Chapter 507 The map opens


    After redeeming the portable map from the Endless Store, Mr. Yuan also sent a message to others explaining that there were exit clues in the store. After more than ten hours, no one sent a message.


    Now the information suddenly comes, it should be that important information has been discovered.


    "It''s from Mao Xintong." The source of the information can be judged through the talisman. After Mr. Yuan activated it, the talisman lit up with a light and projected an image.


    The image faced a dead end. In the depths of the alley, which was only a few meters wide, a group of strange-looking monsters were passing by in formation, but they were not moving along the alley. Their team direction was perpendicular to the alley. They walked out from the wall on the right and slipped into the opposite wall as if nothing had happened.


    Through the wall? Aren’t the walls of the maze impenetrable? Looking at it like this, these monsters seem to be disembodied phantoms.


    The impact was not over yet. Two or three seconds later, the camera began to move to the left at high speed, and soon came to a corner dozens of meters away. Looking from the corner, one could see the group of ghosts continuing to move forward, drilling through the wall and coming out without a trace. He got into the opposite wall without any hindrance.


    Finally, the camera changes direction. You can''t see the end of this wall from the front or back. It should be impossible to get around it, and you can''t see where the team is leading.


    The scene ends here.


    "What kind of monsters are these?" Ma Qiao asked confused: "How did they pass through the wall? Where does the team lead? What is it going for? Why didn''t Mao Xintong say a word or even an explanation?"


    "She shouldn''t be able to say it." Mr. Yuan frowned and said: "Look at her camera, she is obviously a little sneaky, and there are almost no footsteps when she moves... Those monsters should be very sensitive to sound. If she makes a sound, it will cause trouble. trouble."


    "Then what can you tell by just posting a picture?" Sun Xiaowei pouted.


    "These monsters themselves are the problem." Luo Jun touched his chin, "The rules emphasize the impenetrable wall, and being passed through by such a living group should be some kind of reminder..."


    "You mean, the direction these teams are heading may be the exit?" Sun Xiaowei said in surprise.


    "It doesn''t have to be the exit, but it must be a special place." Luo Jun shook his head: "And it may not be the direction forward, it may also be the direction they came from..."


    Sun Xiaowei shook her head: "But the problem is that everything in the maze looks the same. Just looking at this image, you can''t tell the specific location at all, let alone the direction they are heading."


    "Direction..." Luo Jun frowned, remembering that he had seen an absolute compass in the brochure of Endless Store. Such a small prop costs more than 2,000 yuan. Luo Jun didn''t see what use it would have, so he didn''t consider exchanging it. Looking at it now, the ability to point directions in the maze is also very important. No wonder it is so expensive.


    "Anyway, this can be regarded as a clue." Mr. Yuan clapped his hands: "If you encounter a similar situation, you can consider investigating it. Let''s continue exploring now."


    Several people nodded and were about to leave when Luo Jun''s ears suddenly moved: "Wait, there is something in front of you."


    "Huh?" After hearing this, everyone became alert and picked up their weapons. After a while, they finally heard a rustling sound coming from the front. They looked up and saw a long, thin figure coming out of the depths of the maze. humanoid figure.


    The maze was raised to a height of five or six meters, and the figure''s head was pressed against the ceiling, even tilting his head.


    Although it has a human-like body structure, it is all gray and white, with no hair or wrinkles visible. It is smooth and looks like a game model with the texture map removed. This thing may be a bit funny in the game, but in reality, it is still a bit scary in such a dark maze.


    "What monster?" Ma Qiao snorted, picked up a shotgun, and fired at the ghost. With two bangs, the projectiles made more than ten dents on the ghost''s smooth skin, but soon, the dents smoothed out and the projectiles were pushed out.


    "The gunshot is ineffective?" Ma Qiao was stunned. Sun Xiaowei clasped her hands together and transformed into a robot as tall as a person. Her hands transformed into the structure of a chainsaw and rushed towards the monster.


    The monster didn''t seem to see the robot and walked forward on its own. The chainsaws on the robot''s hands turned at high speed and cut into the monster''s thigh!


    Hiss, hiss!


    There was a huge cutting sound, and the monster''s legs were twisted and deformed under the cutting of the sharp saw blade, and were stretched and twisted into the rotating shaft until the machine got stuck and finally stopped.


    Looking at the monster again, it seemed that it was not aware of the attack and continued to move forward slowly. The cutting robot was entangled in the flesh of his legs and could not get away. It was hung on the legs of the monster and dragged along.


    "So difficult to deal with?" Everyone was stunned.


    "This soft structure that stretches at will is extremely resistant to physical attacks." Mr. Yuan frowned: "You guys stand back!"


    The three of them immediately retreated behind Mr. Yuan. They saw him bringing the Bagua Zhihu with him. When his fists touched, a thick pillar of fire spurted out, filling the entire corridor in front of him and engulfing the monster in an instant!


    The raging flames lasted for more than ten seconds, roasting the cheeks of several people behind them, and the temperature in the corridor rose sharply, far exceeding that of a sauna.


    Feeling that it was almost done, Mr. Yuan finally removed the fire pillar. In the middle of the hot corridor, the tall and thin human figure was scorched black and smoking, and the robot wrapped around his thigh had disappeared.


    But the monster seemed to want to continue moving forward. He took another step forward with stiff steps, but as soon as he moved, his ankle could not bear the weight and broke. His tall body suddenly fell down with a crash and fell to pieces. .


    "I thought it was such a powerful monster..." Ma Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as you find the weakness, it''s not that difficult to deal with."


    "It''s not that simple!" Luo Jun frowned and said: "Lao Yuan''s attack intensity just now is quite high. As an elemental sect, I can feel it. Its intensity far exceeds all the elemental sect masters I have seen!"


    Luo Jun''s words were half true and half false. Although he was not an elemental sect, he had experienced the power of Bagua Zhihu. Even if Mr. Yuan did not use all his strength in the maze, this monster could survive for so long and still retain its human form. It’s enough to show its strength!


    "Hey, look, what is that?" Sun Xiaowei suddenly pointed at the monster''s smashed corpse, in which there was a faint golden light.


    "It seems to be a treasure..." Ma Qiao was about to step forward, but was stopped by Mr. Yuan: "Endless maze, be careful, Xiaowei, use your ability to go up and have a look."


    Sun Xiaowei nodded, controlled her mechanical spider Xiao Hei to step forward, peeled off the monster''s charred corpse, and picked out a... gold ingot?


    "What is this?" After confirming that there was no danger, several people took the gold ingot and started studying it.


    "Remember what the businessman said, you can get currency by killing monsters." Luo Jun analyzed: "Could this be it?"


    "Isn''t it money?" Sun Xiaowei asked curiously.


    "Maybe I can exchange this for it, put it away first." As he said that, Luo Jun put the gold ingot into the equipment bag, and they continued to move forward along the maze.


    I have to say that the experience of this maze is different from any mission Luo Jun has experienced before. Other tasks are like a sharp sword pointing at you behind you, forcing you to keep moving forward and race against time to complete the task.


    But this time the rhythm of the maze was too strange. When I first saw the introduction, I thought it would be a process of being constantly harassed by various mechanisms and monsters. As a result, most of the time in the maze, in addition to various forks and up and down stairs, , basically you won’t encounter anything...


    But the key point is that everyone knows that this is a chaos mission, and it is said to be an extremely difficult mission that no one has ever cleared. If the monsters really rush up one after another, it will be dangerous, but at least they will feel at ease. If you keep going forward, you won''t even see a ghost, which makes you uneasy and makes you think more easily. Especially the relatively weak Ma Qiao and Xiao Wei were on tenterhooks all the way. As for Luo Jun, he is now very confident in his own strength, but the problem is that he followed because there is a high probability that Boss Yuan will die in this mission. Although he was not too worried about his own safety, he always paid attention to Mr. Yuan, for fear of overlooking any dangerous factors, but he was the most worried among them.


    In this kind of fear, the few people walked for more than ten hours. More than thirty hours, almost a day and a half, had passed since they entered this maze.


    But Luo Jun''s secret dice has never been refreshed, which means that the time in the outside world has not even passed three hours...


    But only he knows this and cannot tell others.


    In a relatively spacious room, several people ate some more. Almost one-third of ten days'' worth of supplies was consumed. Firstly, everyone is worried about not encountering new supply points, so they have been saving money. Secondly, there is no fighting along the way, they are just rushing. For cultivators, the physical consumption is quite low, and they do not need to eat much.


    "When will this end..." Ma Qiao complained: "I would say, open the map and see what is nearby. It will also help us get more information."


    "You can open the map..." After such a long time, Luo Jun became a little irritable. "But based on previous experience, there may not be any encounter points within this kilometer... After we finish driving, we need to move as fast as possible to make the map sweep as much area as possible."


    "That''s no problem!" Ma Qiao, as a martial arts sect, is very confident in speed: "You are an elemental sect, can you keep up with us?"


    "This is easy to handle." Luo Jun said with a smile: "I will take the lead with the map, can you just follow me?"


    "No problem." Both Ma Qiao and Sun Xiaowei subconsciously regarded Luo Jun as the one with the lowest cultivation level, and did not take him seriously at all. They agreed happily. Only Mr. Yuan smiled and said nothing.


    After simply moving his muscles, Luo Jun took out his portable map: "Are you ready?"


    "Okay!" Ma Qiao replied confidently.


    "Okay!" Luo Jun nodded and activated the map. In front of it, a spherical three-dimensional projection suddenly appeared, depicting an intricate maze structure. A light spot in the center represented the location of the map.


    A few people took a quick glance and found that there was no special place within the radius of this kilometer.


    Sure enough, the maze was much larger and more spacious than Luo Jun imagined.


    "Charge!" Luo Jun gave the order and ran out first.


    "Hey, it''s pretty fast!" Seeing Luo Jun sprinting like a cheetah, Ma Qiao admired and followed closely. Mr. Yuan followed closely behind him. Although he was older, his physical ability was top-notch in the entire cultivation world due to his solid foundation and cultivation. It was no problem to keep up with Luo Jun, who was in trouble.


    On the other hand, Sun Xiaowei, this girl is not good at physical strength, and she feels a little unable to keep up when she runs. But she also had a way. She directly used her ability to form a bicycle and rode it to keep up with a few people.


    The structure of a bicycle is relatively simple. For Sun Xiaowei, who is good at simulating mechanical bodies, it is not very difficult to make. Even though her physical ability is poor, she is still a cultivator after all. The road in this maze is flat, without even a slope. The car pedals very fast, but she can barely keep up with the others.


    Everyone was running and suddenly found a special mark on the three-dimensional map in front of Luo Jun!


    "There''s something!" Ma Qiao reminded: "Stop and take a look!"


    "That''s a monster, there''s nothing to stop..." Luo Jun said without looking back.


    "You can kill monsters in exchange for money!"


    "Okay, but it''s not worth wasting time!" Luo Jun said, "I''ll write it down and come back to it after it''s over!"


    "Remember...remember?" Ma Qiao looked unbelieving: "With such a complicated maze, I thought you were a computer..."


    Unexpectedly, Luo Jun raised his hand and revealed a small camera.


    "Although it is just an ordinary-level Noble Phantasm, it has unlimited power, can take photos and videos, and the picture is clear and reliable. The only drawback is that when traveling through the world, the information recorded in the previous world will be deleted."


    "Is there such an operation?" The three of them were stunned, but now that they have the record, there is no reason to waste precious time for a monster. They can only follow Luo Jun and continue running wildly.


    The spherical map continued to refresh, and soon, one encounter point after another appeared on the screen, including monsters, mechanisms, relics, and shops.


    There are more encounter points than Luo Jun imagined, but if you are running around in the maze without instructions, you will probably pass by them just above your head or under your feet, and you will not be able to find them at all.


    The five thousand yuan was well spent!


    As time passed, the camera recorded one location after another. Luo Jun was happy, but Ma Qiao behind him was a little overwhelmed.


    Although the speed led by Luo Jun is not Ma Qiao''s limit, it cannot be maintained for a long time. If he ran continuously for ten or twenty minutes, he could maintain his speed, but any longer and he would become a little tired.


    But as a martial artist, he was too embarrassed to mention slowing down. At first, he thought that when Luo Jun slowed down on his own, or even took out a means of transportation, he would have a reason to mention slowing down. But I didn''t expect that Luo Jun, a kid from the elemental sect, could actually maintain such a high speed and run all the way for more than half an hour without taking a breath?


    What kind of physical strength is this?


    At this time, there was a sudden sound of gasping in his ears. Ma Qiao turned around and saw that Sun Xiaowei was pedaling the bicycle with difficulty and was already covered with sweat...


    Ma Qiao''s eyes lit up and she immediately shouted: "Let''s slow down a little, the little girl can''t hold it anymore..."


    After Luo Jun heard this, he looked back and found that Sun Xiaowei was indeed tired. This girl''s foundation was not very solid and she was not a martial arts sect. It was indeed difficult for him to keep up with this speed.


    "Then let''s..." Luo Jun was about to suggest slowing down, but Sun Xiaowei suddenly glared: "No, you can''t drag everyone down because of me!"


    As she spoke, her energy began to circulate, and the bicycle under her crotch began to deform. In just a few seconds, it turned into an electric bicycle. Now she no longer had to pedal, and she could easily keep up with it by twisting her little hands.


    "Well done, senior!" Luo Jun praised, and threw the Qi Storage Spirit Stone over to help Sun Xiaowei replenish the energy she had consumed. Xiaowei took a sip, her face became rosier, and she accelerated to keep up with Luo Jun. Only Ma Qiao is left to fight the wolf at the end of the team...


    "Sister... how about you transform into one for me too?"


    "You don''t need an electric one, a bicycle will do..."
