Chapter 11: What can I eat in the labyrinth?
The maze on this ground is very distinctive, and you can see it very clearly when you look closely. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The almost natural fence walls are topped with thorns, which prevents any creatures from trying to climb on the walls to escape. At the same time, because it is the same color as the grass, it is often difficult to distinguish which side is the fence and which side is the ground.
Under this visual deception, it is believed that many lost creatures will lose their way in it, and it is impossible to even keep spinning in place.
Akai and I walked into this special labyrinth, and what caught our eyes was three forks in the road at once.
The fork in the road on the left is the end at a glance, so I don't think about it at all and just discard it.
Then there are two roads left, one facing forward and one facing right.
"Anyway, the maze rules, it's always right to stick to the wall." I chose the path on the right.
"Yes." Nodding, Akai said approvingly.
Walking towards the right side of the road, we came to the second fork in the road after a few turns. This time, the fork in the road is to the left, but there is a corner where I don't know where it leads.
But the rest of the road leads to a room-like open space.
"Stop!" Akai grabbed me, cowered behind the hedge wall, and slowly poked his head out.
In the small clearing, several wolves were wandering, and behind their scarlet eyes there was a frenzied aura. He was pacing back and forth on the grass with a grumpy attitude.
"What should I do?" I asked Akai whether to attack or dodge, which is a question worth pondering.
After all, once attacked, the noise was sure to alarm all the monsters in the labyrinth. We knew from the beginning that this labyrinth would not be peaceful and quiet, and that monsters would definitely inhabit it.
"Let's go to the right and take a look first, I really can't do it, I can only kill these few quickly, try to be as subtle as possible."
"Okay."
With that, we continued to explore to the right.
Unfortunately, the road on the right diverged, but all the forks were a dead end, and we turned around for a while and then returned here.
Four wolves, after preliminary discussion with Akai, I said that one person will solve the other first.
Immediately, the hot fireball and the cold arrow were ready in an instant.
Rumble! Shout!
Two different sounds, accompanied by the end of the lives of the two rampaging gray wolves.
The remaining two wolves did not care about the death of their companions, and the next moment they rushed towards us.
"Drink!" I let out a clear drink, and [Shockwave] struck, intercepting the two wolves' flying postures in mid-air, and falling to the ground.
Two bows and arrows followed, pinning the two wolves to the ground.
The whole process went smoothly, without hesitation, everything was according to the script・・・・・・
"Obstacles cleared, move on!" I raised my staff.
"I don't know why, I kind of don't want to go through this maze anymore." Behind him came Akai's somewhat listless voice.
I turned my head in confusion and looked at Akai, "What's the matter, this is a rare adventure, cheer up." ”
"There's no way, I've exhausted all my energy in the mine before, and I can't lift my energy here." Akai sighed.
Well, as a mage, I said that my spirit recovered quickly, so I am still very mentally active at the moment, but Akai is different, after the high-intensity battle, it is the physical work of mining. There's no spirit left.
"What then? Aren't we going to explore this labyrinth? "I have a bit of a headache, but it does take a lot of effort to explore the maze.
"Probe a maze of yarn!" Akai poked his finger at the wall of the fence beside him, "This is a plant, a plant, why don't you burn a path for me?" ”
I looked at Akai with disdain, "You have to play according to the rules, boy!" ”
The essence of the maze lies in the intricacies of the routes, the things that will appear on each path you choose, and the sense of accomplishment that you finally get out of the maze after passing all kinds of difficulties and obstacles.
Now you're asking me to break the wall, what's the fuss? Destroying the wall can't be called a maze game, this has become the simplest demolition business, okay?
Apologize to all the architects for their hard work, bastard!
Rumble! This was followed by the sound of burning leaves.
"After all, you still chose to burn the wall, didn't you, you don't want to go through this maze, don't say it's like I don't want to go through the maze, how can you repair it!" Akai pointed at me and laughed.
"Damn, I'm just understanding you."
"No Road Race!"
The wall of the fence was burned through a large hole by flames, and the fire continued to spread towards both sides of the fence wall.
Gradually, a wall of plants was burned away by the raging fire, revealing the blocked path behind it.
Hiss...
As we rested quietly and watched the flames dance, a sound that did not match the creaking of the leaves as they burned came to our ears.
Of course, this is a familiar sound, one that we often hear when we are mining underground, and we have killed quite a few of them.
Spider.
Little green spiders sprang out of the hedges and circled us.
Hedge spiders, which are a species unique to twilight.
"You see, destroying the ecological environment will really be punished, right?" I taunted Akai.
"Your sister, you set this fire."
"Cut, I put it according to your request, at most I am an accomplice."
"・・・・・・ makes a difference, there are no police in this world."
"It doesn't seem to make a difference."
"Hey, they're coming."
"Huh? I'll go, how much is here? I burn, I burn! I'm burning!! ”
In a hurry, although the small spiders are vulnerable, they can trample one to death with one foot, which is simply a pee-level existence compared to those large spiders. However, the ancients mostly bit elephants, and the number of them changed qualitatively.
The end result was that I turned my surroundings into a sea of fire.
"Ehha, burn it, charge it now! Burst the reality! In the midst of the fire, I laughed exaggeratedly.
Akemer silently moved two steps to the side, "Don't tell anyone I know you when you get out・・・・・・"
Ahem, okay, don't play anymore.
Eventually, if we didn't honestly follow the rules of the game, the maze was basically burned beyond recognition. While clearing out a large number of small spiders hidden in it, the chest hidden by the maze on this flat ground was also exposed.
Now it's time to unpack, as always!
It's so fun!
Me: "Happy sister! There is no sense of accomplishment at all! Also, this box is full of garbage and there is nothing to use at all, really big husband? ”
Silk thread (this is acceptable), saddle (no longer needed), bread (enough food to bring and useless to ask for this), wheat (・・・・・・) and so on.
Basically, all four of the boxes we found were similar things.
However, we still found a very special prop.
[Magical Life].
I flipped through the book in my hand, and after some searching, I finally found a note on the heart-shaped object in front of me.
"I'll see." Akai came over, and after half a salary, he exclaimed, "Damn, artifact!" ”
[Magical Life], which can be found in all Labyrinths and Tower chests, can renew the life of a creature when it is dying, free it from the threat of death, and recover from certain injuries in the next few seconds.
[Magical Life] is graded, and four pink first-level [Magical Life] can be combined into a golden second-level [Magical Life], whose healing effect is comparable to that of the legendary golden apple.
A good thing that can save your life at a real critical moment.
After being silent for a while, I gave this [Magical Life] to Akai, after all, Akai's danger factor is much higher than mine, and the successful sneak attack of the Naga Giant Serpent last time was an example, if it wasn't for the quick reaction at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Thank you." Without too many words or pretentiousness, Akai directly accepted this life-saving prop.
[Magical Life] turned into a streamer of light and melted into Akai's heart.
As I watched this scene, I unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and the person also relaxed.
There was no value left in this place to continue exploring, and the next step was to run straight to the location of the Hydra.
The journey has just begun.
