Originally, the difficulty of this [Cemetery] maze was not that outrageous.

The normal puzzle-solving procedure is for the hunters to first solve the problem of the skeleton monsters in the maze, whether it is through push and pull, card sanity, or other methods, until they find clues similar to the adventurer's notes in the monster pile.

Then go and hide the plot.

This is a long process that requires careful exploration.

With the clues, even if you encounter the [Secret Keeper] later, your death will not be certain.

But now someone directly triggered the hidden plot, which led to everyone facing a dead end as soon as they entered.

Because Ji Xun's san value was stuck as soon as he entered, he was lucky enough to find some clues.

But the death crisis still exists.

...

The magical thing about the maze is that it is a "maze".

Before you walk through it, you have no idea where the corridor leads.

Even if you deliberately avoid it, after going around in a big circle, you may find yourself back where you were.

Also, if you deliberately avoid some passages that seem to lead in two completely different directions, you may still find that the two passages converge at some point in the future.

Ji Xun carefully avoided the direction from which the fighting news came.

But as he walked, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

In his mind, he has drawn a route map through the maze like a QR code. Although it is only a corner of the maze, it will not let him take the same path again.

However, some channels in my brain became increasingly deviated and gradually converged in one direction.

He tried his best to avoid it, but he couldn't stop others from running around in the maze.

After walking through a few forks in the road, Ji Xun suddenly heard the sounds of fighting coming from the corridor, even though they were already far apart.

"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...

The sound of fighting like a thunderstorm came from all directions.

The only people who could make such a big noise were the main force of the group at the Governor's Mansion.

Ji Xun suddenly felt that something was not good and wanted to avoid it.

But no matter whether he walked back or chose another corridor, the movement was still getting closer and closer.

Ji Xun frowned as he listened, and said to himself: "It seems there is no way to avoid it..."

After identifying the direction from which the sound came, he realized that the nearby corridors seemed to be connected corridors.

In other words, no matter which way you go, it seems that you may lead to the direction from which the battle is coming.

Those guys were moving very fast, the sound of fighting was getting louder and louder, and they seemed to be in the corridor next door in the blink of an eye.

After deducing the route map in Ji Xun's mind, he knew that no matter what choice he made, he might encounter problems, so he simply didn't choose it.

He thought of the description of the "Secret Keeper" in his notebook, and he no longer chose to avoid it. Instead, he made a decisive decision and took advantage of the situation to lie down in the corner of a dead end road and choose a place that was not easy to be stepped on.

Then, lift the corpse.

This was the only way he could think of to avoid danger.

Precisely because he did not run around hastily, Ji Xun also narrowly avoided this fatal crisis.

Not long after he put on the clown mask and lay down, there was a sudden "boom" at the end of the corridor.

Countless skeletons were exploded into pieces, splashing across the sky like a heavy rain.

Several bones "crackled" and hit Ji Xun on the ground, like shell fragments, causing people to take a breath of pain.

Fortunately, he chose a blind spot and crawled on the ground, so the impact was relatively minor.

Otherwise, if he were really on the main road, just the shock wave of the battle would probably kill half of his life.

Immediately after the explosion, Ji Xun watched three blue cards flying out of the corner wrapped in a cyclone. The cyclone flew bigger and bigger, turning into a jagged wind blade as big as a wheel.

Three wind blade vortices covered the same cross section, and the skeletons they passed were instantly cut into two pieces.

Just three high-level wind blade cards cleared the entire maze corridor of dozens of meters.

Then he heard the hissing sound of the steam boiler deflating after accumulating energy, and there was a loud "bang" sound, and large areas of skeletons in the entire corridor were crushed into powder.

The high-pressure detonation rolled like a dragon. Ji Xun was so shocked by the high-pressure aftermath that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood. He complained in his heart: "The firepower of these guys in the Governor's Mansion is really fierce...

."

The combat power of this group of people is indeed enough to sweep through the skeleton monsters in the maze.

However, the biggest advantage of skeleton monsters is their numbers. Once hatred is attracted, a chain reaction will occur.

As they pushed forward in this way, not only were there no fewer monsters, but they attracted more and more monsters.

Although Ji Xun didn't see many people for the time being, he heard the heavy footsteps and estimated that there were quite a few people.

Moreover, the footsteps were very panicky, and as soon as they heard it, they were running away in panic.

The only one who can chase this group of people is the [Secret Keeper].

...

"Protect the Governor!"

"Damn it, have you found the exit of the maze?"

"Not yet. The exit in the Hunter Guild's information has been blocked by a sealing stone."

"..."

During the battle, the voices of those guys were loud and could be heard far in the maze.

Those guys probably didn't expect that a D-level space would trap them here.

Listening to the sound getting closer and closer, Ji Xun lowered his breathing as much as possible.

After a few breaths, a gust of wind passed over his scalp, and he watched with slightly opened eyelids as a group of frost knights rushed over, guarding the fat-bellied governor. There were hundreds of them.

Just the momentum that burst out was like a torrent of steel.

The Frost Knights Legion is truly worthy of its reputation.

However, as soon as these groups of people left, the temperature in the huge corridor dropped sharply, accompanied by a thick smelly wind. The putrid smell was like a corpse crawling out of a tomb, and the corpse collector was all too familiar with it.

Even without looking, Ji Xun knew that the [Secret Keeper] was coming.

How terrifying is it to be able to chase a monster that can chase elite knights like the Governor's Mansion into panic?

Ji Xun suppressed his breathing very low and pretended to be dead quietly. At the same time, he was very curious in his heart.

Glancing slightly out of the corner of his eye, a black fog appeared in his field of vision.

In the thick black mist, tall figures riding rotten war horses passed quickly. Their skin had rotted to the point of being unrecognizable, leaving only bones and flesh connected. And the shriveled mouths were sewn with needles and threads, which made them look...

It gives people a sense of penetration. When this monster approaches, the surrounding air becomes heavy and distorted, making people feel inexplicably frightened.

【Secret Keeper】

Detailed explanation: Second-level S-level disaster; they are the guardians of the underground palace and the loyal secret keepers of the royal family; they are the undead knights who control destruction. They feed on the flesh, flesh and fear of living creatures and are immortal;

...

"It is indeed an S-level disaster..."

Ji Xun heard from hunters that all disasters above level A have some special abilities.

S-class disasters are monsters with some "special rules" given by extradimensional space.

This is usually a rule that cannot be beaten.

This is also the existence that hunters talk about.

From the current point of view, the rule given to the secret keeper is - immortality.

As long as the space is not destroyed, they will not die.

Regardless of its rank or ability, it is just the characteristic of "immortality". No matter how powerful the spell card master is, it has to hide away.

And the terrifying thing about this monster is not just its immortality.

Ji Xun just glanced at it, as if he had glimpsed something terrifying beyond recognition.

Even though he was in a state of mind that did not change in the face of death, at this moment he felt as if he had been pricked by a needle, and he was inexplicably shocked.

This does not mean that people can control fear subjectively.

Rather, it is an instinctive tremor caused by seeing some kind of indescribable demon.

Immediately, Enlightenment appeared.

"Eroded by unknown pollution, the clown mask is reduced by 70%. You have suffered fear 2, shock 1, and soul pollution 1."

"..."

That's it.
