There was a brief commotion on departure, but it was smooth to leave Aria in Roberia. Thanks to Lute's kind guidance, he was able to get out of the maze without difficulty.
Yoohyun paused as he entered the maze smoothly. This was now a seven-storey maze. It was a much deeper hierarchy than the labyrinth that the group had gone through before.
Simply put, it's dangerous. Yoohyun, who was standing in front, slowly turns around and looks at the group. He breaks through Aria without rest for five days, but his complexion is calm.
Maybe it's because there's no big battle. I don't know if I was just lucky or if Lute's directions were good, but I didn't say it was a battle crossing Aria.
Yoohyun slowly looked at the group's complexion and said.
“The maze on the 7th floor is a lot different from the maze you know. ”
“If it is very different · · ·. What exactly is it? ”
“Hmm. I should say that there are many medium-sized monsters who are not small monsters. You may have seen a lot of small monsters in crowds before, but from the 5th floor and above, you can also see a lot of monsters that are mostly alone. ”
“They must be strong enough to walk alone. Being alone means you have to be strong enough to fight monsters in swarms. ”
“That's the answer.”
Yoohyun strokes his head as if praising Song Song Song Song for what he said he was trying to warn.
Because of how many times she had done this before, she accepted the touch as if she was familiar with it. It's like seeing a well-tamed cat. However, I felt a strange look and Yoohyun shifted his gaze.
“ · · · · · · ”
Lee Seo-yeon, who was next to him, stared at the song and said he was jealous. I wonder if she should stroke her head, but Yoohyun decided to continue explaining.
“Where we're going now is a five-story maze. This may be the first time you've moved the hierarchy of the maze, but there's nothing to worry about. The higher the floor, the lower the level of monsters. So does anyone know the changes that occur as we get closer to the corridors between classes? ”
I haven't moved between tiers yet. Lute and Percy may know, but they notice that they don't talk on purpose. Lute was smiling and Percy was waiting to yawn bored. Yoohyun looked around expecting someone to answer.
Strange silence hovers. I was wondering if there was anyone I knew.
Break it up.
Mmm?
Song Ga-yeon was whispering something in Lee Seo-yeon's ear. Lee Seo-yeon listened to Song Ga-yeon and opened his eyes with a bright face. Then he quickly raised his hand and said,
“As you get closer to the entrance, the labyrinth reveals environments you can't see. · · · such as forests or deserts. There are environments that can be seen in Arier. Well, I mean... Ugh · · ·. ”
I wanted to say something more, but I can't seem to remember what I was saying. Then I saw Song Gyeong next to me sighing and putting his hand on his forehead.
She must have told you the answer on purpose. I blushed whether I was a little ashamed this year.
After all, Yoohyun said with a bitter smile.
“Hmm. That's right. ”
“Yes · · ·. Then, · · ·. ”
Yoohyun kept smiling and stroked her head as Lee shily opened his eyes and looked forward to something.
“Umm · · ·. ”
Whether it was happy or not, she closed her eyes with a clear smile.
It was then.
“· · · Yoohyun more than that. How long are you gonna stay here? ”
Percy, who was yawning with his back against the wall, blindfolded and asked. Somehow I don't feel good. Yoohyun shook her head in her eyes, urging her to move quickly.
“I still have more to explain. ”
“· · · What. You're not done yet? So can I answer that, too? I'm bored.”
“I don't really care. What are you gonna do with your answer? ”
This was simply a procedure for checking and explaining how well the group knew. But if Percy gets in here, it's meaningless. Isn't that the Great Wizard?
Her knowledge surpasses that of Yoohyun. In that sense, if she asks a question, Yoohyun might be more right to answer it.
As Yoohyun laughed as if he could not understand, Percy muttered whether he was hurt or not.
“Am I not supposed to? ”
“I don't really care. ”
“Then I can get in, too, right? Huhu.”
Percy stood behind Lee Seo-yeon as he said so. Then Lee stared carefully at Percy, trembling to see if he felt anything. Somehow I look like a scared rabbit.
· · · What are they doing?
Yoohyun sighed and finished talking.
Of course, if you ask me something after that, Percy answers first. She also asked me to stroke her head, so Yoohyun couldn't help but lift it. If you don't do it for her, it might make you feel discriminated against.
But that's only a few times, too.
Percy is now staring at Lee Seo-yeon with a shabby laugh to see if that's enough.
“Then let's stop here. I think I'm going to ring a cute girl. ”
I was excluded on my own. I don't know what it was meant to be, but maybe it was just because I was bored. However, Lee Seo-yeon's soul was already out at that time.
*
To be honest, for a group that was all about exploring the 3rd floor, exploring the 7th floor was a sudden change. Yoohyun knows that, so he moves the aisle more carefully than usual.
There is a compass in the maze that tells us where Asvarda is, but it was difficult to expect strength because of different strata. So, once you go up to the fifth floor, you can borrow power from the compass.
It was a time when I was walking without rest for about two hours.
“But how do you find the corridor? ”
Langshashen, who was being followed by a light-looking step, has asked such a question.
“In a typical case, all you have to do is follow the aisle. ”
“Then it might take a long time to find the entrance if you're not lucky. ”
“In a way, it is. But that's a common case, and we're different now. Now we have a great way to go. At least it won't take long. ”
As Yoohyun glanced, Lute, who was walking in front of him, reacted. Whether he was referring to it or not, he was smiling.
“Inside the maze is a way to find the entrance to the hierarchy. It's moving after the different magical energies that flow from the entrance of the hierarchy. ”
“Ah · · ·. I see."
Langshashen nods with a face to see if he understands it or not.
Lute had a good ability to navigate. You used to do this mostly in the time of the Roberia Expedition. Perhaps there is nothing as overwhelmingly wandering as Langshashen is concerned.
“Besides, I remember going around a few times before, so it wouldn't be that hard. The path itself can change due to fluctuations, but the position of the entrance does not change. ”
“Hmm. Lute was useful in places like that. He's a freak, too. Do you have anything else to hide? Sometimes I wonder what you can't do. ”
“Haha. Thank you for the compliment. Mr. Gil Yumi."
Yoohyun thinks it was the look in the eyes of a monster rather than the compliment. It was understood that Gil Yumi had such eyes. Lute was versatile.
I wonder if I've moved an hour or so since. I thought it would be good to take a break. Yoohyun heard a huge footstep somewhere and stopped the group immediately.
Kuwung · · ·.
Everyone changes their mood to see if they hear it now.
“· · · Type. What's that sound now? ”
One day, the southern archipelago asks, holding the Halberd in his hand.
However, there is no way to answer that question as Yoohyun. I'm trying to detect him by spreading magical power widely, but Song Gyun answered the question before Yoohyun.
“Monster. He looks about 5 meters tall. The direction is the same as ours right now. ”
I wonder if he summoned a new Spirit to confirm his location. Her reconnaissance skills are remarkable. Maybe it's more efficient to leave it to Song Gyun than Yoohyun in the future.
Song Ga-yeon closed his eyes and focused, and he looked at Yoohyun as he talked to her.
"I think we'll meet if we go this way. What do we do?"
I asked Yoohyun to make a decision in her eyes. The guide was Lute now.
“There's no other way, is there? ”
“Umm · · ·. If you look, you'll still be able to get back to where we came from. If you think about the way you came, you should go around for about two hours. ”
Too long.
“Then maybe fighting just saves more time. ”
The schedule is not so relaxed. Yoohyun told Song Ga-yeon.
“Can you guide me to his location? ”
“Yes. No problem. ”
Trustworthy. With a calm face, she nods and starts to stand in the way. Yoohyun tells the group to get ready for battle and then follows Song Ga-yeon.
Soon after the direction of movement was overlapping as she said, he was found.
The one found had a dog's throat, but the trunk resembled a bear. But he didn't walk on four feet because he had a dog's head.
Standing on his feet like a bear, he was eating something with claws that looked sharper than a blade. I think I was just hunting. I can see the corpses of monsters on the floor.
When he saw it, Lute said that the garage had a small tongue.
“A friend who looks dangerous somewhere. ”
