When Weiwei was left behind, she heard the system prompt:

[The player has entered [Instance: Minos Labyrinth (Damaged)]]

[In the maze, players will encounter monsters like Minos that chase you, and they will also encounter a maze with no exit. At every turn, you may enter a different room, and an owl is staring at you. Your behavior will affect the next branch trigger.]

[In the broken state, the hypnotic effect of the current maze is greatly reduced]

[Instance Clearance Rewards: Goat House Enhancement x1, Transparent Card x1]

If you want to kidnap a game player, at least make sure that the other party has no map, no teleport, no space package, no chat interface, no... Forget it, don't kidnap him.

Vivi really doesn't know the exit of the maze, but she has at least seven or eight ways to destroy Owl's maze - Owl doesn't understand her, and she would have a headache if the one who wanted to deal with Vivi was a hero from the Batman series.

The wall is seven or eight meters high. She has no weapons or grappling guns, but she has a water pipe and a hammer. This is because when she was a vigilante, Vivi did not show any extraordinary human qualities. She only used force to deal with criminals (she practiced skills). Therefore, in the eyes of the public, "Night Watch" and Batman are on the same path.

Weiwei opened the map first——

There is no map for the unexplored underground. Currently, Weiwei can see that she is in the basement of the town hall, but there is no huge maze here on the map.

The people in the court couldn't be seen on the map, but Weiwei knew they must be watching her.

——"She's awake."

——"Yes, observing the surroundings like a small animal."

At the Harbor House, a message came from Winster's eavesdropping device and appeared in the form of text on Vivi's panel.

"I don't like animals like owls. They don't build their own nests, but steal the nests of other birds. But Gotan City is not theirs..." Weiwei's fingers drew across the uneven and mottled wall, walked into the lighted room at the end, and scanned every photo on the wall.

There were countless strangers, but there were also familiar faces among them, such as a former president of Columbia University, a philanthropist. When she went to the school to "borrow" something, she activated his data card, and the data card recorded that he had disappeared in his prime and had never appeared again.

The court eliminated many people silently, not all of them using the simple and crude method of "assassination". Sometimes, compared to the method of assassination that provokes the nerves of citizens, making them "missing" can give them more time to divide up the property and power left by the enemy. Occasionally, the maze can also be used to destroy the enemy's mind.

Assassinated, missing, no, make them "go crazy".

The words of madmen are not credible at all, so some people will be found shortly after they disappear, but their souls will always wander in a maze that they can't get out of, they become crazy, and their families will soon fall into defeat.

Weiwei walked to the end and stared at the photo in front of her——

It was her own face in the photo.

The brown-haired girl had a sarcastic expression that she never normally had, and her green eyes were cold, as if the dead were staring at the living.

"It's my turn..."

A sigh suddenly sounded in the room, and the tone was exactly the same as Weiwei's own.

Countless transparent messages appeared on the system panel. Weiwei couldn't see them when she opened the panel, but the messages did exist.

[The player is under mental attack from "synthetic photos", "synthetic language" and "hypnosis"]

[Mental resistance is a hidden attribute, and the attack result is being determined.]

[If the mental resistance is higher than the attack strength, the player will not be affected at all]

[If mental resistance is equal to attack strength, the player's mental resistance will be reduced by the attack value]

[If the mental resistance is lower than the attack strength, the player will fall into hallucination]

[Player Mental Resistance: 0 (You can be easily defined, destroyed, and reshaped. You have no self, so naturally you don't have a spirit) / N 1 (No matter how strong the attack is, your resistance is always a little higher than the attack strength)]

【Attack invalid】

Information disappears as quietly as it appears.

Weiweisi was not affected at all. She took down the recorder and hung it around her neck. Then she took away the stand and swung it around like a stick, muttering to herself, "It's too light. It's not very convenient to hold."

Finally, she took down the photo on the wall, folded it, put it in her pocket, and walked out of the room.

The owls lurking in the dark: "..."

——"She didn't react at all?"

——"The props are ineffective. The hypnotic symbols on the wall, the colorless and odorless gas in the air, and the mental influence we exerted, all have no effect?"

——"…Is everyone here at the big house? I have to invite them to see what's going on. It's very interesting. The show has already started early."

In the next room, Weiwei saw the hanging wooden figures. The puppets had no faces, but their clothes were very familiar. Some were dressed like Anna, some like Bella, and some were playing Millie, Shelk, Violin, etc. Directly below was a white relief that looked like a town hall. The bleak light shone on the puppets, and the shadows they cast enveloped the miniature version of the town hall.

Weiwei still didn't react.

No, there are still some...

“These people in the courtroom,” she thought, “could be used to create movie sets.”

This place is just like a movie theater, and Weiwei got a single VIP ticket. All the scenery was prepared for her, and the experience was quite real, which even the most advanced haunted houses could not achieve.

She understood what the picture before her wanted to convey——

They will be destroyed, they will definitely be sacrificed, they will be hanged like criminals, and the deaths of these people will be related to Vivi and Mr. C behind Vivi. The so-called good deeds are nothing more than letting those who follow him go to the end of death one after another - this is to break her psychologically.

But, let’s be honest…

The space horror hasn't even been recorded yet, but at least there's the background music of heavy rain and thunder, and the changing scene lights created by real thunder, instead of just making up a scene in a room underground.

She lifted up the stand she had just obtained, took off her outer cloak, broke the stand apart, tied it together with the cloak, threw it up, and pulled down the wooden man hanging on it. A series of puppets were pulled down, beyond the expectations of the Owl Court... The girl did not have a mental breakdown, did not attack the wood, and did not overreact.

——She took off all the clothes of the wooden figures, and then put the naked wooden figures together, with two of them lying on the ground hugging each other, three standing there pointing at them, and another one making a sprinting motion, and then two people ran over and tried to grab it.

What a vivid and lifelike scene of catching an adulterer!

Next, Weiwei tested the strength of the rope by tying up all the other wooden figures together, and then tied pieces of clothing to the other end of the rope one by one. Every time she threw the clothes, she would throw them to the other side.

So, the hemp rope was stretched straight above the wall of the maze, and the girl went around to the other side and grabbed the end of the clothes - she was about to climb to the top of the maze wall.

The owls were finally enraged.

The guy who likes to be in control is used to manipulating others and is used to everything being planned.

If Vivi used her extraordinary powers, such as teleportation, great strength, or various special abilities that ordinary people don't have, they wouldn't be so angry. But Vivi didn't suffer the mental attack that was once invincible, and then she searched for the exit in the maze in a way that ordinary people who have been trained can do.

This is almost a mockery, mocking the Owl's persistence and arrogance. Ordinary people with strong spirits can also defeat them.

These bird people were really angry.

After the rage came a strange panic.

The girl on the screen had already started climbing, and the owls were watching coldly. When she was about to reach the top, the rope broke as expected. She was only one step away from hope but fell into despair again. However, the girl did not show any dejected expression - it was beyond the owls' expectations, but also the same as what the owls had expected.

Some people breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt that this was exactly what they expected.

She is not desperate, so how can you destroy her?

——“…”

There were a lot more people on the map of the Harbor House. Winster had already consciously stood in the corner. There were too many important people present and he had no right to sit down.

Of course Weiwei wouldn't be destroyed... Nonsense. Not to mention that Weiwei has plenty of ways to leave. Even if she's not dead, she's been trapped here with an ordinary person template. Can't she log off?

The broken rope was not useless. She tied the rope around her waist and continued to walk deeper into the maze.

Weiwei guessed that the owls must be getting annoyed.

Yes, Vivi was trying to provoke them.

The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, and the number of people is unknown, so she needs to use herself as bait to lure out everyone.

Just look at what owls do.

Born wealthy and blessed by heaven, they think they are in control of everything. They like to watch the pain of others and torture them for fun to confirm their dominance. They are arrogant, conceited, and hidden in the dark. When they are sure that the prey cannot resist, they can't help but appear in front of the prey. If the hunting difficulty of this prey is much stronger than before, then this desire to watch will be stronger... This is the only way to attract these birds who occupy the nest of the magpie and the rats in the gutter.

"Those people in the Harbor House are not all of them, and I can't let Batman capture them, nor can I let 'Vivi' really die in front of the people of Gotham City... Enraging them is an invitation. When anger breaks through reason, these guys will definitely choose to witness and watch my complete collapse up close."

As for the map, the Harbor House is not far from the room where Weiwei was first imprisoned. It is the gathering place of the owls.

Weiwei will never let herself be passive all the time, she will take the initiative.

After faking a small explosion in the suburbs, Violin hid himself and only spread the news that he was suspected of being killed on the street. At present, if we don't conduct a special investigation, we will not be able to know this news - in the eyes of some insiders, Violin is dead, but his men pretended that he was not dead.

And Tal changed into the Claw's uniform and returned to the organization instead of the Claw who went to assassinate Millie... Sometimes Vivi always wondered if Tal had really lost his memory, but William, who was driving in South Hinckley, didn't seem to want to return to the organization.

She stayed in the maze for a full seven hours. During that time, Vivi saw the blurry figure of Mr. C, but she could tell at a glance that it was an electronic projection, a fake. She saw a person wearing an owl mask, but he disappeared after she walked past. Obviously, it was a visual deception. She found that she had gone around in circles several times and returned to the original starting point. She also saw an owl statue. The statue was very rough, not as delicate as the stone sculpture of Batman or Vivi's own wood sculpture. After judging it, she even climbed onto the statue and "slept" for a while, feeling as leisurely as if she was at home - she had to pretend that she was a normal person who needed rest and food, so that hunger and fatigue could also destroy her.

Gotta give owls some hope.

The girl in the "sleeping dream" showed a faint smile——

Just like the broken rope, Weiwei also knows how to torture other people's spirits... hope is right in front of them, but they miss it again and again, which brings real despair.

While closing her eyes and resting, Weiwei felt the cold wind coming.

Sharp claws emerged from behind her, the blade aimed at Weiwei's chest.

She was unarmed, weak, and exhausted, and at first glance she was an ideal target for torture.

I won, Weiwei thought as she looked at the map. Going with the flow was to collect data rather than actually letting the enemy achieve their goal. The vigilantes in Gotham would never, ever die ridiculously on the stage of a magic show because of criminals. She appeared here to stop everything in advance.

Weiwei knew that the owls' eyes were now focused on her.

——"Our goal is just to clip Alec's wings. Don't be impulsive."

——"So you're going to bow your head in front of a little girl?"

——"If she was killed in public, when everyone thought it was a show, a magic trick, and watched her end with laughter, would she be afraid, would she cry, would she desperately ask for help?"

——"No, she would laugh at us."

The sharp claw's long knife pierced Vivi's chest, but the girl was not afraid at all. She smiled and sent a message to Winter on the system interface.

[Cover your ears.]

[Close your eyes.]
