Chapter 213
Tang Mo took a large piece of white paper from his backpack. He used a pen to mark an asterisk in the upper right corner and drew a straight line below it. “Assuming that the route we just took is roughly 1:50000, I can roughly draw it. I can remember around five minutes. What about you?”
Fu Wenduo took over the pen and paper and continued the route drawn by Tang Mo. “I can remember another five minutes.”
A labyrinth was something that ordinary people couldn’t find their way in. However, it was different for Tang Mo and especially Fu Wenduo, who was a person who often had missions in various spaces. All labyrinths were just overlapping angles and lines to them.
By knowing the angle of every corner they took and remembering the distance they travelled, they could estimate the route they took and draw it.
Fu Wenduo finished drawing and they looked down at the white paper.
Tang Mo said, “We haven’t gone back. According to common sense, we should be moving away from the centre of the maze and approaching the exit.”
Fu Wenduo took a look at this image. “Every maze has a feature. Closer to the centre, there will be more corners and the corridors will be shorter. It is because the centre of the circle radiates and the outward length is larger. Thus, we are really far from the centre of the maze.”
This made Tang Mo even more confused. “Then we are really going to the exist.”
Fu Wenduo kept staring at the image before he looked up. “Is the exist of the labyrinth on the outskirts?”
Tang Mo froze. “You mean…”
Fu Wenduo suggested, “What if the exit is in the middle?
The sound of the water from becoming louder. In the beginning, it was almost inaudible and now it lingered in the ears of very player and black tower boss.
Once Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo understood their position and situation, the two of them didn’t waste time. They picked up the box and turned to go back. Halfway through this, Tang Mo pulled Fu Wenduo to a stop and FU Wenduo glanced at him.
Tang Mo wondered, “The labyrinth’s exit is at the centre but there are more boxes further to the outskirts. If players want to find the exist, it is very difficult for them to get these boxes. Then what is the purpose of these boxes?” He looked up at Fu Wenduo.
They didn’t know why but Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo felt this situation was somewhat familiar.
The exit was at the centre of the map and all players were gathered at the centre. However, the props were like radiating stars. The closer it was to the outside of the circle, the more there were. Combined with the number of players, it would be difficult to grab a box close to the centre. Tang Mo seemed to have seen this type of game before…
Suddenly the two people looked at each other with surprise and the popular name for several games appeared in their minds.
“…Eat chicken?!” (TL: seemed to arise from PUBG)
On the other side, the baby-faced youth struggled to run forward while a wolf in a pink dress was behind him. The distance maintained between the person and the wolf was too clever. Grandmother Wolf’s speed might be the slowest among the first-class black tower bosses but her slow speed was Bai Ruoyao’s limit.
Bai Ruoyao tried to escape and couldn’t be caught by Grandmother Wolf, but at the same time, he suddenly hoped that Grandmother Wolf could run faster and simply grab him.
If this person was faster than she wouldn’t give him hope and he wouldn’t need to run for half an hour!
The consumption of physical strength was inevitable. Bai Ruoyao’s speed was gradually decreasing while Grandmother Wolf wasn’t affected.
