I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 472: The Unmovable Sun
The sun did not move.

The scorching sun had been staying in the same place for a long time. Two hours ago, the sun had been there. Zhou Chao remembered it clearly.

"Are you sure?" the captain asked seriously.

"Sure, I'm sure. You can ask Xiao Li. He's always by my side. He knows!"

"Xiao Li! Come here!" the captain shouted to the back of the team.

The team member who had been standing next to Zhou Chao ran over hurriedly.

"Zhou Chao was indeed looking at the sun just now. I happened to report the time two hours ago, and he was also looking at the sun at that time." Xiao Li answered seriously.

"Really?" The captain looked at his deputy and asked, "What time is it now?"

"Twelve ten, Captain. We entered this forest at eight o'clock."

"Twelve ten?" The captain looked up at the sun still hanging in the sky: "It's September now, right?"

"That's right, Captain."

The captain nodded: "The sun's position is wrong. Zhou Chao is right."

"Everyone on alert!"

A loud shout made everyone in the investigation team nervous.

"Zhou Chao, give me your holy sword."

"Okay, Captain." Zhou Chao quickly handed over the holy sword.

The captain drew out the holy sword without hesitation and stabbed the woods in front of him.

A beam of destructive light shot out, creating a path of destruction in front of it. The earth was split in half, and the bare trees were burned to ashes.

But this is not the more critical point. After the beam of light dissipated, a strange colorful crack was wrapping inward along the crack created by the beam of light, just like the split grease healing.

"Did you see it?" the captain asked seriously.

"I see! It's light! There is a layer of light covering the normal scene!" Zhou Chao shouted as if waking up from a dream.

Human vision is easily deceived. As long as another layer of light is covered on top of normal light, what the eyes see is not real.

If you can control light, you can control what the human eye sees.

"We have been deceived...it seems something wants to trap us." The captain said with understanding.

He raised the holy sword and swung it again.

Sure enough, the scene I saw this time was exactly the same as before.

"A creature that can control light."

The captain frowned and looked up at the sky: "This immovable scorching sun and this strange high temperature are probably all created by it."

"It freezes the sunlight and allows the light at different times to overlap, making the temperature of the forest higher and higher."

Zhou Chao listened to the captain's words and nodded repeatedly.

For some reason, he felt that what the captain said was right.

"Then how should we escape from this cage of light?" The captain looked at everyone.

"Let's lower the temperature first." Xiao Li took out his own relic, which was a hair dryer.

Xiao Li turned on the hair dryer, and a refreshing cool breeze covered the entire team.

However, white smoke began to rise from Xiao Li's body.

"I can't hold out much longer, Captain."

"It won't take long." The captain looked at Xiao Li and said solemnly.

Zhou Chao looked at Xiao Li, with white smoke coming out of his body, and his heart suddenly ached.

"what happened?"

He quickly took out the water cup and handed it to Xiao Li, but Xiao Li waved his hand.

The captain called all the teammates together to discuss countermeasures.

"All we need to do is create darkness!" Zhou Chao said excitedly, "As long as it's completely dark, light won't have any effect. We can hide in the darkness and leave this forest."

For some reason, Zhou Chao suddenly came up with a suitable answer. The captain nodded: "Not bad."

He looked at the bare trees around him and said, "The trees here have no leaves. This is probably why the enemy is afraid of shadows and darkness, so they won't leave any shadows."

"Captain, I can create a shadow. You just need to hide under the shadow." A team member shouted excitedly.

The captain looked at him for a few seconds and sighed.

"Are you sure?"

"determine."

The team member directly took out a dough-like relic and took a big bite.

"I'm going to wrap you up now!" As he spoke, his body swelled up like dough, twisting and growing bigger and bigger until it became a giant pancake.

The pattern on his clothes was still on the pancake, and his face was stretched into a strange big face. His mouth was speaking, but no one could hear clearly.

The pancake enveloped the entire team, blocking out all light.

"Forward." The captain's voice trembled a little.

Just like that, the entire investigation team moved forward with their teammates transformed into pancakes.

Zhou Chao was right at the neck of the "human-faced pancake". The eyes of his teammate who had turned into a pancake were staring at him. His heart trembled and he wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat.

The cool wind blocked the high temperature outside. The teammates who had turned into pancakes above his head seemed to slowly stop moving, and the pair of eyes that had been staring at Zhou Chao also slowly closed.

"Captain, he..." Zhou Chao said worriedly.

"Don't talk, just keep moving forward." The captain's voice was a little hoarse.

Zhou Chao didn't ask any more questions. He just walked forward with the pancake that no longer moved.

Darkness covered everything, and a faint light shone through the patterned cake surface. The outside world seemed to be slowly turning green, and some green light came in.

Zhou Chao could hear his teammates' breathing and the sound of footsteps on the ground. Being in the darkness, everything became extremely obvious.

But there was another voice that kept hurting Zhou Chao's heart - Xiao Li's wailing.

He seemed to be unable to hold on any longer.

"Captain, it's turning green outside, should we be able to go out now?"

"No, this may be a trap. These lights may also be faked by the enemy. Keep going and don't stop."

Zhou Chao's heart sank. He stopped talking and continued to walk forward with difficulty.

The dough on his head became heavier and heavier, and Zhou Chao felt as if his hands were getting wet.

“Is it sweat?”

Zhou Chao looked through the dim light, but at the first glance, he froze.

That is not sweat, but melted blood...

Blood flowed down Zhou Chao's arm. The blood had a strange sticky feeling, as if it was mixed with flour, and was sticky.

Zhou Chao gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and dared not look again.

However, the blood became thinner and thinner, dripping all over his body, and the warm blood flowed down his head to the ground.

Now, even if he didn't look, the blood would appear in front of him.

tick tock...tick tock...

Zhou Chao closed his eyes, and blood mixed with his tears flowed to the ground.

Xiao Li's wailing could no longer be heard, but the cool breeze was still blowing.

Zhou Chao heard his own faint sobs.

I couldn't tell whether the warmth on his face was blood or tears.

"team leader……"

"Keep going, don't stop!"
