Taking Gauss with them, they walked for half a day, only to find it was a wasted trip.
"Now it's gone."
Although he hadn't explored the area last time due to safety concerns, actually finding it gone made him feel a bit regretful.
This is the maze, where danger and opportunity coexist, and opportunities, once missed, may never return.
Seeing Serdur's embarrassed expression, Gauss instead smiled and tiptoed to pat him on the shoulder.
"It's fine. Even if it was here, we probably wouldn't have explored it. Besides, we didn't waste time; we were supposed to pick a direction at random anyway."
"Hmm."
Gauss opened the map, and the exploration of the second layer was still not very thorough.
The second layer, compared to the first, is more dangerous with a complex terrain; the passages are winding like a labyrinth, and aside from the horizontal intersections, sometimes there are vertical ones.
After searching around, the three did not linger and continued to move forward.
