Draenor turned his head to look at the end of the maze on either side, and it was at least a dozen kilometers away from the road that could be seen by the naked eye, and it was obvious that it would take a lot of time to get around it.

Although the labyrinth is winding, the entire structure of the sand dunes is revealed, and no matter how complex it is, it is still possible to cross it to reach the other side.

"How?" He stretched his legs and moved his stiff waist, turning to Vekiriko and asked.

"It seems that there is no other way to take a shortcut than through this labyrinth." Vicky said as she patted the dust off her saddle.

The exact size of the labyrinth is unknown, but it can be seen that it is composed of three floors of flat surfaces, and in addition to the entrance, the most noticeable thing is the tall tower standing in the center.

Although the road near the entrance is intricate, the road to the back end of the exit is much clearer, and it seems that if you can find a way to get to the center near the tower, it is still possible to reach the exit.

But the problem is the distance from the entrance to the central tower, which occupies half of the labyrinth, and the road is not at all irregular.

If you had a finger and a pencil, it would not be difficult to draw a map of the maze in a short time, but it is clear that it will not work now.

Vicilico fell into deep thought, her eyes suddenly flashing with highlights, as if she had some kind of idea.

She turned and climbed into Jeanne's camel saddle, took a piece of blood-stained antelope meat from the meat drying rack, and took the remaining piece of liver from the saddle bag, and placed it on the sand to make a cut with her spear.

Draenor was about to open his mouth to ask her what she was going to do, but after a moment of thought he simply kept his mouth shut, he didn't want to show his lack of knowledge again. And after being together for so long, he wouldn't be surprised that no matter what strange things Vekily could do.

Vikily took out a rock-like object, wrapped it in a cloth and put it back in the saddlebag, then crushed the bitter gall and spread it evenly on the fresh meat and brought it to Jeanne, "The time has come to test your sense of smell, how long can you remember this smell?" ”

The bitter smell of the bile almost choked Jeanna with tears, and she quickly frowned and stepped back, pointing to the piece of fresh meat and saying, "Miss Vicky, please don't do this!" I can smell it from miles away! ”

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, but you said 'a few kilometers away', right?" She smiled wryly and took the fresh meat behind her back, turned to look at the tower in the center of the maze and measured it with her fingers.

"Cooper, how long have you prepared this thin thread?" She closed one eye and carefully calculated the distance to the tower.

"Not much, the thread was woven from antelope wool by the Licos, and it is more than a hundred meters long." Cooper tucked his fingers into his beard and shook it, and countless pieces of grit fell from his chest, slowly spreading out like a cloud.

Draenor didn't know what Viklico was planning, only to see that she tied the piece of meat to the handle with a thin thread. She held the hourglass wrapped in a thin thread in her hand, pulled the metal ring on the side, and the scarlet liquid in the hourglass was pumped into the hollow barrel of the "Thorn Bird" along the thin wire.

The blood of the sheep remaining in the hourglass was drawn along the thin thread, and the spear gradually turned red and shiny as if it had tasted the taste of blood.

When enough heat was emitted from the hilt, Vikiriko raised her arm and threw the spear into the air.

The spear roared like a falcon, snapping the thin thread that connected to the hourglass. After flying for about two kilometers, the spearhead began to slowly deflect downwards and fall, and along with the fresh meat, it got stuck in the stone crevice at the lower end of the tower.

Although the length of the labyrinth was far less than the width, the distance from the foot to the tower was at least two thousand meters in a straight line, and Draenor stared at Vikiriko standing in place with surprised eyes, even if it was the Blood Sect, such a powerful force was really a bit exaggerated.

"Why are you looking at me stupidly? It's not my credit, although I don't know what the principle is, but as long as the spear sucks blood, it bursts with great power. Looks like I'm right, the distance is just right. ”

Vikirico clapped her hands, put the empty hourglass back in her backpack, turned and walked over to Jeanne and tugged at her sleeve, "Can you smell it from this distance?" ”

Jeanne closed her eyes, took a few steps forward, sniffed carefully for a moment, and then put her finger against the tip of her nose and replied, "It's a little blurry, but if you get closer, it should be fine." ”

The smell of bile in the air made it easy for the wolf Licors to track down the scent of their prey.

Could it be that Vikli was so ruthless that she threw her spear and pieces of flesh at the tower just to test Jeanne's sense of smell?

Draenor pondered that the spear was the only weapon Wickely had left, and she couldn't have spent so much effort on a prank.

"Ahh So that's it! We can rely on Miss Jeanna's sense of smell to make our way through the maze and get to the bottom of the tower, so we can find the exit quickly, right!? Cooper shouted in realization, and Draenor had just thought about it.

"That's right, and we must go under the tower, or my spear will become antique like these ruins!" Vicchirico snapped her fingers in reply, then licked her index finger and held it in the air, carefully noticing the direction of the wind.

"As expected, it's mostly a southeasterly wind blowing now, and the smell of bile will fill the road at the front of the labyrinth from under the tower. While the wind hasn't changed, we have to act quickly! As she spoke, she turned and slipped into the saddle of her camel, and the group hurriedly mounted their camels and walked down the sloping dunes.

The walls stood like the arms of giants in the desert, surrounded by dust from the storm. The downhill sand toppled like a dustpan toward the wall, and Cooper rode his camel without taking two steps before he felt the front sink suddenly, and the man and the camel rolled downward.

"Damn, it's all gone...... I'm fine! Take your time! He quickly got up to catch the blankets, kettles, and food that were sliding down, and looked up to the others.

It seems that the downhill slope is more cautious, the newly piled up sand slope is very loose, and if you are not careful, you may slide down like Cooper.

Draeno tugged at the reins, slowly moving down the zigzag path of Cooper's slide. Jeanne constantly adjusts her weight behind her so that she doesn't lean too much and cause the camel to slip.

The caravan finally reached the perimeter of the building, and the full view of the city wall was already in view.

A granite gate with a golden ratio stands in the center of the city wall, and the tall arches support the geometric stone slabs, which are somewhat weather-eroded, but are not difficult to see the unique architecture of the ancient Greek civilization.

Vicilico narrowed her eyes and looked closely at the faint reliefs on the stone pillars, "This seems to be Greek's text?" Is it pronounced like this in the 'Labyrinth of Minos', built by ...... 'Daedalus'? She struggled to piece together the unfamiliar words, and the Greek script was arguably the most difficult science in the world to master, and there was no one!

"You're right, this is the Labyrinth of Minoan mentioned in the legend of Ancient Greck, the most famous masterpiece of Daedalus, the father of Icarus." Draenor took a closer look at the shattered relief.

The Grek civilization was once a shining star on the continent of Aurorban, and its mythology has long been a household name as a literary reading. Although he could not read Greek fluently, as a Western Canaaniite, those myths and stories had long been imprinted in Draenor's mind.

"Daedalus was a great architect and a very brilliant sculptor. He made this labyrinth for him in order to repay the kindness of King Minos...... That's all I can remember. Draenor pressed his finger to his forehead, carefully combing through the fragments of memories in his mind.

"I don't know much about the names you mentioned, but they seem to be pretty much the same as I guessed...... Isn't there any monster mentioned in this myth? "Although Vicilico is very knowledgeable, she only knows a little about the myths and stories of civilizations in other continents. Instead, she paid more attention to the legend of the "bull-headed monster" that was the deepest in her memory.

"There is a myth of a monster that was trapped in a labyrinth by Minos and fed on sacrificial virgins, and was finally defeated by the illegitimate son of a king...... But that's just a myth, and people like to make up stories to add mystery to things. ”

Draenor shrugged his shoulders, he had grown tired of hearing these stories more than a decade ago, and he was clearly past the age of interest in mythological stories. But Viklico, who was beside her, leaned over with glowing eyes, and she clenched her hands into fists against her mouth, listening with relish like a child.

"Defeated? How to beat it? Tell me about it! She frowned and urged Draenor.

This made him so depressed that he had nothing to say, although he still looked like a child, but after all, Vekily was also an adult blood sect in his hundreds, could it be that the myths and legends of the other continent were so worth savoring?

"Vicky! Why don't you just move a chair and sit down and listen to the blue-haired boy? Hurry up and get me moving! I don't want to spend the night in a place like this! Cooper grabbed Viklico's arm and dragged her to the entrance of the labyrinth.

Draenor was relieved that if she was really pestering her to tell the story, it would at least be until the next morning. Vickyrico shook off Cooper's arm, rolled over and jumped onto the saddle of the camel, shouting at Draenor, "You have to get out of here, maybe there are traces of the monster in the labyrinth!" ”

Jeanne smiled and tugged at the corner of Draenor's coat to signal that it was time for him to continue on his way. He reached out and grabbed the reins of the camel, looked at Vickyly's dancing back and sighed,

"Everything is good, but I don't look like a centenarian......"
