Chapter 22 The Labyrinth
Several huge oil drums suddenly rolled down from the spiral staircase. No matter how fast we ran in a place like this, we would still be hit by the oil drums. What's more, if we ran down in a place like this, we would be hit by the oil drums.
I guess there is no need for oil barrels to hit us. We are just afraid that we will stumble and fall down.
"Feng, hold me tight, don't let go."
"Eh?"
Before Feng could react, I hugged Feng. Then, I pushed my feet hard on the steps under my feet and jumped to the top. Feng was even more shocked by my move.
It was inevitable that she would be frightened by me, because without relying on magic, I jumped to a height of several meters with Feng in my arms. Moreover, this was not the end, I landed on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, he jumped again and jumped to a higher place.
"Okay, I can see the top."
In less than half a minute, I jumped to the top of this spiral staircase. At the top of this staircase was a black iron door.
"Maple, we're here."
I gently put Feng down, but at this time Feng looked completely stunned, and because my eyes could see clearly in the dark, I could see that Feng's face was very red.
.
"...Feng, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay, Senior Leon!"
Feng came back to her senses after I called her several times. She quickly told me that she was fine. Since she was fine, it was the best.
"Senior Leon, you are really amazing."
"Um?"
"Because, at such a high altitude, Senior Leon jumped to the top so easily. Am I... really qualified to be Senior Leon's disciple?"
"...Maple."
"Huh? Ah!"
I suddenly slashed at Feng with Jörmungandr, but Feng still relied on the knife in her hand to resist my attack.
"Feng, if it's a jackal, the attack just now probably already caused him to lose his ability to fight. Although you resisted very reluctantly, you still blocked it. You are different from a jackal, I say that.
Do you understand what I mean?"
"Yes, yes! Thank you, Senior Leon!"
Seeing that Feng's face has regained its luster, she should be fine. In this case, it's time for us to go back and join Resha and Nana.
"Feng, can you sense the magical reactions of Resha and Nana?"
"I didn't sense it. Where is Senior Leon?"
"Unfortunately, neither do I. It seems that even after climbing to such a high altitude, we are still far away from Nana and the others. Forget it, there is no other way anyway. Let's go in and take a look.
"
With that said, I used Jörmungandr to directly destroy the door. Should I say it was worthy of Jörmungandr? Although it was a rusty door, it was still so easy to destroy like cutting tofu.
Lost.
After the door was destroyed by me, I suddenly felt a chill from inside the door, and I don't know why, this chill made me feel very familiar, and even gave me a creepy feeling.
(Strange, why are they so similar? Could this feeling be...)
But then I shook my head, because no matter what, this was impossible. But if you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of the worst, so before the two of us were about to step into this room, I reminded Feng in advance.
"Feng, listen carefully, you must keep a firm heart after entering this room, otherwise you will be in danger."
"Yes, Senior Leon, thank you for the reminder."
After Feng promised me, the two of us entered the room together. The moment I entered the room, I was stunned by the scene in front of me, because the room was very bright and bright, and it was a huge
maze!
"Impossible, why is this maze here? Could it be..."
I held Jörmungandr tightly and tried to slash at the wall of the maze, but... there was not even a single crack in the wall of the maze.
If I'm not wrong... then...
"Feng, look carefully, is there anything behind you?"
Maple turned around as I said, but saw nothing.
"There's nothing? What's wrong, Senior Leon?"
After hearing this sentence, I knew very clearly that this maze was definitely the same one that had caused me so much trouble before. If an average person stayed in this maze for an hour, they would either go crazy or die!
"Senior Leon, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so scary!"
"……maple!"
My sudden shout shocked Feng, and she even fell to the ground in fright, but I also knew that I could only do this at this time to let her know the end of this maze.
How terrible it is.
"Feng, listen carefully, something terrible and unimaginable will happen in this maze next. To get out of this maze, you must abide by two points. First, after we go deep into this maze, no matter what you look at,
Everything is fake. You must maintain a firm will in your heart. The second point is that you must not look back before reaching the exit! Remember, no matter what happens, you must not look back!"
To escape from this maze alive, we must abide by these two points. I must tell Feng these two points in advance, otherwise...she will definitely die.
"Feng, do you understand? These two points?"
"Listen, I understand."
Although Feng said that she understood, the way she looked timid now, I knew it would be very difficult for her to survive in this place.
"What are you doing! You have no confidence. It is absolutely impossible to survive in this maze. Listen carefully. As long as you obey these two points and follow me, you will reach the exit soon. Do you understand?
?”
"I, I, I...I know."
Kaede's biggest weakness is her timidity. If she can't overcome the fear caused by "those" after she goes deep into this maze, she will definitely die before she can resist the exit of the maze. It seems... I have to take good care of her.
Only good maple can do it.
The premise is that if I can really overcome my inner fear...
