Chapter 336: Leaving the Maze (2/2)
”Oh look, one of the guys gave up on his own. He touched his own talismans,” an elder said from the side.
Indeed, there was 1 less participant in the maze. A guy in the catacombs had given up.
Slowly, one after another, the 5 people in the final maze started making their way out as well. During that time, the second person lost in the catacombs finally made his way out and flew to the wooden walls as well.
Even that person made it outside before Alex and one other person. The other person made it out about 5 minutes after that, and around 10 minutes after that, Alex finally got out.
With the last person out of the maze, the Maze run was finally over.
DING
A large ranking board appeared in the sky. It showed the maze clear time of everyone. The person that left first was the winner and the person that came last, Alex, was the worst of all.
Fu Zhen then started speaking. ”These are the raw results of the game today. As you can see, the fastest time was 1 hour, 34 minutes, and 46 seconds, while the lowest time was 3 hours, 22 minutes, and 33 seconds long.”
”However, we have yet to add the time reduction talisman they might have gathered. Let us start with the first person,” Fu Zhen said and called forth the first person on the list.
The person walked forth and provided 6 talismans to a staff. The staff put them in a box and the time on the ranking board started dropping.
The final score was reduced by a minute and 24 seconds, to make it 1 hour, 33 minutes, and 12 seconds.
The second person was called forth, and then the third and the fourth. There were really only 52 people in total that passed and it wouldn't take a long time for their numbers to be rechecked.
The rankings never really changed a lot. The most reduction one got was as of yet was Yang Ma who managed to get a 5 minutes reduction in the result time and got about 2 hours as the actual result.
However, that all changed when the last of the 5 people went forward. The first person gave nearly 50 talismans to the staff, garnering a lot of attention from the others.
His result was originally 2 hours, 58 minutes, and 55 seconds. After submitting the talismans, his result went down to 2 hours, 23 minutes, and 34 seconds. That was a whopping 35-minute reduction in finishing time.
Everyone was shocked at how much reduced, however, that wasn't able to get him anywhere. The next 3 people also managed to reduce anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour in their result, but that wasn't enough to get them even in the top 10.
The second last person was the guy lost in the catacombs, so he really didn't have much and only reduced his time by 3 minutes at most.
Finally, it was time for the final person in the ranking, Alex to give him talismans.
