"But she kept reminding herself in her heart that she could not retreat, could not back down, and certainly could not panic and flee at this moment.
It took almost all her strength to move her heavy feet.
She entered Room 5 on the third floor!
The room was very empty, but as soon as she stepped inside, Xia Xiaoyu relied on the light streaming in through the broken window to see a large piece of glass placed in the corner opposite her.
It was the kind of glass found in barbershops that can fully reflect a person's entire figure, and in front of it, Xia Xiaoyu also saw a stool.
Although it was very blurry, just seeing this scene made Xia Xiaoyu feel frightened, even though no ghost had appeared yet. The atmosphere alone at midnight was enough to scare her significantly.
At that moment, Xia Xiaoyu suddenly felt a chill creeping up her back, enveloping her body and filling her with dread. She stood frozen in the empty room for a long time before regaining some awareness.
She felt as if her entire body was frozen like ice, completely immobilized. In the night, in this desolate Ancient Tower, and at such a midnight hour, she found herself alone here to complete tonight's terrifying task.
If it were in the past, Xia Xiaoyu would undoubtedly have been very scared and would never have done such a thing. But now, after experiencing so much, her burdens had grown heavier. So even though she felt terrified facing this situation, she knew that this was something she had to confront.
This was the only opportunity she had to fight for her survival. Therefore, despite the fear overwhelming her heart, Xia Xiaoyu understood that she absolutely could not back down tonight...
As long as she could buy some time, Zifeng would definitely come..."
Xia Xiaoyu thought to herself, glancing around at the emptiness surrounding her. In the midnight hour, everything felt so desolate and tranquil. Her heart raced with increasing anxiety, yet she did not flee in panic.
After gathering her courage, Xia Xiaoyu slowly approached the enormous mirror. Inside this house, she sensed an absence of anything superfluous, but the atmosphere felt even more oppressive. Deeply immersed in her thoughts, Xia Xiaoyu felt as if she were being watched.
The stillness of midnight was devoid of any sound, save for the night breeze that blew through the dilapidated doors and windows, chilling her to the bone.
The shabby room was ethereal yet eerie. Xia Xiaoyu moved cautiously; she wasn't particularly afraid of facing the mirror because at this hour, anyone looking into a mirror would inevitably feel a sense of foreboding.
She moved slowly, as if engaged in an internal struggle, fearing that when her gaze met the mirror, something might suddenly leap out at her.
Many thoughts flashed through her mind, but Xia Xiaoyu had no other options. Her feet could only move closer to the mirror.
The mirror was large; she had no idea where Zifeng had acquired it. However, its surface was bright. Even though it was midnight, when Xia Xiaoyu stood before the mirror, she immediately saw her own reflection.
Her face appeared pale, and a hint of fear radiated from her entire being. She could see in the mirror that her heart was filled with dread and terror.
Yet she kept reminding herself not to back down.
There was no other path for her now. To end this ordeal, she had to proceed; this was her only hope and the sole way to survive.
She sat on the stool placed in front of the mirror, allowing herself a clear view of her reflected form. She quietly gazed at herself in the mirror and suddenly felt an unsettling sensation as if the reflection of herself seemed somewhat different.
It appeared thinner and somewhat timid, exuding an air of vulnerability.
She realized that she was still so afraid, and yet so helpless. Xia Xiaoyu thought to herself as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. She couldn't help but feel a bit self-deprecating when she saw the image of herself.
Without any lights, everything was quite blurry at this hour, but the mirror shone like a luminous object, allowing Xia Xiaoyu to see everything clearly, including her own reflection.
According to Xia Xiaoyu's guess, it should be close to midnight now.
