I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 554: Empty Cage

After hearing Xi's words, the exploding flames suddenly paused.

The manager was silent. He seemed to have been stabbed and hid in the surging flames, as if trying to avoid Xi's questions.

But Xi has already made sure of this.

He walked forward without hesitation and thrust his arm into the flames.

"Empty, it is indeed empty..." Xi confirmed again that the manager did add his own personal emotions during the healing process.

Headless bodies were generated in the matrix forest. These bodies were the embodiment of empty emotions, which is why they constantly wanted to "fill" themselves, constantly merge, and constantly accept various creatures to form that kind of weird fused life form.

At this moment, this power of emptiness is spreading continuously and will soon spread throughout the entire Senluo Island.

"In the administrator's healing space, what happened on Senluo Island is being replayed? Is he controlling this? Why is he doing this?"

Standing in this swaying light, Xi was also confused. The feeling of emptiness became stronger and stronger, even surrounding him in the center, wanting to "accept" him and fill the never-satisfied void.

Just as Xi was gradually sinking into emptiness, an arm patted his shoulder, instantly waking Xi up.

"senior……"

"Where is the manager?" Mo Ling asked in a low voice.

"Here, deeper into the void..." Xi stretched out his hand in one direction, and his hand was like breaking a layer of glass. The surrounding flames shattered, and the broken light fell from the sky, removing all cover.

When everything was gone, the surrounding scene changed again:

Two doctors, one old and one young, were standing on the edge of a cliff, seemingly talking about something.

"Elder Radi, can't I use healing?" the young doctor asked very frustratedly.

"Of course you can, but it will be a little more difficult for you to use healing than other healers because your healing space is disordered." The healer known as Elder Radi said gently.

"What does disorder mean? Elder Radi, am I sick?" asked the young doctor dejectedly.

"No, this is not a disease..." Elder Radi placed his hand on the young healer's shoulder. "This is some kind of talent. The things in your healing space are more 'real' than those of other healers. The objects will not disappear after the healing is completed. As more and more objects are cured, the things in your healing space will increase and pile up, causing your space to become more and more disordered, affecting your healing efficiency."

Listening to Elder Radi's words, the young doctor became even more dejected: "Isn't this just a disease? Elder Radi, is there still hope for me? I still want to cure many more patients, and I also want to save the whole world..."

“Everyone can cure patients quickly, but I can’t. I can’t even find where the patients are, and it’s a waste of time... They all look down on me and don’t let me participate in the treatment.” The young doctor complained.

"They are not looking down on you. They are just worried that the patient won't be able to hold on for long. We are doctors and we have to be responsible for our patients," Elder Radi comforted.

"But I want to prove myself." The young doctor said weakly.

"No problem." The elder said lightly, then stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance.

"Do you see the empty island below? That is Senluo Island. The Council of Elders decided to build a species protection zone on it to protect rare species. Your ability is very suitable for being a manager. As long as you can sort out the disordered healing space, the healing of the same object will be faster than other doctors. This is your talent, and it is also the reason why you are more suitable than others."

"For every creature that comes to Senluo Island, you can record them in the healing space, so that you can monitor their physical condition in time, and even treat them remotely and manage them."

Elder Radi explained carefully, and the young doctor listened very carefully...

"Elder, how can I sort out the disordered healing space? I don't think I can do what you said."

"It's okay." The elder patted the young healer's shoulder and said, "Take it one step at a time..." "First, you have to build another Senluo Island in the healing space."

"Then, after each creature comes to the island, you have to heal them. This time, you don't have to really heal anything. Just record their body information in your space and place it on the fictional Senluo Island. In this way, your healing space will 'overlap' with reality, and you can also control everything on Senluo Island through your own healing space."

Hearing the elder's words, the young doctor agreed seriously.

"Elder Rady, can I still participate in other healings?"

"Of course, but you have to fulfill your duties first."

"I will definitely complete it!" The young doctor who was entrusted with the important task was no longer discouraged, as his ability was finally recognized.

However, the emptiness in my heart still cannot be filled...

Elder Radi's figure slowly disappeared, and the young doctor also turned around, looking at Mo Ling and Xi from the center of the light ball.

"This is not a heavy responsibility, this is a bondage... I am protecting the creatures on Senluo Island, but I am also bound by Senluo Island. I am controlling everything on Senluo Island, and Senluo Island is also controlling me. This is a cage, an empty cage."

"All the creatures on Senluo Island are your patients. How can you still feel empty?" Xi asked in disbelief.

"It's not enough. It's far from enough. I can heal the whole world. What is Senluo Island?" the young doctor asked back.

"I also want to see those unheard-of diseases, I also want to save those terminally ill patients, and I also want to fight the disease myself, instead of being a mascot on this peaceful Senluo Island!"

The light on the young doctor's head raged again, and the blazing flames reflected his ambition. It was precisely because of that unfulfilled ambition that he felt endless emptiness.

Just when the flames were about to engulf everything again, the figure of the elder beside the young doctor appeared again. The blurry figure slowly bent down and hugged the young doctor.

The escaping flames trembled suddenly and shrank back.

"Elder Rady, I still want to save the world."

“I know,” Elder Raddy replied gently.

Elder Radi held the young healer in his arms, turned toward the cliff, and looked into the distance together.

"Before saving the world, let me ask you a question. Have you protected your patients?" Elder Radi said softly.

"My...patient?"

The young doctor looked at everything on Senluo Island below, and his burning ambition seemed to shrink back in an instant along with the fire.

The matrix forest is beyond recognition.

A messy and twisted body with broken limbs.

An extremely strange fusion creature.

……

"Elder Raddy, I cured them... From now on, they will never get sick again."
