The taste of demon blood gradually spread in her mouth. Yuan Yuanyuan had only drunk human blood before, and this was her first time drinking demon blood. The taste was actually a little different from what she had imagined.

Hot, burning, with a sweet, fishy taste...burning her esophagus.

She looked at the mirror demon opposite her, and immediately realized that he was different, because that person smiled at her, and a gentle smile appeared on his face that looked exactly like hers.

He whispered to Yuan Yuanyuan, "Long time no see, how have you been lately?"

…

Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly felt the dagger in her hand tremble.

But she didn't know why she suddenly shook like this.

She looked at the mirror demon opposite her who looked exactly like her, and suddenly felt a little strange. She didn't know why, but suddenly she felt that the person opposite her looked very familiar.

It’s not that this person looks exactly like her...it’s as if another person suddenly appeared in her mind.

She is tall, with fair skin and long hair tied up.

It seemed... vaguely, that she had met such a person before and had talked to him.

When did it happen?

Suddenly, a sweet and fishy smell began to spread in the air.

The mirror monster on the opposite side did not show a strong discomfort with the smell like other monsters. Instead, it closed its eyes and took a deep breath happily.

"Yiqi, you are still so straightforward."

…

On a small bed, a girl was tossing and turning.

The room was very quiet, but the girl seemed to have seen something and was restless even in her sleep.

Of course, she was the only one in the room, so no one noticed that something was wrong with her.

After struggling for a while, the girl fell into sleep again. On the surface, it seemed as if she had just had a nightmare and the nightmare was over.

Only the person in the dream knows that this is not the case...her current condition seems to be worse than when she was struggling just now.

Gao Ling looked at the situation in front of her and suddenly she felt like something was wrong with her. Just now she was sure that she came here to take a nap after drawing comics, but now she was suddenly not sure.

If this is a dream... this scene is too clear, and my brain is too lucid.

Afterwards, she thought about it for three seconds and silently pinched her arm...

Ouch! It doesn't hurt!

Gao Ling was embarrassed.

She maintained this lucid dream, slowly looking at the scene in front of her that was filled with white mist. She felt that she might be possessed, but this was the first time she had such a haunted dream, and she didn't know how to wake up.

Gao Ling then pondered for a while, and suddenly raised a hand to the sky and shouted, "I agree to join you!"

"Balala the Fairies transform!"

"Eat grapes without spitting out the skins!"

Well, it seems there is no other way. Gao Ling withdrew his hand and walked towards the white mist in front of him.

She didn't know how thick the white fog in front of her was, but it always gave her a sense of danger, reminding her of a newspaper movie she had seen before - The Fog.

A father ran away with his goose when the doomsday came. Later, he felt that his goose could not survive the doomsday, so he killed the goose first. As soon as he killed the goose, the rescue team arrived... Yes, it was such a newspaper movie. Gao Ling still thinks that the director might have been stimulated by something.

She didn't know how long she had been walking. Just as she began to feel a little scared, the mist suddenly dissipated and light appeared before her eyes.

Gao Ling's eyes blurred and she looked around with frowned brows. She seemed to have walked to someplace accidentally... This place looked familiar to her. It was near a coffee shop at the corner downstairs. She saw the sign of the coffee shop, but could not smell the aroma of coffee that often wafted out of it.

Why did you dream about here?

Gao Ling turned another corner and suddenly cried out. The glass on the other side of the cafe had all shattered, and pieces were scattered on the ground. Half of the street was affected by the glass, and the tiny fragments were scattered on the ground. If you were not careful and stepped on them, your feet might bleed.

She carefully moved around it, feeling an indescribable strangeness in the scene before her. There was no one on the street, and no one in the cafe either. She saw blood on the ground, but she didn't hear anyone screaming.

Gao Ling quietly squatted down and tied her shoelaces, ready to run. She was now listening carefully to the sounds nearby, fearing that an egg or a black and white bear would suddenly pop out, but if that happened, she would have to be prepared.

She continued walking forward, along the flower beds on both sides of the road, until she came to a slightly empty place.

Only when she walked there did she suddenly discover the only difference in this dream.

There were two people standing there.

Gao Ling looked at the two people over there and suddenly realized that they probably couldn't see him, because neither of them turned their heads towards this side, they were just looking at each other.

She was suddenly startled because she found that she saw a familiar person.

How could he be in my dream? Gao Ling himself was surprised.

She thought to herself, oh my god, I actually dreamed about my idol… What did she do before going to sleep? She must accumulate experience so that she can dream about it again next time.

Yuan stood on the left, and the person on his right was a little taller than him.

Gao Ling found that he couldn't see the face of the person on the right clearly, it was blurry, but the person on the right was wearing the same clothes as Yuan, he was tall, his hair was tied in a braid with a red rope, and his skin looked a little pale.

Yuan was holding a knife in his hand, and the person opposite him was also holding a knife in his hand. Both of them looked calm on the surface, so Gao Ling did not notice the cat stuff inside at first.

So when she came a little closer, Gao Ling's mind suddenly went blank.

…

The knife in the hand of the person opposite whose face could not be seen had already stabbed into Yuan's lower abdomen, and the person whose face could not be seen also had a lot of blood and wounds on his body.

The red color spread out on the ground, extending into the invisible black.

Gao Ling even heard the sound of some kind of sticky liquid flowing, bit by bit, like some kind of insect gnawing at her brain.

The red color slowly spread to her feet, and the space seemed to echo with a clear shattering sound, crisp and heart-pounding.

This is... the sound of glass breaking, countless broken glass falling to the ground, crackling.

Gao Ling's mind went blank for a few seconds, and suddenly she came to her senses. She tried to touch the knife that had stabbed into Yuan's abdomen, but found that she couldn't touch it no matter what she did.

This was a phantom. Her fingers passed through Yuan's body as if passing through mist.

Is this... a dream?

Gao Ling touched it a few more times, but her fingers began to tremble and she couldn't touch it, but she was extremely scared at this time.

An indescribable feeling of fear rose in her heart, and she suddenly looked up at Yuan's face.

Yuan lowered his head with his long bangs drooping. The two were so close that Gao Ling could even see his eyes under his bangs just by looking up.

It was the first time she was so close to him, so close that she could even hear his heavy breathing.

Being so close for the first time gave Gao Ling a strange feeling in her heart, but she almost ignored this feeling because when she saw the dagger on Yuan’s lower abdomen, there was almost nothing else left in her mind.

Yuan's lips were extremely red, more than one shade redder than her previous impression, but his face was extremely pale, looking even paler than when Gao Ling saw him in the bathroom before.

Gao Ling got so close that she could hear two people talking. When they were talking, almost only their lips were moving.

She trembled and moved her ear towards it.

"Is this the way old friends meet?" The man whose face could not be seen smiled and said, "You are still so ruthless."

Yuan could only breathe heavily, and Gao Ling found that he could hardly utter a word.

Who is the ruthless one here? You almost stabbed him to death! Gao Ling suddenly had an inappropriate thought in his mind.

Before she could say anything else, she suddenly saw a flash in front of her eyes. When she turned around, the two people who were beside her just now were suddenly ten meters away. The two people were fighting each other fiercely, and every sound was deafening.

The ground nearby suddenly began to crack into more cracks. As the ground under the faceless man's feet gradually spread out, the ground began to shake wildly. There were loud noises of clanging in the nearby shops, counters fell down, and vases shattered.

Everything is in chaos, and everything is unclear.

Gao Ling felt that the breathing around her was gradually getting higher. Suddenly, she smelled a scent, but she herself didn't know whether it was real or fake.

Sweet, spicy, and hot.

The demonic marks on Yuan's face had spread to his neck, and his red eyes were flashing blood, making him look almost like a human. He had more and more demonic features, and with each addition, he became more terrifying.

For a moment, Gao Ling felt that he was more like a beast than a person.

The dagger in his hand suddenly became long and white, like a long crescent.

But Gao Ling saw that the dagger was like... a bone.

Yuan's eyes flashed with a red light that Gao Ling could not see clearly. The two men fought for a while, and suddenly stopped again. Gao Ling saw that the red on the ground had spread to a large area, which was where Yuan was.

He covered his belly and his lips seemed to grow even redder.

"You shouldn't have come back alive. If you hadn't come back alive, nothing would have been fine." The man opposite, whose face couldn't be seen clearly, spread his hands helplessly.

"Yes, if we die, all this will be gone." Yuan said softly.

"I forgot to tell you that although I'm not as powerful as you, I didn't expect that I'm still somewhat useful now." The monster whose face couldn't be seen said slowly, "I went to their place and got a lot of information from them. They seemed to hate you very much. They think you are a traitor who has become cowardly because of old age."

"They don't seem to be very smart." Yuan smiled, "No one seems to be very smart."

"Yes." The man on the other side raised his hand. "Actually, this is very unfair to you. I know you are more powerful than me. If I want to get something out of you, it may take you twice as long. But how can you stop them? They are all crazy now. They want to spread the war because only war can break the current situation. After the war is won, we can make demands on them just like humans make demands on us."

Yuan stood up while holding his lower abdomen. Gao Ling felt that he might not be able to stand steadily, but he still tried hard to stand up.

She suddenly realized that...these two people should know each other and be very familiar with each other.

In the tone that Yuan used to speak to someone he knew well, he said, "So you went to the anti-war faction and became a spy... just like I came here and became a spy."

As he was talking, he suddenly vomited blood.

"Use less magic." The faceless monster on the other side suddenly spoke softly. Gao Ling felt that his voice was like coaxing a long-time friend. "In your current situation, the less magic you use, the less offense you will suffer."

Yuan lowered his head. The redness in his eyes gradually faded away, and the blood in his body stopped flowing. However, Gao Ling did not think this was a good thing. The Yuan in front of her gave her a frightening feeling of exhaustion.

"Why did you come here?" Yuan's voice was soft and confused. He really couldn't stand, so he half-knelt down, like a person who had begun to lose his way.

"I don't want this to happen either." The man whose face couldn't be seen said to Yuan, "But you're back. Actually, I came here with the intention of dying. If I kill you, I'll erase a mistake. If you kill me... then the people in the anti-war organization will hate you even more. I don't want to see that happen."

"So you're fine with letting me kill you?"

…

This mirror demon and Yiqi used to be brothers. Yuan Yuanyuan didn't know why, but some things suddenly popped up in her mind inexplicably.

She remembered that they had attended classes together, used the same cup, slept in the same bed, and appeared on the battlefield together.

Yiqi is a member of the Blood Jade Demon Army, and this person is not. However, they were very good comrades at that time.

As she thought about it, Yuan Yuanyuan started to shed tears for some reason.

She felt as if she couldn't cry at this moment, but she couldn't help crying. When she cried, it was as if she was looking at a stranger, squatting in the corner, with his head buried, quiet without a sound.

——Who is crying?

Gao Ling was almost going crazy with anxiety, but she couldn't wake up from this dream that seemed so real.

She wished she could pinch her arms until they turned blue, but the monster in front of her whose face could not be seen slowly squatted down and faced the half-kneeling Yuan.

No! Don't let him kill me! He...he has bad intentions!

Gao Ling's tears burst out completely this time. She wanted to go forward and separate the two people, but she could only see phantoms.

So she could only watch the man helplessly as he smiled slightly and gently stroked Shang Yuan's face with his fingers, a faint red light emerging from between his fingers.

"Have you ever... considered me a friend?" Suddenly, Yuan, who seemed to have fainted, said these words softly, as if he were talking in a dream.

The mirror demon on the opposite side was stunned.

friend?

His eyes seemed blank for a moment.

…

Actually, there is... When two people are together, there are still those memories that make people laugh every time they recall them.

Things that happened a hundred years ago... can still be remembered now, which is actually a happy thing.

His eyes were gentle for a moment. Then he opened his mouth and wanted to say something...

A knife suddenly appeared behind him, like a sinister poisonous snake that suddenly appeared and stabbed into his back fiercely.

…

Gao Ling next to him screamed in fright.

She saw it clearly. Yuan, who seemed to be unconscious, suddenly jumped up and stabbed the bone knife in his hand fiercely into the body of the person opposite who was stunned for a moment.

The person on the opposite side was very close, almost only a finger's distance between the two of them.

The expression on his face was as if he had never known the person in front of him.

Yuan in front of me raised his head, with tears and something deep in his eyes.

Gao Ling, who still had tears on his face, suddenly became speechless, like a chicken with its neck pinched.

The man opposite him seemed to suddenly realize something. He looked at Yuan, and a little smile suddenly appeared on his face. This smile was different from the previous one, and it was much more pleasing to the eye.

"You're still amazing."

"But I'm not that bad, because I have a gift for you." He gestured around, "They all saw you killing me."

Gao Ling's heart suddenly tensed.

"Since I'm dead, then you should be fine." The person whose face could not be seen across from me gradually broke like a mirror. "Maybe in the future, you can still see me on the Naihe Bridge."

Gao Ling looked behind him, and there were many shadowy figures, many of whom looked like phantoms, and whose faces he couldn't see clearly.

When did they come? Gao Ling's mind was spinning rapidly, and he suddenly realized that they had just arrived!

Each of them is very far away.

Gao Ling's heart suddenly tightened, but she found that the dream was not over and she could continue.

She stood up and followed Yuan. He picked up the body of the dead monster and walked forward. Gao Ling found that in this dream she could actually keep up with Yuan's speed, so she followed closely behind him.
