《LONE: The Journey Beyond》55. The Maze Runners.

"!!!"
As Aleena said that everyone became stunned.
They also felt a bit nervous and had grave expressions of their faces.
Knowing the implications of this dungeon being a maze, if it was truly a maze then its difficulty will increase by multiple folds.
"Just our fu*king luck." Parth who usually remained silent couldn't help but curse as he heard that.
"Wait! But if it was truly like this then why didn't we feel anything till now?" Reven asked Aleena.
His query contained a point since in their journey till here, they had repeatedly checked the cave structures.
So the walls containing different pathways was kinda illogical.
"I am wondering that too!" Aleena said with a thoughtful expression on her face.
It was at this moment Aimee suddenly looked a Talos and said-
"Talos use [Weapon Control] and send them towards the walls."
"!!!"
Everyone including Talos looked at her in surprise.
"Are you sure? I mean if the ceiling falls down then?" He asked back.
"Don't worry about that. Just do it!"
So Talos followed her instructions and smashed around 10 to 15 swords towards the walls.
Bam-! Bam-! Boom-!
Tut-! Tut-! Tut-! Tut-! Tut-!
The walls started to crumble down with a gap of about 20m between them which contained a solid structure.
After a few moments the walls completely crumbled and the dust also settled.
And as soon as this happened.
Silence engulfed the group!
"Welp! I guess it is confirmed now." Felix said as a matter of fact.
"So this increases our questions even more now. Just how are they made?
This level of advance engineering is something that not even us humans have reached. This is not just a simple dungeon anymore is it?" Aleena said with a frown.

"Let's stop right here. This is still our first dungeon anyways so for now let's focus on the more important factors." Reven stopped her musings for the moment and continued-
"Okay, so we need to separate now if we want to find the right way towards the centre of the dungeon.
That is most likely the place we will find the Boss Monster of the dungeon and maybe some answers to our queries too."
"Indeed, Reven is right. We should focus on our objective here i.e. to get back Vera and then get out of here." Aimee chimed in.
"So everyone let us take one road each. Empress should be able to synchronize our positions based on the Radio-Ardor Waves our Wrist-Bands emits.
So tracking back shouldn't be a problem. We should also be able to create a map much faster now.
But most importantly be careful from now on. We will be moving alone which also means that we will be more vulnerable. So be extremely careful." Reven said again.
"We will be careful."
The group then decided to take one pathway each. There were still some pathways left but they didn't have more people so they couldn't do anything here.
"Alright it's time to become…
The Maze Runners!"
-----
"[Vector expansion]!"
Boom-!
Reven could be seen punching through some orc like monsters.
It was a bit confusing and distorting sight because Reven only punched a single orc but the results were that about 6 or 7 more orcs felt the same force without even getting punched in the first place.
Reven's technique was getting more and more deadly and unpredictable as he neared the threshold of the next realm of CSAR –The [Life-Force Body Sheath Realm].
"Nope that's not it."

Still contrary to everyone's thoughts Reven shook his head seeing that he didn't got the desire outcome.
"It's still a chance thing to my body and it is yet to be embedded into my [Seamless Intuition].
Well… it was not going to be easy in the first place but if it really reaches perfection then I will be fully capable of utilizing the great physique I have due to [Physical Body Sheath Realm].
I think I will also be able to breakthrough into next realm if I manage to do that perfectly." Reven thought.
It had been about 11 hours since everyone separated.
Reven had already crossed about 60kms in this time frame. He fought many different types of monsters in his journey till now too.
This helped Reven to gain many insights in his fighting skills with further enhanced his [Combat Mastery] and [Super Senses] skills a bit.
By now everyone else also had travelled in their respective pathways.
This helped the group to swiftly create a map by positioning the paths ways of everyone via 'Empress' and their joint effort.
After getting a rough sketch of the map the group had reached to the conclusion that the maze which they were crossing was a circular maze.
They also believed that they were only in the outer perimeter of the maze till now. And as they would enter the inner regions the challenges coming at them would also increase.
The Maze would most likely change its formations and positions as they enter the inner regions.
After Reven cleared the group of orcs, he started to move towards the inner regions steadily.
Shua... Shua… Shua… Shua… Shua…
Swoosh-! Woosh-!
Bang-!
Suddenly as he moved towards the inner regions of the maze, some arrows appeared out of nowhere and hit him.
It was thanks to his intuition that he was able to block it by coating Ardor around his body or else the arrow would have gravely injured him as it was aimed at his neck.
Tang-! Tang-!...
Shuaaa!
The moment he blocked the first arrow, hundreds of more arrows were fired at his direction again. And this time from multiple directions.
"Damn it." Reven cursed.
He then used Ardor to form a dagger like aura weapon around his arm and then used a Mongolian movement technique which used weight and body-balance as the base to make its user show heavy impact with less movement.
This movement was very good for extremely fast paced and wide ranged fights. As it kept the body at a very high temperature and helped to increase the outputs of the offensive attacks.
Tut… Tut… Tut… Tut… Tut…
He kept using his coordinated hand and foot movements to totally destroy all the arrows coming at him.
'Where is the switch? This is getting too much fast paced. I need to stop the incoming arrows or else I won't be able to move forward.'
Reven kept on thinking as he looked around and cut apart the arrows with his [Super Senses] and [Seamless Intuition].
'Wait! I can do that. I am such an idiot sometimes.' He suddenly had an idea as his eyes lit up.
He swiftly touched the ground and…
[Transmutation]
He used his ability to make a cylindrical wall around himself.
He then used his ability again and made spikes which came out of the cylindrical walls and shot towards all the directions at extreme speeds.
Pat…Pat…Pat…Pat...
Booom-!
Bam-! Bam-! Boom-!
CRACK-!
He suddenly heard a cracking sound as his eyes lit up. He thought-
'Bingo!'
