Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

"Sis, I saw you running ahead of me. Is it a ghost?" Li Ming's voice was filled with horror.

At this moment, Xu Jiawei, who was in the left rear position, also saw Li Ming run from one side to the other.

"Ignore them, let's keep going." Xu Jiawei's voice was very calm.

As they continued forward, more and more strange things appeared. Almost everyone witnessed something bizarre. However, the countless mirror images and the unchanging, repetitive atmosphere made them all restless and irritable.

Li Ming's eyes were blurry; otherwise, how could he see himself smiling at himself in the mirror?

Li Ming rubbed his eyes and, sure enough, he wasn't mistaken. The person was indeed smiling at him, but it wasn't a mirror image; it was the real person.

"Sister!" Xu Jiawei also saw the mirror image of Li Ming, so she took out her bow and arrow and shot an arrow. The mirror image of Li Ming dodged it, rolled forward, and Si Yunming raised his sword to slash. However, this fake Li Ming only dodged and clearly attacked the real Li Ming. The fake Li Ming kicked Li Ming into the mirror, and the two Li Mings disappeared from everyone's sight.

Xu Jiawei stepped forward to examine the mirror and found that it was completely undamaged. At that moment, Bai Yu's reflection reached out from the mirror and dragged Bai Yu into it.

As Bai Yu disappeared, Si Yunming's mirror image appeared. Si Yunming stared coldly at his own reflection and said, "Enter the mirror." He then followed his reflection into the mirror.

"Perhaps the secret to this level lies in the mirror. Let's go in too." After saying that, Xu Jiawei followed her reflection into the mirror. The world inside the mirror was not much different from the outside world, except that the environment was darker.

Looking at the mirror image ahead, Xu Jiawei followed. The mirror image giggled and ran faster and faster. Xu Jiawei followed behind, afraid of losing it.

After circling around a few times, she saw another version of herself on the road, or rather, the five of them. Li Ming said, "Sis, why did I see you running ahead of me? Did I see a ghost?"

Damn it, didn't this just happen? Why did she see her past self? Could it be that time is chaotic in this mirror maze? The figure Li Ming saw back then must be her present self.

After Xu Jiawei had been following the mirror image for most of the day, the mirror image stopped.

[Third Layer Quest: Defeat the Demonized Mirror Image]

It turned out that the mirror image was her demonized self. The mirror image had the same health as her. Xu Jiawei took out her bow and arrow, and it still felt a little strange to fight herself.

However, when the mirror image of Xu Jiawei took out a bow and arrow, and the two of them drew their bows in the exact same posture, Xu Jiawei could no longer smile.

The posture and movements of the person opposite were exactly the same as Xu Jiawei's. If this mirror image disguised itself as her, no one would be able to recognize it. Xu Jiawei was startled by her own thoughts.

Since it was her own mirror image, with the exact same attack patterns, Xu Jiawei could take this opportunity to observe where her weaknesses lay and correct her shortcomings.

When Xu Jiawei took out her long knife, her mirror image, Xu Jiawei, also took out her long knife. The two exchanged blows, neither able to gain the upper hand.

In the end, the two were left with only their golden bodies to withstand the attack. Seeing this, Rainbow hurriedly crashed into the mirror image of Xu Jiawei. The mirror image of Xu Jiawei seemed very surprised. After about a minute, a mushroom that looked exactly like Rainbow started fighting with Rainbow. Even non-humans can be replicated. This mirror maze is really disgusting.

Her weakness is her unstable lower body; however, her mirror image has a strong learning ability. When she attacks her mirror image's lower body, the mirror image immediately learns her attack moves, making the battle very intense.

Xu Jiawei's eyes darkened. It takes time to replicate things in the maze, which is why they waited so long to appear. Rainbow just confirmed this. The more complex the thing, the longer it takes. So all they need to do is wait until the last moment so that she can't replicate it.

She needed to wait a little longer. Just as the ten-minute golden body effect ended, Xu Jiawei rushed forward to continue fighting the mirror image. Just now, her health had been fully restored through the title.

Xu Jiawei and the mirror image dodged each other's skills, and in the end, they were left with only single-digit health points. Whoever injured the other first would win. Xu Jiawei stopped defending and raised her long sword to slash at the mirror image. The mirror image was a little surprised, not expecting her to use a move that would lead to mutual destruction.

As Xu Jiawei approached the mirror image, she drank the intermediate-level healing potion. Before the mirror image could react, Xu Jiawei's knife had already struck it. The mirror image vanished instantly, and all the mirrors in the entire space shattered, with only one mirror faintly glowing.

This must be the exit. Xu Jiawei stepped out of the mirror and arrived directly at the entrance to the fourth floor. Xu Jiawei saw that Si Yunming had just come out of the mirror as well, so she greeted him.

The two were the first to come out, so they sat down together at the entrance and waited for the others to appear.

The next one to come out was Liu Jinwei. He must be quite a character to come out so quickly. It seems he had been hiding his true abilities all along.

After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Xu Jiawei was surprised to find that Li Ming was the next one to come out.

"Sis, you have no idea how powerful that mirror image was. Thanks to the potion you gave me, I was able to ambush and kill it. I almost died, but luckily I'm strong enough." Li Ming started bragging as soon as he came out, talking about how amazing he was and how he used his intelligence to kill the person.

Two hours later, everyone came out; not a single one was missing.

Xu Jiawei became even more vigilant. This was simply impossible. How could such a powerful mirror image have survived unscathed, unless...

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully completing the maze. However, a corrupted mirror image has infiltrated your ranks. Please find the infiltrated mirror image. (Note: The mirror image will inherit everything from you, including your account and memories. Please try other methods to detect it.)]

Just as Xu Jiawei predicted, there were mirror images mixed in with the players, and there was definitely more than one of them.

Players who received the system notification were wary of each other, and Xu Jiawei didn't know whether her teammates had been replaced.

Si Yunming said calmly, "None of us have been replaced."

Xu Jiawei was initially surprised, but then she understood everything. Seeing the confused looks on their faces, Xu Jiawei explained, "The mirror image is the opposite of us, which means our left side is her right side."

Zhang Yunting suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. We just need to find the opposite person among this group." Bai Yu and Li Ming also relaxed.

"Do you remember what these people look like?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Xu Jiawei's question stumped the group who had just relaxed, and they all shook their heads in frustration.

"I said the mirror image must be those few. They're the ones who don't fit in. Let's arrest and kill them first." Li Jiaojiao pointed at Xu Jiawei and the others with a wicked smile. She remembered who Xu Jiawei was.
