I really can't control myself

"Is Da Mo Dou performing martial arts?" After the game started, Zeref appeared behind a few people quietly. He probably only now knew what kind of game he was participating in, but he didn't really care. What made him a little curious was just what Linton wanted to do.

"Okay, everyone is here and the game has begun." Linton stood up and said, "Anyway, I will say one thing, since you have participated, you must win the championship. We will have a bronze upgrade with our platinum configuration. If we still lose, everyone will be punished, don’t look at it, including you.”

Linton pointed to Zeref behind him, and then continued: "Everyone is here, let's go!"

"That's all we can do." Gajeel said, "Go ahead!"

After saying that, Gajeel here rushed up the stairs. Yalan, who was here, followed the second one very happily. Of course, he still carried Wendy up, and Linton followed Yalan. at the back, and Zeref walked at the end with no interest.

The road to the maze in the sky is still very long, not to mention hundreds of stairs. Even so, it is not difficult for the magician. Linton looked at Yalan. She could keep up with Gajeel's speed while holding Wendy in her arms. She walked hundreds of stairs without even taking a breath. Of course, this is normal. Even though Yalan is a magician, she has drank the high-level genetic potion provided by Linton. Her physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary swordsmen. In fact, in terms of combat power alone, She is more powerful without magic.

Of course, Linton and Zeref behind were even less stressed. Their movements looked like they were just walking normally, but they could keep up with the two people in front. It didn't take much time. After a few minutes, they were able to keep up. We have arrived at the gate of the maze.

Looking inside, the world inside the sphere is simply like a psychedelic world in a dream, with all kinds of fragmented roads, all kinds of strange rooms and walls, and you can't even tell the top from the bottom. This is indeed a real world. The maze is still the kind of maze that is so complicated that you don’t even know how to navigate it.

This chaotic place caused Gajeel, the leader, to stop unconsciously. He really didn't know where to go. Yalan here also looked around and had no clue.

"What should I do?" Yalan looked at Linton and asked. To be honest, she was habitually dependent on Linton.

"I know!" Before Linton could answer, Wendy in Yalan's arms suddenly raised her hand and said.

"You know?" Linton looked at Wendy suspiciously.

"Yeah." Wendy nodded, then took out a letter. Linton knew this letter. It was the contact letter that the other party gave to him when he signed up. "I just noticed that the content in this letter has changed. After the competition started, what it displayed changed to A picture, it should be the map here.”

"Let me take a look." Linton took the letter and looked at it. It really turned into a map. Linton was not anxious to look at the map, but looked at Wendy here.

"Um...did I say something wrong?" Wendy was still a little afraid of Linton. When she saw Linton looking at her, she shrank back and asked.

"Tell me, are you a fake? My men are all trash that is rare to see in a hundred years. One or two of them are useless to you. How can you be so reliable? This is unscientific!" Linton said.

"You are looking for trouble. Why do you want to accept such a guy as your subordinate? What is your purpose?" Yalan shouted directly.

"I'm not a loser, you bastard!" Gajeel yelled.

"Then how do you go?" Linton asked.

"Give me the map!" Gajeel grabbed the map directly, looked at it, looked at it again, then turned around and looked at it again, "Damn it, this thing is not a map at all!"

"I feel relieved when I see you are such a waste." Linton patted Gajeel's shoulder earnestly and said.

"I'm not a waste, bastard, there's something wrong with this map!" Gajeel yelled.

"Let me take a look." Yalan took the map and looked at it, and then said, "There does seem to be some problems. Some places are not clearly marked. Maybe... there are parts missing. I roughly understand that this map should not be Complete, and since we have a map, other teams should also have maps. I think the organizer may mean to let us snatch the maps of other teams. After all, everyone is in this maze now. If we get other maps, we should Being able to piece together a complete map and get to the finish line.”

"My wife is so reliable!" After hearing Yalan's analysis, Linton directly praised her, "Look, what is the gap?"

"So what I said is right, there is indeed something wrong with this map." Gajeel said.

"What you said, no matter whether there is a problem with the map or not, people who are really capable will always find a way to solve it, right?" Linton said, patting Zeref next to him, "I know you guys don't Reliable, don’t worry, I have found a reliable guy to come to CARRY, no matter what situation you encounter, just look for him.”

"Me?" Zeref asked.

"Yes, there is no problem in solving this maze," Linton said.

"There is indeed no problem." Zeref nodded, "If you interfere with the manifestation magic, you can easily solve the maze."

"Look, what is professionalism?" Linton said, "Are you ashamed?"

"No... why is Zeref in our team?" Gajeel said, holding his forehead, "No matter how much I think about it, I still feel something is wrong."

"Speaking of which, why is this emperor free to participate in this competition?" Yalan asked, "It won't delay your state affairs. If there is any trouble, please don't pay attention to what my husband says."

"..." Zeref looked at Yalan in surprise, and then looked at Linton with strange eyes. Although he didn't speak, Linton read the meaning from his eyes, which was probably "A person like you" How did you marry such a kind woman?"

"It's okay. He founded the country just for fun." Linton ignored Zeref's eyes and said directly to Yalan.

"Are you kidding?" Yalan was slightly stunned.

"In his country, it doesn't matter if the emperor is away all day long. It seems like he hasn't been back for hundreds of years, and the country is still very stable. On the contrary, the emperor has no necessary spiritual profession, and he doesn't know how to govern the country." Linton said.

"Is there such a good...such a country?" Yalan said.

"The cabinet is delegating power like crazy." Linton said, "That is to say, he is awesome, so the cabinet will not oppose it, otherwise it would have become a parliamentary system of government long ago."

"Hmm..." To be honest, Yalan couldn't imagine what the situation in that country was like. In her opinion, the country would probably collapse if she was gone for a month. What is the situation in a country where the emperor has not seen anyone for hundreds of years and is fine? Of course, Linton probably didn't lie to her, but she was a little curious.

"Anyway, don't worry about these, he is very empty." Linton said, "right."

"Indeed, in terms of time, it is the most resource I have." Zeref said, "It is also the thing I least want."

"Huh?" Yalan was stunned again.

"Can we stop being so sad? We finally have some atmosphere." Linton said, "Hurry up, since you can handle it, hurry up and get it done."

Zeref nodded, then raised his right hand and pointed at a distant location. A black light flashed on his body, and then suddenly the entire inside of the maze began to vibrate.

The previously broken ground and strange walls suddenly began to move. Soon, these roads were connected to each other, and at the same time, the walls and other things blocking the road quickly moved away automatically, going left, right, and not long after, a straight passage appeared directly. In front of everyone. Although we can't see where this passage leads yet, it goes without saying that it will probably go directly to the end.

"Uh... is this okay?" Gajeel looked at the passage in front of him for a long time and couldn't help but said.

"Let's see what reliability means." Linton said, "Let's go."

"I always feel like something is missing..." Yalan couldn't help but said, but she still followed quickly.

The passage is very safe. Although the format of the preliminaries is obviously for the participating teams to fight each other and capture each other's maps, it is obvious that Zeref does not want to waste time on this matter. It is estimated that when he was sorting out the maze, other teams All the people moved out, and Linton and the others did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

They kept walking like this, and soon they came to an exit marked "GOAL". There was a familiar person standing at the gate. It was the pumpkin-headed shadow that I had seen in the air before. I didn't know whether the person was a person in a doll suit or some kind of magical derivative.

"Congratulations to everyone for passing the preliminaries." The pumpkin head puppet here said to several people.

"I feel like why I didn't do anything." Gajeel couldn't help but said, and Yalan next to him nodded.

"It's just the preliminaries. It's not difficult at all. It's a waste of time." Linton said, "The main competition seems to be an individual competition."

"Yeah..." Yalan nodded when she heard that it was an individual competition.

"That's how we came here. We're probably the first." Gajeel said.

"Oh, no, you are the second group here." Pumpkinhead replied.

"Huh?" Even Linton was stunned for a moment this time, "Isn't it right? The ones from our side are the same as those who cheated. Is there anyone faster than cheating?"

"Well, a group has indeed passed through here." The pumpkin-headed doll said, "It's the team from the Sword-biting Tiger Guild."

"Sword-Bite Tiger, I have heard of them." Gajeel said, "I heard that in the few years since we were gone, the Sword-Bite Tiger Guild has always been the strongest guild in the entire kingdom. The three returning I heard their names many times over the course of the month.”

"The strongest guild again? The last one who said that was Ghost..." Linton said.
