Chapter 47 Adventurer's Diary
   After the skeleton army left, Ji Xun collected the cash scraped from the two corpses on the ground, which added up to more than two thousand.
  It is almost the wages deducted before.
   It can be considered that the two do not owe each other.
   Not knowing if the gunshots would cause any trouble, he didn't dare to stay longer, and followed the traces left by the skeletons to find it.
  Walking through several passages, I saw hundreds of skeleton monsters piled up in the passageway, and a chopped-up **** corpse lying on the ground.
   It is the scarlet head Liu.
  The body was also found, and all witnesses died, so there is no need to worry about the future.
   At this time, the sound of fighting in the passage was already very intense.
  Ji Xun frowned.
   After distinguishing that the battle sound came from the direction of nine o'clock, he decisively chose the passage in the direction of three o'clock and plunged in, walking all the way to the depths of the maze.
  Before, Ji Xun was worried about running too fast and bumping into monsters, but now that there is no threat of skeleton monsters, the road ahead is clear at once.
   You don’t have to walk in fear like before, you can still trot all the way.
   Moreover, he deliberately chose a corridor with many skeletons.
  Skeleton monsters that are not triggered by humans are mostly a pile of broken bones on the ground.
   Only a small number of intact individuals wander the maze.
  Ji Xun completely suppressed his fear fluctuations, and calmly stepped on those skull bones, and nothing happened.
   Occasionally encounter [Skeleton Commander] and [Elite Skeleton], and you will notice some abnormalities, and turn your head to look.
   Activate the clown mask, and the skeleton commander will immediately lose his target and stand on the spot blankly.
   If it was just skeletons and mazes, Ji Xun felt that the difficulty of this different-dimensional space was much lower than that of 407.
  And the pedestrians in the Governor's Mansion also attracted most of the dangers in the maze.
   Even the mysterious [Keeper of Secrets], Ji Xun gradually had some ideas.
  He chose the tunnel with many skeletons not on a whim, but a guess.
  The hint of the labyrinth is: This is a different-dimensional space where 300,000 laborers were killed and resented.
   So here comes the problem.
  Who killed these 300,000 laborers?
   It just so happened that the [Keeper of Secrets] gave another reminder that it will keep the secrets of the tomb and kill all living things.
  Could it be the laborers killed by secret keepers?
   If so, you were killed, will the resentment left behind forget your murderer?
  So he felt that where there were many skeletons, the probability of keeping secrets would be lower.
  Of course, what supports this inference still comes from Ji Xun's other judgment: the essence of the different-dimensional space is not to kill people.
  He has now learned that there are many modes of different-dimensional spaces in this world.
   Pure monster killing, puzzle solving, survival, battle royale, **** killing, plot, single player challenge, team competition, hell.
  Different modes have different ways to break the game.
  If encountering the 【Keeper of Secrets】is fatal, then this maze in the Great Cemetery is not a "puzzle-solving mode", but pure luck.
  Since it is solving puzzles, then this monster must have a way to make people who encounter it survive.
  Ji Xun didn't know what that "method" was for the time being.
   But at present, it seems that it is always right to stay in the tunnel with many skeletons.
  Ji Xun can think of these things, and some people probably can think of them too.
  But others have thought of it, but they may not be able to do it.
  At least the group of people in the Governor's Mansion can't.
   There are absolutely many capable people in the Frost Knights, and perhaps there are some who can keep the San value from fluctuating violently like Ji Xun.
  But Governor Cao has too many guards, and it is impossible for everyone to maintain that kind of absolute calm.
  The more people there are, the more targets will attract hatred, but they have to stick together to protect the governor.
  So their only way to clear the level is to kill monsters and push.
  Ji Xun can already see their ending.
  Attract monsters all the way and kill them all the way.
  Final battle to one soldier.
   Moreover, Ji Xun suspects that the reason for triggering the hatred of the skeleton monster may not only be the lowering of the San value.
   Even other violent mood swings such as "heroic" and "exhilarating" will also pull hatred.
   It's like the reason that hunters come to the maze to spawn monsters, and they will inevitably trigger monsters.
  As long as there is a fight, this kind of sanity fluctuation is inevitable.
 so.
  No matter what the situation is, the governor and the group are still dead.
   But reasoning belongs to 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, looking for clues carefully.
   Just like that, Ji Xun walked leisurely in the maze.
   Breaking the maze was also one of his favorite entertainment games in his previous life, and he didn't feel any panic when he was trapped.
  Without a sense of crisis, the fluctuation of sanity will be small, and the hatred of skeletons will not be triggered.
   Virtuous circle.
  He explored the tunnel with dense skeletons all the way, and occasionally found some glowing bones among the piles of skeletons.
   This kind of bone ground into powder is called [bone dust], this kind of extraordinary material.
   Many undead and dark card productions can be used, and there is a great demand.
   is also the material that this maze produces the most.
   But Ji Xun's storage ring has limited space, and it's not worth much if it's full, so if you pick up some, you don't care.
   As for killing monsters, he didn't think about it at all.
  Even if he saw some elite skeletons who were obviously likely to explode good materials and cards, he didn't think so.
  The best option right now is to do nothing.
   Wait until all the people in the Governor's Mansion die first.
   Just like that, I walked for more than half an hour.
   I don’t know if he guessed it right, or because he was lucky. He chose to take the passage with many skeletons, but he didn’t even meet a [Keeper of Secrets].
  Ji Xun has the ability of photographic memory. He walked all the way in the maze, and gradually formed a maze model like a QR code in his mind.
   But even so, he always took out his notebook to write and draw.
  He is temporarily unsure whether this maze is a physical maze, or a metaphysical one like a ghost hitting a wall.
   I am afraid that some mysterious factors will interfere with my perception.
   So go all the way, mark all the way.
  Physical notes can be more error-tolerant.
   Gradually, he also discovered that this maze is really outrageous.
  He just walked all the way, picking up materials all the way, wandering around this dark maze for a long time, but couldn't find any sign of getting out.
  But it takes an average of three to five days to get out of the maze.
  He is not in a hurry either.
  In addition to skeletons, I also occasionally encounter some special things.
   But while walking, Ji Xun suddenly stopped looking, and he found a skeleton with an adventure backpack in the corner.
   "Another one."
  Seeing this monster, Ji Xun raised his eyebrows slightly.
   This unusual skeleton is that of a treasure hunter who was trapped and died in a maze.
  Although the different-dimensional space will be refreshed every time someone enters, if the hunter who died in the maze before left something valuable, there is a chance to stay in the maze.
   It's like an "easter egg".
  The passage Ji Xun chose was less traveled, and the harvest was a little bit more.
  I met two dead bones before and found some valuable necromancer materials.
   This is the third one.
  Ji Xun walked over, and just reached out to pick up the backpack, suddenly, the skeleton's bone claws jumped up and grabbed his arm.
   This is also a small trap for getting easter eggs.
  Usually frightened by this, the fluctuation of San value will attract monsters around.
   Ji Xun was frightened for the first time, but now he is completely indifferent for the third time.
  Watching the skeleton wake up, he didn't even take a second look, and poked the dagger with his backhand on the white skull.
  The skeleton became quiet in an instant.
  The attack made the few skeletons wandering nearby seem to have noticed something, and turned their heads to look at it with black eye sockets, but the hatred disappeared in an instant.
  Ji Xun has already dealt with it very skillfully.
  He drew out his dagger and opened the package next to the bones.
   There are some exploration tools such as rope flying claws, which have a strong sense of age and look like the style of decades ago.
   There is also a yellowed notebook.
  It seems that things are not very valuable, which makes people feel a little disappointed.
   But flipping through the notes casually, Ji Xun's eyes were attracted to him.
   Only then did I realize that this is something more valuable than treasures.
   This is an adventure diary.
  Ji Xun looked at the contents of the notes and immediately guessed the identity of this person.
   This is not just a treasure hunter, but an adventurer.
   "My name is 'Yuri', an adventurer who likes to solve puzzles, I hope that someone who gets my notes will know that I have been here, and almost solved this maze."
"March 11: I entered the maze of the legendary Necropolis. I found that suppressing the fear in my heart will reduce the probability of attracting skeleton monsters. This is good news for me, so that I can explore the depths of the maze. here."
  「March 25th: I came to the depths of the maze, but unfortunately, I found that I was trapped」
  「.”
  When Ji Xun saw this, he immediately became interested.
   You can discover the monster hatred mechanism just by yourself, this guy is a master at deciphering.
   But after taking notes, he looked even more surprised: "This Yuri also triggered the hidden plot?"
   It turned out that it was not the first time.
   It was triggered by someone before.
"28th: ​​I finally deciphered the meaning of the Talun ancient texts on the murals, which triggered a hidden plot. Hahaha, I finally discovered an area that no one has ever been to. Oh, it's amazing, this maze is like this The design of the maze. Please allow me not to leave the solution method in the notes. If I write the answer, then no one in this maze will appreciate its exquisite design. If you see my notes, then give you a Cue word: run."
  Ji Xun frowned when he saw this, and chuckled softly in his heart.
   gave a hint, but didn't fully write it out.
   Looks useless.
  If you were an ordinary person, you might have to yell at a broken dog.
  But Ji Xun seems to have seen the deep meaning of the dead bone writing this line
   It's like reading a novel. Once the suspense is spoiled, the whole story will be overshadowed. Therefore, even if the author is being scolded, he will write some content that looks watery, laying a little foreshadowing.
   This notebook is for the adventurer named Yuri to show his peers, not for some people who can't understand the spirit of adventure.
   And if he still can't go to the place he has been to even with the reminder, then Yuri also feels that the person who got the note is not worthy of seeing his discovery.
 certainly.
   Probably because there are no spoilers, this notebook was left here by the will of space.
   This is also the "clue" left by the space.
  Ji Xun saw this, and pondered again in his heart: "However, what does this 'running' refer to?"
  In fact, when he walked the maze before, he had a rough assessment of the difficulty of the maze.
   No matter how complicated the layout of the pure two-dimensional maze is, it will never remain unsolved for so many years.
  So the final solution to the maze in the Great Cemetery must be the existence of some special mechanism, or an unexpected design.
   Now judging from the contents of the notes, that's it.
 certainly.
  Even without these notes, Ji Xun is confident that he will be able to find the right way if he spends some time.
  For him, the most important clues in this notebook are the recorded contents of Yuri's cause of death.
  He looked at it, and his expression gradually became serious.
"April 2: I didn't choose to go back because I knew I couldn't get the perfect pass. But I was getting close. I found another hidden passage in the maze. I avoided monsters and encountered a crescent symbol Shimen, I guess behind that door is the final hidden plot in the labyrinth. But the Tarun ancient texts on the stone carvings are too esoteric, and the encrypted information is hidden, so I tried my best to not open it. And there are too many skeleton elites wandering around here and Commander. Even if I suppress my fear as much as I can, I will still find out.”
"Damn it, the strength of the keepers is really terrifying. They are immortal and never tired. The perception distance of monsters is very wide, and there are a lot of them. If you don't pay attention, you will bump into them. The only weak point on monsters , probably because it has dynamic vision like a snake, and its perception of non-moving objects is slow, but this is not enough to keep me alive.”
  「April 5th: My injuries are getting worse and my supplies are exhausted. I probably don’t have a chance to go out. What a pity, it’s only the last step.」
  「I have been to this world, my name is Yuri, adventurer Yuri!」
  「.”
  The notes came to an abrupt end.
  Ji looked through the entire notebook and finally found the most important information.
   That's the key description about [Keeper of Secrets]: dynamic vision!
  This is the correct way to open a puzzle-solving heterodimensional space.
  Give necessary clues in a dead end.
   "Is it really impossible to kill the Keeper?"
  Ji Xun thought about the contents of the notes.
  When he looked at Enlightenment before, he thought that the word prefixed with monster was an exaggerated adjective, but he didn't expect it to be a realistic word.
   should belong to the "space rules".
   Just like the wall here, no matter what level of disaster the keeper is, it will not die.
   Put an end to the possibility of high-level hunters killing monsters and pushing horizontally.
  So, this is the serious puzzle-solving mode.
  Ji Xun was also stunned: "No wonder the planner wants to do it here."
  Who would have thought that a low-level different-dimensional space would hide the danger of annihilating the entire elite army of the Governor's Mansion?
   This really is the best place to murder.
   Even without the need for a killer to come forward, the monster can solve everyone trapped in the maze.
   Still have " " marks?
  Ji Xun saw the symbols on the notes, and suddenly remembered that he had seen such symbols on the cellar wall of Tailor Street before.
   Maybe there is a connection between the two?
   But the most useful information is the description of "dynamic vision".
  Knowing this, at least let Ji Xun really encounter the [Keeper of Secrets], and have some ways to deal with it.
   Thanks for the tip of ‘20221009215637694’.
