I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 785: Going to the Past
The scale of time seems to become blurred as we continue to move forward.

The stone bricks on the ground next to the pyramid are becoming newer and newer, with fewer and fewer scratches, and these traces left by time are gradually disappearing.

Walking through the shadows, Li Luo seemed to pass through a series of scales. She felt her feet becoming a little numb. After all the spatial displacements were converted into temporal movement, she was actually just standing still.

Li Luo suddenly had an illusion that she had not moved at all, but the world was moving...

The endless night and the surrounding shadows were flying backwards with her footsteps. It was like she was walking on a giant treadmill, and the world was constantly retreating with her as the center.

The huge pyramid became a light background, surging towards her like a tide, and then flew away in the blink of an eye.

"I seem to be walking faster and faster..."

Li Luo didn't know how far back in time she would have to go before the murals would become unrestored. She had climbed many pyramids, and the repetitive scenes had made her numb.

The same pyramids, the same bricks, the same steps, the same temples, the same walls, the same murals, the same scribbled graffiti…

The image of the unknown messenger kept appearing in her mind, sometimes turning into a twisted triangle, sometimes into a messy ball of thread, and sometimes into an ugly circle.

Now, she doesn't need an electronic screen to recall the contents of the mural at will. Every detail and every corner are engraved in her mind.

The block behind her followed her unchanged, as if it had become a part of her. The passage of time seemed to be getting thinner and thinner, becoming more and more narrow, making Li Luo feel more and more suffocated.

With her numb mind, she climbed up the pyramid in front of her and stood at the entrance of the temple. A voice suddenly awakened her sinking thoughts and pulled her back to reality from the passing timeline.

"Don't be stunned, come and help me."

A voice suddenly came from the darkness in front of him, and then a slate filled with paint was suddenly placed in Li Luo's hand.

"Go ahead and paint it over."

The image in Li Luo's night vision goggles was blurry. She seemed to see a distorted shadow walking towards the wall with the murals.

Holding the slate, Li Luo followed as if possessed.

She subconsciously looked at the mural in front of her and found that it had not been modified!
Li Luo didn't even have the mood to find out what the phantom was. He immediately stared at the area on the mural that was about to be modified.

She finally saw the messenger's appearance clearly:

That was - a ball of fire.

A burning fire.

"Hurry, paint it off." A voice from the side urged.

"Why do you want to paint it over?" Li Luo asked back.

"Because it's watching us... We use its image to record its existence, but it will discover it. It has found us. Although we are hiding very secretly, as long as the connection is still there, it will definitely catch up. Its minions have already found us."

The shadow gently lifted up Li Luo's hand that was holding the stone slab.

Fluffy and very warm.

Feeling the unique touch, Li Luo immediately realized that this was the creature in the mural.

"But why can I understand their language?"

Those voices seemed to be transmitted directly into her body, telling her the specific meaning directly.

"Apply it quickly, hurry up."

The creature next to him was still urging him and handed him a slate pencil.

Faced with this unknown creature, Li Luo had no choice but to dip his paint in it and start painting it randomly according to the modified appearance of the mural in his memory.

A twisted triangle.

A tangled ball of thread.

An ugly circle.

……

"You draw so ugly." The creature said softly beside Li Luo.

"But as long as it's covered, thank you."

Li Luo was stunned at the familiar scribbled drawing in front of him, then turned to look into the darkness.

“Why don’t you draw it yourself?”

"I can't touch it." A weak voice came from the darkness.

"Why can't I touch it?" Li Luo asked.

"because……"

Before he finished his words, the blurry shadow in Li Luo's night vision goggles suddenly broke, like a bursting bubble, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Li Luo looked around in confusion, but he didn't see the shadow anymore.

Inside the temple, it was quiet and pitch black...

Li Luo looked at his hands; the slate and slate pencil filled with paint were nowhere to be seen, as if they had disappeared along with the shadow.

However, when I turned around and looked at the mural next to me, the graffiti I had just added was still there, and the paint was still very wet...

"How is this going?"

Li Luo was a little confused about the current situation. She walked back to the temple entrance in a daze, only to find that the cube was slowly floating from below.

An electronic screen was sent to the top of the cube, and Li Luo quickly took it and took a look:
"Don't walk too fast."

Li Luo was stunned again.

"Am I walking too fast?"

In the past, no matter how fast she walked, Fang Cube could always keep up. But now he actually said that she walked too fast?
She recalled her experience on the time channel and realized belatedly that she might have fallen into some kind of "acceleration".

Mo Ling in the cube was also confused. He was following Li Luo just fine, but suddenly Li Luo's movement speed increased.

His stride and frequency did not change, but he walked faster and faster, as if he was being sent forward by a conveyor belt, until he could no longer keep up even if he tried his best.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Li Luo rushing up a pyramid at an extremely fast speed, and he immediately followed.

Fortunately, I finally caught up.

Mo Ling quickly wrote a few words on the electronic screen and sent it out to remind Li Luo.

However, Li Luo doesn't seem to be affected at all now, but his expression is a little solemn.

"A lot of things just happened."

Li Luo suddenly said to Cube.

A lot of things? Mo Ling was a little confused. It hadn't been long since he left Li Luo and caught up with him. How could so many things have happened?
Li Luo pondered for a moment, and told Mo Ling everything he had just experienced in the temple...

After listening to Li Luo's story, Mo Ling quickly looked into the interior of the temple and began searching inside.

However, it was empty inside, and apart from the wet paint on the murals, there was nothing strange to be found.

There were no living creatures as Li Luo had described, nor were there any slates or slate pencils.

Mo Ling even suspected that Li Luo had just experienced an illusion.

He also wrote his questions on the electronic screen:
"Hallucination?"

Li Luo looked at the electronic screen and shook his head.

"It's not an illusion. I can feel it...it touches me. It's definitely not an illusion."

"But if it can touch me, why can't it touch the mural?"
