Chapter 464: Labyrinth
Zhang Heng didn't deliberately avoid the old man, so he directly opened the travel bag in front of the latter and took out the Lego bricks from it.
The things he had to put together this time were not complicated, so it didn't take long, and he soon came to the last step, inserting the [Infinity Block] into it.
The next moment, a brand new drone appeared in his hands.
Zhang Heng controlled the drone to rise, and flew to the top of the maze under the old man's stunned gaze, from here you can clearly see the whole picture of the maze, and the changes that are taking place during the period can also be seen at a glance, Zhang Heng silently calculated the time of each change, trying to plan a road to the center from it, and at the same time bring his own movement speed into it......
In fact, drones appeared as early as the twenties of the last century, but they were basically military at first, or undertook part of the scientific research and mapping tasks, and it was not until about ten years ago that the consumer market was opened, and it was really known and accepted by consumers in recent years.
The old man came to the island more than fifty years ago, and the last person he met was twelve years ago, and the two had never spoken a few words in total, so he had never seen a drone before meeting Zhang Heng.
When he saw the drone rise from Zhang Heng's hand and fly all the way over the maze, his feeling was no less than seeing some supernatural phenomenon, especially after he noticed the image from the remote control in Zhang Heng's hand, and the look on his face was even more shocked.
When Zhang Heng asked him if he could use tools before, his understanding was only on things like ladders, so he didn't care too much, in fact, don't say that Zhang Heng didn't have a ladder, even if he really brought a ladder, he couldn't pass through this labyrinth, because the changes in this labyrinth are not only the movement of those red earth walls, but even the ground under his feet is also flowing slowly, in other words, even if you stand in place, the position will keep changing.
This is also the reason why the old man is not worried about Zhang Heng's use of tools.
However, the drone in front of him was obviously not in his expectations.
With this drone occupying the high point, Zhang Heng is equivalent to directly obtaining a top-down map of the maze, which can observe the results of each change, and can always grasp his position in the maze, which also makes it possible for him to reach the center of the maze without relying on the connection with Jörmungandre.
The old man subconsciously felt that something was wrong with this matter, but then he was a little dazed, not knowing what he should do now, Jörmungadr gave him the order to greet the potential believers on the island in front of the labyrinth, but he did not give him the right to search the body of the potential believers or seize any items.
Moreover, the old man could also see from the scabbard on Zhang Heng's body and the longbow behind him that this young man was different from other people who went to the island before, although he looked polite now, but this does not mean that he would always be so polite, in fact, most of the people on the island can quickly distinguish the identity and occupation of the other party, but for Zhang Heng, he saw it from the first sight, and he is still not sure who the other party is.
So the old man didn't do anything in the end, just stood aside, and let Zhang Heng control the drone to study the maze at high altitude.
Jörmungård and his attendants suffered from the lack of culture, and in fact many of the older gods and goddesses were no longer suitable for modern society.
For example, when Jörmungard built a labyrinth on this island, he definitely didn't expect that one day humans would invent such a thing as a drone, of course, with the development of the times, some of the more enlightened gods will continue to self-regulate with the progress and development of society, such as Chronos whom Zhang Heng met before, who also wore Tang costumes in order to open up the oriental market, of course, the matching is a little nondescript.
Or the existence of the self-proclaimed Einstein suspected god that Zhang Heng encountered in the Apollo copy, the latter was simply born with modern technology, and his power has also grown with the development of science and technology, on the contrary, some ancient gods have been gradually forgotten by mankind with the progress of technology.
However, the situation of Jörmungandre is more special, its name has not been forgotten by the world, Zhang Heng can't even judge whether its power has become weaker or stronger compared to when it was at its peak, because the current entertainment and media are unprecedentedly developed, and its popularity has increased more than in the past.
But the problem with Jörmungård is that in original Norse mythology, it was a monster trapped in the deep sea, and it didn't really come out until Ragnarok, so in today's terms, it belongs to the kind of autistic player who is far away from human society.
Although it has not forgotten to select believers from among humans over the years, it is really not flattering in speed and quantity, after all, only sixteen people have gone to the island in fifty years, which is really too cold, not to mention that it has directly eaten three people, and in the end only three believers have left the island, and it is difficult to say how much its understanding of modern society has improved from such a small number of people, which has led to its labyrinth being built very retro.
About half an hour later, Zhang Heng took back the drone, he tried to simulate it several times, and successfully reached the center of the maze, which took a long and short time, which was mainly related to the uncertainty of the maze change.
But overall, with the field of view opened, the difficulty of this maze has indeed been greatly reduced.
So after waiting for about ten minutes, Zhang Heng released the drone again, and then he finally stepped into the maze himself.
Zhang Heng's movement speed was very fast, and as soon as he entered the maze, he immediately ran, mainly because this maze would change every 90 seconds, so he needed to re-plan his route to the center.
And even for Zhang Heng, it takes time to plan the route, so that the time he can use to move is shorter, so every second of each change gap is extremely precious to Zhang Heng.
With a drone in the sky to make eyes, Zhang Heng's early movement was relatively smooth, and soon there was less than half the distance from the center of the maze, but then, the speed of change of the maze actually accelerated, and the interval between the two changes was shortened to only 60 seconds, which was a new situation that Zhang Heng had not encountered in the previous simulation test, and it was also a challenge for him, because it meant that he had less time to plan routes and move.
Fortunately, the current situation is still under Zhang Heng's control, even if the time is reduced to 60 seconds, he is still moving towards the center of the maze, but at this time, Zhang Heng's heart does have a trace of vigilance, because he is not sure if this time will change as he continues to move forward.
