The first thousand one hundred and ninety-nine chapters
Compared to the crowd maze at the train station before.
The maze structure on the platform side is much simpler.
Except for spending some time moving left and right, Ronald spent almost no more time before he successfully crossed the platform and the first two tracks, and then came to the train where Patricia was sitting.
Kakaka——
And when Ronald opened the carriage door, what appeared in front of him was Patricia's trusting smile:
"Ronald, I knew you would find me."
Ronald smiled back:
"If I don't even have this level of tacit understanding, then I would be a huge disappointment?"
After saying hello, the two of them turned around and walked out of the car without any hesitation.
Both Ronald and Patricia are very active activists.
Now that the people have successfully reunited and the restrictions on Patricia's movement have completely disappeared, there is no reason to waste time here.
Then walked on the way out of the maze.
Patricia showed that she knew the road better than Ronald.
The fact is that although the swordsman girl was trapped in the train carriage at the station, she did not waste her time here.
At least through observation, Patricia has figured out part of the specific structure of the station maze, and now walking is as easy as taking a leisurely stroll.
Even Ronald, who just came here.
He unconsciously slowed down and followed Patricia.
"..."
"Ronald, how is the situation outside now?" Patricia walked out and asked Ronald beside her, "I am trapped in the train carriage, except for knowing this maze picture book world.
Apart from the fact that it was constructed by you, there is almost no information about it.”
In order to prevent Gwendolyn from attacking Patricia, Ronald dragged this guy directly out of the castle. So at this moment, Patricia's memory obviously still remains in Ronald's mind.
In the scene where Gwendolyn was taken out, the specific details of what happened were not known.
Faced with this situation, Ronald of course immediately explained:
"Patricia, actually this time the maze picture book was not developed under my leadership, but a game played by Gwendolyn and me - in which I, as the challenger, could move freely from the beginning, and
The goal is to find the people who were present in the banquet hall in the entire city of [Giorno]..."
Ronald explained the specific situation, and the expression on Patricia's face gradually became serious.
Just by hearing these descriptions, the swordsman girl understood the seriousness of the current situation.
It's okay for them, the magicians in the game.
But if the challenge really fails, no one knows what kind of unimaginable things Gwendolyn will do to this seemingly incomprehensible Gwendolyn!
Judging from just a few brief exchanges after contact...
Patricia subjectively believed that this would definitely not be a good outcome.
"..."
"So Ronald, what do you think we should do next?"
The two exchanged information while continuing to walk outside the train station.
When they left the maze of crowds and returned to the street, looking at the evening sky, Patricia continued to ask:
"I remember you said just now that Heroines is already acting alone?"
"Do we need to split up too?"
Ronald nodded first and then shook his head. He had different thoughts about Patricia:
"Heroise has been living in this city for several months. She is more familiar with the environment than we are, so there is no problem in moving alone. As for the two of us who are complete strangers here - it is better to move together and solve the maze like this.
At least I can still have someone to take care of me.”
Patricia nodded and approved Ronald's decision:
"No problem, then we will act together, but where is the next goal?"
"The Wanderers' Club." Ronald said the idea that he had already decided on. "Compared to other strange places, we might as well go to the Wanderers' Club first. At least we have gone there before to look for trouble with agents.
It’s considered a little bit of experience.”
Patricia has no problem with this:
"Wise choice, let's go."
"..."
Next, Ronald and Patricia went to the Wanderers Hall for the second time.
The two of them naturally encountered other mazes along the way, but with the cooperation of others, the speed of cracking was obviously much faster than before.
However, even so, the heavy mood gradually emerged as the sky turned dark.
Ronald knew it.
Time is the sword of Damocles hanging above your head.
The current situation seems to be that he has found Paprol, Heroines, and Patricia, and is halfway to the goal of succeeding in the challenge.
But you have to understand one thing -
It was daytime before, and the people Ronald was looking for were places he had been.
When the time turned to night, the surrounding environment was completely unfamiliar again.
I want to continue to crack the maze under this situation and find the target person smoothly.
No need to think too much.
That is definitely a difficult move that is infinitely more difficult than it would be in the afternoon!
Even if he analyzed it purely from a rational basis, Ronald even believed that the probability of finding the remaining three people before dawn was very small, or it would be an impossible task.
The only thing that can give him some confidence is to split up and act on Heroine at this moment.
If Heroines can find at least one target person within this time, then during the whole night of searching, Ronald will find two other targets in the city, and then Ronald will feel that there is a possibility of completion.
matter.
Just like that, Ronald and Patricia moved on.
They had been to the Wanderers' Hall before, so at least they made no mistakes in finding the way.
So, just when the sun left its last ray of light in the farthest corner of the sky, they stood in front of this large building again.
Ronald's heart skipped a beat when he saw that the homeless man could play.
——He felt something was wrong.
When I was looking for Heroins, the labyrinth picture book expanded the originally small shop several times, and the train station also actually underwent considerable changes.
And now this homeless club...
Apart from the picture book-like change in painting style, there is not the slightest difference in floor area and building volume.
Judging from the maze that Ronald encountered before.
As a place where a target person is hidden, this place is really not qualified.
Facing this situation, Ronald and Patricia looked at each other.
The swordsman girl saw the uneasiness in Ronald's eyes, but she did not expose it, but took the initiative to say:
"Ronald, let's go in and take a look first."
"What the situation is, I can only make a judgment after seeing it with my own eyes!"
