Atoris's eyes fell on Gawain behind her, but she saw him frowning and squatting on the ground to observe the blue formation.

"Liz, don't leave this magic circle. If you do, you won't be able to come back!" Mu's voice came. After hearing this, Artolis swallowed and quickly took back her half-raised foot.

"Why do you say that?" Atoris asked in confusion as she stood on the edge of the formation. Could it be that this six-pointed star formation is a protective formation? Will you be attacked by mysterious forces after leaving the magic circle?

Facing Atoris's words, Gawain suddenly stood up and said: "If my calculations are correct, the rules of space here have actually been completely disrupted. The distance and position between spaces here can no longer be determined by common sense. Judgment.”

"What... does this mean? Can you explain it more simply?" Artolis was confused and obviously didn't understand.

"Let you take a look!" Gawain said, placing the space magic stones on the six corners of the array. As the last magic stone was put down, it was one meter in front of Artolis. A six-pointed star array of the same color lit up everywhere.

"Sure enough!" Gawain touched his chin and then said: "The formation diagram in front of you is the place we need to reach. We should only need to stand on it to pass."

"Huh? That's it?" Looking at the formation diagram in front of her, Artolis's eyes widened. Isn't this just two steps away?

"If it really takes two steps to get there, then it's really a joke." Gawain said with a bitter smile. As he said this, under the watchful eyes of Atoris, Gawain came to Atoris's side.

"Watch it!" As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain extended his hand out of the magic circle. Under Artolis's surprised gaze, the part of Gawain's arm that stuck out of the magic circle disappeared, and appeared in front of him. Mi Chu appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this scene, Artoris was shocked and speechless. Gawain took his hand back, and without any accident, he returned to the magic circle with a complete arm.

At this time Mu explained: "It is a discontinuity in space. Even though the end point is right in front of you, in this space, you may be a hundred meters away with one step, or you may be running for a long time and still be there. In the original place. All kinds of chaotic space rules are intertwined, forming a huge space maze."

"So you know what trouble I'm talking about!" Gawain spread his hands and sighed.

"Then what should we do?" Artolis asked anxiously. Is it possible that the two of them are going to be trapped here? No, they should be sent out after the evaluation is over. But...in that case, wouldn't it mean that Gawain failed the test?

"Remember what I said? Just listen to me, even a fool can do it." At this time, Gawain said calmly.

Artoris raised her eyebrows upon hearing this, and from Gawain's tone, it didn't sound like she was sighing helplessly and waiting for failure.

"So you have an idea?"

"Remember this is an evaluation, what's the point of getting something that you can't pass? It's not that there is nothing you can do, it's just a little troublesome." After saying that, Gawain returned to the center of the array, squatted down and started to take out another piece. The dark red magic stone began to be carved.

"Fortunately, the two are the same type of magic circle, so we only need to construct another pursuit magic circle... Well, remember what the center of the magic circle on the other side looks like, right?"

"The three-pole flower, the wheel of kingship on the Shield of David..."

Atoris was stunned for a moment when she heard Gawain's words, but after hearing Mu's voice, Atoris realized that she was not the one he was asking about.

Also, my understanding of rune formations is limited to simple pictures and texts, and I have no idea of ​​its connotation. Mu Qianqian and Gawain are of the same mind, and it is normal for them to know the knowledge of runes.

So it’s nothing to do with you?

Gawain and Mu didn't work for long, and quickly drew a new formation diagram. The array diagram was complicated and small, but it only occupied the middle ring of the six-pointed star. However, the moment Gawain stopped his hand, both the starting lattice and the final lattice lit up with a green light.

"The first step is done!" Gawain stood up and clapped his hands.

Artoris, who was wandering in her thoughts, came back to her senses and saw Gawain throwing something towards her. After reluctantly catching it, Gao Wen said: "I have now determined the straight-line path direction of the two magic circles. With this thing, I can determine the direction of the path as a straight-line path. It's just..."

"Just what?" The thing in his hand was a space magic stone. However, it was not dark red like ordinary space magic stones, but half of it was green. Looking at that half, the color is similar to that of the formation on the ground.

"It's just that every time you cross the barrier of the folded space, you have to draw a pointing array on the ground. In fact, this is where the trouble lies."

"Although it is a bit troublesome, at least there is a method. You guys have to be patient!" Mu said angrily.

Seeing the two people arguing again, Artolis covered her mouth and snickered. These two guys were always like this, quarreling when they disagreed, and Artolis was used to it. But it was just a few words of exchange, and the test had to go on.

In the following time, Artolis followed Gawain step by step. It was also the first time that she had the feeling of reaching a thousand meters in one step. Artolis had a great time playing in this chaotically folded space.

"Look Gawain, my hands are there and my feet can appear on the other side!"

"Okay, okay, got it!" Gawain was obviously a little impatient while drawing the formation diagram. By the way, how long is this path? Every time you cross space, the magic stone in your hand for positioning will lose its effectiveness. That's because the space restriction blocks the connection between the magic stone and the magic circle, so the magic circle can only be redrawn and repositioned.

An hour passed, and Artolis couldn't help but start to feel bored, and even Gawain started to feel bored. Atoris looked around and saw that hundreds of formations had been drawn. Gawain's movements were still fast enough and he could draw the formations in just a few dozen seconds. But even so, after walking for so long, there was still no need. Signs of the end.

The bored Artoris could only pass the time by counting stars, and when the two of them were in a low mood, a purple-gold formation suddenly appeared on the ground not far away. This scene naturally attracted the attention of the two people.

"Gawain! Look over there!"

"Looking at it!" Gawain stared at the formation diagram that appeared, and then he saw him holding the magic stone used for engraving in his hand, and then punched the half-finished formation diagram under him.

"This old scoundrel!"

"Huh?" What is that thing? Artoris doesn't know why. Why did Gawain burst out with such emotions? However, it seems that the formation is somewhat similar to the Wolf King's contract summoning formation.
