If you want to conquer the ninth floor of [Hall of Will], you must first find the location of the red box, and then push each block onto the red box.
Yang Yu asked the person in charge beside him, "How long does it take for the red box to appear and for the blocks to scatter randomly?", and then asked, "Have you ever tried to keep the block on the red box all the time, what will happen?", and "Can the two blocks continue to be pushed forward after colliding with each other?" and other detailed questions.
It does take a bit of willpower to conquer this underground maze.
Every step must be taken carefully, as one wrong step may lead to all of them being wrong.
If you get it wrong, you'll most likely have to start over.
Without enough willpower, you may give up completely after failing a few times.
Looking at the scattered squares on the chessboard, Yang Yu quickly worked out a preliminary strategy plan. He said to the person in charge beside him:
"Mr. Manager, could you please call the members guarding the underground labyrinth over? Just leave a few people to guard the entrance."
The person in charge glanced at He Meng, who had transformed into Chongdu, and sought instructions.
Crossing his arms, He Meng ordered, “Do as he says, and leave the strategy entirely to him.
Conquering these underground labyrinths is also for the prosperity of our clan."
"yes."
Hearing his boss's request, the person in charge did not dare to neglect it and turned around and went up the stairs.
After watching the person in charge go away, Yang Yu took out a piece of paper and a pen and handed them to Bai Jin, asking her to observe and record the distribution and movement trajectory of each square on the chessboard. At the same time, Yang Yu also used [Climb] to climb up the huge square.
The ninth level, the chessboard size is 20x30, with a total of 600 grids, each grid can hold a square. Roughly estimated, there are at least 200 squares on the chessboard.
Not all blocks move all the time. Some blocks are connected together to form some terrain, cutting the board into several different areas.
Yang Yu asked Lotkar to try to push one of the blocks that made up the terrain from all directions, but no matter how long Lotkar touched the block or how much force he used, the block that made up the terrain remained motionless.
More than half an hour later, the person in charge of the maze came back and brought people to the ninth floor.
These people are not part of the attack team that is responsible for conquering this underground maze, they are just guards.
Even after being transformed, the average attributes of these guards rarely exceed six hundred, and the average attributes of the person in charge barely reach one thousand four hundred, which does not make them qualified to conquer the deep underground maze.
The real attacking team is now distributed along various routes of the Thorny Lizard's expansion. They decided to wait until they have completely taken back their homeland before coming to challenge the ninth level.
When the attacking team was conquering the underground maze, these guards helped a lot and served them at their beck and call.
Therefore, they did not have much resistance to Yang Yu's upcoming command.
Bai Jin spent some time drawing the entire chessboard and handed it to Yang Yu.
Except for a few blocks that move extremely strangely, most of the blocks move in a straight line at a constant speed horizontally or vertically.
When the block is about to touch the bottom, place people on the adjacent grid to stop the block, and then push it along its original trajectory. In this way, except for the fact that it is impossible to confirm whether there are red boxes at both ends of the grid where the block is moving, it is possible to preliminarily confirm the situation on the block's moving path and see how many red boxes there are on its moving path.
After confirming the red square on one route, quickly replace the square on another route and continue measuring the remaining red squares.
Once all the red boxes have been measured, you can work out a box-pushing route based on the distribution of the red boxes and the positions of the blocks.
Because he didn't know whether the red box would be in those corners that could not be taken into account, Yang Yu had to leave some squares to fill the corners.
Before it even started, Yang Yu's head was buzzing. These boxes were not so easy to push.
Yang Yu learned from the person in charge that the thorn scale lizard attack team had never tried to put the box on the grid.
Perhaps, they also thought that if they could just fill in the red boxes, they would be able to pass the ninth level, but they may have realized that the boxes can only be pushed and not pulled back. If they pushed the wrong place, they would have to start all over again, which would be a huge workload, so they gave up.
It is a pleasure to solve a 3x3 puzzle with nine pieces, but it is a torture to solve a 100x100 puzzle with ten thousand pieces, not to mention that there may be a time limit.
After going through the previous simple levels, the difficulty suddenly increases dramatically, and anyone would be afraid.
Maybe you think what you thought is wrong, so you don’t bring it up.
Regardless of whether this strategy would succeed or not, Yang Yu decided to give it a try. He took a piece of cloth, numbered each guard, explained his strategy, and asked them to arrive at different locations and make preparations.
Yang Yu and his friends sat on the block closest to them.
This is not laziness.
Anyone can push blocks, but not everyone can handle the monsters that randomly spawn on different blocks.
When the monsters appear, Yang Yu and his team must deal with them instantly to ensure the safety of others until the strategy is completed.
After making sure everyone was ready, Yang Yu gave an order and the attack began.
The person in charge of the maze was the first to come on stage. According to Yang Yu's plan, he stopped the block in the center of the second square where the block was moving, then went around to the back of the block and pushed it through the half-square gap to the second square, the third square, and finally to the second to last square.
It turns out that, apart from stopping to waste some energy, the ease of pushing the block is entirely determined by the length of time the push takes, and has nothing to do with the amount of force used. Later on, the person in charge could even push the block with just one finger.
After the first block had completed its journey and confirmed that no monsters or red boxes had appeared, Yang Yu asked the person in charge to move to the next block he was responsible for, and asked the second person to push the block. The second person was fine, so he asked the third person to do it.
This process repeated itself until the sixth block, when three ferocious monsters finally emerged from several blocks.
The levels of these monsters are all unified at level 100, with extremely high strength and speed. As soon as they appeared from the blocks, they attacked the sixth person who was pushing the block below with their fangs and claws.
Unfortunately, apart from speed and strength, these monsters' other attributes are extremely poor. Their maximum health is only three or four hundred. Ordinary adventurers only need two or three swords to kill them.
Ias pulled the bowstring, and a shining arrow of light pierced through the sky, splitting into three in the air, and almost simultaneously destroyed the three monsters, turning them into gold coins that fell to the ground.
This sudden support and spoils made the fishmen and thorny lizards who were helping Yang Yu and his team control the blocks feel a lot more at ease.
Simply asking someone to pick up the dropped spoils, Yang Yu asked the person pushing the block to continue the journey and see if there were any mechanism grids in front of the block he was pushing.
After confirming that there were no other mechanism grids, Yang Yu quickly asked the fishman to press the block on the red box, and this time no monsters jumped out.
