"I used this concept to survive from the illusion of the source of trembling." Feng Bujue continued, "This is called 'reverse guidance'." He smiled, "Maybe the scene later became a bit
It's out of control, that's why the fearful heart said that."
"Okay, you don't need to go on, just pretend I didn't ask." Xiao Ma looked away.
"I'm not interested anymore..." Honghu also said. He was also helpless. Every time he teamed up with Brother Jue, his Sanity (Sanity, the player value of the Cthulhu Mythos table game, represents mental power or mind)
Just plummet...
Ever since, Brother Jue successfully deceived the matter once again... Then he changed the subject and led his teammates to move on.
This time, players are no longer searching aimlessly. Because before the Heart of Fear dies, it has revealed the way to the Cage of Despair.
In fact...the path of this crystal puzzle has a certain pattern, and this pattern is hidden in the surrounding crystal pillars.
Heart of Fear does not tell players all the rules. It only tells players one of them: when encountering a fork in the road (two or more are acceptable), stand at the center point between any two forks.
, calculate the distance between the tops of the first crystal column on the left and the second crystal column on the right, and the angle between the straight line between these two points and the ground. If these two values are within a certain range, it means there is no
Wrong go.
With this method, it doesn't matter if you face four, five, or even more forks, as long as you try two or two of them one by one.
Right now, Feng Bujue, Honghu and Tianma Xingkong are following this rule and constantly moving forward.
At first they walked very fast and smoothly. But after a while, the number of forks in the road ahead gradually increased, and the crystal pillars became more dense and complex, which made their speed begin to slow down.
Of course, this is also a normal phenomenon, because the closer you get to the center of the maze, the fewer roads that meet the conditions. There are many meaningless paths similar to mazes in the center of the maze, which are used to confuse outsiders.
To make a long story short, the trek took over four hours...
During this period, Feng Bujue and the others stopped to eat again and encountered several monsters. Fighting was naturally inevitable, and the three of them each paid a certain price, but fortunately there were no further casualties.
Finally, on the fifth hour...
"I said... this road seems to be very long." Feng Bujue, who was walking at the front, said.
Along the way, he still leads the way. Taking the lead in this darkness, he does have various advantages that others do not have.
"I'm a little doubtful whether we can go all the way..." Tianma Xingkong responded listlessly.
Obviously, after a long journey, various shocking plots without warning, and many difficult and tedious battles, Xiao Ma's morale has dropped to freezing point
"Could it be that... the heart of fear deceived us?" Honghu pondered, "Maybe it deliberately gave us a set of wrong theories and made us go around in circles?"
"We are not going around in circles." Feng Bujue replied. He seemed very calm and determined. He immediately asked, "Did you see repeated scenery along the way?"
"In my impression... none." Honghu replied.
Tianma Xingkong said: "I have no impression..."
Feng Bujue didn't need them to have an impression, because he remembered it very clearly, "I actually constructed a map in my mind. If I remember correctly... the route we took after killing the Heart of Fear.
It's roughly in the shape of a spiral." He raised his hand and gestured in circles, "We are approaching a certain 'center point', and... we are already very close."
Brother Jue's words are always convincing. Even if he can't provide any supporting evidence, his teammates are willing to believe him just by saying "I drew a map in my mind."
Even "Wise General" Hong Hu cannot deny that Kuang Bujue has this kind of personal charm...a temperament that makes people feel that they can rely on him in adversity.
"Ha... look." Not long after Brother Jue finished speaking, the searchlight in his hand illuminated something, "Things in this world just can't stand talking about."
Hearing this, Tianma Xingkong and Honghu both turned their heads and looked forward. Only to see...the crystal crust on the road ahead had been broken.
The three of them walked forward for about ten meters and came to the end of the path. What appeared in front of them... was a large pit with a radius of tens of meters, surrounded by towering crystal pillars, and the middle was pitch black.
, bottomless.
"Ah... Anyway, my searchlight can't shine to the bottom." As he spoke, Brother Jue raised his arm and punched the crystal pillar next to him.
The next second, he picked up a broken crystal fragment and threw it into the pit.
call--
This is the sound of crystal falling. And then... nothing more...
"Oh~ there's a bottomless pit..." Tianma Xingkong put his hands on his knees and leaned down to look down.
"Yes, there is Mrs. Diyong (the golden-nosed white-haired rat spirit in Journey to the West) living down there." Brother Jue complained, "I'm already ready to make a move...oh hoo~"
"'Oh hoo' is coming out of the mouth again..." Honghu muttered with the corner of his mouth twitching, "Let me tell you, now that Jibu has died, we may not all know the tricks you are playing. If you continue to make trouble like this, we will
Just treat it as if you are alone and acting crazy."
"Ha... forget it." Feng Bujue shrugged, "Anyway, I'll go down to this place first." After saying that, he took a few steps back and prepared to run.
[The current task has been completed]
[The main mission has been updated]
At this time, two consecutive system prompts sounded, slightly interrupting Brother Jue's actions.
The players each opened the game menu, checked the task bar, and saw that the item "Arrived at the Cage of Despair" had been checked.
The new task spawned below is: [Find a way to open the cage]
"What is going on here?" Tianma Xingkong thought, "This is obviously a pit, and there is no lid... How can it be considered 'open'?"
"Perhaps... the 'Cage of Despair' is not the pit itself, but is located somewhere under the pit." Honghu hypothesized.
Feng Bujue said, "Okay, I'll understand everything after I go down and take a look."
"No need." Suddenly, a strange voice sounded.
At the same moment, a hand was placed on Feng Bujue's shoulder.
"I'm here to help you open it, travelers from other worlds..." The man said again, and slowly emerged from the darkness.
