Chapter 507: First in Darkness, Then in Light
The labyrinth barrier still exudes unique supernatural power, making every living person inside unable to feel the number and direction.
But all the remaining living people know that now is the final moment.
In Ji Li's five timelines, during the four-on-one confrontation, a figure slowly walked out of the depths of a passage.
The man was wearing a loose yellow robe, and he walked lightly and a little comically.
The thin and slender face like a knife is full of vicissitudes caused by the price of sin, but the eyes are particularly bright in the messy hair in the wind.
The last Huang Banxian became the seventh living person here and finally arrived.
Five Ji Li, one Clyde, and one Huang Banxian were all present.
Huang Banxian was behind the seriously injured Ji Li. He just walked into the field but did not move forward. He nodded slightly towards Clay and said nothing.
The situation is now clear.
The five Ji Li controlled nine out of ten areas of the space map, Huang Banxian only had seven areas, and by calculation, Clyde should have only a dozen areas.
Huang Banxian and Clyde were only participants in the final fusion.
The decision-making power of the matter will be left to the five Ji Li present.
The silent wind echoed in this small area, and the bloody smell was slowly spreading among the piles of corpses.
Everyone's attention was focused on those Ji Li, but the moment Huang Banxian entered this place, a trace of suspicion suddenly flashed between his eyebrows.
The fingers hidden in the cuffs were performing mysterious mental calculations, and a strange calculation result emerged in his mind.
He slowly narrowed his eyes, looking at the side of the mountain of corpses without leaving any trace, and finally fell silent.
The seriously injured Ji Li also cooled down his emotions in the long silence, and his eyes swept over the figures in front of him one by one.
Ji Li at four o'clock had obviously reached an agreement with the other three, including Clyde, who should also stand with him.
Under this situation, he had no room for refusal, so he replied:
"tell me the story."
At four o'clock, Ji Li took a step forward, but stretched out his hand to draw everyone's attention to the cold-faced Clyde:
"The inspiration for this plan came from Clyde, so it would be more fair for him to say it."
To a certain extent, Clyde is the smartest among the ten branches, because once he uses the square mirror, he can have insight and thinking that far exceeds that of humans.
Ji Li was able to figure out the nature of the maze because it took a long time to enter.
But seeing through everything in just a few hours shows Clyde's resourcefulness.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Clay still stood expressionless and explained coldly:
“The axis of time and the axis of space are intertwined to form a maze.
Every living person on the timeline is a spatial coordinate, so killing becomes a method to integrate the maze.
But I always think this method is not the optimal solution, because it will lead to an inevitable dead end. "
When Clay said this, he deliberately aimed his gaze at the five Ji Li.
His meaning is obvious. In the final area, there will inevitably be living people from multiple timelines killing each other.
The consequences of such an ending will only be divided into two types:
The first type: The living people in these timelines will eventually decide the winner, leaving only one.
The second type: all living people died in internal fighting.
Ji Li, who was seriously injured, looked at him with squinted eyes and asked in a particularly calm tone:
"Only the real three people, you, Huang Fengjiao and me, are left for the final integration.
Once you get the guilty object space map, you can find out the truth.
The execution is subtle enough and there are no dead ends. "
Clyde didn't respond at all to his question and simply continued his analysis:
"What you think is not wrong, everyone else's ideas are right.
This maze is wrong, because I found a bug in this maze.
This BUG will not be noticeable in the early and mid-term, until there are fewer and fewer people, it will become a fatal trap. "
"What?" Ji Li, who was seriously injured, asked.
"The first ghost in the maze."
Clay spoke neither too slowly nor too quickly, and gave a relative explanation without waiting for any inquiries from the others.
"There are no ghosts in the maze. This is a conclusion reached through the sacrifice of countless of us.
The first ghost appeared when he was himself in a certain timeline. He couldn't bear the torture and turned into a ghost on the verge of death.
But you, me, and Huang Fengjiao here are all senior clerks, and it is impossible for us to do such a low-level and crazy behavior.
Then, a BUG appeared.
Where did the first ghost come from, who was it, and where is it now? "
Ji Li, who was seriously injured, stopped talking. He wandered for too long and was addicted to killing.
Clyde's theory shook his originally firm views.
The three people present, even their selves in other timelines, would not act like a ghost.
Especially Ji Li himself will never turn into a ghost.
"Thinking about it from another angle, have you really been able to confirm the conclusion that the first ghost in the maze was caused by a living person?"
Clay is very calm, and every step he takes in his current state is calculated carefully.
He killed ten of himself, but the purpose of killing was to prove this bug.
The answer is that there is no reason for anyone to turn into a ghost before death.
It is even more impossible for Ji Li and Huang Banxian to use themselves to save others.
Ji Li, who was seriously injured, looked gloomy, raised his eyes slightly, and asked softly:
"The dead end is that the first ghost is not a living ghost, and this theory is probably spread by it.
When we think that all ghosts have disappeared with the space, and then we start fighting among ourselves.
It will come out again and catch us all in one fell swoop."
"That's right." Clay nodded lightly.
"You are the one who came up with the plan." The seriously injured Ji Li looked at the rational and intelligent Clay, "How should we do it?"
The Ji Li at 4 o'clock and the other three Ji Li took a step forward and said in unison:
"Integrate the space map now!"
"To deceive people and split the group, it is nothing more than that ghost is not strong enough or cannot kill all of us in an instant.
Integrate the space map in advance and force the ghost to show up."
Clay said this without any emotion. This is the last and only step of the plan.
If the ghost is forced out of the dark, as long as it does not kill everyone, it will be enough to complete the space map and find a way out.
But the price of doing so is that the five Ji Li present will inevitably be reduced in number.
The other four had obviously made up their minds and were only waiting for the seriously injured Ji Li.
The seriously injured Ji Li fell silent. Clyde was indeed calmer than everyone else, and the plan he proposed was fair enough.
As time passed, his already somewhat shaken heart gradually began to lean towards this plan.
This plan was destined to succeed, but whether the Ji Lis in the other timelines could still exist if they took the path of survival was equivalent to leaving it to fate.
A trace of struggle flashed in the eyes of the seriously injured Ji Li, but he finally nodded and walked forward slowly.
The Ji Li at 3:10 looked at him moving forward and comforted him softly:
"In fact, even if we kill the real Ji Li, whether he can still exist when we return to the real world is still unknown.
Let's leave it to fate and deal with the ghost first."
The four Ji Lis and Clyde have formed a circle, leaving a vacancy in one corner.
The eyes of several people looked at the back at the same time, as if asking him why he hadn't come yet.
Huang Banxian, who had never felt involved, had heard enough. In this plan, he was just a spectator.
However, as he watched, he suddenly laughed, with a hint of sarcasm in his laughter.
"The story of the first ghost is very interesting. If it is true, where is the best place to hide it?"
Before he finished speaking, the seriously injured Ji Li suddenly shook his sleeves, raised his hand and aimed at the chest of each Ji Li, and fired four shots.
