Every block in this maze is actually a fixed-position room.

It's just that the doors within this room appear randomly; a door might have appeared on one wall last time, but not this time. Or perhaps the door in the same position leads to a completely different room.

This gives the illusion that the maze has no fixed map.

Although in completely unknown passages, whether there is a map or not doesn't make a difference, since you have no idea where you are headed.

"So, are you saying that this maze actually has a fixed map?"

After Lin Ye's explanation, Liang Houyun still found it somewhat unbelievable and quite absurd.

"That's right," Lin Ye nodded.

Liang Houyun was speechless at this point and simply said, "Then, what's the point? It's still random, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye just smiled.

If you only know this, it indeed seems meaningless. Since the positions where passages appear are completely random, what difference does it make if these rooms' positions are fixed?

But what if now I say that to solve the maze, you must know the positions of these rooms?

Lin Ye looked at the crystals on the ground, and points began to appear in his mind.

These are the grids he had walked through.

From the first grid into the maze, Lin Ye would secretly place a mechanical little animal in each one.

In fact, he did this simply out of habit acquired over the past six months.

No matter where he went, he would put the little animal down first, regardless of its usefulness, as these little animals were not valuable anyway.

Put them down, just in case they're useful someday?

And now Lin Ye's casually placed little animals finally came into play.

Their locations in Lin Ye's mind formed a position map coinciding perfectly with the locations of the crystals.

In other words, the position of these crystals actually corresponds to the location of every grid within the maze!

Lin Ye squinted, pondering...

How to use this information to unlock the 'Nameless Tomb'?

"These crystals are making my eyes almost dazzle," Liang Houyun complained.

The grotto was indeed too bright.

Compared to those previously dark grids, stepping in suddenly was indeed a bit dazzling, no wonder Liang Houyun complained.

But this sentence made Lin Ye think of something. He looked up at a hole at the top of the grotto.

This was the only light source in the grotto!

And the beam from this small hole fell precisely on the crystal representing the first grid.

This small beam of light, reflected through so many crystals in the grotto, lit up the whole grotto as bright as daylight.

"I found the key!"

Lin Ye immediately raised his eyebrows, a bit pleasantly surprised.

"What? Where's the key?" Liang Houyun immediately leaned over, a bit excitedly asked.

If Lin Ye really found the key, he would be the witness!

The maze, said to be unsolvable since the Abyss descended, was about to be cracked, and he was the only witness besides Lin Ye, the solver.

Such an honor was enough to get his name in the history books.

"Light, it's the light!" Lin Ye said.

Liang Houyun immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Yeah, yeah! We're all users of Holy Light, alright?"

"Not that, never mind, it can't be explained. Next, I need you to do it." Lin Ye said.

Liang Houyun stopped bantering with Lin Ye and quietly waited for Lin Ye's instructions.

"I will mark the crystals with Holy Fire, and you smash all the crystals I don't mark!" Lin Ye said.

"That's it?" Liang Houyun looked at the crystals again, puzzled.

To be honest, he didn't know what the point of this was.

But since Lin Ye requested, he would just do it.

And Lin Ye began to move.

Fortunately, the actual area of this maze wasn't large, and those little animals were still under Lin Ye's control, allowing Lin Ye to check their locations.

Lin Ye followed his memory to find all the 100% important locations.

Then, he started marking.

He threw the Undying Holy Fire one by one.

Landing under the crystals that needed marking.

Over ten minutes passed, and Lin Ye finally completed the marking. He shook his hand and said to Liang Houyun, "You can start now, but remember not to damage the crystals with Holy Fire marks."

"Got it!"

Liang Houyun stepped forward and began smashing the crystals.

"Bang!"

With Liang Houyun's movements, the sound of crystal shattering occasionally echoed in the grotto.

And as the crystals decreased, the brightness in the grotto gradually dimmed.

Lin Ye quietly waited.

...

At this time, the base where City Lord Yan was located welcomed a group of special guests.

"You're saying you're here to support us?"

City Lord Yan looked at Qin Doufeng in front of him, somewhat surprised.

This Steward from the Church Court left some impression on City Lord Yan; he was the grandson of the Southern Church Court's Red-robed Cardinal Qin Lu.

Though not from the direct family line, within the Church Court, Qin Doufeng's status was certainly among the top elite.

Now he appeared here with a group of priests, saying they were here to support the Alliance Army. This truly surprised City Lord Yan.

"City Lord Yan, I just don't want to see too many casualties... Our base over there already has suffered significant losses, and I don't want the same for the Alliance Army."

Qin Doufeng's eyes reddened, clenching his fists.

Although the applications of the other priests seemed a bit dull, upon hearing Qin Doufeng's words, quite a few couldn't help but wipe their eyes.

City Lord Yan was silent for a while.

Finally, he nodded heavily, extended his hand to Qin Doufeng, and said, "In any case, Steward Qin, I'll remember this favor!"

Qin Doufeng didn't speak but shook hands with Yan Xun.

He had been ordered by his grandfather to support the Templar Knights' base, but those weak knights and negligent Guild Warriors weren't much focused on defending the base.

In the end, with each party having its own motives, that base was inevitably breached and crushed by Abyssal Demons.

Under massive invasions of Abyssal Demons, he was fortunate enough to escape with a group of priests.

But looking at the breached base, Qin Doufeng knew clearly that with this base lost, those demons would undoubtedly advance toward the Alliance Army's base.

After much hesitation, he resolutely brought his men to the base where City Lord Yan was located.

As he said, he was indeed here to provide support.

And this was neither the intention of the Bishops nor what his grandfather wanted to see.

But he had no choice.
