Chapter 66: Customs Clearance (I)

The small slime monsters on the first floor of the maze are really weak, and although they have 1 point of combat power, their speed is too slow.

In fact, these slime monsters can't even beat the red-headed crickets, Wang Xiaoyu observed that the red-headed crickets were eating the bodies of the living slime monsters when he was using [ultrasound], and the slime monsters were powerless to resist at all, they wanted to move their gummy bodies to swallow the red-headed crickets, but they couldn't do it at all, because their movements were too slow.

……

Using the [Ultrasound] ability, Wang Xiaoyu kept squirming forward in this rugged cave.

Although [Ultrasound] can't clearly detect the distant scene, the distance to test this cave is still more than enough, according to the detection of [Ultrasound], the first layer of this maze is only less than 200 meters away, which is not very far.

However, Wang Xiaoyu felt a little unhappy at this time, because he had become accustomed to moving with silk threads recently, so he used the feet and limbs of his body and suction cups to move only to find that his speed was too slow. Although he could have hunched his body and rushed forward, it would be too much of a drain on his physical strength.

In fact, the two-meter-high wall of the cave can be said to be an excellent distance for Wang Xiaoyu's jet silk thread to move, but unfortunately the wall here is very slippery, and the silk thread that Wang Xiaoyu spits out can't stick at all.

Moving forward slowly, Wang Xiaoyu finally came to the end of the first layer after Wang Xiaoyu and the red-headed cricket killed and ate more than 30 small slime monsters.

There are no Estate Guardians here, as as with all Dungeon Labyrinths, they will not be resurrected by the Labyrinth's self-healing as long as they are killed.

Wang Xiaoyu didn't think too much about it, after all, it was just a mortal-level maze, although he could get rewards for defeating guardians of all levels, but the reward was definitely pitiful, and it might be a small evolution compared to him, what Wang Xiaoyu really wanted was the reward for clearing this maze.

Wang Xiaoyu moved to the bottomless pit he had detected with [ultrasound], which should be the entrance from the first layer of the maze to the second floor, Wang Xiaoyu twisted the insect body and then jumped directly with the red-headed cricket lying on his back......

However, as soon as he jumped, after feeling a layer of film obstructing him, the front half of Wang Xiaoyu's body immediately touched the somewhat inclined ground, and Wang Xiaoyu also understood that it was the special film at the entrance that hindered the transmission of [ultrasound], which made him unable to use [ultrasound] to perceive the movement of the second layer.

……

Sending out [ultrasound] again, Wang Xiaoyu felt the situation around him and climbed down, the first layer and the second floor were actually connected to a ramp similar to steps, and Wang Xiaoyu quickly moved down.

Carefully use [ultrasound] to perceive the situation on the second layer of the maze, the same as the first layer, the scene of the second layer of the maze is still a slippery cave, and there is still no light here, the width and height of the cave are about the same as the first layer, but the cave here is more winding than the first layer, but for Wang Xiaoyu, who has [ultrasonic perception] and will not lose his bearing, there is no obvious difference between this and the first layer.

The slime monster on the second layer was quickly observed by Wang Xiaoyu with [Exploration Technique].

Monster: Small Slime (Mortal)

Grade: 10

Combat effectiveness: 1.9

The slime monster on the second layer is larger than the first layer, and its speed is obviously much higher than the snail-like movement of the slime monster on the first layer, but the speed is still very slow, and it is still no threat to Wang Xiaoyu.

From time to time, it transforms into [Heavy Knight Form] to release [Primary Frost Fighting Energy], or directly uses [Frost Missile]. Wang Xiaoyu froze the slime monsters into a semi-solid form similar to ice cream, and then ate them.

In fact, for Wang Xiaoyu, this is not only like ice cream in shape, Wang Xiaoyu actually eats the body of these slime monsters is also the same flavor as ice cream, and it is also creamy, just like Wang Xiaoyu ate slimes like eating cream pudding before.

In short, Wang Xiaoyu's taste of insects is obviously different from that of humans, and the more obvious thing is that some delicious fruits on the tree are only the same taste as ordinary leaves, and they are not even as delicious as ordinary insects.

……

Killing slime monsters and eating ice cream flavored slime monsters all the way, Wang Xiaoyu continued to advance forward, and after killing and eating more than 40 slime monsters, Wang Xiaoyu reached the third layer of the seven-layer maze.

The size of the third layer of slime monsters has increased again, and its combat power has reached 3.1, and its overall strength has improved again, but it still poses no threat to Wang Xiaoyu.

However, there was a problem in the third layer of the maze that made Wang Xiaoyu slightly entangled, that is, there was a fork in the cave in his [Ultrasonic Perception], that is, he currently has two paths, and only one of these two roads can reach the entrance of the fourth layer.

Because the effective distance of [ultrasound] is very limited, Wang Xiaoyu doesn't know which way is the right one.

Wang Xiaoyu was caught in a choice, although no matter which way to go first, Wang Xiaoyu could find a way to the fourth layer in the end, but Wang Xiaoyu wanted to save time as much as possible.

Soon Wang Xiaoyu came up with a way, in fact, in the face of this kind of situation that requires a choice, there is nothing better than asking the red-headed cricket, which can guess the existence of more than 98 times on average 100 heads of leaves falling downward.

"Redhead, which way do I need to go to the fourth floor of this labyrinth?" Wang Xiaoyu asked the red-headed cricket next to him.

"Big brother, to the right."

"Well, in that case, let's go to the left first." Wang Xiaoyu nodded and said, and then began to move towards the cave passage on the left side.

Because only in this way can Wang Xiaoyu kill and eat the slime monster in this layer of the maze in the shortest possible time before going to the fourth layer, and Wang Xiaoyu, the slime monster here, doesn't want to waste it.

……

I couldn't feel the passage of time in the dark cave, and I didn't know how long it had been before Wang Xiaoyu reached the fourth layer.

The fourth layer is the same as the third layer, it is still two bifurcated caves, Wang Xiaoyu still uses the old method to ask the red cricket to move forward, the small slime monster here has become a medium-sized slime monster, and the combat power has also become 5, but Wang Xiaoyu can still easily deal with it.

When Wang Xiaoyu continued to eat here, that is, when he was about to reach the fifth layer, Wang Xiaoyu's level was successfully upgraded to level 12, and his body size became larger again.

Then Wang Xiaoyu, who continued to advance, reached the fifth layer, and the combat power of the slime monster on the fifth layer increased to 8, but Wang Xiaoyu was still able to deal with it easily. In terms of terrain, there are 3 forks here, not only that, but there are some large craters about 2 meters deep on the ground, but this is still not a problem for Wang Xiaoyu, who can perceive everything here.

The maze on the fifth layer is much larger than the fourth layer, but it can't withstand Wang Xiaoyu's predation, and as time passes, the slime monster on the fifth layer is also cleaned up by Wang Xiaoyu.

Wang Xiaoyu didn't know the specific time spent killing and eating the slime monster here, but Wang Xiaoyu felt that the overall time had been a few days.

Without thinking much about it, because clearing this maze had nothing to do with how much time it took him, Wang Xiaoyu finally stepped into the entrance of the sixth layer of the maze that was not successfully challenged by anyone.
