I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 685 Synchronous Crystallization

"How do I get to the fifth floor?"

Li Luo walked to a workbench in the square and asked.

It seemed that people here were too busy to pay attention to her.

The busy staff asked Li Luo to take out the electronic screen, sent her some instructions, and then went back to their own work.

After transferring the information, Li Luo walked aside and started checking it.

"The first step is to receive the synchronization crystal."

Synchronous crystallization?

Li Luo followed the instructions and came to a crystal collection point.

After checking her qualifications, the staff at the collection point directly gave her a small, crystal-clear crystal.

Li Luo held it and looked at it for a while. The crystal looked very beautiful. The peculiar thing was that different colors could be seen from different angles. She had never seen a similar crystal before and held it in the air and looked at it for a long time.

But Mo Ling in the cube could see clearly that these crystals were the products of compressed jelly. After releasing the energy, the remaining compressed crystals were transported to the crystal collection point through pipelines.

Of course, Mo Ling was also very curious about the function of this crystal.

While looking at the strange crystal, Li Luo walked to the second location: the anchor collection point.

"Do you already have an anchor?" asked the staff at the collection point.

"Yes." Li Luo took out the exquisite little box.

The moment he saw the small box, the staff member said directly: "You are going to Hongguang City, right? Then you don't need to pick it up."

Li Luo held the box, a little dazed.

“How did you see this?”

The staff member only took a glance, so how did he know that the anchor was heading to Hongguang City?
Confused, she put the box away and left.

The next step is the third step, which is also the most important step mentioned in the guide - combining the synchronized crystal and the anchor together.

This step can only be completed independently, because in the process of combination, itself will be "fitted" together with the product of combination and be regarded as the same object.

Li Luo walked to the workbench specially used for assembly and placed the beautiful crystal and small box on the table.

Then she carefully opened the exquisite little box.

She was also curious about what was in the box.

Li Luo was prepared to be shocked, but when she opened the box, she was still surprised by what was inside.

It was a diamond ring.

Li Luo immediately understood why the staff member could tell what this thing was at a glance.

"So this box is a diamond ring box..."

In an era when artificial diamonds have become extremely developed, Li Luo has not seen a diamond ring box for a long time. It is something he can only see when visiting a museum.

A few decades ago, diamond rings were often used as props when people proposed marriage. With the advent of the abyss, pragmatism reached its peak. Under the impact of artificial diamonds, diamond rings have become an antique handicraft, and no one uses diamonds as a proposal prop anymore.

Li Luo looked carefully at the diamond ring in the box and saw traces of time on it.

The gaps in the carving on the ring had turned a little black.

This antique diamond ring may have been carried by someone, and may have been regarded as a treasure by someone, but for some reason it has now ended up in the Pipeline Fortress and become an anchor to the Rainbow City.

"Why is the anchor to Hongguang City a diamond ring?" Li Luo thought about it for a while but still couldn't figure it out.

Now, she is going to personally combine the diamond ring and the synchronous crystal.

Following the instructions, she picked up the hammer on the workbench and carefully smashed the synchronous crystal into powder. Then she picked up some liquid prepared on the workbench and blended the powder into it.

After stirring evenly, Li Luo applied the liquid evenly on the diamond ring.

The strange thing is that the liquid that originally looked ordinary became sparkling after being blended into the powders. After being applied to the diamond ring, the surface of the diamond ring was also covered with a layer of shiny colorful film.

Li Luo looked at the shining diamond ring, and seemed to see many wonderful worlds in the light. She kept traveling and adventuring in those worlds, but she had no memory of these worlds at all.

After looking for a while, she came back to her senses from the colorful lights.

Take a deep breath, clean up the workbench, wait for a while, and the combination is completed.

After the liquid dried up, the colorful light on the diamond ring became more dazzling.

In order to prevent himself from getting lost in it again, Li Luo also put the diamond ring back into the box. After the composition was ready, the last step was to be taken.

As long as you bring that combination to the designated area, you can enter the Abyss.

Li Luo looked at the designated area curiously. It was a series of small compartments surrounded by pipes. There was nothing special inside.

She walked in curiously and chose a cubicle at random.

After entering the compartment, a crisp mechanical sound suddenly rang out, startling Li Luo.

"Please show your qualifications."

Li Luo took out the electronic screen, and the pipe on the side of the compartment circled over Li Luo's head and then retracted.

"Please make sure that everything you want to bring is within the compartment."

Hearing this, Li Luo looked at the block behind him and replied, "Sure."

The compartment was silent for a while, and then the voice came again:

“If you’re ready, put on your assembled anchor.”

Li Luo was a little slow to react when he heard the mechanical voice's request.

Wear the anchor? Should I wear that diamond ring?

After being stunned for a moment, Li Luo carefully took out the diamond ring box.

The diamond ring was still flashing colorful light, and Li Luo took it out of the diamond ring box.

"Are you ready?" She suddenly turned her head and asked Fang Cube.

The cube trembled and moved closer to Li Luo.

She looked at the diamond ring, as if she was thinking about which finger to wear it on.

She had already put the diamond ring to her fingertips, but Li Luo hesitated again. She suddenly had a strange feeling: she shouldn't wear this diamond ring.

Moreover, the size of the diamond ring did not seem to match any of her fingers. It was either too big or too small.

After thinking for a moment, Li Luo took out a rope from his luggage and put the colorful diamond ring on it.

"This should be fine..."

Li Luo slowly put the diamond ring around her neck.

After putting on the diamond ring, Li Luo actually felt a sense of comfort, and then he closed his eyes unconsciously.

The warm feeling surrounds me, just like being in my mother's arms.

The diamond ring seemed to carry a familiar aura, and Li Luo's memories kept surging, and she remembered the time when she was a child playing with her mother.

"Is this mom's diamond ring?"

Li Luo recalled the vague past and wanted to find traces of the diamond ring. However, as a young girl, she didn't care about her mother's fingers. The yellowed memories slowly faded away and she couldn't find the answer at all.

I can hardly even remember what my mother looked like, let alone the diamond ring.

"But why does it feel so familiar?"

Was it her fingers that touched me when she held me in her arms?
The mother gently patted the baby, and the diamond ring gently touched the soft skin, and the baby also remembered that special feeling...

"But how can a baby remember the feeling of a diamond ring? How can it recognize which diamond ring it is?"

Doubt and familiarity alternately appeared in Li Luo's mind.

Contradictions and coincidences constantly intertwine and overlap.

The synchronized tracks fit in with each other but are completely unrelated.

Li Luo kept jumping between the intersecting tracks, passing through the interconnected time and space, as if he saw his mother, and as if he saw himself in the cradle.

Those figures who are exactly the same as her are traveling between different worlds. They are all Li Luo, but they are different.

The invisible track connects things that have never touched each other, and the colorful light on the diamond ring flickers with the sparks of their collision.

The familiar nursery rhyme rang in Li Luo's ears again...

She started suddenly and opened her eyes.

There is endless darkness before my eyes.
