I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 804: Illusion
"What exactly is this?"

Looking at the glass fragments falling from between the claws, Han Qi said in confusion.

The glass fragments fell to the ground, leaving only some fine white dust stuck to his hair.

He patted it gently, but the white dust still stuck tightly.

"Ok?"

Realizing that something was wrong, Han Qi carefully cut off the dusty hair.

“Why is it so sticky?”

Mo Ling also came forward and looked at the gray hair.

The hairs stained with dust are like those covered with thick wall plaster and cannot be removed no matter what.

"Does glass dust also have this property?"

At this time, Mo Ling began to doubt again, wondering whether this was glass.

He and Han Qi looked at each other, both were silent for a while, and then said at the same time:
“This isn’t glass!”

Han Qi shook the hair, moved it close to his heart, and felt it carefully.

"It seems to be... some kind of sticky colloid."

After he said this, the ground covered with glass fragments suddenly trembled, and a "gurgling" sound came from the ground, as if something was wriggling underneath.

Mo Ling suddenly felt his feet soften. He looked over and discovered that the ground full of glass fragments was melting. The hard fragments quickly mixed together like heated butter, softening, sticking, and clinging...

After a while, the ground turned into sticky glue. Mo Ling wanted to move, but found that he was stuck tightly and could not move. His feet and tail were also stuck in the soft white glue.

"Is it really a gelatinous substance?"

With the two people's position as the center, the ground began to become sticky, and white quickly spread around, soon replacing the tiny pieces of glass.

Mo Ling and Han Qi also sank into the soft ground, stuck tightly by the sticky gelatinous substance.

Fortunately, after sinking to the knees, it did not continue to sink, and the glue could still provide a certain amount of support.

They were temporarily stabilized, but the two could not move forward.

Han Qi looked at his feet and then looked at Mo Ling.

"Are you okay?"

"fine."

As expected, it turned out that it was not glass but this strange glue. Han Qi himself was a little confused.

"What kind of area is this?" He looked at the glue under him in confusion and tried to struggle hard, but he couldn't pull his legs out. Not only that, as he struggled, he even started to sink deeper and deeper.

So he gave up struggling, picked up a ball of glue with his claws, and examined it carefully.

At the same time, Mo Ling was also studying the white glue.

Their appearance is really too weird. First it was sand, then it turned into glass, and finally it turned into this strange glue. Which one is real and which one is fake?

"Or is it all fake?"

Mo Ling was somewhat suspicious that everything he had encountered so far was an illusion.

The illusion zone was already taking effect, dragging them deeper into the illusion.

"Is this also an illusion?" he asked Han Qi who was standing beside him.

Han Qi did not answer, but kept looking at the glue on the claws. After a moment of silence, he finally answered Mo Ling: "This is not an illusion... The Illusion Zone can create any illusion, but it cannot create living things, because the Illusion Zone cannot simulate the behavior of living things."

Hearing Han Qi's words, Mo Ling was stunned: "Biological?"

"Yes, these things are living things." Han Qi put his claws in front of Mo Ling, and Mo Ling discovered that the sticky glue was wriggling slightly, crawling along Han Qi's claws towards his body.

"What is this?" Mo Ling asked in surprise.

"Slime mold, a very special kind of creature."

Han Qi introduced this slime mold to Mo Ling.

This is a very widely distributed creature, often found in some very desolate places. They eat everything and only need a very small amount of food to reproduce in a large group. They have very strong vitality.

There are many such creatures in the Eternal Night, and there is nothing special about them. The peculiar thing about the structure of slime mold is their behavior.

After growing to a certain size, the slime mold will begin to "stick" to the surrounding objects, transporting them to the same location and constructing an "aggregate" of unknown meaning.

The larger the size of the slime mold, the larger the aggregate it constructs.

No one knows what the function of this aggregate is. The slime mold neither uses it to live nor as a weapon. It just combines a bunch of messy things together in an irregular manner, and uses their strong viscosity to make the aggregate bigger and bigger.

Depending on the type of polymer, the bonded structures can have strange shapes and no regular pattern can be found.

Therefore, this type of slime mold is called "tectonic slime mold".

"We should also be regarded as polymers by these slime molds. They are probably going to transport us somewhere to make constructs..."

Han Qi said helplessly that he didn't dare to struggle anymore, otherwise he would sink deeper and deeper into the slime mold.

Looking at the endless mass of slime mold, Mo Ling's mind was full of questions.

"Why are there so many tectonic slime molds in the Fantasy Zone?"

"The Illusion Zone is using illusions to cover up these slime molds?"

“Why go out of your way to cover up these slime molds?”

Mo Ling actually has a way to break free from the slime mold. He just needs to use teleportation to cut the slime mold open. But even if he breaks free from the slime mold, he will have nowhere to land and will definitely be trapped again.

Moreover, in his current state, he didn’t know if he could fly.

He was also very curious about what these slime molds were trying to construct.

Such a large slime mold must have constructed something spectacular...

Just as he was thinking about it, the slime mold under him suddenly began to wriggle, sending Mo Ling and Han Qi away.

At this time, Mo Ling still had a question in his mind:
If the previous sand and glass land were illusions, and the slime mold was real, why didn't they fall directly into the slime mold, but walked on the sand and glass land for so long?

Could it be that the illusion zone does not just create an illusion, but another real environment?

Out of caution for the unknown, Mo Ling did not act rashly, but kept following Han Qi. But now it seems that Han Qi himself is also very confused.

"Illusion Zone, is it really just creating illusions?" Mo Ling asked Han Qi very seriously.

Han Qi paused and did not answer, but began to look at Mo Ling.

The heart above his head suddenly started beating nervously, and his blood vessels began to swing unnaturally, looking a little flustered.

"Stop talking, stop talking..."
