Du Lai was slightly stunned. "Why?"
Bai Youwei said, "First, if it's nearby, it can signal the location of the teleportation point when we're panicking and running blindly. Second, when collecting keys, there's no need to search the entire labyrinth; we only need to go through the teleportation point to retrieve all the keys."
Everyone looked at each other and had no objection.
"Then... let's retreat."
...
No matter how they looked at it, every Stone Chamber was identical. They could only advance or retreat based on Bai Youwei's estimates.
They retreated one space east and then advanced one north, with the teleportation point to their right, when suddenly they heard the Minotaur's voice—
The sound wasn't quiet; it must have been only a few Stone Chambers away to the north.
The Minotaur had clearly been to their west before, so why had it suddenly appeared to the north?
