Great, we're doomed now!

boom!!!

It was as if Thor's hammer was constantly pounding the earth. The soft soil and hard rocks mixed together, rippling like a drumhead. Everyone's legs went weak, and they bent over in panic, opening their arms and instinctively looking for something to grab onto.

Wow!

Countless birds took flight in fright, and the sky above the island seemed to be shrouded in moving dark clouds. For a moment, the whole world became noisy, and Leos and the others felt their teeth vibrating slightly, their mouths filled with the unpleasant feeling of biting into grit.

"Earthquake?!"

"Everyone, don't panic!"

"what happened?"

...After a long while, no further tremors were heard. Although the birds had not yet landed, people gradually calmed down, looking around anxiously, unsure of what to say.

"...Could it be that you, Ye Shou, did this?"

Marushir reacted quickly, asking incredulously, "What exactly did we send to the labyrinth?"

"maze?"

The Kabul team, who had come out together, was drawn to this question. The dark-skinned guy frowned and asked, "What did you do to the maze?"

"Stay calm, we didn't do anything special, we just sent in a few 'ancient magical artifacts'."

Ye Shou waved his hand and smiled easily, "The power might be a bit too great. Let's see if we can force the Lord of the Maze out."

"...A bit too big?"

Marushir and everyone else had similar expressions, all conveying a sense of "I don't understand what you're saying at all."

"You're exaggerating when you call this?!"

Everyone was shocked by Ye Shou's illogical behavior, while Kabul noticed something else: "You mean to force the Lord of the Labyrinth out? What are you thinking? Destroying the labyrinth so recklessly, if it collapses, the whole island will be in trouble!"

He was the sole survivor of a "maze out of control" incident. His mother and all the villagers died in the mouths of the rampaging monsters, so he always hoped to use his own power to control the maze and prevent such a thing from happening again.

What Ye Shouzheng is doing is deliberately detonating the maze, which undoubtedly goes against his principles!

But Ye Shou extinguished all his anger with just one sentence, leaving him bewildered—

"So what?"

Ye Shou glanced at it coldly: "Even if the demons surge onto the surface, how many people will be left on the island?"

"Well!"

Kabul was startled and subconsciously looked to his left and right, suddenly realizing that the island was already "empty"!

Yes, it's empty!

Not to mention adventurers, even the local villagers have gone to the deserted island. After all, adventurers still need logistics and entertainment. Over the years, the island's economy and people's livelihood have long been tied to the adventurer community.

There are probably only three or four teams left on the island now, plus a few union members, and I don't know if there are even thirty people in total!

"What would happen if the maze collapsed and there weren't enough nutrients outside?"

"...The Lord of the Labyrinth must use his own power to sustain the monsters' consumption." Kabul suddenly realized. "You want to lure and kill a berserk mage on the ground? That's too risky!"

"Is there?"

"That mage is quite extraordinary. I've never seen such powerful magic before. He can easily change the terrain without chanting or magic circles... with just the likes of us?"

"That's enough." Ye Shou's calm yet confident words left Kabul speechless.

The dark-skinned guy has a special skill: he's good at observing people. Like a psychologist, he can judge whether someone is lying by looking at their micro-expressions and tone of voice... In his opinion, Ye Shou is not lying at all!

How could he be so certain? Is he really that sure?!

—Kabur swallowed hard, but his heart couldn't help but leap with joy.

So that's how it is... The treasure on that deserted island was probably also created by this person, just to clear the area before doing his job!

They even went so far as to buy the island for this reason...

Great!

He is far more proactive than I am; he really has the potential to suppress the maze!

Kabul's long-cherished wish is to stop the maze from going out of control and prevent the tragedy of his childhood from happening again, but he has limited abilities and has always struggled to find a solution... Now, after seeing Ye Shou and being shocked by his audacity, he suddenly feels an urge to cooperate with him to complete this great task!

"Lin! We're staying too!"

"...Since you put it that way..."

The long-haired female mage in the group hesitated: "But there's no guarantee that we can force out the Lord of the Labyrinth, is there?"

"Yes, that's true."

Ye Shou listened attentively for a while and, finding no disturbance at the entrance to the maze, turned around, shrugged, and spread his hands.

"The other party has a good tolerance... Of course, it's also possible that they need to clean up the mess and can't spare the time to retaliate."

"So...should we wait?"

"Of course, we're not just waiting around."

Ye Shou checked the time and smiled as he said to everyone, "If we wait another seven or eight hours, even if the enemy doesn't come out to fight, they should have almost finished repairing the maze—then we'll blow it up again."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Are you a demon?!

-

The mad magician "Hissl" had more patience than Ye Shou had imagined. In the following days, Ye Shou persistently and generously sent him warmth from another world. The labyrinth he had painstakingly rebuilt was destroyed irrationally every now and then.

Physical damage is secondary; the entire ecosystem of a single layer will collapse under the influence of the cloud explosive. The maze is a very complex system that exists holistically from top to bottom, and the collapse of one layer will affect the entire maze.

So even if Marushir and Farin can only teleport to the first three floors, Hissl can't hide in the deepest part and relax. He has to come out frequently to clean up the mess... and then get blown up again!

This tactic of exhausting the enemy is simple and effective. Even a ruthless man like Cao Cao was driven to a mental breakdown by Zhuge Liang, not to mention that Hissl himself had a bit of mania.

But surprisingly, he actually endured it for three days!

Just as Ye Shou was about to run out of the cloud explosives he had prepared and began to worry, the berserk mage finally couldn't hold back any longer, and a large number of monsters swarmed out of the entrance!

Just then, a magnificent elven sailboat docked at the port, and an advance team of eight people disembarked.

They were initially puzzled by the lack of human presence, but their expressions changed drastically upon hearing the monster's voice. Thinking they were too late, they disregarded diplomatic concerns, summoned their main force, and rushed towards the scene of the commotion.

The leader was a one-eyed, melancholic, sickly gray-haired male elf. His face, which should have been quite handsome, was full of hostility and gloom, giving people a feeling that strangers should not approach him.

But he was clearly trusted by his teammates, and everyone followed closely behind him—even though this guy had no sense of direction.

"Captain! It's over here! The magical reaction is coming from this direction!"

"..."

Mislen changed direction at the suggestion of her teammates, and sure enough, she soon encountered an army of monsters.

A group of walking mushrooms the size of houses, and a giant scorpion the size of a lion or tiger!

"This number... Has the Lord of the Labyrinth gone mad?"

"..."

Unlike his astonished teammates, Mislen showed no emotion and didn't draw any weapons, charging towards the ferocious giant scorpion with his bare hands.

With a nimble leap and somersault, he dodged the attack and simultaneously placed his hand on the monster—

Swish!

The giant scorpion suddenly vanished, replaced by a rock the size of itself!

—Transfer magic!

Swapping the positions of two objects in space is a branch of teleportation magic!

And to be able to use it as easily as Mislen, without relying on any auxiliary tools... is simply astonishing.

The members of 【Canary】each possess a unique skill, but none of them harbored any resentment towards Mislen. Seeing this scene, they were all invigorated.

"Is it...you...?"

Just then, a voice that seemed to emerge from the depths of hell, the bottom of the underworld, or the abyss of despair sent chills down the spines of all the elves.

"Ok?"

Mislen looked up and saw an elf on the three- or four-story-high mushroom-shaped head. The elf was dressed in tattered clothes, had messy hair, dark circles under his eyes that looked like greasepaint, and burn marks all over his body.

The once brown skin is now covered with faint marks... that's the result of repeated use of healing magic, but it still can't be completely removed.

—You usually only see people like Mislen in gladiatorial arenas.

No, compared to the torment the elf before us is suffering, even a hundred-year-old hero gladiator is nothing!

Is that you?

"Ok?"

Faced with Hissl's question, the captain asked in confusion: "...Do we know each other?"

"It's you... teleportation magic..."

Hisl clutched the golden grimoire in one hand—he dared not let the book out of his grasp these days, for he did not know when he might be suddenly blown up by a thunderbolt or suffocate from lack of oxygen.

With his other hand, he fiercely gripped his face, scratching out horrifying bloody marks as if venting his anger.

"Teleportation magic! Is that you...?"

"What exactly are you talking about?"

"It's you, you bastard! Aa ...

Hissl's eyes were vacant, his expression broken: "I...I...am...going...to...kill...you!!!"

"...?"

Chapter 77 A Unique Mindset (Physics)!

Hey! Stop fighting!

Looking down from his vantage point at the chaotic battlefield, Ye Shou's face was filled with anxiety: "What bad luck! These elves are so unlucky. Why did they have to run into the Lord of the Labyrinth? Sigh!"
