Chapter 35: Ten Steps of Heaven and Earth
"Why?" Zero said in surprise, but Ghost Ugly didn't say anything more, but continued to run, knowing what he was going to do, Zero began to count Ghost Ugly's steps, and sure enough, when the two hundred and ninety steps were finished, the tree appeared again, and this time Ghost Ugly's speed was much faster than before, and the range of steps was also very large.
"Is it really an endless loop? What do you mean when you say you can't keep up with its speed?" Zero understood the principle of the strange forest, but he didn't understand what the ghost just said meant.
"As you can see, this wood, which is temporarily called the labyrinth, is indeed as you said, it does not find the entrance, and it is indeed an endless loop, but this so-called dead loop is a cycle with variables, no matter which direction it is facing, it is the same, but it is a moving labyrinth, and the repeated trees are not because we are running in circles, but at the same time as we run in circles, the circle is also moving, and this is the difference of ten steps I just mentioned. Ghost Clown stroked his chin and said with a frown.
Zero still heard a little confused, it was better for it to fight directly, but this consideration should be left alone.
"Ten steps?"
"But speaking of which, these ten steps, no matter how fast I am, at most reduced to ten steps, it can be said that this is the maximum I can do, but I also feel that this maze can trap me, that is, these ten steps, but I just can't get out, and this has nothing to do with strength, not even speed!"
At this time, Zero has been held in the hands of the ghost ugly, and the expression on the mask is also the expression of Zero himself, this is an agreement between two people, once they leave, they are all individuals, so Zero has the right to change his expression, and now his face is the same as the ghost ugly, full of doubts.
"Then what do you think these ten steps should be?"
"According to my previous thoughts, if I go forward, no, I will try to go backwards, but the direction of this maze is not clear, no matter how I go, it is actually moving forward, I still have to find a way to solve it. The ghost ugly fell into deep thought, but at this moment, Zero showed a strange expression mixed with a clear expression.
"Boy, if that's true, then I've got a way to try. β
The ghost was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what way Zero would come up with, so he subconsciously asked what way to do it, but saw that Zero still maintained the weird smile he had before, and after the two of them bargained for a long time, Zero said his thoughts.
"Since you can't walk forward, walking backwards is the same as walking forward, so why don't you walk backwards?"
"Walking upside down?" Looking at the crooked branches all over the ground, the ghost ugly couldn't help but roll his eyes, if he didn't see what was behind him, he would walk backwards like that, and he would inevitably be thrown on his head, although no one looked at it, but the ghost still didn't want to make a fool of himself.
"Yes, think about it, if it's really like what you said, it's a maze that moves and rotates on its own, no matter how fast you chase forward, it's ten steps behind, but if you take ten steps back, does this maze have to follow backwards in order to continue to confuse? This distance may also be ten steps, but if the order of this maze is reversed, then the power that originally supported the operation of the maze will work in reverse, as long as you are fast enough, it is very likely that a lot of power will be consumed. β
"If I am the master of the labyrinth, the most important thing I want is to let people run forward all the time, because this distance of three hundred steps contains too many things, even if I run several times, I will not pay attention, and when I find out, I am already exhausted from exhaustion, think about the panting you ran before, isn't it the same? It's just that you find out faster than others, and it's also because you turn more circles than others, so you can feel it, and remember, although my method is not necessarily useful, but for us, all methods need to be tried, otherwise we will really be trapped here, and we will not be able to get out for the rest of our lives, you and I will live together, I naturally don't want you to burp like this, by the way, you are not a disciple of the astrologer, why have you never seen you show this strength?"
After listening to Zero's words, the ghost ugly first shook his head in some denial, and then shook his head gloomily and said: "Divination is not good in this kind of place, but as you said, I really need to try, walking ten steps backwards?" After speaking, the ghost ugly really took a step back, but the scene in front of him was completely unresponsive, the ghost ugly took two steps back, and everything did not change, but, when he took the last step, there was a trace of vibration in the scene in front of him, if it wasn't for Zero to keep observing, I'm afraid this faint vibration would not have been discovered by the ghost ugly at all, after seeing the effect, the ghost ugly took ten steps back, but this time, the entire forest was completely unresponsive, and even the previous shock did not appear again.
"What's the situation?" "The ghost ugly looked at the road behind him with some disbelief, and then suddenly jumped back, this time the scene in front of him changed a lot, and even appeared to a certain degree of distortion, but this distortion changed back to its original appearance the next moment the ghost ugly landed, but the tree that was targeted by the ghost ugly moved a little towards the ghost ugly.
Seeing the effect, the ghost ugly also seemed to have found the trick, and continued to fly backwards without looking back, and when he retreated to the three hundred steps, the tree that had been changing with him suddenly disappeared, and the next second, the tree appeared behind the ghost ugly, as if it had never changed, but the ghost knew that just before that, the tree was chasing after the ghost ugly as if it had a spirit.
"It seems that your proposal is indeed useful, but for us, this does not seem to be a good solution, you say consumption, I'm afraid it will also consume me, if you have any other way, just say it, now we should escape from this damn weird jungle together!"
He actually passed through the tree marked by himself without hindrance, as if he was just a shadow through himself, but when he reached out and firmly grasped the branch of this tree, it was precisely because of this that his backward body suddenly stopped, and then slammed into the trunk of the tree with a muffled sound.
"Hiss......" The ghost who was in pain couldn't help but let go, and after falling to the ground, he began to rub his chest where he was hit, and then looked at the surrounding layers of dead trees, the ghost's face began to become extremely ugly, this is definitely not an ordinary maze!
"It's a terrifying change, because when it hits, the tree blurs, and when the threat of this attack disappears, it turns back into a physical entity, which ...... Is this magic?" Ghost Ugly thought hard, but always felt that he had something that he hadn't thought of, "Don't you think this seems to be a magic array made of space magic?" When Zero's voice sounded, Ghost Ugly reacted.
"Space magic?" The ghost ugly looked at the zero in his hand with some surprise, for what Zero said, he didn't believe it very much, the space magic has disappeared for a long time in the Fury Continent, and there is no space magician in the entire continent, because of the long-term inheritance fault, the current Fury Continent space magic has been regarded as the magic of God, that is the magic that belongs to the gods, mortals are unattainable heights, even if it is a law saint, it is the same, but there are still so many well-known space magicians on the continent, but their existence is more like a legendγ
But if you want to talk about the existence of space magic instruments, this is very common in the Fury Continent, that is, the storage ring that people commonly use, that is a space that can be opened with only a little magic power, but this space is large and small, and it can only place dead things, and living things can't be put down at all, but if it's meat, even if it's fresh meat, what kind of thing is put in, most of them can come out of it, and it rarely breaks.
But space magic tools are not the same as space magic, so even the ghost ugly has not seen the real appearance of space magic, zero said this, he naturally heard it inexplicably, but the ghost ugly knows that he is not as much as zero knows on the basis of magic, after all, he is a person who has been a pope, and his insight is not comparable to ordinary people.
"Yes, if it's space magic, then everything you encounter is normal, and in this space, we can't escape no matter what we do, unless the caster is in contact with magic, or your magic is strong enough to directly fight against space magic, but no matter which one it is, you can't do it now, it seems that someone wants to trap us, the Kotler Empire is a magic empire, and someone who is proficient in space magic should be able to say that it is reasonable, but to say that in order to entertain us, I think it is not unjust to die like this." γ β
After hearing this, the ghost shook his head for a while, as if he didn't agree with everything Zero said, "I think this is a space magic instrument with special functions, this magic tool contains space magic, in addition, there should be a control of mental power, if you are alone, I am afraid that what you see is not these dead trees, but other things about yourself, to put it simply, we are not in someone's magic, but in a person's space magic device!"
As soon as the words fell, I heard a hearty laughter, the sound was like substance, constantly hitting the scene in front of me, this laughter shook the earth, but it was mixed with a little pride, but the sound was very loud, but I couldn't see anyone at all.
"Little doll, you can recognize my ten steps in such a short period of time, it seems that you are also a talented descendant. β
