Chapter 602: A Strange WorldTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Shu and Chen Zuan sat on the surface of the mirror and pondered about their strategy. It was not as if this mirror world had no friction at all. If that was the case, Lu Shu would not have been able to stabilize his body once he entered.
He had wanted to use his water-type abilities to form a layer of ice that they could slide on. But the problem was that there was only so much water vapor in the air. It would take a long time to form ice that could support them.
Chen Zuan thought about it and said, “How nice it would be if we had ice skates. We can just skate on the mirror, ha ha.”
Lu Shu glanced at him. “Ice skates also depend on the friction with the ice in order to move. Who told you that ice skates don’t need the help of friction?”
If one wanted to go forwards with ice skates, they had to create a reaction force with the ice using their back leg. But that was not possible on the mirror surface.
“But we don’t have to worry for now,” Chen Zuan said with a laugh. “At first, I was afraid that we had come in too late and wouldn’t get anything. Now, seeing the situation, the group of Daoyuan Class students would probably be thrown into confusion here. Walking is difficult, let alone finding resources. I can even imagine how they will enter this place. They’re not much better off than us.”
Lu Shu nodded. This was the truth. They would face the same circumstances as Lu Shu and Chen Zuan when they entered this place. It was hard to make use of the Practitioners’ advantage on this mirror surface.
But he was not worried that they would not be able to escape. After all, such a strange place would not affect Chen Baili much. He would eventually find the relic.
As Chen Zuan reached his wits’ end, Lu Shu suddenly took out two long spears and a mat from thin air. This mat was rather large. This was the waterproof mat that came with the individual outdoor tent set that Lu Shu had bought.
Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. “Brother Shu, you actually have invisible storage equipment!” Earlier, when Lu Shu had hurled long spears at the man-eating lizards, everyone suspected that Lu Shu had invisible storage equipment, but they could not confirm this suspicion. There were some weapons that could be kept on the body, but a waterproof mat was not a weapon. It was definitely taken out from the invisible storage equipment.
Chen Zuan was even more shocked, as he knew that only a few Heavenly Kings in the country possessed such storage. It was said that even the Heavenly Network did not have any stock.
“Stop your nonsense. Hurry up and come here,” Lu Shu said as he carefully climbed onto the waterproof mat and sat down.
Chen Zuan understood what Lu Shu wanted to do. Using the spears was definitely much better than a punch to the mirror. Furthermore, the waterproof mat was like a vehicle that could carry them. Lu Shu could use the long spears as oars to propel them forward.
Chen Zuan went wild with excitement. He was right to follow Lu Shu into the remains!
Chen Zuan climbed onto the mat. “I’m ready!”
“Let’s go!” Lu Shu said energetically.
Lu Shu channeled his celestial powers into the long spears. He used all the strength in his arms to poke two holes in the mirror. He exerted his strength and the waterproof mat slid forwards as fast as an arrow.
Chen Zuan, who was sitting behind, felt as if he was sitting at the back of a motorcycle. It was just too fast! Chen Zuan had nothing to grab onto and fell off…
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”
“Brother Shu,” Chen Zuan lay down on the mirror and said sadly. “I will never ridicule you ever again. Please help me…”
Lu Shu laughed buoyantly and slid over to help him. “Sorry, it was an accident. I won’t do it again.”
Chen Zuan climbed onto the waterproof mat in relief. He hugged Lu Shu tightly from behind…
“Let go…” Lu Shu’s expression darkened. What if other people saw them?
“I’m not letting go!” Chen Zuan was afraid that Lu Shu would suddenly speed up. He was sharp and would not make the same mistake twice.
Lu Shu retrieved a sewing set and a tattered t-shirt from the Seal of Lands. He sewed a handle for Chen Zuan on the waterproof mat. Chen Zuan beamed with joy and let go of Lu Shu.
Lu Shu used the two long spears as oars and moved as swift as the wind.
The two of them looked at the world around them. The mirror reflected the azure sky. The two of them were tiny compared to the rest of this vast world. They were like a solitary boat on a calm sea.
They had rarely experienced such loneliness and vastness in their lives.
Chen Zuan suddenly sighed. “Brother Shu, you said that there was nothing here. It doesn’t feel like there are training resources here.”
“It’s not as simple as you think. All the remains are not so simple.” Lu Shu shook his head. “Perhaps we will only know when night falls.”
Suddenly, they saw a figure far away, silently laying down on the surface. Lu Shu was very certain that the person was still alive. After all, as the person lay down, was chewing on chocolate…
The person sensed that someone was approaching. He turned his head and saw Lu Shu and Chen Zuan. When he saw them swiftly moving towards him, he was very surprised. He shouted, “Let me have a ride! I can’t move here!”
Lu Shu controlled the waterproof mat and stopped five meters away from the person. The person was Jiang Feng, who had traveled with them earlier!
Lu Shu curiously asked, “Why are you here?”
“I have been here ever since I arrived,” Jiang Feng said with annoyance. “I can’t move. I can only lay here and eat…”
Lu Shu remembered that Jiang Feng had arrived the day before yesterday. He asked, “Are there any changes to the remains at night?”
Jiang Feng was dumbfounded. He said, “There is no night here…”
“As expected.” Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. Earlier, he had felt that the rules in the remains were not as simple as he had expected. The world in the remains was completely different.
If it was like Li Xianyi had said, every remains had their own world within them. How could these worlds be the same?
But Lu Shu was slightly curious. The remains that he had encountered earlier all had a blood moon. So did those remains all lead to the same place? Lu Shu looked up at the sky. Not only was there no blood moon, there was no sun either. He did not know where the light and the azure sky came from. But the azure was slightly different from that on Earth.
There was no sun and no moon. There was no day and night.
Jiang Feng recalled how their discussion on how to survive after entering the remains. They even laughed at Lu Shu for not preparing in advance. But after entering the remains, they realized that the remains were completely different from what they had expected. There was no way they could prepare in advance.
“Could you…” Before Jiang Feng could finish his sentence, Lu Shu sped away on his waterproof mat…
“From Jiang Feng’s distress, +666!”
