Without hesitation, the first thing I did was rummage through my backpack for my phone and turn on the camera. At that moment, I was so scared that I almost threw the phone away.
I noticed my eyes, projected into this camera, casting a very clear double image!
One layer is the natural color of my eyes, while this should be the normal one.
There was another layer that seemed to float directly on the phone screen; it was completely black, staring straight through the screen at me.
It looks exactly like a demon without any expression or demeanor!
I was completely dumbfounded.
No way...
I moved it left and right, thinking there was something wrong with the phone screen, since my phone had been malfunctioning frequently before.
However, if I move slightly to the left, those two completely black pupils follow me to the left, and if I move to the right, they follow me in the same way.
I was completely stunned...
I froze, not daring to move an inch. Then I looked up at the girl again, and she reflexively took several steps back.
"Yiyi! It's okay! Calm down first..."
I quickly steadied the girl, who was also filled with worry and fear.
They all look at me as if I'm some kind of weirdo.
I understand that she must find it very difficult to accept that I am like this now.
After all, from the very first time I met her, I was still the same person I always was.
She had never seen this mutated state before.
Even though she was the owner of the manor, she had met many strange and unusual people.
However, in Yiyi's mind, I have always been a relatively normal person.
It was a long time before the girl finally managed to speak, her voice trembling with fear.
"Brother... what's going on... could it still be because of that contract?"
There was some worry in her voice, but when I asked her how I was doing, she told me that I was feeling better than before.
However, the entire eye is still black.
I have some doubts. Could it be because the girl insisted on pulling me into this mural that I'm starting to conform to the people in it?
Just now, in the instant she pulled me forward, I even felt as if my body had become disconnected from its original self.
It felt like the girl pulled me away, but I just stayed in the same place.
The next second, something even more outrageous happened.
I looked at the girl, and the focus of her gaze went straight from where I was standing to where I was standing shoulder to shoulder with her.
"Brother, you're teleporting!"
"What? I have this skill too?"
I looked down at my body, touching and pinching it, but I didn't feel any changes.
But what I can confirm is that I can move.
Although it was an abnormal movement.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
I thought to myself with emotion.
As I watched her eyes change little by little, my scalp tingled with unease.
I've been standing here the whole time!
"Holy crap?"
In my shock, I managed to utter two words, albeit somewhat stiffly.
Upon hearing my words, the girl was immediately startled and took two steps back...
His face was filled with disbelief.
I basically maintained the same state as her.
I asked myself, "Look where I am right now!"
"Master, don't you understand!"
Now, in the girl's eyes, you are beside him because he pulled you a few steps, and your eyes turn black whenever you get close to that mural!
But from your own perspective, you're just standing here without moving!
Only on your phone can you see two pairs of eyes: one pair that you originally had, and the other pair that was alienated after getting close to that mural!
Master, quickly check if your eyes feel uncomfortable right now...
I blinked gently, still reeling from the shock of what the girl had just said.
Isn't that a bit too outrageous? The girl actually told me that I was next to her?
But the voice I heard was that I was still in the same place?
Having auditory and visual hallucinations is one thing, but now they're even experiencing magical perceptions?
This house is way too eerie!
Seeing how terrified the girl was, I didn't dare to say another word.
Yiyi, who had been pulling me inside, had already let go of my hand.
Suddenly, something occurred to me, and I turned to look at the mural. I noticed that the figures on the mural seemed clearer and more menacing.
The emotions and expressions they displayed were even more bizarre and chilling.
I didn't have time to think any further; all I wanted to do was calm the girl down as quickly as possible.
Then, gritting my teeth, I took another step toward the mural.
But this time I found that the force that the mural was exerting on me seemed to have suddenly decreased.
"Lightning Strike Sword! Give me some strength!"
Just now, when I took a step forward, the mural felt like it was pushing me, but now I only feel some weight on my legs, but I don't feel that pushing sensation anymore.
Without hesitation, Lei Jijian immediately injected a small amount of energy into me, and in that instant, I suddenly realized that my whole body was feeling a tingling sensation.
Then my legs felt like they had been lifted off the ground, and I took a sudden step forward.
At this moment, I feel a sense of lightness throughout my body.
Alright, I should have sent Lei Jijian sooner!
This time, there was no resistance at all, and I went straight to the girl.
However, I don't know what kind of scene this is in the eyes of the girl, but I do feel that my whole body has relaxed a lot.
Standing firmly beside her, I looked around and, feeling there was no danger, I dared to slowly tell Yiyi to continue forward.
"Brother...you..."
I didn't say anything, but I saw that Yiyi looked a little surprised, but also relieved. I was very happy about that.
Looking at it now, it seems that I don't feel as strained as before when I take each step.
If this mural really is the Gate of Life, then we have no reason not to go in.
"Brother, I mean your eyes seem darker now... but that distorted voice is gone..."
I slumped my head, completely speechless.
Okay, so that's how it is...
In other words, while this black eyeball wouldn't affect me, it did cause some panic in the girl, and as we went deeper into the mural, the condition of my eyes worsened.
But what can you do about it? If you went inside that mural, would that really be the outcome?
