I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 155 The center of the sandstorm

Li Luo finally failed to persuade Bai Zhou.

He has made up his mind to leave and stubbornly wants to return to his "home".

"Don't be so depressed. When you reach the third level of the abyss, maybe we can meet again!" Bai Zhou encouraged.

Li Luo could only nod helplessly.

She could not change Bai Zhou's choice, and could only persuade him: "After you go to the third level of the abyss, remember to find the human island base to update your information, and try to follow the known route."

This is the best she can do.

"Don't worry, humans will always be my best friends." Bai Zhou patted his chest.

"Leave here first."

Afterwards, the two groped around in the Black Tower City and found the stone gate they left.

Unexpectedly, there was not just one stone door, but many. These stone doors led to all parts of the Black Tower, just like any door.

“How convenient.”

After wandering around, the two returned to the bottom of the black tower.

Bai Zhou looked at the monitoring station with corpses everywhere and was silent for a long time.

Finally, he turned his back and said calmly:

"Goodbye."

……

The direction was different. After bidding farewell to Bai Zhou, Li Luo took the cube and walked towards Oasis City.

The seal of the Black Tower had been completely lifted. Not long after Li Luo left, he happened to see the body of the hunter who escaped at the beginning.

At this time, he was leaning on a conspicuous large rock. He took out all the conspicuous items in his backpack and tied them to an erected iron pole next to the rock.

Dried blood stretched from his neck to the ground, and a sharp knife was held in his hand, covered with dirt.

is suicide.

Li Luo walked forward and looked at the pioneer silently.

The tattered white paper was held in his hand.

He wrapped the white paper tightly in a plastic capsule for collecting biological samples, and then fixed the white paper tightly to his hand with tape.

He kept this blank piece of paper very well.

"Run away."

……

"Do me a favor and dig a hole." Li Luo looked at Cube and asked.

Carefully keeping the hunter's nameplate, Li Luo bowed in front of his grave and walked towards the Oasis City without looking back...

Mo Ling hadn't walked far when she felt the temperature around her begin to drop sharply, the wind became violent, and flying dust kept coming.

"It's a sandstorm." Li Luo said.

This is a common phenomenon in disorderly sand dunes - sandstorms that are difficult to prevent.

The reason why humans have to look for various hard places to build monitoring stations on the second level of the abyss is also because of sandstorms.

Sandstorms on the second level of the abyss often have many unknown and strange phenomena.

Some hunters saw huge sand and gravel creatures after entering the sandstorm. They were like a combination of piles of sand, moving along the sandstorm and devouring everything in its path.

Even if these sand and gravel creatures can be eliminated, they will come back after a while.

Some researchers speculate that these combinations are not living things, but the entire sandstorm is a living thing. These strange-shaped combinations may just be some organs of the sandstorm.

That's why it exhibits biological characteristics, but will be reborn in time.

But that's just speculation.

There are also some hunters who suddenly changed their location after experiencing a sandstorm and came to some unknown ruins.

Many of the ruins on the second level of the abyss were discovered accidentally like this.

No one has figured out the transmission principle of Sandstorm.

Officials only advise hunters not to try to escape when encountering a sandstorm, because there is no way to escape. "When a sandstorm comes, try to keep your body as low as possible and bend down when walking to prevent being blown down or even involved in the extremely strong sandstorm."

"Observe the surroundings and find objects that can be used as shelter as quickly as possible, such as piles of rocks, large plants, ruins, etc., avoid the sandstorm on the leeward side, and be careful to bury them in sand and gravel."

“When encountering sand and gravel creatures, observe their route in advance and relocate in advance.”

"..."

Li Luo's electronic screen showed many ways to avoid sandstorms, which were the experiences left by his predecessors.

But when she looked around, she saw nothing. There was no solid object that could serve as shelter.

Then she looked at Cube.

Mo Ling also understood what she meant, and controlled the cube to land downward, hitting the direction in which the sand and gravel were blowing.

The surrounding temperature changed more and more obviously, and the sky gradually became darker. Li Luo looked into the distance with an increasingly solemn expression.

"coming soon."

The speed of the incoming sand and gravel was getting faster and faster, and the high-speed flying sand and gravel hit the metal wall, making a sharp "ta-da" sound.

Li Luo bent down and hid behind the square, took out some clothes, and wrapped his head tightly.

Unknowingly, the sandstorm had spread to the square.

Some long sounds came from the sandstorm, and it was hard to tell whether it was the sound of wind or the cry of beasts.

Those sounds became stranger and stranger, and as the sandstorm progressed, they began to become rhythmic, like singing.

The sound of the collision of gravel was mixed in, making the rhythm of the song stronger and stronger.

Accompanied by the sound of sand and gravel hitting the metal wall, Mo Ling felt like he was listening to an old song from an old video tape with unclear lyrics.

Tactful and weird.

The sound of the wind was like someone's whimpering, weeping and complaining.

"it's wired."

The visibility became very poor. Fortunately, Mo Ling's field of vision was not affected, and he could still see clearly what was going on in the sandstorm.

Li Luo had already hid behind his head, clinging to the cube.

Just as Mo Ling was listening to the strange singing, a swinging flake-like figure suddenly flashed through the scattered sandstorm.

what is that?

Mo Ling thought of the sand and gravel creatures in the records and immediately became alert.

He didn't know exactly what these gravel creatures looked like, but he knew they were very dangerous.

Sure enough, after a while, the flaky body slowly swam toward him.

Mo Ling looked at the complete appearance of this creature in shock.

That's a whale!

A strange sound that could not be distinguished from the sound of wind or whimpering was coming from its body, as if it was calling its companions.

In the distant sandstorm, there were echoes of the same sound.

How many are there?

The whale's body is dark, like damp sand, glued together in an incomprehensible way.

Mo Ling didn't see anything different in its body. It seemed to be completely made of sand.

The whale swam to the block. Mo Ling wanted to take action immediately, but found that it just looked at the block curiously, then came to the cactus on the side, then opened its mouth and took a small bite.

Then, it moved its mouth up again and sucked up the cactus juice.

This was completely inconsistent with the way whales eat, and Mo Ling was stunned.

After taking a few sips, the whale spit out a bit of sticky sand, wrapped the cactus's wound, as if to protect the cactus, and then slowly swam away.

"Are they just looking for water?"

A strange thought suddenly came to Mo Ling's mind.
