244. Explore the underwater labyrinth 4
Doya looked at the button and proposed, "Why don't I press this mechanism?" ”
"It's okay, this mechanism is most likely that surprise." Su Yu shook his head and didn't get out of the way.
When Doya's proposal was rejected, she stood beside Su Yu with a bow and arrow.
And Shanqing was thinking about what Su Yu had just said, so much so that she didn't have too much emotion when she heard that Su Yu had found the mechanism...... She was still immersed in Su Yu's words.
As the raised button was pressed, all three of them saw the 'ground' on the road on the other side of the button, the road on the left, slowly open, revealing a downward staircase.
Su Yu took out the high-level road guide rune and set the first coordinate at the entrance of the steps.
"Let's go." Su Yu walked ahead and led the two of them to the bottom of the steps.
Although there is no light source under the steps, it may even be that the light is even dimer because it is underground, and it can almost be said that you can't see your fingers.
But because of the existence of the lighting rune, they can still see the scene inside-
Actually, there is nothing special, it is exactly the same as the top, there are dark blue smooth walls on the left and right sides, but the road here goes down, not a flat road.
After the stairs came to the end, there was a long straight road, and after walking out along this straight road, Su Yu and the three found that they had actually left the maze directly.
"It's ...... Labyrinth entrance? Doya looked at the obvious gate of the labyrinth in front of her, and always felt that this trip seemed to be a little too light.
Not only her, but Su Yu and Shanqing also felt that this seemed a little too simple.
After all, it was a three-and-a-half-star relic, how could they rely on a junior spirit senser and an intermediate luck rune, and then they came out?
How could it be so simple!
Su Yu looked at the bare coral gate, and then at the tall stone pillar that seemed to be engraved with a string of complex words, and a bold idea vaguely appeared in his heart.
"It's a mirror maze." The so-called mirror maze means that there are two mazes, and these two mazes are mirror images and are completely reversed.
Confirming this idea are the two texts that Su Yu got -
The first paragraph is the text that Youai saw before, that is, the eight words 'no road labyrinth, there is no entry and no exit'.
And the second paragraph is what she sees now, and the translation should be 'extending in all directions, without beginning and ending'.
The roadless labyrinth corresponds to extending in all directions, one without a road, and the other unimpeded in all directions, like a mirror image, with completely opposite meanings.
The entrance of the labyrinth is the 'beginning' and 'beginning', and the beginning and the end are the absence of the entrance, but the meaning of the exit is the opposite of 'entering and not leaving'.
Shanqing: "Mirror Labyrinth...... I seem to have heard of this, it is said that the way to crack this maze is to go in from the entrance of a mirrored maze, then find the entrance of another mirror image in the maze, then reach the second maze, and then go out through the exit of this second maze? ”
Shanqing's solution is actually right, because the two mirror mazes are interoperable and can come and go with each other, and it happens that one has an entrance and the other has an exit, and from one to the other, this is considered a customs clearance.
This is the best way to understand, and the most troublesome.
After all, the characteristics of the labyrinth itself are that people can't find the way and lose their way, so this method has to find the entrance of the first mirror, and then the entrance of the labyrinth, and then the entrance of the second mirror, and finally the exit, and this entrance and exit may be the same as the underground passage just now, hidden by the mechanism...... Isn't that troublesome?
Unless there is extreme luck and there is no time limit for this labyrinth, they are afraid that they will not accompany this underwater labyrinth to become a 'treasure of the sea' after this toss.
Luck was good, though, as they had already completed the first step - finding the maze with the entrance, and finding the entrance.
But Su Yu is not ready to use this troublesome method to clear the customs, she also has a way to crack the mirror maze that is a little risky, but can save a lot of trouble.
Su Yu: "The method you said is correct, but I am ready to use another method to crack it." ”
If the first method is simply troublesome and purely time-consuming, then the second method, if successful, will take a short time.
The idea of this solution is to combine the two mirror mazes into one, so that they have both an entrance and an exit, so that they don't even need to look for the entrance, because they are in the maze themselves, they just need to find the exit.
Moreover, when the maze is combined, it will be much easier for them to find the exit, because in addition to the merger of the exit and entrance, the characteristics of 'no road' and 'no accessibility' will most likely also be merged.
One has no road, the other is full of roads, and if you neutralize it a little, although the exit will not be obvious at a glance, it will definitely not take much effort to find it.
"I didn't expect there to be such a way...... Shanqing was a little surprised when she heard this, but she didn't doubt Su Yu, because she said it very firmly, as if she had really experienced the mirror maze and successfully cleared it with this method.
Not only that, but the person who told her to crack the mirror maze also once said that there is more than one solution to this maze.
What he knew was only the most troublesome one, and these also corresponded to what Su Yu said.
"So what are we going to do to be able to merge the two mazes?" I don't know if it's because of the words she just reminded her to be 'confident', or because of the knowledge and ability that Su Yu has shown so far, Shanqing can now be said to have a lot of trust in Su Yu.
It is no exaggeration to say that now as long as it is not a dangerous thing, as long as Su Yu has an order, she will definitely carry it out immediately without any hesitation.
"The method of merging the maze is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say that it is simple, the mirror maze is separated because the maze contains too much energy, so it needs to 'split' itself to disperse the energy." In other words, if they can help the maze 'consume' the excess energy, then they don't need to do anything else, and the maze will merge on its own.
After all, they are one, and if it weren't for the fact that the excess energy they carried would cause the maze to be destroyed, no one would want to 'tear themselves in half'.
“…… When dispersed, they create this energy into guardians who guard the labyrinth, and these guardians are the embodiment of the labyrinth's excess energy. ”
