Everyone was looking at her.

The mood should have been serious and tense, but because everyone was holding food and wine, it strangely felt like the gossip chatting after a party.

Shen MO asked Bai Youwei, “Have you come up with a way out yet?”

“Not really,” Bai Youwei replied, “If it was a regular maze, Tan Xiao’s method would be sufficient. But… in this maze, I think looking for the exit is secondary.

What we really need to find is people.”

“People?” Tan Xiao gobbled up a piece of ox tongue, “Which people?”

Professor Chang Weicai carefully wrapped bacon around an enoki mushroom and sighed. “Weiwei must be referring to those who have disappeared.”

“Exactly,” Bai Youwei nodded, “We need to identify the crisis to know where survival lies. The only clue we have now is that there’s something wrong with the mirrors here. Are there any other dangers in the maze? Are there any traps? Are there any taboos? To answer these questions, I’m afraid we have to find those missing persons first.”

Shen MO pondered,saying slowly, “We won’t know what threats or opportunities there are, until we venture deeper into the maze. Given its size, we will need at least two days to navigate the entire maze. If the maze is even more complicated, it might even take us three days.”

This is going to be a war of attrition.

Unlike the games that ended in a few minutes, in this maze, it is the last ones standing who win.

As they chatted, they made a plan to explore:

Using the fountain in the center of the maze as the starting point, dividing the maze into eight exploration areas in the shape of a Chinese character ‘9,” exploring two to three areas each day. This way, by the third day, they would have figured out the entire maze.

To expedite the exploration of the maze, items such as phones, ropes, paint, spray guns, along with glue and paper for marking were all added to the list of supplies to find.

Bai Youwei stated, “We also need to find some tents. I don’t want to have to sleep facing the mirrors.”

The rest area they were currently located in was in the center of the maze. Surrounded by mirrors on all sides, a casual glance would show their puppet-like reflection in the mirror, an unsettling feeling.

Shen MO nodded.

He agreed that sleeping in tents would be safer.

After all, no one could guarantee what might happen if they constantly exposed themselves to the mirrors.

“After we finish eating, we will search an area while gathering supplies,” Shen MO calmly ordered, “Keep in mind this is just our first day, no need to rush. Remember to conserve energy, we’ll take turns keeping watch tonight.”

Everyone nodded in agreement as the barbecue was coming to an end.

Just as they were preparing to clear up the leftovers, the sound of footsteps and faint voices came from not far off, gradually getting closer.

“I seem to smell grilled meat…”

“Yang Yi, you’re drooling over meat, haha!”

..Hey, it does indeed smell like grilled meat, I also smell it…”

“I smell it too!”

“Professor Tu! There are people up ahead!”

Tu Dan led a group of students out of the passage and found Shen MO, Bai Youwei, Tan Xiao, Chang Weicai, along with their grill and barbecue.

Tu Dan’s group was stunned.

So was Shen Mo’s group.

. Oh my.” One of the girls expressed in disbelief, “They are actually barbecuing in the maze.”

Because of the silence, her voice echoed in the air clearly, making the awl«vard atmosphere even more palpable…

Tan Xiao, having size up the situation, casually invite them: “Have you guys eaten? Join us?”

Tu Dan:

The students: .

Professor Chang was enthusiastic, “I’ll go gather some more charcoal.” ‘IN-no, there’s no need, Professor Chang,” Tu Dan stammered. “We’ve already eaten…”

Her gaze reluctantly landed on Shen MO and Bai Youwei, “So…. you guys are also here inside?”
