379. Misbootstrapping

"Your blood magic does have some wonderful uses." Benci Jackley's head turned left and right, scanning his surroundings:

"I really didn't expect that Clint and I could bypass the restrictions of your soul contract in this way and enter this sub-plane that has just appeared."

Clint Windhawk is more reticent and not as eloquent as Bench Jackey.

He nodded slightly at Nabi's head, and shot a white column of air from his mask.

Columns of air stretched out into the labyrinth, spreading in different directions along the passages.

This is Clint Wind Eagle casting a wind spell to detect the unique space of the three of them in a large area.

"It's supposed to be a labyrinth." Clint Wind Eagle said with a straight look:

"The five ritual circles that Nabi had set up outside had just teleported his five clones in. These five doppelgangers appear in each of the five corners of the labyrinth. These five corners should be the entrance to the labyrinth. Judging from the distribution of the entrance to the labyrinth, the center of the hemispherical surface composed of them is most likely the exit of the labyrinth. ”

Clint Wind Eagle is worthy of being a super-saint wizard who has participated in the exploration of sub-planes and magical relics many times, and he discovered the law of the labyrinth at once.

Benz Jackey trusted Clint Windhawk and did not object.

Naby suddenly asked:

"Do you have a way to find other entrances to the labyrinth? The mysterious being who told me when the entrance to the subplane was opened had probably entered here through some other labyrinth entrance. We have to avoid it as much as possible. ”

When Nabi said this, there was a bit of caution in his tone, as if he was afraid of being caught by the "mysterious existence" in his mouth.

However, if he is really going to be caught, Nabi doesn't think there's a problem.

The "Hemolysis Technique" he uses is a very strange blood magic that allows him to integrate other blood into his body, and then use his body materials to create a magical body similar to a "Siamese Man".

In this magical body, Nabi, Clint Windhawk, and Bench Jacky are trio conjoined people, sharing the same body while retaining some of the trio's extraordinary abilities.

In this way, the state of "you have me, I have you" has become an excellent means for Nabi to circumvent the restrictions of the soul contract.

The disadvantages of this blood magic are as obvious as its advantages.

The first is that the spellcasting ability of the three super-saint wizards in the conjoined state has decreased significantly.

The combined comprehensive strength of them is comparable to that of a normal super-saint wizard's magic clone.

But if this comprehensive strength is divided into three, and each person holds one of them, then their average power will drop to the level of the Eight Rings Battle Wizard.

This is one of the disadvantages of "blood dissolves in the body".

Another drawback is that Nabi, who sees herself as a vessel, must be stronger than Benz and Clint.

In other words, if Benzy and Clint mobilize their magic clones to fuse with Naby, Nabi must use the main body instead of the magic clone.

Otherwise, Benzy and Clint would be able to turn against each other and eat Naby's magical clones.

Therefore, Nabi, who is now appearing in the labyrinth, comes in the form of an ontology.

If he were killed here, the Unas Ring would permanently lose a super-saint wizard.

Li Nuo was secretly watching the three of them, and his eyes gradually became cold.

A good hand to darken Chen Cang, a good hand to make a cold knife behind the back, sure enough, people who can surpass the level of the Holy Position, none of them are good at stubble.

Leno aimed at Naby's head and threw a deconstruction technique, spending energy to retrieve the opponent's panel information and memory fragments.

After a quick read, Li Nuo figured out the cause and effect of the incident.

In a way, Nabi did fulfill his soul contract obligations.

Together with Clint Windhawk and Bench Jack, he convinces the other super-saint wizards to give up their plans to explore the second plane.

Their persuasion was largely successful.

Except for a few gray wizards who did not listen to persuasion, all the other super-saint wizards of the Unas Ring gave up their plans to explore the secondary plane for the sake of their face.

If things stop at this point, then Nabi is a good Nabi.

But unfortunately, his purpose was not pure, and he secretly reached a cooperation with Benz and Clint, and the three of them conspired together to occupy the second plane.

Reading this, a doubt arose in Li Nuo's mind.

It stands to reason that Nabi, as a bystander, witnessed the whole process of Li Nuo's destruction of the corpse of the Bloodbinder, and should be very clear about the difference in strength between himself and him.

Why did Nabi sharpen his head and run up to provoke?

Is Naby's brain show funny?

With this question in mind, Li Nuo continued to read Nabi's memory fragments.

Well, don't really say it, Nabi does have a problem with her brain.

Not only did this guy kill all of his own Nemidral Witch, but he also soaked in a pool of blood every day and night, his mind full of bloodlust and killing.

It seemed that his mind had been tainted by the Bloodbinders, and that prompted him to take the action of the moment.

His collaboration with Clint was simple.

He is responsible for bringing Clint and Bench into the second plane, and the latter two provide him with high-quality blood food to satisfy his growing bloodlust.

"In that case, Nabi is even worse than the assassination angel expected."

Li Nuo thought to himself:

"The Assassination Angel had predicted that in a maximum of ten years, Nabi would be assimilated by the remaining spiritual contamination of the Bloodbinders. It's only been four months since he got the corpse essence, and he has become what he is now, which is really a bit unexpected by me. ”

Leno noticed that Clint Windhawk's air column was beginning to spread towards the entrances to the 1st and 2nd mazes.

Dinas and Selena should be waiting at the entrance to the Labyrinth 1 and 2.

Li Nuo did not hesitate, he cast the "Spiritual Vision" at a speed far faster than the qi column.

After a few hundred jumps, he saw Dinas and Selena, who were stationed at the entrance.

Li Nuo activates "telepathy" and says a pre-prepared code to the two to prove his identity.

Without waiting for the two of them to inquire about the situation, Li Nuo took the lead and cast the "Veil of Separation (Imitation)" on them, covering their figures.

"What kind of magic is this?" Selena looked at the film of energy wrapped around her body in amazement, I don't know if it was an illusion, she had a feeling that she had been cut off from the world.

Dinas was half a beat slower to react, just widening her eyes curiously at the lilac mist that covered her body's surface.

At this moment, the column of air cast by Clint Windhawk came to the exit of the Labyrinth 1 and 2.

Dinas and Selena's delicate bodies shook slightly, and they all entered a static state, not daring to make more movements.

Like a centipede with a hole in the soil, the column of air twisted and twisted in the empty labyrinthine passage.

Bursts of vibrations composed of wind-based energy emanated from the air pillars, sweeping every corner of the labyrinth passage in all directions without dead ends.

Several invisible shockwaves rushed towards the two Dinas, but they passed directly through them, without making any waves, and fell straight to the floor beneath them.

"You two stay where you are. If an uninvited guest enters the labyrinth, I'll take care of them. ”

Li Nuo advised:

"With the invisibility spell I cast, there's no way they'll be able to spot you, so just stay in peace."

Dinas nodded honestly and stood there obediently.

Selena asked with some concern:

"Who is the other party?"

Li Nuo sneered and said:

"Heh, it's an old acquaintance. Clint Windhawk and Bench Jackey. ”

Selena was stunned:

"How could it be them? Where did they know exactly when the entrance to the subplane opened? ”

Li Nuo shook his head slightly and said:

"It's a long story, let's wait until I get rid of them first."

Nabi's scheming is not shallow.

He doesn't pick people to work with randomly.

The reason for working with Benci Jackey and Clint Windhawk is because Naby has figured out the conflict between "Leno Jarvis" and the two.

Although it is not known the identity of the mysterious being in the natural world and why it is a three-ring wizard, this does not prevent Naby from involving Benzy and Clint to restrain the actions of the mysterious being.

Li Nuo sped up and hurried towards the exit of the labyrinth, not paying too much attention to the three Nabys.

However, Clint seems to have a bit of a problem with the entrances to the 1st and 2nd labyrinths, and is bent on finding the people who entered the maze through those two entrances.

"I didn't find any energy fluctuations that didn't belong to the three of us." Clint said as he manipulated the air column to explore the labyrinth.

Benchi Jilei asked thoughtfully:

"Isn't there any movement?"

"No, not at all." Clint paused and added:

"At least as far as I've detected, I don't see anyone. Perhaps those who entered the labyrinth through the other entrances had already reached the depths of the labyrinth. ”

Benki tilted his head sideways, looked at Nabi and asked:

"Did you say before that the mysterious being knows a lot about this subplane?"

"Yes." Naby nodded.

Benz had the answer in mind:

"Then it seems that its plan is very simple, just by entering the second plane at the first time, to seize the quota of this labyrinth space, so that all the people who enter the labyrinth are their own people. If that's the case, the strength of that mysterious being may not be as high as you think. ”

After Benz's analysis, Naby and Clint also realized this.

Benz was right.

If the mysterious being was already powerful enough to crush the super-saint wizards, there was no need to plan to seize the labyrinth.

It is precisely because the mysterious existence is not strong enough that it wants to use the soul contract to unite Nabi and prevent other super-saint wizards from entering.

Benchi Jirei continues:

"I agree with Clint's previous point. For a maze like this, where the entrances to the maze are distributed very regularly, the exit is generally at the center of the sphere formed by the entrance to the maze. Let's get there now, and maybe we'll see that mysterious being. ”

As soon as Benz's words fell, Clint suddenly said:

"Wait, I've noticed some strange energy fluctuations."

"Where?" Benki asked.

Clint raised his hand and pointed in a direction:

"There."

"What's that?" Benz asked again.

Clint groaned and said:

"If my detection is correct, the labyrinth space we are in now is a standard cube. The exit of the labyrinth, which we speculated earlier, is located in the center of the cube. But the energy fluctuations I feel now appear on a certain edge of the cube, that place..."

Before Clint could finish his sentence, he suddenly changed his words and said:

"Wait, the energy fluctuations are gone, and it seems to have passed through the wall at the edge of the labyrinth and left the labyrinth."

Benz's eyes lit up:

"So, the exit of the maze is not actually in the center of the maze, but at the edge of the maze?"

"It could be so." Clint said.

Nabi Says:

"Then what are we waiting for, let's go. Go to the place where the energy fluctuations disappear. ”

The three of them are one and cannot act separately.

After they unify their goals, Bench casts a thunderbolt spell that turns the three heads into lightning and moves quickly in the direction Clint is pointing.

They flew extremely fast, like real lightning, and in a snap they passed through a maze of several kilometers of passages, and then swerved 90 degrees into another passage with a thud.

In just one minute, the three of them crossed a distance of nearly 10 kilometers at a lightning speed to reach the place where the energy fluctuations disappeared.

Here, they meet the odd characters on the walls.

It was an indeterminate circular pattern, sketched in ordinary ink, that occupied a wall.

And this wall is located at the very edge of the labyrinth.

As you can imagine, something took advantage of the conversation and exploration of the three of them to come to this wall, draw a mysterious circular pattern, activate a certain program of the maze, pass through the wall at the edge of the maze, and leave the maze.

After a heated discussion, the three of Benqi took note of the mysterious patterns on the wall and hurried to find the other edges of the cube maze.

In their opinion, the cube maze has 8 vertices and 12 edges, then 8 of the edges should be the 8 maze exits that can only be passed by one person, and the remaining 4 edges are dead ends.

Since the mysterious existence can open the exit of the maze by drawing mysterious lines, the three of them should also be able to do this step.

The only trouble is that the three of Benqi don't know which edges are exits and which are dead ends, so they can only try one by one.

Under the misguided guidance of Li Nuo, the three Benqi, who knew little about the maze, successfully embarked on the wrong path.

They tried several edges, but they couldn't see the exit of the labyrinth.

This made them wonder if their guesses were wrong, or if the mysterious patterns corresponding to each edge were different.

The three of them had to stop and ponder the meaning of the mysterious pattern.

Taking advantage of their frustration, Li Nuo accelerated and finally reached the exit in the center of the labyrinth.

Li Nuo slammed headlong into the unpretentious stone wall, smoothly passed through, and entered the core of the secondary plane filled with gray mist.

A ball of light around the gray lines, floating silently in the air.

Li Nuo raised his hand and held it, and a system message came to mind.

[You have come into contact with the "Sub-Plane Core". 】

[It is estimated to consume 120 million energy points, which can be bound to your soul.] 】

[The binding process lasts for 12 minutes, do you confirm the binding?] 】

Li Nuo nodded and silently said "binding".

A veil of seclusion covered the walls of the labyrinth, completely obscuring it, leaving no chance for the Nabi and the others to peek into the mysteries. (End of chapter)
