"Huh? You can do that? "Invincible Champion was surprised.
"Very good, we've found another way to change the ownership of the aura," Feng Bujue said darkly. "But this method doesn't seem very practical."
"That's only for you." Ye Zhi looked at Feng Bujue with condescension. "I think this method is much better than your chuunibyou declaration."
Feng Bujue heard that and shrugged. He did not comment.
Copernicus and Galileo walked to the front of the group to lead the way. They had been distracted by the Anomaly's flickering in and out of the radar, so with Feng Bujue's words, the two of them walked to the front of the group to lead the way.
The GMs knew the way to clear the scenario and the location of the flags. In this regard, Feng Bujue's skill, Strategic Victory, was far inferior to theirs. He used his title skill to see the boss was the well of resentment, but that was because when he observed it, Wailu was on the other side of the well, so he could not see it.
If there was no Anomaly in this scenario, there was a specific condition for the players to reach the real boss. And the basic way to clear the scenario did not require them to face Wailu.
From the GM menu, they could see that there were four Soul Harvesting Matrices on the mountain. Three of the normal matrices were scattered around the mountain, and one of the matrices was at the bottom of the well of resentment. According to the normal process, once the players entered the mountain after the start of the game, they would definitely encounter a regular Soul Snatching Circle. As long as they could survive the illusion and break it, they would be able to trigger the notification of the main quest. At that time, the system would notify the players that they had to break a total of four magic circles before they could seal the well of resentment.
Then, the players would clear the scenario by defeating the three normal matrices and the matrices. Of course, the matrices at the bottom of the well of resentment would be harder to deal with. But no matter what, Wailu would not show up if they took this route.
After Feng Bujue's group entered the scenario and walked in the opposite direction, they had discovered a hidden reward. Following that route, they would find a Soul Harvesting Matrices on a broken wall outside the mountain. Although completing this formation did not trigger any flags, in reality, this formation could be used to fill the quota for the main quest. In other words, the players who had dealt with this array beforehand would have a progress of 24/4 after they solved any of the regular arrays in the mountains and updated the main quest. This meant that the players who had completed the test of the mansion didn't have to fight against the main array of the Well of Resentment at all. They only had to deal with the four regular Soul-Snatching Arrays to pass the test.
The two game routes mentioned above were the conventional route of clearing the game without thinking and the simple route of clearing the game with the nature of solving puzzles. The latter was obviously less difficult, while the former required more troublesome battles.
Naturally, there was a third option. That was something that even GMs would not choose. It was also the simplest and most brutal option. He ignored everything, the illusions and all the other flags in the mountain. He killed his way to the shrine at the top of the mountain, jumped into the well, and rushed into the "other world" to kill Wailu.
Perhaps a six-man team at the level of a gaming studio might be able to do this, or perhaps two GMs without the interference of the Anomalies could avoid all the dangers along the way and directly enter the well to fight the real boss, and that might be possible as well. But for a normal player, this last option that relied on brute force to clear the game was practically impossible.
Since they had reached the easiest route to clear the scenario, and the Anomaly was so elusive, naturally, Galileo and Copernicus' original plan had to change. Initially, they had underestimated the players' strength, so they did not want to make things too complicated. Their plan was to quickly lead the team up the mountain, deal with the four magic arrays using the conventional route, and send the players away. But now, they had a chance to complete the main quest and send the players away without having to go to the top of the mountain, so they had to make good use of it.
After the six of them walked for a while, Galileo led the team away from the original mountain path and into the nearby forest.
Feng Bujue looked at the two's actions like a bystander and did not express any suspicion. On the other hand, Ye Zhi asked a few questions. However, the two brothers who specialized in 'investigation' echoed each other and gave a perfunctory explanation, so Ye Zhi didn't ask much.
Unknowingly, about twenty minutes had passed since they entered the mountain. The shadowy mountain forest and the constant slope under their feet gradually made them feel a kind of mental depression and fatigue.
"There is no real boundary to this forest," Galileo explained. "I believe the whole mountain entered some kind of spatial anomaly on the night of the 31st of October."
The message that Feng Bujue read from that sentence was five words, "Please be patient."
"Then let's stop going around in circles. We'll reach the top eventually if we keep going up the slope, right?" Invincible Champion suggested.
"You're too naïve," Feng Bujue said. "Since they said there is no boundary, then we can abandon the concept of direction. You think we're taking a detour, but that's only based on the slope under our feet. " He tilted his head and said, "Then … Imagine that we are walking on a piece of flat land, but the trees on this piece of land are all slanted, and the gravity is also tilted. Then, you will think that this is a slope."
"Hmm …" Invincible Champion could not imagine it.
"Other than that, the spatial anomaly means that the actual size of this mountain might be infinite." Feng Bujue continued. "In a place like this, if we keep going in the same direction, we'll be able to get out, and there's an eighty to ninety percent chance that we'll be stuck where we are." He drew a symbol of positive infinity in the air with his hand. "If this is a circular space with no exits, then from the moment we stepped in, there is no such thing as' walking out '. Only by breaking the space anomaly can we find the way out. But based on the current situation … this is a different situation. "
When the two GMs heard that, they both turned to look at him. Their expressions showed that Feng Bujue was right again.
"Based on the current situation?" Ye Zhi was confused. "What do you mean?"
"There's no trace of backtracking," Meng Jingchan suddenly said, and his words were concise and straight to the point.
"Ha! Impressive, looks like there's still someone who understands. "Feng Bujue laughed.
"You flatter me, same to you." Meng Jingchan said as he picked up the bottle and took another sip. This man was far more reliable than he looked.
Feng Bujue continued, "So far, have you seen anything familiar, or have you seen your own footprints?"
"Er … That's true," Invincible Champion said. Invincible Champion said, "But this mountain looks huge from the outside. That shouldn't mean anything, right?"
Galileo turned back to explain for Feng Bujue. "What we see from the outside and what we're currently in are two completely different spaces … For example …"
Before he could finish, Copernicus, who was at the front, suddenly raised his arm to make a gesture. He made a short but forceful shushing sound. Then he lowered his voice and said, "There's something ahead …"
