Chapter 382: Disorienting and Unusual Labyrinth

Be it the ineffective [Identification Scroll] or the special mechanism of the hilt guard, it meant that these two sabers should have been a whole.

However, because he was a few seconds too late, Wang Xiao could not combine them. Otherwise, he would not have been thinking about this until now.

Although Wang Xiao was not too interested in weapon-type items, such a mystery made him lose his appetite.

“I should have asked Adjutant Qi directly just now. Perhaps he could have directly brought it over for me to see!”

Wang Xiao thought to himself as he ate. However, now that he was back, there was no point in thinking too much.

“Why don’t I look for Adjutant Qi again?”

Wang Xiao had this thought, but on second thought, he felt that it was inappropriate.

Putting aside whether Qi Lianjun would agree or not, even if he agreed and brought the black saber over, if the two parts really combined, he would most likely take away the white saber in Wang Xiao’s hand.

He had just “lost” 3 billion. Wouldn’t it be even more of a loss to lose another high-level item?

However, wang Xiao was unwilling to give up Just 11Ke tnat.

The main reason was that the display cabinet was not locked and only had a simple clasp. The route to the collection storage room was also very predictable. It was not difficult to obtain an answer.

Moreover, Wang Xiao had just obtained the white saber from Lan Dahai in the morning and saw the matching black saber at night. There were thousands of exotic items in the corridor. Why was it so coincidental that the black saber happened to be opposite his room?

This was fate!

“If only I could find a reason to go in again...”

Wang Xiao ate and pondered secretly. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. The route was all memorized in his mind. Even without Qi Lianjun, he could still go back!

The only problem was that sneaking in was a very serious violation. Once he was caught, the consequences would definitely be unimaginable. Therefore, Wang Xiao had to enter “openly”. nove(Lb)1n

With a thought, the thin [Nirvana Mask] appeared in Wang Xiao’s hand. Qi Lianjun was busy and would not appear for a while. As long as he disguised himself as Qi Lianjun, no one would suspect him even if they bumped into him!

He did as he said!

Wang Xiao finished the remaining food in a few bites and left the canteen to find a corner that no one was paying attention to.

When Wang Xiao came out of the corner, he had already transformed into Qi Lianjun.

Wang Xiao touched his face to confirm that there was no problem. Then, he walked towards the elevator with a straight face. Qi Lianjun usually had an unreasonable poker face, so it was not difficult for him to disguise himself. He only had to be careful not to bump into the real Qi Lianjun.

However, not long after, Wang Xiao realized that his worries were a little unnecessary. Perhaps it was because it was too late, but there was already no one in the military building. Along the way, not to mention Qi Lianjun himself, he had not even encountered a passerby.

Soon, Wang Xiao took the elevator to the sixth floor. Such an unexpected smooth trip made him even more certain that all of this was fate’s arrangement!

After quickly going through the route in his heart, Wang Xiao took a deep breath and prepared to set off. However, as soon as the elevator door opened, he was stunned.

There was no corridor or room outside the elevator. The entire sixth floor looked empty. Other than a few pillars for support, there were only four surrounding walls.

“What’s going on?”

Wang Xiao looked at the empty sixth floor and frowned. He clearly remembered that he had taken seventeen turns the last time he came, but there was not even a room here. There were only a few pillars. Was there a need to take so many turns?

As he thought to himself, Wang Xiao stuck his head out to take a look, and his expression became even stranger. There were no stairs leading down here.

“Did I remember wrongly? Did Adjutant Qi not press the sixth floor?”

Wang Xiao muttered and returned to the elevator. He went to the seventh and fifth floors to take a look, but these two floors seemed to be office areas. There were rooms outside the elevator, but they did not match the route in his memory.

Helpless, Wang Xiao could only return to the sixth floor. Although he did not see the stairs going down just now, his position in the elevator was limiting. Perhaps the stairs were in a blind spot that he could not see.

With this thought in mind, Wang Xiao walked out of the elevator and changed a few positions. He looked at the back of the pillars and as expected, he still did not find the stairs leading down.

“Could there be a mechanism?”

Wang Xiao nursed his lips and pondered. Suddenly. he heard a faint buzzing

sound in his ears, like the sound of some machine operating. However, the sound was very soft, as if it was coming from another floor.

After listening for a while, he still could not confirm the source of the sound. Wang Xiao no longer paid attention to this sound. Just as he was about to look for another mechanism, he looked up and saw the tightly shut elevator door.

Wang Xiao said, “Huh?” He suddenly felt that something was wrong. As he was unfamiliar with the situation, he had not walked far after leaving the elevator. Logically speaking, the elevator should be behind him. Why did it suddenly appear in front?

“Could there be two elevators here? But why didn’t I see them when I came out just now?”

Wang Xiao muttered and turned around. His expression instantly became strange.

The elevator that should have been behind him was gone. There was only an empty floor and a few support pillars.

The environment he was in changed, but Wang Xiao did not turn around at all after walking out of the elevator!

An ominous feeling surged in his heart. Wang Xiao suddenly realized that something was wrong with this place.

After weighing the pros and cons, Wang Xiao still decided to retreat first. However, just as he took a few steps in the direction of the elevator, he suddenly felt his vision blur. When he saw clearly again, the elevator in front of him had actually moved to the left!

Wang Xiao thought that he had seen wrongly and did not care too much. He adjusted his direction and continued to walk towards the elevator. However, before he could take ten steps, his vision suddenly blurred again, and the elevator moved to his right again!

After this happened twice, Wang Xiao had already completely realized that something was wrong. He wanted to leave this troublesome place, but no matter how he walked, the elevator seemed to have a life of its own. There were a few times when it directly ran behind him!

“What the hell is going on?”

Wang Xiao felt like he was about to collapse. His first reaction was that there was some kind of item here that interfered with his sense of direction. However, after taking out the [Identification Scroll] and tearing it open, the surroundings were silent.

The elevator was only ten meters away, but this ten meters seemed to be endless. Wang Xiao pursed his lips and thought for a moment. He suddenly thought of a key point—every time his surroundings changed, his vision seemed to be “blinded”.

“Could it be a maze?”

Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes thoughtfully. Although this place was empty and did not look like a maze, the last time he came, Qi Lianjun was indeed wearing an eye mask and earplugs like him.

If it was just to keep it a secret, there was no need for Qi Lianjun to wear an eye mask at all.. Perhaps the key to cracking this maze was his vision and hearing?
