Chapter 63: Monsters in the Mirror When do you think they will start attacking...
Li Ming sat on the steps of the commercial street and took a deep breath.
"I'm sorry, Jiang Huai. I didn't know which was the correct answer at that time." Li Ming raised his head with a wry smile and said to Jiang Huai beside him, "I may still be too naive..."
He sighed subconsciously.
Jiang Huai shook his head and consoled him: "This is normal, we are all new here. But thanks to what happened just now, now you and I know what happened in Lingcheng."
"It's a bit strange." Li Ming lowered his head and muttered to himself.
Jiang Huai was surprised: "What's so strange about it?"
Li Ming fell silent for a moment. He hesitated and said, "I was wondering why this field knows who will become a disaster in the future. Does the monster reflected in the mirror know that it is a reflection?"
But what puzzled Li Ming the most was:
Why isn't there a corresponding monster reflected in his image?
All current speculations in the comics forum point to the conclusion that "he will not be a human in the future", but Li Ming does not feel the "other self" that Guo Kai mentioned.
Li Ming lowered his head and thought:
He inexplicably felt that a storm was coming. This field was like a breeding ground for poisonous insects, and it would destroy itself sooner or later. People at the moment didn't know, but Li Ming knew clearly -
Humans can degenerate into lords of realms.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if a domain master really walked out of the mirror. What would happen if the two domains were superimposed on each other?
Finally, Li Ming said solemnly: "You'd better leave as soon as possible."
"It's too early now."
Jiang Huai shook his head in disapproval. He reached out and pulled Li Ming up, saying, "Let's continue to ask someone. I'm also curious about what the disaster will be like."
When he said this, his tone sounded as if he was finally being useful.
Li Ming couldn't help laughing after hearing this:
"Well, I did persecute you badly in the last field."
"It's simply my nightmare." Jiang Huai's eyes suddenly became empty. He himself didn't want to recall the things in the Rainy Night Domain. To use Jiang Huai's words, everyone he looked at was a real person, and everyone who looked at him was a trouble.
It's tiring.
"Then we can go for a walk in the city." Li Ming stood up and patted his trouser legs, laughing, "It's a good opportunity to see if we can encounter anything."
"good."
Jiang Huai nodded in agreement. He then paused for a moment and suddenly exclaimed, "Li Ming, you are amazing."
"Um?"
"You understand before I can sort out the situation."
“It’s because of talent.”
Li Ming shook his head disapprovingly: "If you were in my shoes, you would definitely be able to do the same."
"Um……"
Jiang Huai fell into deep thought after hearing this. He hesitated and said, "If Li Ming could stand in my position, he would definitely be able to do better than me."
Li Ming couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Are you thinking too much about me?"
"You tend to put yourself down."
Jiang Huai smiled helplessly and said, "And you tend to imagine me to be very powerful."
Li Ming snorted disapprovingly. He didn't want to have too much discussion with Jiang Huai about this. Even if he could force Jiang Huai to accept his suggestion verbally, Jiang Huai would not take it seriously.
"By the way—"
Li Ming asked without warning and dryly, "What's your sister's name?"
Jiang Huai tilted his head in confusion. He didn't know why Li Ming suddenly mentioned this matter, but because of the experience of the "rainy night", he no longer resisted talking about it.
"Xiao Xiao, the Xiao of dawn."
Jiang Huai smiled subconsciously: "It just happens to have the same meaning as your name."
What a coincidence.
Li Ming walked around absentmindedly. He hadn't reacted until a forum reader pointed out the similarities between the two sisters. And now even he could make the connection.
But Li Yixi is 19 years old this year.
No matter what, it can't be associated with 12-year-old Xiao Xiao, right?
Jiang Huai took a few steps forward and asked side by side with Li Ming:
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"Just curious." Li Ming said casually, but soon he turned his head to look into Jiang Huai's eyes and asked stubbornly, "Isn't it normal to be curious about your friend's family situation?"
"It seems so."
Jiang Huai nodded honestly.
The fog spread and twisted in the city. They walked on the empty streets again, but this time neither of them had any doubts about the sparsely populated streets.
Li Ming saw a thin, long, dark figure pacing between the tall buildings. When he stepped on the ground, his thin, bamboo-like feet made a light, crisp, cracking sound.
Every step brings with it wind and waves.
[Disaster: Slender Black Shadow (Reflection)]
[Disaster Sequence: B-79 Light, E-112 Deformed]
[Note: His mother hoped that He would be steady, and his father hoped that He would be tall. The young Him wished that He would be both tall and steady. So the people on the ground could only look up at His thin, stick-like legs.]
[“Where are Mom and Dad?”]
[He was puzzled, he was puzzled, he wandered among the tall buildings, looking for his little home. ]
【But He didn’t know that His parents were crushed into mud on the ground. 】
B-level sequence?
Looking at the black shadow going away, Li Ming's face suddenly became solemn. He had expected this to happen. The danger level of the Mirror City was higher than what they had experienced in the past.
The sequences of disasters that appear now are not high, but the sequences of awakened apocalypses are quite high.
Li Ming glanced at Jiang Huai beside him:
If Jiang Huai was reflected, he felt that everyone present could die.
“It feels like there is a certain pattern…”
Jiang Huai stood there, muttering to the wall in confusion: "I just don't know if this is a special case..."
What is he looking at?
Li Ming blinked his eyes in confusion. He bent down to look at the wall, and saw pairs of big eyes opening in the cracks of the wall, as densely packed as the branches and leaves of a creeper.
Li Ming: “!”
[Disaster: Eyes in the Shadows (Reflection)]
[Disaster sequence: E-234 scent tracking, E-66 night vision, E-112 deformity, F-11 action restriction]
【Note: Be careful of the eyes in the shadows. They live in the shadows, as quietly as the shadows themselves. But don't be afraid, the 'eyes' are not dangerous, the dangerous thing is——
【A monster covered with eyes.】
"Just now I could only see the legs, and now I can only see the eyes." Jiang Huai said to himself, "Maybe we can see the mouth later."
"And they don't seem to attack people actively."
Li Ming: “…”
Li Ming strongly disagreed: "This is not a reason for you not to remind me."
"Is it too late to remind you now?"
Li Ming's heart suddenly felt uneasy. He turned his head stiffly and saw a headless girl holding her head in her hands standing under the turned-off traffic light at the intersection at the end of the street.
The bloody head asked the moment he noticed the two people's gazes:
"Brother, have you seen my head?"
[Disaster: The little girl with her head removed (reflection)]
[Disaster Sequence: C-220 Cognition Correction, E-112 Deformation]
[Note: A little girl who likes to ask strangers where her head is. If you answer that you haven't seen it, you will be beaten to death by the angry little girl. If you answer that you have seen it, she will happily take off your head and give it to you. ]
[Of course, the way to avoid it is very simple——]
[Don't answer anything, just pretend you don't see Him. The little girl's interest comes and goes quickly. Her biggest hobby is kicking a ball. As for where the ball is? You guess.]
"This time I finally met someone who took the initiative..."
Jiang Huai sighed about this, but before he could finish his sigh, he was pulled away by Li Ming, whose eyes had lost their luster.
Li Ming said weakly: "Let's find a place to live."
The types of monsters they saw along the way simply broadened their horizons: butterflies flapping their wings in the mirror reflection, poisonous vines making their home on the walls of the building, and sheep-faced men carrying axes and wandering in the thick fog at midnight...
Unfortunately, Li Ming's eyes were seriously injured.
"It turns out that seeing too much information about a monster can be painful."
Jiang Huai handed Li Ming a hot towel and sighed, "Then I suddenly feel that I have a great talent."
"Don't say sarcastic words."
Li Ming covered his eyes with a towel and said dully, "I just didn't expect retribution to come so quickly."
He had experienced the negative feedback of overdrawing his talent in the academy copy. At that time, Li Ming felt that his mind was blank and he could not keep up with the conversations with the people around him.
For no apparent reason, a thin, solid gray curtain appeared between the world and him.
Li Ming felt like a homeless wandering soul at that time, standing lonely on one side of the gray curtain, watching the bustling noises and laughter of people on the other side.
"People really shouldn't overestimate themselves." Li Ming gritted his teeth and said.
Jiang Huai shrugged helplessly after hearing this.
He gently lifted a corner of the curtain and observed the monsters wandering on the street: "They seem to be independent individuals..."
The monsters in the Academy Domain are all related to the school. The monsters in the Rainy Night Domain are of only one type, but the monsters in the Mirror Domain have no similar features in appearance and behavior.
He gave up looking for the same action after encountering four or five monsters.
"I think..." Li Ming slowly took off the towel, looked at Jiang Huai calmly and said, "They should be the disasters that appear before the catastrophe and can act independently outside the domain."
Jiang Huai fell silent after hearing this.
He turned his head and stared at the slender black shadow that he had just met not long ago and said, "You are right. They are indeed the kind of disaster that Cui Yinyin described. In this way..."
"Should humans be thankful for the emergence of the Disaster Realm?"
“It’s hell.”
Li Ming was frightened by Jiang Huai's words and quickly shook his head: "It would be better if it didn't happen at all, but since it has already happened, we can only accept it. After all, we can't stop these things from happening."
"I mean..."
Li Ming's eyes suddenly turned sharp: "When do you think they will start attacking people?"
The disasters before the catastrophe mentioned by Cui Yinyin will always start to attack indiscriminately at a certain time period, so the disasters in the current area...
Is it the same?
