Theoretically speaking, if one can enter the inverted space, there must also be a way to leave. As long as one can find the exact point where the mirrors meet and repeat the process, one can successfully escape from this place.

However, this is precisely the crux of the problem—they had no idea where the entrance was located.

Just as the so-called "cloned car" was about to collide head-on with them, Xi Xi's attention was entirely focused on the car directly in front of her, leaving her no energy to pay attention to her surroundings, and naturally she had no recollection of any distinctive features around her.

Moreover, humans are prone to memory bias when in a state of extreme fear. Even if there is a memory, it is necessary for the memories of the three people to be consistent in order to prove that it is not a false memory filled in by the brain.

For a moment, silence fell over the surroundings, with only the rustling sound of the campfire burning.

Not only Xi Xi, but Chu Zhiqin was also in the same situation. She tried hard to recall all the useful details, but found that apart from the cloned car, her mind was blank.

Sallyman remained silent, seemingly lost in thought, staring blankly at the fire. Finally, she succumbed to hunger, picked up the bowl, blew on it to cool it, and carefully put the grain stew into her mouth.

Seemingly feeling a little embarrassed to enjoy the food alone, Sallyman paused briefly after taking a few sips of the mixed soup, then softly said to Xi Xi, "Why don't you have some too?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Xi and her mother both turned their gaze to the rather messy-looking mixed soup and politely declined.

Chu Zhiqin then returned to the car, leaving only Xi Xi and Shaliman to discuss countermeasures.

Sallyman seemed completely unaware of the dungeon's contents, even mentioning outrageous remedies like using garlic to ward off evil spirits and sprinkling salt to save her life.

Xi Xi had some doubts. Continuing to discuss it like this would only waste time. Just as she was about to say something, the quiet atmosphere was broken by a sudden noise.

Aura had somehow slipped out of the car and was now poking at the lush green moss on the surrounding walls with her paws.

Xi Xi clicked her tongue lightly, and with quick reflexes, grabbed the cat by the scruff of its neck and picked it up.

Is this a place where kittens can play around? Xi Xi felt helpless and annoyed. This girl, Aura, really has no sense of propriety at all... What if she gets captured by some scoundrel?

Originally, Xi Xi did not want to expose Aura and the little white duck.

After all, everyone is struggling to survive in the game of survival. If it is discovered that she also keeps pets, it would in a sense expose the fact that she has abundant resources.

She felt a little guilty, but her expression remained unchanged. Xi Xi glanced nervously at Sallyman out of the corner of her eye and noticed that Sallyman's eyes had lit up.

She gazed at the black and white calico cat with great interest, her voice filled with anticipation, and asked cautiously, "Is this your cat? Can I pet it?"

Almost the instant Shaliman finished speaking, Xi Xi clearly heard Aura's inner scream of resistance.

"Now you're unwilling? Then why are you running around everywhere?" Xi Xi thought to herself.

She remained outwardly unmoved, but secretly squeezed Aura in her arms to gauge her weight. She thought to herself that it was fortunate that the black and white cat was naturally slender. In the cat world, she wasn't considered plump, but in the world of survival, she wasn't too out of place. People who didn't know cats would probably think that Aura didn't eat much...

So, Xi Xi said calmly without changing her expression, "It's possible, but this guy has a rebellious streak, be careful he doesn't scratch you..."

A wary glint flashed in Aura's eyes, but Shaliman still reached out her hand.

Her fingers gently traced the kitten's head, chin, and back, each touch just right, neither too forceful nor too gentle.

Aura's body gradually relaxed, her tense muscles slowly soothed, her fur became soft and smooth, and she began to purr contentedly.

Xi Xi glanced at Shaliman with slight surprise. Shaliman's technique was skillful, and she was clearly not a novice at petting cats.

"Have you ever owned a cat before?" Xi Xi asked.

Sallyman paused in stroking the cat. "Yes," she said slowly, her voice seemingly gathering some emotion, "it was a Ragdoll cat... but it's already..."

Sallyman stopped speaking, and Xi Xi immediately understood. This unspoken silence was probably a tacit understanding that only pet owners could comprehend.

Seeing that Aura was about to throw a tantrum on the ground, Xi Xi had no choice but to pick her up and knock on the car window.

Except for the windshield in the driver's area, which was not deliberately covered, all the curtains inside the RV were tightly closed, so Xi Xi had no idea what was going on inside.

Chu Zhiqin was feeding the little white duck when she was shocked to realize that Aura had quietly slipped out while she was getting into the car and opening the door. She was immediately furious.

Ultimately, it was obvious that Aura was severely reprimanded by Xi's mother.

Time passed by, and by then it should have been deep into the night. But the tunnel was already dark, which gave the illusion of time being out of balance.

Sallyman's modified racing car and Xi Xi's small RV were parked on either side of the tunnel, surrounded by tranquility.

Xi Xi yawned, but was not sleepy at all. She sat in the driver's seat, constantly scrolling through the public chat, hoping to find some useful information.

Unfortunately, the public chat was still buzzing with talk of the sandstorm, and no one seemed to be mentioning the tunnel.

Just as Xi Xi predicted, the desert region was hit by another sandstorm, this time even more intense than before.

Xi Xi estimated that, in this way, within a day or two, most players who had exhausted their survival points would enter the tunnel, and those who had already entered the tunnel would probably no longer hide.

Meanwhile, Sallyman was exhausted but unable to sleep. She still felt she should rummage around for a possible way to escape.

Unfortunately, her stamina was completely depleted for the day, and she was too exhausted to take any more risks. With a helpless sigh, she locked the car door and decided to take stock of the treasure chests she had acquired that day and organize her new supplies.

A short while later, Sallyman knocked on Xi Xi's car window.

As Xi Xi was browsing the trading hall, she opened the car window and saw Shaliman with a solemn expression, carrying a worn-out backpack...
