Chapter 1105: Labyrinth

Chapter 1104: Labyrinth

Zhang Heng didn’t avoid the old man deliberately, opening the bag in front of him and taking out the Lego instead.

The thing he was trying to piece together this time wasn’t complicated, so it didn’t take long. Very quickly, he reached the final step and inserted the Infinite Building Block into it.

The next moment, a brand new drone appeared in his hand.

The drone took off under Zhang Heng’s control, and under the old man’s stunned gaze, he flew to the top of the maze. From there, he could clearly see the entire maze and see the changes in there. Zhang Heng silently calculated the time of each change, trying to plan a path from the middle to the center while factoring in his own speed into the maze.

UAVs had actually been around since the 1920s. Initially, they were primarily used for military purposes or scientific research and mapping missions. It wasn’t until about 10 years ago that they were opened up to the consumer market. In recent years, they finally became widespread and accepted by consumers.

The old man had arrived on the island more than 50 years ago, and the last person he had met was also 12 years ago. Furthermore, the two of them had only spoken a few words, so he had never seen a UAV before meeting Zhang Heng.

When he saw the drone rise from Zhang Heng’s hand and fly all the way to the top of the labyrinth, he thought he had just witnessed a supernatural phenomenon. After that, he noticed the image on the remote control in Zhang Heng’s hand. The expression on his face became even more shocked.

Previously, when Zhang Heng asked him if he could use tools, his understanding was still limited to things like ladders, and he didn’t pay too much attention to it. In fact, not to mention that Zhang Heng didn’t have a ladder, even if he had, he wouldn’t have been able to pass through the maze because the changes weren’t just the movement of the red mud walls. Even the ground beneath his feet moved slowly. In other words, even if you stood still, your position would change constantly.

This was also the reason why the old man wasn’t worried about Zhang Heng using tools.

However, the drone in front of him was clearly not what he had expected.

With this drone occupying the high ground, Zhang Heng would directly obtain a map of the maze. He would be able to observe the results of every change, and he would keep track of his position at all times. This also made it possible for him to reach the maze’s center without relying on his connection to Jemengard.

The old man subconsciously felt that this matter was inappropriate, but he was also at a loss. He didn’t know what to do now. Jemengard’s order was to welcome the potential believers to the island in front of the labyrinth. However, it didn’t give him the right to search the potential believers or seize any items.

Furthermore, the old man could tell from the scabbard and longbow on his back that this young man was unlike the others who had come to the island before. Even though he looked very polite, this did not mean that he would always be so polite. In fact, the old man could quickly usually tell the identity and occupation of every new visitor, but for Zhang Heng, from the first time he saw him, he was still unable to figure out who he was.

Hence, the old man did nothing in the end. He just stood by the side and allowed Zhang Heng to operate the drone to study the maze from high up in the sky.

Jemengard and his ushers were at a disadvantage because of their lack of culture. In fact, many of the tests and rituals of older gods were no longer suitable for modern society.

For example, when Jemengard built the labyrinth on this island, he did not expect humans to invent something like the drone one day. Of course, as time went by, some of the more open-minded gods would adjust themselves as the society progressed and developed. For example, Chronos, who Zhang Heng had met before, had even worn a tang suit to open up to the eastern market. Of course, the combination was a little out of place.

Or perhaps the self-proclaimed Einstein that Zhang Heng had met in the Apollo Dungeon was a god. The latter was born with modern technology, and his power grew with the development of science and technology. On the other hand, some ancient gods were gradually forgotten by mankind as technology progressed.

However, the situation of the Nightmare Gad was more special. Its name was not forgotten by the world. Zhang Heng could not even tell whether its power had become weaker or stronger than when it was at its peak. Because of the unprecedented development of entertainment and media, its popularity had increased more than in the past.

However, the problem with Jemengard was that in the original Norse mythology, it was a monster trapped in the deep sea. It did not really emerge until the twilight of the gods. Thus, it belonged to the type of autistic player who was relatively far away from human society in current terms.

Although it had not been forgotten to select believers from the humans over the years, there was nothing impressive about the speed and number of believers. After all, only 16 people had come to the island in 50 years, which was a little too shabby. It had also eaten three people. In the end, only three of its followers had left the island. It was hard to say how much its understanding of modern society had improved from such a small number of people. This led to the very retro construction of the maze.

About half an hour later, Zhang Heng put away the drone. He tried to simulate his move a few times and successfully reached the center of the labyrinth. The time it took varied, mainly due to the uncertainty of the labyrinth’s changes.

However, in general, the difficulty of the maze was greatly reduced with his field of vision opening.

After waiting for another ten minutes, Zhang Heng rereleased the drone, and he finally stepped into the maze himself.

Zhang Heng moved extremely swiftly. As soon as he entered the maze, he started running immediately. The main reason was that the maze would change every 90 seconds, so he needed to re-plan the route to the center.

Even for Zhang Heng, it would take time to plan the route. Through this, he would use even less time to move the time he could use to move, making every second between each change extremely precious to Zhang Heng.

With the drone as an eye, Zhang Heng’s initial movement was relatively smooth. Soon, he was less than half a distance away from the center of the maze. However, following that, the speed of the change in the maze actually increased, and the interval between the changes was shortened to only 60 seconds. This was a new situation that Zhang Heng had not encountered during the simulation test. It was also a challenge because he had less time to plan his route and move.

Fortunately, the situation was still under Zhang Heng’s control. Even if the time was reduced to 60 seconds, he was still moving toward the center of the maze. However, at this time, Zhang Heng did feel a sense of wariness rise in his heart because he was not sure if the time would change as he continued to move forward.
