Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 142: Gate of Advancement

When Thor woke up again, he found himself in a strange place.

At this moment, he seemed to be in an alleyway, but this kind of alleyway was not the dark and dangerous alleyway in the small town, nor was it the trapped-walled alleyway in the tomb.

Although this laneway is strictly speaking between the two walls, the road is very wide, and the huge walls on both sides are towering into the clouds. The thick walls give people an ancient and desolate taste, not like they will merge at any time. Filled with meat.

cloud? Yes, Saul looked up and saw misty dark clouds in the sky along the road. Today in the dark calendar of the continent of Salvinia, not only the sun and the moon, but also clouds disappear from the sky.

This was the first time Thor saw a cloud in his life, but the dark cloud did not completely obscure the sky, but was unevenly distributed over his head. The thick areas are impenetrable, and the thin areas have azure blue.

The blue should be the sky, it's so beautiful, but unfortunately I didn't see the sun.

Although there is no sun, there is light pouring down from the thin clouds. Those rays of light are visible to the naked eye, and the bundles of Dindal brilliance intersect or converge, creating a messy and ethereal beauty. Extending all the way, it seems like a dream.

In short, the field of vision is very comfortable, transparent and bright, and you can see far away when you look up. It reminded Sol of what he had read in those ancient books, a certain warm sun and light rain during the Guangli Period, maybe that was it.

In addition to the weird environment, Sol also found himself very weird.

At this moment he was sitting against the wall, and he could feel the coldness of leaning against his shoulders, but his posture was very similar to that of a drunk who had just woke up from a hangover. Moreover, he was naked, his clothes, weapons, and even the space magic ring seemed to have not been brought in.

Standing up, Saul touched his chest, felt the surging heartbeat, clenched his fist, and felt the spreading power.

Everything is normal, it's just that I am now looking bare butt, if I suddenly see a young girl in the laneway who is also frankly meeting, I don't know what a story will be.

So Sol began to walk, choosing a random direction from this place that was neither like the beginning nor the end.

After walking for a while, although Thor had never seen a similar scenery in his life and couldn't know where it was, he still had his own judgment. This may be in a secret realm, and it is likely to be a large maze.

Saul continued to walk, and there was always a fork in the front, but he just kept moving forward.

Three days later, Sol was still walking.

It's just that the so-called "three days" is just a rough estimate of Sol. There is no reference, no reliable changes, and even the passage of time has become blurred.

In the past three days, he hadn't met any enemies, didn't feel hunger or thirsty, didn't feel tired, didn't sleep, didn't even urinate, and naturally he never stopped.

But in Saul's heart, a fear gradually arose.

Because he roughly guessed what the so-called fog of promotion is all about.

He has been moving forward for the past three days and has never changed, so he came to two conclusions.

First, the entire maze does not have a dead end in the ordinary sense, that is, when you go in and walk to the end, you will find that the front and the left are the dead ends where the wall can only turn back.

Although occasionally you may encounter an oncoming horizontal wall to force you to turn, but you can't turn very far and you can find the forward vertical fork, so for these three days Thor knows that he is walking roughly in a straight line.

But there is no dead end, which is very troublesome.

Because in the maze if you don't have any auxiliary tools, but if you are smart enough, you can try to draw a map in your mind. And every time you find a dead end, you can remove it from the map in your mind, and finally use the elimination method to find the last correct path.

There is no dead end, so Sol directly gave up the idea of ​​drawing a map in his mind.

And with the passage of time for these three days, Thor has been moving forward, walking straight, and you can imagine how large the unexplored area will extend.

If you want to draw the entire maze, even if you really have a strong memory, Saul estimates that his head will eventually explode.

The second judgment is based on the first one. Sol suspects that this is a maze without boundaries, meaning that you may still be on the road until the day you die.

Of course, this is just a guess, maybe you persisted forward and finally touched the side wall of the maze after one month and one year. But Sol will not spend uncertain time verifying this test, at least not for the time being.

Conversely, there can be a guess. Thor suspects that he may be in a loop, the kind of never ending.

You keep moving forward, thinking that you have walked from one to two, and from two to three. In fact, only one to two is a real journey, but two to three are illusory repetitions.

You think that you have reached the third, but you are actually back to the one, and then the similarity of the environment and the visual deception continue to blur your judgment, making you think that you are always moving forward, from one to three, but in fact, you will always be there. No more than three.

This kind of maze is terrible, there are no rules, no way to be sure, you can only break through with luck.

The fear in Thor's heart does not come from the maze itself, but from time. To ask what is the most powerful in this world, Thor will always only have time as an answer.

From a biological perspective, even if the life spans of various species are different, they will eventually fall into the torrent of time. In other words, no matter how powerful people are, they will eventually be old, decayed, run over by the wheel of time, and cannot escape.

As for those legends that are immortal, they are just legends to Thor. He lives for ten thousand years, you live for a hundred years, he is immortal to you, because you can't see the day when he decays.

Saul thinks that this maze may be created by his own consciousness, and this maze takes the invisible fear brought by time to the extreme. There is no enemy here, there is no danger, you can walk leisurely, run wildly, but you can only walk.

And why so many people didn't wake up after being promoted. Strictly speaking, they weren't dead. They were just trapped in the labyrinth of their own consciousness and couldn't get out. Some people may even walk for more than ten years and may still be moving today.

There must be some tough guys with a steel will among them, but they are useless in Thor's eyes.

As time goes by, when the passion is burned, when the will is consumed, they will eventually fall.

Maybe you will recall the real world from time to time at first, and you want to get back to the one you love, but as you go on year after year, the memory becomes pale because of repeated chewing. You will eventually be unable to piece together the appearance of the person you love, or even forget who you love, and finally why you are leaving.

The ending is nothing more than madness and self-ending.

Sol looked at the hard walls around him. It seemed that he just had to hit him if he wanted to end himself, but he couldn't verify it. I don't know if there is such a saying as death in this maze, after all, there is no hunger or fatigue here.

Nine days later, Thor was still walking, trying to spot any slight differences or specials. He firmly believes that the exit of the maze is not at the boundary, but should be in a certain part of the maze, waiting for himself like a point.

Then, he entered an alleyway. At the moment, there was a wall in front of the left, and he could only turn right. There was a left fork on the road turning right and going straight. He didn't care, just staring nervously at the horizontal wall at the end of the road.

Walking to the horizontal wall with his eyes closed, Saul opened his eyes slightly and looked nervously to the right, then laughed.

He knew he had found it, a forked road to the right.

If you step on this road, it will form a turn with the direction he entered before, which is equivalent to walking backwards. Since Sol entered the maze, all the walls had only three forward directions, left, front and right, but never made people walk backward.

Turning right again and walking to the end, another right turn appeared in front of the horizontal wall. After three right turns, Thor was 80% sure.

He knew that he had entered a part of a maze that was shrinking in layers in a square vortex, entered from the edge, kept turning right, and eventually reached the center of the entire square.

Although he didn't know what was there, Sol believed that the exit was there.

Sure enough, after passing through countless diminishing squares, Thor turned the last corner and saw an ancient gate. And on a stone platform with a square-bottomed cylinder in front of the gate, a blood-red demon soul is swaying.

After Saul reached out his hand to absorb the devil soul, the door in front of him burst open, and the darkness was filled with darkness.

——————

Rianna will come to Thor these days.

At first, she just came and took a look from time to time. On the fifth day, Reanna suddenly discovered something interesting. Facing Saul, who was lying there like a wood, imagining his usual arrogance, Ryanna took out her paintbrush.

Painting has always been one of Ruianna's hobbies, and she herself has a strong background in painting.

After bowing her head and busy, after looking at the newly appeared blood-sucking fangs and one-eyed blindfold on Sol's face, Reanna stretched out. Phew~ I feel the pressure on my body has disappeared, and it seems that even my soul has been healed.

Today is the ninth day of Sol's sleep.

After Ryanna finished her family affairs, she rushed over with her skirt and painting tools. After driving away the curious old Keane, Ryanna sat down by Sol's bed and started her own creation again.

At this moment, Saul was walking into the dark gate, and then he suddenly felt itchy on his face, like a small bug crawling again. What is this? Are there any sequelae of advancement?

He wanted to raise his hand and scratch it, but he couldn't feel his hand for a while.

Suddenly opening his eyes, Saul saw Rianna approaching her whole body, with a faint and silly smile on her mouth, holding her face and having fun.

She fixed her chin with one hand, and swayed the brush with the other hand, flying sand and rocks on her cheek. She was obviously very engaged, and she didn't even notice when she woke up.

Saul instantly smiled in her heart. You don't need to guess that he knew that she must have used a paintbrush to paint some child tricks such as cat whiskers and frog faces on her face while she was in a coma.

And Saul can see from the strength and posture of her writing that she didn't hesitate or uncomfortable at all when she started writing, which was obviously... already a habitual offender.

Well, it seems that someone went to heaven when he was away.
