As Huang Daoheng expected, Freddy was obviously not willing to fight with them because of the curse seal of the "Dharma Protector", so this guy was lurking like a patient old hunter, waiting for everyone to reveal their flaws. Then give everyone a fatal blow.
But precisely because of this, everyone did not encounter any attacks along the way and arrived in front of the castle maze smoothly!
What was in front of Huang Daoheng and others at this moment was a huge maze. The maze was made of a special kind of thorny plants. These seemingly extremely tough and sharp thorny plants were piled up nearly ten meters high. The giant maze wall, and the upper part is also capped by these thorns, making it impossible for people to see what’s going on inside the maze!
At the same time, there is a huge wooden sign hanging at the entrance of the maze!
Just like the wooden sign hanging at the zoo campus, the wooden sign at the entrance of the maze also contains rules about the inside of the maze.

…
Different from the zoo area, there are actually as many as seven rules in the maze area, and these seven rules are extremely weird, which makes Huang Daoheng and others feel uneasy inexplicably!
Obviously, the dangers in this maze not only come from the mechanisms or monsters guarding the treasures, but also all kinds of inexplicable dangers waiting for them!
"The seventh rule is very similar to the rules in the zoo area, which means that we must not try to destroy the maze to achieve the effect of breaking through the level, otherwise we are very likely to be chased by all the monsters like in the zoo."
Zhang Hao carefully looked at the rules recorded on the wooden sign and analyzed: "In addition, there are three things in the maze that may help us, namely [rest area], [merchant] and monster [Sphinx]" ]!"
"There are food and drinks in the rest area, and these food and drinks are very likely to have special effects. Otherwise, there would be no additional sentence that can restore [energy]. That is something that can only be done by things like life source liquid."
"But similarly, the rest area is not absolutely safe. Whether it is the [employee rest area] that may appear, or the [monkey brain] and [monkey blood], there are obviously problems."
"As for the merchant, the merchant in blue should have some kind of exchange function. Then we can try to exchange some things with him, but the merchant in black... Since he is a merchant, his function should also be trading, but the black merchant is likely to It has something to do with the black heart. The risks of trading with him are greater than the rewards, so it’s better not to take risks.”
"The guardian beast of the last labyrinth, the Sphinx, may be a huge risk for us, but it may also be a huge opportunity. After all, if we only need to answer three of his questions correctly, we can get his help. I even doubt it. This is the most critical part of clearing the maze. The only thing you don’t know is what questions this guy will ask. If you don’t answer them, it will be dangerous.”
Having said this, Zhang Hao paused and then continued: "Finally, in addition to these things, there is a huge danger in the maze. This danger is the so-called monkey. You see, there are three rules among the seven rules. It’s got something to do with monkeys, and whatever these monkeys are, they are absolutely dangerous!”
"There's one thing I'm curious about..."
Hearing Zhang Hao's words, Huang Daoheng on the side suddenly added: "Look at the fourth rule. If there is a passage leading to the employee rest area in the rest area, you must leave as soon as possible. But other than that, there are no other rules. Mentioning that there are so-called [employees] in this maze, then how come there is an employee rest area? Or where did those employees go?"
"This thing looks familiar to me..."
At this moment, Ye Wenhui frowned and said, "I remember that there was a topic called [Zoo Monster Talk Rules] that was very popular in our place for a while, and some of the rules were similar to this."
"I even studied it for a while just to keep up with the popularity."
"If it is as I think, the rules here are similar to the [Zoo Monster Rules], then I may know where those so-called employees have gone!"
Speaking of this, Ye Wenhui said solemnly: "Since there is an employee rest area, there must have been employees in this maze, but those employees are now either dead or have turned into something else, such as... monkey!"
"We assume that there is some kind of terrible curse in this maze. Once someone is infected by this curse, they will turn into something else. According to the seven rules, we can boldly assume that they will turn into monkeys."
"And the way to be infected with the curse is actually a metaphor in the rules."
"Don't buy monkey brains and monkey blood, don't interact with monkeys, and don't talk to them."
"That is to say, this curse is most likely similar to some kind of [memetic weapon]!"
"The so-called memetic weapons are weapons that will suffer corresponding consequences as long as they come into contact with them or violate certain rules. For example, in our famous horror film "The Ring", anyone who has seen the cursed video tape in it will All people will be hunted by evil spirits, which is actually a memetic weapon, and the memetic medium is the videotape.”
"Also, in "The Grudge", anyone who enters Kayako's haunted house will be hunted down. That is also a meme, and the carrier of the meme is that haunted house."
"As for the curse in this maze, the meme is monkeys - as long as we come into contact with monkeys, communicate with them, or even be contaminated with their blood or brains, or eat these things, we will also be cursed Infected and turned into a monkey!"
"And this may be the biggest danger in the entire park!"
Ye Wenhui is indeed a UP master who specializes in this area. He can roughly deduce the general situation of the park based on just a few rules!
And hearing Ye Wenhui's words, everyone present shuddered!
No wonder the strong man in the magic tower was faced with so many dangers in this maze. They were likely to survive a narrow escape or even a tenth of death when they entered, so they were recommended to go to the temple. If Ye Wenhui's inference is true, then to a certain extent, this maze is indeed more dangerous than the temple with the evil god Cthulhu!
So if that's the case, will they enter this maze or not?
ps: Here comes the first update, hmm, keep coding, let’s continue to explode today!
