Chapter 1245: Chapter 854 I’m Fine, Mom

Since Chen Yu was taking care of Xiao Nan, Li Changhe, who didn’t have a driver’s license, could only bring out his Earth Dragon... Number Four. It was a bicycle of rare quality.

It was a college entrance exam gift from Wang Er to Li Changhe, sturdier than the average bicycle and also featured an anti-gravity effect that could be triggered for acceleration.

Once Li Changhe accelerated to a certain threshold, he could use the bicycle to rush up tall buildings or mountain faces at a ninety-degree angle.

Actually, for players, roof-walking was not a rare feat, but Li Changhe was quite fond of this gift.

After all, compared to other Earth Dragon models, this bike could also be used in everyday life.

Moreover, Li Changhe himself was an expert at riding, even managing to drive a bicycle as fast as a sports car. If he encountered an enemy, he could try to kill them with the bicycle.

Therefore, he named it Earth Dragon Four.

Riding on Earth Dragon Four, Li Changhe headed towards the Great Wall Training Base.

However, when passing by a shopping mall, he saw a crowd of onlookers, flashing police lights, and police tape strung up.

As Li Changhe scanned the crowd, he noticed among them Zhao Qianhui and Xu Fu, both dressed in black windbreakers, and their team leader Cangyue Ming.

They were following Cangyue Ming intending to enter this furniture city, unaware of what kind of case had occurred inside.

"With the Great Wall involved, could this be some kind of emergent task? Or has some abnormality appeared?" In his mind, Yun Ting asked.

"Hard to say, but Yanyun is a ’point.’ Maybe something really did trigger," Li Changhe thought.

As Li Changhe’s level rose, his understanding became increasingly clear.

There were forty-three ’points’ worldwide, with ’points’ being the anchors where reality connects to the void.

Inside a ’point’, the chances of becoming a player were higher, tasks were triggered more frequently, and such places required protection by official forces of different countries.

For instance, the disaster fog that appeared in Yanyun was because it was a ’point,’ more prone to triggering catastrophes.

Therefore, government forces would arrange a substantial military presence inside or around a ’point’ to prevent disasters like the disaster fog.

"Let’s go and see if we can help, right? There hasn’t been a Catastrophe Warning anyway. If we can trigger a task and level up to LV14, that’d be great," Yun Ting suggested.

Li Changhe’s current level was LV13[2380/2400], just 20 points away from LV14.

No matter what task he did, he would level up.

In fact, Li Changhe’s plan was to participate in the upcoming mysterious catastrophe and, after leveling up to LV14, then take part in the Netherworld Ninety-Nine Cities task. He heard that the difficulty of that task was not low.

Unfortunately, Lady Nanzhuang mentioned the catastrophe, but the Evolution Game had not issued any warnings to date, and the start time was unknown.

If a task that could elevate him to LV14 were triggered now, that would be acceptable. Even if no task was triggered, at least he could offer some help.

Therefore, Li Changhe found a corner, put Earth Dragon Four back into his backpack, then donned the Great Wall Windbreaker, put on the hood, and headed inside the police line.

The arrival of Li Changhe surprised players like Zhao Qianhui and Xu Fu. The other players were also curious about which colleague this was, as his face was very unfamiliar.

Cangyue Ming scratched his head and said, "It shouldn’t be necessary. This phenomenon doesn’t require the deployment of someone with your level of strength."

"No worries, just passing by. What happened here?" Li Changhe asked as he walked into the mall.

The mall had been evacuated, and within the vast space, only a few Great Wall players were carrying out an investigation.

So far, no abnormalities had been found, not even in Yun Ting’s perception. There were no strange fluctuations.

"To be precise, just a strange incident occurred. No abnormality has appeared," Cangyue Ming said as he and Li Changhe entered the store.

Strangely enough, all the mirrors in the store were shattered, from full-length mirrors to vanity mirrors. They had burst from the inside out as if something had crawled out from within the mirrors.

"The incident occurred around two o’clock this afternoon when customers shopping for furniture suddenly discovered other people’s reflections in the mirrors in front of them. At the same time, similar situations occurred in other mirrors. Neither the staff nor the customers saw their own images, but rather those of other people. Afterwards, they fled the store in terror and called the police. Before the police and their nearest colleagues arrived, all the mirrors in the store had shattered."

"A type of abnormality related to mirror reflections?" Li Changhe frowned. Mirror surfaces...the Magic Mirror from Dream Cruise, the Mercury Angel from Heavenly Principle. Both possess similar abilities.

"No, according to the witnesses’ statements, they all saw humans," Cangyue Ming said. "One of the customers saw an old man with white hair, while another staff member saw a young man who looked very much like themselves. There were old and young, men and women. We cannot yet determine the specific connections, but at the very least, there is some relation between the individuals in the mirrors and those who saw them. They all said the figures felt very familiar and close."

Just then, a surprised shout came from the distance within the mall, followed by the crisp sound of a mirror shattering.

Li Changhe and Cangyue Ming’s expressions changed, and the next second, they dashed toward the source of the sound with their greatest speed.

They saw a Great Wall player standing in front of the restroom, shocked.

The mirror in front of him had completely shattered, bursting from within just like the others.

Li Changhe’s figure flickered with spatial fluctuations as he drew out the Sin Dragon Mo Blade.

He stood in front of the Great Wall player and asked in a deep voice, "What happened? What did you see?"

The other official players simultaneously felt surprised and pressured by Li Changhe, and they stood guard in various positions, warily watching the direction of the restroom.

The Great Wall player replied gravely, "There’s no need to be nervous, it was my mother...who has passed away. Upon noticing me, she tried to come out of the mirror, and that’s when it shattered. She disappeared as well."

Could it be...a departed loved one? And that loved one was attempting to leave the mirror?

The players’ complexions slightly changed.

For a moment, the players could not comprehend the nature of this strange phenomenon.

If the person in the mirror truly came out, would they really be resurrected from the dead? Were the individuals in the mirrors really indeed those loved ones?

After discussing with his colleagues for a while, Cangyue Ming could only order for all the mirrors in the mall to be sealed. They needed to conduct further exploration. The entire strange phenomenon currently seemed harmless, but they couldn’t guarantee there wouldn’t be other unexpected developments, so the officials immediately evacuated the surrounding area and prohibited anyone from entering the furniture city.

Li Changhe also sheathed his weapon, thoughtfully heading towards the exit. He had no clues regarding this incident.

However, as he passed by a store, his body stiffened momentarily, then he immediately entered the shop.

Inside that shop, there was a life-size mirror.

As Li Changhe walked by, a graceful figure quietly emerged. She had bright eyes and white teeth, dressed in a Daoist robe and carrying a large iron umbrella.

She smiled at Li Changhe and extended her hand, making a gesture.

’Are you doing okay, child?’

Li Changhe looked at the woman in the mirror and also smiled.

Then, he extended his right index finger to point at himself.

His thumb met the base of his index finger, pressing downwards.

He then held up a thumbs up, and after that, brought his index finger to his lips.

Seeing Li Changhe’s response, the woman burst into a surprised smile.

She seemed to want to reach out and touch Li Changhe’s cheek, but in an instant, the mirror shattered. Her figure disappeared in a blink....

Li Changhe stared at the broken mirror, silent for a long time.

’I’m doing well, Mom.’

(The new instance is the Mirror of Time and Space, which will be easier than before.)
