Shi Zhimeng looked up at the tower and murmured, "It feels weird."

"What's wrong?" Chu Yu asked.

"Why do I feel like I've been here before?"

Tokieda Meng tried to capture the fleeting sense of déjà vu.

"Perhaps our memories were used when constructing the illusion?" Wan Yexi guessed, "After all, we all lost our memories in the beginning."

"That makes sense." Shi Zhimeng nodded. It was obvious that this reason was very convincing.

"We've finally got here after all the hardships. Avi should be up there." Ying breathed a sigh of relief again, somewhat tiredly.

They were racing and running for their lives, and the city was now in chaos, but the area near the high towers on the edge was surprisingly quiet.

The first member of the exploration team to arrive fired a flare, which was said to have been found in a roadside shop. It looked like fireworks when it flew into the sky.

Soon, the other members who received the signal gathered together, and they were quite fast.

Now all the members of the exploration team are under the tower. Everyone is wearing a hood and no one can see each other's face. At first glance, it seems like some mysterious organization.

"Everyone is almost here, let's go up." someone said.

They pushed open the rusty iron door. The spiral staircase inside the tower was narrow and steep, with extinguished torches in the niches.

Wan Ye Xi condensed flames and lit the torches along the way one by one. The faint warm light dispelled the moisture in the tower, and it was extremely quiet above.

Some people had already reached the top floor. They were studying the tightly closed door, and after knocking without receiving a response, they chose to force their way through.

Soon, sounds of fighting and screaming were heard from above.

"What happened?" the people below asked loudly.

Some teammates were thrown out with force and fell from the top of the tower. Those who were struggling to resist heard the voices of their teammates below and quickly passed on the known information.

"We found Ivy! But there's another monster of the same kind trying to stop us. He's very strong!"

"what!"

Another person was thrown out and fell from the top of the spiral staircase. Black smoke leaked out of his torn cloak and finally turned into a pool of black water and fell to the bottom.

"Avi is on top?" Ying was a little excited again.

But her excitement quickly wore off.

Although they couldn't see the situation on the battlefield above, their teammates were constantly being defeated and the battle could be described as brutal.

They climbed quickly following their teammates' pace and never heard the news that the enemy was defeated.

"With this terrain, we can't arrive at the same time. This is no different from sending ourselves to our deaths one by one."

Fortunately, they were a professional exploration team, and someone soon discovered the problem. They quickly made a new plan. Some of them climbed along the outer wall of the tower, trying to get more people to the summit at one time and not giving the monster any time to react.

……

The new plan of action paid off, but their side also suffered heavy losses.

It was not until Tokieda Yume and his team reached the top of the tower that the tricky monster was defeated. At this time, there were only a few members of the exploration team left. The ground on the top floor was covered with flat cloaks and black liquid. They were all their teammates.

The huge, spring-shaped monster fell in the middle, lifeless.

Looking towards the end, they saw Ivy as they wished.

She was clinging to the edge of the terrace and would fall if she stepped back a little. At this moment, she was staring at everyone with a complicated expression on her face.

"Avi, are you okay?" Ying took a few steps forward happily.

"She doesn't look injured, how strange... Why did that monster stop us from getting closer?" Wan Yexi couldn't understand.

"But anyway, this way she has been saved!" Tokizhi Meng still remembered the goals of each of them.

Together they walked towards Evie and asked about her condition.

But Ivy remained silent, still staring at them with a vigilant look.

Halfway through the journey, Wan Yexi stopped them.

"Wait a minute... Weiwei is not right." Wan Yexi lowered his voice with a complicated expression, "She is on guard."

"Oh, doesn't she know us?" Shi Zhimeng looked at the faces of the other people and suddenly realized, "We are all masked now, and she really doesn't seem to know us."

"It's not that simple."

"Xiao Wei, don't be nervous, I'm Shi Zhimeng, they are all your good friends!" Shi Zhimeng said in a light tone, trying to communicate with Ivy while taking a few steps forward.

Ivy took a step back. The fence blocked her retreat. She turned around and saw the white fog under the tower.

"Hey! Don't jump, be careful!" Shi Zhimeng was startled. She waved her hands as if she was persuading a suicidal girl.

"She has a knife in her hand. She thinks we are enemies and she doesn't seem to understand what we are saying." Wan Yexi narrowed his eyes and stared at Ivy's hand behind his back.

"Why so?"

"What should I do?"

They no longer controlled the volume of their conversation, but Ivy still looked at them with a strange look in her eyes.

"Let's bring her over first?" Chu Yu suggested.

Shi Zhimeng nodded: "That's right, it's too dangerous for her to do this. Let's sit down and talk face to face, maybe it will work."

Wan Yexi disagreed. In her impression, no one could perfectly subdue Ivy when he was on alert, but there seemed to be no other way at the moment, so she glanced at Ye Jiyan.

Ye Jiyan also did not express his opinion. He seemed to be thinking about something and was not prepared to interfere.

Seeing him like this, Wan Ye Xi also acquiesced to Shi Zhi Meng's actions.

So Shi Zhimeng rushed over.

"Is this a dream?" Ivy, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

Shi Zhimeng was stunned.

In the moment she was stunned, Ivy leaned back and decisively jumped down from the tower!

"etc?!"

Ivy's figure was submerged in layers of white mist, and then everything seemed to disappear.

……

……

"Hmm - it feels weird." Tokie Meng was a little confused. She looked up at the tower. The top was hidden in the clouds and fog, and could not be seen clearly.

"What's weird?" Wan Yexi asked.

"I feel like I've been here before. This tower looks so familiar." Shi Zhimeng pondered, but couldn't remember where she had seen a similar scene before. "What do you think?"

"It looks familiar to me, too." Ying echoed again.

"Could it be extracted from our memories?" Chu Yu guessed.

After all, they had come all the way here, and their memories had been constantly activated along the way.

This fantasy maze is really fascinating.

"That's possible." Shi Zhimeng reluctantly accepted this reason.

But at this time, Ye Jiyan on the side denied it: "No."

"Ok?"

"Unfortunately, we were indeed here, not long ago, in the last round of dreams."

Ye Jiyan spread out his hands, and phantom light floated above his palms, forming a spool with several light spots marked on it.

"This is……?"

"In the dream I marked, now..." Ye Jiyan explained, "this is the ninth cycle we have experienced."
