Maze Fan: I opened a buffet in the maze

(It feels a bit challenging, but I will try my best to sort it out, and hope to make the story more exciting.)

where? where?

Fan Wei was extremely confused. Logically speaking, under the influence of the tower master's magic, he should not be unable to see things in other people's "world" due to different "cognition".

But there was nothing at the place Yani pointed to!

"Fan, help me..." The usually proud girl looked extremely frightened and tightly grasped Fan Wei's hand, "It's coming towards me, it's looking at me, all eyes are looking at me!"

Boom! Fan Wei sensed the urgency of the situation and immediately drew his sword to release a holy light attack!

The trees ahead were destroyed by the divine light, leaving a large area of ​​flat ground, but it did not relieve Yani's panic at all! She was shaking violently all over, and suddenly stopped, looking straight ahead.

"Damn it!" Fan Wei found that even the holy light had no effect. Wasn't it said that the power of the Three Lives Goddess could resist it?

In a flash, he grasped Yani's hand, stared at her and shouted hurriedly: "There is no monster at all!"

The girl turned her head, but the light in her eyes suddenly disappeared. Her whole body went limp, and she fell silently into Fan Wei's arms, and died just like that.

“Yani!!”

In the silence of fear and shock, Roddy let out a roar that was almost a whine. He rushed forward, hugged his sister, and shook her body helplessly.

Everyone was at a loss. Fan Wei took a deep breath and looked at the other Yani with some trembling.

"Van, that monster...is that monster gone?"

At the critical moment, Fan Wei took the initiative to deepen the "cognitive" conflict, splitting Yani into two, but this could not change the outcome of one of her death.

My heart is very confused, extremely confused!

The body of the captain he had been with day and night was right in front of him. Fan Wei couldn't help but wonder, was the girl he was holding now the real her?

"We are safe...for now..."

Forcefully suppressing his uneasiness and encouraging the captain who was still in shock, Fan Wei felt a headache as he looked at the multiple Rodys and Normas that were created because of her cognitive conflicts.

In the teammates' initial understanding, Yani had already died in front of them.

But in the eyes of the newly appeared Yani, she was not dead. The conflict between the two ideas created a team in which Yani was dead, and a team in which the captain was still there.

"Roddy, calm down."

Squatting down and looking at Roddy who was completely hopeless and could not hear anything, Fan Wei asked the puppet Mo Ling to help him perform "Telepathic Transmission" and told the situation to his teammates.

"What? Yani is not dead!" Rody seemed to have grasped hope, and begged with tears in his eyes, "Fan, please, save her!"

"In this situation, I don't know how to start." Fan Wei was also at a loss. In his sight, Yani was fine and was still describing to him the monster that she seemed to have seen but had no impression of.

"But at least there is hope."

Just as the tower master said, the 'present' and the 'future' are dead, but the captain of the 'past' is still alive. Can there be a miracle to reverse all this?

Thoughts were swirling in his mind, and Fan Wei was facing more than just the Baimu team.

The several times the number of teammates made communication chaotic.

"Please accept my condolences." Shirilo walked closer and said, feeling a little sympathy for the girl who had just communicated and died.

But in Fan Wei's eyes, the other Shirilo had already walked away with some people, and was still calling him, because there was no need to stop the "world line" where Yani was not dead.

In the eyes of everyone 'here', he was the only one who suddenly stopped and stood with his teammates.

He talked to himself like a madman and attacked the woods.

Fan Wei suddenly realized his own powerlessness. The mixture of reality and illusion made him feel more panic-stricken and helpless than simple difficulties.

This influence has exceeded the limits of what ordinary people can accept!

"Thank you." He could only rely on the 'heart-to-heart' dialogue to respond to Shirilo.

Otherwise no one can tell who he is talking to.

After thinking for a long time, Fan Wei finally made up his mind and stood up, shouting: "Everyone, act according to your own plans. We will meet at the end of the ruins!"

People must be separated! At least not tangled together like a ball of wool!

Adding chaos to the situation will only make it worse, even though doing so will most likely lead to very bad consequences, but Fan Wei accepted it sadly.

...He might not be able to save everyone.

The huge and overlapping crowds walked away, and the only ones left were Shirilo, a team of guild adventurers, and the Baimu team that was several times larger.

"To make a long story short, the situation on this island is far beyond the comprehension of ordinary people."

In a short period of time, Fan Wei became the backbone of the group. He took a deep breath and sorted out the situation bit by bit. "From now on, our goal is to escape safely!"

"But we can't just leave. We have to at least resolve this weird split."

"I think the wish gem may be a breakthrough, and so is Mr. Vo Kane."

If Mr. Wo Kane is really alive and has lived on this island for so many years, he should know a lot. But Fan Wei is doubting whether he is a normal living person?

"Okay!" The sad Roddy wiped his tears and gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, at least, I hope Yani is okay!"

Several Bernoulli uncles either looked blank or regretful, "We shouldn't have come here, it's all because of me...I..."

"I won't say anything discouraging." He stood up and straightened his back. Since he was already in a desperate situation, Fan Wei decided to go all out. "Ms. Shiri Luo, does the guild have any other records about this place?"

"We can't see a lot of information, and you should know more secrets."

Although Shirilo was strong and arrogant, she could not say anything in this situation. She thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"In fact, the purpose of the guild coming here is to seek an answer - why the 'Ghost Island' is fixed in this location."

Fan Wei was stunned and realized that he had overlooked a problem.

The maze changes every year! The map is also surveyed once a year, but according to the data from Wo Kane a few years ago, the island can still be found on the map!

It doesn't change with the maze?

"Yes, that's the reason. It would be best if Mr. Kane and the illusory treasure can be found, but it won't have much of an impact if they can't be found." Shirilo explained it very clearly.

“But if we could figure out how to fix the land in the maze, that would be huge!”

“We no longer need to spend a lot of energy on repeated development every year, and we can also move more people into the maze, which will completely change the landscape of maze exploration!”

“This is the greatest value for the upper echelons.”

It was this ambition to completely control the maze that prompted the guild to carry out this action, but judging from the reality, the current situation on Ghost Island is worse than being fixed.

"Really..."

Fan Wei felt that they were really ignorant and fearless, lining up to come in and seek death. How did Mr. Wo Kane survive on the island?

Or, there are no trapped explorers at all...

...It is this island that lures its prey here.

————————————————I am the dividing line—————————————————

It got dark faster than expected. When it was completely dark around us, we stopped for a while.

It wasn't because he had consumed a lot of energy or couldn't see the road clearly, he was just hungry. People have to have a last meal on the road, no matter how critical the situation is, he can't skip a meal.

We happened to pass by an old ruin surrounded by trees and vines.

After simply clearing the plants and driving away snakes, rats, insects and ants, many teams made fires and set up camp here.

"I'll make some hot food for everyone." Fan Wei said as he put down his backpack and set up the pot.

Although we had some portable dry food, the cold and hard food didn't taste very good, so we could only swallow it whole to fill our stomachs.

He saw that everyone's faces were very solemn. Many people were worried and even suspicious. At this time, making something delicious that could comfort them was more important than obtaining nutrition itself!

When his consciousness probed into the storage space, Fan Wei saw the body of Yani, who was dead, just stored there quietly.

Only then did his face darken. Even though there was a lively Yani outside, the corpse reminded him that an important companion had embarked on the road to death.

If a solution to the problem cannot be found smoothly, or even if there is a solution, it cannot bring back the souls that have already died...

That might be a farewell forever.

Now she could only be thankful that she had not told Irene and Clara about the expedition. Lian Yunxin and Fan Wei didn't want her to come, but the girl was very heroic and determined.

Sometimes one wrong step can lead to two different lives.

Fan Wei knew that he was special, but he never thought that he would not die. The system could help him become stronger, but he also had to follow the standards it set.

Apart from the complaints during settlement and skill introduction, it has never shown its human side.

Compared to the little assistants in many fantasy works, his system is more like a god with strict laws, just wrapping himself in the expression of language.

Here on this strange and terrifying island, everyone is busy taking care of themselves, and I'm afraid that 'God' cannot give the expected response.

The only one you can rely on is yourself.

"Fan." The voice from his heart called Fan Wei out of his confusion.

Yani sat by the fire, looking up at him calmly. The voice in her heart whispered softly, "Tell me the truth... am I hopeless?"

"How could it be, there is still hope!"

He quickly rejected it, saying something he was not sure about. Fan Wei just wanted to give the captain more positive emotions.

"Huh, I can see that." The girl put her face on her arms folded on her knees, looked sideways at the flames, and smiled carefreely, "This 'hope' is actually very slim, right?"

"Don't worry, I can accept it. Although it's a pity, I thought about this day when I set out on the adventurer's path."

Yani lowered her eyes.

"Resurrection may not always be useful. Roddy and I agreed that if we really encounter a situation where we have no other options, we will give up on each other and learn to live well on our own."

In the flickering firelight, her eyes were sparkling and a tear slowly fell.

"I am now worried that he will not keep his end of the bargain."

"Although I can't see it, but when I hear you say it, I know there is a 'world' where I am dead. Rody, Norma, Uncle Bernoulli, Miss Yunxin, and Uncle Westan in that world should all be sad for me."

"This me may have given them false hope, but sometimes it might be okay to be a little cruel."

"Help me tell that Rody that he must give up when it's time to give up and must protect himself."

"Also, don't let him cry all the time. Tell him that I have saved some money to pay him back. If there is a girl who likes him, let him get married early and be a good pastor. Don't take any more risks."

The voice of mumbling came in his heart, making Fan Wei fall into silence.

Roddy was very perceptive. When he saw his sister crying, he thought she was scared, so he came up to her and comforted her in a soft voice.

The other Rody just sat there, staring at the fire, thinking about something. He could no longer see his living sister. It was like he had lost the sunshine and was no longer his usual gentleness and brilliance.

"Don't worry, I'm always very steady when doing things."

Taking a deep breath and expressing his true feelings, Fan Wei could only focus on cutting vegetables and cooking, not letting himself think about anything else.

Well, there is still a lot of dragon meat barbecue pork. Sweet things can quickly restore the mood and boost morale, so we pair it with hot bread as the staple food.

Then make some soup, stewing beef and radish to make it richer but still sweet, warming both the heart and the stomach.

Because everyone has a big appetite, he hopes to make the side dishes richer.

Subconsciously looking around, Fan Wei saw that on the wall where the roof was missing, there were many flat egg-shaped objects, each the size of a fist, with their tongues slightly open.

"Wall shell?"

He cut one off with a knife, weighed it, and hesitated whether to use it as a dish.

"It's a harmless little monster."

Seeing Fan Wei's actions, Shirilo thought he was curious, so he explained: "They like to gather in groups on the walls of the ruins."

"My former teammate told me that this is something condensed from the thoughts of the residents of the ancient civilization."

"They will stay at home, waiting for the return of civilization or their families." The Dragonborn lady's eyes were a little empty, and it was unknown what she was thinking about.

Fan Wei thought about it and nodded, "It's a very romantic way of saying it."

Also suitable for pot...

Although it is full of humanistic atmosphere, he feels that it is just that the environment inside the ruins is suitable for the survival of such monsters, and they reproduce and thrive there.

Unable to hold back his desire to cook, Fan Wei asked the tower master puppet on his shoulder with his mind voice, "Is it okay to eat some of the monsters here?"

"No." Little Mo Ling shook his head, "Monsters don't have souls, so they won't be affected by strange powers."

Without a soul, there is no cognition. Being as ignorant and unconscious as a stone is actually very safe.

Fan Wei felt relieved, set up a frying pan, collected the huge wall clams, scraped and washed them clean, and cooked them with cooking wine. After all the wall clams had opened, he simply added some ingredients and stir-fried them. The fried wall clams with a fresh and sweet aroma were ready.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." Fan Wei raised his voice and said to everyone, then he put the plates on the table and asked them to serve themselves.

Something very interesting happens at this time. One plate can be taken by several people at the same time. They seem to create multiple sets of tableware out of nothing and put food on them.

This made Fan Wei even more surprised at this 'split'!

Under the influence of subjective consciousness, a piece of matter can be divided into infinitely many parts?! Isn't that equivalent to a perpetual motion machine?

I picked up a plate and shared my discovery with the tower master, but she shook her head. "It may be true for you, but not for us."

"Because we cannot see superfluous things, the ether isolation can only ensure that I am not disturbed by this strange force, so that I can see the 'most real' things."

"Using your explanation, I am the equivalent of standing outside of all the split 'worlds', watching the beginning of the thread."

"The split things at the back don't exist for me. I can only guess based on your language."

"So what's really strange is that you can both isolate the influence and interact with the results of the influence, which is a very incredible thing."

The puppet tower master's unchanged expression and voice made Fan Wei unable to detect any surprise...

But the truth is indeed a bit unbelievable. What makes me special?

"There is only one explanation." The puppet looked at Fan Wei with dull eyes, "Infinite, you have infinite power! Just like the two things in the legend."

"One is infinite desire, the other is boundless love."
