"Here?" Barong, who then passed through the mirror door, also showed surprise after looking around the surrounding environment.
"It seems to be a completely inverted mirror space different from the maze just now. I didn't expect that the other end of the door is not the exit. It seems that this is also a part of the maze design."
Listening to Baron's analysis, Artolis couldn't help but frowned: "But after we entered, the door disappeared again!"
"Is it only one-way traffic?" Looking back at the empty horizon, Baron touched his chin and then turned his attention to Artoris again.
"It looks like we still have to continue looking for an exit, so Artolis, what will you choose this time?"
"That...right...?" After thinking for a moment, Artolis raised her hand and pointed to the right.
"Okay, let's go to the right!"
"Eh?" After hearing this, Artolis staggered again.
"Didn't you say that you have to work in the opposite direction with me to find the right path?"
"So you firmly believe in what I said and think I will make the opposite choice with you." Baron said and took steps without looking back.
“The function of karma is the continuation of your independent will. It will make changes according to your expectations. The effective choice to avoid the backlash of karma is to avoid your judgment rather than doing the opposite. "
"Is that so?" Artoris was stunned for a moment, then saw that Baron had already stepped into the maze first, so she hurriedly followed him to avoid being separated from him.
"So, the smarter the person, the harder it is to avoid the backlash of karma?" Artoris asked, looking at Barong's back.
"It can be understood this way, but in fact it is a contradiction."
"How to say?"
"Smart people will think about how to resolve karma and take action instead of trying their best to deal with it."
"Uh... it seems quite reasonable." Well, even though she really wanted to refute this statement, at this point Artolis could only accept the fact that she was an idiot.
"There's no need to belittle oneself. It's just that thinking too much often makes you physically and mentally exhausted." Balong said, taking a deep breath: "After the trial is over, I will do my best to find ways to resolve your karma." It is a powerful method, and you only need to be aware of the present moment and look towards the future after liberation."
"Forgive me for not being able to compromise. After all, the problem is with me. Asking me to sit back and wait for death is absolutely unacceptable." Artolis did not give in on this matter. It was naturally good to rely on her companions, but if she could, she still wanted to rely on her own strength. Power moves from death to life.
After listening, Barong's tone gradually became serious: "In that case, let me ask you, Artolis, how do you plan to remove the karma you have accumulated? Before you let out the big words, at least let me understand what you have. What confidence?"
"This...not yet...but..."
"Then wait until you have the answer before answering my question. It's better to focus on the present." As if he didn't want the topic to continue, Baron interrupted Artolis.
On the other side, Artoris's mood changed quickly. When Baron finished speaking, she also noticed the strangeness around her.
The maze has changed again!
There seems to be a manipulator behind the maze, and he has seen through the two people's thoughts. The maze that has made changes will only change the path after the movement, so that the two people cannot go straight in the same direction.
The structure of the maze has gone far beyond the ordinary scope, and is gradually changing towards an unsolvable direction.
However, unlike Artoris, who was frowning, Barong smiled calmly.
"Sure enough, it's not my imagination."
As the words fell, the spear point in Barong's hand touched the ground. In an instant, the ripples surged slightly, and the cold wave swept away. The spreading coldness seemed to freeze in time, freezing the space for several miles in an instant.
"Give it to me, broken!"
Following Baron's roar, under Artoris's astonished gaze, the pieces of ice extending from her feet to the distance cracked, and then with loud cracking noises, thousands of ice blocks condensed into ice. The wall of water suddenly collapsed.
"Quick, Artolis, take advantage of the moment!"
Baron's call brought back the thoughts of Artolis who was surprised by the scene in front of her. After understanding the current situation, Artolis did not care to ask questions at the moment. When the water flowed out from the cracks in the ice, she regained her majesty. Before it was built into a high wall, he followed Barong's footsteps and quickly crossed the ruins of ice.
"How did you do this?" Looking at the mirror door in front of her and the walls of water gradually rising and recovering behind her, Artoris, who didn't know why, cast a surprised look at Baron.
"Although the maze here is artificially created, the seemingly countless changes are actually just making up for it. After we successfully solved the previous problem, we made changes to introduce new problems. This does not seem like a clever move. A contingency measure that the creator of the maze will make. It is more like using some kind of long-running intelligent magic circle, set to hinder the progress of explorers by updating the structure of the maze."
After hearing Baron's explanation, Artolis raised her eyebrows: "Are you saying that it is not the living that controls everything that makes this maze change, but the core mechanism that makes up the maze array?"
"That's why the design of this maze may not have been for later generations to explore, but only as a recreation and entertainment facility for the creator. Objects that the creator considers important enough that he does not want to be taken by later generations are protected here. That’s the real purpose of this maze!”
"Magic Wedge!" Artolis suddenly realized.
Was it because he was sure that the person behind the scenes was not a living person that Baron would do that?
"If the magic circle is really controlling all this, then as long as the amount of magic released at one time exceeds the critical value that the magic circle can bear, the opponent will need time to digest the excess magic power."
Is that why what happened just now? Thinking of this, Artolis' eyes returned to the mirror door in front of her.
I don’t know where this door leads. If it’s a mirror maze, where is the real exit?
"No need to guess. As you might imagine, there is no exit at the other end of the door."
"That……?"
"It's actually very simple, and only you can do it here." Baron said, taking a few steps back to make room for Atoris.
"Only I can do it..." After repeating Baron's words in a low voice, Artoris understood what he meant by looking at his actions.
It turns out that if the magic array has a self-healing mechanism for the maze, then destroying the structure of the maze will have no effect. At present, it seems that the Mirror Gate is the only "bridge" connecting the maze to the maze. If the Mirror Gate is destroyed directly...
"The magic power released just now was also a test. Judging from the results, the critical value of the magic power reserve of the magic circle is quite high. The maximum single output of my magic power is still far from enough to destroy the center of the maze."
"Then leave it to me."
In response to Baron's words, Artoris slowly raised the spirit sword. The second the five-color energy emerged from the sword, a dazzling glow erupted from her whole body.
"Chaos Blade!"
