Chapter 27: The Maze
After Zhou Yi rested slightly, he slowly walked out of the cave in the sun, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
Blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, came into view, he took a few steps ahead, and found that the entrance of this cave was halfway up the mountain, and at his feet was a cliff hundreds of meters high.
With a slight smile, he leaped out of the hole, his wings flapping violently, soaring between heaven and earth.
"Side Quest - Soaring Skyrim, completed!"
"Get a reward - Titled Synthesizer!"
Just as Zhou Yi was still soaring freely, Ta Ling's voice sounded, and in a flash, he was sent out of the current slate space.
Zhou Yi stood on the stone slab carved with an eagle and touched his nose unsatisfactorily.
At this time, his attributes had returned to normal, and the eagle's head had returned to its normal human head, and the wings behind him had long since disappeared.
The Chenlong slate next to it slowly disappeared, and a straight path appeared in front of the eagle slate, with no end in sight, as if it was a road to the end of the world.
If you look closely, the road is actually paved with black wood block-like material.
Zhou Yi stepped on this road, and there was still an endless void on both sides of the road, and he followed the route and kept moving forward.
After walking for about ten minutes, a fog slowly appeared around me, and the further I went, the thicker the fog became, and soon I couldn't see the road under my feet.
He had to slow down, for fear that the road under his feet would suddenly take a sharp turn or something, and if he accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the bottomless abyss below, he would definitely die without a place to be buried!
Fortunately, Taling hadn't had any bad taste to this point, and after about another hour of walking, the road was straight.
Through the fog, which was not thick or thin, Zhou Yi vaguely saw a piece of land in front of him, and he walked for a few more minutes, and the outline of the land became more and more obvious.
Soon, he came to the end of the road at his feet, and a piece of land appeared in front of him.
Zhou Yi crossed the mist and stepped on this land, and the voice of Ta Ling came as promised.
"Mission 1, completed!"
"Mission 2, start the timer!"
Just on the upper right side of Zhou Yi's retina, a row of blood-red numbers showing the time kept passing, 59:59, 59:58, 59:57......
It seems that this land is the so-called Maze, and the countdown to surviving on the Maze for an hour has begun!
Zhou Yi glanced at the rear, and sure enough, the road when he came had disappeared, and the rear of what should have been a void turned into a solid land.
In this land shrouded in mist, strange sounds constantly rang out from all directions.
There was a faint smell of corpses lingering on the tip of the nose in the air, which was far stronger than ordinary people's bodies, and they actually felt the slightest coolness!
A strange and dangerous feeling filled Zhou Yi's heart, and the fallen emperor appeared in his hands.
He was a little confused, not knowing whether to take the initiative to attack, or just wait for the danger to appear, and then the soldiers came to block the water and cover the earth.
A minute later, Zhou Yi still decided to take the initiative, he really couldn't bear this kind of torment, staying in place for a minute was even more difficult than staying for an hour.
He has experienced the difficulty of task 1, and it stands to reason that the difficulty of task 2 is definitely much more difficult than that of task 1, and the difficulty of task 2 can be imagined.
Mission 2 only needs to survive in this maze for an hour, and he doesn't know how dangerous this maze is, but he knows that it must be deadly!
Zhou Yi cautiously walked forward, and only after taking a few steps, he felt someone flashing behind him, and the advantage of being engrossed all the time was reflected.
Almost as soon as he felt something behind him, the giant sword in his hand swung out, cutting through the fog and drawing a perfect semicircle in the air, slashing backwards.
However, Zhou Yi's confident sword actually slashed into the air, and the feeling of slashing out with all his strength but slashing into the air made him feel a tightness in his chest.
Zhou Yi took a few deep breaths before he felt a little more comfortable in his chest, and his eyes looked around vigilantly, but there was nothing except the white mist!
He simply ignored the thing that had just flashed behind him and continued to walk forward.
I have been walking for a few minutes, and the "thing" just now has not reappeared, or has it not been discovered by Zhou Yi again?
Through the fog, Zhou Yi could clearly see a human-shaped black shadow not far away.
This humanoid black shadow stood with its feet side by side, its hands outstretched, as if it wanted to embrace something, and as for the position of its head, it was actually empty!
A chill rose from his heart, Zhou Yi clenched the giant sword in his hand, and a golden sword qi broke through the fog and shot towards the humanoid black shadow.
Zhou Yi clearly saw the sword qi passing through the black shadow's body, but the humanoid black shadow did not react at all, still maintaining that posture.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhou Yi felt that the humanoid black shadow was closer to him.
He frowned, gritted his teeth, held his breath, and slowly walked towards the dark figure of the humanoid.
When he was less than two meters away from this black shadow of the human form, the black shadow of the human figure ...... Gone!
"Is it a hallucination?"
Zhou Yi can probably guess a little from the name of this place, the maze, as the name suggests, must be related to psychedelia and the like, and it is not surprising that hallucinations and the like appear.
He slowly took a few steps back with some reluctance, and the humanoid black shadow actually reappeared, and he breathed a sigh of relief, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
A pair of dark and thick hands suddenly hugged him from behind!
Zhou Yi's sweat hair exploded, goosebumps rose all over his body, and a biting chill rose from the soles of his feet, cooling his whole body!
He tried his best, but he couldn't break free from the embrace of these black hands, and when he turned his head, he was a headless man with a pitch black body!
At this time, I looked at the humanoid black shadow not far away, and it actually disappeared, and this headless man was obviously the humanoid black shadow!
Zhou Yi saw that the headless man behind him did not do anything threatening to him except for hugging him, so he simply used a probe on the headless man behind him first, but got an answer that made him chill.
"You can't use probe in the maze!"
Without seeing the attributes of this headless man, what just happened is a little incomprehensible.
At this time, the body of the headless man behind him actually began to slowly swell, Zhou Yi's heart jumped, and he hurriedly pointed his strength to 250, but ...... Still can't break free from the headless man's embrace!
