The light in the maze is dim.

The main color of dark cyan is very oppressive, and there is a suffocating and terrifying aura in the air. It was very quiet in the corridor, and occasionally a gust of wind blew, bringing a terrible cry like the groaning of an unjust soul, which echoed in my ears for a long time.

It was as if the end of the dark road was a road that would lead to hell, and it would make people tremble at every step.

Rusty blades and axes, broken clay pots, bits and pieces of bones... These details all hint at the presence of terrifying monsters.

Ji Xun observed it and confirmed that the atmosphere of the maze should be deliberate.

This is a very clever psychological suggestion that will invisibly affect the intruder's mentality.

It's like watching a horror movie, if you turn off the sound, the horror atmosphere immediately plummets by ninety.

But he doesn't know exactly what the purpose of this setting is.

Ji Xun walked in the labyrinth passage neither fast nor slowly.

He walked all the way, leaving some nicks on the wall along the way.

The underground labyrinth is completely sealed, and if you don't know the correct way to go, you can only use the traditional marking method to constantly try.

But Ji Xun knew that if he continued to test like this, he would run into monsters sooner or later, so he didn't dare to go too fast.

As he walked, he kept thinking about where the breaking point of this maze was.

300,000 laborers were killed and turned into monsters, and the probability of encountering them was very high.

But perhaps it was the fierce battle in another place that attracted the attention of most of the monsters, and he walked a few passages without encountering any danger.

I often see piles of bones in the corners.

I don't see why.

Ji Xun vaguely felt like he was about to grasp something.

But he was definitely not the only one who could think of avoiding the group of people in the Governor's Palace.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him.

.......

"Captain, there are more and more skeletons..."

"Leave these skeletons alone, get out of here! If we are to be targeted by the secret keepers, we will die! ”

"It's terrifying, that [Secret Keeper] actually killed the Frost Knight with one move! Damn, what the hell is going on, isn't this a D-class space? ”

“...”

As soon as the words came, in a blink of an eye, I saw three people running over as if they were being chased by some monster, and their faces were full of panic.

And in the empty corridor behind them, there was a dense sound of bone rubbing.

I couldn't avoid it and was hit squarely.

Ji Xun fixed his eyes and saw that it was the captain Dong Jiu and two other colleagues who collected corpses.

But he didn't care who those three people were.

Instead, I was attracted by another bizarre scene.

As soon as the three of them came, the bones that were still in a pile in the corridor just now suddenly seemed to be awakened by some mysterious force, and they stood up with a click, turning into a skeleton monster?

Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sighed softly in his heart: "These dry bones are really monsters?" ”

As if activating the chain effect, the original skeletons in the corridor all stood up and turned into a [Skeleton Craftsman].

As soon as these necromantic creatures appeared, in an instant, the entire corridor became gloomy.

Seeing this scene, Ji Xun not only did not feel terrified, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

As if he had caught something, he pondered in his heart: "In this case, I seem to understand a little..."

.......

Fleeing in embarrassment, the three of them looked at Ji Xun in the passage, and they were slightly surprised.

Isn't this the newcomer?

Sometimes, as soon as you look at each other, you already know that someone has a bad intention.

The three of them came all the way to the road, and the guy named Bucktooth had already touched the dagger at his waist with his hand in bad faith.

Ji Xun was originally thinking about the awakening of the skeleton, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the small movement and muttered, "Isn't it good to be alive..."

He also knew very well why the servants did it.

These guys aren't stupid either, and now there are skeleton monsters everywhere, and seeing them entangled is almost a dead end. Apparently they felt that a bait that would attract the hatred of the monsters would keep them alive.

It is better to see the bait of blood.

This kind of trick is not less used by hunters in the wild.

Bucktooth confidently drew his knife, probably thinking that his strength in the second stage of the card disciple could easily cut off Ji Xun's thigh in front of him?

However, at this moment, an unexpected scene appeared.

Ji Xun's scattered eyes suddenly turned cold, and he quickly drew his gun.

Almost as soon as the bucktooth dagger flashed cold, a black muzzle hit the guy's head like lightning.

Being pointed at the head with a gun, the bucktooth expression instantly changed from contempt to no present horror, and his pupils were infinitely dilated, full of shock.

But this was already the last picture of his life.

"Bang".

Thunderous gunshots exploded in the corridor.

Without the slightest drag, Ji Xun pulled the trigger the moment he pulled out his gun.

He didn't take a second look at the guy with a burst head in front of him, quickly turned the muzzle of the gun, pointed it at the captain Dongjiu, who was a few meters in front of him, and decisively pulled the trigger again.

I didn't intend to kill people, but when I really killed people, I would never be soft.

The three of them are in a group.

Since you do it, you must kill it quickly.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two shots were fired in a row.

In an instant, the bullet sent two streams of air through the air.

Dong Jiu Yuguang kept glancing at this side, and was shocked at first when he saw that Bucktooth was shot in the head. Seeing that the muzzle of the gun was already pointed at him, the moment the hair exploded, he instinctively stopped sideways, and the fighting method at his feet made him make an extreme dodge action.

He is an apprentice of the card master of the sixth stage of mana, and he still takes the "fighter" route, and his nerve reaction speed and muscle burst are several times that of ordinary people.

This extreme dodge also caused the two shots that were originally aimed at the chest, one missed, and the other hit the shoulder.

The warhead went over the shoulder.

Moreover, the physical toughness of the transcendent is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and this shot did not cause much trauma.

"You...!"

Dong Jiu looked at Ji Xun, who was indifferently aiming at him with a gun, and his expression was extremely shocked.

Is this really the cowardly newcomer in his team who has been deducted from his salary and doesn't dare to say a word?

didn't have time to think about it, Dong Jiuqiang endured the sharp pain in his shoulders and turned over and kicked the ground violently, the thigh muscles broke out, and the soles of his shoes rubbed on the ground with a "bang", and the whole person was as fast as a cheetah, rushing towards Ji Xun.

It's blazing fast!

What about guns?

At such close distance, firearms are not necessarily faster than martial arts.

Ji Xun looked at the two shots that didn't kill Dong Jiu, and his expression didn't change in the slightest from beginning to end.

I have to admit that Dongjiu's strength is indeed not bad.

He relied on the money obtained by squeezing the newcomers to buy a large number of replenishment potions, his physical fitness was much stronger than the average person, and his fighting skills were not bad.

With the two shots just now, Ji Xun thought that he couldn't avoid it if he was himself.

Just because you have a lot of power doesn't mean you can use it.

That's the gap in martial arts skills.

But even if the gun was empty, there was no expression fluctuation on his expression.

His eyes were always fixed on Dong Jiu, and after his arm stabilized the recoil of the previous shot, he decisively pulled the trigger again.

However, the third shot also missed.

This distance is no longer suitable for the use of guns.

In between the shots, Dong Jiu lowered his posture and rushed into Ji Xun's waist, secretly rejoicing in his heart: "This guy is dead!" ”

Now in close quarters, this is the ideal over-the-chest takedown stance in hand-to-hand combat. As long as you lock the opponent's waist by inertia, you can immediately roll over and fall him to the ground. The target's skull and vertebrae can be broken in an instant.

This move is a lethal move.

However, Dongjiu's euphoria only lasted for a moment.

In the next second, his face changed suddenly!

didn't pick up the person as expected, but Dong Jiu felt like he had hit a strong bull, and he was shocked in his heart: This guy didn't move at all?

How can it be!

He already has six levels of mana, and he can definitely be regarded as a master in the apprenticeship of the card master, his strength and explosion are not bad, or he is an intermediate martial arts specialist, and he didn't even hold this newcomer?

Dong Jiu also realized that this newcomer is also an apprentice of a melee card master! And the strength is stronger than yourself!

But he couldn't understand that such a strong guy, whether it was to be a hunter or other income, was definitely better than being a corpse collector, why did he come to be a corpse collector and disguise himself as a weak chicken?

However, Ji Xun didn't give the enemy time to figure it out.

Seeing that he was being held by the waist, he took a step back to stabilize his body, the muzzle of the gun against Dong Jiu's waist, and decisively fired two shots in succession.

This distance is deadly.

But firearms are more deadly.

At least for these cardmaster apprentices who don't have mana protectors, bullets can easily penetrate the musculoskeletal.

Shots rang out, and blood gushed out in an instant.

The bullet pierced the organs, and the blood on Dong Jiu's face quickly faded.

Ji Xun looked at Dong Jiu, who was slowly lying at his feet, still panting, and shot him in the head again.

It's completely dead now.

The body lay in a pool of blood.

......

Ji Xun killed two people in a row, without even looking at the corpses on the ground, he turned the muzzle of the gun again, aiming at the last live mouth in front of him.

Leper Liu was completely stunned, and only fear and disbelief remained in his eyes: Captain Dongjiu is dead?

How could he never have imagined that the newcomer who was submissive on weekdays would be so ruthless that he didn't even shake his hands when he killed two people?

The leper Liu looked at the muzzle of the gun aimed at him, and his body trembled in fright: "Brother... No, big brother... Don't kill me! ”

Ji Xun tilted his head and looked at it, but he didn't pull the trigger, just stared coldly.

Pulling the trigger didn't waste an extra bullet, but he didn't.

Leave a live mouth,

It's a good time to verify your judgment.

.......

The killing was only a few breaths, and at this time, the skeleton monsters in the labyrinth were gradually approaching.

These skeleton monsters are not very fast, and their attack power is not strong, and it is only when three or five small skeletons strike together that they pose a deadly threat to ordinary people.

But the combat power is not enough, and there are a lot of them.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of quacking white skeletons had poured into the corridor where the two of them were.

There are more and more to come.

And some of these monsters still have worn-out axes, swords, and shields in their hands.

These weapons, while tattered, are no less deadly.

Seeing more and more skeleton monsters with white bones pouring in, the leper Liu was already frightened to the point that the six gods were gone.

He wanted to escape.

But he was pointed at by a swarthy gun, and he didn't dare to escape.

And what made the leper Liu couldn't understand was that the newcomer who pointed a gun at him didn't run away?

Don't you just want to use yourself as bait, why don't you run away?

.......

Ji Xun didn't say a word, just held his gun and quietly retreated to the vicinity of another fork.

The experience of [407 Abnormal Biology Research Institute] at the beginning gave him a lot of experience and inspiration.

He now knew that abiding by the rules of the space was the only reasonable way to clear the level.

Although the information just received from the enlightenment was not much, it was already obvious.

The key word is: puzzle solving.

This labyrinth killed 300,000 laborers, which means that there are 300,000 skeletons.

For the Spellcaster, these low-level skeletons are indeed one punch.

But there are 300,000 skeletons in this maze of necropolises, and you can punch 300,000?

What's more, it sounds like there is a [Secret Keeper] who can kill the Frost Knight in seconds.

Ji Xun doesn't think that killing monsters is the right way to clear the customs.

So, at this point, he had to figure something out first.

For example, the monster's aggro mechanic.

......

Ji Xun's eyes were always carefully observing the various physical details of the skeleton monster.

Standing at a fork in the road, in case you make a mistake, you can calmly retreat.

Prepare with both hands, and be able to advance and retreat.

Ji Xun naturally has nothing to panic about.

But the leper Liu who was robbed and pointed at had already been frightened, and his face was as white as paper with fear.

He couldn't figure it out, the monster was already here, why didn't the guy on the other side run away?

At this moment, the skeleton monster was already approaching within ten meters, and the sound of crunching bones grinding against each other made people's hairs stand on end.

Leper Liu finally couldn't bear the fear of impending death.

Horizontal and vertical are dead!

It's better to run away than to die!

The guy let out a strange "ah", and regardless of the muzzle of the gun pointed at him, he turned around and ran wildly towards another passage.

Immediately, a large number of skeleton monsters also chased after them.

Seeing the skeleton monsters surging like a tide, Ji Xun still didn't make any changes.

No shots, no escapes, as low breath as possible, hiding in a dark corner.

Because a bizarre scene is unfolding.

Those skeleton monsters seemed to be unable to see the big living people in the passage, and they all went to chase the fleeing leper Liu.

Seeing countless skeletons running in front of him, Ji Xun's eyes lit up: "I see." ”

At this moment, he finally came to an accurate conclusion in his heart: the skeleton monster captured the target by the fluctuation of sanity value. Or rather, the San value in the concept of past lives!

......

When Ji Xun listened to Dongjiu and the three of them talk about the skeleton monsters in the labyrinth in the car before, he had a doubt in his heart: those skeletons only have skeletons, how do they perceive and lock on to the target?

Generally, organisms rely on various sensory organs to complete target perception, such as smell, temperature, vision, sound...

But the skeletons have no organs.

Not even a brain.

It's a magical world, but that doesn't mean there isn't basic logic.

Since skeletons can perceive living people, there must be some objective factors.

I couldn't help it when I was alone just now, but I didn't expect to meet the three people of Dongjiu.

Luckily, there were conditions for verification.

There were two corpses on the ground, the flesh still fresh.

There is a temperature, there is a smell.

But the skeleton monster was not interested in the slightest.

It also directly proves that flesh, smell, and temperature are not factors that attract the hatred of skeletons.

The range immediately became smaller.

And Ji Xun left a living mouth just now to rule out the last few possibilities.

In fact, when the first three of them broke in, Ji Xun carefully observed the physical reactions of those skeletons and found an abnormality.

The moment the skeleton monster appeared from the corner of the corridor, almost all the skeletons found the target, and the skull had a biased "look" movement.

This doesn't mean that their hollow eye sockets really see anything, most likely it is an instinct left over from life.

But it can be judged from this that the monster's hatred target.

Obviously, their attention was on the three people of Dongjiu, and they didn't see Ji Xun at all.

Only a few [elite skeletons] with tall skeletons noticed it and turned their heads to look at it. But as soon as he put on the clown mask and suppressed his mood swings, the monster lost its purpose in an instant.

Ji Xun thus ruled out the two ways of perception of skeletons: soul and breath.

Not much is left.

They are both two living people, the biggest difference is that one is full of fear, while Ji Xun controls his fear.

The facts are in front of them, and the skeletons are chasing after Liu, who is so frightened that the six gods have no master.

So come to the final conclusion: the decrease in San value caused by fear is the most important incentive to attract skeleton monsters!

And thinking about it again, he walked alone in the corridor before, and those dry bones didn't wake up, and Ji Xun didn't understand why at that time.

Now that I think about it, it's just that from the first moment he entered the labyrinth, his San value fluctuated very little, and it didn't reach the critical value of attracting monster hatred.

And the environment of the labyrinth no longer hints at horror at all times, that is, to make the enterer's sanity fluctuate.

This has little impact on Ji Xun, who has long discovered the anomaly.

Figured it out.

The danger in the labyrinth was immediately reduced by half.

This is the difficulty of the original [Necropolis Labyrinth] being rated as a D-level space.

Ji Xun has already seen the hope of breaking the game.

Of course, this does not include the Keeper of Secrets, whom no one has ever seen.
