Chapter 42

Predictable Choice

Alabyrinth was a labyrinth—no big way to really change that. Minaga hadn’t tried, either, as they once more found themselves walking through winding hallways of mist, following after Jake, who had a nice mental map in his head. The difference this time around was that there was a “correct” way right off the bat, with no rooms or anything to look for.

Instead, they just had to pass through a pretty big labyrinth to reach a gate at the end, but based on how long it would take to reach the gate, this could not be the entire floor. They also had at least three rooms to clear with difficulty ratings attached. The only challenge on this floor so far was the occasional trap, which they could have some fun with. Some of these varied traps were even placed on the fastest path to the finish.

Some were good-old spike traps, some released mana bolts from the walls, and a few even summoned enemies they had to fight. The fights and traps were all made quite a lot harder to deal with by the mist, but they still easily managed and moved forward quickly—or as quickly as one could with the mist limiting their movement speed.

“This is quite similar to what we have done before,” the Sword Saint said, voicing his thoughts.

“Ree!” Sylphie complained as she flew alongside them.

Jake shrugged. “Yeah, pretty damn similar, but we will reach the gate in just a bit, so maybe something will change then.”

Soon, they did indeed reach the first gate. It had taken them nearly two and a half hours to get there due to the traps while taking the fastest route, so he guessed this floor would be quite a pain for parties without what was essentially maphack.

A few minutes later, they turned the final corner and saw the gate before them. This gate was rather different from those prior. On the other side of it, Jake saw an empty void, and on either side were two large runes—four total—that all lit up. Jake scanned them and quickly got the gist of it.

1. Puzzle (Easy)

2. Combat (Medium)

3. Crafting (Easy)

4. Random (Easy)

“We get to choose the challenge room type and the difficulty,” Jake noted as he looked over the four options.

“Not much choice when one considers the bonus objective,” the Fallen King said.

“True.” Jake nodded. “Now, how do we pick…”

It took minimal figuring out before they discovered that three of them just had to infuse energy or touch one of the marks at once. They naturally activated the second option to do a little combat.

Once they activated it, the entire gate began to glow, and as Jake released another pulse, he saw a massive room appear on the other side. It extended even beyond his Pulse of Perception, meaning it had to be at least three hundred kilometers long. He could see that it had a width of around two hundred kilometers, though.

When the gate opened, they walked through the usual fog gate, and Jake felt the pleasant wind hit him.
