Maze Fan: I opened a buffet in the maze

"..." The female elf was very surprised. She didn't expect Fan Wei to agree so readily.

Untying one of her bound hands, she asked Fan Wei to write down the secret order and hand it to her, then she walked to the portal terminal and input it.

The sound of the command being passed and the portal restarting made the female elf smile, "Very good, isn't this the right way to cooperate? There won't be so many conflicts between us."

"Then could the respected lady please fulfill your promise?" Fan Wei still smiled.

The leader pondered for a moment and made a gesture. The other followers then took out remote control devices, turned on the voice system, and issued instructions to adventurers in various parts of the ruins.

Everyone in the team who were fighting hard were stunned when they heard the news.

But they were in a desperate situation and could only follow the prompts and immediately run to the nearest hidden elevator.

Looking at the adventurers gradually gathering on the video screen, the female elf said, "Keep an eye on these two people. Come with me into the portal and go to the laboratory of the High Scholar."

They stepped into the light gate, and Fan Wei looked at his followers who were pointing beam weapons at him with a leisurely expression.

"Hey, friends, why are you wearing such ugly clothes and masks? Are you trying to create some atmosphere through cosplay?" He also imitated the adventurer's unruly relaxation.

"...It's a protective exosuit."

Unexpectedly, a follower actually answered. Although he didn't know what cosplay was, he could understand the first half of the sentence, "It is used to delay the time of being assimilated by the great substance."

"Yes, yes."

Lying on the ground with his face turned to the other side, Wo Kane said, "After they merged with that great thing, they will begin to corrupt in a few days. Their minds will become abnormal, crazy and bloodthirsty."

"If left alone, the body will continue to mutate into a monster. The only solution is to keep replacing it."

"Shut up, you idiot." The follower kicked Vo Kane. "If you hadn't been lucky enough to hide in the 'Parallel Lines' device, you would have turned into a pile of mud."

After being kicked, the brother of 'Xixi Material Wei Junjie' immediately shut his mouth.

In the portal, the female elf leader walked out with a gloomy face and said coldly: "What a ruthless person! He didn't even leave us a piece of paper!"

Huh? Fan Wei looked at the adventurer. Didn't he just take away the key information? Where did all the other stuff go?

Vaughan looked away and whistled.

"Swish--" There was a slight sound of firing, and several tied-up brothers in the crowd fell down, blood gushing out from the wounds of the beams whose power was deliberately reduced.

The startled adventurer shrank back suddenly and looked at Fan Wei blankly.

"Well, they killed those guys of yours..."

"Isn't that right? Why should I bother you and want to kill me? This is too unfair!" The elder brother was dissatisfied and appealed, and saw a beam weapon pointed at his head.

"...Ahahaha, well done, well done! I've been displeased with them for a long time."

Wo Kane laughed and said, he just regretted that he didn't contribute anything!

Fan Wei was helpless in the face of a situation where he was clearly killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. When he agreed to the first condition, the female elf leader found out his weakness and knew that he would not abandon his companions.

"The 'Parallel Lines' device is valuable." The female leader stepped on her brother's head and said, "But I've had enough of you."

"We will blow up the device next. I don't know how many of you are left alive. Hmph, you are the only one in this 'mirror', right?"

"Hurry up and talk to your friend and ask him to save your life~"

Hearing this, the adventurer looked at Fan Wei with tears in his eyes, "Brother, I never asked you for anything..."

"Alright alright."

Fan Wei raised his hands in surrender, "I didn't say I don't agree. Just put forward the conditions first, and then we can talk about it properly. Don't kill people casually~"

The female elf leader retracted her beam gun and untied the restraints on the two men.

With a snap of his fingers, the ground rose up and turned into a high-tech chair, allowing her to sit down with her thighs raised.

"Killing people is helpless. I have always been a very gentle person." Showing a charming smile, the female leader said gently: "As long as you tell me where you hide the information, I can agree to any conditions you have~"

"You see, except for you, everyone else is affected by the Great Matter and can never leave this island."

"Instead of struggling in pain, why not join us and enjoy the life you have never enjoyed~ There are still many parallel line devices, enough for you to choose the people you care about."

Just at this time, the adventurers also arrived at the bottom floor one after another, and they were relieved by the safety here.

Yunxin, Yani, Xililuo and others saw Fan Wei and waved to him from afar.

Facing the conditions offered by the female elf, Fan Wei retracted his gaze and nodded rapidly, "Okay, okay! But I want to try to get my companions to leave first."

"Leave?" The female elf smiled, "How can I leave? We can't leave!"

"As long as a mirror image is formed, it means that you have been integrated into the great substance and become a part of it, except for you! You can leave if you are not split, but everyone else will die if they leave!"

"Stop having unnecessary fantasies. Hand over Master Gao's secrets and research materials. It will be good for all of us."

Fan Wei fell into silence and hesitation. Is it true that the result cannot be changed?

But he still wanted to give it a try. "I remember there is a book in the storage room over there that can answer everything. I want to try to get the answer there."

"If there's really no hope, I'll agree."

"Hmph, so naive. Just wait and see." Perhaps it was the previous cooperation that made the female elf believe it, or maybe she was sure that everything was under her control.

She stretched out her hand and waved, and soon a follower came over with a black book.

A platform rose from the ground, and when the book was opened, all that was seen were completely blank pages.

"Whatever you want to ask, we can just write it down, otherwise you will die."

Fan Wei thought about it, nodded in agreement, and asked the first question, "How to retrieve all the split 'mirrors' and put them back together?"

Upon seeing their leader's signal, the masked dependent took a pen and began writing on paper.

They have infinite bodies and their memories can be passed on, so they are not afraid of death at all. After writing a few lines quickly, ink suddenly seeped out of the paper.

"Method: Reverse the operation of the directional anchor to reduce the influence of the ***. When all the worlds shrink to the smallest range, all consciousnesses can be gathered together."

"The second step is to use the cognitive calibrator to synchronize cognitive differences. After all world lines overlap, turn off the directional anchor before splitting again to complete the unification."

There is hope for a return to normalcy!

The answer in the black book suddenly enlightened Fan Wei, and he asked hurriedly, "Is this operation dangerous?"

The follower continued to write, and this time, as soon as he finished writing, he fell down without a sound and died instantly. The black notebook oozed even darker ink, as if it had had a full meal.

"Yes. If an individual dies in any world line, he or she will die at the same moment of returning. This cannot be changed."

"Then how many people have died? How many people haven't died?!"

Another dependent came up to help Fan Wei write, and after another unexpected death, the black book gave the answer.

"Currently, 29 people have died completely on the island, 141 people are in danger of death, and 1 person has not died."

There is no doubt that Fan Wei is the only one who has not died. All other people have lost their lives at least once. This result is more or less expected, but also despairing.

"Is it okay?" the female elf leader asked lazily, "Is it time to accept reality?"

Taking a deep breath, Fan Wei raised his finger with a determined look on his face.

"I have one last question."

"Okay, the last ten are all fine, but reality is reality and it cannot be changed." He had experimented with various items before, and over thousands of years, his relatives had all accepted their fate.

But Fan Wei's questions still made them feel complicated. Freedom... is always something that those who cannot get it yearn for.

"My last question is, is it possible to reverse the fate of death? Even if it is a hypothetical possibility!"

A follower wrote, and the black book paused this time.

Then the ink writing seeped out again...
