Chapter 47 The Adventurer's Diary(1/2)

After the skeleton army left, Ji Xun collected the cash scraped from the two corpses on the ground, which totaled more than two thousand.

It's almost the same salary that was deducted before.

It can be considered that the two owe nothing to each other.

Not sure if the sound of gunshots would cause any trouble, he didn't dare to stay longer and followed the traces left by the skeletons.

After walking through several passages, I saw hundreds of skeleton monsters piled in the corridor, and a mangled and bloody corpse lying on the ground.

It's none other than Scarlet Liu.

The body was also found, all the witnesses were dead, and there was no need to worry about anything.

At this time, the sound of fighting in the passage was already very fierce.

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows as he listened.

After identifying that the sound of fighting came from the nine o'clock direction, he decisively chose the passage at three o'clock and plunged in, heading all the way to the depths of the maze.

...

Before, Ji Xun was worried about hitting monsters if he walked too fast, but now that there is no threat from skeleton monsters, the road ahead is clear at once.

There is no need to walk in fear like before, you can still run along the way.

Moreover, he deliberately chose a corridor with many skeletons.

Skeleton monsters that are not triggered by humans are just a pile of broken bones on the ground most of the time.

Only a small number of complete bodies wander in the maze.

Ji Xun completely suppressed his fear and calmly stepped on the skeletons without any accidents.

Occasionally, when you encounter [Skeleton Commander], [Elite Skeleton] will notice something unusual and turn your head to look.

After activating the clown mask, the skeleton leader will immediately lose his target and stand blankly on the spot.

If it were just skeletons and mazes, Ji Xun felt that the difficulty of this extradimensional space was much lower than 407.

Moreover, the people in the Governor's Mansion also attracted most of the dangers in the maze.

Even with the mysterious [Secret Keeper], Ji Xun gradually came up with some ideas.

He chose the corridor with more skeletons not on a whim, but on a conjecture.

The hint of the maze is: This is an extra-dimensional space where the resentment of 300,000 workers was trapped and killed.

So here comes the question.

Who killed these 300,000 workers?

It just so happened that the [Keeper of Secrets] gave another reminder that it would keep the secret of the tomb and kill all living creatures.

Could it be that they were the workers killed by the secret keeper?

If so, if you were killed, would the resentment left behind make your murderer forgotten?

Therefore, he felt that where there were many skeleton monsters, the probability of the secret keeper appearing would be lower.

Of course, what supports this inference still comes from another judgment made by Ji Xun: the essence of extradimensional space is not to kill people.

He has now understood that there are many modes of extradimensional space in this world.

Pure monster killing, puzzle solving, survival, battle royale, bloody confrontation, plot, single player challenge, team competition, hell...

Different modes have different ways to break the game.

If encountering the [Secret Keeper] means death, then this cemetery maze is not a "decryption mode", but a matter of pure luck.

Since it is a decryption, this monster must have a way to survive for those who encounter it.

Ji Xun doesn't know what that "method" is yet.

But at present, it seems that staying in the corridor with many skeletons is always the right thing to do.

...

Ji Xun can think of these things, and some people can probably think of them too.

But if others think of it, they may not be able to do it.

At least not the people at the Governor's Mansion.

There are definitely many talented people in the Frost Knight Legion, and maybe there are some who can keep the sanity value from fluctuating drastically like Ji Xun.

But Governor Cao had too many guards, and it was impossible for everyone to maintain that absolute calmness.

When there are more people, there are more targets to attract hatred, but they have to unite to protect the governor.

Therefore, their only way to clear the level is to kill monsters and push through.

Ji Xun can already see their ending.

Attract monsters along the way and kill them along the way.

In the end, the battle came down to one soldier and one soldier.

Moreover, Ji Xun suspected that the reason for triggering the hatred of the skeleton monster might not be just the sanity value.

Even "heroic", "uplifting" and other violent mood swings can also attract hatred.

Just like when a hunter comes to a maze to spawn monsters, the monsters will inevitably be triggered.

As long as there is a battle, this kind of rational fluctuation is inevitable.

so.

No matter what the situation is, the Governor and his group are still dead.

But reasoning is reasoning.

The life and death of the people in the Governor's Mansion has nothing to do with him. In the end, Ji Xun still has to get out of the maze to survive.

He walked all the way, carefully searching for clues.

.......

In this way, Ji Xun walked leisurely in the maze.

Cracking mazes was also one of his favorite entertainment games in his previous life, and he didn't feel any panic at all when he was trapped.

Without a sense of crisis, the fluctuations in sanity will be small, and skeleton hatred will not be triggered.

A virtuous cycle.

He explored along the tunnel where skeletons were densely packed, and occasionally found some glowing bones among the piles of skeletons.

This kind of bone ground into powder is called "bone dust", which is an extraordinary material.

It is used in the production of many undead and dark cards, and is in high demand.

It is also the material that this maze produces the most.

But Ji Xun's storage ring has limited space, and it won't be worth much if it's full. He picked some up and ignored them.

As for killing monsters, he didn't think about it at all.

Even though he saw some skeleton elites that were obviously potentially explosive materials and cards, he didn't think so.

The best option now is to do nothing.

Wait until everyone in the Governor's Mansion is dead first.

In this way, we walked for more than half an hour.

I don’t know if he guessed it right or if he was lucky and chose to take the passage with more skeletons, but he didn’t encounter a single [Secret Keeper].

...

Ji Xun has the ability of photographic memory. As he walked all the way through the maze, a maze model like a QR code gradually formed in his mind.

But even so, he would always take out his notebook to write and draw.

He couldn't guarantee whether the maze was a physical maze or a metaphysical maze like a ghost breaking through a wall.

I am afraid that some mysterious factors will interfere with my perception.

So walk along and mark along the way.

Physics notes can have a little more error tolerance.

Gradually, he also discovered that this maze was indeed outrageous.

He just walked all the way, picking up materials along the way, and wandered in this dark maze for a long time without finding any sign of getting out.

But it takes an average of three to five days to get out of this maze.

He wasn't in a hurry either.

In addition to skeletons, we occasionally encounter some special things.

But while walking, Ji Xun suddenly stopped looking and found a skeleton in the corner carrying an adventure backpack.

"Another one..."
