Sensing the danger receding, Kuro finally relaxed, and the overheated components gradually cooled down.
Until both wandering monsters had completely left, neither Kuro nor Yisi made a single sound, fearing they might attract attention.
After feeling completely safe, Kuro suddenly became curious about the maze Li Zheng had thrown out.
Why did he clearly see two wandering monsters pass by the entrance, but it was as if they didn't see them at all and just walked right past?
With this in mind, he walked alone to the entrance to take a look and discovered that what he had seen as an unobstructed passage from the inside appeared to be a wall from the outside!
One of the rules of a True Maze: the maze can have an inner and outer layer, but they must be connected.
Li Zheng had spent some time figuring out this simplified version of a double-layer maze.
The outer layer was just a half-circle; entering from point A and following the edge, one would inevitably exit from point B.
