Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

"Wake up, everyone, wake up."

"Don't be fooled, don't be fooled, wake up!"

… … … …

Bang… …

Shouts, flying kicks, slaps, impacts, nothing worked.

In desperation, Yu Wentao and the others even stabbed a knife into one man's thigh, hoping to stimulate him with pain and restore his sanity.

But even that didn't work.

The man whose thigh was pierced merely glanced down at him, then immediately turned his head to look at the sky, unhesitatingly drawing his dagger and stabbing it fiercely into his own heart.

Thwack… … … …

"They're crazy, they're all crazy. Ignore the people here, go stop others from coming over. There must be something on the bamboo building that we can't see, only those who have worshipped the Mirror Immortal can see it!"

Just now, there were only two or three thousand people gathered around the bamboo building.

Unbeknownst to when, people had also begun to emerge from other houses in the camp, one after another. They were all approaching the bamboo building as if possessed, their eyes fixed on the sky above the bamboo building, revealing the same smiles as those before.

Thwack… … Thwack… … Thwack… … … …

Seeing the speed at which people were committing suicide increasing, Yu Wentao completely gave up on this group and directly led the people around him to rush towards the outer perimeter of the crowd.

"Don't come over, don't come over, go, go, all of you go!"

He shouted himself hoarse, but it didn't have the slightest effect.

The vast majority of people in the camp were still gathering towards the bamboo building.

Silver-white streams of light emerged from the pupils of those people, as if they couldn't hear any external sounds, one after another they committed suicide, exactly the same as Yu Wenhuan and the others under the bamboo building just now.

"What's wrong, Tao'er, what's wrong!"

"Tao, what's the situation?"

"Lao Hong, what's going on?"

… … … …

Of course, there were also a few sober people who heard Yu Wentao's voice and came out of their houses.

These people looked somewhat dazed when they came out, but when they noticed the people by the bamboo building committing suicide one by one, their expressions instantly froze.

"All of you go, all of you go, don't come over."

Yu Wentao didn't explain to everyone. Noticing that these people who could still remain sober were all those who hadn't worshipped the Mirror Immortal, he immediately understood that he couldn't possibly stop everything that was happening by the bamboo building.

"Mother, don't come over, quickly run with Uncle Hong and the others, run out of the camp, don't stay here. Leader, and the others who have worshipped the Mirror Immortal have all gone mad."

Seeing his mother, Xu Lan, also walking towards the bamboo building, Yu Wentao immediately stopped her and quickly rushed over to meet her.

"Where is your father?"

Hearing his mother's question, Yu Wentao's expression shook, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally looking towards the top floor of the bamboo building.

Xu Lan wasn't an ordinary person, she also had a Burrowing Earth Realm cultivation base.

Seeing her son's expression, she had already guessed what had happened, then followed her son's gaze to look at the top floor of the bamboo building, and her body suddenly shook.

Yu Wenhuan was quietly hanging on the railing of the top floor.

Even from a distance, it was possible to clearly see that there was a terrifying wound on Yu Wenhuan's neck, and blood was flowing down the railing.

Combining his motionless appearance and the increasing number of people committing suicide and falling down below the bamboo building, it wasn't difficult to guess what had happened to her husband.

Surveying the scene around the bamboo building, Xu Lan suppressed the grief on her face and quickly turned her head to speak solemnly to her son:

"Tao'er, there are many people from our Ning Zhou who haven't worshipped the Mirror Immortal, they should still be able to be saved, you quickly go save them."

Mother also knows about the Mirror Immortal?

Yu Wentao's expression froze, but hearing Xu Lan's words, he immediately realized something in his heart and quickly shook his head and said:

"No, Mother, you also come with me… …"

"Don't say anymore, when has your mother ever changed her mind? The more time you waste here, the fewer people can be saved, hurry up!"

Looking up at the determination on his mother's face, Yu Wentao's heart shook.

"It's too cold, can't let your father just lie there like that… …"

Xu Lan murmured softly, resolutely walking towards the bamboo building.

Seeing his mother's back, Yu Wentao clenched his fists tightly, finally raising his head to stare at his father Yu Wenhuan's corpse, then directly turned around and rushed towards the remaining houses in the camp, starting to notify the others to escape.

"Father and I, didn't suspect wrong, the Mirror Immortal is a strange monster. The problem now is, has Leader He Yuanhun been controlled by that Mirror Immortal, or has he himself already been replaced by the Mirror Immortal."

If Yu Wentao had only suspected that the Mirror Immortal was a strange monster before, then after personally witnessing his father Yu Wenhuan's suicide, and the scene that happened at the bamboo building, he could be sure of it.

The previous resurrection from the dead was probably just a guise given by that Mirror Immortal, for the sake of this moment.

Yu Wentao led Hong Guang and the others, gathering all the people in the camp who still had their sanity, while organizing them to escape, he also began to think in his mind.

He Yuanhun is undoubtedly a real person. The biggest reason why his father Yu Wenhuan decided to bring the Yuan Zhou people to join the Mirror Immortal camp was because of his heartfelt admiration and respect for He Yuanhun, his sworn brother.

Including Yu Wentao himself, for a long time, he had also regarded He Yuanhun as an idol.

"No, it doesn't matter now whether he's been controlled, or whether he himself is the Mirror Immortal. What's important is, what is his purpose in doing this!"

Confirming that He Yuanhun was a strange monster, then many things could be understood!

"Great Xia must have something that can see through and restrain him, He Yuanhun is afraid, so he created that cold beast tide, equivalent to putting a layer of insurance on himself, it's just a pity that in the end, he was still defeated by Great Xia!"

Not only was he defeated, he should have been defeated utterly.

He Meng, He Gang, along with 271 Burrowing Earth Realm cultivators, were all annihilated, and even He Yuanhun himself was severely injured, almost dying.

Coming back like a startled bird and creating the scene before his eyes, then his purpose was very clear.

"Is this because he's afraid that the people of Great Xia will attack, so he brought it forward?"

Yu Wentao led a group of people to escape to the south side of the camp, roughly estimating that there were only three thousand people. While his expression was painful, he realized that the scene happening before his eyes should have been planned by He Yuanhun for a long time.

The total population of the Mirror Immortal camp was more than 12,000, and more than 9,000 people had worshipped the Mirror Immortal.

Judging from He Yuanhun's gradual bewitchment of everyone to worship the Mirror Immortal, his goal should be everyone in the camp, or rather, the more people the better, but because of the Great Xia incident, he had to bring it forward.

Ding… … … …

A crisp sound of a mirror being struck came from behind. The crowd who were escaping towards the outside of the passage, including Yu Wentao, couldn't help but turn their heads to look back.

With this one look, everyone's eyes became dull.

The basin where the Mirror Immortal camp was located was only about five li in circumference, not very large, with a difference of about ten meters from the ground. The passage to the south was sloping upwards, so when they turned their heads, they could just see the bamboo building.

Above the bamboo building, at some unknown time, there had appeared two oval mirrors with outlines resembling eyes, with an ancient shape.

The mirror on the left was emitting a violent beam of light, shining on the bamboo building below. Looking at the size of the light pillar, it could only shine on one person at most.

The mirror on the right was also emitting light, but it was emitting a kind of gray-black, low-pitched dark light.

The reason why everyone's expressions were dull was because of the mirror on the right.

On the mirror surface of the mirror on the right, a picture was reflected.

Although it was very far away, they could still see it very clearly.

That picture was also a basin, bamboo buildings, wooden houses, roads, all the layouts and constructions were exactly the same as the Mirror Immortal camp where they usually lived.

The difference was that in the world in the mirror, the birds sang and the flowers were fragrant, green and lush, the sun shone brightly, there was no cold, no ice and snow, the ground was piled with food, and even, there were people walking around inside, with constant laughter.

"Isn't that Old Chen's family?"

"I saw my father."

"That's my man, my man is also inside."

… … … …

"Second Leader, I saw Second Leader!"

One voice after another rang out, Hong Guang even saw that Yu Wenhuan was also inside, and immediately told Yu Wentao with a face full of surprise.

But as soon as he turned his head, he met Yu Wentao's extremely cold expression.

"That's all fake, just now you all saw with your own eyes, those people are all dead, that's the trick of the strange monster, don't be foolish!"

Although Hong Guang instantly woke up a lot, other people were different.

Especially some ordinary people with weak psychological defenses, they had already suffered a lot of psychological impact from seeing so many people commit suicide just now. At this moment, seeing the world in that mirror, they seemed to remember something, and their expressions struggled.

"Don't be foolish, that's all fake. If there really is such a world, why do you have to die to go there? That's all the strange monster made up to confuse us."

Seeing that many people's faces showed a desire to move, Yu Wentao immediately shouted loudly.

"Tao'er, don't you believe in Uncle anymore?"

He Yuanhun's sincere voice suddenly came from the sky.

Many people who had been awakened by Yu Wentao couldn't help but look up at the beautiful world in the mirror above, and a glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes.

"The Mirror Immortal is me, I am the Mirror Immortal. This world of bliss in the mirror is created by me. There are no cold beasts, no strange monsters, no frost and cold. It is a world completely opposite to the Icy Abyss. As long as you die once, you can live in it, gain the ability to be immortal and indestructible. Even if you regret it, you can still freely travel back and forth to the Icy Abyss in the future.

Such a world, Tao'er, don't you want to come?"

He Yuanhun's gentle voice was sincere to the extreme. As he eloquently spoke, many people below began to have a glazed look in their eyes, even unconsciously moving their hands towards their weapons.

Not only ordinary people, but even some Lumbering Realm and Earth Burrowing Realm cultivators were affected.

Even Yu Wentao couldn't help but feel a stir of wavering.

He Yuanhun's extremely seductive voice and the perfect world he described were simply too attractive to the people of the Ice Abyss.

The Ice Abyss was not a normal world at all.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as an icy hell.

No frost, no extreme cold, no cold beasts, no strange creatures.

Who wouldn't want to go to such a world?

Of course, more importantly, was He Yuanhun's subsequent statement.

Even if they regretted it, they could still freely travel back and forth to the Ice Abyss in the future.

He Meng, He Gang, and many others had died once and been resurrected. Except for their tempers becoming more irritable, they were almost no different from before.

Didn't this further prove that He Yuanhun's words were true?

"He's lying to me. People can't be resurrected after death. It's all fake, it's an illusion."

Yu Wentao's breathing gradually became heavy as he repeated this sentence in his mind, wanting to open his mouth to refute, but he didn't know how to refute, so he could only remain silent with a struggling expression.

"Lao Guang, what are you waiting for? Come quickly, I'm waiting for you!"

"Son, come in! Dad is waiting for you here."

"This world is much more comfortable than the Ice Abyss, come quickly, Father."

"Rong'er, what are you waiting for? Come in quickly."

… … … … … …

He Yuanhun's words had already caused everyone to waver.

At this moment, the people in the mirror world actually took the initiative to speak.

They reached out to the people on Yu Wentao's side, calling out to their respective relatives and friends with sincere smiles on their faces.

This was like a potent drug for those who were wavering.

Puchi… … … …

In the crowd, an older person finally couldn't help but draw a dagger and stab it into their own heart.

"I want to go there too, I want to go there, I don't want to live in the Ice Abyss."

"Even if it's fake, I want to go there. I want to be with my family."

"I want to go too, I believe in the leader, I want to go to that world."

… … … …

With the first one, there was soon a second, and then it was like a chain reaction. The three thousand people who were about to escape from the garrison passage actually began to commit suicide, just like the people at the bamboo building just now.

"Tao'er, believe your mother, come in! Once you come in, you'll know that the leader didn't lie to us. Your father and I are waiting for you!"

The voice of his mother, Xu Lan, from the mirror world made Yu Wentao's body tremble violently. His eyes became completely glazed, and he slowly raised the broadsword in his hand to his neck.

"Being born in the Ice Abyss is already a life-and-death situation. If I die and can go to such a world and be with my parents, even if it's an illusion, it's worth it!"

The thought popped into Yu Wentao's mind, and he exerted force with both hands.

Boom… … … …

However, at this moment, a violent heatwave suddenly rushed towards him, pulling Yu Wentao back from his dazed state.

"Ah… … … … … …"

A shrill scream suddenly rang out from the mirror above the bamboo building.

"How could it be so fast? How could you be so fast? Ah!!!"

He Yuanhun's previously sincere voice had now become flustered, filled with panic and fear.

The two mirrors above the bamboo building had already burst into flames.

Swish swish swish… … … …

Dozens of iron arrows flew out from behind, all accurately hitting the two mirrors above the bamboo building.

Puchi… …

Strangely, after the iron arrows hit the mirrors, they didn't make the normal sound of glass breaking. Instead, it was as if they had hit flesh, and they were directly embedded in them.

The next second, the tips of those iron arrows burst into flames, adding fuel to the already burning fire.

Boom… … … …

The fire became even more intense, and at the same time, a thick black smoke slowly emerged from the mirror.

Accompanying it was He Yuanhun's even more painful roar.

"How could it be so fast? How could you be so fast? Uh… … Ah… …"

He had only collected more than nine thousand soul spirits, and the Mirror World hadn't taken shape yet, only a little bit left. Xia Hong had actually attacked so early.

The location of the Mirror Immortal's garrison wasn't difficult to find, but Xia Hong hadn't been here before. The first time, it would take some time no matter what.

How could he, how could he find this place so quickly.

"Foolish, I deliberately let you go, how could I not leave a mark on you? If I let you escape so easily, wouldn't my Cold Resistance grade breakthrough be in vain!"

A slightly teasing voice rang out from outside the passage.

Yu Wentao quickly turned his head and realized that there were already sixty or seventy people wearing black cloaks standing outside the passage, holding strong bows and frantically shooting arrows at the mirrors above the bamboo building.

Who else could the leader be but Xia Hong.
