Chapter 1355: Simplicity Hides Secrets
Under the voice-over announcement.
Ronald and Caterina stepped into the village in front of them.
"Labyrinth Picture Book" still perfectly restores the state here.
There are few original occupants in sight, but the Boulevard army occupies it and uses it as a temporary command point. The structure of the labyrinth was also born in such a special situation.
Every road, every shop, every dwelling in the whole village.
They are all occupied by a large number of Boulevard spellcasters.
Some of them were preparing spells to attack the saloon, which was already not far away, while others were resting in place in a very tired state.

Ronald and Caterina walked in it.
It didn't take much effort, and it was even easy to walk through the village, and then face the dust beast in front of you again.
They were quite close to this behemoth.
At a distance that could be easily seen by the eye, Sharon's body was prostrate on the ground. There is a white body that rises and falls rhythmically, and at a glance it looks like a living object.
"This is also a labyrinth?"
Just as the two of them easily passed through the village and were about to continue on their way, Caterina suddenly grabbed Ronald.
"According to what you said before, everything we have experienced along the way should be quite dangerous, right?"
"But this village ...... It's so easy to come over? ”
Katerina's inquiry made Ronald stop where he was.
Although they have only now walked through the two parts of the canopy maze and the dark forest, from these experiences, they can also roughly analyze the style presented by the "Labyrinth Picture Book" this time.
Labyrinth after labyrinth, scenes in times of crisis, and this rhythm that barely gives respite.
Suddenly, there was a simple and easy village for them to pass through.
It really doesn't fit the overall style of the maze.
"Katarina, you're right."
"There's definitely something wrong here, something important that we've probably overlooked."
After making the decision, Ronald immediately turned his head.
The danger of the maze had to be taken very carefully, and he could not accept that there was a major omission. After all, in the maze that followed, this would most likely be the cause of their failure.
Back when I first entered the "Labyrinth Picture Book".
Ronald has already experienced the importance of such key clues.
Caterina followed Ronald around and continued to ask:
"Where do you think we should start?"
Ronald thought about it for a while, and the conclusion came to his mind:
"This small labyrinth in this village is mainly made up of people, and if there is something very important hidden here, it should also be inseparable from people."
Sure enough.
As soon as Ronald answered, the voiceover sounded synchronously.
[Very lucky! Alerted by his clever assistant, the adventurer realizes that there is a key figure hidden in the village! 】
[So can he find this important existence?] 】
The voice is heard.
Ronald and Caterina looked at each other and immediately had an idea:
"Since they are all the armies of the Boulevard, then we will find their commander."
The two turned back and fell into a labyrinth of crowds.
They also try to talk to these soldiers in the Boulevard, but after the "Labyrinth Picture Book" was turned into a "Labyrinth Picture Book", these animated villains will only say a few fixed lines such as "I don't know" and "I can't go through here".
Their only role in the village was to act as a wall to hinder the movement of Ronald and the others.
After a quarter of an hour, the general structure of the entire village was known.
Instead of wasting time exploring the terrain, Ronald and his wife walked through the crowd to the small square northeast of the village.
The terrain is open, there are houses that cover a lot of land nearby, and a well can provide drinking water.
In the current labyrinthine environment, there is the greatest probability that there will be someone like an officer here.
The scope was demarcated, and the search continued.
Ronald and the others soon found out.
At the entrance to a courtyard, there were a few soldiers standing, but not the kind of obstacle that formed the human wall.
In other words - it's a guarded house!
With such a special goal in front of them, Ronald and Caterina naturally walked over.
Then - "No people who are not on our side, not allowed to enter"
Before the two of them could enter the compound, the soldiers guarding changed positions and stopped at the door.
Although Ronald and the others couldn't get in, they were in a much better mood.
With this kind of obstacle, there must be something of great value in this yard!
"Katarina, let's take a look around."
Knowing that this place could not be broken in directly, Ronald naturally left with Katarina, ready to find a way in from the surroundings.
Then turn it down in a circle.
They found that the courtyard had only one entrance, a gate.
The walls in other places were intact, and the back doors were firmly sealed, so there was no possibility of entering.
Turning back to her original position, Caterina immediately asked:
"Ronald, what now?"
"Or should we give up the secrets of this place and continue to focus on cracking the maze behind?"
Ronald shook his head decisively:
"No, then the test will be even more difficult."
"Katerina, the main purpose of solving the maze is to use observation and intelligence, and this rush will only lead us astray."
Hearing this, Caterina didn't say much, but pondered with Ronald how to solve the problem.
The two of them came to a standstill.
Around the square they could not find a way in, and the possibility of even bypassing from the high point was non-existent. As for the soldiers, there is simply no one to communicate with here, and there is nowhere to start from this aspect.
Another few minutes passed.
Ronald was still watching the soldiers here, trying to see if he had missed any important clues. But Caterina on the side, the observation point is completely different from him.
The tower owner of the astronomy department did not attach much importance to the military.
Instead, he lingered on his surroundings, eventually focusing on a facility in the square.
Caterina raised her eyebrows slightly, and greeted Ronald without looking back:
"Ronald, do you have a result over there?"
Ronald replied loudly:
"I'm still trying!"
Knowing that Ronald was currently unproductive, Caterina called her directly:
"Then why don't you come and see me, I think this thing might be interesting!"
"Oh?" Ronald walked over curiously.
He came to Caterina's side and pointed to the facility that the girl was paying attention to, his tone and eyes were a little subtle:
"Isn't this the well?"
Caterina nodded, then reached out and gestured to Ronald.
"That's right, it's the well."
"Now the heavens can't get in, and the earth can't get in."
"If I really want to find a way to get in, I can only find a way to get in from the ground."
