"Ten, nine, eight,..., three, two, one" As the notification sound counted down, the entrance door opened. The five of us almost ran in. After entering, everyone stopped in unison and looked around.
Looking at the situation inside. In front of us is a corridor that can only be passed by three people abreast. On both sides of the corridor are towering gray walls. The walls are covered with plants such as vines. The walls are mottled and there are large and small trees on the ground.
The road is paved with different gravels, but it's fairly smooth.
I looked at Linda and said: "Linda, your ability to detect frequency fields is the strongest. First, observe what is going on here." Linda nodded and began to concentrate on collecting the surrounding frequency fields.
Information, the rest of the people did not dare to act rashly, waiting for Linda's detection results.
After a while, Linda looked at everyone and said: "Except for some plant frequency fields and the frequency fields of a few of us, I really didn't perceive any special frequency fields, but there seemed to be a very weak frequency field.
It's resonating from time to time, and I'm a little confused now." We looked at each other, and Chiyoko spoke first: "Then let's move forward, we can't stay here forever."
So, everyone divided into two rows, front and back, and slowly started to walk forward. Jason and Wang Youyi walked at the front, followed by me, Linda and Chiyoko. I touched the wall that was eroded by moisture and looked at the gray color above.
The sky, I thought: It is obviously clear outside the castle, but the weather here is gloomy, which is really unusual.
I was thinking about it when Jason and Wang Youyi in front suddenly stopped. There was a three-way intersection in front of them. Jason and Wang Youyi were looking towards the other two intersections. The three people behind us also arrived at the intersection and looked around. On the left
The road on the side is similar to the road we came from, and there seems to be a door emitting orange light in the depths of the right road, which looks like an exit.
"No way, you reached the exit so soon?" Wang Youyi said in surprise. We all looked at each other, and we all couldn't believe what we were seeing. "If this is called a maze, it would be an insult to our intelligence."
Jason said loudly.
"But why do I feel like it's a trap? The one on the right can't be an illusion." I also said doubtfully, "Maybe it's just a mirage, tempting us to go there, but we will never get there.
.”
"I agree with your idea, Wan." Linda agreed, with a look of doubt on her face.
"But, what if it's true? Maybe the sub-realm is taking advantage of our doubts and trying to lead us to the left path." Chiyoko raised an objection.
Don't tell me, Chiyoko's worry is indeed justified. So how to choose this, everyone can't make up their mind. Linda said: "Everyone, don't move for now. I will detect the frequency fields of these two roads first."
Characteristics and then make a decision.”
"Okay, but in addition to detecting the frequency field, shouldn't we also go to these two roads to conduct actual surveys? We don't need to go too far, just have a general look at the situation, what about?" Jason suggested.
"Okay, then you and I will go check out the situation." I said to Jason. Jason nodded and said, "I'll go to the right, Wan, you go to the left."
So, the two of us split up, and I walked cautiously to the left road, thinking to myself: "I wonder what the situation is like with the other teams."
The same darkness, the same plants, the same confusing thing. This road is no different from the way we came. I didn’t perceive any special frequency field characteristics, except for the plants all over the wall.
.I suddenly had a flash of inspiration, oh, I’m so stupid, don’t I have anti-gravity boots? Why don’t I use them?
I lightly tapped my feet against each other, and my body was already floating off the ground. I followed the method that Andrew taught me before, and slid my feet alternately in the air. It was as simple as roller skating. As I slid, my height increased.
Keep rising, and gradually I can see the distance of the road, which is really not bad, if this boot is not like Andrew told me, its lift-off height is limited to about 3 meters below the height of the maze wall.
Okay, can't you see the location of the exit immediately? The key is that people in the sub-realm are not idiots, haha.
Suddenly, the sound of a frequency gun firing came from the right side of the wall, accompanied by a shrill scream as the harmonics produced after the frequency field was hit pierced the air, and then came people's noisy curses and painful cries.
There was a groan, and it was obvious that the team on the other side was under attack. I immediately pressed my body against the wall and nervously held the blast gun in my hand, looking around vigilantly.
I was nervously searching forward when the plants on the wall next to me suddenly moved and gradually formed a green wall in front of me. I almost bumped into it. Fortunately, I reacted too quickly and stopped in time.
Come down. However, I was still glad too early, because I found that not only was the front blocked by a plant wall, but I was also completely surrounded by plants, as if I was trapped in a cage, unable to move forward or retreat.
What's worse is that even the walls started to move, causing the green cage to start to rotate crazily, and 360 degrees of irregular rotation. At the beginning, I could still control the anti-gravity boots to keep myself in the cage.
I was in a suspended state in the cage, but with the acceleration of rotation, I was dizzy and kept bumping into the wall of the cage, bumping into all kinds of things. I couldn't wait to turn off the function of the anti-gravity boots, because that would cause a collision.
Even worse.
In a panic, I fired the frequency gun in my hand, hoping to open a gap and escape. However, the frequency gun was of little use against the plant frequency field. It only knocked off a few leaves, and I was already like a caged animal.
Like a hamster, he was thrown around in this crazy rotating cage, as if he was shaking the Lantern Festival.
Finally, the rotation stopped, and I got up in embarrassment. I could no longer tell the difference between east, west, north, and south, and I couldn't even determine which side was the ground. After calming down, I found that I was standing on the plant vines, and the leaves on the cage were still there.
It was shaking rustlingly, and leaves fell from time to time. Oh, no, why are there still leaves floating upward?
I looked along the leaves floating upward and saw that the top of the cage was covered with yellow gourd-shaped things about 10 centimeters long. This thing looked like an octopus tentacle covered with suckers.
The arms and legs stand like a seahorse on top of the plant cage, with translucent yellow skin. The proportions of the body and the head are almost the same, like two croquettes strung together. There are penguin-like upper limbs on both sides of the round body.
The end of the upper limbs are claws divided into three branches.
The same round head has disgusting earthworm-like ears wriggling on both sides, and two small eyes that look like yellow LED light bulbs are inlaid with black pupils. They are looking at me in this cage with greedy eyes like jackals.
The same round protruding mouth opens and closes in a sucking manner, and a circle of white, thin, sharp teeth appears and disappears with the wriggling mouth.
Oh my god, what the hell is this? Although I don’t have trypophobia, but now my head is full of these strange looking monsters with unknown purposes. It really makes my scalp numb, and it’s not a numb scalp that I feel in my heart, but
I really felt my scalp numb. This feeling made me even more nervous. I pulled out the frequency gun again, activated my boots, suspended in the cage, slowly turned my body, and kept guard with the gun.
I don't know if frequency-firing guns are lethal to these things.
I was stuck in a stalemate while thinking of countermeasures, but for some reason, the harder I tried to think of countermeasures, the number my scalp felt, and the number my scalp became, the more chaotic my brain felt, so I had to continue to increase the frequency field energy.
To keep the mind clear, but it seems to be in a vicious cycle. The more the energy is increased, the numbness of the scalp becomes more and more. The brain becomes chaotic again, and then the energy has to be increased again, and then the scalp becomes numb again, and so on.
The only thing that has changed is that those little things seem to be getting more and more excited. The penguin-like upper limbs are flapping happily, the small earthworm-like ears are also wriggling rapidly, and the round mouth full of small teeth is sucking more frequently.
As it continued to accelerate, the translucent body began to glow, flickering like a will-o'-the-wisp.
Oops, these things are absorbing my brainwave energy. If this stalemate continues, the frequency field energy will inevitably be exhausted. Wouldn’t that mean I’m dead? No, I have to fight back. At this moment, I no longer hesitate, and the frequency field energy in my hand
The gun fired immediately, hitting the nearest ones. The ones that were hit immediately exploded like balloons, and the absorbed brainwave energy fields were like those in the bellies of mosquitoes that were killed and sucked to their fullest.
Like blood, it spread in the air and reintegrated into my frequency field.
I felt happy, so I didn’t think too much about it. I just fired mechanically and hit a few more. These abominable things started to get scared and flapped their upper limbs and started to fly away from the cage, but they didn’t fly.
It was far away but still lingering around. At this time, the energy of the frequency gun was insufficient and the energy needed to be cached again. So, I immediately closed my eyes and rested, cleared my mind, and waited for the next firing moment of the frequency gun. At the same time, I also took advantage of the opportunity.
When these people were panicking, they quickly thought of countermeasures to get rid of this passive situation.
It was ready to fire. I opened my eyes suddenly, raised the gun and fired. At the same time, I activated the boots, curled up my body, and used the anti-gravity of the boots to hit the cage wall above with all my strength, and then returned to the cage at high speed.
It bounced to the cage wall below, then rushed to the cage wall above with all its strength, and fired a second shot.
Yes, this is what I came up with. I endured the huge pain in my body and bumped around in the cage like a pinball, hoping to break a gap in the vine or loosen it so that I could escape from this ghost.
place.
Finally, under the constant impact, the cage wall below finally began to loosen. I tried my best with my hands to open a hole. Although the hole was not big, fortunately, the body was relatively small, so it was still enough for me to pass through.
I immediately got down, and while falling, the frequency gun in my hand fired for the third time, hitting those damn things in the direction of my fall. After my feet landed, I immediately took out the frequency locking network.
The small balls were thrown towards the area where they were denser, and the open frequency-locking net pounced on them. These things began to run away, but some of the slower ones were still caught in the net.
With a bang, the fully loaded frequency-locked net fell to the ground. The ghost things in this net were squeaking and turning in the net. The other ones that had slipped through the net saw something bad and dispersed in a rush. The sky returned to calm, leaving only
The broken vine cage was shaking uncontrollably, and the fallen leaves on the ground were swept away by the wind that blew from time to time.
I sat down on the ground, breathing heavily, and shivering from the severe pain all over my body. At this moment, I finally realized the true meaning of the word "exhausted." I stretched out my feet and kicked the dirty things in the locked frequency network.
, there was a chirping sound inside, which was very unpleasant, but to me now, it was extremely pleasant music.
How to deal with these things? Let them go? No, for fear of future trouble. Kill them all? No way, first, the frequency gun can only fire three times in a row. If something happens during the energy buffer period of the frequency gun, it will not be able to cope with it.
Second, although I hate these things, after all, they no longer pose a threat to me. If I try to kill them again, it feels like killing innocent people indiscriminately, so I can't do it.
Forget it, let's drag them away, because I'm afraid that if I carry the frequency locking network on my back and be attacked by these guys, it's not cost-effective.
As a result, in the narrow corridor, a tired child dragged a net of small things and stumbled forward awkwardly under the dark sky. The vines on the walls on both sides watched all this indifferently.
, as if they were just innocent passers-by who had never helped some nasty little things to do evil. But the child still stubbornly walked through the maze, trying hard to solve the mystery, always firmly believing that the exit was just ahead.
