Son of the Olden Days

When Thor opened his eyes again, he found himself in a forest.

Dark brown rough trunks, dark green branches and leaves grow freely, sunlight pouring down from thin clouds and treetops, quiet and warm. Suddenly leaving the continent of Yongye and being in such a beautiful scenery, it was like a desert inhabitant who was suddenly hit by a rain when he raised his head.

The naked Saul did not get up in a hurry, but kept lying on his back on the ground to observe.

He knew he would have enough time to satisfy all his curiosity.

With the moment he opened his eyes, he thought of many things at the same time. About the promotion, about all kinds of strange mazes, of course, there are also about his cheap sister, Fenice Shiitake and her weird maze team.

The memory is slowly spliced ​​like a lost jigsaw, and finally forms a seamless whole.

Maze, walking, a lot of time consumption, no clothes and belongings, no water consumption, no fatigue...

Sol put his head back on the ground and lay down, feeling the dazzling sun above his head and the warm ground under him, Sol sorted out all the things he could think of. Then he stood up and began to observe the maze under his feet.

After turning around and looking around for a while, Saul started to have a headache, which seemed to be a range-type maze again.

Based on the previous three advancement experiences, Thor divided the types of mazes he encountered into range type and coin type.

In the previous three times, the first time was the high wall maze, the second time was the deep sea maze, and the third time was the sky tower.

High-wall mazes and deep-sea mazes belong to the scope type. The so-called scope type refers to a wide area, in which branch roads are staggered and dense. You can choose any direction from any place in the maze. There is no right or wrong, everything depends on feeling and luck.

In the deep sea, there were actually no roads, only shipwrecks, water plants and empty seabed beaches. It's a beautiful scene, but despair will come after seeing too much. Although the deep-sea labyrinth has no road, it is temporarily classified as a range type by Thor because of its wideness.

The Sky Tower was coin-shaped. Although there are rooms on each floor of the tower to choose from, strictly speaking, there are only two directions up and down. Just like a coin dropped on a smooth ground, it will always be on the front and back, and the extremely small probability of being erected can be ignored.

In terms of probability, what shakes people's hearts in a range maze is that because there are so many directions and possibilities, the probability of the correct path is constantly being divided. The coin type is a little better, the probability is 50-50, but it is too painful to pay double the time after choosing the wrong one.

Standing in the unknown forest maze at the moment, Sol looked around and quickly found some features.

He found that every tree here looks almost the same, but their pattern is very regular. If you cut out the small area where you are located, it happens to be between the four trees, and the standing positions around the four trees just form an oblique square.

This means that if Thor stands side by side with the two trees on the left and right, his front and back vision will be blocked by a tree each. But if he lifts his body diagonally, his field of vision can penetrate countless diagonal squares to see far away. It can be said that every tree in this forest is equidistant.

This is both good news and bad news.

The good news is that Saul can roughly walk out of the X-shaped path. With the faint sunlight in the forest, his squint can reach the horizon far away. Oh, or that's not a horizon, it's just that the vision is not as good as the illusory blur that is formed in the end.

In short, if there is something special on the slash path, he can find it at a glance, such as a beautiful elf without clothes suddenly appearing in the woods. Then Saul can make sure that she can't escape her vision, and then quickly approached and threw her down.

Of course, what if you ask her to hide behind a certain tree and can't see it? That should be another battle of wits.

The bad news is that he used his sight to penetrate the four directions that his current vision can cover, all of which are the same equidistant trees, all of the same scenery and repetition, including the blurred horizon in the distance in the four directions.

This means that the entire maze must be too big to imagine, just looking at it can make people tired, not to mention the next walk.

He tilted his head and looked at them. These trees were almost the same, round and thick.

Saul raised his hands, barely able to make a hug, or find a certain point of borrowing. So he casually supported a tree next to him, started climbing up with his hands and feet and using the ground, wanting to climb to the top of the tree to achieve the original purpose of climbing high and looking into the distance.

Unfortunately, after crawling for a short period of time, he discovered the anomaly, and he found that the ground was still under his ass. It is as if I have not moved while holding a tree trunk. It can also be said that the section of the tree trunk I have climbed before seems to have shrunk into the ground.

Sol didn't feel any surprises about this either. This was obviously a certain rule or restriction of the maze itself. So he gave up looking for shortcuts, put aside all unrealistic ideas, and started to walk honestly as he did during the previous few promotions.

Once you start walking in this kind of maze, all kinds of mental negatives lurks around, like a shadow, becoming heavier and heavier.

If there are two roads in the golden forest, how to choose is a philosophical question.

Saul didn't know what kind of problem he was right under his eyes, and there were roads everywhere.

What I need to worry about here is not that drinking water is not about survival and physical strength, but that it is about fighting against mental or spiritual consumption.

The difference from the previous few times is that this time Thor didn't care about the time anymore, and even vaguely estimated that he didn't try again. Because the more you care about it, the more this problem will become a demon. In the end, you will get nothing but anxiety and tiredness.

So many days passed, and Thor was still walking.

The only good news is that my heart is generally calm, and the madly tearing negativity has not yet arrived.

Obviously, he is becoming a qualified and perverted maze veteran.

Thinking of this, Sol also affected the facial muscles that had been too stiff because of the lack of activity for too long, and smiled slightly.

Sol has already seen the terrible part of this maze. It no longer has walls and forks of varying lengths to increase your judgment, or to attract your attention, thereby giving you some meaningless confidence. .

There are only trees here. No matter how you go, and from which direction you go, what you see will always look the same, and trees that extend far away in a regular pattern. After watching for a long time, you can't help but develop a sense of confusion about whether you are walking or not.

What's more interesting is.

Every step you take, it feels like the entire forest is moving with you, and you are always in the center of the forest.

In such an environment, every sudden idea or problem is very important.

As long as it can attract your attention and make your mind fall temporarily, it is earned.

So Saul thinks about the simple questions first, and then saves the thought-provoking ones for later. He doubted that if he kept going this way, as long as he walked long enough, he might become a philosopher.

Thinking about it, he began to sing all kinds of music that he could sing, not even Timo's vulgar song.

"La la la~ la la~ we howl, we sing, we drink, we slap over the table."

After singing countless times and vomiting, he began to imitate Timo's skeleton sound, his own shiitake mushroom sound, the old man's voice, the sound of male and female frogs, and the sound of dogs barking wolf howling wild boar. When he couldn't play anymore, he became a philosopher again.

Sol knows very well that he is on the road to becoming a professional neuropathy, and the only thing he can do is to slow down the transformation process.

Many more days passed.

Saul felt like he had a beard and his entire face was drowned.

I really want to find something to scrape, even a piece of stone.

In fact, his face was as clean as new, and those beards just grew in his heart.

Sol also saw some shadows lurking behind the surrounding trees. During the countless haunts of the other party, he had caught him with his sight more than once, but every time he chased him where he landed, the guy could escape cunningly.

Saul knows that he is getting more and more dangerous. These involuntary hallucinations are the manifestations of inner negativity on the level of consciousness.

Today seems to be lucky, he found out a new question from countless questions he had thought about.

Sol remembered the trekking state he had said to Hodder.

Tired, weak, depressed, and even desperate, but still walking steadfastly, Saul felt like he was trekking.

I often hear many people say.

Some things require the support of willpower to achieve a certain result or ending you want in the end.

These people may have just thought about mouth addiction, or they may think that after they have expounded a truth, they have the spirit contained in the truth, and they have gained something or power in the words.

Okay, save this joke for later.

In the final analysis, these people may not know what willpower is.

You suddenly feel sleepy and want to sleep for a while, and then you forcibly lift up your spirit and support it for a while. Does this mean that you have willpower? No, this is at best called temporary persistence.

In other words, Sol believes that it is very difficult for willpower to appear where there is a way out.

Sol believes that true willpower should be such a thing, you are struggling in the hot desert, and there is no trace of water. Then you were thirsty and unbearable, staggering forward under the scorching sun's gaze, you wanted to fall countless times, but you did not.

Then you start to drink your own urine, and then you can't even pee it out.

But you still haven't fallen, you're still walking, surpassing the limit of physical strength, and crossing the swamp of spirit.

You have used countless momentary persistence to form a long and difficult period. After experiencing one time for the rest of your life, you will never want to experience the second terrible time again. Even when you look back, you can't believe that this is what you did. .

This is the real willpower.

In the maze right now, Saul knew that his willpower was numbered, limited, and used a little less. And this process is irreversible, it will only decline, annihilate, and dissipate with infinite time, but it will not grow.

Well, it doesn't make much sense if you know it or not, because he is still walking.

After many months, perhaps even longer, Saul finally saw something different on the edge of the forest.
