Chapter 164: The Indestructible Maze
"Since the Guiding Charm is useless..."
Xia Yu murmured, and looked around, trying to find possible loopholes in the maze.
However, he didn't find the loophole, but he saw the stick figure he had drawn on the wall again.
The drawing was so lifelike that he felt as if the stick figures were laughing at him.
"..."
Damn it, I didn’t expect that he would be mocked by the painting he drew. I really want to blow him up with a blasting spell.
"Oh right, the blasting spell!"
Suddenly, Xia Yu had an idea. Since he couldn't find an exit, why not just blast one open?
As the saying goes, "force can defeat skill", this is exactly what it means. No matter how skilled you are, you will eventually be defeated by pure force.
It was like a battle between the gentlest creature on earth and a centenarian. In the end, the middle-aged man in his prime defeated the 146-year-old man.
Zhi Shi, who was standing by, saw that Xia Yu seemed to have come up with a good idea, so he asked with a smile: "Xia, have you come up with a solution?"
"Of course, since we can't find the exit, why don't we just make a way out manually?"
Xia Yu raised the corner of his mouth, waved to Zhishi and said, "Stand behind me."
Hearing this, although he didn't know what Xia Yu was going to do, Zhishi still quickly walked to Xia Yu and hid behind him.
After extending his hand to protect Zhishi, Xia Yu raised his wand and pointed it at the maze wall at the farthest end.
"Flying sand and flying rocks!"
The tip of the wand lit up and a blue spark shot out from the top of the wand.
Boom——!
With a loud bang, the wall hit by the spell exploded immediately. The concentrated pressure and impact force directly caused the wall at the end to shatter.
When the smoke and dust cleared and the rubble fell, a hole about two meters in size had appeared in the seemingly indestructible light green wall.
"As long as we keep bombing like this, we'll eventually blast our way out."
After taking a look at his masterpiece, Xia Yu turned around and raised his head towards Zhishi and chuckled. This was his good idea.
"But... the wall is recovering."
Chise looked at the wall at the end, pointed quickly at the big hole that was gradually recovering, and warned.
"What the hell?!"
Xia Yu looked back in surprise. In his astonished sight, the wall that should have been blown with a big hole actually returned to its original state in an instant as if time had gone back.
The rubble on the ground returned to the wall, the gaps that were blown open were also recovering, and even the smoke and dust produced by the explosion disappeared.
If Xia Yu had not been sure that he had not used the repair spell just now, he would have thought that he had just used the "Restore to New" spell on the wall.
"Damn it, I still don't believe it!"
Looking at the wall that had returned to its original state, Xia Yu let out a light click of his tongue, pointed his wand at the wall in dissatisfaction, and spoke quickly.
"Split into pieces!"
"Dig three feet!"
"Thunderbolt explosion!"
"The house collapsed and the ground sank..."
Xia Yu cast a series of offensive spells against the wall, and continuous explosions and flames appeared frequently. Although the explosion effects produced by these spells were different, the air waves generated were similar.
The blast swept in all directions, blowing Xia Yu's hair back and even blowing off the little white hat on his head.
After casting a dozen explosion spells at the wall in one breath, he finally stopped.
It wasn't because he was tired, but because he was a little dry from chanting the spell, and he had to see what was going on first. When the smoke and dust dispersed, a deep pit with a radius of about five meters appeared at the end of the wall where he pointed his wand.
The criss-crossing light green walls had long since turned to dust, the ground at the edges was covered with cracks, and the center was charred black, like a bottomless black hole.
Seeing this scene, Xia Yu had no time to be happy before time went back again.
The rubble returned to the wall, the charred color quickly faded, and the dust in the sky returned to the ground.
In just a few seconds, the walls of the maze returned to their original state, leaving no trace of the explosion, let alone a way to slip away.
Xia Yu: "..."
What was Clow Reed thinking when he created this Clow Card? Is it necessary to be so strict?
"Xia, why don't we just follow the rules and slowly find the exit."
As Zhishi spoke, he reached out and handed over Xia Yu's hat that had just been blown off.
"I do not want!"
Xia Yu took his hat casually and held it tightly. He would not give in!
Since spells are useless, use the Clow Cards!
"Shadow, Thunder, Sword, Fight!"
“Go ahead! Tear up, smash, chop and smash these walls in front of you!”
After saying that, Xia Yu raised his hand and threw out four cards. Among all the Clow Cards he owned, only these four were attack cards, and the rest of the Clow Cards had no attack power against objects.
Upon receiving the order, the three Clow Cards, Shadow, Thunder, and Sword, immediately took action and used their own methods to destroy the wall at the end.
For a moment, shadows filled the air, lightning flashed, and sword energy overflowed, making this place look like a battlefield, a battlefield in the magical world.
Xia Yu glanced at the other Clow Cards that were making so much noise, then looked at the Dou Cards with some dissatisfaction, and asked, "Why are you still standing there? Come on."
In response to Xia Yu's question, Dou Pai pointed at himself with a puzzled look on his face.
That little expression seemed to say "What? Me?".
"Yes, it's you. What? You can't do it? Men can't say... cough, Clow Cards can't say no!" Xia Yu coughed lightly and looked at the cards steadily.
Being looked at like this, Dou Pai was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly walked to the wall beside him and made a boxing gesture.
Bang-!
He threw a powerful punch, but the wall didn't move at all.
Facing the unbroken wall, Dou Pai focused his attention and punched the same spot he had just hit.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After a few more heavy punches, the wall finally showed some changes, and a cracked fist mark appeared on it.
Compared to the destructive power of other Clow Cards, this fist mark is so sad no matter how you look at it.
Xia Yu: "..."
It was a wrong decision. I didn't expect that Dou Pai Zhen only knew how to use fighting skills, and his attack power was even worse than that of the blasting spell.
That's right. After all, when facing his attack, the Dou card had no ability to dodge at all and was directly defeated by his magic. The one who could break the wall with one punch should be the Li card.
"Forget it, you should come back."
Watching the fist marks on the wall getting bigger and bigger, Dou Pai seemed to be showing some signs of competition. Xia Yu sighed slightly and waved his hand to call Dou Pai back.
If you want the Dou card to break the wall and make a path, I don't know when that will happen, so you should look at other cards first.
After putting away the fighting cards, Xia Yu turned his expectant gaze to the locations of the other Clow Cards.
There is a diffuse shadow at the shadow card, as if trying to drag the wall into the shadow to achieve the purpose of restriction.
There was a loud thunder at the Thunder Sign, and every roar of the Thunder Beast would bring down a bolt of lightning, shattering the surrounding walls into charred stones.
The sword card is the simplest, and the sword energy it triggers can only cut the wall into powder. However, its power is far greater than the previous two. One sword energy can cut five or six walls into pieces.
I played "The Starving Man: A Thousand Miles Journey in the Late Ming Dynasty" these days, and it left a lasting impression. Every time I ate, I couldn't help but feel lucky that the scene of starving people everywhere and the people suffering everywhere would no longer happen in China, and I lived in an era where I could have a full meal every time. "When there was a great famine, people ate each other", these six short words tell the whole tragedy.
