"Are you all right?"
Seeing Hulim approaching, Farna and Tairag secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time they were also frightened by the young girl in front of them who had unfathomable strength.
"Thank you, Lord Hulim. Thank you for returning in time."
"You're welcome," Hulim said. "Besides that, we've already made a preliminary investigation. The path of the maze has indeed changed. This is likely related to the recent large number of abnormalities in the maze."
"Maze changes?"
Farna frowned.
"I have heard of this matter, but isn't this a sealed maze? Sealed mazes are generally not affected by the outside world, right?"
"Indeed, the sealed labyrinth does not need to absorb miasma particles from the outside world."
Hulim explained,
"However, whether it's a sealed maze or a regular monster maze, their operation cannot be separated from the influence of the magical ley lines flowing beneath the earth. Furthermore, their structures share many similarities, so it's not impossible for the same problems to arise."
"... ...Yeah?"
Farna and Terrag only had a vague understanding of the theory of the maze, so they didn't understand the specific meaning behind Hulim's words, but it was enough for them to understand the surface.
"Sir Hulim, please tell us directly whether the previous map is still valid?"
"The previous map should still be useful."
Hulim answered,
"According to my investigation, although the maze's paths have undergone many changes, its general structure has not changed, so the original map's orientation is still correct."
Hearing this, the two felt relieved.
"In that case, there's no need to worry too much. Most of the time, we don't know the route when we go down a maze. It's good enough to know the correct direction." Terrag said.
"That's what I said, but there's only one day left. I don't know if it's too late..."
After thinking about it, Farna said again,
"Those nine sealed areas are all located deep within the floors, but because they are located in different places, the distances of the routes vary. Starting from this floor, there are different routes to take."
"In my opinion, we should split up now and each choose our own shortest route to save some time."
Hearing this, Tairag thought for a moment and nodded.
"Alright, then we'll split up."
The two looked at Hulim again.
"I have no objection," said Hulim.
After that, the three of them officially began to act separately.
... ...
The middle area of the maze.
Snap, snap...
The sound of footsteps echoed clearly in the silent and dark maze.
The rhythm is clear, neither fast nor slow, at the same time,
Unconcealed, as if a provocation.
Even if they didn't see the owner of the footsteps, the monsters lurking in the darkness could sense the other party's casual posture from the footsteps.
I simply don't take them seriously...
Even the undead monsters with extremely limited IQ felt an unfamiliar emotion called anger at this moment.
"roar--!"
“Roar…”
The roars that rose one after another echoed throughout the maze.
Monsters swarmed out from all directions, determined to crush the intruder.
Gradually, they saw.
I saw a figure walking in the darkness.
Small, fragile, and alone.
This petite body is extremely rare among the occasional invaders, and it looks very weak at first glance.
They couldn't wait to tear her apart.
Just as the monster in front was about to reach the invader.
Sudden.
Daybreak...
A few minutes later.
The maze returned to silence, and footsteps were heard again.
Snap, snap...
As always, neither hurried nor slow.
Moving deeper into the maze...
Meanwhile, in another part of the maze.
Click, click...
An entire team of undead monsters were marching in formation through the complex corridors of the maze. The crisp sounds of skeletons and armor colliding echoed in this dark and silent space.
Click——.
At a certain moment, the leading high-level undead monster suddenly stopped.
It shook two balls of dark green flames deep in its eye sockets and looked around.
“Roar…”
It growled in confusion. It felt a strange breath here, but couldn't find where it came from.
The superior undead monsters with limited comprehension abilities, out of instinct, stubbornly stayed where they were and searched for suspicious enemies. However, the other undead monsters with poor perception abilities who had not noticed any unusual auras began to become restless.
Instinct urged them to continue patrolling, but the leader of the team stood in front of them.
At first they were able to suppress their instincts and stay put, but gradually some of them began to become restless.
Click...
The first undead monster appeared, attempting to move forward.
Just as it was about to hit the commander, it stopped again.
Soon, the second one appeared, and the third one...
Such situations became more and more frequent, and gradually all the undead monsters became restless.
They pushed each other forward.
Even though the strict hierarchy means they will never offend those in higher positions, they cannot withstand the push from behind.
