I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 873 Prison Break
"How do I escape from prison?"

Everyone is now faced with a serious problem:

They don’t know how to leave the bubble.

The team leader had previously learned about this from the people in the isolation bubble research group, and they boasted to the team leader with great confidence:
“Nothing can get through the bubble without permission.”

Unexpectedly, this city wall that was used to protect against external invasions has now become a cage for trapping prisoners.

"Is the isolation bubble also made by dream energy?" Hu Le asked the team leader.

The team leader nodded, then shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that they definitely used dream energy. The specific structure of the isolation bubble is a very high level of confidential information, and the people in the isolation bubble research team will not tell me this."

Thinking about the quarantine bubble, everyone's face became full of worry...

They never expected that the first step of the jailbreak would get stuck.

Hu Le was also surprised. There were so many of them, and they had lived in Dream City for so long, but they had never thought about how to get through the isolation bubble...

"Have we never thought about how to get out?"

However, this is also normal. In the eyes of the residents of Mengdu, the isolation bubble is a barrier to protect them. Who would have thought that one day they would be trapped by the barrier?

And the difficulties don’t end there…

"After passing through the isolation bubble, we will enter the eternal night. Does anyone know how to travel through the eternal night? How do we find the Abyss Hole and return to the top of the Abyss Hole? How do we return to the upper layers?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

They only thought about going back, but didn't think about how to go back.

Jailbreaking is easy to say, but they have no idea about it.

They are all researchers with little combat capability. During the process of descending into the abyss, they relied on the help of others to survive crisis after crisis. Now, they are asked to face the abyss alone. Even though they are in a group, they don’t know how to face it.

"Are we too weak..."

"How did we get here?"

When discussing how they came to Mengdu, some people even looked confused.

They just watched the fighters killing and killing, and they ran and ran until they got there.

It is already difficult to move forward in the abyss. Everyone has their own things to consider and will not focus on things outside of their duties.

This also leads to the fact that these researchers know nothing about all the "fighting and killing" stuff.

Some of them have relics, but these relics have nothing to do with battle.

Some relics are used to enhance concentration, some are used to analyze the composition of matter, some are used to observe microscopic particles, and some are used to keep oneself awake...

These relics do have powerful abilities in a sense, but these abilities cannot be used in combat, nor can they be used to ensure one's own safety.

Throwing them out of the isolation bubble now is like throwing a group of babies into the desert without any ability to resist danger.

Faced with this situation, the conference room fell silent again.

Hu Le looked at everyone who was confused and didn't know what to do.

At this moment, the team leader suddenly spoke. He took a deep breath, as if he had made a very difficult decision: "Hu Le, go to the laboratory and get the dream catcher."

Hearing the team leader's words, Hu Le was stunned.

Dream catcher... That is the device their research group uses to conduct experiments on focusing dream energy. Only the team leader has the authority to operate it. What's the point of bringing that thing over?

Although Hu Le didn't understand the team leader's idea, he still agreed and walked out of the meeting room.

Outside the house, a cool breeze blew in, clearing Hu Le's somewhat dazed mind. What happened today flashed through his mind, and he frowned in confusion.

It seems that, all of a sudden, everything has changed...

Originally, everyone was immersed in the joy of the project being completed successfully, but now they suddenly fell into the abyss of despair, and only thought about how to leave Mengdu.

This was the place they had fought for for a long time, but now it had become a prison that trapped them.

"What about the can of Coke from 20 years later, and the authority tool that suddenly appeared in my pocket?"

Hu Le couldn't understand it. It was all too much of a coincidence. It seemed to be reminding him that something big was going to happen today.

He squeezed the can of Coke he had been holding in his hand, and suddenly felt a sense of unreality. His eyes suddenly became blurry, as if everything in his field of vision suddenly split into colorful double images...

Hu Le quickly took a deep breath, and the cold air seeped into his lungs. The strange double images in front of his eyes gradually disappeared.

"Maybe I'm overthinking..."

He exhaled the foul air in his chest and walked towards the laboratory.

Soon, he arrived at the laboratory, which can be said to be the "home" of all team members. Hu Le pushed open the door and looked at the furnishings inside, as if he saw how everyone used to be busy together.

but now……

Hu Le stopped lamenting. He walked to the central laboratory table, picked up a device that looked like a hair dryer, then turned around and left the laboratory.

This is the dream catcher that the team leader mentioned. Only by using this dream catcher can one interfere with the illusory dream energy. Hu Le has never used it. The team leader seldom asks others to help and usually uses this device himself.

According to him, coming into contact with dream energy is a very dangerous behavior, and every time a dream catcher is used, there is a risk to one's life.

One of the members who died in the previous team was killed because of using this device...

Hu Le did not dare to delay. Holding the dream catcher, he quickened his pace and quickly returned to the meeting room.

"Team leader, I'm back."

"Did you get it?"

"Ah."

Hu Le carefully handed over the dream catcher in his hand.

After the team leader got the dream catcher that looked like a hair dryer, he began to debug it.

Everyone in the conference room was waiting patiently, and soon the team leader finished debugging and raised the dream catcher in his hand.

"Everyone, I'm going to activate the device. Next, no matter what you see, don't panic. I have set the dream catcher range to the entire conference room. During this process, do not leave this range."

After a few serious instructions, the team leader pointed the "hair dryer" at the center of the conference room and pressed the button on the dream catcher.

Call ~
Suddenly, a breeze blew across Hu Le's cheek. He subconsciously reached out to touch it, only to find that his hands were covered in blood.

"I'm bleeding?"

Hu Le was stunned for a moment.

"But I'm not hurt..."

There was no pain anywhere on his body. Hu Le was puzzled for a moment, then looked at his hands and found that the blood had flowed down through his fingers and turned into a green mucus as it fell.

"I see, this isn't blood..."
