Extraordinary Sailing

The four of them stopped and waited for a while.

The ethereal and distant singing that surrounded their ears has gradually dissipated, but the evil spirit of the little girl has never reappeared.

Afterwards, Aiwen angrily pulled out the coward hiding behind him:

"The little evil spirit girl asking for help? Have you seen that Atrian evil spirit?"

Milan smiled embarrassedly:

"Yeah, you don't know, she really surprised me when she spoke to me suddenly."

After Milan and Aiwen, who had also witnessed the true face of the evil spirit girl, exchanged information, several wizards in the team couldn't help but feel a little bit interested in her.

An evil spirit that still retains a clear self means great value to wizards, and may even provide another shortcut to immortality.

Moreover, this evil spirit, who claims to be the priest and saint of Feathered Serpent God, is different from her Atrian compatriots, and still retains the appearance of a human being. Listening to the meaning conveyed in her singing, not all the upper-class people in the Kuma Empire (priests are also members of the upper-class dignitaries) have been transformed into "blasphemers" because of their pursuit of eternal life.

There are still some people who choose to retain their human identity and their belief in the Feathered Serpent God Kukulkan.

At least until they die.

According to normal logical thinking and reasoning, if these people can protect themselves, the Kuma Empire, which was in full swing for a while, would not be able to perish quietly like this.

The ballad also conveys several key messages.

First, we enshrine the noble snake god, who is in charge of sunshine and rain, sowing and harvest, life and civilization

This illustrates the series of functions and powers of Feathered Serpent.

Second, I hate living sacrifices and blood sacrifices, as long as the people return with kindness and prosperity.

It shows that the blood sacrifice of the Kuma Empire has become a scapegoat, and the main god will not bear it.

The third, and most interesting, is here.

The god in the mist stole a pair of wings from the snake god, and the great father could never return to the sky.

"I" was born in the mist, in the kindness of the people, and in the wings of the gods, let the "life" return to the earth, and continue to protect the people on that land.

The "god in the mist" is obviously Erhort, the god of the labyrinth, or Roigor, the master of the sea of ​​mist.

Of course, according to the current situation, the possibility of the former is obviously higher, but the latter is not completely without suspicion, and there may even be a conspiracy between the two parties.

But what exactly they stole from Feathered Serpent God is hard to guess. And I don't know if it's because I have some scruples in Elholt's territory, or I just don't want to tell them, the little girl's evil spirit didn't tell them explicitly, but used a metaphor.

But it is certain that this must be an extremely important thing, even so important that even a demigod cannot return to "heaven".

In the end, combined with the original intention of asking for help, the little girl obviously wanted the help of her group to bring something referred to as "life" out of the "sea of ​​mist" and send it back to the mainland.

Aiwen and the others were not sure whether this wise little girl evil spirit only found them, or asked everyone who entered the maze for help.

But after all, this is the standard territory of evil gods. Although the powerful force can make them pass unimpeded for a while, even Anita and Aiwen, who are as strong as the third level, have self-knowledge.

In the eyes of an extraordinary fifth-level evil god, there is probably no difference between existences below the fourth level.

The hope of a group of people escaping lies in the "rules of the game" formulated by Eihuote himself, not in the force they rely on, so it is best not to do redundant things if they can.

"Let's ignore her for the time being, and leave this ghost place safely before thinking about other things."

The players unanimously agreed.

subsequently.

Until they broke through the second floor as quickly as possible, they didn't see the little evil spirit girl appearing again.

The second floor of the maze is much smaller than the first floor, and it is a group of underground mines in a mess.

There are only one "earth burrower" that can fill the entire tunnel here. In fact, their size is already comparable to small sea monsters.

Maybe these intricate mines are their masterpieces.

There are dozens of streamlined tentacles growing on the head of the "Earth Burrower", like a sticky octopus, and the soft gray-black body behind it is like a big stretched cloth bag. There will be piercing sound waves before it appears, and it is guessed that it should be a perception method to adapt to the dark environment underground.

Some huge monsters even replaced the existence of tunnels, using their own body cavities to form all kinds of flesh and blood tunnels with the same surface but no entry and exit.

To deal with these huge and slow-moving monsters, Aiwen's [Blood and Flesh Collapse Technique] shined brilliantly, and easily cut out a path that was sufficient to pass through the walls of flesh.

When approaching the exit of the second floor maze.

As the "blasphemers" said, probably every wave of people needs to randomly experience the triple test of strength, wisdom, and luck. After experiencing the test of the power of the maze on the previous level, they ushered in the test of wisdom at the end of the second level:

Two farmers brought a total of 100 eggs to the market to sell. Both of them sold for the same money.

The first person said to the second person: "If I had as many eggs as you, I could sell them for 15 copper coins." The second person said: "If I had your eggs, I could only sell them for 6 and two-thirds copper coins."

Ask them how many eggs each have?

For this world where the literacy rate of countries is generally below 1%, mathematics is definitely a high-end knowledge.

Putting it outside, this question is already a nightmare difficulty enough to make countless people scratch their heads, but to Aiwen, it is only at the elementary school level.

After only three to five seconds, he snapped his fingers.

"Yes."

Showing off my IQ in front of everyone, the next team of four thought of the answer was Olivia and Milan, and then uh, ahem, in short, it was easy to pass the level.

Arrive at the third layer of the labyrinth, where the area has been reduced a lot again.

In addition to the targeted monsters, the biggest feature is that the maze itself is composed of various indestructible mirrors, flat, concave, convex, and uneven distorting mirrors.

There is not much left of that grotesque and distorted architectural style. The various straight lines and arcs that have replaced them are still chaotic, but they are already the works that some crazy artists among human beings can design.

In the mirror maze.

The figures reflected in some mirrors will jump out to attack the owner, and some mirrors are connected to the intricate mirror world, and if you are not careful, you will be completely lost in it.

Fortunately, there is a "golden compass" that points to the way of life at any time to clear the way, but there is no danger.

In the last level, facing a bunch of plane mirrors that may send them to various desperate situations, there is no need to worry about following Milan, who is now full of luck, and win directly.

In the process, they also confirmed that there are established rules everywhere in this maze, and the god of the maze, Elhort, has also broken away from their inherent impression of most of the ancient gods being extremely chaotic.

And starting from the second floor, the taste of order in the maze became more and more serious, and by the third floor, the transformation from chaos to order was almost completed.

It also further confirmed the initial speculation of Ivan and Olivia that the God of the Labyrinth, Eihuote, deliberately reshaped his priesthood through such a ceremony, and then moved from the chaotic ancient god to the order side.

This is good news among bad news for them.

because.

Prepared by their strong team, the first three levels hardly hindered them, and it took less than three hours in total. They are about to face the last hurdle, which is what the blasphemers call "the choice before God"!

Even in order to confirm the accuracy of the information, they found an opportunity to sneak attack a few waves of blasphemers, and the results of the torture were no different from those on the first floor.

A powerful existence that can figure out the context is much stronger than a crazy and grotesque indescribable.

call--

Riding on the inexplicable wind blowing from below, the four of them slowly landed on the fourth and last floor of the maze.

Until now, the little girl's evil spirit has no intention of reappearing.

It's just that the song will be sung every time I go to the maze, and the group who made up their minds never responded to her.

"So. How do we go next?"

Looking at the scene on the fourth floor, Milan looked around a little bit at a loss.

Because the fourth floor and the first three floors are completely two extremes, no matter how simple a path is in the front, you can’t wait for eighteen pleats, but on the fourth floor of the inverted pyramid maze, it is a place where you can see the border at a glance. smooth water surface.

Visually, it is about the same size as the first 5 or 6 square kilometers of the small island outside.

Even the walls around and above the head are made entirely of running water, nothing but water.

but.

Milan's voice just fell, because the ripples under their feet disturbed the calm of the water and triggered the response mechanism here.

clatter la la la

A huge and luxurious rock arch fully in line with human aesthetics slowly rises from the water, and the clear sea water flows down the surface of the arch.

Every radian, every notch, and every detail on the arch seems to be shaped according to the strictest design standards, perfectly fitting human geometry, and even the wonderful golden ratio.

There is a tall and solemn building standing in the clear water. Everyone who sees it can feel the strong mathematical beauty, just like the monument built by the country and the solemn and sacred church building.

People can't help but hold their breath.

Moreover, the material has also changed from the gray-white rock that formed the maze at the beginning to pure white marble, which seems to imply some kind of profound transformation.

When the changes stopped, the group of four recovered from the extreme contrast.

Drya——

In a mantra that resonates with the water world and is full of vitality.

The water under the four people's feet swelled, forming a round head and a long tail. In the blink of an eye, they had turned into a naive big whale.

【Witchcraft·Secondary Elemental Spirit】

"Go, let's go!"

Ivan waved his hand lightly, and the whale formed by the water flicked its tail, carrying four people to the huge arch.

On it, in gilt-like fonts, is written a spiritual script that every transcendent can recognize:

"Offer a sacrifice, as you wish.

—The ruler of all labyrinths, the impartial rule-maker, the great and generous god Elhot. "

This is the most intuitive hint they have seen since they went deep into the maze, but it is still vague and ambiguous like Elholt's style.

"Google."

Milan swallowed lightly, he had already learned the importance of this "decision before God" from Ivan and the others.

Alvin raised his palm.

The water flow controlled by the water elemental whale surged accordingly, and the arch in the water has been gradually pushed open a gap.

At this moment.

"stop!"

There was a sudden explosion in the air, which made people's eardrums buzz like a thunderbolt.

Whoosh—

The smoky fighting atmosphere still remained on his body, and there were downsizing behind him, leaving only the "Oath Breaker" Bradley, who was accompanied by three people, flying down from the sky.

Apparently their final test is: Strength!
