I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 697 Tower
"You can fly, right?"

"Ah."

"Did you store that can of Coke in a different dimension? Or another world?"

"That's about the same." Mo Ling didn't know how to explain it.

"That's enough." The man in red didn't ask any more questions. He was very excited and rushed to an alley with Mo Ling. A strange building could be seen from a distance.

The building looked like a tall tower made of red glowing stones. The top of the tower was swaying with dazzling red light, and countless points of light gathered on the edge of the tower, looking very spectacular.

Strangely, there seem to be many weird-looking structures on this tower.

"They brought these in from outside." The man in red pointed at the strange structures on the tower from a distance and said to Mo Ling.

Mo Ling looked in the direction he pointed and found that there were many things like biological bones, fur, and shells hanging on the tower. Some were sandwiched between the gaps of the red stones, and some were attached to the walls of the tower. It was unknown what fixed them.

These strange structures are symmetrical along the center of the tower. They look very abrupt, but they are extremely regular. Even the bones appear to have been processed, and the fur is covered with incomprehensible runes using blood or something like that.

“It’s like a ceremony.”

The more you look at this tower, the stranger it seems, and it exudes weirdness at every turn.

"What are you doing?" Mo Ling asked the man in red.

"call."

"Summon?" Mo Ling didn't react for a moment.

"There is a relic in the tower that can summon similar creatures based on the remains of creatures around it. Do you see those structures above? Those are the creatures that held on to the end and did not turn into red light." The man in red explained, pointing at the remains of the creatures.

"Didn't those creatures become zombies?" Mo Ling was very confused: "What is the purpose of summoning those creatures?"

"Of course it works. It didn't turn into red light, which means it has the ability to resist burning from red light... After those creatures leave the dance floor, they will be hunted by them, and then they will place the remains of those creatures here. After a period of time, similar creatures will be summoned here, just like a lottery."

"Some of these creatures have stronger resistance, while others have weaker resistance. After they throw these creatures back to the dance floor, they will select the creatures with stronger resistance, and then they will continue to hunt and collect the remains."

"If this continues, the power of the red light will continue to increase, but in the long run, a creature that can completely resist the red light will be selected, it just takes a little longer."

After listening to the explanation of the man in red, Mo Ling finally understood the function of this tower.

At the same time, he also gained a deeper understanding of the cruelty of these city people.

"These summoned creatures are just their test subjects..."

"Was that relic originally in Hongguang City?" Mo Ling asked curiously.

The man in red shook his head. "No, this was also stolen by those guys from the later comers. Because they also had internal fights among themselves, the spoils were often unevenly divided, so they placed the relic in the tower. This way, it does not belong to any party and can achieve their goal..."

Mo Ling looked at the tower, then turned to look at the man in red: "Do you want me to steal the relic? What do you want to do with it?"

The man in red quickly waved his hand and said, "Of course not. If you steal that thing, you will become the target of public criticism. I won't let you do that. I want you to deliver something."

"what?"

"It is also biological remains. I intend to interfere with the identification of that relic."

"Why are you doing this? To stop them from hunting any more?"

"No." The man in red shook his head.

He pulled Mo Ling to the wall, sighed deeply, reached into his coat, and took out a wrinkled photo from the inside pocket.

It was a group photo, with men and women all smiling at the camera. The man in red was among them, but he was standing in the corner, also wearing the same red coat. In the photo, he looked much younger than he is now, with no signs of fatigue on his face. He was a young man full of vigor and vitality.

But now, his face was full of fatigue and his eyes were bloodshot.

He wiped the photo and said calmly:
"Twenty people in total, all dead..."

"completely annihilated."

"I'm the only one left."

The atmosphere dropped to freezing point, but the man in red smiled bitterly and took the photo back.

"What exactly happened?" Mo Ling asked cautiously.

The man in red pointed at the tower and said calmly, "They did it..."

As if talking about something completely unrelated, the man in red slowly told Mo Ling about his experience...

……

The people in the photo are from an Abyss Hunting Group. They fought together from the first floor all the way to the fifth floor.

Their hunting group was very lucky. Even if someone was injured, it was only a minor injury and no one had ever died.

By chance, they came to Hongguang City, which was the beginning of their nightmare.

The city exudes an alluring red light in the endless darkness. No matter what kind of creature it is, they will want to come in and take a look, including humans. So, with a common decision, they entered the Rainbow City.

At first, they were very careful, but after encountering some creatures, they found that those creatures ignored them, so they relaxed their vigilance and followed those creatures to the edge of the dance floor.

Just then, music started, and the three team members were dragged onto the dance floor by the incoming creatures, without having time to escape.

The other team members wanted to follow in, but after seeing the strange situation on the dance floor, they decided to stay away for the time being.

The music became more and more harsh, red spots of light poured onto the dance floor, all creatures began to sway uncontrollably, and even the team members hiding outside felt the burning desire.

Fortunately, after the frantic dance, the three team members were not transformed into red light. Instead, they used the relics to withstand the burning of the red light. However, all three of them fell into a state of blurred consciousness.

Just as the other team members were about to rescue the three people, they arrived.

The creatures occupying the city set their sights on humans. They thought that humans were creatures that could resist the burning red light, so they surrounded everyone while testing the strength of the members.

The members of the group fought hard, some died, some were injured, and some were completely swallowed up by the price of the relics. They tried their best to open a gap at the edge of the encirclement.

In the end, only the captain and the man in red escaped from the battlefield.

In order to rescue the surrounded team members, the two went back and secretly followed the creatures to the tower, but saw a scene that they would never forget.

"Those guys took their bodies apart, removed their heads, ripped off their scalps, and plucked out their limbs like toys, then arranged them in symmetrical shapes and placed them one by one on that tall tower."

"They are clearly not dead, they just fainted, but those guys don't know that. They are not interested in understanding the physiological structure of humans. They just treat humans as a bunch of materials for summoning..."

"Hands and feet are connected into a line."

"Hair forms a carpet."

"The trunk was crushed into juice, and the blood slowly flowed down from the tall tower..."
