Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 438

Chapter 438: Hungry Beast Souls!

Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has the [Scepter of Disaster], so she could use the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons to explore all of the paths in this maze.

This giant maze room was actually more complicated than Tang Li Xue's thought.

Even with so many dried corpses and armored skeletons helped her pass through countless dangerous traps and explored all of the paths ahead of her, Tang Li Xue still stuck many times by the dead-end intersections.

Just so you know, Tang Li Xue was actually very bad at this kind of maze trial since she was really easy to get lost.

In fact, Tang Li Xue already lost her way several times previously until she finally learned [Ethereal Form] to pass through any obstacles and [Mapping Sense] to not get lost on her way.

Tang Li Xue's armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons might be could not be killed with arrows or blades, but they were vulnerable to flame and thunder traps, so their numbers kept decreasing bit by bit as Tang Li Xue proceed forward deeper into the maze to find the way out.

Although, there were several corpses and skeletons of the previous trial taker in the maze, but their numbers still could not make up for the loss.

477...

421...

389...

334...

298...

243…

Tang Li Xue started to get more nervous and anxious when the total number of her army of death already dwindled by more than half while she still did not know how far she was right now from the exit of this maze.

"Damn it! This maze is really troublesome! Sigh… If only I can use my [Ethereal Form] divine ability here, getting out from this maze would be really easy to do!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and complained.

After pondering her next moves for a few moments, Tang Li Xue immediately decided to change her strategy.

[Water Mirage]!

When Tang Li Xue used her [Water Mirage], her slender figure started to split into four, then from four to eight, and so on...

Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirage] split into twenty-four identical figures of her in an instant, and they started to scatter away to several paths and ran ahead of the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons.

"This way, I can check what kind of traps lies ahead without losing any of my armies. Even if I run out of Qi or stamina because I used [Water Mirage] too much, I can just take some rest for a while to recover." Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction and felt she was really smart to think of this plan.

It could be said this perfect plan of hers was really a game-changer since Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] always ran ahead first as the scout, then it would be the ones who will trigger the dangerous traps first.

After the [Water Mirages] checked what kinds of traps ahead of them, Tang Li Xue only need to think of a way to pass through them.

If the traps ahead of them were only blade or arrow traps, the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons could easily pass through those traps with their undying bodies.

As for Tang Li Xue herself, she could easily pass those traps as long as already she knew their pattern.

If the traps ahead of them were fire or lightning traps, Tang Li Xue must think of a way to disarm those traps first before she and her armies of death continued their way.

Tang Li Xue no longer lost any of her armies of death in this way, but it did not mean her plan has no demerit at all.

Their exploring speed actually dropped quite significantly since Tang Li Xue needed to take some rest once in a while to replenish her Qi and stamina after she used [Water Mirage] tens of times to scout the several paths ahead of them.

The deeper they proceeded, the paths of this maze became even more complicated, and the traps also became even trickier and dangerous than before.

After two days of exploring the big maze, several complicated paths finally converged into one great hall.

But Tang Li Xue still did not dare to lower her guard even a bit, so she decided to let one squad of her armies of death and her [Water Mirage] enter that great hall first.

After one squad of the armored skeletons and Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] entered the great hall, there was nothing strange or dangerous happened at first so Tang Li Xue decided to lead all of her armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons to enter the great hall too...

BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!!
