Syndicate lair.
Link and his party walked along the passage, and after walking hundreds of meters, a hall appeared in front of them. Looking carefully, this turned out to be the place where they found the cursed magic circle before.
"We're walking back again, we'll be trapped to death here." The voice of the militia captain Yaksa was very high, his face was full of despair and panic.
After walking back to the hall for the third time, he was on the verge of collapse with the worst emotional control ability. The others are also frowning, and despair is growing in their hearts.
"Okay, don't panic, let's rest first." Link's voice was as calm as ever.
There was a simple table and chair next to the hall. Link walked over and sat down, and then a beam of light radiated from his wand, which shot towards the table in front of him. After the light dissipated, a Bread and water.
Of course this was taken out of the space pendant, but Link covered it up with magic: "I can use magic to make food and water, even if we are trapped here all the time, we won't starve to death! We have plenty of time to figure out a way."
There is a lot of food in the pendant, and it is estimated that it can feed 6 people for about half a month. After half a month, Link couldn't believe that he couldn't find a way out.
It doesn't matter even if the food is gone, because he will also use elemental healing. Although this move is a healing technique, its function is to replenish the body's consumption and maintain the balance of body elements. It is actually possible to use it as food.
In fact, magicians have specialized techniques for creating food and water, which Link didn't learn. And the magician, if necessary, doesn't even need to eat, just keep giving himself elemental treatment.
In a word, as long as Link has magic power, the six of them will not starve to death even if they are trapped in the cave.
With the cards in hand, Link was very calm.
The real bread and water, together with Link's words, immediately soothed everyone's emotions. Being trapped, the most feared thing is that there is no food and water. Now these are not problems, and everyone is relieved .
As for Link's claim that magic can be used to make bread and water, everyone has no doubts. According to rumors, magic is omnipotent, so what is it to make a little food
Yake sat down, picked up a piece of bread and ate it, took a few bites, and said in surprise: "Hey, it tastes exactly the same as the bread made by John, delicious!"
Link smiled secretly, isn't that what John did.
After walking all the way, they were all hungry, so they all sat around and ate bread.
After eating and drinking enough, everyone's emotions were relieved. Although the militia captain Yaksa still looked unwell, he seemed to be fine.
During this time, Link carefully observed the surrounding situation.
This is the rotunda. That's right. The destroyed magic circle on the ground still leaves clear traces, and the exit is there. However, when they walk out along the exit, they feel that they are going all the way. Take the same exit back to this hall.
As for the exit of the cave, it has completely disappeared.
This situation is completely incomprehensible, and it is no wonder that the militia captain panicked. In fact, Yake, Anderson, Lucy, and Green Dan were not much better. They all looked at Link, waiting for him to make up his mind.
Link didn't observe anything for the time being. After resting for a while, he stood up and said, "Let's walk again, and this time walk slower."
Everyone had no other choice but to continue walking.
Along the way, Link carefully felt the changes in the passage. When the group reached the place where the exit of the cave should have been, Link stopped and carefully observed the passage ahead.
Everything in the passage seems to be normal, but for some reason, after observing it many times, Link feels an indescribable strangeness... No, it should be a sense of familiarity.
Link just stopped in the passageway, squinting his eyes. In his mind, the memory of them walking through the passageway before was played like a holographic movie, every detail was restored, and then bit by bit with the passageway in front of him. compare.
Finally, Link discovered the problem.
The passage in front of him should be a mirror image of the passage he is in!
To put it another way, someone, or some kind of power, put down a strange 'mirror' at the place where the exit of the cave should have been. The difference between this mirror and the real mirror is that the world in the mirror can be walked. in!
Before, Link and the others walked into the mirror over and over again, then returned to the hall, went to the exit, walked into the mirror and returned to the hall, and so on.
This 'mirror' magic is cast so perfectly that even the 'seams' have been carefully modified, and the excessive texture of the rock wall does not show the slightest disharmony, everything is natural.
But all of this did not escape Link's astonishing insight.
He remembered a magic: space mirroring.
space mirror
11th-level epic illusion magic
Function: Create a scene of a space scene, connect it with the real space, and form a closed space ring.
(Note: The necessary magic to create the ultimate maze!)
In the game of the previous life, Link was promoted to a legend. After learning this magic, he played superbly. When fighting against players in the game arena, he likes to use this magic to tease his opponents. In many live broadcasts of online battles, Link used this magic to manipulate his opponents in the palm of his hand, and the various routines of controlling people's hearts were so dirty that he was titled the Great Demon King of the Labyrinth.
But that is a game after all, as long as you observe carefully, you can find traces of forgery, but here, this space mirror is almost flawless, enough to make people despair to death in an endless loop.
This is legendary magic, and with Link's current strength, there is no way to break through it. After thinking about it for a while, Link knows that he has two choices now. The first is to dig an extra channel from the seam of the mirror. For the six of them, That said, it's not difficult.
But this is also risky, because it is very likely that after they dug the passage, the entrance of the passage will be covered by mirrors again, not to mention the waste of effort, and the morale of the team will drop to freezing point.
The second way is to walk all the way to the deepest part of the passage and see what new discoveries can be made.
This method is dangerous to some extent, but since it is to eliminate the syndicate thieves, there is no reason why it is not dangerous. Link thought for a while and chose the second way.
"My lord, have you found anything?" Jake asked.
Link nodded and said, "We are trapped by a very powerful magic and cannot escape, but we are not without chance. Now, let's go back and go to the deepest part of this cave, maybe there will be a turning point."
Being able to release legendary magic means that there is a legendary expert, and the only legendary expert who may appear in this cave at this time can only be Morpheus, the mastermind behind the Syndicate.
But Link can be sure that Morpheus himself is definitely not here, otherwise he would not need to use space mirroring magic, and he can pinch them to death with just one finger.
Link infers that Morpheus is not really in the cave, but there should be his altar here, so part of his power can extend here, and then build this space mirror.
Another inference is that the power he can extend is definitely not much, because space mirroring is not an energy-consuming magic, what it needs most is the understanding of space, if the opponent extends enough power, the opponent can also easily To catch them, why play such a small trick
With such a reasoning, Link was convinced that it was just a tentacle of power from the legendary powerhouse, and it was not like he had no chance.
At this time, the exit was blocked, and everyone had no other choice. It was impossible to wait for death without doing anything. Except for the timid Yaksa who was still hesitating, everyone agreed to go deep into the cave.
Yakesa didn't dare to stay alone, so he could only walk with everyone.
A group of people walked back and soon arrived at the previous hall. Another passage in the hall leads directly to the depths of the cave, and it is also the direction where the undead went.
As before, Yake raised his shield and moved forward, Link activated the light technique, and everyone protected him in the middle, walking all the way to the depths of the mine.
This time, they didn't encounter any strange situation.
Along the way, there are many stone chambers of different sizes along the passage.
Among these stone chambers, there are residences for common syndicate thieves, weapon rooms, storage rooms, and several luxuriously decorated stone chambers, which should be the residences of syndicate leaders.
At this time, syndicate thieves began to appear, but these were ordinary members, the highest level of ordinary thieves was no more than level 2. Although there were more people than Link and others, their combat effectiveness was far inferior, and they were not opponents of 6 people at all.
Along the way, Link and his party pushed forward all the way, killing more than 30 syndicate thieves. The only scary thing is that after these 30 thieves died in battle, no matter how serious their injuries were, they all stood up strangely and walked towards the deepest part of the cave.
It's useless even if they cut off their heads, it's extremely weird.
Link felt very bad. After killing another thief, he said, "Cut off their hands and feet, and don't let them be resurrected."
He thinks there is a conspiracy in it!
Everyone was also flustered by this little strong undead. After Link said this, after meeting the syndicate thieves, they started a lot more cruelly. After killing their opponents, they chopped off their hands, feet, and heads. corpse.
"Damn it, they're still alive and still moving!" Yaksa had an exaggerated frightened expression on his face.
Indeed, seeing a body with no hands, no feet, no head, almost a mass of flesh, slowly wriggling like a snail, arching into the depths of the cave bit by bit, their severed hands and feet also It is still moving, and it is also moving into the depths of the cave. This situation is too terrifying.
"Burn them!" Link saw this scene for the first time, and the game didn't have the bloody scenes that only appear in restricted-rated blockbusters.
So they burned it with fire.
When these corpses, no, to be precise, when the corpses were engulfed by the raging fire, they were still trying to struggle. It was finally burned into coke, and it finally stood still.
"..."
Everyone was speechless.
A question popped into everyone's mind, what the hell is hidden in the deepest part of the cave
