Chapter 65: The Labyrinth (Part II)

The labyrinth in "Skyware" is a world derived from the aggregation and patchwork of different godhead fragments, and because the combination of godhead fragments is different, these derived worlds are also strange.

And when someone really clears the labyrinth, the cleared labyrinth will collapse directly, and then the aggregates of Godhead fragments will also collapse into independent fragments, and finally they will merge with other Godhead fragments after a few years and then derive a new labyrinth.

The types of mazes in Skyware are different, and the methods of clearing the level are also different, and some even can't be cleared at all. Usually when someone actually clears a labyrinth, then they will be rewarded with a lot of money, whether it is equipment, skills, or even valuable talents.

However, although the rewards are rich, the difficulty and danger of the maze are recognized by "Skyware", although you can retreat and exit at any time after entering the maze, but there is still a very high probability of unfortunate death during the battle or during the exploration.

But players who don't die still enjoy challenging the maze. However, Wang Xiaoyu, the maze of "Tianyu", has only challenged a limited number of times during his lifetime, not because Wang Xiaoyu doesn't want to challenge, but because the number of mazes is still too small compared to the number of players.

Each challenge to the maze can only enter a wave of people, although the vast majority of challenges will not be successful, after they exit the maze will also repair itself to let others enter again, but the repair time is generally relatively long, depending on the degree of destruction of the maze, as short as a few days or more than ten days.

Therefore, Wang Xiaoyu basically can't line up, and if he wants to find a new maze in the wild to challenge, it is obviously impossible with his luck during his lifetime, so the place where Wang Xiaoyu hones his skills is usually in the player's exclusive dungeon.

……

Among the only mazes that Wang Xiaoyu has challenged, Wang Xiaoyu hates the most are those mazes that are intelligent and require a little luck.

Because Wang Xiaoyu is not very good at this kind of maze, and the wisdom type of maze is actually not very dangerous. For example, in puzzle-solving mazes, the maze challenger may encounter a puzzle in the middle that cannot be solved and get stuck, and a small number of challengers will be killed by the puzzle because of the wrong way to solve the puzzle.

The two puzzle-solving mazes that Wang Xiaoyu experienced before his death were inexplicably killed by a trap that suddenly appeared in the middle of the way, so Wang Xiaoyu has a natural aversion to intelligent mazes.

Of course, these puzzles, adventures...... The maze is always a minority, and the vast majority of it is a battle type maze that is constantly fighting and then challenged.

And this maze type discovered by red-headed crickets, shaped like a bottomless crypt, Wang Xiaoyu happened to know, and it was one of the mazes of the battle type - the dungeon maze.

As the name suggests, the challenge rules of the dungeon maze are very similar to those in some other games, the dungeon maze is divided into multiple layers, the lower the number of layers, the more difficult it is, but the rewards after challenging that layer will also be richer, and the maze will also be cleared after the challenge completes the last layer.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Xiaoyu can confidently pass this dungeon, because this maze is purely combat-based, and with the warrior-level [Heavy Knight Form], he came to the mortal-level maze as if he was cheating.

……

……

Wang Xiaoyu, who jumped into the pit, regained consciousness in the darkness, his feet seemed to be slippery rocks, and the sound of water droplets came from not far away from time to time, which should be a cave-like location. The temperature here is neither hot nor cold, but there is no wind, and Wang Xiaoyu smells a sour smell slightly......

It was also at this time that a unique piece of information came to Wang Xiaoyu's mind, which was information about this labyrinth. Unlike Wang Xiaoyu, who viewed the information of the maze through the game panel before his death, the basic information and customs clearance methods of the maze here were directly transmitted to his mind in a unique way.

The type of maze is the same as what Wang Xiaoyu confirmed before, it is a dungeon maze. There are a total of 7 layers in this maze, and as long as Wang Xiaoyu defeats the master of the maze on the 7th floor, he will be able to clear this maze.

The information of the maze indicates that the rewards of the first 5 layers of the maze have been claimed, and only the 6th and last 7th floors have not been claimed.

Thinking of the stone monument erected by the elves outside this labyrinth and the elven words on the stone pillars that have been eroded by the rain and somewhat blurred, Wang Xiaoyu speculated that this labyrinth should have existed for a long time, and it is very likely that this labyrinth once flourished for a while, and there should be many elves who have challenged here.

……

"Big brother, I can't see ...... with my eyes" The red-headed cricket suddenly made a sound, and then it used its head to push Wang Xiaoyu, who was thinking about the information of this maze.

Wang Xiaoyu turned his head suspiciously, and also found a little abnormality, stopped sorting out the information about the maze in his mind, Wang Xiaoyu activated the skill [Infrared Perception], and the sight of infrared perception was calm without any ups and downs, there seemed to be no abnormality, but it was precisely this without a trace of abnormality that was the biggest abnormality.

In fact, Wang Xiaoyu's [infrared perception] can show the difference even if the difference in heat is not very high, but Wang Xiaoyu's [infrared perception] vision at this time is still calm, and there is no difference in temperature in front of his eyes.

Wang Xiaoyu showed an even more puzzled expression, and then began to use the skill [Frost Missile], and the [Frost Missile] that emitted an icy aura condensed on the top of Wang Xiaoyu's head, but there was no ice-blue magic halo that could normally be emitted.

"Sure enough, the sight or light in this maze is gone, but... The system panel can still be seen......" Wang Xiaoyu said as he canceled the half-condensed [Frost Missile] above his head, and then Wang Xiaoyu tried to exhale his system panel.

Wang Xiaoyu casually flipped through his system panel a few times, and then closed it, and it was at this time that the sound of the red-headed cricket came out again.

"Big brother, there are enemies!"

Wang Xiaoyu nodded, he also heard the sound of mucus wriggling not far away, it should be the monster in this dungeon maze.

【Ultrasound】Activate!

With the combination of Wang Xiaoyu's [Ultrasound] and passive skill [Ultrasonic Perception], although there was no light, the surrounding terrain and the monster that had just emitted the sound of mucus wriggling were also detected by his [Ultrasound].

As Wang Xiaoyu speculated, the first layer of this dungeon labyrinth was a karst cave, 5 meters wide and 2 meters high, slightly curved, and the ground was very uneven.

And the monsters that made sounds before were more diluted than slimes and similar gelatinous monsters were also detected by Wang Xiaoyu, and they were sticky monsters about the same size as slimes, and the sour taste was also emitted by the bodies of these monsters.

Monster: Small Slime (Mortal)

Grade: 7

Combat effectiveness: 1.1

At this moment, there were more than a dozen such slime monsters around Wang Xiaoyu, slowly crawling towards him at a speed similar to that of a snail......

……

Wang Xiaoyu shook his head slowly, when the problem of losing his vision due to darkness was solved, the difficulty of this maze was reduced by more than a little, these snail-like moving slime monsters were too weak.

It didn't take long for Wang Xiaoyu to kill and eat these slime monsters through the [Frost Missile], and then walked forward along the cave......
