In the stairwell on the third floor, Hakeem, who was leading the way, said, "The maze on the third floor is quite complicated. Please follow closely behind me. Otherwise, it will be quite troublesome if you get lost. "
Although the young man said so, he didn't intend to wait at all. As soon as he reached the exit, he suddenly sped up and stepped into the third floor. Archmage Kabanbai followed closely and secretly used a secret spell to track the young apprentice's footsteps.
Lin, who was holding something in his hand, was one step behind the two of them before he entered the third floor of Tower VI. Only to see … the arrogant young man leading the old man walked as if he was flying, circling back and forth on an empty floor. Archmage Kabanbai looked back from time to time, his anxious expression obvious.
The young man said contemptuously, "Don't worry, this is just a maze. There are no traps that can hurt people. I'll send you to the stairwell to the fourth floor first and then find the other one. "
Looking at the two of them and recalling the rumors about the illusion maze on the third floor of Tower VI, Lin guessed that the two of them might be walking in the illusion maze. Then, what he saw was …?
The floor area of the empty floor, compared to the floor area of the first and second floors, should be the actual floor area of this Magic Tower.
The stairwell that led to the upper floor was right across from where he was standing. Apart from the two staircases, the entire floor only had eight thick pillars, and above them hung dim lights that emanated authority. The two people who looked like they were running through a maze were actually just going around in circles between the pillars.
Lin Li, who could see all this clearly, was suspicious of what he saw. What exactly was it? Was it a very, very real illusion? Lin boldly walked to the third floor and touched one of the pillars. He didn't trigger any mechanism or trap. Only the rather real feeling came from his hand.
It seemed that the illusion on the third floor didn't have any effect on him. That was why he could see this scene directly. Or was this actually a trick to mislead him into thinking that what he saw was real?
Lin ignored the two people who were happily walking around and walked across the floor. He walked to the stairs leading to the fourth floor and stuck his head out to take a look. Should he ignore the two people and go up by himself? Or should he wait for them to go up together?
Although the former saved time, it was somewhat impolite. What was the point of leaving the guide behind? Not to mention, if they went up to the fourth floor without the guide, they might trigger some fatal traps. A certain person thought for a moment, then retreated to the side and waited for the other two. He wasn't in a hurry anyway.
Even so, Lin waited for almost half an hour. During this time, the young man kept bragging about himself, saying that it would take a normal person at least half a day to pass through a maze of this level, but he only needed a little time.
Speaking of which, that person's little bit of time was really long. There was no instant noodles in the maze. Otherwise, he could boil some water, make some instant noodles, and wait for three minutes. He could finish two bowls of instant noodles, but he still hadn't seen the two of them coming to the staircase.
Because waiting was too boring, Lin decided to release his reconnaissance vision. In an instant, he saw all the flow trajectories and volumes of Magic Authority on the floor of the third floor.
Compared to the Tower of the Great Sage that he had modified, it paled in comparison. However, the internal magic array of the VI Tower was much more detailed and complicated than that of a traditional Magic Tower.
The main magic effect was, of course, Illusion Magic. This spell, which specialized in confusing people, formed a system in the maze. From the simplest camouflage to powerful illusions that could mislead people's perception and make them think that what they saw could actually be touched. And not only could people touch, but some high-level Illusion Magic could also be smelled and tasted.
Some mages, who didn't do their job properly, were even keen on creating illusions of beautiful women and having sex with them to get pleasure from it. Such an experience couldn't be said to be completely fake, but it wouldn't exceed their own experience.
To put it simply, people who had never tasted sweetness couldn't experience a taste that they had never experienced before just because they ate sweetness in an illusion. Similarly, people who had never experienced sex with women couldn't give up their chastity from the bodies of beautiful illusions. These powerful illusions, in the words of Earth, were enough to affect the brain's endocrine hormones, thus causing people to have a false 'real' experience.
Such high-level Illusion Magic was never seen in the magical knowledge database of the Sika branch of the Society of Sorcerers. And illusions, which were used to mislead people, were a very important part of someone's life-saving magic system. So, of course, he seriously recorded everything he saw and began to calculate.
Perhaps he hadn't calculated the extensible magic effect, but the cracking method was already in front of his eyes. But what he didn't know was why the illusion spell was ineffective on him before he found a way to break it.
After thinking about it, could it be that his dimensionality reduction method for high-dimensional information cognition worked? That was a method of understanding designed for those incomprehensible high-dimensional existences during the study of the World Tree.
To put it simply, it was to use the known parts as the starting point and constantly expand the cognition outward, screening the parts that could be recognized, discarding the superfluous junk information, or transforming these superfluous parts through various methods so that they could be recognized and processed by one's brain. In the end, he would get a reasonable piece of information that he could recognize and wouldn't be burned by the junk information of high-dimensional existences.
But this kind of processing wouldn't completely eliminate the negative effects. But the remaining negligible effects would instead become experience points for training the brain's information processing ability, constantly improving the field and range of cognition that a certain someone could recognize. According to Cthulhu's worldview, it was a decrease in the Sanity Value, getting closer and closer to those indescribable things.
But in the magical world of the Land of Enchantment, this wasn't entirely a bad thing. And this kind of growth, for mages who often came into contact with mysterious things, was the inevitable result of the accumulation of experience unknowingly. So, in most cases, experienced mages were better than fledgling magic apprentices. Because this kind of understanding that went beyond common sense was helpful for spellcasting.
But mages in the Land of Enchantment grew slowly in an equal way. A certain someone, on the other hand, grew at an exponential speed continuously, which was why he was what he was today. But for this, a certain someone didn't realize it at all.
After all, until now, he still thought that the tower in his dream was as simple as what he saw. In fact, in that endless deep space, there were still many secrets that had yet to be discovered, but they were indeed affecting him.
Just as Lin was about to start the sixth round of calculations, the young apprentice finally brought Great Mage Kabanbai to the stairs leading to the fourth floor.
Hakeem panted and said, "Master Kabanbai, please wait here for a moment. I'll go back to find another guest. It's not like I can't not find him. If the thing that I want to offer isn't in his hands, then I can directly lead you to the fifth floor to meet my teacher. Now, I really don't know how much time I have to waste to find someone who is trapped in some unknown place. "
In comparison, this white-haired old man didn't have the same flushed face and panting appearance as the young man. He looked angrily at this young apprentice who didn't know when to back down. If they weren't in someone else's magic tower, he would have definitely exploded on the spot. But, under the eaves, he had to lower his head. So, Kabanbai didn't comment on the other party's insatiable words and only looked coldly at him.
But Lin, who was standing next to the stairs, was very surprised. Could it be that they couldn't see him just because he was a few steps away?
If he really let the young man go back to the maze to find someone, who knew how long it would take him? So, Lin simply blocked the young man's path and used the wooden box in his hand to stop him.
The sudden appearance of the box caught Hakeem off guard and he bumped into it. Fortunately, there was still a wooden box between them. Otherwise, the two of them would have collided.
After muttering a few curses, he realized a problem. Where did this box that suddenly appeared come from? When he raised his head, he saw that detestable face.
Lin tried to put on an amiable smile and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's not waste time and quickly go to the fourth floor. "
"How did you …" Hakeem looked at Lin in astonishment and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Great Mage Kabanbai walked past the young man with bad intentions and happily said to Lin, "Little Guy, you're following. That's great. Let's go quickly. We don't want to keep Miladis waiting for too long. "
"Okay," Lin replied. At the same time, the two of them looked at the young apprentice whose face was flushed red.
Hakeem knew that taking the initiative to start a conflict with a great mage was not a good choice. He took a few deep breaths and put on a sinister smile, saying, "You two, please follow me to the fourth floor."
As the young apprentice walked up, Lin seriously thought, 'How did I offend him? This is the first time I've met him. Or did I not know that I've already become the target of public anger? '
The scene on the fourth floor was completely different from the third floor. At least in Lin's eyes, it was no longer an empty floor.
It was like a space that had been cut into countless pieces, and some kind of mechanism would trigger changes that would connect them.
Coincidentally, just before the three of them stepped onto the fourth floor, the passageway in front of them changed. Without any warning, the place where there was a wall suddenly became a passage, and there was an extra wall where there was originally a passage. Especially when they reached the fourth floor. Although they only caught a glimpse before the changes happened, they vaguely saw a staircase going up, and then it disappeared.
Hakeem turned around and pointed at the changing floor in front of them, saying, "This is the most mysterious space labyrinth in the VI tower. It changes according to the time of day. If you think that you can pass through the labyrinth as long as you remember the different changes, then you are wrong. This is because the labyrinth will change according to the actions of the intruder. Are the two of you interested in trying this labyrinth? "
It was obvious that he was trying to make things difficult for them. This was because the two who followed behind clearly felt that the young apprentice seemed to have activated some kind of magical item, and it emitted power. And that item was most likely the switch to start the labyrinth on the fourth floor.
If it was really as complicated as the young man said, how could they pass through this labyrinth on a daily basis? Could it be that he had memorized all the changes in his heart, and could intuitively pass through such a complicated labyrinth?
Great Mage Kabanbai already wanted to turn around and leave.
