I'm trapped in a cube

"Leader! Come and see the supplies we brought!"

Someone suddenly shouted in the team.

The middle-aged man called the leader immediately came to the place where they stored the supplies, but what he saw was a mess.

Because of the previous battle, they temporarily put all the supplies here.

"All the metal objects are rusted, pins, nails... these small objects have been repaired so that the shapes can't be seen clearly."

The man came to the side and picked up some tools. These tools were also rusty, and they looked like they had been placed in the open air for several years.

The leader looked for a while and sighed.

"Are all the supplies like this?"

"Almost, only some plastic ones can be used."

"Pack those and take them away. Leave these rusty ones here to ensure the safety of the personnel first."

"Okay, leader."

Everyone gathered around, looking at the piles of supplies that looked like garbage, and their hearts were dead.

"It is estimated that this mission cannot be completed..."

"Don't think about completing the mission, just save your life. This sky island is so strange that we may not be able to walk out alive."

The people present were talking about it, and Mo Ling also learned about the origin of this group of people from them.

They are the material transport team from the third floor.

This pile of materials was also synchronized with them from the third floor.

However, their mission is not limited to this...

At the end of a branch line of a new route, a synchronization device that has never been used was found. They need to test the safety of this new synchronization device to see if it can be used as a common passage to the fourth floor.

So, they came here with these materials.

As soon as they arrived at this sky island, they were hit hard before they had time to sort the materials. The air here is not suitable for human activities. It is full of pungent rust. The leader immediately asked everyone to wear gas masks.

However, one wave has not settled down and another wave has risen. They just got used to the strange smell and were attacked by the antlers. They can only temporarily abandon the materials and retreat while fighting.

As they fought, they found that the weapons they carried would rust quickly if exposed to the air. The skin of the antlers was thick, and their weapons could not withstand the consumption at all...

Later, they had to use the relics, which was the scene that Mo Ling had seen before.

After listening to their conversation, Mo Ling was full of doubts.

"Unused synchronization device?"

Since it was a team transporting supplies, why did they try the synchronization channel of the abyss instead of using the official synchronization device with a fixed landing point?

If the landing point is not even certain, how can we ensure that the supplies can be delivered in time?

Mo Ling was full of doubts, but soon got the answer in those few words.

"I heard that humans can now make synchronization devices, and even specify the landing point. Why do we still have to use the synchronization channel of the abyss?"

"It always takes a while to test new things. It is said that the success rate of those man-made synchronization devices is not high. Sometimes people will even synchronize into the stone. Do you dare to try it? Anyway, I don't dare..."

Listening to the conversation of everyone, Mo Ling seemed to understand something.

"New things?"

From Zhou Chao's introduction, those artificial synchronization devices are not new things, but fully mature means. No one chooses natural channels anymore, so Li Luo, who came to the fourth floor through natural channels, has become an outlier.

But in these people's mouths, artificial synchronization devices are still "new things"?

If Zhou Chao or this group of people are not lying, there is only one possibility:

"This group of people are not modern people."

There is a faint brown-red dust floating in the air. This circular area seems to isolate everything. A subtle buzzing sound echoes in this area, and even time has deviated.

"Did they come from the past to the present, or is this just a projection of some history? Or did I cross the boundary of time and come to the past?"

Mo Ling looked at this group of people and became worried.

Things were not figured out, but became more and more complicated. He originally just wanted to figure out the source of those invisible attacks, but fell into a new mystery.

"Where is this place?"

The somewhat dim sunlight shines on the ground. Mo Ling looks at this light and shadow that is completely different from the outside of the area, and his thoughts are a little trance.

Weapon attacks, claw marks, footprints...

The battle just now overlapped with those invisible attacks in an instant:

The rusty saber chopped hard and cut off the branches of the tree.

The claws of the antlers crushed the tree.

The sturdy body stepped on the ground, with varying depths, outlining invisible footprints...

"The past is interfering with the future?"

Those are not invisible attacks! But attacks from the past!

Mo Ling immediately understood everything. This circular area is like a filter covering the reality, covering up all the past, but these histories have been interfering with the future.

The events that happened in the past turned into invisible attacks, destroying things in the future.

The smell of rust is also lingering, spreading to the air of the future.

"But what is the cause of this strange phenomenon?"

Is it some kind of activated object?

Activation time?

There are countless possibilities in Mo Ling's mind, but he can't confirm it at present.

After realizing that this might be a certain period of history, Mo Ling felt a barrier around him, separating the cube from the brown-red light and shadow.

Mo Ling suddenly felt a sense of unreality, as if history was excluding him as an uninvited guest.

"Is this some kind of psychological effect?" Mo Ling's heart became more and more anxious, and the sense of unreality was becoming more and more serious.

So, Mo Ling planned to return to the outside of the area first, tell Li Luo about his discovery, and then make a long-term plan.

Soon, he hurriedly retreated to the edge.

At this time, the sense of unreality in his heart also reached its peak.

Mo Ling felt that he no longer belonged to this world, as if he had come outside the filter of this world. Everything under the filter became something that happened on another plane, and he could only watch this period of history repeat itself through the filter forever.

He had nothing to do with this period of history, just a passerby who had never existed.

The moment he reached the edge, Mo Ling stopped.

He changed direction and flew into the sky. Driven by the sense of unreality, he wanted to see if the air boundary of this circular area existed.

Mo Ling controlled the cube to fly upwards, but he still didn't feel the boundary.

"No boundary?"

This area is like a pillar that reaches the sky, with only edge restrictions, but no height restrictions.

It's like a beam of light that shines directly from the distant sky to the earth.

The movement of the circular area is just the searchlight changing direction.

Mo Ling's vision is limited, and he can't see the searchlight.

But he knows -

There must be something shining on this empty island.
