Chapter 108 The Man in the Mirror

Polnareff shouted, "Watch out! The enemy's Stand is covered in bandages and wields a sharp blade. It should have the ability to hide, so it's probably hiding nearby!"

"Everyone must be careful, lest that thing ambush you!"

However, despite everyone remaining vigilant and the atmosphere remaining extremely tense, they did not receive an attack from the enemy for a long time.

Time passed slowly, and all was quiet, as if the warning had been nothing but a false alarm.

"Has the enemy retreated?" Joseph suddenly laughed, a hint of relief on his face.

"Hehehe, this coward is probably an assassin. He missed his target and has already slipped away. Everyone, relax a little and keep going. Just be more careful on the road."

He walked towards the car with a relaxed expression, opened the hood, and seemed to be checking if the car had any problems from the collision.

"It looks like the car is damaged in the accident. I wonder if it can be repaired."

As he spoke, he climbed back into the driver's seat, fumbled around for a bit, and tried to start the engine.

"This is such a headache. It's such a hassle when the car won't start." He shook his head helplessly.

"We still have several kilometers to walk to reach our destination."

Bang, bang, bang! Powerful hands pounded on the steering wheel. "Will slapping this thing a couple of times fix it?"

Click click click...

The faint sound of a camera running echoed in the carriage, but was masked by the deliberate banging.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a photo of an extremely ugly man with both hands being right, and a mummy-like body double appearing on his back.

The man appeared to be perched atop a tree, while his double appeared distorted like a funhouse mirror, its outline resembling a teardrop.

Are the enemy still nearby?
Emerging from the carriage again, Joseph pulled out a wrench and screwdriver, opened the hood, and began fiddling with the engine, his feet naturally stepping into a mud pit.

Polnareff shouted anxiously, "Mr. Joseph! The enemy may not have left yet. Let's wait a bit, or we might be attacked on the way!"

Ok?
Using the muddy pit as cover, purple vines, which had silently penetrated the ground and entered the clothes of the group through their trouser legs, connected them together.

The vines, like tentacles, conveyed information within the group's clothing.

(Note: The enemy is still nearby, possibly lurking on top of a large tree. The Stand may be related to the water droplets!)

(Let's try to leave this forest first, creating an opening to force the enemy out!)

Water droplets? Related to water droplets?

Looking at the lingering morning mist and the dew covering the leaves and grass, everyone felt a sense of unease.

What exactly is the relationship with water droplets? Can it transform into water droplets, or can it activate its abilities through water droplets?

There were still enemies. Platinum Star's eyes, sharper than an eagle's, swept over the surrounding trees, but he found nothing unusual.

In this vast forest, the trees are so numerous and dense that finding a hidden enemy quickly is extremely difficult.

The group tacitly maintained their vigilance for a while, then gradually relaxed and walked towards their vehicles, seemingly trying to get back in and leave.

Suddenly, just as everyone was about to get into the car, a mummy-like figure was reflected in the corner of the car window, slashing a sharp blade toward Jotaro's neck.

With a soft splatter, blood splattered. Despite the platinum star covering his body, seemingly ready to defend against attacks, it appeared to offer no protection whatsoever; his carotid artery was ripped open, leaving a fatal wound.

"Jotaro!" Joseph roared, and the Hermit Purple erupted, transforming into a large purple cocoon that completely enveloped him.

The extremely thin vines penetrated directly into his carotid artery, temporarily blocking it and stopping the gushing blood.

Suddenly, seeing the reflection in the glass, Polnareff's eyes narrowed, his silver chariot armor shattered, and he swung his sword backward with terrifying speed, but still couldn't touch anything.

With a soft thud, Kakyoin's carotid artery was also torn open, leaving a fatal wound.

And then there were Avdol and Joseph, who seemed to have been injured by an invisible attack, with precise, though faint, wounds appearing on their carotid arteries.

With a bang, Fang Zheng threw the healing potion, and the fatal wounds on everyone's bodies were completely healed in the blink of an eye.

However, the enemy lurking in the shadows seemed to have discovered Fang Zheng's healing abilities and began to panic. Instead of toying with everyone like a cat playing with mice, they started attacking frequently.

His carotid artery was severed, and his eyes were gouged out...

Fortunately, the enemy's attack power did not seem very strong. Apart from attacks on the carotid artery, which could cause a fatal wound, attacks on the chest were like small dagger cuts, causing only shallow wounds and not enough to cause immediate fatal damage.

Where exactly is the enemy?
Everyone was completely baffled.

Fang Zheng, who had been observing silently for a long time, suddenly swung his sword down towards the car window.

But his sword missed its target. He immediately switched to the dragon-patterned black gold sword and slashed fiercely at the car window and rearview mirror, forcefully smashing them into pieces.

"It's light! There's something in the different car windows, something is hidden in there!"

"My attack speed couldn't keep up with his speed. He had already escaped through the car window and into the dew."

Human observation of small things has its limits.

It's like an ant on the ground; if someone walks by and doesn't specifically bend down to look, they won't even notice it.

Because a person's field of vision is limited, only the area covered by that field of vision can be seen clearly, while the rest is blurry.

The reason why things in front of us appear clear is simply because our eyes move rapidly, focusing on a narrow range to encompass everything in front of us, and then constructing a composite image in our brain.

However, Founder is different. It does not have a visual focal point, and the areas outside the visual focal point are not blurry, but remain consistently clear.

Moreover, without any thought process, Fang Zheng can simultaneously observe all areas and all details within his entire field of vision.

No matter how well the mysterious double is hidden in the mirrored world of the car window, as long as even the slightest image is revealed, it is equivalent to completely exposing Fang Zheng.

During the process of shattering the car window and the rearview mirror, even the faintest flicker of light was noticed.

"Light?" Polnareff was taken aback, then realized what he meant.

"I get it! It's a reflection! It's a mirror!"

He exclaimed incredulously, "But how could such a ridiculous thing happen? A body double can actually hide in a mirror, hidden inside the reflective surface?"

The group looked around at the beautiful scenery, the morning dew covering the trees, and the crystal-clear water droplets on the grass.

If the enemy could actually move between reflective surfaces, or even enter the world within the mirror, that would be terrifying!

If this is true, then this is simply an invincible stand-in!

This means that the entire forest, covered in morning dew, is their best hunting ground, and they are like pieces of meat in a slaughterhouse!
"Hmph! Since they're just water droplets, let's burn them all!" Abudel roared.

The red magician suddenly roared and released a blazing flame that burned an area of ​​100 meters around everyone, incinerating and evaporating all the dew.

however……

Abuder felt a sharp pain in his eyes again; his pupils had been ruptured.

Immediately afterwards, the eyes of Kakyoin Noriaki, Polnareff, Joseph, and everyone else were also destroyed.

It's the eyes!
When the surrounding dew is burned away, Polnareff's eyes become a reflective surface, and the enemy enters his eyes.

The mummy-like enemy, within the eyes, in the world of mirrors, destroyed the eyeballs of the others!

After their eyes were destroyed, the enemy entered their own eyes!
Jotaro Kujo frowned.

"Ouch!"

With a roar from Star Platinum, two fingers, sharp as swords, precisely destroyed Jotaro's own eyes.

However, when his own eyes were damaged, and he had to rely on Star Platinum's extremely sharp vision to observe, Jotaro Kujo knew that he had failed!
The mummy-like stand-in, after he deliberately destroyed his eyeballs, transformed back into an extremely tiny point of light and reflected outwards.

"It's fog!" Fang Zheng's voice rang out again. Having observed the whole thing, he now fully understood the strange Stand's ability.

"He can enter the reflective surface and harm the person in the mirror from within! The larger the reflective surface, the greater the power he can wield and the more damage he can cause!"

"Initially, everyone was in the car, and the enemy was hiding in the car window when he launched his first attack on you."

"When you are all out of the car and far away, the reflective surface of the car window cannot see you. Since the reflective surface of the water droplets is too small, the damage it can cause is very small, so it can remain hidden."

“When you approach the car window again, he will attack you again! When he is attacked by me, he will throw himself into the water droplets.”

"When the surrounding water droplets evaporate, he can still get into your eyes; when your eyes are damaged, he escapes into the fog!"

The fog that filled the morning was all where the enemy was hiding!
