I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 771: Driving into the Dark Night

“When did you start applying?”

"It was shortly after the glacier collapsed, and after I put on Xiao Zi, it kept sending messages. Who is it? Why did I receive such messages?" Li Luo was very confused.

She didn't know what happened, nor did she know what abilities Xiao Zi gained after absorbing the purple light.

Mo Ling thought about it and decided to tell her everything that had happened before.

Purple light, game perspective, seven colors, rejoicers, epidemic suppression tower...

A lot has happened during this time, and they haven't been together, so they need to make things clear.

Li Luo listened carefully and finally understood what had happened to Xiao Zi.

She closed her eyes, her eyelids fluttered, and she took a deep breath.

Then, the purple cloak on her body began to change. First it turned into a rejoicer, then into a goat-headed man, then into Lan Xin, and finally changed back again, turning into a bracelet that was wrapped around her wrist.

"Xiao Zi seems to have recorded their information and can change into their appearance at will. Moreover, it seems that he can also use their power..." Li Luo said with some surprise.

"After refreshing, I no longer receive those friend requests."

As she spoke, she tapped the bracelet with her other hand.

The silk thread on the bracelet quickly stretched out and turned into a long sword.

"All of them have been preserved, and..." Li Luo raised the purple sword: "Xiao Zi seems to have become much smarter."

"What are those purple lights? Why did Xiao Zi undergo such changes after absorbing them?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"It's part of the immune system," Morin explained.

“Could part of the immune system also carry information about the organism being protected?”

Mo Ling and Li Luo discussed it for a while but still couldn't understand.

Purple is not only about attachment and protection, but also about recording something.

But this kind of record may also be a part of protection. After all, only by understanding can we better protect.

"Let's leave it like this for now..."

Anyway, Xiao Zi's new ability is a good thing for Li Luo. Her self-protection ability has been greatly improved.

Compared to Xiao Zi, Li Luo seems to care more about Mo Ling's current appearance.

She looked at Mo Ling's square head and asked curiously, "Why did you become like this? Can you keep it that way?"

"I don't know." Mo Ling looked at himself.

He couldn't figure out his own abilities, and of course he couldn't figure out the changes in his form. Sometimes the changes lasted a little longer, and sometimes they changed back quickly. This time the change took a long time, but at some point he might be distracted and return to the cube again.

Mo Ling still prefers the current state, which allows him to regain the feeling of being "human".

If you are locked in a cage, no matter how big the cage is, you will never be able to adapt to it.

After discussing for a while, Li Luo decided to go pick up supplies. Going through the darkness was a serious matter and could not be taken lightly.

Mo Ling had nothing to do, so after secretly delivering some supplies into the cube, he opened the door of the basement and walked out.

It was a bit stuffy in there, so Mo Ling preferred the outside.

The basement would make him feel like he was still in a cube, and that wasn't a good feeling.

"How long have I been here?"

Looking at the hazy blue light, Mo Ling felt a little unreal for a moment.

He should have been sleeping peacefully, so how did he suddenly end up in this bizarre abyss?

The blue light shone on the metallic square head. The light spots surrounded it, the blue mist filled the air, and creatures outside the alley came and went. They looked strange and bizarre, and Mo Ling could never imagine them, but they maintained a stable physiological structure.

Some of these creatures are stupid, some are smart, and they have completely different concepts and culture from humans. Looking at these creatures, Mo Ling suddenly realized that he had unknowingly accepted the existence of these creatures.

"Intelligent life other than humans."

They just exist, appearing vividly before us.

If it were the Mo Ling of the past, she would definitely jump up with excitement.

Since she was very young, Mo Ling has liked watching "100,000 Whys", "The Complete Collection of Unsolved Mysteries", and "The Mystery of Aliens". She likes sitting in front of the TV and watching those science and education programs with strange sound effects and pretentiousness. She also likes to watch those shoddy science fiction films on the movie channel.

He has been a fantasist since he was young, imagining how he would react if he really saw those creatures with his own eyes one day.

When he was a child, Mo Ling was so obsessed with unsolved mysteries that he even took some things as reality.

His groundhog classmate once used this to scare him, saying that if he saw strange light outside the window at night, he should not open the window, otherwise he would be taken away by aliens.

Mo Ling believed it so firmly that he couldn't sleep for several days.

He discovered that a beam of flickering yellow light would shine in from outside his window at 11:45 every night, very punctually every day.

After listening to the "advice" of his deskmate Marmot, Mo Ling confirmed that it must be aliens who wanted to trick him into opening the window and take him away.

Mo Ling was very scared at the time and hid in the quilt, feeling suffocated. He then opened the quilt a little to let in the cool air, and then closed it suddenly.

It was summer then, and Mo Ling made himself sweat profusely. Due to lack of sleep, he was dazed in class the next day.

A few days later, Mo Ling felt that he couldn't go on like this, so he asked his classmate Groundhog what to do. The classmate Groundhog told him that he could stick some talisman paper on the window to ward off evil spirits, so that the aliens would not come in.

"Will this earth's talisman also work on aliens?"

"Of course it works! That's how our ancestors fought aliens. There are no aliens on Earth now because ancient humans beat them away. Now the aliens see that traditional human culture is declining and most people can't draw talismans, so they dare to invade again. Do you understand?"

Mo Ling was so frightened by his groundhog desk mate that he could only buy a few talismans from him, leaving him with no money left to buy snacks for the day.

In the evening, after Mo Ling finished her homework, she took out the ghost paintings from her bag and stuck them on the window with transparent tape.

Looking at the swaying talisman, Mo Ling felt much more at ease.

"Now, the aliens won't dare to come."

At 11:30, Mo Ling sat up from the bed, and driven by curiosity, he looked out the window for the first time.

Those ghostly drawings gave him great courage. Mo Ling felt that his ancestors were protecting him, and aliens were nothing.

Leaning out of the window and looking out, Mo Ling wanted to see what the aliens looked like. If possible, under the protection of his ancestors, he wanted to ask those aliens why they invaded the earth.

The sound of the alarm clock echoed in the silent room, and Mo Ling finally waited until 11:45.

A familiar light shone in from outside.

Flashing, a little dim, a little psychedelic...

Through the foggy window, Mo Ling finally saw clearly the alien that had tortured him for so long.

It was an old three-wheeled bicycle. The front light was broken, so it kept flashing. The broken light shook up and down as the bicycle moved forward, and it swayed past the window beside Mo Ling's bed again and again.

"It's not an alien, it's Grandpa Zheng from the building opposite..."

Grandpa Zheng's son was paralyzed in bed. He took care of him during the day and set out on time at 11:45 p.m., riding his broken tricycle, turning out of the alley downstairs and heading into the deserted night...

The night was dark and Mo Ling couldn't sleep all night.

He didn't see the aliens he had been thinking about, but he saw something more important...
