I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 779: Different Time Zone

"These are not sand, but the homes of some microorganisms..."

Mo Ling gradually understood that this information came from tiny creatures living on the "gravel". They would build a building that looked exactly like the gravel and mixed it with other gravel to hide their tracks.

The gravel that flies into the air was built by them. They fly their homes into the night sky to avoid the "bad time zone".

This is also a type of area in the Eternal Night that appears occasionally.

The reason why those sand creatures are afraid of different time zones is that they will take them to another time.

The time rules in the differential time zone are different from those in the outside world. It may be fast or slow. It may flow toward the past or move toward the future. It may bring the creatures that enter it to the past or to the future.

Whether it is the past or the future, it is terrifying because it means that the living environment has undergone tremendous changes.

The best option is to escape to a bad time zone.

Just like what those sand creatures said, the further down you go in the time zone, the greater the difference with normal time will be. The high concentration of "time sand" sinks to the bottom. Once you fall into it, there will be a huge time deviation from reality, and you will be taken to the distant past or future.

By escaping into the sky, one can escape the influence of time deviation to the greatest extent. Even if a deviation occurs, it will not be very large.

Therefore, the phenomenon of "sand and gravel rising into the air" occurred.

Those sand creatures are fleeing to areas close to the real time, which causes the earth to continue sinking.

After realizing this, Mo Ling quickly found the electronic screen and wanted to tell Li Luo about this matter.

But his hands had now turned into sharp claws. Mo Ling struggled to write with his knuckles, but he kept touching the wrong places.

Even the simple three words "run upward" took a long time.

After writing the message with great difficulty, Mo Ling looked outside, only to find that the phenomenon of sand and gravel rising into the air had almost stopped.

"It can't be that we have reached the bottom..." Mo Ling had a bad feeling.

I just wasted too much time listening to those sand creatures talking and writing on the electronic screen. Now the ground has sunk to an unknown depth.

Li Luo stood on the sand, not knowing what was happening.

Just as Mo Ling was about to send the electronic screen out, he heard the earth tremble.

The surroundings suddenly began to shake, and the little remaining sand suddenly dispersed, revealing the hard stone ground.

Li Luo also felt something was wrong with his feet, so he bent down, pushed away the sand under his feet, and touched them carefully.

"Stone?"

She was stunned for a moment, then confirmed it again in disbelief.

Mo Ling also hurriedly reached down and discovered that underneath the thin layer of sand there were actually some kind of stone bricks with scratches from chiseling on them, clearly built by some civilization.

"Why are there traces of civilization at the bottom of the time zone?"

Mo Ling's vision expanded further and further until he discovered that there was actually a building under the sand.

"A building that looks like a Mayan pyramid."

At this time, the building was covered by sand, with only the top layer of bricks exposed, and this layer of bricks happened to be stepped on by Li Luo.

"No, we can't dawdle any longer, we have to go quickly."

After seeing this ancient pyramid building, Mo Ling's ominous premonition became more and more serious, and he decisively sent the electronic screen out.

But after Li Luo received the electronic screen, he shook his head at Mo Ling. "You can't go up. It's sealed up."

Sealed?
Mo Ling quickly reached upwards and found that the top was actually blocked by thick sand and gravel.

"How could this be?"

Stuck here?
He quickly controlled the block to fly upwards, trying to find an exit.

But things did not go as he wished. The sand and gravel blocked the top tightly and kept floating upwards, squeezing each other together. Even the gaps were sealed by fine dust.

Mo Ling didn't dare to use the teleportation at will. The gravel could still remain stable at the moment. If the balance was disrupted, it might collapse directly, and they would all be buried underneath.

The way up was blocked, so Mo Ling had to return to Li Luo.

"Why do we want to escape upwards?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"Wrong time zone." Mo Ling wrote three words on the electronic screen with difficulty and sent them to Li Luo.

"Wrong time zone?" Li Luo read out in confusion, and then quickly searched on his electronic screen.

Fortunately, there happened to be information on time zone differences in the database. After looking at it for a while, Li Luo understood Mo Ling's idea.

"It seems that we can't escape for the time being. We have to find another way to leave here..."

After understanding the principle of different time zones, Li Luo's expression became more serious. The change in time rules is no joke.

They are now at a very deep depth, and the time deviation is also very large. The longer they stay, the more obvious this deviation will become, and they will be further and further away from the normal time point, and even go to some incomprehensible eras.

The appearance of the bad time zone was silent, and if it weren't for those sand creatures, they wouldn't have noticed that the area under their feet had changed.

The earth was still shaking from time to time, seemingly caused by the squeezing of those sand creatures. The sand above was becoming denser and denser, and it was almost impossible to leave from it.

Mo Ling thought about it for a long time but couldn't find a way to leave.

The rise of sand and gravel caused a huge hole to appear here, and they are now in this hole, caught in a dilemma.

There are also those strange buildings below, and I don’t know where they came from.

Mo Ling was in a dilemma when Li Luo spoke up: "Let's go to the side, find the edge of the hole, and drill a diagonal upward passage to get out. That way the possibility of collapse will be smaller."

This is indeed a better way, although it may take a long time, but it is the only way.

Mo Ling's control cube trembled, indicating his agreement.

Li Luo didn't hesitate and walked in a direction...

Because they were in a different time zone, Li Luo quickened her pace. She knew that the longer she stayed here, the more variables there would be, and she had to reach the edge of the hole as soon as possible.

However, after walking for a long time, they did not reach the edge of the cave, but instead found many identical pyramid buildings.

Some pyramid buildings even floated out of the sand and stood on the path that Li Luo was moving forward.

The mottled stone bricks were still covered in dust, with traces of human excavation clearly visible, and they did not seem to have been worn away by the sand.

The further they went, the more pyramids there were, and the more pyramids that were not buried by sand. Li Luo began to regret whether he had chosen the wrong direction.

Not only that, she also found that these newly emerging pyramids are becoming more and more "brand new".
