Chapter 1074: The Maze and the Way to Break It
"Senior, so... can we ignore those lights?"
Chuju asked, and the girl in blue nodded.
"Of course—their goal is to trap us. We just need to focus on 'breaking' their trick."
"Of course they are the ones who are anxious."
The girl in blue said calmly, and Chuju was a little curious.
"What exactly is this trick?"
"Mirrors, and mirrors with hidden secrets—but even if you know this, you'll still have to go around for a while," the blue-clad girl said, her hands folded across her chest. "After all, once these mirrors are connected, you won't be able to tell which ones are mirrors and which ones aren't. Furthermore, the only way to the exit might be hidden within the mirrored space..."
The young leader spoke up: "Since they are mirrors...how about we just smash them?"
The girl in blue laughed. "You're a real genius, Qu Ling—any mirror can be shattered, right?"
She looked outside the tent, and a pen appeared in her hand, shaking it slightly, temporarily breaking through the dense mist.
She briefly created a "vacuum zone" about six or seven meters long, eliminating the obstruction of vision caused by water vapor.
"There should be a mirror in a secret place right in front of us - do you want to try to break it?"
The girl in blue said this, and the young leader was stunned.
Because there doesn't seem to be any "mirror" there.
On the contrary, the young leader could still see the Xia Jin soldiers lined up in formation.
However... the young leader didn't think the girl in blue was lying to him.
After considering for a few seconds, he spoke to the soldiers beside the tent.
"Give me your sword."
The soldier didn't ask any questions and took off his sword and handed it to the young leader.
After the young leader picked up his sword, he stood up from the bed and threw the sword with all his might.
The sword flew forward, and soon, a "mirror" reflection appeared about five meters away.
But the next moment, the mirror image disappeared, the tip of the sword sank into it, and he entered the world in the mirror.
It was like passing through the water.
The young leader said in horror: "This mirror..."
"Immune to most attacks, as you can see—it's not unbreakable, but the cost is too low. We're not in a hurry to leave, are we?"
The girl in blue said calmly.
After demonstrating the actual effectiveness of the mirror, Shaobuzhu and Chuju finally understood... what kind of strange and troublesome things they had encountered.
Chu Ju stared at the mirror, a little lost in thought.
"What a treacherous trick... How can we break it?"
The girl in blue held a pen between her fingers and rested her chin on her hand. "I told you, this is just a 'magic trick,' it's harmless... Just keep following the path, mark your marks, and you'll eventually find your way out. Even though he'll move the mirrors, the correct path always exists, and we have plenty of people who can try and make mistakes in various directions."
Chu Ju frowned and said, "But what if we actually need to seize the initiative? Senior, you said that the other party's goal is to delay time."
"Could it be that they have helpers who have already gone to tip off the demon tribe of Sanqiu Kingdom about our surprise attack?"
Chuju said this and the girl in blue looked at him.
"You're not that stupid to think of this..."
"I don't mind catching all their requests for help. Even if they knew we were coming for a surprise attack, they probably underestimated the level of this team."
The blue-dressed girl said, and the young leader nodded: "That's right, so what if we ask for help? Can't we just catch all the helpers who are here to support us?"
He spoke very heroically, and Chuju sighed again.
"War is different from fighting. Victory is what we need to consider most. If possible, I still hope to get out of this predicament as soon as possible."
The girl in blue heard Chu Ju's words and looked at him.
"Well, I have a slightly radical plan, but it might work..."
Chu Ju immediately made a gesture of listening attentively: "Please speak."
The girl in blue twirled the pen in her hand and looked at him with a smile.
"This isn't free, Chuju Wuzhu."
……
……
……
"Sure enough, they've already started circling!"
Qian Huan looked at the Xia Jin soldiers who had entered the mirror space and said with some relief.
He kept adjusting the position of the mirror and had never felt so comfortable doing it before - the various reflections caused by the mirror had already widened the scope of the "blind spot", and many mirrors themselves could be moved at will.
In addition, the visibility in the water mist is too low now, and Qianhuan can move more than 80% of the mirrors at almost any time.
"Thanks to you, 'Director,' you made this move even more formidable... This is our combined technique, let's call it 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon'."
Qian Huan said happily as he adjusted the positions of the mirrors.
Lin Yu had no objection to the name Qianhuan.
"I think it's a good name, but I'm wondering... under what circumstances we'll use this combo a second time."
“Honestly, I don’t think there will be much opportunity for us to collaborate – our organizations don’t quite align.”
Lin Yu didn't have anything to do at the moment, so he just needed to stay in this mirror space and feel the Xia Jin soldiers coming and going, whose directions of movement had become completely chaotic. If his mental power sensed that someone was too close to them, Lin Yu would take Qian Huan to change positions.
Because Qian Huan was still adjusting the position of the mirror in real time, this troop was no longer just going in circles or taking a detour - it was even being "divided"!
Qianhuan adjusts the mirror in real time. On the one hand, it can control them to go to different places and directions when leaving and entering the mirror space, and on the other hand, it can also distort their vision.
Although many times the Xia Jin soldiers thought they were still following the people in front of them, they actually didn't know that the team had deviated in direction from their side.
By the time they discovered the deviation, it was already too late.
The Xia Jin army, which had originally been in neat formation and had even shrunk, was now in chaos - there was even a scene where two teams moving in completely opposite directions collided head-on.
Although the central military headquarters tried to reorganize the troops, the efficiency was too low.
"At this rate, I feel like I can keep them trapped for a whole day."
Qian Huan looked at the teams that had been completely misled by him and said with some pride.
But Lin Yu discovered something different.
"Wait a moment……"
Indeed, all the teams were circling, and Qian Huan's plan went smoothly.
But he felt... these circles did not seem to be without pattern - even though Qian Huan was trying to change the direction of each team's advance as chaotically as possible, and the scouts sent by the central army to reorganize the team had little effect.
but……
Lin Yu suddenly discovered that there seemed to be several teams... who were actively "circling" in chaos.
The other party's movements were not aimed at finding an exit.
Instead, it’s more like…
Looking for the location of himself and Qian Huan.
