. "Where is this?" Jun who was standing not far away stood blankly, and Mu Ne said, "The labyrinth we were in just now is actually just a small house?"
However, Hill suddenly became nervous: "Go, go! You're not a small house, it's a tomb!"
"What is there to be afraid of in the tomb. Jun looked at Hill with disdain and said, "Isn't it just the tomb of ordinary people, why are you so scared? ”
And Hill has already pulled Leixi and started running, and Leixi was also made wrong by Hill's move, because if this small house is really a tomb, then it looks very ordinary, so what's there to be afraid of? But Hill's next sentence made Leixi panic, and kept reminding Jun to leave quickly when he ran.
"Run! This is the tomb of the evil god of the human world, and the one we just had is not a labyrinth, just a back garden of that evil god! Now, we have broken his back garden, and now he is about to wake up!"
