Chapter 54: The Approaching Truth?

"Don't tell me, this is really a dreamland......"

Mo Chen muttered in a low voice, took out the Rubik's Cube and tossed it lightly in his hand, while squinting his eyes slightly.

A terrible, absurd thought popped into his mind without any reason or warning.

At least for this moment, when he looked at the silvery smooth surface of this thing, he almost felt that this thing was transparent, and that it contained countless magical worlds that were like nothing.

It was as if there were many images in my mind, some of them strange planets with huge stone towers, others planets with towering mountains and no signs of life, and even farther away from that space, only a stirring blur of darkness......

There seems to be some kind of consciousness and will.

“……”

“……”

After a long time, Mo Chen sighed and looked away, stopping the divergence of meaningless imagination. Because no matter how you look at this thing, it doesn't look like some shiny home remedia octahedron!

Although only the appearance does not match, but the description is very similar -

"A window into all time and space"

"You can show other worlds"

In a sense, this really seems to be a bit of a coincidence, right? The cube undoubtedly has such an ability.

And the night demon that appeared before, if it really appeared because of Mo Chen's own subconscious impression, then it should also embody the corresponding shining home remedies trioctahedron together, right?

However, in fact, there is no at all, which is also a very important doubt, but Mo Chen didn't notice it before.

After all, at that time, all his thoughts were on how to spread the scale of his own existence and how to regulate the balance of that fragile space...... Even if there is still extra energy and thoughts, it is mainly focused on sensing the scale of the development of the virus in the outside world.

As for other things, as long as they are not particularly obvious or particularly concerning, they are often ignored by him at that time.

Even now, if it weren't for the situation he cared about, Mo Chen might not have noticed some strange details all the time.

"Encountering a glimmer of light will run away, and a glare of light will expel it...... Then you need to summon again...... I remember that it seemed that the light could suppress the activation of the sparkling cubic octahedron, and if it was placed in a lightless place, it would summon the Daredevil......"

After pondering for a while, Mo Chen remembered some things he knew, and he felt that if he wanted to confirm whether the cube in his hand was the same thing, it was pointless to just look at the appearance.

The shape can be changed casually, for example, if you look like a hair dryer, it's actually a razor......

Therefore, on the premise of not changing the essence and not affecting the effect itself, it is just a matter of simply changing the appearance, how can there be any technical content at all?

Anyway, the change in appearance is meaningless, as long as the essence can be determined, right?

Besides, Mo Chen recalled that he had never really tried to put the Rubik's Cube in an absolutely dark and lightless environment, not once.

It shouldn't be counted in the inventory, it's another space entirely, so it's not much different from sealing it away.

Therefore, if you start from this aspect, you can see if there will be any abnormal changes in the cube in an environment that is completely blocked from light......

In this way, it is natural to be able to determine its essence and see if it is something famous.

Of course, if you can't successfully summon the Daredevil, then it doesn't necessarily mean that it isn't.

But if it can be summoned, then it must be that the real hammer has not run.

"Anyway, you don't need money, just try it......"

Mo Chen didn't hesitate much, and he didn't see any movement from him, but his eyes were chaotic.

The dim and dim light around him instantly turned completely black, turning into a pitch black that could not be reached.

The distortion of the world seems to have only changed to a different state, and in the depths of the thick darkness, it seems that something so greedy that even the light will swallow it up is wriggling.

Although this space is a land of dreams, and there is a huge gap between the physical rules and the material world that truly belongs to "reality", the phenomenon of "light will travel in a straight line" is basically the same.

Only now, this phenomenon has been modified and distorted on a local scale, and all the light has been isolated from a certain area.

If one looks from the outside, they will see that there is a "black hole" in the field of vision, as if the tangible darkness is like smoke, surging with light that swallows everything.

The darkness can only be confirmed by the presence of the borders of the outline and the contrast with the other background colors.

No one knows what's going on in that absolute blackness.

Mo Chen was in the darkness that shrouded him, waiting very patiently, and he was keenly aware that when he modified the propagation of light within a certain range nearby, the cube in his hand also responded immediately.

To be precise, there is some vague and incomprehensible power that permeates it, and there is a hint of elusive chaos.

This made him can't help but raise his eyebrows, and his expression became quite subtle, as if he was a little entangled and a little remnant, but it was impossible for anyone else to see it at this time......

As for why it is tangled? Naturally, it's because - actually really reacted? That's a bit of a joke, isn't it?

He sensed that some formless, strange being was slowly approaching him in the depths of the thick darkness, but not somewhere around him.

It's something that isn't in the same space, but that looks at him through the cube, something that follows him all the time in a way that doesn't feel like physical sight.

In the depths of darkness, something was stirring.

Is it really coming out? Something that cannot exist in the Light? Mo Chen didn't have any sense of panic, his reason would not be easily broken because of this kind of thing.

He just stared with interest at the darkness in front of him that he wanted to give up, waiting for that thing to come to him.

Mo Chen's visual form does not rely on light, and light will expel the night demon, so he does not plan to let the darkness around him dissipate. And he didn't feel scared or scared, or even how indescribable what came next.

He had only one attitude that he took for granted, and was not affected by the chaos in the slightest.

Even the strength of his whole body is gathering momentum, waiting for orders, without any problems, he is preparing to deal with the possible conflict accident that may occur next, ready to burst out of the night demon's head with a blow!

If that thing dares to pounce on it!

Merely...... After Mo Chen made these preparations, the feeling that something was staring at him in a way that was not like a physical gaze suddenly disappeared.

Mo Chen was slightly stunned, what's going on? It's like a gangster with bad intentions staring at him, and when he was about to commit a crime, he suddenly turned around and walked away without warning?

Could it be that the other party found out that he had picked up the brick and was waiting for it to come?

"Wait, this is...... Shataq birds? ”

After a while, as if the tangible darkness had dissipated, Mo Chen narrowed his eyes and stared at the huge creature that appeared in front of him.

It was a creature that resembled a bird's appearance, but its head resembled that of a horse. Its wings resemble those of a bat, its body larger than that of an elephant is covered with scales, its skin feels dirty, and its two claws look powerful.

In response to Mo Chen's question, it raised its head and shouted, and the sound was as harsh as scraping glass.

"Are you taking me somewhere?"

Mo Chen hesitated slightly, but after looking down at the Rubik's Cube in his hand, strong curiosity still prevailed.

He desperately wanted to know the secret behind this thing that he couldn't live without, but which he was secretly afraid of and could not trust.

Whether you can understand it or not, whether you can accept it or not, these are still secondary.

And if you want him to understand and accept, you have to let him know what is going on first, right?

……

……

The other side of the world.

The Siberian wilderness, a lost city beneath a polar glacier.

The construction work in full swing has finally come to an end, not only meeting but even exceeding the target, and the steampunk-style city has been revitalized after hundreds of years.

The neat and spacious streets are lined with tracks, and the empty rails build a complete transportation system around the space above the city......

Whale oil pipelines bring new power to every area, to every building......

Watchtowers have risen from the ground, monitoring the area, with the Wall of Light, the Arc Tower and other equipment guarding the main roads and important areas, and the evil machines with the heads of humanoid birds can be seen everywhere to patrol the roads day and night......

For those skilled immigrants who have been tricked into being cheated, this is a very incomprehensible steampunk style black technology city beyond their previous worldview.

But after slowly accepting its strangeness and weirdness, they found that relying on the application and promotion of this strange whale oil technology, they could live comfortably under this harsh frozen soil.

In particular, many dangerous jobs, or work that require harsh environments, are basically replaced by production clockwork machines, and they are usually responsible for some technical work and some less heavy manual labor.

Therefore, these people naturally quickly accept the reality, life is like that, and if you can't resist, you can only enjoy it.

Not to mention the indigenous people, the power of faith and tradition is very strong.

Moreover, they have always lived a very difficult life, and their living conditions have never been rich, and they have never had any sense of security...... The current change is like ascending to heaven in one step.

How can there be any dissatisfaction with this status quo.

"It's finally time to take a breath......"

Located outside the Grand Temple, the core and grandest of the city's center.

Standing on the marble terrace with its strange urn altar and carved balustrades, Miss Crawford couldn't help but feel the feeling of feeling when she looked at the ancient city that had begun to function and was full of vitality and vitality.

The change is so rapid that it changes day by day, and often before she is familiar with the previous appearance, the city has already entered the next stage of the same unfamiliar......

- This made her a little confused.

However, as of today, the shape of the city has basically been fixed, and all kinds of facilities and systems have been completed and are operational, and there will be no more major projects to change the face in the short term.

Now Miss Crawford had come to say goodbye to someone, after all, the matter was over.

And the other party has always been in the Great Temple, basically never came out, and has not helped much...... But it's a totem-like existence in itself, and if he really comes out, it will be a big problem.

There were no guards outside the temple, neither the clockwork machines, nor the people, as if it would be blasphemous to be near here.

Miss Crawford didn't care so much, and walked in as usual.

However, this time, it was also empty, there was nothing, and the person was naturally not here.

"Is it out? Why don't you say it? The girl grumbled, but her gaze paused as she swept over the walls painted with strange patterns.

If the other party is not there, can I take advantage of this time to figure out something that I have been struggling with......

She couldn't help but look at the altar at the end of the high platform in front of her, where an irregular prismatic crystal was enshrined, emitting a faint seductive light.

Divine Source!
