Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 538 - 309: I’m quite good at driving_2

Luo Feng shook his head and said, "No, but I discovered something strange. The markings on the ground seem to be deliberately luring us into the maze."

"Didn't you see the Wolf Butler?" Chen Qingyun asked, somewhat puzzled.

Luo Feng's face showed a moment of confusion as he said, "No, what's the Wolf Butler?"

"The Wolf Butler appears to be the manager of this castle," Chen Qingyun said.

After speaking, he quickly asked, "Then how did you enter the maze?"

"After I separated from Luo Heng, I was searching for a way to bypass the stone door. Somehow, I ended up somewhere I didn't recognize, and then I found markings on the ground, followed them, and entered the maze," Luo Feng replied.

"At the entrance of the maze, words appeared on the wall, telling me that I could obtain treasures stored within the castle by clearing the maze. At that time, I had no other way, so I had to enter the maze."

"No other way?" Chen Qingyun asked suspiciously.

Before Luo Feng could speak, a bright light erupted, activating the effect of the lucky card.

[Activate Lucky Card, Gain Effect—Mechanism]

Lu Yu opened his eyes, his gaze shrouded in a white light. He could see through the walls and view other parts of the game mechanisms. A glance around, and he saw five or six nearby game mechanisms, including the deadly rolling ball game they had just cleared.

Aside from the game mechanisms, Lu Yu couldn't see anything else, not even the exit of the maze. However, based on the cross-sections of the bricks on the ground, Lu Yu could roughly deduce where the walls and corridors were.

Humming~ The light dissipated, and the world in Lu Yu's eyes returned to normal. He blinked, adjusting to the restored world.

Taking out a jade slip, the map in his mind quickly sketched itself within the jade slip, occasionally feeling something was off and making a few corrections.

Chen Qingyun, Luo Heng, and Luo Feng, understanding each other without words, quietly watched Lu Yu holding a jade slip, unsure of what he was doing.

After a while, Lu Yu stopped drawing the map and withdrew his Spiritual Power.

He handed the jade slip to Luo Feng and said, "This is the map I saw. Some parts might be inaccurate, but the routes to the various game mechanisms are mostly correct. I couldn't see much farther."

Luo Feng took the jade slip, initially thinking that Lu Yu would only be able to see two or three game mechanisms. Instead, when his mind entered the jade slip, he realized it contained almost a complete maze.

It not only included the parts Lu Yu saw with the lucky card's 'mechanism' but also combined the routes he had been recording since entering the maze, and merged with Luo Heng's map.

Apart from the areas a bit further away, the map in the jade slip covered almost the entire maze.

He thought for a moment and added some routes he had taken, finally discovering that the entrance he used was different from the one Lu Yu and the others used to enter the maze.

Lu Yu, Chen Qingyun, and Luo Heng entered through the main front gate of the maze, while Luo Feng used the left gate of the maze, according to the map.

Ultimately, their destination was the exit located at the back of the maze.

Currently, they were nearing the center of the maze. According to the markings made by Lu Yu, there should also be a game to complete at the center.

Showing the completed map to Chen Qingyun and Luo Heng, Luo Feng asked them to memorize its contents or copy them onto a blank jade slip.

This was to prevent getting separated, as who knows if there might be mechanisms within the maze that could scatter everyone.

Lu Yu retrieved the jade slip, instinctively glanced inside, and discovered many places he hadn't been to were now filled in. He looked at Luo Feng but said nothing.

Sharing the map benefits everyone and poses no harm.

"What should we do next?" Chen Qingyun asked. "Should we separate to complete several games independently, or should we tackle them one by one together?"

"Separating would be faster," Luo Feng said.

He had experience completing a game alone, so finishing a game independently wasn't difficult for him.

Chen Qingyun actually thought the same way; otherwise, he wouldn't have brought up the idea.

By dividing up, each person could complete a game, significantly accelerating the acquisition of lucky cards.

Most importantly, dying in a game wasn't truly dying, so there was practically no risk.

As for potential issues like being replaced or parasitized after separating, Chen Qingyun had solutions to address those.

"If there are no objections, let's split up," Chen Qingyun stated. He took out a jade medallion, and it split into four pieces in his hand.

"This is a temporary version of the Soul-Imbued Jade. Everyone should leave behind a sliver of their soul."

The three of them each took a piece of the Soul-Imbued Jade. Lu Yu, imitating the others, pressed the jade against his forehead, letting a small strand of his soul energy enter the jade.

Just a tiny portion of his soul filled the jade completely. When he removed it from his forehead, it contained Lu Yu's soul.

Chen Qingyun rubbed the jade between his hands, dividing it into four pieces, keeping one for himself and distributing the others among the three.

"When meeting up, you can directly use the Soul-Imbued Jade to determine whether someone has been parasitized or taken over, but this type of jade only lasts for about two hours. That should be sufficient to complete the game."

"Once you've completed the game and obtained a lucky card, meet back here. Any questions?" Chen Qingyun said.
