Secret Dice

Chapter 526 Rest Area

In order to obtain this key information, Luo Jun did not hesitate to use a dice, and finally succeeded in prying out the news about the hotel from the businessman.

"Although this place is branded as a hotel, it should actually be called a rest area..." the businessman said: "Although I have never been there, I heard that it can provide almost all forms of leisure and entertainment, where you can relax and unwind. For guests, It’s really a good place for us.”

"But the problem is that this kind of rest area does not appear at all times. According to my experience, guests are only likely to encounter a rest area when they have been without supplies for a long time and are in poor physical and mental condition. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a guaranteed benefit for the desperate guests.”

"No wonder we haven't encountered one for so long..." Luo Jun glanced at the mountains of various supplies in his smart backpack. He has been in the maze for more than a month and dare not say anything else. At least he has never made anyone hungry. abdomen. Two days ago, Sun Xiaowei complained that the food was too good and she felt fat...

"If you want to encounter the rest area, do you have to throw away all the supplies and walk hungry for a few days in the maze?" Ma Qiao frowned.

"That's not necessarily possible." Mao Xintong shook her head: "It's just a chance. If we don't, we'll be in trouble."

Luo Jun frowned. It was indeed too risky to abandon the supplies. He looked at the merchant: "Is there any other way to find the rest area?"

"Well..." Under the effect of the dice, the businessman hesitated and finally spat out.

"When supplies are abundant, it is definitely impossible to encounter the rest area, but one situation cannot be ruled out. That is, someone who has been hungry for several days and is in a very bad condition encounters the rest area. Then at least for this person The rest area will always be there before you leave. If by chance...I mean by chance, someone else passes by and sees the rest area, they can also go in..."

"Oh?" Luo Jun's eyes lit up: "Then there should be a detection range in the rest area, right? If a person who has been hungry for a long time is followed by others with sufficient supplies ten meters behind him, the rest area will not appear, right? ?”

The businessman glanced at Luo Jun helplessly: "Guest, you are really smart... Of course, the rest area will also search whether there are any unrelated people nearby who do not meet the entry conditions. You have also used various props in the maze. The general detection range, It’s basically the same…”

"One kilometer..." Luo Jun narrowed his eyes.

"That's not what I said..." The businessman waved his hands repeatedly.

"I understand..." Luo Jun nodded and continued to ask: "Then if a lone person is tired, hungry, unable to walk, and rests in place, will the rest area suddenly appear in front of him?"

"This is impossible." The businessman shook his head and said: "Even if the rest area appears, it will only be refreshed to a place far away from people, and it will not appear in an area where people pass by in a short period of time, so it is best to keep exploring. It's relatively easy to encounter, and the first one to find the rest area can only be the one who is hungry enough..."

Is that so... It seems that the tactic of having one person stay in place as a bait while others keep circling around him to find a resting area will not work...

After getting this information, Luo Jun took advantage of the time when it was almost zero and exchanged two more maps before leaving.

"This is the situation now." Luo Jun explained to others: "We need a volunteer who can act alone without supplies and away from the large army. When he is about to starve to death, he may see the rest area. ”

"But if the lone person finds the rest area, how can he contact the main force?" Ma Qiao asked.

"We still have a lot of talismans left," Mao Xintong said. Because everyone has been acting together during this period, they almost forgot about this communication tool.

"But even if there is a talisman, the terrain in the maze is so complicated, and there is no way to report the specific location." Zhuge Zi frowned.

"So I exchanged two more maps." Luo Jun said with a smile: "Those who act alone will get one, and the large group will get one. The distance between each other should be kept above one kilometer and below two kilometers. Wait until When it is necessary to determine the location, both parties can open the map, transmit the image of the map through the talisman, and stitch it together to confirm the location of both parties. "

"Similarly, if a person acting alone is in danger, they can also seek help in this way."

"This is a good idea, but the question is, how can we ensure the distance between us?" Mao Xintong asked: "We can't keep the map on."

"This can only be judged based on experience. Contact us regularly." Luo Jun shook his head: "I originally thought about making marks in the maze, but the walls and floors of the maze have self-healing functions. How long will it take to be cleaned up?”

"It seems that the person who acts alone is very important." Mr. Yuan frowned: "He must be sharp and smart enough."

Everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Luo Jun.

Luo Jun sighed. Although he was not very sure about controlling the distance, it seemed that no one was more suitable than him. He was about to take over the job when suddenly, Sun Xiaowei on the side raised her hand: "How about I do it."

"You?" Others looked at her in surprise: "Are you okay?"

"I feel looked down upon..." Sun Xiaowei pouted proudly: "I may be the only one who can mark the maze!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and created a small sign with text on it: "Turn left here!"

The others' eyes lit up when they saw it: "Yes, there is a creative sect here!"

"But you are too dangerous yourself." Mao Xintong was a little worried about this little sister: "How about I accompany you? After all, I am an insight sect and can warn of danger."

"Don't worry, Sister Mao." Sun Xiaowei said with a smile: "I am also a cultivator on my own...and I have some selfish reasons for wanting to go."

After saying that, Sun Xiaowei touched her belly: "I want to starve for a few days to lose weight..."

"Uh..." Everyone was confused, but Mao Xintong stood more firmly beside Sun Xiaowei: "Then I have to go!"

"It's okay for two people to go." Mr. Yuan nodded and said: "We have to take care of each other. In the diary, Xiao Qianzi and the four of them all met in the rest area. The number of people should not affect..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Zi suddenly appeared next to the two of them and whispered shyly: "I will come too..."

Several men looked at each other and sighed secretly, never underestimate a woman's persistence in losing weight!

Soon everyone was divided into two teams. Because they were afraid that Sun Xiaowei's energy reserves were insufficient, everyone took out all the props that could store energy and handed them to her. At the same time, Sun Xiaowei also brought the origin pointer.

In this way, based on the distance from the origin displayed on the pointer, you can roughly estimate how far you have traveled.

As for the map, in theory, with the signboards, it is basically guaranteed that the subsequent teams will follow and find the hotel. But just in case, I still brought one for them.

After everything was ready, the three girls set off first. According to the agreement, half an hour later, the remaining three followed with Ling Jian. Sure enough, after passing the first intersection, I saw the sign left by Sun Xiaowei.

In order to save energy, the sign was made very small, only the size of a mobile phone, and it stated the direction they were going and the time to leave the sign.

According to the plan, the three girls used the origin indicator to walk a straight line distance of 1.5 kilometers within half an hour. Then, when the half hour was up, they began to move forward slowly. The follow-up troops followed the signs they saw along the way and the time on them. , you can calculate the distance between the two teams in front and behind, making it easier to control the speed.

As for the signs, Sun Xiaowei would take them back after half an hour to avoid leaving too many behind and adding unnecessary burden to her vitality.

Relying on this move, everyone began to slowly explore the maze. Occasionally, they could see the remains of some monsters, which were obviously killed by the three girls in front.

It seems that it is wise not to let Sun Xiaowei explore the road alone. At least there will be someone to take care of her when she encounters danger.

In this way, three days have passed, and the three girls have not eaten or drank. Even if they are practitioners' physiques, they should not be uncomfortable...

"Isn't it about time we met?" Ma Qiao said impatiently as she picked up a sign left by Sun Xiaowei.

"It's just a chance of encountering them." Luo Jun said: "Now they should have just reached the threshold where they can encounter the rest area. If they want to find it, they still need a little luck..."

Luo Jun also thought about using dice to forcefully trigger the rest area, but the result was that the correlation was not enough.

After all, the rest area does not appear in front of you just after you turn an intersection. Even if it appears, it will be at least one kilometer away. It will take time to get there, and you will have to pass through countless intersections. There are so many choices to make here. More than one dice is not enough.

So the current situation is that we can only explore slowly and touch slowly.

Of course, the three girls didn't just walk forward stupidly. When they were exploring, they would also try their best to take a roundabout way, trying to explore an area almost as much as possible before moving on to the next place so as not to miss it. , the speed is even slower.

"It's been five days..." Mr. Yuan took the sign left by Sun Xiaowei and the sign indicating that the three of them were still exploring normally.

"It's fine if you don't eat for five days. Most people can't survive without drinking water." Ma Qiao was also a little worried: "How about we get in touch again."

In the past few days, the two parties had briefly contacted each other through talismans to report that they were safe. In the short-term impact, several girls became visibly haggard. More than thirty hours have passed since the last contact.

Luo Jun also nodded: "I hope nothing happens, Mr. Yuan, there is still more than half of the talisman paper, let's burn some more."

Mr. Yuan took out the talisman and was about to light it when suddenly the talisman vibrated and a message came from the other side.

Mr. Yuan hurriedly opened it and found an image, which looked like a magnificent door with the four characters "Endless Hotel" written on it!

"We really met!" The three cheered, and then Zhuge Zi and Mao Xintong appeared in the video. They walked into the door, while Sun Xiaowei stood outside and said to the "camera": "They went in and locked the hotel. Come on, I'll wait for you at the door. It would be best if you can find it based on my sign. If you can't find it, please contact me and open the map. "

"You're pretty good at getting along." Luo Jun smiled and said, "Let's speed up too."

The cultivators moved forward at full speed and soon followed the instructions and found Sun Xiaowei. The girl now looked pale, with sunken cheeks and chapped lips, but she was still very energetic when she saw them, and she was waving her arms vigorously.

"Thank you for your hard work, senior!" Luo Jun immediately handed over a bottle of mineral water, but Sun Xiaowei waved her hand: "You can drink whatever you want after paying for it. You should save your own things..."

"She is really a good girl who is diligent and thrifty!" Mr. Yuan also praised: "Did you say before that you were still a fan of Ye?"

When she mentioned Ye, Sun Xiaowei became more energetic: "I am the leader of the fan club, and I have done missions with him!"

"I believe that Ye would be very happy if he knew that he has such a good fan like you." Mr. Yuan nodded, and as he spoke, he glanced at Luo Jun intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hehehe, is it true?" Sun Xiaowei scratched her head in embarrassment.

"Stop chatting at the door!" Luo Jun urged: "Hurry in!"

There is a toll gate in front of the gate. As long as two thousand banknotes are put in, one person can be let through. After everyone paid the money and walked in, they were startled by a "Welcome VIP!"

The door in between is as magnificent as a palace, with a row of waiters standing on both sides, bowing politely when seeing everyone.

"Oh, in reality, I have never been in a bathing center like this!" Ma Qiao's eyes widened and he praised repeatedly.

At this time, a waiter came forward: "Dear distinguished guests, let me introduce to you the services of our Endless Hotel. We have a collection of catering, bathing, entertainment and other services here..."

While introducing, he led several people inside, introducing each project in detail. When they arrived at the dining area, they found Zhuge Zi and Mao Xintong devouring food inside.

When Sun Xiaowei saw this, she couldn't help it anymore, rushed in, poured a glass of juice and drank it.

The men were quite full and had little interest in food. Ma Qiao approached the waiter and asked in a low voice: "Are there any special services here?"

"Of course." The waiter nodded: "And in my opinion, you just need such a special service..."

Ma Qiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and Mr. Yuan coughed: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm already that old..."

"I'm not talking about you." The waiter smiled and pointed at the Lingjian held by Luo Jun behind Mr. Yuan.

Dujiao Si was too big to come in, so Luo Jun simply volunteered to carry Ling Jian. Anyway, as long as he was not injured and the replacement process would not be accelerated, he was not afraid of carrying it for a while.

"What's wrong with him?" Mr. Yuan asked curiously.

The waiter smiled and said: "This distinguished guest is obviously suffering from the confrontation between two different substances... Our Endless Hotel can alleviate his pain..."
