412 Stories The Secret of Hippo's Maze
"Goddamn it! It's over here, too!
It would be nice to have tried the maze of hippos with exasperation, but it was more difficult than I imagined.
It was accompanied by an extra change in the structure of the labyrinth over time, even though it was incredibly intricate. From what I've heard, they change randomly from 5 patterns, but this was more troublesome than I thought.
Until then, the directions I remember will be wasted, and the previous and current maps will be messed up, and I don't know why.
"Yabe, I'm totally lost..."
"Mog......"
I don't know how many times it's been. It's a dead end.
"Yar?"
"... I have no choice. Fou, I asked you."
"Yar!"
"Huma!"
"Oh, and Eine, go too."
"Hoomer!"
As I nodded, Fou and Eine popped out of momentum, the two looking around from about 10 meters high.
Cheating? I think so, too. That's why I've kept two flying fighters warm up to this point, but I've been lost for over 15 minutes now and...
That's how you get people to look for a way out of the sky and move on for 5 minutes.
"Oh, is that the goal? Finally, we can attack."
The top time seems to be about 2 minutes, so it took 10 times longer to calculate. At this point, I guess the guys giving out the fastest time are running through the full speed after they've perfectly aligned the maps and stuff.
Regardless of the map, it was unlikely to beat me by inferior travel speeds.
Well, let's just say the fun wins.
"Goal!"
"Paine!"
"Kumar!"
We all dive the goal together. It was fun to go through the maze while discussing that it wasn't everyone's, uh, or this, and do you want to get the juice from the participation award and go home?
If that's what you think, Rick reacted to something.
"Kiku!"
"What's up? That's the way out.
"Queue!"
What we have now is a circular square in the middle of a maze of sunflowers. There are large trees growing in the center, quite wide.
If you go through a bridge from here to cross over the maze, you can return to the village immediately.
But Rick ran in the opposite direction to the bridge. I thought I'd discovered something, and I looked at you, and I saw something in the shadow of the tree.
"Is this... an outdoor store?
"Oh, this is... Welcome. Welcome to the fossilist."
Goza was laid to hide in the shadow of a large tree, where one old man sat. He is an old grey-haired man who looks good in monocle, wearing a magician-style robe. Would it be "Professor," or "Old Master," if it were to be nicknamed?
Lined up in front of that old man with a smile was a breeding case of various sizes. Inside there are rare insects such as morpho butterflies and herculean wolves.
"What is this place... selling insects?
"Yeah. That's right. The customer seems to have a fossil. Take a look and go."
"Ha, ha"
He was an insect shop by the name of a fossilist. Confusing.
Even so, was there any information on this store?
It should not have been in the information I bought from Alyssa or the information I exchanged with Chris. It's hard to think that both of them will forget to tell.
I mean, does that mean something special?
Let's just ask a bunch of questions.
"Do you sell anything but insects?
"We also sell other cases. How about one for you?
"Heh, maybe some big size cases?
"Of course you are."
Some of the lists the old man showed me were oversized breeding cases. With as much as 5 meters in diameter, we're likely to be able to keep Sheilakans.
Maybe it's the regular route to come here before you go to an ancient island and buy an oversized breeding case.
"Besides, there's a metastatic formation. Yan"
When I look behind the old man, there stands a white stone column. There shouldn't have been any particular information on this either, so I guess that means it was newly emerged by some sort of trigger.
This maze of sunflowers is a mini-game by party. It was thought that if some conditions were met at the challenging party, an old man and a transfer team would appear at the goal point.
"Um, do you have any credentials to use this store?
"Yes! We are only available to those with amber or fossils!
I thought it might not be because I said fossils at first, but did I? Whether or not you possess fossils will change if you see this store.
They didn't tell me where I could pick it, but apparently it's not an ancient island, it can even be picked by those on the main island.
Maybe there's another hidden shop somewhere. Is that what you're selling items to get to an ancient island?
Collect more information on mini-games in other villages. Just like here, there may be some secrets hidden.
It would be worth looking for. It seems that we can come here at any time using a transfer formation, and we can replenish the breeding case at any time. No, my soul is nagging.
"Then give me an oversized breeding case!
"Yes, thank you"
In the meantime, buy the case up to the full upper limit and start the transfer formation. If there are a lot of transfer formations on the main island too, we might run out of amber.
"Maybe we should go digging on an ancient island again."
"Mogmo!"
"I'll ask you to mine then."
"Mog!"
