Chapter 849 Maze Mother
After Li Yi's brief explanation, the anxious atmosphere was relieved by most of it.
But Shao Yongan scratched his head and asked in a low voice:
"But didn't we say before that there are no concrete ghosts in this mission?"
Li Yi didn't bother to answer this question. He just took a few steps forward and stood at the corner to observe.
Chen Jie gave a corresponding explanation:
"You can understand that there is no root ghost in this mission, only the root rule - the calendar.
The calendar is a concrete manifestation of the rules, and Nong Yueke's family is the medium that connects the rules.
We live within the rules and try to wrest control of them.
So in order to ensure the integrity of the mission, there must be an opposite party to stop it.
The opposite party can be called a ‘ghost’. "
Through this concise and concise explanation, a complete task framework was established in Shao Yongan's brain.
In fact, this mission is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple.
Because the way to survive has long been clearly laid out in front of us.
The real problem is how to collect eight digital cards while ensuring survival without being snatched away by ghosts.
Li Yi's arrival seemed to be a reassurance for everyone.
Li Yi is at the front, Shao Yong is second, Wen He is third, Guo Liang is fourth with Xu Nan on his back, and Chen Jie is at the back of the team.
"Wen He, when was the last time you saw Wen Yongxin and where was it?"
Li Yi asked such a question before setting off.
But Wen He was not a store clerk after all, so the answer she gave was very general and she could only circle an area.
After Shao Yongan recorded it, he marked it on the wall.
A group of six people began to gradually enter the maze.
Maze-type events are actually not uncommon in missions. They are often small-scale events and the basic difficulty is not high.
However, if there is a huge and complex arrangement, it will cause a huge psychological burden to those who go deep into it.
After all, no matter how powerful the clerk is, he is still an ordinary person.
They will be affected to some extent by their vision and environment, which will lead to emotional problems and eventually they will die.
Li Yi moved forward from the entrance, constantly moving through the intricate passages.
Shao Yongan drew the route he traveled in his notebook for recording.
While recording, he followed Li Yi's steps and thought to himself:
"It seems that Store Manager Li is also in the exploratory stage. He wants to use the in-depth method, which is also the most basic cracking method."
The maze depth method is to go as deep as possible and mark the forks and turns to ensure that you don’t walk the same path a second time.
This is a relatively basic method, but it is also the method with the highest success rate.
Time passes minute by minute.
The most difficult thing about maze-type events is that it greatly consumes the mental and physical strength of those who go deep into it.
This is a very long and arduous journey.
It took about two hours of swimming.
Not to mention that Guo Liang, who was carrying Xu Nan on his back, was already sweating profusely. Even Shao Yongan, who was recording, already felt exhausted.
The route drawn in the notebook also used up three entire pieces of paper.
The huge amount of information and confusing intersections all make Shao Yongan, an "old fritter", feel powerless.
Looking at the various lines on the paper, he began to feel dizzy.
Although all routes were recorded by him, he could not tell where they were at this moment.
At this time, he couldn't help but look up at the back figure in front of him.
Li Yi still maintained a calm and gentle attitude, and kept going back and forth in the maze with a firm sense of direction.
And can tell with extreme accuracy where a new route is.
Shao Yongan felt helpless, and the gap between people was evident.
In this maze, if it weren't for Li Yi's participation, I'm afraid they would have become the walking dead trapped in it.
At this time, a straight passage appeared in front of the six people, which was ten steps long.
This discovery cheered up Shao Yongan. Generally speaking, if such a straight line appears, it is likely to be near the exit.
Everyone's pace couldn't help but speed up and move forward.
But when they turned along the left side, Shao Yongan's expression suddenly changed.
On the wall in front of him, there is clearly an "X" sign painted with spray paint.
After Shao Yongan saw this mark, he gave up all his strength and collapsed to the ground.
"This...is impossible..."
Chen Jie leaned against the wall and gasped, frowning and whispered:
"This is Wen Yongxin's location marked at the entrance before we set off..."
This discovery meant that they were back where they started after a long search.
But Li Yi's face showed no surprise at all. Instead, he lowered his head and glanced at his watch and said softly:
"It took us 2 hours and 37 minutes to walk through the entire maze and back to the starting point."
Two hours and thirty-seven minutes, but it was a waste of time.
Shao Yongan licked his chapped lips, looked at Li Yi blankly and asked:
"Manager Li, I'm sure we have never turned back. Why is this happening?"
"Could this maze be dead?"
The first thought that came to Guo Liang's mind was this.
This is also the most likely scenario.
However, Li Yi directly gave another answer:
"On the contrary, the maze is alive, it's constantly moving."
The truth is far more shocking than the speculation.
Shao Yongan looked at him with his mouth wide open, trembled and quickly looked down at the route map.
After a while, he rubbed his temples painfully and whispered:
"If you are right, it means there is no possibility of escaping from this maze.
The escape route will change over time, which will split into infinite possibilities. It is impossible for the human brain to calculate such a huge amount of information! "
But at this time, Chen Jie suddenly stood up and said:
"not necessarily!"
She stepped forward, took three pieces of notebook paper in her hand, examined them carefully and said:
“The escape route will deform.
But behind the transformation, it means that there is a parent.
All changes are tampered based on this mother copy, so as long as we find the mother copy, we can make deductions.
So as to find the way to escape after transformation. "
After saying this, she returned the three pieces of paper to Shao Yongan.
Since the maze is alive, the map drawn actually makes no sense at all.
Li Yi glanced at her and said calmly:
“After more than two hours of traveling, I have engraved the entire maze in my mind.
In the second round of wandering, I will get clear instructions on which path has changed and how.
As long as I find the mother parent, I can deduce the route. "
Shao Yongan was stunned. He looked at Li Yi and had the urge to take a look at his brain.
What kind of brainpower does it take to do this level of calculation...
He finally understood that Li Yi's wandering in the first round was not an in-depth method at all.
Instead, walk through the maze to imprint it and reconstruct it three-dimensionally in your mind!
Now there is only one question left, what is the parent?
But there is still no room for others to worry about this issue.
Because Li Yi had already pressed the headset, connected to the public channel, and said softly:
"Chang Nian, you haven't entered the building yet, have you?"
"No, you said."
“Send the arrangement of all the lighted windows on both sides of the building at No. 444 Diaoying Road to my mobile phone.
They are my mother book for solving the maze. I give you three minutes. "
Everyone looked eagerly at Li Yi, who was calm and commanding, and couldn't help but have a strange look on their faces.
"It turns out this is what it feels like to be a teammate with Li Yi. It's so cool..."
