Chapter 218 The Incredible Labyrinth

"Is this the interior of the ruins?"

Celia and Elena, having passed through the stone gate, were somewhat shocked by the scene before them.

They saw that the interior of the ruins was intricate and complex, with roads cutting through the space, intertwined like countless ropes.

Yes, space is not a plane.

The entire space was filled with various roads, which floated in the air. Most of them were not vertical, and some were even upside down.

The road stretching out beneath my feet disappeared into a tangled mess of roads. Looking further into the distance, I could only see scattered starlight, which seemed to be the starry sky, or perhaps lights shining from a window.

The two were stunned for a moment when they saw this situation for the first time.

Celia had only seen the Lost Lighthouse ruins and hadn't explored what the other ruins looked like. After looking at them for a while, she turned to Elena and asked, "Elena, are the other ruins like this too?"

Elena snapped out of her daze and immediately shook her head: "I've been to many ruins, but this is the first time I've seen a structure that defies common sense."

"What are the other ruins like?" Celia asked.

Elena thought for a moment and said, "Some ruins directly simulate the outside environment, such as villages and towns, barren mountains and wilderness, or canyons, cliffs, or small islands."

"There are also some ruins that are very simple and straightforward, set up as a world like an underground city, where you have to travel through dark underground the whole time. It's like a huge underground tunnel complex that connects one monster's lair after another."

"I've heard that there are some special ruins, like the Sky City, that are suspended in the sky. To get up there, you need to be able to fly, or they form a tower shape, with each level being a wonderful environment."

"So many amazing ancient ruins!" Celia exclaimed in amazement.

Ross said, "Most of these ancient ruins were created by sorcerers of legendary or higher rank who projected images of reality into the subspaces they created, thus preserving many things for future generations to enter and search for the treasures they left behind."

"A small number are like lost lighthouses, which are corrupted and then taken over by corrupted monsters. They act according to certain rules. Over time, the ruins will gradually differentiate into subspace forms, but the main body can still be seen from the outside."

"As for this ruin, opening the door is the method of teleportation. Pure magic crystals power the stone door and open a passage to the subspace. Once you pass through the stone door, you are in the subspace."

Hearing Ross's explanation, Celia couldn't help but ask curiously, "What would have happened if we hadn't entered the warp? Would we have been trapped inside and crushed to death?"

Ross smiled slightly: "That's not the case. The existence of the subspace requires a medium, either a very valuable magical material, a large magic circle, or a mapping based on the real world."

"This subspace is the second type. It's behind the stone gate, hidden inside the mountain. It's a huge subspace magic array. This array has at least some space reserved for its setup, so if you go in and don't actually enter the subspace, what you'll see should be an ordinary cave."

Celia nodded, indicating that she understood.

After pausing for a moment, the two summoned their puppets, letting them lead the way before slowly walking forward.

"This ruin is a trap puzzle type. Judging from the layout of those roads, the first trap is likely a three-dimensional maze..."

Before Elena could finish speaking, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.

Suddenly, the tangled road twisted and turned and then rushed closer.

The next second, they saw the roads all around them and above them.

The road is paved with stone slabs, and there are some stones and small trees on both sides.

The small trees stood perpendicular to the road, hanging upside down from their perspective.

Elena immediately became wary: "This labyrinth is incredible. We've only taken two steps, and things have changed. I've heard that the first person to enter an ancient ruin has the right to name it. I think this ancient ruin could be called 'The Incredible Labyrinth.'" Celia didn't speak; she had already released her mage's hand, sensing everything around her.

Unfortunately, she did not sense any power from the magic array runes.

Those roads hanging upside down seemed as if they were meant to be hanging upside down.

Ross said, "The subspace created by sorcerers is not bound by the physical rules of reality. Don't assume that every strange sight is a magic circle at work."

Celia suddenly realized, "So that's how it is! How amazing! I wonder what level it would take to create such a magical subspace."

“At least Tier 6,” Ross said calmly. “Only at Tier 6 can you reach the threshold of creating a subspace. Once you reach this level, you can create a small world to store your personal items. You’re still a long way from that stage. Instead of thinking about creating a subspace, you should consider getting a space ring.”

Celia said, "Space rings are too expensive. The cheapest ones start at 500 gold coins. I can't afford them."

She had also looked into things like spatial rings, which were very convenient.

But after just one glance, she lost the desire to buy it.

Because spatial rings are expensive, extremely expensive, ridiculously expensive, beyond the reach of an ordinary sorcerer like her.

“It’s a bit expensive, but it’s very convenient. You can save up to buy one.” As he spoke, Ross couldn’t help but shake his head: “I originally planned to have you buy the materials and I would guide you in making it, but your talent in the space system is not much different from your talent in potions, almost the same. So forget it.”

Celia: "...I can't do everything myself, can I?"

"Doing it yourself is the best."

“…” Celia had no way to refute it.

After all, they were facing a god. Perhaps what the god did wasn't the best, but it was certainly better than what an ordinary sorcerer did.

However, she still didn't quite understand why she had to do everything herself.

Why not just buy it from someone else? Using the time saved to do other things is a good alternative...

"If you have money, you can certainly do it this way, but if you don't, then you'd better do it yourself."

"……All right."

Celia understood.

As they spoke, the two continued to move forward.

This incredible maze has not yet shown any aggression; however, the path ahead has changed, no longer a straight line forward, but rather a winding and ascending one.

But even though I clearly saw the road ahead suddenly rise up, when I walked across it, it felt like walking on flat ground, without any sense of shifting my center of gravity.

This feeling was novel to the two girls.

However, even the most novel feelings will fade with time.

Now, a very important problem is facing the two of them—

"We seem to be stuck in a maze. How can we get to the other side?"
