The department store was a bit empty. Not many people were interested in the clothes, home appliances, jewelry, and cosmetics upstairs. There were only a small number of zombies inside the building.
Most of the zombies were in the dining area on the top floor, but the food there was very limited and had long been taken away by the survivors who came to explore.
Yuan Sen's expression became more and more solemn. This mutant was in the women's clothing area on the fourth floor, and they would be there soon.
For safety reasons, several people take the escalator so that they can observe the surrounding situation at all times.
"It's here, Captain, on the fourth floor. The dark energy on this floor is too dense..."
When they arrived at the fourth floor, they opened their eyes wide in surprise. Unlike the other floors that retained the pre-apocalyptic appearance, this floor had changed a lot, as could be seen at a glance.
There were all kinds of mirrors everywhere, plus there were already many fitting mirrors in the women's clothing area. From the moment they entered this floor, they could feel people's shadows everywhere.
"What's going on... Was this done by a mutant?!"
How could someone be so idle after the apocalypse that they would fill this place with mirrors? But zombies can't do that, right?
"Did Lao Yuan sense the other party's position?"
Yuan Sen looked around. Dark energy was everywhere, but it was thick in some places and thin in others. It seemed as if the sphere where the dark energy gathered had disappeared out of thin air.
He shook his head. "You can still see the sphere of energy gathering outside, but it disappeared when you came in. But this is definitely the floor..."
Yuan Sen didn't react. They were in the dark energy sphere, so it was normal that they couldn't see it.
Xia Yiqing has discovered the thorny nature of the situation. Even Yuan Sen cannot track down where the other party is hiding. The other party's methods are very clever.
"hehe……"
"Xiao Wen, were you the one who laughed just now?"
"I didn't. Did you hear it too? I thought I heard it wrongly!"
A sudden laugh sounded, sounding like that of a little girl.
“La… la la…”
Now the eerie voice sounded like humming a ballad, which was very abrupt in the empty shopping mall. The four people looked around nervously.
"Isn't it a zombie? Why can it make such a sound?!"
"Ah!! In the mirror! In the mirror!!"
Xiaowen pointed at the mirror in front of her in panic, as if she had discovered something horrible.
"The me in the mirror just now was smiling at me! I clearly wasn't smiling!!"
The others looked at the mirror that Xiaowen was pointing at, but didn't notice anything unusual.
"Xiao Wen, don't scare me. Now is not the time to joke..."
"I'm not kidding! It's true!!!"
Xiaowen wanted to cry but had no tears. She had just clearly seen that all the other mirrors were normal, only the self in that mirror did not look like herself.
"You're just too nervous. How could a zombie be in the mirror..."
The teammates comforted him and continued to move forward.
They were glad that it was daytime. If they had come at night and heard the horrible laughter and songs, they would probably have been so frightened that their judgment would have been affected.
"In the mirror!"
Xia Yiqing shouted, and the mirror in front of him shattered under his attack, making a "crash" sound, and the mirror shattered all over the floor.
Xia Yiqing also discovered that the person in the mirror was smiling at himself, and the expression was stiff and terrifying.
He suddenly felt something was wrong. No wonder this floor was full of mirrors. This mutant could actually hide itself through mirrors, but what was its means of attack?
The mirrors standing everywhere greatly affect their vision, and if they separate in such an environment, it is easy for them to hurt each other accidentally.
"Back to back! Can't leave each other's sight!"
Xia Yiqing reminded, and the four of them observed their surroundings nervously.
"Damn it, how come this zombie is so scary? It's different from the other zombies!"
They have become accustomed to bloody battle scenes, and in their eyes, zombies are no different from animals.
But the scene created by this mutant in front of him was very strange. Not only could she make sounds, she also seemed to have intelligence.
“Hehehe…”
The ethereal laughter echoed in the mall, and this time it was loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Playing tricks!"
Liu Zhen could no longer bear this kind of torture. He raised his hand and an area in front of him began to vibrate. All the mirrors in the area were shattered, leaving fragments all over the ground.
"ah!"
Liu Zhen, who had just raised his hand to attack, was pierced through the palm by a shadow missile.
The angle of this attack is the debris on the ground!
He tried hard to find the enemy, but found nothing.
"Destroying the mirror will only give her more places to hide! Captain, let's retreat. We can't deal with this opponent!"
"You can't leave. Stay with me."
The eerie voice echoed, and in the standing mirrors, several people saw their own figures in the mirrors all facing them with terrifying smiles on their faces.
They raised their hands in the mirror, dark energy continued to gather, and Xia Yiqing finally began to panic.
They were unable to resist such intensive attacks. Yuan Sen was the only one with detection abilities in the team, while the other three had attack abilities.
He believed that the best defense was offense, and Yuan Sen's presence was also to better determine the target's location. As long as the opponent was knocked down in the first place, there would be no danger.
But now, he couldn't even determine where the other party's true body was, and he had no means of protection.
“Ah! Ah!”
Liu Zhen was already panicking. He continued to smash the nearby mirrors, but found that more shadow bullets were gathering in front of the fragments.
Xia Yiqing felt desperate. Now he couldn't find a target in the attack and it was also difficult to escape. Was his team going to die here?
Countless shadow bullets were fired at them, but in despair they found that they felt no pain.
"Deputy leader?!"
Jichuan stood in front of them and moved them to the entrance of this floor.
Xia Yiqing looked at Ji Chuan gratefully, "Deputy Chief, this mutant can actually hide in the mirror and launch an attack!"
Ji Chuan nodded. The figures in the mirror had crazy expressions. More shadow missiles shot towards here, but flew into the black hole in front of them.
Xia Yiqing and others were very surprised. They didn't expect Ji Chuan to have such a method. Such defensive ability is simply the nemesis of all flying ballistic moves.
Ji Chuan raised his hand, and the mirrors actually gathered towards the central area of this floor, as if there were invisible walls pushing the mirrors from all directions.
Xia Yiqing finally realized how much Ji Chuan had let down that day. This is a space-related ability. From the current performance, it can not only transfer and defend, but also attack like what is happening now.
Such a complex performance is undoubtedly a special ability.
But what about the ice and fire powers and amazing speed that day?
Xia Yiqing couldn't understand what kind of supernatural power could have such complicated manifestations. The deputy leader in front of him was unfathomable.
"It ruined my plan! Damn it!"
They thought the mirrors were being pushed toward the center area, where the enemy must be, but they didn't expect the sound to come from behind them. It was a display window, and the dark background made the glass reflect light.
Just as everyone reacted and turned around, the shadow missile had already shot in front of them. Even if they had defensive measures, it was too late at this distance.
