I'm trapped in a cube

"Death is painful. Even though the tortoise has a long life, it still has its time. The snake rides on the mist and turns into ashes..."

The man in red looked at the unrecognizable giant wolf and suddenly laughed.

"Did you see it? If it were not a turtle, there would be no time. If it were not a soaring snake, it would not be ashes... There is a way to escape the pain of death, and the obsession with lifespan can also be easily solved."

The red moon in the sky flickered, then dissipated in the storm, turning into bits of moonlight and falling into the red dance floor. The wolf's head swung like a snake, swallowing the red moonlight that was as bright as snow. The wolf No longer a wolf, he is freed from the pain of illness, old age, and death, and freed from obsessions.

Mo Ling looked at the swinging wolf head, and his heart trembled with the deafening music. He did not see any free creature breaking free, but instead felt endless terror.

"Is this how Hongguang City helps people resolve their obsessions?" he asked in a daze.

"Then what if?" The man in red looked like he had seen through it, and said in a calm tone: "Wouldn't this solve it?"

"If life is painful, don't give it up."

“If old age is painful, stop aging.”

“Diseases are painful, so we live with them.”

"Death is painful, just change to a body of eternal life..."

"Suffering is gone, desires are satisfied, and obsessions will naturally disappear."

The man in red pointed lightly to the dance floor below, smiled, and asked Mo Ling: "Otherwise, do you think there is any other solution?"

When asked this question, Mo Ling felt his head was empty and he didn't know how to answer.

It is true that this can solve the obsession, but the cost is a bit too terrible.

Li Luo probably wouldn't accept such a method either...

Seeing that Mo Ling didn't answer, the man in red also became interested.

"Did you come to Rainbow City to resolve your obsessions? Let me tell you what kind of obsessions you have... Is it birth, old age, illness and death? Or something else?"

Mo Ling looked at the expectant gaze of the man in red, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head: "I have no obsession."

"No obsession? Then why did you come to Rainbow City? Are you embarrassed to say it? Is it about reproduction?"

The man in red was guessing, but he went completely off track...

"Are you obsessed because you can't find a breeding partner? It's okay. I've seen this kind of thing too many times. It's the instinct of living things. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

As the man in red spoke, he pointed to the edge of the dance floor.

"See over there?"

Mo Ling looked in the direction he pointed and was stunned.

In the trembling music, two creatures that looked like pieces of waste paper stuck together tightly. You and I, the edges of the paper balls stretched into each other's bodies.

Immediately afterwards, with the ripples, the two waste paper balls were completely crumpled into a ball, bathed in the red light that shook like a fire, and started beating to the rhythm of the music...

Hazy light and shadow flashed by, and countless small paper balls rolled out from the crumpled waste paper.

Mo Ling was completely stunned and stared there for a long time.

"Did you see that?"

"I saw it..."

"The creature's race is the only one left, so it came to Rainbow City to fulfill its obsession." The man in red explained.

"What is its obsession?" Mo Ling asked blankly.

"Don't you know this? It's reproduction. It needs a reproduction partner, not only to satisfy its own desires, but also to continue its own race. This is its obsession."

Listening to the man in red's explanation, Mo Ling suddenly realized.

"Then how can Rainbow City find a breeding partner for it?" Mo Ling still didn't understand.

"You will know if you keep reading..."

The crazy rock music was still going on, and at the edge of the dance floor, the crumpled paper balls finally separated.

However, there is something wrong with one of them. Its body is slowly becoming blurry. First, the color becomes redder and redder, as if it merges with the red light. Then the body begins to dissipate and turns into a shining light. A point of light, and not long after, the paper ball turned into a ball of illusory light and shadow, shattering with the music.

The other ball of paper turned a blind eye to the disappearance of the breeding object, and seemed to have been used to it for a long time...

Seeing this scene, Mo Ling immediately understood:

The red ball of paper is the "reproduction object" created by Rainbow City for that creature!

"It's actually possible to create this, and actually reproduce it?"

Mo Ling quickly looked at the small paper balls and found that they had not disappeared. These offspring created by fictitious breeding objects could actually continue to exist.

Now, Mo Ling had a new understanding of the abilities of those red lights.

"Do you understand?" the man in red asked from the side.

"I understand." Mo Ling nodded.

He finally knew why so many creatures gathered in Rainbow City...

"You understand, why don't you go quickly?" The man in red pointed at the dance floor and said to Mo Ling.

"What to do?"

Mo Ling was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was still being misunderstood by the man in red, and quickly started to explain...

"I really don't have any obsessions."

Seeing that Mo Ling was still speaking righteously, the man in red finally believed it.

"Really not?"

"Not really."

"If you don't have any obsession, what are you doing in Rainbow City?"

"Can't you come to Hongguang City without obsession? Can't you come for tourism?" Mo Ling didn't want to expose Li Luo's affairs, so he made up an excuse.

"I didn't say no." The man in red nodded knowingly, and actually believed Mo Ling's obviously made-up reason.

"In this city, you can do whatever you want, whether you are traveling or solving obsessions, it doesn't matter, here is absolutely free..."

The music in the dance floor is still coming, and the red raindrops in the sky are getting bigger and bigger. In the interweaving of light and shadow, everything becomes hazy and dreamy. The jumping red light spots fall everywhere with the storms that rise from time to time in the dance floor, stirring up chaotic ripples.

The fire seems to be burning more and more, and the creatures below seem to be getting crazier...

But the man in red still looks calm, sitting on the shaking roof, staring at the bottom, as if thinking about something.

The resurrected snake wolf howled in the red light, and the sound blended into the beating rhythm. The waste paper ball brought a group of offspring, and the light spots in front slowly gathered, as if they were creating something again...

The music in the dance floor seemed to have reached its climax, and the light spots and the creatures below became more and more agitated.

They squeezed and pushed each other, and some weak creatures were directly trampled into a pool of mud. The light spots rushed up and ate up the meat on the ground.

However, death did not seem to alert the creatures below. Instead, they were stimulated to become more crazy and danced again in the beautiful music.
