"You...you just took a sip of water?"
"Yes, just water from a well."
"Then the space changed?"
"Uh...even if you ask me why this is happening, I can't possibly answer you..."
Looking at the sky, which seemed to be unchanged, the woman glanced helplessly at her innocent-looking teammates, then walked to a wooden sign dumped on the roadside with her sword in hand: "How could there be such a game... Maple Bridge?
"
"This... seems to be a design drawing." The magician player's eyes still stayed on the paper held in his hands, but a subconscious explanation gradually came from his mouth: "This paper still retains magic power.
That’s why it can be preserved in such an environment for such a long time, but compared with what it records, this magic power is nothing at all.”
"This is a... theoretical design drawing about space folding." He frowned and said word by word: "Using... the form of a magic array."
"What is space?" Huanhai Kuangxing scratched his face: "Can you use a language we can understand?"
"You don't even understand this?" The big man in black armor on the other side sneered disdainfully: "Isn't it enough to just take it literally? Isn't that... the situation we are encountering now?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the space of this village has been manipulated." Fengqiao listened to the rain and said to himself: "This end and the other end of the village are connected together, so we can't go out, at least use
The normal method…”
"Everyone already knows this kind of thing." The strong man squatting on the ground raised an arm and waved it feebly: "Can you give me some constructive suggestions?"
"Flow diversion, rhombus splicing, such a ring design... is it an illusion? No, no... it should be some kind of locking. There is a Grenilin lock here, which should be used to prevent resonance between the two energy flows.
…”
"Hey, wake up." Tiannanxing sighed again: "You're not really a person who studies magic, so don't torture everyone, okay?"
"I... need to see the prototype of that magic circle, so that I can see more things." Fengqiao Tingyu looked at it for a while, and then raised his head: "This thing... should be the ancient magic empire.
Many of the designs left over from the times are unheard of..."
"You don't need to study its principles, you just need to tell us... how to use it." Xueling Huanbing's voice then sounded from a corner of the road: "That's enough."
"Or just dismantle it." Huanhai Kuangxing twisted his fist: "This thing... is our goal to complete the game, right?"
"...I don't know yet." Fengqiao Tingyu put down the paper in his hand: "But...it's better not to use violence. What kind of consequences it will lead to...no one knows."
"That kind of thing... will come later." The woman lowered her eyes and said, "Let's confirm where this thing is first... Maple Bridge, can you find it?"
"The flow of magic is still very chaotic." The mage player shook his head again: "It should be due to the influence of this magic circle, which may cover all parts of this village..."
"Yeah, this guy is probably useless."
Sighing and saying these words, Huanhai Kuangxing shook his head and turned his attention to the prisoner next to him: "Okay, passerby, it's your turn again."
"Ah? What? I, I have already told you what I know..."
"this thing."
The half-armored man pointed at the page in Fengqiao Tingyu's hand and showed a stern smile: "...Where did you find it?"
"In the……"
"Hurry! Or I'll break one of your fingers!"
"Wow! Wait, wait a minute, I didn't find this thing, it was... someone from our team, he... he found it, I don't know where he found it!"
"Stop talking nonsense to me! Don't you even report where you found the things?" Huanhai Kuangxing's eyes flashed fiercely: "Do you think we are stupid?"
"Brother, please forgive me! I, I just know that direction. That was the direction Mu Mu was responsible for before. I don't know anything else..."
"...Ur."
"There is no change in that direction, but due to time constraints, I did not search every room." The short player named Nanwu heard the sound and replied: "If there is any change, it should be inside the house."
"Come out, let's go look for it."
Xueling Huanbing once again made the final decision: "Since we can meet them, maybe we are already in each other's space, and the ruins over there... should be somewhat different."
"The clues in the hands of both sides may really be different."
The same argument also appeared among the spectators watching this game outside the field. In addition to more and more players who noticed this strange game, there were also many professionals who had noticed these games in the first place.
.In addition to Duan Qing, many people who focus on collecting game intelligence are also paying attention to the news of this game. The seats in the front dedicated to Jianghu have been whispering to each other for a long time, and several people in Wizard on the side have also begun to discuss related matters.
As for the magic space, Lanshan's Cangyun Barrier gathered several teammates nearby early, as if they wanted to hold a meeting to discuss how they should deal with such a situation without a magician, and the world's No. 1 player who had just been teleported out of the game
The second-class people also turned their attention to the strange and lifeless scene on the screen after being reminded by others. As the host, the leading players of Wings of Freedom naturally did not let go of the game in front of them, which still had no winner.
The game progressed, but unlike the sad faces of several other people, a certain man had an inexplicable smile on his face.
"Brother Yu, what are you laughing at?"
"Ah? Am I laughing?" Liangchen Meiyu touched her chin, then waved her hand: "You must have seen it wrong..."
"You must have laughed." A certain brother sitting next to him smiled obscenely: "Is it... the weapon in Sister Xue's hand..."
"Shh!" She hurriedly made a gesture of silence. Liangchen Meiyu looked around and then smiled again: "If you know, don't mess up. It will be bad if the people in the meeting hear it..."
"Hehehehe." The man nodded to show his understanding, and then asked quietly again: "Brother Yu, how did you succeed this time?"
"Humph, it's just a trick." Liangchen Meiyu shook her head and replied: "I didn't give it to her specifically, it was just a weapon I eliminated..."
"Wow, is this okay?"
"Let's learn how to pick up girls..."
"They're still far behind."
At the edge of the arena, Duan Qing, who was also shaking his head, read the same sentence proudly, and then in the girl's disdainful eyes, he waved his hand to the maid behind him: "Ninglan, give them both a lesson."
"Okay, sir." Ninglan who was behind smiled and nodded, and then spread her right hand as if to introduce: "According to the information we saw before, the moment when the space converged, it was the Crazy Star from the Illusion Sea who was holding the water and drinking it.
At that moment, considering the suspicion that the well had revealed before, we could basically conclude that that action was the key to the meeting between the two teams."
"So, that well is the magic circle itself." She smiled quietly: "At least it is also the center of the magic circle."
"Sister Xue should be able to see these things...right?" Mengzhu said hesitantly: "They had noticed something unusual about the well before..."
"Just because we can see it doesn't mean they can also see it." Duan Qing said in a high voice: "As the old saying goes, those who call the authorities are fans, not to mention that woman is born... ah!"
"Good words! Don't imitate Sister Ninglan..." Withdrawing her fist from Duan Qing's abdomen, the girl glared at the snickering red girl, and then said angrily: "And those were just seen by Sister Ninglan.
What comes out is not what you see..."
"Are you doubting my IQ?" Duan Qing jumped up immediately: "You can see such an obvious thing, why can't I see it? I also know... that the phenomenon is definitely not caused by drinking.
It’s coming out!”
"What are you doing? If it wasn't him who drank it, it could be..."
"If there is really a problem with the water itself, it should only be effective for him alone. How could it be the whole world? Can players still become special?" Duan Qing crossed his arms and said proudly: "So... two teams of people
The encounter must have been caused by other reasons, perhaps because the action of drinking water triggered a mechanism, or perhaps because the action of drinking water caused other conditions to change..."
He pointed at the advancing team on the screen and shouted slightly dissatisfied: "The reason why they listened to that person is probably because they wanted to get more information about these things from him. For example, their team was
What is the investigation and what findings are there, but we are not present, so there is no way to speculate on this...but!"
"No one can ignore the problem of that well!" Duan Qing slapped his palm on the wall: "It should be the same for the enemy people! But that person...the only guy who is still alive
, but he didn’t mention the well..."
"Don't you think there's a problem?"
"But at the beginning..." Qianzhihe next to him raised his finger and recalled: "I remember one of them was lying next to the well and watching..."
"What you are seeing is from the perspective of Xueling Huanbing. Of course you all think so." A mysterious smile appeared on Duan Qing's face: "If I... From the perspective of Muyu Team at the beginning, at that intersection
There is nothing in the center…”
"How will things turn out?"
"What?" The girl grabbed Duan Qing's arm: "How is this possible? Is this true?"
"The village is so big, and the long period of time before was enough for them to search the village, but in the last few minutes, those few people wandered around that intersection for a long time..." Ignoring Mengzhu's questions, Duan Qing
They continued to analyze on their own: "If I guessed correctly, they should have found clues on how to escape from the village, but they could not find the key water well, so they kept wandering near the intersection until...
Someone from Free Snow touched the magic and pulled the two teams to the same coordinates."
"How fair...the two teams each hold the key to escape, but neither team can crack the secret of the well on their own, so in the end...they still have to fight." The deep laughter slowly followed Duan Qing's words.
The ground rang: "And this... is probably the reason why that person hasn't given up yet."
"that person……"
Looking at the only remaining opponent who was being escorted by everyone, Mengzhu couldn't help but hold his hand: "Is it possible... is he still looking for a chance to escape?"
"It's not about running away." Duan Qing clasped his hands together: "It's about winning the game."
"right here?"
The woman's questioning voice finally came from the screen, and when she saw the other party's unconscious head, she twitched the corner of her mouth and waved her hand lightly, sending Nanwu and Fengqiao Tingyu in: "Heart trap."
"It's okay, if this guy dares to play tricks..." Huanhai Kuangxing on the side said ferociously: "I will make his life worse than death."
"Haha, hahahaha..."
Amid the dry laughter of the Mohist disciples, the remaining four people waited quietly beside the ruins for a while, and then saw the appearance of two figures amidst the vigilance and silence: "Captain."
"how?"
"We found a... record." After looking at the slightly embarrassed expression of the man being held in custody, Nanwu reported in a low voice: "The record mentioned that... a senior mage from the ancient magic empire once went into exile.
When we got here, we built a magic circle while resisting the pursuers."
"The records mention some of his diaries of staying in this place, as well as some of his contacts with local villagers." Fengqiao Tingyu continued: "Of course... there are also many professional terms that I didn't understand."
"Conclusion." Xue Ling Huan Bing asked in a low voice: "I just need a conclusion."
"Ahem..." Fengqiao Tingyu cleared his throat: "The conclusion is...this magic circle does use some kind of magic technology to separate the space between this place and the outside world, and the array eyes that operate this magic circle...
…That’s the well.”
"oh?"
"There are some marks mentioned in the record, about that well." Fengqiao Tingyu took two steps forward, and then handed an old piece of paper to the woman: "If I understand correctly, these
Numbers should represent..."
"Water level."
Several people looked at the source of the sound at the same time, and saw the Mohist disciple with a dejected look on his face and said dejectedly: "Okay, now that you are all here..."
"Those marks should refer to the water level of the well." He whispered: "That's what we all guessed."
"You?" The big man in black armor said in a deep tone: "Then why don't you run away?"
"We... didn't find the well." The man lowered his head and said, "Besides... we don't know how to operate those numbers and what their meanings are. Originally... we wanted to give it a try directly.
, but I haven’t found it yet, just, just..."
"Have you met us?" Huanhai Kuangxing laughed and said, "We are really destined, hahahaha!"
"Look." Duan Qing, who was outside the court, stretched out a finger: "He started to play tricks."
"Uncle! Think of a solution quickly!"
"Here we go again... What can I, a spectator, do?" Duan Qing curled his lips: "Don't panic, as long as your sister Xue is here, she should show up."
"Maple Bridge."
In the picture, Xue Ling Huan Bing looked back and forth at the paper in his hand, then turned to look at the magician: "Are you sure?"
"Almost, after all, I am a water magician." The latter nodded slightly, and then whispered in a low voice: "Why can't I always use magic..."
"Okay, brother, don't be resentful." Tian Nanxing patted him on the shoulder: "The rest is up to you."
He turned his head and glanced at the prisoner: "After all...there is still this guy."
"Hey!" Seeing everyone staring at him, the player named Mohist hurriedly raised his hand: "I have nothing! There are so many people watching outside, you Wings of Freedom can't say anything
And without faith…”
"never mind."
The eldest woman sighed, then shook her head and said: "Leave him alive. Anyway, the mission is to escape from the village. Killing one more person will not do any good."
"But what if..."
"I'll watch him."
Cold eyes swept around everyone, and the woman's tone became cold: "Just leave... Well, just to be on the safe side, you can go to the exit in advance and wait."
"Hey, you..." At the end, she hit the Mo family disciple on the chest with her sword: "Which direction is the entrance to the village you mentioned just now?"
"Here, over there..."
"No, no, no." Huanhai Kuangxing, who understood what the captain meant, waved his hands to block the opponent's move to leave, and then showed a strange smile: "You can't go."
"Just a few of us can go..."
