I'm trapped in a cube

While Mo Ling was trapped in that cycle of fear...

The smell of corruption was getting worse and worse. Although the gray-green raindrops could not penetrate Xiao Zi's blockade, they made the air more and more smelly. Li Luo and Zhou Chao subconsciously covered their mouths and noses.

The strange corruption totem was still spitting maggots and dust, and it seemed that there was no intention to stop.

"Corruption should not have a body, why does it condense a totem and use maggots and dust to spread corruption?" Zhou Chao looked at the totem and asked in confusion.

He squatted down and poked the wriggling maggots with a wooden stick.

The maggots were poked to pieces by the wooden stick, and the gray-green dust burst out of their bodies. The dust fell on the ground and spread rapidly like mycelium.

Zhou Chao looked in the direction where the maggots were crawling, and then observed the surroundings again.

"The center is diverging... They are not targeting us, but fleeing from a certain location. There is something in that location that scares them."

"If the activated corruption targets us, the crawling of these maggots should all point to our direction, but it is not the case now. The thing they are hiding from... is there!"

Zhou Chao pointed to an empty space not far away and said that it was empty, and all the crawling tracks of the maggots were moving away from that place.

Li Luo listened to Zhou Chao's judgment and immediately understood everything. She immediately raised the holy sword and swung it there.

The golden torrent instantly swallowed countless maggots and submerged the empty space.

The space shook for a while, and many phantoms appeared in the dazzling golden light. The two of them opened their eyes wide instantly.

What Zhou Chao saw in the phantom was his dead companion.

And what Li Luo saw in the phantom was a man with a broken arm...

Both of them were stunned. The golden light seemed unable to completely destroy those phantoms. They were struggling to get out of the torrent.

At this moment, a strange edge appeared in the golden light.

Then, a huge cube boundary enveloped all the phantoms. With a flash of light, those phantoms disappeared without a trace, and even the light column had a gap.

Although the gap was quickly filled, the phantoms inside no longer existed.

Li Luo reacted quickly and looked at the block above his head.

And Mo Ling in the block, looking at the dissipated phantom in the block, also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, fear is not invisible."

Before Mo Ling fell into the fear cycle, he always thought that he could not deal with the invisible activated fear.

However, as he continued to teleport, those fear scenes began to go wrong.

He found that those characters and visions used to scare him would actually "drop frames"!

The "image quality" became more and more blurred, and the action also "stuttered", which showed that the activated fear had been affected and could no longer maintain the scene.

Mo Ling guessed that his teleportation must have stripped off some parts of the activated fear, which led to various defects in its fear structure.

"It's like removing a few tubes from the display screen. The picture will naturally become blurry. If too many tubes are removed, there will even be holes in the image."

In order to make up for these holes, the Activated Fear can only take money from one place to make up for another, which leads to "frame drops" and "stuttering".

"In other words, teleportation can cause damage to it."

In order to create intimidation, the invisible fear must be turned into a tangible scene, and these tangible scenes will be directly stripped away by Mo Ling.

Thinking of this, Mo Ling was no longer afraid of being trapped in fear.

He began to teleport recklessly, stripping away all those terrifying images.

Finally, the Activated Fear gave up and kicked Mo Ling out of the fear cycle.

As soon as he came out, Mo Ling saw the phantom in the light of the holy sword.

"Can't even maintain the complete form?"

He immediately gave the Activated Fear the final blow.

The moment the phantom was destroyed by Mo Ling, the maggots seemed to be frozen and stopped wriggling. The totem that was waving maggots and dust in the distance also suddenly stopped moving.

Then, the maggots on the ground began to spin around in confusion.

The stone pillar under the corrupt head suddenly broke, the surrounding dead wood withered, and the head fell to the ground.

The moment the head touched the ground, all the maggots seemed to have found their backbone and crawled towards the head. They gathered together and lifted the head, like a sedan chair, and gradually went away.

"They don't seem to have any hostility towards us." Li Luo looked at the corrupt head that was carried away and said with some surprise.

"In their eyes, humans are very weak "activated creatures". This forest is full of fatter prey. They won't waste time attacking us. Just now, it was just driven by the activated fear."

"Then why did the activated fear target us?" Li Luo asked.

Zhou Chao shook his head: "Maybe human fear is more delicious."

"Compared to these animated dead things, humans have richer experiences and more full emotions. The animated fear must be able to feel the difference. Maybe in its eyes, we are very suitable prey."

"The fear of those lower creatures is certainly not as delicious as human fear."

Listening to Zhou Chao's speculation, Li Luo was thoughtful.

"It seems that as the activated pollution deepens, these animated creatures will also begin to choose prey."

Zhou Chao nodded in agreement: "Of course, the higher the wisdom, the more picky the choice of prey. Wild beasts only need meat to eat and don't care about anything else, while humans need to consider smell, taste, and the combination of meat and vegetables..."

"The same is true for those animated creatures. When their wisdom becomes higher and higher, and when there is enough food, they will tend to choose more delicious and more suitable food, and no longer rush to live creatures madly."

As Zhou Chao spoke, he looked deeper into the woods, and his tone became more solemn.

"The wisdom of animated creatures is beyond imagination. Do you think we will encounter animated creatures that can talk, or even an already formed animated civilization if we go further in?"

Hearing Zhou Chao's question, Li Luo also became worried.

"Maybe. A civilization that is born in such an environment must be very violent. If there is such a civilization, it must be extremely dangerous."

At this point in the conversation, both of them were worried about the road ahead.

The shadow of activated fear and activated corruption has not faded yet, and there may be more terrible and more difficult to deal with animated creatures in the future.

In the endless forest, those strange animated creatures may be hidden in some unknown corner.

Li Luo was still staring at the depths of the forest when she suddenly heard the sound of the wind.

She looked up and saw that it was Xiao Zi who was chasing the cube.

After the activated corruption left, Xiao Zi seemed to realize that he no longer needed to maintain protection, so he began to attack the cube.

But Mo Ling had anticipated this and controlled the cube to escape quickly.

"I don't believe you can catch up with me this time." Mo Ling argued with this stupid hand rope.

Li Luo looked at the scene of chasing each other, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"Let's go." She turned around and shouted to Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao was stunned for a moment, patted his head, and regained his spirit.

"Yeah, what am I daydreaming about? It's time to go!"

"The road ahead is still long..."
