Chapter 1372: When the invisible enemy
came down from the suspension bridge, Caslina showed a better physique than Ronald.
At this moment, she was climbing faster than Ronald.
While Ronald was still crawling forward with difficulty in the smoke and dust, Catalina, who was faster, had successfully reached the exit, escaped from the narrow space enclosed by tree trunks and corners, and stood on the ground again. superior.
Pa, pa, pa—
Katrina slapped her body hard, intending to shake off the dust on her body.
But maybe the crawl just now was too hard, so the traces left behind are difficult to clean.
"Forget it..."
Katarina quickly gave up this action and instead glanced around.
The tree that suddenly collapsed was not far away and could be seen easily. And close to the root of the tree, there is only a suddenly cut off section, with no details visible on it.
After all, they are trees transformed from "Maze Picture Book".
The location of the break only has a flat circular section, which cannot bring any useful clues except the growth rings.
Seeing that nothing happened around her, Catalina moved to the other side of the tree, squatted down and said with a smile:
"Ronald, do you want my help?"
"..."
"Cough cough cough -"
"Say As if you can find someone to drag me out!"
Ronald's coughing and responding sounds came from the dark tunnel one after another, and got closer and closer:
"Get out of the way, don't Stop me from coming out!"
Within a few words, Ronald crawled out from the corner between the alley and the trees. He quickly stood up and patted himself, and then saw the exact same scene as Catalina.
There was only a broken piece of wood that almost killed the two of them, and nothing else.
Catalina, who came out first, shrugged and told the truth:
"Don't look, you can't find any clues."
Ronald retorted:
"But if I say that the tree fell by itself, you will believe it. "?"
Then he continued to analyze the encounter:
"The guy who made the noise just now seems to have been following us and waiting for an opportunity. The tree that fell just now was obviously from the other party's malicious intent. This guy has now actually become a If we are going to be close to a similar place next time, we must pay more attention."
When analyzing the situation, Ronald was still walking back and forth to investigate, hoping to learn from the traces left on the scene. Find some clues.
But the final result still responded to Catalina's observation.
Except for the broken trees and the trees behind them that filled the entire alleyway, there are no extra traces here.
Under this situation, Ronald and Catalina had no choice but to continue on the road, after all, they were still in a hurry.
Then he walked out for two or three minutes.
Before they could face a choice again, there was another roar in the dilapidated city outside their field of vision.
"..."
Upon hearing the movement, Ronald and Catalina looked at each other.
This time, without any discussion, the two of them rushed towards the location where the sound came from, trying to figure out who the culprit was that was hindering their actions.
When they arrived at the location where the sound came from...
a collapsed house formed a ruins in front of them. This not only blocked the possibility of them passing through, but also demonstrated the power of the enemy who had not yet appeared. .
——There may be other explanations for the trees that collapsed just now.
——But this ability to destroy a house is definitely not something that the two people in "Maze Picture Book" can match.
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound appeared in the distance again.
Ronald and Catalina were not timid, but continued to track the past without stopping.
The results found this time were not much different from just now.
The same tree house collapsed and changed the layout of the entire street and road conditions.
Rumble--
at the same time, the sound started again.
Ronald and Catalina, who had run away twice in a row, did not rush back this time. Instead, they stopped and remained silent.
They all realized the special situation now.
And a few seconds later, Catalina spoke first, stating the core issue of the current situation:
"After the last failure, this guy gave up attacking the two of us." "
The essence of his current actions is actually changing the entire situation. The terrain planning of the maze completely ruined our previous aerial reconnaissance."
Ronald also added:
"And even if we can re-clarify the structure of the changed maze, he can and can use it again in the future. The same behavior will change the shape of the entire maze."
"Katerina, we are in big trouble."
Ronald couldn't help but cover his head.
If the opponent doesn't show up, he can't catch up with him, and he can't control the maze.
Then we face a maze whose internal structure changes all the time, which is difficult to break through under any circumstances.
What's more, the person who can cause such an impact also harbors ill intentions towards Ronald and the others!
Catalina asked Ronald in a serious tone:
"So what do you decide to do? Continue to seize the time..."
This time, before Catalina could finish her words, Ronald interrupted directly:
"Continue to solve the maze. It's meaningless!"
"With this guy who can change the terrain, no matter how hard we try to crack the maze, it will be in vain. Now the problem of getting out of here has changed from cracking the maze to how to deal with this guy." After hearing this
, Catalina was somewhat self-deprecating:
"Yes, we have to deal with this enemy. But we haven't even seen him yet, and we don't even know how many arms and heads this guy has!"
Catalina commented in one sentence. middle.
Regardless of the noise heard in the house before, it was the subsequent knocking down of trees and damage to the house. Even though his actions have proven everything, this enemy hiding in the dark has never revealed his true appearance.
In other words - Ronald and the two wanted to deal with this guy, but they had never even seen each other, let alone how to catch the enemy from the shadows!
Rumble -
At this time, another roar came from the street further away.
This guy who is constantly modifying the structure of the maze is obviously not satisfied with one or two changes. He keeps using his own actions to add new obstacles to the two of Ronald.
The situation has reached a complete deadlock.
But that's it.
Listening to the sound of houses and trees falling further and further away, Ronald's eyes suddenly lit up.
Then he didn't even have time to inform Catalina beside him.
His eyes quickly scanned the surroundings and immediately locked onto a towering tree house.
The next second, Ronald ran away and rushed towards the house.
At the same time, he shouted to the girl behind him:
"Hurry, Catalina, follow him quickly!"
Catalina raised her eyebrows and did not worry about Ronald's actions, but immediately followed the opponent's back, taking the time to do so. Asked:
"Ronald, what's wrong with you? Are you under too much pressure and want to vent?"
However, this time Ronald did not immediately explain, but just made a gesture to Catalina.
Catalina was a little surprised.
She watched Ronald's back running forward, as if this man was racing against time.
