The Genius Mage

Chapter 380: Breaking the Maze

Therefore, the few of them quickly walked a distance forward and were surprised to find that some of the trees were marked by Audrey. However, the surrounding environment was different from the path they had just taken.

“What’s going on?” Their expressions instantly turned heavy.

“It’s probably because the trees are moving, so we’ve always been in this forest,” Adrian quickly made a deduction. Coincidentally, Audrey also agreed.

In the current situation, this was the only possibility.

“Then, aren’t we going to be trapped here?” Kate said worriedly. His handsome face had a slight frown, and he looked uneasy.

Adrian and Audrey looked at each other as though they were trying to see if she had any good countermeasures.

However, Audrey was only thinking.

“If we want to get out, we have to destroy this formation.” At this moment, Morris spoke slowly. Although he was not a member of the five great families, he had experienced a lot since he was young, so he had some understanding of the maze.

“Morris, do you have any good ideas?” Hearing this, Cole immediately became happy and looked at Morris expectantly.

“I do have one, but I don’t know if it will work.” Morris scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and smiled embarrassedly. He had only heard a few things from others and had no real experience.

Even so, Morris had become their hope.

“Tell me about it. We have no other way now anyway.” Hobart looked up at him and said faintly.

Morris nodded and said thoughtfully, “In fact, such a maze has a regular pattern. Usually, there is a tree that doesn’t move, which is the center of the maze. So as long as we find that tree and destroy it, the maze will be broken.”

“Find a tree?” Kate asked in surprise.

After all, there were thousands of trees in front of them. It was really difficult to find one among so many.

Morris nodded and showed a helpless expression. This was the only way he knew.

“How can we find so many trees?” Cole also felt that it was impossible, and he immediately showed a troubled expression.

“It’s not impossible. There are so many of us. If each of us keeps an eye on some trees, it might be possible.” Adrian thought for a moment and comforted him.

“Really?” Cole asked doubtfully.

Audrey immediately echoed, “We can try. This is the only way.”

“Let’s give it a try then.”

As soon as he said that, the few of them had already arranged their positions in tacit understanding. Even Fire Phoenix took the initiative to help.

“Everyone, focus your attention and pay attention to observe. Mark it.” Looking at the rapidly changing trees in front of them, Morris shouted, and the rest of them perked up one after another.

The trees in the forest were indeed like what Adrian had said. They were constantly changing. Fortunately, their perceptive ability and speed were not bad, and they could keep up with the speed of the changes in the trees.

Soon, the changes of the trees went through around. Many of the trees were marked, and the rest were accidentally left out.

“Look at these again.”Morris stared at some of the trees in front of him and said nervously, “We have to find the right one at once. If we destroy the wrong one, we might be trapped here forever.”

He did not tell them this just now because he was afraid they would make a mistake because they were too nervous.

Now, hearing this, Klein and the others became even more nervous. They were also worried about whether they had made a mistake just now.

Audrey seemed to see through their thoughts at a glance. She immediately comforted them, “Don’t think too much. Everyone was very serious just now. They won’t make a mistake.”

“Yeah, you have to believe in yourself,” Adrian agreed immediately. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that the trees were changing. He immediately made a mark on it.

After some observation, Morris and Audrey finally locked onto a towering tree in front of them. They stared at it intently, their hearts filled with determination and anxiety.

“It’s this one,” Morris looked at Audrey and said with certainty.

Audrey nodded. After thinking for a moment, she condensed a ball of fire in her palm and attacked the tree. In an instant, the tree was reduced to ashes.

The trees that were changing suddenly stopped. A clear path appeared, as though it was leading the group.

“Look, this path seems to lead us out,” Kate said happily when he noticed the path that led to the light.

“That’s great. Let’s go take a look,” Cole agreed immediately. The two of them took the lead and walked forward.

Audrey smiled silently and followed behind Morris.

After walking along the road for a while, they arrived at a place with fewer trees. However, not far away, there was a cave entrance that seemed to hide something.

“That cave entrance…” Morris sized it up. Just as he was about to ask Audrey, he heard her say, “Let’s go in and take a look.”

Audrey was no stranger to caves. Ever since she came to this world, she had entered many caves, and each time she had a different experience.

Therefore, the cave became the place that Audrey was most curious about.

The few of them walked forward again. Just as they were about to enter the cave, a mushroom cloud suddenly exploded in the air not far away. It was the smell of gunpowder.

Their expressions changed instantly.

“It’s in the direction of Spark City,” Klein said.
