Volume 1: Dance of the Black Dragon Chapter 36 Reflections in the Water
Murphy was stunned on the spot. For a few seconds, he even doubted whether he was dreaming, but he soon realized that this was not a dream, this was reality. The thing he was most worried about had happened. Murphys was real and had begun to appear in reality.
"Morpheus?" he asked tentatively.
"Who else could it be but me, a stupid mortal." The sarcastic tone made Murphy feel uncomfortable.
Murphy reacted quickly and immediately remembered some things. The violent emotions and desire to kill in his heart were exactly the same as when he was playing the story campaign in the game.
"So you were the one nagging me all along, and it was you who made me do those things? It was all your fault!"
"Hehe, don't say that. I just gave you a little push. That's what you wanted to do. How does it feel to hold other people's lives in your hands? Isn't it great and addictive?
By the way, you should have stabbed it.”
Murphy snorted coldly, "I'm not crazy."
A mocking expression appeared on Hei Long's face. "Really? Then what are you doing now?"
Murphy was speechless as he talked to the illusion that appeared in the water. This was indeed something only a madman would do.
He stared at the black dragon in the mirror, its red eyes emitting a scorching red light, "So what are you?"
The black dragon opened his mouth, "What do you think?"
Murphy was about to speak when there was a sudden bang and the toilet door behind him was pushed open. A drunk man carrying a bottle of wine rushed in. He seemed to be an employee of the company on this floor. He didn't seem to notice Murphy and walked straight to the urinal next to him to open the gate and drain the water.
When Murphy turned around again, the black dragon in the reflection had disappeared.
He had no intention of staying to watch, so he turned and walked out.
He felt his mind was in a mess and he urgently needed to go back to the dormitory to calm down.
The lights in the corridor were blinding, and he could see the pitch-black night outside. Reflections flickered on the glass, as if something was following him.
"Are you planning to leave like this?" Black Dragon's voice sounded again.
Murphy glanced at the black dragon out of the corner of his eye and saw the image of the black dragon appear in the reflection of the glass, moving with his movement, as if the damn black dragon was following him outside the window. However, Murphy knew that it was just an illusion. The black dragon did not exist, at least not in substance.
He will have an answer.
"Hey, I'm talking to you."
Murphy turned a deaf ear to it. He hadn't figured out how to deal with this guy yet. Murphy wasn't even sure whether the voice was real or just an illusion. As a materialist, he didn't want to talk to his illusion, but on the other hand, he felt that this was a very magical thing - and also a very dangerous thing.
"How does it feel to be entangled?"
I don’t want to listen to the turtle’s chanting.
"Hehe, don't think you can pretend you can't see me. I'm right here, and I know you can hear me."
"La la la la la."
The voice lingered in his ears, making Mo Fei upset.
"Shut up!" He finally couldn't help but yell, and he lowered his voice deliberately because he didn't want others to see him talking to himself.
The voice disappeared, and the image in the glass also disappeared. However, just when he breathed a sigh of relief , a huge black dragon's face suddenly popped out of a mirror at the corner - "Bang!"
Murphy was startled, but Black Dragon had a smug expression on his face, "Tsk tsk tsk, you're getting anxious so soon? How boring."
"What on earth do you want to do?" Murphy said angrily.
"I want to help you." Black Dragon said as he picked at his nails. His absent-minded expression made him look like he deserved a beating.
Help me, Mo Fei thought. If I hadn't calmed down at the last moment, I would have been arrested by now, and the best outcome would probably be life imprisonment. So that's it -
Murphy suddenly understood that this was what the Black Dragon wanted to achieve, to put him in prison. Murphy had also heard about the environment in prison. When the time came, he would have no choice but to rely on it under the threat of violence. In this process, Murphys would definitely gradually invade his consciousness, control his body, and eventually completely replace him.
The thought of this possibility made him shudder and at the same time he felt a surge of anger.
"Get out of here! You damn reptile, I know what you want to do. You want to control me, right? Occupy my body and steal everything from me. Don't even think about it..."
The black dragon suddenly pounced towards him, and a huge dragon claw stretched out from the glass and grabbed Murphy's neck. The black dragon claw looked extremely real. Murphy could even see the reflection of the fluorescent light on the dragon scales. The dragon claw slowly retracted, and the huge force made him completely unable to resist, strangling him to the point of choking.
The pair of red eyes looked at him through the reflection in the glass, full of hatred.
" I should be the one saying this to you, human. You are a shameless thief, a despicable bastard. You control my body, play with my fate, and steal my life. Now do you also feel what it feels like to be controlled by others? Very good, you will get used to this feeling..."
Murphy felt that he was gradually suffocating, and his vision gradually darkened, until a voice suddenly sounded from behind him, - "Hey Murphy."
Murphy suddenly woke up from the nightmare-like hallucination and found himself standing in the middle of the corridor. There was no dragon claw and no one was pinching his neck. Outside the window he could see the night view of the city. The neon lights were colorful and beautiful. Apart from that, there was only his own reflection.
Murphy was still in shock for a moment. This thing was too weird. It could even interfere with reality. He touched his neck, and the feeling of suffocation seemed to still remain.
He turned back with some relief and found Che Xiaoyan, who had chased after him, was also the anchor of the monster area, but she was anchoring the succubus...
Che Xiaoyan followed Mo Fei's gaze and glanced at the window next to her with some confusion, but didn't see anything unusual.
"I just heard someone say that you had a conflict with the young president. Is that true?"
Murphy shook his head. "That's not true. Don't listen to other people's nonsense."
Che Xiaoyan was relentless, holding onto Mo Fei's arm and shaking it, "Brother Long, stop trying to coax me. We signed the contract together, and now it's about to expire. Everyone is watching the limelight. You're the top guy in our Monster District, so the company will definitely start with you when it comes to discussing your salary. Can you tell me a little bit? How is the negotiation going?"
Under normal circumstances, Murphy might have revealed something, but now he just wanted to go home quickly.
Murphy shook his head. "It's hard to say now, but we should have a result tomorrow."
After saying that, he sighed, turned around and walked away with a heavy heart.
