I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 174 Image of the Past

"We sent people to the island to see it. That strange fog is what makes you fall into the afterimage of history." Officials explained.

"But there is nothing abnormal about my body?" Shen Ping was a little confused.

The official shook his head: "That kind of fog only creates a virtual image through the refraction of light. It certainly has no effect on your body. However, we are still studying why it records history."

After hearing the explanation, Shen Ping nodded.

Then the officials asked him a lot of questions, including how he felt in the fog...

"We have also tested this cup and everything is normal. You can take it back and use it yourself." The official pushed the bronze cup over.

After Shen Ping confirmed it, he took the cup back. He didn't take it for nothing.

"After putting medicines inside, many identical medicines will be copied, but they can only be medicines. Chinese and Western medicines can be used. The judgment is relatively loose. Water, sugar, and salt are all counted. You can develop them again."

Officials even took out a test report and handed it to Shen Ping.

"medicine?"

"The blue olives are so similar to the Trevi Fountain." Mo Ling suddenly had such a strange idea.

However, while thinking about the origin cells, Mo Ling also realized that the realization of these "wish" often comes with a terrible price. Anyway, those who made wishes through the origin cells were miserably cheated.

Both can realize "wish" by creating relics. Maybe there are many such wish-making relics or creatures in the abyss.

In the end, the fog on the island was also named mirage. It can reproduce virtual images in history, but it will not have any impact on people.

It's amazing to recreate the shadow of history and get a glimpse of the creatures that once existed.

Only Shen Ping was left stunned in place...

It turns out that the reason why Shen Ping went to the abyss, worked so hard, and was burdened with various loans was because his sister had a rare disease and needed to take a particularly expensive medicine.

……

But his family conditions are too poor, so he can only try his luck in the abyss to see if he can make a fortune...

The record ended abruptly, and there was no detail about Shen Ping.

"The Origin Cell should also be counted as one."

"It turns out this is a mirage." Mo Ling sighed.

"Mr. Shen Ping, don't try to figure this out. This is a historical necessity. Make good use of your relics."

After saying a vague admonition, the official said goodbye again, opened the door and left.

"Yes, thank you for your cooperation. I have other things to do, so I'll leave first." After saying goodbye, the official picked up the box and prepared to leave.

Unless history is communicated in some way.

This is the process of discovering mirage.

Shen Ping's hand holding the bronze cup trembled a little, and he asked blankly: "How does it know that I need medicine?"

"Wait!" Shen Ping quickly called him.

After listening to Shen Ping's explanation, the officials sighed.

However, Shen Ping's experience was too strange. He was able to communicate with the past through phantoms, and even obtained a relic as a result.

Li Luo also breathed a sigh of relief after reading the record of mirage.

Mirage will only reproduce the virtual image of history and will not have any actual impact on people. It is essentially a special fog phenomenon.

Maybe you can also use mirage to learn about what happened here.

The rainbow light around him became more and more solid, and continued to spread, beginning to cover the surrounding environment.

The sound of shells knocking became more and more frequent, and the sound emitted from the condensed rainbow light also became very loud, gradually overpowering the impact of the water flow.

Not only that, one after another figures began to appear from the condensed rainbow light. When they slowly solidified, everyone discovered that these figures were exactly human beings.

But in front of them, there was a creature with a vague shape. Countless rainbow lights tried to reproduce its appearance, but they could not succeed no matter how hard they tried. The impact of the water flow was very unstable, and the body of the creature kept flickering.

The sound of heavy shell knocking came from the creature, and the knocking speed became faster and faster.

These originally intermittent sounds kept accelerating, and actually produced some kind of tone change.

In the end, it even became a sentence:

"Save me~"

help me? Is this strange creature actually asking for help?

Because the speed of the water flow fluctuates quickly and slowly, and the mirage is extremely unstable, the movements of these shell people seem to be accelerating, and the sound of shell knocking comes from them, which is also accelerated.

The most shocking thing is that humans can actually understand these accelerated sounds!

It turns out that the language of the shell people is not an independent language. It is just because they speak too slowly and even break down into percussive sounds with different tones that humans cannot distinguish them.

Hearing the accelerated shell language, Lao Xu was stunned on the spot and kept sighing: "So that's it, that's it!"

This shell language, which has taken countless researchers in Oasis City to decipher, is actually so simple!

The rainbow light formed a series of accelerated and blurred shell figures. They were constantly trembling, answering the huge creature's cry for help.

"God, what's wrong with you?"

Is this invisible creature their god?

The shell god seemed very weak and said slowly: "I'm trapped, save me, save me."

Hearing God's almost desperate voice, the Shell people panicked: "God, how can I save you?"

Everyone stared closely at the virtual images around them, but at this time, the rainbow light suddenly blurred and became extremely chaotic.

"The mirage here is very unstable." Lao Xu said helplessly.

When those dancing rainbow lights stabilized again, the scene had changed. The blurry and twisted figure of the god disappeared, leaving only a group of anxious shell people.

"Let's go and secure the outsiders!" A shell man who looked like a leader shouted to his companions.

The virtual image blurred again, and when it stabilized again, the group of shell people had fled back to the cemetery.

"The outsiders are too strong for us to fix. The time is coming and we have to tell the next generation."

"agree."

"agree……"

These shell people all agreed, so some thick liquid began to appear in the shell, decomposing itself, and the remaining shells fell to the ground.

After that, there was a long period of darkness.

Until one day, an earthquake occurred in the underground waterway, and the location of the cemetery changed, seeming to be very close to the ground.

A ray of light pierced the rock crack and shot into the ground.

The sun shines on the shells, and soon, some small shell people slowly grow out of these shells. They seem to be the newborns of the shell people. They are ignorant and hang out in the cemetery after they are born.

It seems that these little shell people have no intelligence. They only eat small creatures washed down by the water flow, and then gnaw at the moss, like unconscious beasts.

Their bodies seemed to grow very quickly, reaching their mature form within a few minutes, but their IQs seemed to have not increased at all and remained unclear.

Until a mist rose from the shell fragments illuminated by the sun, and then a rainbow light appeared, slowly beginning to reproduce what happened before.

The second-generation shell people stood in front of the mirage and watched everything silently.

Extremely serious.

Unfortunately, the words about God here are even vaguer, and only the records belonging to the previous generation of shell people are clearer.

The newly born shell man was immersed in the virtual image.

When the virtual image of history ended, a second-generation shell man turned his head and said to his companions:

"Let's go and secure the outsiders!"
