Stepping inside the maze, all the teams immediately found themselves getting teleported into different locations far from each other through a Magic Array formation that had covered everyone with a Short Distance Blink spell.
Ahmed, Brad, and Illiad were transported to the southern region of the maze.
Looking around, they immediately found plenty of mountains broken into pieces and forming different pathways leading towards unknown locations.
The ceiling of the pathways was somewhat covered by vines, stones, plants, and trees that slightly shade everyone from the light of the sun.
”Ahmed, do you hear me?” Leo's voice sounded throughout the communicators.
”Yes, loud and very clear, Guild Leader Loki,” Ahmed quickly responded.
”Your current location right now is the worst spot of the entire maze,” Leo informed them of the unfortunate news, before heaving a sigh of helplessness.
Ahmed, Brad, and Illiad's faces immediately turned bitter after hearing Leo's words.
They have already seen it with their own eyes before just how difficult it was to traverse the southern region of the miniature replica of the Mountain Wall range. And considering that this maze was from that setting, they can already imagine that this place had become even more difficult.
”No worries, though, I'm currently going to the control room right now to provide even detailed information about the map to all of you. In the meantime, try to check your surroundings and see if there might be any chances of it being familiar to any of you. If it is possible as well, please look for those items that could help you in this maze, and also be extremely careful of the hidden traps in the surroundings while moving,” Leo reminded while currently rushing towards the control room.
He didn't bother to wait for Orcborg and the others to come after seeing the location of Ahmed and the others on the map. This was because they required immediate assistance compared to Orcborg and Selina's teams since they are located at a high vantage point while his team is in the lowest point.
The maze is currently arranged into one floor to five floors, with those previous mountains having the highest number of floors while the flat land having the lowest number of floors.
As of this moment, Orcborg and Selina's team are both located on those previous mountains that have five floors. Albeit, it would require them a considerable amount of time before they could finally go down from their location, it at least gave them a really good view of the nearby paths from the top. This also allows them to observe for any good items and think of the plans for their subsequent actions.
While, on the other, Ahmed's team are located on the very bottom floor, where not only could they not see their surrounding pathways clearly due to the high walls blocking their surrounding and their place almost close to being an underground, but all of their actions would also have to be based upon the situation they are in as they go on the pathway that they would choose to follow.
In such an unfavorable spot for Ahmed's team, if he really decides to wait for Orcborg and the others to come, then they would no doubt be at a disadvantage if they can't find any of those items that can provide them with an advantage in the maze soon, and possibly get into an accident that might either cause them injuries or worst die if they can't locate the location of the hidden traps. This also proves that the Mirror Map Table could tremendously provide a lot of help to them in this second game 'The Maze' compared to the first game 'Hide and Seek'.
While Leo was on his way to the control room, the cloud of dust covering the surrounding of the maze finally settled down, finally revealing to everyone the entire map of the game 'The Maze'.
The surrounding light screens of the Victory Arena and the entire Emerald Tree Kingdom also began showing different scenes of the 75 teams spread all over the maze, as followed by the appearance of the map that shows their exact location on the map.
Flying around the sky, Elmont, Tifa, and Tila began talking about their thoughts on the second game 'The Maze'.
”All the teams are currently still in the state of familiarizing themselves with their location and are thinking of what plans they should execute...” Elmont suddenly paused as he looked at one of the scenes on the light screens, ”Oh, wait, it seems like a fortunate team has already found one of those items,”
”Indeed, and it seems like they are the team from the top 27,” Tifa added.
On the light screen, the team from the top 27, made up entirely of male Elf and located at the southern region of the maze, could be seen stumbling on a chest located nearby the location that they were teleported.
