I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 722 Heartbeat Principle
They were driven by their heartbeats to the front line of the battlefield.

Then the Bronze Heart controlled their bodies and started the first Green-Yellow War with the Yellow Death Vein. The yellow torrent made all bronze lifeforms feel terrified.

However, they were controlled by their heartbeats and had no fear of death. They fought fiercely and soon forced back the Yellow Death Vein.

After the war, the Bronze Heart quickly released its control over these bronze lives, throwing them, with their energy exhausted, into the bronze blood to soak and recover, just as casually as using a tool.

After this war, some bronze creatures panicked.

As long as there is a war, there will be casualties. Under the reckless manipulation of Bronze Heart, some bronze lives disappeared in the yellow torrent, without even leaving any debris.

The ground was covered with dead yellow worms and became soft, but the bronze creatures knew that it was achieved at the cost of the sacrifice of their companions.

So, some bronze beings began to investigate what happened...

Why did the Bronze Heart suddenly start controlling them?
Why did the war suddenly break out?

They followed the direction in which the Yellow Death Vein retreated and found the exhausted Green Life Kidney, but they did not dare to get close. They could only observe and record from a distance. Before the Yellow Death Vein could make a comeback, they quickly returned and told their companions everything they saw.

Linking the failure of the Green Life Kidney and the invasion of the Yellow Death Vein together, the Bronze Creatures immediately understood what was happening.

The reason why the Bronze Heart suddenly began to manipulate the Bronze Life to wage war was because it knew that it must not allow the Yellow Death Vein's invasion to succeed.

In order to prevent the bronze creatures from being afraid of fighting, they were forced to "recruit" and were not allowed to refuse.

This is the choice of a bronze heart in times of crisis.

It had no way to explain the reason with heartbeat, nor did it dare to bear the consequences of the bronze life refusing the mission, so it had to adopt this method.

After understanding the reasons why Bronze Heart did this, most bronze creatures chose to accept it, because they had received the gift of blood, and since there were benefits, they must pay a price.

What's more, if the Bronze Heart is destroyed, they will have nowhere to go. In essence, they are also fighting for their homes. Although it is "forced conscription", it is not unacceptable.

However, there are still some timid bronze creatures that want to find ways to escape control. These deserters have tried many ways, but as long as they are still bronze creatures, they will definitely be controlled by the heartbeat.

The heartbeat of the bronze heart will inevitably resonate with the bronze shell. This is unavoidable. If you want to enjoy the benefits of bronze life, you must accept the control of the heartbeat and participate in the war. This is an unavoidable price.

After all methods failed, gradually, there were no more deserters.

Only the old phoenix will seal up some of its energy for rapid recovery. It cannot be considered as "cowardice", but only as "slacking off". Even the Bronze Heart will not care.

As batch after batch of bronze creatures died in battle, more creatures came from outside. Some of them came from the Orange Sea, and some came from the Blue Chalcedony. These new creatures were quickly transformed into bronze creatures and joined the war.

Gradually, fewer and fewer bronze lives knew about this past. If they were not asked actively, the surviving "veterans" like the old phoenix would not deliberately talk about this past, as most of them had become numb.

"In this endless night, being blessed by the Bronze Heart is already a very lucky thing. Lifespan is extended, food is no longer a problem, and injuries will heal automatically. Under such circumstances, forced battle is only a negligible price to pay..."

The old phoenix spoke of this past event without much fluctuation in his tone, for it had long since accepted the rules here.

After listening to the old phoenix's story, the bronze statue at the side said helplessly: "Wouldn't it be precarious outside? I can't see the light, and I'm always struggling in confusion, not knowing what to do."

"Here, at least I know what I should do..." Listening to the words of the two bronze life forms, Mo Ling felt a sense of helplessness.

How miserable is the life under the abyss?
"Have you never thought about getting everything back to normal?"

Hearing this question, the old phoenix and the statue looked at Mo Ling.

The huge bird head came up to Mo Ling and observed him with its veiny bronze eyes. It then looked at its bronze shell and suddenly asked a question:
"Do you know why we don't go to the Green Kidney?"

"Because you're scared?"

"Of course not. We also want to study what happened and what caused the failure...but we can't get in," Old Phoenix explained calmly.

"Why?" Mo Ling was a little confused.

"Because it will trigger the heartbeat..."

Old Phoenix and Mo Ling explained patiently.

"The Bronze Heart does not use the distance between the Yellow Death Vein and the heart to determine whether to trigger 'Conscription', but the distance between the Bronze Life and the Yellow Death Vein."

"We have studied this before. When the distance between the bronze life and the yellow death vein reaches a certain limit, the heartbeat will sound, triggering forced conscription and war."

"The Yellow Death Vein will accumulate at the location of the Green Life Kidney. When it reaches a certain number, it will overflow from the Green Life Kidney and rush to the Bronze Heart. That place can be said to be the base camp of the Yellow Death Vein."

"If we actively approach and get too close to the Yellow Death Pulse, it will break the heartbeat alarm distance limit and directly cause the Bronze Heart to beat. At this time, if you happen to be near the Green Kidney, you're done..."

"It's like you're fighting the Yellow Death Vein alone in the base camp. There's no way support from the rear will arrive. The only result is that you'll stimulate the Yellow Death Vein in the base camp and then be devoured directly."

"Not only that, the bronze life in the Bronze Heart will be forcibly recruited by the heartbeat, fighting their way out of the Bronze Heart and running to the vicinity of the Green Kidney for support. What will happen at that time is totally unpredictable..."

This is a suicidal act with a high risk of death. No bronze life would dare to do it. It is very likely to harm oneself and others. Even if the cause of Lu Sheng's kidney failure can be investigated, there is a high possibility that he will not be able to come back.

After listening to Old Phoenix's explanation, Mo Ling immediately understood this.

But at this moment, Mo Ling felt that the gazes of the two bronze creatures became even hotter.

"What's wrong?" Mo Ling felt a little frightened by their looks.

"You are not a bronze life..." the bronze statue suddenly said.

"What do you mean?" Mo Ling didn't react yet.

"You can be a bronze life or not." The old phoenix said seriously: "As long as you remove the bronze life in the right place, the heartbeat alarm will not be triggered."

Hearing this, Mo Ling immediately understood the meaning of that fiery gaze:
"So you're interested in me as a tool..."
