Return of the Frozen Player 505

Maze of the Exiled (5)

Seo Jun-ho approached the corpse of the monster that was imitating him, somewhere in the five oceans, no, in the Maze.

‘Memories of the dead.’

As always, a memory image appeared in front of my eyes.

However, the contents of the screen were different from usual.

“Contractor, is this only for the eyes of the woman who saw it? It’s dark and you can’t see anything.”

“… … Even in my eyes.”

I don’t see any memories.

All you see is a pitch-black screen.

Seo Jun-ho was troubled.

‘This is the first time this has happened.’

There were times when the confession of the dead did not work.

For example, the c*ckroaches that served as Erevo’s mental body on the 4th floor.

Because the ability against them was not used at all.

However, like now, the ability itself is used, but the case where nothing is visible was unfamiliar.

“Turn the time forward or backward.”

“okay.”

The moment Seo Jun-ho tries to edit the timeline of the video, bubbling!

“Come on, contractor! It’s just bubbling! Like ramen boiling water!”

The corpse, which had been bubbling over, melted away. without a second hand.

At the same time, intuition spoke to me.

-Partner, it’s never a natural phenomenon. Looks like someone intervened.

‘That’s what I think.’

The corpse, which had been fine, suddenly melted without any warning.

As if he was trying to block the corpse’s memories from being seen any more.

‘Like my intuition said, someone’s intervention took place.’

If so, watch the action of this side

It is natural to think that there is

Seo Jun-ho did not wander around like a kid.

It’s to the extent that you can’t get caught by your own feelings, so it must be an opponent you can’t find with the naked eye.

‘First of all, surveillance is attached. Would you be satisfied with getting that much clue?’

After coming to his own conclusion, Seo Jun-ho approached the players.

“Okay, I’m sorry I got excited earlier. I almost died with a knife in the back in the maze.”

“Because it was me who attacked without explanation.”

“ha ha ha! I like this hero a little bit.”

Halgi turned to the other two with his typical easy-going smile.

“Even though it is an improvised team. I think there is a big difference in efficiency with and without a leader. I want to recommend Uduk Sunny as the leader.”

The ability to grasp the situation and the ability to deal with crises that was shown earlier, and even decisiveness.

He even had a career in leading players a long time ago, so he was perfect for the role of leader.

“I like it. Thanks to that, I was able to overcome the crisis.”

“I will not object either. Because I have shown the ability to earn trust.”

After two people agreed, Seo Jun-ho naturally became the leader of the group.

He threw a few demands at the three before departing.

“I read your profile. However, as the situation is, I want to hear it from their mouths in detail.”

“hmm! Then I’ll tell you first.”

Halgi Goodrickson was a typical vanguard, that is, a tanker.

“My hidden armor cannot be seen with the naked eye. In other words, the moment the opponent thinks the attack is successful, a gap is created.”

“Any other abilities?”

“With strength enhancement… … Hehe, and a proud Viking soul.”

Except for Hidden Armor, there were no abilities that were very useful.

The unexpected harvest was Alba Mills.

“I’m not looking for a path or a trap,

Edo, I can see through the enemy’s weakness.”

“Hmm, it’s a weakness anyway, isn’t it something you naturally come to know after fighting each other?”

At Halgi’s words, Alba snorted.

“It’s important to know that before you even fight it. Besides, it’s not just about detecting weaknesses. If you aim for the weak spot I found, an additional explosion will occur.”

“Then you’ll be a good match for me.”

Nilvas’ javelin explodes on hit

all.

If Alba can plug it into the weak spot she found, it could cause two explosions.

“Thank you for sharing.”

After thinking about their abilities for a while, Seo Jun-ho decided on a formation.

“Halgi potential. Alba and Neil Bass will support me from the rear, and I will take on the role of roaming around the battlefield to help or cut off enemies who are aiming for the two people in the back.”

A composition close to the standard that everyone can understand.

Only Alba Mills tilted her head.

“Wouldn’t it be better for me to be in the lead and search for traps when not in combat?”

“I don’t have time for that.”

The time given to them is now about 23 hours and 52 minutes.

According to Seo Jun-ho’s intuition, it didn’t seem like a very leisurely time.

He got up from his seat and opened his mouth.

“We’ll be leaving in 15 minutes, so prepare by then.”

* * *

The space in the maze was wide enough for ten men to stand with their arms spread out.

The four of them sprinted through the maze in a dreary wind.

‘It’s different from an ordinary maze.’

Seo Jun-ho had been through a maze-type dungeon several times.

Not to mention, I hadn’t entered the maze with the demons even a few years ago.

me.

Back then, the entire maze was covered with monsters called wall warts, parasitic on walls.

‘But I don’t see that kind of monster here.’

Instead, of course, there was something else.

Pabababababak!

“box… … !”

Before Alba could even shout a warning, a huge darkness fell and crushed hundreds of trap arrows.

Seo Jun-ho muttered calmly.

“Keep running.”

“Uh, uh uh.”

“… … It’s a reflex reflex that I can’t adapt to even if I see it.”

Every few tens of seconds, a trap aimed at killing an intruder was triggered.

If the team hadn’t had Seo Jun-ho, the speed of breaking through the maze would have increased dozens of times.

“At this speed, no matter how wide the maze is, I can get out of it in no time!”

The moment when Halgi turned the corner shouting in triumph.

Cad de de de de deuk!

Sharp claws scratched his ‘hidden armor’.

“Mo, monster! It’s a surprise!”

The goblins in the maze didn’t feel anything until they appeared right in front of them.

‘… … three horses. It’s the first monster I’ve ever seen.’

They were also very bizarre in appearance.

He was bipedal, but his arms split into four legs like a mantis’s claws.

It was sharp.

Furthermore, the place where the face should be is filled with sharp teeth.

“Alba! What are their weaknesses?”

“I’m looking for you!”

Alba, whose eyes were stained with white light, glared at the monster’s body.

After a while, the belly of the monsters began to glow brightly.

“pit of the stomach! The pit of the stomach is a weakness!”

“Kiaaaagh!”

The monsters, with four arms outstretched in a threatening pose, slash at incredible speed.

ran to

‘These guys are fast… … !’

Earlier, I thought it was a surprise attack, but the speed itself was ridiculously fast.

At a speed that far exceeded expectations, Halgi drew in his breath.

He hurriedly swung his axe, but he only pushed one away.

“Keep down!”

At that time, Halgi crouched down at the sound of a voice suddenly flying from behind.

Wow!

A javelin stuck in the belly of one of the monsters caused two explosions, sending it ricocheted into a wall.

Nilvas shouted as he created a new javelin.

“I will protect you, so don’t collapse.”

“… … Hey, you’re strong!”

Halgi sighed, grabbed the axe, and ran forward.

Kwajik!

An ax lodged in one of the monster’s knees severed the creature’s leg intact.

“Hehe, I can’t move fast anymore.

ji?”

With a gap between the flying claws, Halgi swung the ax like chopping firewood.

Kwaduk! Kwaduk! Kwajik!

“Kyaaaaaagh!”

The screaming monster swung its claws wildly, but the Hidden Armor was much harder than I thought.

Close by! The unpleasant sound of claws scraping armor spread throughout the maze.

“Go one more!”

A javelin that flew from behind hit the belly of another monster rushing at Halki.

As blood gushed out like a fountain with the explosion, Seo Jun-ho clenched his fists.

“Red thorns.”

Damn it!

The clot of blood that froze in an instant cut off the breath of the two remaining animals at once.

“ha ha ha! This fits better than I thought!”

Having finished the battle without much damage, he shouted with a flushed face.

Seo Jun-ho nodded roughly and stared at the corpse.

‘… … It melts again.’

The bodies of the monsters melted and disappeared at a much faster rate than before.

Apparently, he’s trying to make sure he can’t use ‘Confession of the Dead’ again.

‘It must mean that there is so much to hide.’

If you read the memory, the maze strategy is easy.

It must have been so desperate to block it because it was revealed.

“Okay, let’s start again… … uh?”

Alba Mills, who continued to speak, widened her eyes.

she asked, looking in the direction they had passed.

“Are we sure we came from that road?”

“How many minutes have you forgotten about?”

“No, that would be too strange.”

She retorted by holding up a map she was making in real time.

“We had a battle right around the corner. Don’t you remember being ambushed?”

At those words, the three of them looked back.

A cool aisle with no walls in sight stretches far into the distance.

Halgi swallowed and said.

“Hey, that means… …

“It sounds like the left hand method that you have been using is also useless.”

Trapped in the maze of left-handed or right-handed methods

A commonly used escape method when caught.

It is a method of designating one wall and moving all the way along that wall.

As long as the maze is not divided into rounds, it is possible to escape with a 100% chance.

“But it sounds like the path you’ve been through has changed.”

“It means that the road we are going through can also change.”

However, in a maze where the structure changes in real time, it is a method that is worse than not doing it.

Seo Jun-ho looked at the remaining time.

[23:31:07]

Thanks to the quick breakthrough of the maze, there is still time… … .

[23:19:06]

[23:07:05]

blink, blink

With two blinks, the remaining time decreased by 24 minutes.

Seo Jun-ho’s face was distorted.

“It’s dark, what’s wrong all of a sudden?”

“What’s wrong?”

“……hour.”

The party, who belatedly checked the time, let out a startled voice.

“hmm? Has time already passed like this?”

“no. The time is different from the timer set for Vita. There’s a difference of ten minutes.”

“Ugh! Just 12 minutes down! Did everyone see it?”

[22:54:53]

For the third time already, time has decreased.

Seo Jun-ho was troubled.

‘We have something in common.’

That is, when the time decreased, it decreased by 12 minutes.

If there is a pattern, there must be a reason for it.

“… … aha.”

As he was diligently rolling his head, Surrey, a former detective in District 51 of Trium, laughed heartily.

“Well, that’s an easy trick. Wouldn’t it be too difficult for the original woman?”

“12 minutes, 12 minutes.”

When Seo Jun-ho lightly ignored the words, she stomped on the ground and shouted.

“Oh, it’s true! I saw you this time for real

I reasoned with!”

“… … Okay, let’s listen.”

I asked without much expectation, and Frost’s eyes twinkled.

“Listen? Aren’t there 120 members on the 7th floor?”

The moment he heard those words, Seo Jun-ho’s face hardened.

“No, like that… … Nonsense.”

“Uh huh? Was my calculation wrong?”

With frost on his face, he folded his fingers and started counting again.

But the reason Seo Jun-ho was surprised was that

It wasn’t because

‘This guy, when did he become so smart?’

A kid who couldn’t even do multiplication and division succeed in reasoning like this?

‘this… … The highest level 4 spirit?’

Shocked by the fact that he had lost to her, Seo Jun-ho opened his mouth.

“No, you are right.”

120 players on the 7th floor.

The secret was that the remaining time would decrease by 12 minutes each time one of them died.

‘Even each team has a monster that mimics a human being hidden.’

The system’s warning came to mind again.

-Please do not forget that this malicious maze aims to entice and ‘kill’ intruders.

This is not a ‘fair and fair’ stage where players have been proving their abilities.

In other words, players thoroughly

A cruel execution ground built to kill.

Seo Jun-ho’s face became as cold as ice.

“I guess my judgment was wrong.”

I thought the current speed would be sufficient, but it was absurdly lacking.

He opened his mouth thinking of the players who must be dying somewhere in the maze at this time.
