After being surprised and worried for a while, the seven or eight patriarchs finally calmed down and gathered together subconsciously.
"What should we do?" Someone immediately asked.
"We know nothing about the Runic Array. Even if we can find the Array Eye here, we can't activate it. So, I suggest that everyone search and see if there's a passage that leads directly to the Runic Array. After all, Lin Long might have entered from the passage. If we really can't find the passage, we can only pray that they can walk out safely and obtain those treasures, "Fang Feiyang said after thinking for a while.
"Since things have come to this, we can only do that." Lin Qingshan immediately nodded.
The others also did not have any good ideas, so after pondering for a while, they all agreed with Fang Feiyang's idea.
At that moment, the group of people immediately split up and searched for a possible passage on this mountain peak.
Even though almost all the families in the town knew about this incident, the patriarchs of the major families didn't intentionally spread the news. Therefore, the number of people who followed them to this mountain peak was pitifully small. As a result, there were only a dozen or so people who had split up to search for possible passageways.
At this moment, the underground scene was completely different.
After a moment of surprise, fear, and worry, these young boys and girls realized that they had actually entered an incomparably huge palace maze.
They soon cheered excitedly because they discovered that there were faint runic arrays on the surrounding walls. This also meant that they had already entered the ruins of the nameless mountain.
The reason why they made this trip was to enter the ruins, so when they saw that they finally succeeded, they were naturally extremely excited.
Although they were excited, the seemingly incomparably huge maze in front of them and the whereabouts of their little companions made their beating hearts quickly cool down.
However, a clear and ethereal voice that suddenly floated from the surrounding walls seemed to make them understand what was going on.
"The battle has begun. When there are only seven people left in the maze, the maze will automatically open the next passage." It was an incomparably crisp sound, but it was so illusory that no one could tell where it came from.
This voice caused the expressions of most of the people in the labyrinth to change. They had only come in for a share of the loot, but the meaning behind this sentence clearly indicated that there would be a storm of blood in this labyrinth.
"Who are you?"
"Is this true? Is it true that only seven people can leave the maze?"
"This is not the time for jokes."
"Get the hell out here!"
"Damn it! Do you believe that when I catch you, I will make you wish you were dead?"
…
For a moment, all kinds of sounds came from every corner of the maze. However, they soon realized that everything they did was in vain. The voice never appeared again.
At this time, the three of them were walking in a corner of the maze.
Two of these three people were from the same clan. After hearing that inexplicable voice, the other person immediately subconsciously distanced himself from the other two.
"Su Feng, what do you mean?" One of the two from the same clan frowned when he saw Su Feng's actions.
"Brother Guo, I don't mean anything else. I … just feel that if it's really like what that voice said, and we all came in together … wouldn't the thirty of us have to kill each other until only seven of us are left … to walk out of this maze?" Su Feng said. He looked as if he was trying his best to maintain his calm, but his trembling voice betrayed him.
After listening to Su Feng, the two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, one of them said, "Su Feng, you're really smart. We actually didn't think of this. Thank you for reminding us."
After saying that, the two of them took a step forward. When he saw the two of them getting closer to him, Su Feng, who was shocked, quickly retreated. Then, he quickly raised his hands and said, "Brother Guo, don't … don't misunderstand. I think there must be some kind of ferocious beast here. If we … kill each other and they succeed, wouldn't it be even worse?"
"Yes, Su Feng, you're right. It's indeed possible." The person who spoke before nodded.
"Su Feng, we're just joking with you. We see each other all the time in Chuxi Town. How could we do something like killing the people of our town?" The other person said with a smile.
"That's good. I was worried that you guys would take things too hard." Hearing the two of them say that, Su Feng felt relieved.
However, he did not expect that the moment he let down his guard, the two people who were originally smiling suddenly moved. One on the left and one on the right, pincer attacking him. The pitiful him did not even have the time to resist and was directly sent flying by a punch from the left and right of the two.
How could he, who was defenseless, resist such a strong punch? So, after he fell to the ground, his body twitched a few times before he stopped breathing.
"Haha, this idiot. He thinks we're idiots like him. There's no smell or sound of ferocious beasts in this maze. Where did the ferocious beasts come from?"
"There's one less person in the thirty people. Us two brothers have a higher chance of becoming one of the seven," the other person said with bright eyes.
Such a tragic thing happened among these people. However, at the very beginning, such things were very rare.
At this time, Su Ranran was walking with a young girl. She knew this girl. Her name was Fang Yu, and she was from the Fang family.
When she heard the strange voice, Fang Yu subconsciously distanced herself from Su Ranran. Then, she said worriedly, "Sister Ranran, you won't …"
Fang Yu knew the difference between her and Su Ranran.
"Of course not, Xiao Yu. Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Su Ranran smiled.
"That's good." Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she continued, "Sister Ranran, what should we do next?"
Fang Yu was two years younger than Su Ranran. In addition, she was much weaker than Su Ranran. Naturally, she followed Su Ranran's lead.
After thinking about it, Su Ranran said, "Let's find everyone and think of a way to leave this place. There must be a way to leave this place. It doesn't have to be just seven people."
"Yes." Hearing Su Ranran's words, Fang Yu nodded heavily. She felt that this was the only way.
Looking at the wall beside them, Fang Yu's eyes lit up. Then, she said excitedly, "Sister Ranran, how about we leave marks on this wall? As long as we make enough marks, we can find a way to leave this maze."
After saying that, without waiting for Su Ranran's reply, Fang Yu took out her dagger and started carving on the wall.
However, to her surprise, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't leave any marks on the wall.
Unwilling to give up, she immediately started carving again. If the first time didn't work, she tried again. If the second time didn't work, she tried again.
When she was about to carve for the tenth time, Su Ranran stopped her. "Xiao Yu, this wall has a runic array. With our abilities, we can't leave any marks on it. So, let's give up."
"Is that so?" Hearing Su Ranran's words, Fang Yu, who was already in despair, completely gave up.
After that, the two of them could only continue to explore the maze. Fortunately, the environment of the maze wasn't bad. It was just a little dark. Otherwise, they would definitely be in a bad mood.
