Fantasy Amusement Park
Chapter 108: Hi
The young man lost his balance and fell straight backward.
His pupils slightly contracted, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. The next second, his figure disappeared into the mirror, completely swallowed, leaving no trace behind.
The sealed room returned to silence.
The narrow room was empty, tightly locked, and pitch-black, with only a flickering candlelight on the candlestick.
Outside the mirror room.
Familiar cheerful sounds rang out, and the colorful lights on the spin wheel lit up. With a “swish,” the mission slip was pulled back.
Seeing the changes on the spin whe, the few people waiting outside instantly became excited.
“The mission is completed?”
Yun Bilan jumped up.
Elise, who was close to the spin wheel, leaned over to take a look and said, “Yes, it’s done.”
The button popped out slowly, and pressing it would continue the lottery.
It seemed that the single-person mission was successfully completed.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, as time passed, the door did not open as everyone expected.
Wen Ya turned her head to look at the still tightly closed mirror room, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes: “What’s going on? Why hasn’t that guy come out yet?”
Yun Bilan walked to the front of the door and tentatively reached out to push.
The door remained motionless.
Clearly, this room could only be opened from the inside.
The few people exchanged glances, seeing the doubts in each other’s eyes, “Has something happened?”
“What should we do?”
“In this situation, all we can do is wait.”
Yun Bilan turned to look at Wen Ya, who was standing by the window, “Is there any movement over there?”
Before Wen Jianyan performed the solo mission, he asked them to keep a close eye on the room where the group of people had entered to prevent losing track of them.
Wen Ya shook her head.
Since that group of people entered that room, they had never come out.
Yun Bilan breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good then.”
She turned her head to look at the tightly closed mirror room and said slowly, “It’s already at this point; we should give our teammate some trust.”
***
Wen Jianyan plunged into the mirror.
He tightly shut his eyes subconsciously and his body instinctively maintained a self-protective rigid posture, his long eyelashes trembling involuntarily.
It was very quiet around him.
Unlike the closed silence from before, this was a pure, undisturbed silence without any impurities—no wind, no sound.
It felt cold.
The bone-chilling cold penetrated his skin, causing a physiological shudder.
He cautiously opened his eyes just a little, peering out from the slit between his eyelashes.
Darkness.
Before him was a dense, seemingly unyielding darkness.
And just less than two steps away from him, Wen Jianyan saw the room he was in just moments ago—it was as if a large invisible door had opened in the darkness, allowing him to see the bathtub not far away and the flames burning and dancing.
…It was indeed the same room as before.
Wen Jianyan was startled, his eyes widening slightly as his gaze scanned across the frame of the “door” in front of him.
The size of the “door” matched exactly with the mirror inside the room.
Could it be…
He suddenly jumped up from the ground and turned to look around.
All around him were thick and seemingly tangible shadows. However, unlike the previous few times, they didn’t seem to be following the orders of the master and showed no signs of aggression.
On the contrary, these viscous and dense shadows meandered unconsciously around him, silently and slowly passing by his side, brushing against his wrists, ankles, and exposed skin, flowing over him like some cold, soft-blooded creature, nonchalantly entwining with his body.
This seemingly intangible yet unavoidable sense of touch made Wen Jianyan’s scalp tingle.
He involuntarily took two steps back, lifting his arm, trying to break free from the entanglement and embrace of the shadows.
However, this space seemed to be composed of these “shadows.” Even when Wen Jianyan tried to avoid them, he only stepped into another patch of shadows, as if he was wading through semi-fluid matter. The shadows gathered more tightly around him, creating ripples as he moved.
From his waist, shoulders, thighs, wrists, ankles—everywhere, he could feel that cold, unconscious, and seemingly flowing touch.
“…”
A sense of terror crawled up his spine, and Wen Jianyan froze in place.
However, due to his previous movement, Wen Jianyan had moved away from the mirror he entered through, and a broader space appeared before him.
He was stunned, turning his head to look around, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
—In this boundless darkness, there was more than just this one door.
In all directions, large or small passages were scattered throughout the darkness, and each passage led to a completely different scene, almost like…
Another world.
In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:
[???]
[What is this place? Why do I have no memory of it at all?]
[Me too… I’ve watched the Fantasy Amusement Park instance many times, but I’ve never seen this place!]
[Really? The mirrors in this room have this function? I never noticed it before!]
[Wait, look at the third mirror on the right. Isn’t that the anchor of the live stream room I just came from?]
In the video, a familiar anchor was moving carefully outside the mirror, seemingly completely unaware of the other world within the mirror.
[Dammit dammit, what the heck is going on?]
[Oh my god… Is everything interconnected?]
[!!! My whole family is shocked for a hundred years,!]
[Wait, this place looks a bit familiar to me…]
[What do you mean?]
[The first instance the anchor played, the one in the Decai Middle School, the final world he entered, wasn’t it like this?]
[I remember now, that’s right!]
[Oh my god, it’s all connected, it’s all connected! Don’t you guys remember? When the anchor was doing the Crazy Little Train project just now, didn’t he cheekily ask the boss for cheats?]
[But after the boss agreed, didn’t he throw him out… What the hell?!]
[This, this, this! No wonder we’ve never seen this scene in the Fantasy Amusement Park!! This is the territory of that damn boss!]
After a brief daze, Wen Jianyan quickly understood the situation.
His gaze swept over the mirrors, observing the familiar and unfamiliar scenes, and a glimmer of excitement flashed across his face.
Wow!!!
So, the cheat that guy promised is this!!!
Damn, this is awesome!!
Finally, his useless Bishop title has some use!
Wen Jianyan looked around, but the man’s figure didn’t seem to be within his sight.
He turned to look at the mirror through which he had entered.
The tall “door” was open behind him, and he could leave from here and return to that narrow room if he wanted.
But why bother?
A glint of light passed through Wen Jianyan’s eyes, and a fleeting smile appeared on his lips.
Such a convenient opportunity, it would be a waste not to use it?
He took a step forward and walked into the distance.
The shadows were stirred by his movements, and the sensation of being touched and enveloped became more distinct. However, Wen Jianyan had reconciled with it by now.
Although it felt a bit strange, what did it matter?!
Even the mirrors looked much more pleasing to the eye now.
Wen Jianyan’s eyes slightly narrowed as he quickly scanned through each mirror. The perspective shown inside the mirrors was different from the outside, but he tried his best to match them in his mind.
He took out his phone from his pocket, opened the photo album, and tried to correlate the scenes and memories one by one.
Soon, Wen Jianyan found a pattern.
It seemed that the entire three-dimensional project was compressed into a flat plane. If a room didn’t have a mirror, it wouldn’t appear in this space. The size and shape of the “door” were also closely related to the form of the mirrors in each room.
Following this pattern, Wen Jianyan chose a direction and proceeded based on his memory.
Not this one.
Not this one either.
This one…
Suddenly, Wen Jianyan’s eyes flickered, and his gaze stopped on one of the mirrors.
There, he saw a familiar head of blonde hair.
—Found you.
The young man squinted his eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips without a trace.
***
“This chest is well chosen.”
Hui Cheng gazed at the opened treasure chest in front of him, a hint of amusement crossing his face.
Unexpectedly, the second project they chose to enter was a welfare project. Although it couldn’t be said to be completely without danger, compared to the previous project, it was overly mild.
Since entering this project, his luck had been surprisingly good. In the first starting room alone, he turned fourteen keys, and in the subsequent rooms, there were fewer empty rooms and more treasure chests. The items found in the open chests were mostly positive props, and even if there were negative ones, they were easily resolved. Everything was going smoothly, and they were like fish in water.
Although Blond still looked scared and cautious, like a beaten dog, as time passed, everything went smoothly, and he seemed to relax somewhat. Although he still occasionally nervously looked out the window, he no longer bothered them with his groundless fears.
“It’s all thanks to the boss’s good luck; otherwise, we wouldn’t have been so successful.”
Lao San flattered.
“Hahaha, alright, stop boasting. It’s time to go.” Hui Cheng laughed and said, taking the candies from the treasure chest and putting them in his pocket.
At this moment, Blond spoke, “Um… Boss.”
The group turned to look at him, “What’s up?”
Blond shrank slightly under their gaze, but he still gathered courage and pointed in one direction, “I mean, how about opening this door next?”
Since entering this project, Blond had become much more normal, no longer disturbing everyone with his fantasies and fears. The atmosphere within the team had finally eased.
“…” Hui Cheng scanned the guy up and down before finally showing some mercy, “Alright, we’ll follow your lead.”
Blond breathed a sigh of relief without showing it.
The group walked outward.
In the room below.
Suddenly, Wen Ya spoke, “They moved.”
“What?” Yun Bilan jumped up and rushed to the window, looking towards the room far above their heads.
“Oh no.” Her expression sank.
The group of people chose a direction that happened to be their blind spot. If they continued forward, they would likely move out of their line of sight. However, Wen Jianyan was still inside the solo mission, and this situation put them in a dilemma.
In the room above.
Blond lowered his head and looked down through the window’s gap.
The team that had been following closely behind him for some time now had been in that room for over ten minutes. Even when they were ready to leave, the other side seemed to remain motionless. Moreover, the persistent target of the mission hadn’t appeared in his view for a long time.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Blond’s mouth, and for the first time, a relaxed expression appeared on his face.
As long as they continue in that direction, they should be able to shake off this group of people soon. His patience and forbearance during this time were finally paying off.
Great.
He withdrew his gaze and was about to follow his teammates and walk outward.
Suddenly, an inexplicable chill attacked him. A feeling of being watched came from a certain angle in the room, making him tense from head to toe.
Blond shivered.
What, what’s going on?
He subconsciously turned his head to look.
The next second, his pupils contracted, and his face turned pale.
In the mirror beside him, a familiar figure of a young man faintly appeared. The guy squinted his eyes, slowly curved his lips, and revealed a terrifying smile that was enough to make Blond’s heart and liver tremble.
Hi.
He said.
The author has something to say:
The truth is, people will slowly become the kind of person they hate.
Being dragged into the mirror: infuriating.
Dragging someone else into the mirror: satisfying!
Wu Zhu: He appeared, but not fully.
