I really can't control myself.

1149 - Straight
"Demon fighting martial arts?" After the competition started, Jeref quietly appeared behind them. It is probably only now that he knew what competition he was participating in, but he didn't care too much. What made him a little curious was just what Linton wanted to do.

"Okay, everyone is here, and the competition has begun." Linton stood up and said, "In short, I just want to say that since I participated, I must win the championship. Our platinum configuration will play a bronze promotion competition. If you can still lose, everyone will be punished, don't look at it, including you."

Linton pointed to Jeff at the back, and then continued: "Everyone is there, let's go!"

"I can only do it." Gajeel said, "Go!"

Speaking of which, Gajeel directly rushed up the stairs, Yalan happily followed the second one, of course he still carried Wendy, and Linton followed Yalan behind, and Jeff walked in the end with no interest.

The road to the labyrinth in the sky is still very long, let alone hundreds of steps.Even so, there is no difficulty for the mage.Linton looked at Yalan. She could keep up with Gajeel while holding Wendy in her arms, walking hundreds of stairs without taking a breath.Of course, this is also normal. Although Yalan is a magician, she has drank the advanced genetic potion provided by Linton, and her physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary swordsmen. In fact, in terms of combat power alone, She is stronger without magic.

Of course, Linton and Jeff in the back were even less stressed. Their movements looked like they were just walking normally, but it didn’t take much time to keep up with the two in front. After a few minutes, they We have come to the gate of the maze.

Looking inside, the world inside this ball is like a psychedelic world in a dream, with all kinds of fragmented roads, all kinds of strange rooms and walls, and even some can't tell the upper and lower. This is indeed a real world. The maze is still the kind of maze that is too complicated to know how to navigate.

In this chaotic field, Gajeel, the leader, stopped unconsciously, really not knowing where to go.Yalan here also looked left and right, but didn't have a clue.

"What should I do?" Yalan looked at Linton and asked, to be honest, she was also 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.

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

"Let me take a look." Linton took the letter and read it, and it really looked like a map.Linton didn't look at the map in a hurry, but looked at Wendy over here.

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

"Tell me, are you a fake? My subordinates are obviously trash that is rare in a hundred years, and one or two of them are guys who are of no use to you. How could they be so reliable? This is unscientific!" Linton said.

"You're looking for trouble, why do you want to hire such a guy as your subordinate? What's your purpose!" Yalan yelled directly.

"I'm not useless, bastard!" Gajeel shouted after him.

"Then how do you go?" Linton asked.

"Give me the map!" Gajeel snatched the map directly, then looked at it, looked at it again, and turned to look at it again, "Damn it, what is this thing, it's not a map at all!"

"Seeing that you are such a waste, I feel relieved." Lin Dun said, patting Gajeel's shoulder earnestly.

"I'm not trash, 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, "It does seem that there are some problems, some places are not clearly marked, maybe... some parts are missing. I probably understand, this map should not be Complete, and since we have maps, other teams should also have maps. I think the organizers may want us to snatch the maps of other teams. After all, everyone is in this maze now. If we get other maps, we should Can piece together the complete map and get to the finish line."

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

"So I'm right, there is indeed a problem with this map." Gajeel said.

"What you said, no matter whether there is a problem with the map or not, someone who is really capable will always find a way to solve it, right?" Linton said and patted Jeff next to him, "I know you guys are not Reliable, don’t worry, I have found a reliable guy to carry, no matter what the situation is, I will find him.”

"Me?" Jeff asked.

"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with solving this maze," Linton said.

"It's really no problem." Zeref nodded, "If you interfere with this manifestation magic, you can easily solve this maze."

"Look, what is professionalism?" Linton said, "Aren't you ashamed?"

"No...why is Zeref in our team." Gajeel said while holding his forehead, "No matter how much I think about it, it doesn't feel right."

"Speaking of which, why does this Mr. Emperor have the time to participate in this competition?" Ya Lan asked, "It won't delay your state affairs. If there is any trouble, please don't pay attention to my husband's words."

"..." Jeff looked at Yalan in surprise, and then looked at Linton with strange eyes. Although he didn't say anything, Linton read the meaning from his eyes, which probably means "people like you How did you marry such a kind woman?"

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

"Just kidding?" Yalan was slightly taken aback.

"In his country, it's okay for the emperor to be away all day. It seems that he hasn't been back for a hundred years, and the country is still very stable. On the contrary, the emperor has no spiritual occupations that are necessary, 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 crazily delegating power." Linton said, "That is to say, he is awesome, so the cabinet will not oppose it, otherwise it would have become a parliamentary system."

"Hmm..." Seriously, Yalan can't imagine what the situation in that country is like. From her point of view, the country would collapse if she was absent for a month. What's the situation in this country where the emperor hasn't seen anyone for hundreds of years?Of course, Linton probably didn't lie to her, but she was a little curious.

"Anyway, don't worry about this, he is very free." Linton said, "Right."

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

"Huh?" Yalan was stunned again.

"Can we stop being so sad? Finally, there is some atmosphere." Linton said, "Hurry up, since you can get it done, get it done quickly."

Jeff nodded, then directly raised his right hand, pointing to a distant location.A black light flashed on his body, and then suddenly the entire maze began to vibrate.

The previously broken ground and strange walls around them suddenly started to move.Soon, these road surfaces were connected to each other, and at the same time, the walls and other things blocking the road were quickly and automatically moved away. Those who went left went left, and those who went right went right. After a while, a straight passage appeared directly on the road. In front of everyone.Although I can't see where this passage leads to now, needless to say, it is estimated that it will go directly to the end.

"Uh... that's okay too?" Gajiro looked at the passage in front of him for a long time, and couldn't help but said.

"Look, what is reliability." Linton said, "Let's go."

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

The tunnel is very safe. Although the competition system of the preliminaries is obviously for the participating teams to fight each other and seize each other's maps, it is obvious that Jeff does not want to waste time on this matter. It is estimated that when the maze was cleaned up, other teams All the people have moved out. In short, Linton and the others did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

Just keep walking like this, and soon they came to an exit marked "GOAL".There was a familiar person standing at the gate. It was the phantom of the pumpkin head I saw in the air before. I don't know whether the person in a doll costume or some kind of magical derivative.

"Congratulations to everyone who passed the preliminaries." The pumpkin head puppet here said to several people.

"I always feel, why didn't I do it." Gajiru couldn't help but said, and Yalan who was beside him nodded.

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

"Hmm..." Yalan nodded when he heard that it was an individual competition.

"That's how we came here, probably the first one." Gajeel said.

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

"Huh?" Even Linton was stunned this time, "Isn't it, our side is the same as the cheating ones, and there are faster ones than the cheating ones?"

"Well, there is indeed a group that has passed here." The pumpkin head puppet said, "It's the team from the Sword Bite Tiger Guild."

"Sword Bite Tiger, I have heard of them." Gajiru said, "I heard that during the few years we were away, this Sword Bite Tiger guild has always been the strongest guild in the entire kingdom. Over the past month, I have heard their names many times."

"The strongest guild again? The ghost was the last one to say that..." Linton said.
