Chapter 792: Chapter 792 Two Modes

"Also pinch around the ankle."

"My calves are a bit uncomfortable too... Your technique is really strong."

"Mhm, a little higher."

"Move a bit more... Ah, that’s right, just like that."

Wen Wen, who was enjoying Tao Qingqing’s Blood Clan-style massage, was in high spirits, his eyes comfortably squinting.

Tao Qingqing rolled her eyes. It was just a normal massage, but Wen Wen’s exclamations made it sound like they were doing something indecent.

Just when Wen Wen was about to do something truly indecent, he received a message from Jidro.

"Disturbing me at this time takes guts, not afraid of being stuffed by a heaven-scaling monkey, huh..."

"Wait, this is good news."

Wen Wen withdrew his legs and said to Tao Qingqing, "Go back to your brain-dead palace drama, I have some matters to deal with."

Tao Qingqing made a face at Wen Wen and huffily returned to her room, squeezing out a pile of hand sanitizer as if trying to wash a layer off her hands.

As she was washing her hands, she suddenly paused; the hotel had excellent soundproofing, so how did Wen Wen know she was watching a palace drama?

"Could he have been spying all along?"

At that thought, Tao Qingqing couldn’t help feeling a chill run down her spine.

After sending Tao Qingqing away, Wen Wen walked to a full-length mirror that flickered. His left eye turned silver-white, and then the mirror surface seemed to become like flowing silver water.

Wen Wen stepped into the mirror as if entering water, then his entire body disappeared into the mirror, and the surface returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

The air was slightly damp; it was the familiar women’s bathhouse that Wen Wen knew.

However, Wen Wen had no desire for the bathhouse now. Just thinking about the scene he had seen before made him shudder.

Jidro pushed open the door of the bathhouse and ran up to Wen Wen, bowing at a 180-degree angle, almost bumping his head on the floor.

"Great master, you’ve finally arrived!"

"Look, the task you assigned to me, I’ve completed it!"

Jidro led Wen Wen out of the bathhouse, stretched out a finger in a direction, and all the various floating spaces automatically parted in that straight line, allowing Wen Wen to directly see the huge silver Magic Cube. That was the newly renovated Mirror Labyrinth.

The Mirror Labyrinth at this moment was not broken and shabby like the Mirror Nightmare’s; it had an overall high-end and luxurious feel, to Wen Wen’s satisfaction. He nodded, especially approving of the black cross pattern on the Magic Cube’s outer wall, which greatly suited his taste.

Then, under Jidro’s guidance, Wen Wen toured the entire Mirror Labyrinth like a school authority inspecting dormitory cleanliness.

Wen Wen’s demands for Jidro weren’t just to restore the Mirror Labyrinth; there were two additional requests.

Wen Wen himself thought those demands were a bit unreasonable, but Jidro had done very well.

This made Wen Wen look at Jidro in a new light; the fellow was indeed a capable Mirror Demon.

Many people think that bootlickers get promotion opportunities because they serve their superiors well.

But in reality, there is a subset of bootlickers who are not only good at fawning but also possess formidable abilities, and Jidro was one of the strong ones.

At that time, Wen Wen had two main requests, the first being the ability to connect the Mirror Labyrinth with the Sanctuary.

This was something Jidro couldn’t accomplish on his own, as the core operations needed to be performed by Wen Wen,

but Jidro had already completely interconnected the Mirror Labyrinth into a single entity and prepared everything needed, so Wen Wen only had to carry out the final decisive task.

The second request was for Jidro to develop a simple method of entering the Mirror Labyrinth.

Even ordinary people scattered around the real world could access the Mirror Labyrinth using this method.

The distance in the real world was meaningless to the Mirror World, and each mirror served as a natural portal into this reality, but achieving all this was far from simple.

Luckily, Jidro’s abilities were strong enough, and after his relentless and sleepless research, he finally developed a simple ritual.

Anyone in the real world, as long as they had a mirror big enough to walk through by their side, could perform this simple ritual and send an entry request to Jidro, which, once approved, granted them access to the Mirror Labyrinth.

Of course, just how challenging this was, was something Jidro claimed himself, and Wen Wen had his doubts about its veracity.

There were two ways to enter the labyrinth, one was to enter physically, and the other was to create a mirror image phantom that the mind could control and move around within the Mirror Labyrinth.

The mirror image phantoms had real physical bodies in this world and the exact same abilities as their originals, only with left and right reversed.

However, controlling the mirror image phantoms came with a subtle feeling of disconnection that prevented full immersion, but the death of a phantom had no effect on the person.

If one entered physically, this place would become a real world, where the mirror image phantoms also had the full capability to kill, and death would be real.

Wen Wen’s reason for giving Jidro these two requests was to turn the Mirror Labyrinth into a training ground for Wen Wen, honing the Containment Officers’ abilities.

Beyond the core area of the Mirror Labyrinth, a portion of the outer area was designated for a slaughter mode.

Wen Wen arranged for the Containment Officers and the monsters of the Sanctuary to enter this space using their mirror image phantoms, engaging in ruleless combat to strengthen their fighting capabilities.

Many Containment Officers had great abilities but weren’t adept in combat since they seldom had the chance to fight, so Wen Wen created this opportunity for them.

Once this area opened, Containment Officers had to come here to "die" periodically, and if they took leave, they would have to do so twice in the subsequent period.

This rule was primarily intended to rein in certain slackers, although most Containment Officers would likely enjoy such a place.

For the monsters, the Mirror Labyrinth was an even more perfect playground.

The chance to fight here was much better than remaining cooped up in cells all the time, especially since Wen Wen seldom let them out these days.

To exercise the abilities of the Containment Officers, the creation of mirror image phantoms was enough, but Wen Wen still opened the ability for physical entry because Wen Wen also wanted to use this place to screen for potentially useful talent!

Thus, the Mirror Labyrinth also had a second mode, the story mode.

Some monsters would permanently reside in the story mode, playing various roles.

Candidates for Containment Officer would enter the Mirror Labyrinth with their true bodies, experiencing extreme fears induced by various monsters, and the choices they made in fear would determine whether they could become members of the Sanctuary!

Some might deliberately sabotage their companions, others might become mentally unstable and harm ordinary people—in conclusion, just through the recruitment bubble, it’s impossible to truly understand a person.

Only those who have been tested by the story mode could be considered good employees of the Sanctuary, Wen Wen’s reliable tools.
