Chapter 859 The game starts
"Oh oh oh!"
"Ronald, what does this feel like? It's so interesting!" "
Also, where are we going now? I heard this prompt is for us to escape from the Arctic continent. ?"
"Is it still feasible to go back the same way?"
After the ability of "Maze Picture Book" was unfolded, everything that happened in front of her eyes immediately made Nicole very excited.
At this moment, the originally dark underground cave around her turned into a bright scene like a cute oil painting. After discovering that her body also became like a picture book character, the investigator girl even jumped up with excitement.
Even though her current appearance has changed into a cartoon style, you can still see the eagerness to try.
"Hurry up, teach me how to do it!"
"..."
However, next to Nicole, Ronald's face didn't look very good.
Because he realized he had made a mistake.
Since when he activated "Maze Book" just now, he focused all his energy on the length of the seal, there was one detail that Ronald missed in this maze chasing game.
The ultimate reward of the game.
Naturally, the losing party was sealed here for a hundred years.
But Ronald forgot to modify the additional conditions after the victory of both the pursuer and the escapee.
So now as fugitives, if they successfully escape from the Arctic continent before being caught up by the dust monster Baichuan, they will not be teleported back to the location where the game started, but will stay at the location where they arrived in the maze.
So the game is won by then.
Ronald also wants to return to the Arctic continent specifically to find the expedition team that is still heading towards the North Pole.
"..."
"Huh -"
"Nicole, calm down, we should go."
Ronald took a deep breath, quickly collected his emotions, and at the same time soothed Nicole's emotions, his eyes at the moment were also A quick scan around the area.
Under the interference of the original ability of "Maze Picture Book".
The surrounding environment has naturally become as bright and colorful as a cartoon world. In front of Ronald and Nicole, a staircase spiraled up along the crack, leading to the position where they came down.
below.
Since the dust giant Baichuan was still in a deep sleep state when it was involved in the spell, as the chaser of this maze game, it was not directly responsible for the pursuit.
Instead, on the surface of this dust giant, some milky white bubbles are seeping out from the white lake and gradually converging with the surroundings.
Ronald and Nicole's subsequent escape.
It should be done with the objects after they are assembled with these white substances. As for what the other party is brewing at this moment, it is also an advantageous period for Ronald and Nicole to escape in advance.
"Go up these steps."
"Let's talk about other things as we go up!"
After giving a simple instruction, Ronald naturally followed the path upwards and left.
But behind him, Nicole was still lingering a little because of these interesting scenes.
"Ronald!"
"I really can't use my spells. It seems that all my abilities have been completely locked!"
At this time... there must be no delay.
Seeing that the investigator girl was still excited about this, Ronald directly went up and grabbed the other person's right hand, pulled Nicole with a force that could not be refused, and ran directly up the road.
"My little ancestor, don't waste time at this moment!"
"..."
The two of them just dragged themselves up.
Because it is a cartoon-style world, when Ronald grabbed hold of her, the cute little person Nicole transformed into was dragged upwards like a rag doll.
As the two acted like this, some twisting and twisting lines even appeared around them, symbolizing the dust stirred up when they moved quickly.
And in this state.
Nicole, who was swaying, didn't forget to continue asking:
"Ronald, ordinary law can't do this kind of thing!"
"So is this a complete art? Have you completely mastered this original book?"
Ronald Finally, he couldn't help but look back, and tried to wink at Nicole in a vicious way.
"Nicole, do you want to be sealed here for a hundred years?"
"If we really fail the game, I can't guarantee that I can rescue you!"
Nicole then gave up and winked, letting her Doudouyan switched back and forth between horizontal and vertical lines:
"Okay, okay, I understand~~"
"..."
The maze in the first stage meandered over diagonal cracks.
Even though Ronald's vision was good, as they continued to move upward, they still encountered rolling stones and a delay mechanism that suddenly appeared.
No one knew when, but rocks popped out of nowhere and hit the two of them.
If you are directly pushed into the abyss or knocked down by this kind of mechanism...
then hitting Baichuan's body, or being easily caught up by subsequent pursuers, will naturally be the inevitable outcome.
Ronald also understands this dangerous situation.
Because he set the sealing time for one hundred years, this maze was naturally quite unfriendly to the two escapees, and it was expected that they would encounter such obstacles on the way.
Fortunately, both Ronald and Nicole are very smart.
After several near misses, they finally followed the steps to the top of the cave.
Also because of the transformation of the painting style of "Maze Picture Book".
The underground cave that Nicole had previously made a mess of was now transformed into a special area like a secret base, with large and small spiral mounds scattered everywhere, making it another paradise full of fun.
At the first moment, Ronald naturally began to observe the surrounding environment and decide the path forward.
And Nicole was walking with her thick legs.
Standing next to the crack, she squeezed her eyes and looked down:
"Ronald, they should be able to condense into shape in about five minutes. We have to prepare for the pursuit."
Just watching the process of the other party's body condensing, Ni A very accurate prediction can be made of the automatic predatory individuals secreted by Shirakawa below, which fully reflects Nicole's professionalism as an investigator.
But after this very professional assessment...
the cartoon-style investigator girl immediately shifted her attention to another aspect.
She walked up behind Ronald in two steps. Looking at Ronald, who had a serious face, but also became cute because of his cartoon appearance, Nicole immediately stuck to Ronald's back like a piece of rubber, and then touched him He tried it out:
"Speaking of which, Ronald, why did you set the time to one hundred years?" "Is
this the limit of this spell, or do you have other considerations." "
This is based on reality. Decision made." Ronald didn't care at all about Nicole's research on his body. His eyes stayed on the surrounding cave structure like a donut, and he didn't even look back to see what Nicole was thinking, "One hundred Years can already bring us so much trouble. If it is set longer, I'm afraid we will be trapped in a cocoon." After briefly
answering Nicole's question, Ronald also responded within a short period of time. Re-plan the route.
Then, he continued to pull the investigator girl behind him.
In a real physical sense, he ran outside in a flash.
[Happy New Year’s Day to everyone~! 】
