Chapter 238: Play as the source of the plague

Before the clown could react, he looked at the knife in Qin Ze's hand and slashed it down at a very fast speed.

This knife directly cut off half of the clown's body, not by the waist, but along the clown's arm, down the body.

There was no blood spilled.

The figure of the clown began to decay and turn into dust.

In the process of turning into dust, it first showed a resentful expression.

"Why do this to me? I'm just a ...... Serve your people! ”

But as the breath of life dissipated, and half of its body turned into dust, the clown showed a look of relief.

"Oh......"

"I see."

"No...... I don't want to recall. ”

[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made a taboo, I shouldn't have made a taboo that day. 】

[I'm so homesick...... I want to go home. 】

But I'm dying. 】

Qin Ze began to hear his heart. This made Qin Ze stunned.

Previously, he thought that the clown was a soulless man, and it was likely that he had challenged the old calendar here.

Or other creatures from the Old Calendar world.

But now, Qin Ze is sure that the clown may be a challenger, but not without a soul.

It is only when death that the soul can break free from some kind of power.

"This is rule three, death is the end of the labyrinth."

The clown wanted to nod, but unfortunately his body was no longer able to move.

[I don't want to die......]

[Killing me will only make you lose some choices in a desperate situation.] 】

And even if you kill me...... It was also expected by that God. 】

Fortunately, Qin Ze can still hear his heart.

"Yes, but if I get into a desperate situation and make a deal with you again, I'll only get completely lost in the labyrinth, right?"

"Some games are about making the most critical choice at the beginning, sorry, you failed, death is actually a relief for you."

"As for that god, I think what you said should be the seventh god."

"I certainly don't think I'll find a fatal hole in the first level, a hole that the Lord of the Labyrinth has overlooked."

"But I believe that even if all options are a conspiracy of the designer, there is bound to be the most correct option."

Qin Ze didn't pay any more attention to the clown.

The clown soon disappeared completely.

And after the clown disappeared, Qin Ze came to the three doors, the door in the middle.

"Well, it's funny, the door in the middle, with a drawing of a body without a head."

"And the door on the left, with a spiky body......"

"The door on the right is a head without a body."

Qin Ze touched his chin:

"How do I interpret it?"

He knows that without the words of the clown, all decryption can only be done on his own.

The clown said that the maze has to go through fifteen choices before it can be exited.

Of course, I have to be eighteen times. Another option is to keep opening the door until you find the Lord of the Labyrinth......

But Qin Ze didn't think that he could shake the god of value.

Open each door yourself, and you'll pay twice as much. But these costs can be recovered in the world behind the door.

And, fifty percent of LΓΌ Buwei's soul has now belonged to the Lord of the Labyrinth.

He wants to...... The fifty percent of the souls had nothing to do with LΓΌ Buwei's treasures.

Qin Ze has always been thinking about the small bank treasury collected by banker Lu Buwei.

"I've always had good luck. In any case, there is actually one more thing in me that belongs to the advance force......"

"That's luck."

"If Zhou Baiyu is in that small world, the royal family karma that he gave me can be regarded as an advance force. Then Ling Hanshu's luck should also be. ”

"Then trust your instincts."

"If I were to interpret it, I would think that not having a head probably means losing intelligence, and not having a body probably means ...... Incapacitated? ”

"Choose to lose your head as a price, and the cost is double......"

"Then even if you can get it back behind the door...... I don't necessarily realize how to get it back. ”

In any case, Qin Ze felt that it was not cost-effective to lose his head, that is, to lose his ability to think.

If the head represents memory...... Then you may forget what you came here for.

"Maybe others won't lose all their ability to think, but I'm in a state of double the cost right now."

"Then I definitely can't choose this."

Qin Ze denied the door in the middle.

"The next thing is about not having a body...... If the mind corresponds to things such as thinking, memory, and spirit, then the body corresponds to the ability to act. ”

"This can't be abandoned, if I become a scumbag of war, then all my abilities will be reduced......"

"I'm not sure if there's an enemy I can't defeat in my prime, but I've got to do it - the possibility of losing my mobility."

What is even more terrible than being a fool is being a person who is not stupid, but who is completely unable to change the status quo.

Therefore, both force and intelligence cannot be lacking.

Qin Ze didn't guess what it meant that the last door was covered with spikes.

He felt that he could already make a choice according to the method of elimination.

"That's you."

Qin Ze no longer hesitated and pushed the door open.

Senluo maze, level1 challenge, start.

……

……

The stench is tangy.

Qin Ze's first reaction was to vomit, but soon he found that he used his extreme speed to get used to the smell.

But this is clearly not a good thing.

Because when Qin Ze opened his eyes, in the garbage dump, he couldn't smell the stench of garbage when he looked up.

This mountain of garbage seems to have no smell.

Could it be ...... The whole body is covered with spikes, which means that you have lost your sense of smell?

Wrong...... The sense of smell and the spikes are fundamentally unrelated intentions.

Qin Ze looked around.

He was now deep in a huge garbage dump.

There is all sorts of garbage piled up around, food scraps, discarded household items, clothing, toys, and even corpses.

In such a messy, huge garbage dump, Qin Ze couldn't even smell anything.

But he really smelled something that made him sick to his stomach at the beginning of level 1.

Qin Ze was a little puzzled, but what was even more puzzled was that he saw the three gates now.

The first gate is in the city directly ahead. The pattern on the door is not legible.

You can only see from afar, and at the end of the line of sight, a door flashes somewhere in the city.

Qin Ze's location is in a garbage dump outside the city.

The other door was in a misty jungle behind him.

The distance between the two doors was the same, and Qin Ze was in the middle.

One door is in the city in the distance, and the other is in the misty jungle in the distance.

are two completely opposite directions.

The third gate, which does not exist.

level 1, there are only two options. But unlike level0, the details of the two options are not visible.

That is, the details on the door, which cannot be displayed because the distance is too far.

Qin Ze thought that he could run back and forth to check the details of the two doors.

But he soon realized that he seemed to have only one choice to make.

Qin Ze took out the evil magic lamp, wiped the surface of the lamp three times, and summoned the lamp god.

Like a ghost of the lamp, the lamp god leaned out of the lamp.

"I hope you answer the question this time, and it is no longer nonsense literature."

"Which door should I choose?"

lamp god says:

"I'll take something from you."

"What, a clown of a prince died, and another clown of my own family??" Qin Ze's expression became playful.

What the runes brought back from the world of human fantasy seems to have additional abilities.

This lamp god seems to know that Qin Ze really dares to fight the clown.

And although it is a lamp god, in the final analysis, it is just something brought back by an old calendarist at the level of a person.

"The things I take are unimportant, and the guidance I can give is very limited......"

"So, correspondingly, the price I made you pay is also very simple......"

The lamp god used honorifics, and Qin Ze was very satisfied.

"For example, you can provide a button on your clothes. Forgive me, it's the rule, it's the ceremony. ”

The expression of the lamp god turned out to be a little flattering.

Qin Ze found that there are many advantages of being a bad guy, such as making the people who negotiate transactions with you afraid of you.

Obviously, the act of killing the clown made the lamp god a little scared.

This is very good, killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, Qin Ze thinks it is very convenient.

"One more thing...... All items in the maze will be further weakened. ”

"My original ability was to provide you with the right answer to a question......

"But now, my ability has changed, been weakened to provide an answer to a random question."

Qin Ze looked at the lamp god with a clown-like gaze.

The lamp god was afraid and wanted to retract into the magic lamp, but in the end he did not retract and did not change his words.

Qin Ze was sure that what the Lantern God said was true.

It's not that it's unwilling to play its full role, it's that it really can't.

"Okay, tell me what information I can get in this level."

The god of lights is relieved:

"Maliciously blocks the possibility of communicating with everyone, and if the stench of the dump is ten, it is the limit of what humans can bear...... Then the stench that emanates from your body is a hundred. ”

"You're a person with a foul smell, and anyone who comes close to you will vomit from the stench on your body."

"You won't be able to communicate with anyone. Because of your stench, everyone wants you to die, and they are gradually turning their desires into reality. ”

A button on Qin Ze's clothes suddenly disappeared and appeared in the hand of the lamp god.

The action of the lamp god was done in one go, he took back the buckle, retracted it into the lamp, and crawled without hesitation.

Qin Ze didn't pursue it.

After all...... The smell on my body probably can't stand this lamp.

"It turns out that being covered in spikes means that I have lost the friendliness of other people."

"I'm a monster who will disgust whoever comes close......"

"This opening character, it's disgusting. I now understand why I gagged at first and got used to it later. ”

"Because at the beginning, it may have been loading the details of the character."

"And after the loading is completed, as the presence of a foul smell ten times the amount of the garbage dump, I am used to my own smell, so naturally I will not smell the garbage dump."

"Hell...... Crossing the other world, the days when I was a shell? ”

"No, it's ten times worse than the stench of the garbage dump, and the shell doesn't stink like me."

Qin Ze suddenly felt ...... The third door may actually be more disgusting than the first two.

"At present, it seems that this is the price of opening the door to pay, maybe I didn't have such a stink, but double the price, the smell doubles......"

"If I don't find what I've lost, then I'll carry this stench with me...... Proceed to the next level. ”

"The next level, the next level, and every level after that, I basically lost the possibility of communicating with people, because of the damn smell."

Qin Ze suddenly felt that the design of this labyrinth was indeed full of malice.

Leave your mind behind, put your action behind, or...... Leave aside the possibility of others helping you.

These three things are actually very important.

"But if my brain and action are put aside, I may not have the ability to get it back."

"The situation now is that although I have lost the ability to be liked by anyone, I can get it back."

"This pass...... It's not hard. ”

Qin Ze had a plan in his heart.

"According to the Joker, the cost of compensation, in addition to being able to recover what was lost, may also recover additional subsidies."

"So the more you lose, the more you subsidize."

"Now I'm going to judge, what to choose...... What I'm looking for, where to hide. ”

Intuition told Qin Ze that there were two doors, two choices, and in one of the choices, there was a subsidy to make him no longer stink and become close to others.

But the key lies in which one.

"If I were the Lord of the Labyrinth......"

Qin Ze began to substitute.

First of all, the Lord of the Labyrinth is a very disgusting guy, and he can set up a clown to help those who challenge the maze to quench their thirst......

It shows that the temperament is very bad, and the clown is the prop it uses to prolong the despair of the challenger.

"So such a person is a person who will appreciate the desperation of his opponent."

Such a person will deliberately set a path that seems to be the right option, and then take advantage of the failure of the correct option...... to further appreciate the desperation of the challengers. ”

"So if I'm the Lord of the Labyrinth, then I'm going to set up a misty jungle like this in the first level...... It must make the challenger feel that the Misty Jungle is the right thing to do. ”

"Because the smell is too foul, players will choose to avoid 'humans' so as not to conflict with too many humans."

"But the stench can dispel the ...... beasts"

"The easy option, the superficially correct option – it has to be to go to the jungle."

"But if you really choose this way, you will definitely encounter other problems."

"Because the Lord of the Labyrinth, you were designed to stink just to make you suffer a lot."

"He'll be sure to hide the real answer, the choice to get closer to the end of the maze, in town."

Qin Ze made a decision.

After returning from that area of the Dragon Boat Festival, Qin Ze became more and more "player" thinking.

If there were "players" in the old calendar, he felt that he would be able to learn skills as a temporary worker.

"But I pay twice as much, and the stench is double...... In fact, in a sense, this is also a good thing, ordinary people don't dare to come near me at all. ”

"To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the cost of not communicating with others was too great, I even felt that this stench would not be bad, and with this stench, walk to the throne of the Lord of the Labyrinth and disgust it."

Qin Ze really wanted to do this, so another thought arose.

Now that you've made an unconventional start, maybe keep doing it.

"Everybody will want to get rid of this stench because the cost of not communicating with people is too great."

"But though, behind each door in the labyrinth, there is a complete story structure...... So the role I played, in a sense, his stench, also has a reason. ”

"I know I can find a way out of the stench at the moment. Presumably the Lord of the Labyrinth thought I would do the same. ”

"But I can get to the bottom of the origins of the character I'm playing today.

"Find a way to get rid of the stench, find a way to exacerbate the stench. Further test the other rules of the maze to see if there is a part in the player's favor. ”

Qin Ze felt that it was feasible, and he began to move his steps and walked towards the town.
