Chapter 222: Youngsters Don’t Observe Martial Arts Ethics

As the apartment became distorted and elongated, more rooms appeared. Lin Yao realized he had underestimated the mirror evil spirit. This freak had not only reflected the apartment in the mirror space but also some of the rooms with various horrible traps. These rooms were now appearing before his eyes.

Poisonous gas, mire, lasers, iron thorns, falling rocks, crossbow and arrow shooting… Lin Yao’s scalp turned numb when he saw the various kinds of dangerous rooms, which exceeded one’s imagination.

The many dangerous and obviously different rooms made Lin Yao speculate. ‘The original apartment floor is only a temporary representation. When all of us are killed, aside from some of the extremely dangerous rooms that can kill humans, the other apartment floors will disappear. The mirror will then reflect images again. The distorted rooms will then be exactly what the mirror space actually looks like… This might only be the second floor.’

The original apartment floor was only a representation, so it was not real. Now that the floor had been elongated, Lin Yao considered the place where he was to be the second floor.

Lin Yao’s scalp turned numb when he saw several of the rooms on this floor, such as the laser room with the dense laser beams shooting out and the room filled with lava. Lin Yao had a feeling he wouldn’t meet a good end if he entered them.

Space was indeed one of the two strongest attributes in the world, and the mirror with this attribute was also extremely terrifying.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Yao would be tricked to death when facing this kind of space freak.

However, when Lin Yao discovered that he hadn’t triggered the conditions and the mirror evil spirit couldn’t pull him into the various dangerous rooms, his spiritual body in the Sea of Consciousness smiled.

‘Lava, right. Boom!

‘Laser, right. Boom!

‘Poisonous gas, right… Forget it. I’ll close the door.’

If he was inside the room with the traps, it would naturally be dangerous for Lin Yao, but the situation was different outside. He had countless ways to destroy the rooms. Even if he couldn’t destroy them, Lin Yao had enough time to move along the corridors.

One by one, Lin Yao destroyed the rooms rapidly, deriving pleasure in the process. Meanwhile, the figure of the freak in the mirror near him became increasingly ferocious. It was making noises repeatedly. Mirrors even appeared out of thin air and attached themselves to Lin Yao’s nose, making the figures inside look as if they were stuck on Lin Yao.

(“You saw it, right!”) (“You saw it, right!”) (“You saw it, right!”)…

However, this was useless. Without triggering the conditions, this thing could only scream but not take action.

Boom!

Lin Yao felt extremely great as he blasted the evil spirits in this place in front of the mirror. After a considerate amount of blasting, Lin Yao suddenly discovered cracks on the mirrors surrounding him, as well as the strange and mysterious figures of the monsters in them.

‘This room is related to the mirror… I’m so stupid. Of course, the room is related to the mirror. In other words, I’ll be able to destroy this mirror if I destroy all the rooms in this place?’

Lin Yao thought of killing the mirror, which was indeed possible to realize.

The mirror would not possess the mind of a human. Otherwise, taking a one-sided beating and not fighting back would certainly make it holler furiously, ‘Young man, you have no martial arts ethics!’

Of course, Lin Yao wouldn’t care what the freak thought. He was excited to learn that it was possible to kill the mirror. The country would reward him for eliminating evil spirits, and evil spirits with spatial ability would certainly yield very huge rewards, such as an opportunity to apply for a diamond resource.

This was not what made Lin Yao the happiest. Lin Yao’s tree-planting system required him to contribute to mankind. The establishment of a foundation to fund education and teach children was one of the ways he did so. Of course, eliminating evil spirits—which were a threat to mankind—was also considered a form of contribution.

The more powerful the evil spirits and the more harm they would cause humans, the more energy points Lin Yao would gain by killing them. The evil spirit in front of Lin Yao seemed extremely powerful and had huge growth potential. If it were to grow fully, it might even turn into a catastrophic existence. Therefore, he would certainly be rewarded hugely by killing it in advance.

‘I might be able to win big this time!’

Feeling emotional, Lin Yao felt increasingly invigorated as he blasted it.

However, after a while, he sighed as he watched the thunder and lightning surrounding him.

‘Sigh… In terms of destruction, it is easier to use flames. If I had the flame ability, one fireball would be able to destroy a room. Using electric shocks is too laborious and slow.

‘That’s it. I’ll find a spatial sacred tree after I advance.’

Lin Yao liked flames but was planning to look for a spatial sacred tree. This logic was somewhat strange.

However, this was normal, as he’d suddenly thought of something. This was the modern era, and he didn’t necessarily have to possess the flame ability to emit flames. Some of the technological weapons could also achieve the same effect. In fact, they might be even more powerful and effortless to use.

‘The spatial sacred tree has the ability to open up small spaces. With energy points accelerating its growth, the sacred tree will advance to a Gold Person in a short time. The space will then be at least the size of a playground. When that time comes, I must use most of the space to store bombs. Incendiary bombs… I wonder if I’ll be able to get hold of some nuclear bombs. A small number will do.’

A space bag was a piece of standard equipment that protagonists always carried, and now, Lin Yao also wanted to have one.

The destruction was taking place there. However, as Lin Yao ventured deeper into the mirror space, his expression in the Sea of Consciousness became increasingly serious.

By then, Lin Yao already had a deep understanding of the mirror freak. This was a spatial freak. It could teleport and also transfer humans who made direct eye contact with it or displayed an expression of shock upon looking into the space in the mirror.

At the same time, during the transfer, the surrounding environment would be copied.

Furthermore, there was more than one layer of mirror space. If humans were to destroy most of the replicated rooms, they would enter the deeper parts of the mysterious land.

According to Lin Yao’s theory, the mirror freak’s actual body was located in the innermost place, and he was going to destroy the mirror completely now.

However, the deeper he ventured, the more dangerous the rooms were. This kind of danger was no longer just a trap. Many rooms had freaks locked up in them. Opening the door of the room could be regarded as breaking the door of their cell.

Those freaks had all kinds of abilities. Despite having the holy garment protecting him, Lin Yao gradually felt how difficult it was to take action.

However, he soon discovered something odd.

The mirror freak didn’t release a huge group of freaks to besiege him all at once.

‘Is it restricted by the rules, or perhaps those freaks don’t obey the mirror space?’

Lin Yao’s Agile Mind enabled him to detect some suspicious factors. After contemplating it for a moment, Lin Yao withdrew his flashing thunderlight. He then lifted the restrictions on his brain and unlocked thinking speed acceleration. He also hooked a tungsten alloy pellet around his thumb.

Super Electromagnetic Gun!

As a buzz filled the air, the electromagnetically-propelled tungsten alloy pellet transformed into a beam of orange light and shot toward a room located one kilometer away.

Boom! That room was destroyed by Lin Yao with one blow. A moment later, a strange and mysterious aura was spreading to the surroundings of that room.

After the door was broken, the space bulwark was also gone. Lin Yao was now able to receive the information of that room with electromagnetic waves.

When he received his first piece of information, the first ability that reacted was Good and Evil Distinguishment. A massive amount of hatred and resentment appeared in Lin Yao’s sense of perception. In a moment, Lin Yao’s 3D map came into play, and everything in that room was displayed in his mind.

It was an ordinary room. After he scanned the place once, Lin Yao’s focus shifted to a black umbrella.

‘There is a problem with this object. This is an umbrella freak. What is its method of killing and what are the trigger conditions?’

With the Agile Mind provided by the Bodhi Tree, Lin Yao discovered that he no longer thought of acting recklessly the moment he encountered freaks. At the same time, he realized he was able to probe the abilities of some freaks.

‘It is already known that the birth of freaks requires the negative aura of human beings. The stronger the negative aura, the more formidable the freaks are. The influence is mostly mutual. Since freaks have the evil side of human beings, they’ll also be influenced by some of the ideas and concepts of humans.

‘The umbrella is a tool that we use on rainy days. Its prowess is best unleashed on rainy days. The means the way it kills is likely related to rain or water. Also, it is highly possible that the moment before the umbrella opens and lands on top of my head is the time when it is the strongest.’

Within a short time, Lin Yao deduced some of the abilities of the umbrella freak in his mind. Of course, this might not be accurate. Nevertheless, Lin Yao believed that if he were to evade all of these conjectures, the probability of triggering the freak’s killing instinct was very low.

As Lin Yao thought about the umbrella freak, the latter also exited the room when the door opened.

After getting out of the door, the closed black umbrella immediately opened, surprising Lin Yao.

As the black umbrella opened, rain started pouring from the sky.

Splash, splash, splash.

As the rain poured down, the only part of the ground that remained clean was the area under the black umbrella. However, Lin Yao would be an idiot if he were to approach the black umbrella. While the black umbrella was unleashing its powers, he retreated to analyze the impact of the umbrella’s appearance on the mirror space.

Soon, a certain occurrence elated Lin Yao. As the falling rainwater accumulated on the floor, it was actually corroding the floor, drenching the surrounding walls and wooden doors and making them turn white.

‘Sure enough, the mirror freak cannot command the other freaks. There are also conflicts between them. The freak in the mirror hunted me down earlier because I was too close to it.’
