Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"That's it."

Kabul was noncommittal about Fujimaru Ritsuka's answer, but naturally moved to another topic:

"Do you know what a maze is?"

"Um……"

The mazes in this world are divided into two types: [natural mazes] and [artificial mazes]. Essentially, they are abnormal environments that are connected to a different dimension somewhere and transformed by the magic power seeping from the different dimensions. The differences between the two The difference lies in whether there is human intervention.

The Golden Kingdom maze they are in now is a typical [artificial maze]. Its most significant feature is that [artificial mazes] often have a [maze master] who can freely design and modify the rules of the maze. , possesses the highest authority of the maze.

The situation in the [Natural Labyrinth] is much simpler. It can be regarded as a sudden area rich in magic power, and there will be no such rule as 'can be resurrected even after death'.

Therefore, when people mention mazes, they generally refer to [artificial mazes].

This is the information Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others learned about the maze, but judging from Kabul's meaning, the other party probably didn't want to ask them such basic knowledge.

So, Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head again. Seeing this, Kabul asked and answered:

"There is no doubt that mazes are a disaster to this world!"

He made a decisive conclusion and his eyes became serious.

Because each [Lord of the Labyrinth] has different races, thoughts, personalities, etc., according to common sense, there should be various trends in the labyrinth.

However, the reality is that all the mazes have amazing things in common, including a large number of gold and silver treasures, magic that can be revived after death, and various rare monsters... without exception, they all seem to attract people. Come for an adventure.

Next, with the continuous influx of adventurers, a large number of treasures were discovered, and the surrounding areas began to gradually become prosperous, and then further attracted more people to explore. This is the situation on this island now.

Kabul's tone paused, and then he said in a deep voice:

"It might be wonderful if everything ended here, but it's not."

Although maze researchers have not yet figured out the reason, a large number of examples show that mazes also grow, and as the number of adventurers increases, the power of the maze will become more and more powerful.

When the population in and around the maze reaches its peak, the power accumulated in the maze will completely explode. Powerful monsters that originally only moved in the depths of the maze will suddenly start to multiply crazily, all the way to the shallow areas, and finally break out. The maze, slaughtering all life on the ground!

"Eh?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu were a little surprised. They didn't expect that the maze in this world could have such a dangerous side.

However, Matthew was a little confused and said:

"But why do the masters of the labyrinth do this in unison?"

"have no idea."

Kabul shook his head and continued:

"But what is certain is that the state of this maze has become increasingly dangerous. No one knows when disaster will strike."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said:

"Then if we seal the maze now, can we prevent the disaster from happening?"

"Maybe, but it's hard to do."

In the six years since the labyrinth was discovered, countless people have become rich overnight, and the villages have become extremely prosperous. Even the ports leading here have developed as a result. Compared with the disaster that will happen without knowing when, people are obviously He cares more about the immediate benefits and is intoxicated and unwilling to let go.

Not only that, because the cycle from the discovery of the maze to the outbreak of disaster lasts for several years or even ten years, and it is difficult to find survivors after the disaster breaks out, resulting in not many people witnessing the disaster with their own eyes, and many people even have no experience at all. He didn't believe that any disaster would break out, thinking it was just a rumor spread by vested interests.

"In this case, indeed..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his cheek and felt that things were a bit difficult to handle.

"But apart from that, there is actually another way - that is to defeat the [Lord of the Labyrinth]."

Having said this, Kabul introduced himself again:

"I was a survivor of one of the maze disasters, so I know the dangers of the maze."

"My team and I are now exploring the maze with the goal of defeating the mad magician. We all hope to prevent this disaster from happening."

"I see."

The two of them suddenly understood, and after hearing that the disaster could be prevented by defeating the crazy magician, Fujimaru Ritsuka also felt confident and had one more reason to meet him.

…

…

After explaining the situation of the maze to the other party, Kabul left with the team without saying anything more.

"Kabul talked a lot today."

On the way back, Bellmick put his hands on the back of his head and teased:

"However, since you showed your true feelings to them just now, I thought you would invite them to join our team."

Daiya smiled and said:

"If it's them, I agree."

Not only her, but other members also agreed.

Although they have never seen Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu with their own eyes, there is no doubt about their strength since they can move around the fourth underground floor so easily.

Not only that, the other party helped them twice in succession, and even wanted to give them some supplies before leaving. There was no arrogance during the conversation. No one would dislike such a kind and kind person.

Then, Holm said helplessly:

"But since they are so powerful, even if we want to recruit them, they probably won't agree, right?"

"You can't say that,"

Kabul smiled and said:

"No matter how powerful a person is, there will always be things he is not good at. This is the meaning of forming a team."

Bellmick laughed and said:

"I know this. It's just like you are very good at dealing with humans and humanoid monsters, but you are completely powerless against other monsters."

"yes."

Kabul smiled helplessly:

"That's why I need everyone's help even more."

Hearing this, everyone smiled knowingly, and then Lin Xia asked again:

"In that case, why didn't you tell them just now?"

"Of course it was the wrong timing."

They had just experienced two team annihilations, and both times they were saved by the other party. Under those circumstances, if they invited the other party, no matter what they thought, they would only be rejected.

Kabul smiled and said:

"So I just leave a good impression on the other party first. When they experience a failure and return to the ground to recruit teammates, they will think of us immediately."

"It just so happened that we had agreed to invite them to dinner before. When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to invite them, and there should be no problem."

"It's scary. Why is this person so full of calculations?"

Bellmic hugged Xiao Hei tremblingly and looked very scared. Lin Xia also sighed and said:

"It's kind of disgusting to think that this guy has all this stuff in his head."

But in fact, they are actually used to it. Although the other party is indeed very deep, he is actually quite good and will never hide his situation in front of them, so they choose to follow him and support him in defeating Crazy magician, get everything in the maze.

Kabul didn't care about the comments of his companions and said with a smile:

"Anyway, let's return to the ground first."
