Chapter 458, The Man in the Mirror

A few days later, a large number of soldiers in armor were marching along the borders of the Empire.

They are the army of a small kingdom nearby, and the kingdom is not very strong, if not very weak.

Although the kingdom occupied by Gu Erdan is not too powerful, it has hundreds of cities and tens of millions of people.

And the countries invaded by this gang are only less than forty cities, and the people are only in their early five millions.

That's it, or because this world is blessed by the gods and has abundant materials.

Among the forces on this planet, this country is definitely one of the lowest.

It's just that such a poor and weak country also has the courage to come over and touch the tiger's ass at this time.

Even if Gu Erdan didn't send him a war letter, they took the initiative to send troops over to participate in the war.

The purpose of coming to participate in the war is also very simple, not to encroach on territory, after all, there are bigwigs in front of them, and there is no chance for them to eat meat here.

But you can't eat meat, and you can still drink some soup.

Grab some supplies while you're fighting, and capture some captives to make them rich.

They are by no means the only ones who have come to join the war with this kind of thought.

The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and in the face of the guy who provoked the anger of the people, the others didn't mind coming over and falling into the well, and by the way, they took some wood back and took it back to light the fire.

It's just that by the time this force, which numbered more than 20,000 people, came to the border, it was obvious that it was already a step too late.

The original bustling village is now empty, and pots and pans can still be seen scattered on the ground.

Obviously, the villagers were in a hurry and didn't even have time to pack their things.

The officer leading the team was not surprised that the villagers would flee.

After all, no one is a fool, and such a blatant act of death will inevitably cause the crowd to attack.

If they don't run, they're really waiting to die.

It's just that how can the speed of the common people flee be as fast as the soldiers marching, as long as they chase a little, this group of guys who ran away in advance is still in the bag.

The officer guarding the city looked up at the sky, looking at the scorching sun that was gradually falling, and his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.

"Inform the soldiers that we will camp here today and rest, just so that the houses here can be broken down into wood and make a fire, so that we don't cut wood."

The adjutant next to him looked at the soldier behind him when he heard this, hesitated for a moment and whispered.

"General, the soldiers are all rushing to make a fortune, this time we are not the only team who came to fish for oil and water, although it is a good thing to rest, but if the target is cut off by others, we can't get any oil and water, I'm afraid the soldiers will ............"

Before the adjutant could finish speaking, the general raised his hand and waved, directly interrupting him.

"Don't worry, our country is relatively close to here, and it is definitely the first batch of troops to rush over, and the only ones who can run in front of us are those big countries, they are rushing to the city, and they will not grab this kind of small prey from us."

The officer, who was holding the hilt of his sword with one hand and wearing Greek-style armor, had a bright smile.

"Tell the brethren to rest well, there is still a chase waiting for us tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

The crowd scattered to light fires, and in order to save trouble, they even demolished the wooden houses, leaving only a few to protect the officers from the wind and rain.

The sky was getting dark, and around the countless bonfires that had been raised, a large number of soldiers were singing and dancing.

None of them thought they were going to lose, and they didn't even bring too many supplies.

Those few supplies are also being squandered at the moment.

For them, in the face of such a defeated enemy, the other party's supplies are their supplies.

Hit a few villages at random, chase after the villagers who escaped, and the money and food will naturally be all in hand.

As for the heavily guarded towns and cities?

That's not a bone they are willing to gnaw, so let's leave it to the armies of the great powers to deal with.

It's here that I keep drinking and bragging, while resting over the campfire.

Outside the village, the moonlit shadows suddenly distorted.

In the next moment, dozens of figures wearing Greek-style armor, but the armor was pitch-black, slowly rose from the ground.

They were all in pitch black, only one pair of eyes emitted red light, and they looked extremely terrifying.

The Man in the Mirror, one of the urban legends.

It is rumored that the mirror represents another world that is completely opposite to reality, and the self in the mirror is also a diametrically opposed existence.

Whenever you look in the mirror, once you look down to pick something up or get your eyes covered by something.

Then when you are not paying attention, the person in the mirror who always imitates your movements will stop imitating and look at you with vicious eyes.

In some special cases, when the mirror used to block the two worlds fails, your reflection will even emerge from it and attack you until it kills you completely and takes your place.

At that time, he was no different from you, and he could imitate all the details to the fullest.

If I had to say something special, it was that these guys didn't have a projection when they looked in the mirror, because they themselves were living projections.

Looking at the soldiers singing and dancing in the distance, these people in the mirror turned their heads to look at each other, and the next moment they slowly sank into the darkness and disappeared.

Around the campfire, a soldier was already staggering a little from the drink he had drunk.

Being able to drink while on the march, this guy is naturally not an ordinary soldier, but a captain.

Pulling on his armor, he dropped the bottle and stood up, walking towards the stream in the distance.

An adjutant next to him couldn't help but joke when he saw this.

"Hey! Be careful when you go to the toilet! Don't get it in the urine! ”

"You're a girl! No more nonsense, I'll pee on your head! ”

Turning around and squirting viciously, the officer came to the side of the creek, raised his hand and began to untie his pants.

Camp by water is the lowest marching criterion, after all, it is convenient to get water and dispose of garbage.

The officer, who quickly relaxed, tied his pants and prepared to turn away.

It's just that when he was leaving, he was suddenly stunned, and he slowly turned back with both hands holding his belt.

Frowning at himself in the water, the officer rubbed his eyes.

I don't know if it's dazzling just now, he actually saw his own reflection in the water, looking at him expressionlessly.

As the palms that rubbed their eyes fell, the officer looked at the reflection of his hand in the water, and reached out to shake it.

Looking at the reflection of the same movement, the officer let out a sharp breath.

"Whew, scare Lao Tzu."

"yes, you scared me too."

"Right! I just said I just finished drinking it............ Well?! ”

The officer, who subconsciously replied, suddenly sensed that something was wrong and stared at the water with wide eyes.

And there, his reflection was staring at him with wide eyes.

The officer, who gradually sensed that something was wrong, slowly touched the short sword at his waist with one hand, and stretched out his fingers with the other hand and lightly touched the water.

With a wave of waves, his own reflection in the water was instantly blurred.

Seeing that there were no accidents, the officer who was already sweating behind him instantly relaxed.

At this moment, an identical arm suddenly emerged from the water, grabbed the officer's raised wrist, and dragged him violently into the water.

With a pop, the officer, who was half in the water, struggled desperately, and at the pinch, he held the river bank with both hands, so as to avoid being pulled in.

However, before he could break free from the restraints, in the stream in front of him, one after another familiar arms came out of the water, grabbed his body indiscriminately, and forcibly dragged him in.

Before he could let out a scream, the officer who fell into the water disappeared without a trace as if he had dissolved inside.

And the sound of falling water here quickly attracted the attention of the soldiers next to him.

The dozen or so people around the campfire turned their heads to look this way, only to see their boss crawling out of the water wet.

This scene instantly caused the officers to laugh out loud.

And they laughed, and the officers who fell into the water laughed too, and the laughter gradually became hideous.

With a tilt of his head, he poured out a little stream of water in his ears, officer, no, it should be said that he was in the mirror.

The river spreads under the eyes of the man in the mirror, gradually turning into a smooth mirror, and follows him towards the crowd.

Perform! It's time to get started!
