Chapter 7

Wasn't he hit by the wall and taken away?

How could he appear here?

The doubt didn't last long, and he soon understood what was happening.

It wasn't that the other person had appeared here, but that this mirror, like a television, was replaying previous events.

It was as if he had spent a great deal of effort to crawl through a passage, and then... charged towards his identical self.

Immediately after, the two Zhang Zhen fought for control of the body, causing the physical body to lose control.

The subsequent scenes were exactly the same as what he had seen in the classroom.

He hit the wall and fainted.

"Truly a case of borrowing a body to return to life, no, it's a soul possession!" Yang Yi was startled.

Although there were no more words or prompts, combining the experiences from the day, he could infer a lot of useful information.

The science popularizer's guess was very likely true.

The mirror in the sky might really connect to another world, and so-called mutants are actually... possessed by others!

Clearly mutants, yet still in a stalemate with ordinary people, should be because crossing the mirror consumes a huge amount of energy, making them not much stronger than ordinary people.

Otherwise, the original soul would be immediately destroyed, and there would be no way to speak nonsense or act strangely.

Thinking of this, his heart turned cold.

Being possessed means it's no longer you; the so-called drastic changes in personality and various oddities are all fake!

The truth is... death!

No wonder the husband working in the field was beaten to death!

Just after a successful possession, seeing someone working on her, anyone would find it unbearable.

Just as he was shocked, the image disappeared, and red text reappeared above the mirror.

Mission: Within three days, capture a [Destructive Level] illegal crosser and bring them to justice.

Reward: One bottle of Body Tempering Liquid, one set of probationary police uniform, 1 Merit Point. (Note: For the first mission, all rewards except Merit Points are given in advance.)

"Reward?"

Yang Yi indeed saw a three-inch-long jade bottle on the table in the room, which should contain the Body Tempering Liquid.

Pulling off the stopper, a rich life force surged into his body.

Hesitating for a moment, he swallowed it.

Surviving over a thousand nightmares relied on being cautious when necessary and decisive when needed.

Even if he knew the other party might have an ulterior motive, with the opportunity to change his fate right in front of him, how could he miss it!

The world after the mirror appeared had completely changed, and in a situation full of danger, strength could change everything; without it, he would only be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

This was something he was unwilling to accept.

A sweet sensation in his throat, the liquid entered his body, and the next moment, his entire body felt nourished, as if he were soaking in a hot spring, incredibly comfortable.

In an instant, all his fatigue vanished.

Although he couldn't detect all the changes, he felt that he could easily defeat his previous three selves!

Not only that, but he also felt his mind was clearer, and his memory had improved significantly.

It was clear that this substance not only increased his physical strength but also greatly enhanced his talent and potential.

His eyes sparkled.

The effect was too good!

Could it be... that without being possessed, there was still a chance to mutate?

Continuing to read, there was another sentence on the mirror.

Warning:

The Mirror Management Bureau exists at the intersection of the mirror and reality. The police uniform allows free passage, but you must exit from the same mirror you entered. If the mirror used for passage breaks, you will be trapped inside and unable to leave.

Remember this!

...

Yang Yi knew it was important for the other party to remind him so, memorized the content, and looked again. The mirror, as if it had finished all its tasks, no longer showed anything and reflected the room's layout.

He turned around.

The corridor had other doors, but for some reason, he couldn't investigate them or even see their names.

With no choice, he left the bureau and looked at his residence, which seemed to be separated by a membrane.

The police uniform slowly appeared on his skin, and with one step, he felt dizzy again.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the shoe cabinet in his residence.

"Really came out..."

Looking at the old, peeling furniture in the room, Yang Yi had never felt so close to it.

He had really thought he would be trapped inside forever.

Not only did he come out, but he also took the Body Tempering Liquid and became a probationary police officer...

It all felt like a dream.

He turned to look at the full-length mirror.

The mirror had returned to normal, showing his reflection, which seemed taller and with smoother skin. He took a few steps back and lifted the coffee table, which usually required two hands, with one hand.

His strength had indeed increased!

It was real, not a dream!

Suppressing his excitement, he quietly summarized.

This was the experience that allowed him to survive over a thousand nightmares, constantly honing good habits into instincts, so he could find more details in new environments and avoid being killed.

Currently, the known information and experiences could be summarized into three points.

First, the Mirror Management Bureau is real and exists between the mirror and reality. He was already a probationary police officer, and his main task was to capture illegal crossers, which were likely the mutants suddenly appearing on Earth.

Of course, it was unclear whether all or only some were to be captured, and how to capture them was also unclear.

Based on speculation, it was probably to drive away the possessors and save the possessed, as... according to the bureau's rules, they were illegal!

Second, since there were probationary officers, there must be regular and even higher-level officers.

Third, the [Destructive Level] mentioned by the other party, although unclear, the appearance of Zhang Zhen's image in the mirror suggested that the person who possessed him had this level of strength.

It wasn't too strong.

Otherwise, he would have definitely killed his desk mate, not just cracked his head.

After thinking everything through and finding no omissions, Yang Yi sighed in relief, only to realize he was covered in sticky, dirty substances.

The Body Tempering Liquid refined his body, making him feel reborn, and all the impurities in his body were expelled. At that moment, he felt as if he hadn't bathed for two years, covered in a foul smell.

He hurriedly took a shower, changed clothes, and it was already past 3 a.m. He quickly fell asleep on the bed.

He had a dreamless night.

It was the first good night's sleep in three years.

He got up at 6:30 a.m., had some breakfast, and walked to school.

Despite only sleeping for a little over two hours, he felt no fatigue, instead, he was full of energy.

The effectiveness of the Body Tempering Liquid was evident.

Most breakfast shops were open, and the streets were filled with people rushing to catch buses for work, indicating that survival... was more important than so-called "mutations."

This was the tragedy of ordinary people.

They could dream, but the prerequisite was to be alive.

In the classroom, discussions about mutants had not diminished after a night; instead, more information had made more people excited.

Even before entering the classroom, he saw the class divided into several groups, with seven or eight people huddled together, sharing the information they knew.

"I heard that Zhao Le from Class 1 went crazy last night... he seems to have become a mutant too!"

"Li Fuli from Class 3 is also, shouting to find an empress, and saying the Qing Dynasty is gone..."

...

Yang Yi shook his head.

Becoming a mutant means being possessed...

It's a brutal slaughter, and he really didn't know what there was to look forward to.

Of course, while others were dreaming, he already knew he was on a path completely different from others. As for how far he could go and what the outcome would be, he still needed to explore step by step.

Sitting in his seat, he waited for class to start, but his desk mate didn't come.

Asking the teacher, he learned that the injuries were too severe and the desk mate was still in the hospital receiving treatment.

Finding out the location, he went there during lunch break.

The hospital was only about 300 meters from the school. As soon as he arrived, he saw many people in camouflage uniforms guarding the important intersections.

Seeing him approach, two young men came forward: "The hospital has been temporarily requisitioned and is not open to the public. Please go back!"

"My desk mate was injured yesterday and is staying here. Can I go visit him..." Yang Yi quickly said.

"No!"

The young men were firm.

Knowing that if he tried to force his way in, he would be treated as a "mutant" and shot, Yang Yi had to step back.

How could he complete the bureau's first mission if he couldn't see him?

Just as he was in a dilemma, a tall young man, hearing the commotion, came out: "What's going on?"

The man in camouflage saluted: "Reporting to Captain Hao, this student says his desk mate was injured yesterday and is staying here, and he wants to visit."

"Desk mate?"

Frowning, Captain Hao looked over: "What's his name?"

Seeing him ask, Yang Yi thought there might be a chance to get in and was about to say the name when suddenly his face turned slightly pale.

In the mirror in the sky, the shadow of the captain in front of him appeared.

On his shoulder... were two heads.

One of them had a greenish face, and blood-red liquid slowly dripped from its eyes.

The captain in camouflage... had also been possessed by a mutant!

In an instant, Yang Yi's entire body turned cold.
