I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 774 Dark Eclipse
"Take a deep breath..."

A familiar voice suddenly came.

It was Lan Yu, Mo Ling heard it.

"I can't breathe..." Mo Ling wanted to tell Lan Yu, but he couldn't move now and his whole body had lost consciousness.

"You are being eroded." Lan Yu said suddenly.

Dark Eclipse? What does that mean?
Mo Ling wanted to ask more, but couldn't open his mouth.

But Lan Yu seemed to understand his current situation very well and continued talking.

"Do you know where the light comes from?"

"Light sources can be divided into three main categories..."

"The first type is light generated by thermal effects. The light ball above the abyss is a good example. Because the surrounding environment is lower in temperature than the light ball, in order to achieve thermal equilibrium, the light ball will continue to release energy in the form of electromagnetic waves until the surrounding temperature reaches the same level as it."

"The second type is atomic transition, where fluorescent substances are excited by electromagnetic wave energy to produce light. Most artificial light sources use this principle."

"The third type is the light produced when charged particles inside matter accelerate. These particles carry strong energy and will spontaneously emit radiation, which is also called high-energy particle luminescence."

"Have you found anything in common among these light sources?"

"They all show 'energy transfer'. In fact, light is energy. Only when it carries energy can it be called light."

"After understanding this principle, you can understand why the dark eclipse occurs..."

"Absolute darkness represents an absolutely low energy level. Any light and any energy will be 'swallowed' by this darkness, resulting in energy loss. Objects with higher energy levels are more likely to lose energy. You can use temperature to understand this. When the contact area and heat transfer coefficient are determined, the greater the temperature difference, the higher the heat transfer efficiency."

"The same is true for light. Darkness is a constant low energy level. The greater the energy level difference, the faster the energy transfer, and the faster the dark erosion."

"You are now in a state of high-speed dark erosion. As your energy is lost, your body is falling towards a lower energy level and transforming into a form adapted to darkness..."

"If you want to stop the dark erosion, you must restrain yourself and hide your energy."

convergence?

Hearing this word from Lan Yu's mouth, Mo Ling became even more confused.

He is not light, how can he be restrained?
"Every time we enter the darkness, we will add a thin film at the edge of the light. The energy level of this film is very low. When it comes into contact with the darkness, dark erosion will still occur, but the speed of dark erosion is very slow. We can also replace the film so that the darkness will never touch the main body. Even the most active Red Desire will adopt this method."

"Just like those little creatures put on a piece of 'clothing' for themselves, we also have our own clothes, woven with thin light to block the loss of energy."

"You have to think of a way to avoid exposing yourself to the 'cold winter'..."

According to Lan Yu, Mo Ling is now suffering from "hypothermia".

His energy level is too high, and the speed of dark erosion is too fast. If he does not converge, he will soon fall to the same energy level as the darkness and become a being in the darkness.

It is easy to fall, but difficult to rise.

By then, it will be difficult to return to normal energy levels.

It is also completely unknown what will become of Mo Ling.

Mo Ling shuddered when he thought of the strange hairy creature he had just seen in the dark.

"You have to find a way to hide yourself."

Where can I hide?
Mo Ling thought for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him...

"Can't I just hide back in the cube?"

At this time, his whole body was covered with strange phantoms, and only the cube head remained the same, which showed that the cube could isolate the dark erosion. But how could he get back into the cube?

This seems to be a passive skill, and Mo Ling himself doesn't know how to trigger it.

He recalled every time he returned to the cube, trying to find a way to trigger it, but found that there was no trace at all.

"How did I get back..."

As he thought about it, Mo Ling became more and more confused. Every time he felt relieved and dazed, he would go back...

"and many more……"

Could it be because of that feeling of relief?

Once you relax, you will go back?
Mo Ling thought about it and it seemed to be true.

When you get nervous, it will come out and turn into a square head shape. When you relax, it will shrink back. It seems as simple as that.

Every time he finished solving some problems and began to relax, his consciousness would begin to wander and become dazed, and then when he came back to his senses, he would go in.

"Is that the reason?"

Mo Ling felt like he had grasped the key point and wanted to give it a try immediately, but given the current situation, he couldn't relax.

The sound of his heartbeat had completely drowned out Lan Yu's voice, and his heartstrings had become extremely tense, unable to relax at all.

Mo Ling kept trying to relax himself, but the effects of the dark erosion had already appeared on him.

The hair became longer and longer, the body became twisted, the spine began to bend, the forelimbs stretched to the point where they could reach the ground, and sharp claws grew on the fingertips. The most terrifying thing was the heart, which turned into a trembling spider and crawled to the top of the head, clinging to the head with the limbs made from blood vessels.

The color on Mo Ling's body gradually faded and turned pitch black. Except for the square on the top of his head which still retained its metallic color, everything else merged with the darkness.

He now looked like an upright square-headed wolf, with a hunched body and a strange heart spider clinging to his head.

Mo Ling watched his body gradually change, but his whole body was numb and he could not move. He did not dare to activate the teleportation at will, for fear of causing any damage to his body.

"Is there no other way?"

Looking at his body that was becoming more and more alienated, Mo Ling's heart was filled with despair. He raised his numb arms with force, stretched out his sharp claws with difficulty, scratched the hair on his body, and found that he could now touch it easily. This strange shape was no longer an illusion.

"Has it been completely corrupted?"

A feeling of powerlessness came over Mo Ling, and he completely collapsed.

Darkness instantly surrounded him and swallowed him up.

But just after being completely swallowed by the darkness, Mo Ling's numb body actually felt a hint of warmth.

When you completely blend into the darkness, you will completely adapt to it.

The dark eclipse is over, and of course there is no more pain from energy loss.

The sharp claws trembled, and Mo Ling's hair stood up. Bathed in this darkness, he actually felt a sense of security.

There was no light, and there were rustling sounds and mixed smells everywhere, but this was part of darkness, and Mo Ling, who had already merged into the darkness, was no longer afraid of these things.

Everything has become extremely familiar.

This is the norm in the darkness, full of dangers yet peaceful.

After the dark erosion reached its peak, Mo Ling's heart was no longer tense. He completely became a member of the Eternal Night, and relaxed in the reassuring darkness. His thoughts began to gradually diverge...
