I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 10 Shock Beast Pit

confusion.

The shock beasts gathered here from all directions have evolved into various forms.

None of it looks normal.

Those with extra limbs are the most numerous.

Three-legged, four-legged, centipede-shaped...

The feet also come in various shapes, some with flippers and some with hooks and spikes.

This is differential evolution caused by coming from different places.

Some even have the spherical metal mesh on their bodies stretched out, their joints shortened, and transformed into a soaring bird structure.

The shock beasts who had just arrived in the pit were quickly blocked by their companions.

The worm unleashes the shock beast's instinct to attack its own kind.

These shock beasts of different shapes began to fight in a melee.

The Centipede Shock Beast kept pushing towards the depths, running rampant.

The frequent vibrations attracted the surrounding companions to notice it and start besieging it.

The companion with the hook pokes the arthropod into the centipede's body, trapping the centipede in place.

The bird vibrator glides down from a high place and attacks the centipede's head.

Then it was hooked by the metal net on the centipede's head and kept flopping in place.

In the end, this group of shock beasts turned into a wildly shaking ball.

The jointed limbs locked them tightly, never letting go of each other, and the stalemate continued forever.

As soon as the car entered the deep pit, it was blocked by various arthropod balls.

Fortunately, these concussion beasts are keen on attacking similar species that can cause greater vibrations, and have no reaction to the car.

Carefully move around the melee area.

Came to a slightly quiet area.

But this "quiet" just lacks the sound of metal clashing.

The huge and dull vibration and roar continued.

That's coming from underground.

In Mo Ling's field of vision, the ground was filled with arthropod balls composed of shock beasts.

The arthropod balls produced in the melee will not disappear out of thin air.

Instead, it kept vibrating and eventually sank into the soil.

But evolution continues.

The strong one among the shock beasts broke free from the cage of the arthropods.

Go through another period of evolution.

Breaking out of the ground.

Some of them took on the form of moles, with their jointed limbs turning into claws.

Others abandoned one leg, and the remaining leg turned into a squirming earthworm.

But even more are various insect forms.

Cicadas, centipedes, ants, cutworms.

Mo Ling was shocked.

This is convergent evolution.

They have nothing to do with the creatures far away on Earth, but because of the same environment, they happened to evolve similar morphological structures.

At the same time, these creatures that emerged from the ground also have the same characteristic.

Huge.

A huge and ferocious ant-like shock beast rushed out of the surface and walked towards the center.

Blocking out the sky and the sun, the car was instantly covered by the shadow of the ant's body.

This terrifying creature didn't pay attention to the movement under its feet, or perhaps this was no longer an obstacle to it.

The vibration forced Li Luo to stop the car and stared blankly at Ant as he walked forward.

Mo Ling was beaten to pieces in the metal block.

It wasn't until the ants were far away that they recovered from the shock.

"terrible."

The space in the cube was limited, and Mo Ling had no way to deal with such a huge creature.

Li Luo's face was also full of fear, but after Ant left, he still started the car without hesitation.

The car drove towards the center, and a mountain could be seen in the distance.

A mountain made of metal joints. Countless giant vibrating beasts stopped on the side of the mountain and turned into a member of the mountain.

The huge size means huge weight.

The ant just walked to the front of the mountain and climbed up with difficulty, but because of its size, it slipped down.

Scattered metal limbs fell along the ant and pressed on its body.

Something like this happened elsewhere on the mountain, with gaps made of metal joints blocking the steps toward the center.

The huge body now became an obstacle.

Finding an empty shell of an earthworm-shaped shock beast, Li Luo reluctantly drove the car and climbed up.

Bumpy.

The hard inner wall of the metal block made Mo Ling's whole body ache.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the car to arrive on the mountain.

This is a flat-topped mountain, and broken metal blocks filled the gaps in the mountain. Finally, the car no longer had such difficulty driving.

Vibrations kept coming from outside the mountain, but it was very quiet on the hill.

There was only a rustling sound coming from under my feet. If I listened carefully, I found that it was the sound of metal friction.

Mo Ling saw countless metal mesh rolling balls squeezing toward the center along the gaps in the mountain.

These rolling balls abandoned their huge bodies, but they didn't expect that the gap became smaller and smaller, becoming a dead end.

Instead, it filled the gaps and became the support of the mountain.

Li Luo got out of the car and saw the inside of the mountain through the gap.

After taking notes, she slowly drove forward.

The car followed behind, and Mo Ling's vision also came to the red pool.

The lake looked perfectly calm in the distance, but when we got closer we found that it was not.

The flesh and blood slimes abandoned their metal shells and squeezed through the gaps to the center.

The pool seemed to be a living creature, constantly squirming and tumbling.

The edges of the slimes are blurred and intertwined. They are constantly undulating and rotating, forming vortices.

When they came to the pool, the black horn wrapped in red waves also appeared in Mo Ling's field of vision.

It’s not an illusion, it’s really pure black!

Mo Ling had never seen such a dark object.

Black objects seen in the past will still be slightly reflective, and stains falling on them will also have color.

But the black corner surrounded by slimes seemed to absorb all the light.

Marveling at the strangeness of the abyss's creation, Mo Ling also remembered Li Luo's previous plan.

I came here at great risk just to get the black horn.

Now that the distance is enough, try to bring the black corners in first.

Mo Ling aimed at the black horn, and with a thought, the black horn appeared in the metal space.

The surroundings fell silent for a moment.

The moment Mo Ling put the black horn into the space, the vibration stopped.

what happened?

With limited vision, Mo Ling didn't know what happened.

He only noticed that within the range of his perception, there was no longer a dull vibration.

The red pool that was always gushing suddenly turned into a pool of stagnant water.

The flesh and blood slimes stagnated, as if they were dead.

The metal balls that kept rolling deep in the Arthropod Mountains lost their power and rolled into the deep crevices under the influence of gravity.

Li Luo also looked puzzled.

The moment the black horn disappeared, she was already in the car, ready to escape.

The current situation was obviously beyond her expectation.

Mo Ling looked at Heijiao lying quietly on the ground, afraid to breathe.

He felt the air suddenly condense.

Fortunately, the girl's reaction was quick.

After being stunned for a moment, he drove away from the center.

On the outside of the mountain, there is still endless silence.

Mo Ling was used to the vibration sound, but now it suddenly became quiet, which made him feel a little strange.
