I'm trapped in a cube

The sun, indeed, did not move.

The scorching sun had been in the same position for a long time. Two hours ago, the sun had been there all the time. Zhou Chao remembered it clearly.

"Are you sure?" the captain asked seriously.

"Yes, I am sure. You can ask Xiao Li. He has been by my side all the time. He knows!"

"Xiao Li! Come here!" the captain shouted to the back of the team.

The team member who had been standing next to Zhou Chao hurried over.

"Zhou Chao was indeed looking at the sun just now. I happened to report the time two hours ago, and he also looked at the sun at that time." Xiao Li answered seriously.

"Really?" The captain looked at his deputy and asked, "What time is it now?"

"12:10, captain, we entered this forest at 8 o'clock."

"12:10?" The captain looked up and looked at the sun still hanging in the sky: "It's September now, right?"

"Yes, captain."

The captain nodded: "The position of the sun is wrong, Zhou Chao is right."

"Everyone be on alert!"

A deep shout made everyone in the investigation team nervous.

"Zhou Chao, give me your holy sword."

"Okay, captain." Zhou Chao quickly handed over the holy sword.

The captain drew out the holy sword without hesitation and slashed at the woods in front.

The beam of light of destruction shot out, directly splitting a path of annihilation in front, the earth was split in half, and the bare trees were burned to ashes.

But this is not the more critical point. After the beam of light dissipated, a strange colorful crack was wrapping inward along the crack split by the beam of light, just like the oil being split and healing.

"Did you see it?" the captain asked seriously.

"I saw it! It's light! There is a layer of light covering the normal scene!" Zhou Chao shouted as if he had just woken up from a dream.

Human vision is easily confused. As long as another layer of light is covered on the normal light, what the eyes see is not real.

As long as the light can be controlled, the scene seen by the human eye can be controlled.

"We have been blinded... It seems that something wants to trap us." The captain said clearly.

He raised the holy sword and swung it again.

Sure enough, the scene seen this time was exactly the same as before.

"A creature that can control light."

The captain frowned and looked at the sky: "This scorching sun that does not move, and this strange high temperature, are all created by it."

"It freezes the sunlight and allows the light at different times to overlap, so that the temperature of this forest becomes higher and higher."

Zhou Chao listened to the captain's words and nodded repeatedly.

For some reason, he felt that the captain was right.

"Then how should we escape from this cage of light?" The captain looked at everyone.

"Let's lower the temperature first." Xiao Li took out his relic, which was a hair dryer.

Xiao Li turned on the hair dryer, and a refreshing breeze covered the entire team.

However, white smoke began to rise from Xiao Li himself.

"I can't hold on for long, captain."

"Not for long." The captain looked at Xiao Li and said solemnly.

Zhou Chao looked at Xiao Li, who was emitting white smoke, and his heart suddenly hurt.

"What's going on?"

He quickly took out the water cup and handed it to Xiao Li, but Xiao Li waved his hand.

The captain called all the teammates together to discuss countermeasures.

"Just create darkness!" Zhou Chao said excitedly: "As long as it is a completely dark place, light will not affect it. We can hide in the dark and leave this forest."

For some reason, Zhou Chao suddenly had a suitable answer in his mind.

The captain nodded: "Not bad."

He looked at the bare trees around him: "The trees here have no leaves. This is probably the reason. The enemy is afraid of shadows and darkness, so they won't leave any shadows."

"Captain, I can create shadows. You just need to hide under the shadows I create." A team member shouted excitedly.

The captain looked at him for a few times and sighed.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

The team member took out a dough-like relic and took a big bite.

"I'll wrap you up now!" As he spoke, his body swelled up, twisting like dough, getting bigger and bigger, until it became a huge pancake.

The pancake still had the pattern on his clothes. His face was stretched into a weird big face. His mouth was talking, but no one could hear it clearly.

The pancake wrapped the entire team and blocked all the light.

"Forward." The captain's voice trembled a little.

In this way, the entire investigation team walked forward with the pancakes that their teammates had turned into.

Zhou Chao was right at the neck of the "human face pancake". The eyes of his teammate who had turned into a pancake were staring at him. His heart trembled and he wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat.

The cool wind blocked the high temperature outside. The teammate who had turned into a pancake above his head seemed to stop moving slowly, and the eyes that had been staring at Zhou Chao also slowly closed.

"Captain, he..." Zhou Chao said worriedly.

"Don't talk, keep moving forward." The captain's voice was a little hoarse.

Zhou Chao didn't ask any more questions, but just walked forward with the pancake that no longer moved.

Darkness covered everything. A faint light shone through the patterned cake surface. The outside world seemed to be slowly turning green, and some green light came in.

Zhou Chao could hear the panting of his teammates and the sound of footsteps on the soil. Being in the darkness, all of this became extremely obvious.

But there was another voice that kept hurting Zhou Chao's heart - Xiao Li's wailing.

He seemed to be about to collapse.

"Captain, it's turning green outside. Should we be able to go out?"

"No, this may be a trap. These lights may also be forged by the enemy. Keep going. Don't stop."

Zhou Chao's heart sank. He stopped talking and continued to walk forward with difficulty.

The cake on his head became heavier and heavier. Zhou Chao felt that his hands seemed to be wet.

"Is it sweat?"

Zhou Chao looked through the dim light, but he froze at the first glance.

It was not sweat, but melted blood...

The blood flowed down Zhou Chao's arm. The blood had a strange sticky feeling, as if it was mixed with flour, sticky.

Zhou Chao gritted his teeth and lowered his head, not daring to look again.

However, the blood became thinner and thinner, dripping all over his body, and the warm blood flowed down his head to the ground.

Now, even if he didn't look, the blood would appear in front of him.

Tick... Tick...

Zhou Chao closed his eyes, and the blood mixed with his tears flowed to the ground.

Xiao Li's wailing could no longer be heard, but the cool wind was still blowing.

Zhou Chao heard his own faint sobs.

He didn't know whether the warmth on his face was blood or tears.

"Captain..."

"Keep going, don't stop!"
