I'm trapped in a cube

Chapter 257 Moonlight Returns

"That's why I brought the fishmen to the island."

Bai Zhou sat on the long table in the lecture hall and said slowly.

He was obviously talking to Mo Ling, but his pupils lost focus, as if he were staring at the shadow under the desk.

"Then I said goodbye to the Chali Clan and set out to look for traces of the Fish-men Clan until I was caught and imprisoned by them."

"The first time they saw me, they didn't even recognize my race..."

Mo Ling looked at Bai Zhou, who was in a daze, and felt worried.

When Bai Zhou told his experience, his language was very confusing. Sometimes he would be startled and suddenly speak loudly. Sometimes he would mutter to himself and speak some incomprehensible words.

His expressions were also ever-changing, as if those scenes were reappearing in front of him.

Even now, Bai Zhou's body is still trembling slightly, obviously he has not yet escaped from his memories.

Not only that, Mo Ling found that he couldn't figure out the truth or falsehood of Bai Zhou's words. Those experiences were like pieces pieced together at random, with no basis at all.

Just like the little girl who appears from time to time.

Thinking of this, Mo Ling could no longer suppress her curiosity.

After confirming that Bai Zhou's condition had improved slightly, he asked cautiously: "Is that little girl an illusion caused by the relic?"

"Of course." Bai Zhou replied calmly: "My obsession was too strong, and the relic followed my thoughts and transformed into those virtual images. I know this."

"Those thoughts are actually mine, not a little girl's."

Bai Zhou seemed to know very well that those were all illusions, and the logic in his words was also very clear.

However, Mo Ling's attention was not focused on what Bai Zhou said.

Instead, he noticed his strange movements.

When Bai Zhou spoke, he always glanced to his side inadvertently, as if there was a short person sitting there.

When he moved, he always seemed to be avoiding that spot.

Moreover, even though the temperature was very low, Bai Zhou would always wipe the sweat from his forehead from time to time.

Looking at the empty seats next to Bai Zhou, Mo Ling asked seriously again: "Are you really sure there is no little girl?"

Hearing Mo Ling's question, Bai Zhou was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Of course not."

While answering Mo Ling's question, he turned his head slightly, looked to his side, and then moved slightly to the other side.

"All right."

Now it's even harder to tell the truth from the false.

Mo Ling originally thought that he could understand clearly from Bai Zhou what happened on the island.

Unexpectedly, after some mysteries were solved, new ones appeared.

Right now, the only person who can answer his question doesn't seem to be normal either.

Seeing Bai Zhou's confused look, Mo Ling didn't intend to continue questioning.

Just when Mo Ling was thinking about what to do next, Bai Zhou suddenly broke the silence: "Do you feel a little brighter?"

Got brighter?

Mo Ling quickly looked around and realized that, as Bai Zhou said, the cabin was much brighter. However, the fog was too thick and he didn't know where the light came from.

"Go outside and have a look."

After the two looked at each other, they quickly ran out of the house.

As soon as he arrived outside the house, Mo Ling was startled by the scene in front of him.

In the distance, there seemed to be a slightly bright circular light source hanging in the sky.

The light was so white that it was a bit scary. Even after passing through the thick fog, it was still very conspicuous, like a blurry eye staring at the entire island.

Not only that, the light source seemed to be rotating at high speed, and not long after, it seemed to be a little brighter.

"What is that?" Mo Ling asked in shock.

He looked at Bai Zhou and found that Bai Zhou also had a surprised expression.

Doesn't Bai Zhou know what it is?

Fortunately, he responded quickly.

"It's the moon." Bai Zhou looked at the light source and said blankly: "It's the moon of the fishmen! What are they doing?"

moon?

Mo Ling looked at the gradually brightening light source and suddenly thought of a familiar thing - the Moon Altar.

Due to his limited field of vision, Mo Ling had only seen the Moon Altar in the sky on Li Luo's electronic screen before, and that was magnified through equipment processing, which was very different from what he saw with his own eyes now.

After thinking about it carefully, Mo Ling finally confirmed that the thing hanging in the sky was the Moon Altar.

"Is this the Moon Altar from two thousand two hundred years ago?"

Why did it appear so suddenly?

Mo Ling couldn't understand why the fish people had built the first moon altar so quickly not long after they arrived on the island. How did they do it under the technical blockade of the fog?

At this time, Bai Zhou was more anxious than Mo Ling. Looking at the moon that was still shining, he could no longer hold back.

"I'm going to see what's going on. You leave this island first. The fog on this island is ineffective against you. This armor can also protect you from leaving." Bai Zhou solemnly instructed.

He patted Mo Ling on the shoulder: "Thank you."

"Wait!" Mo Ling called to Bai Zhou who was about to leave: "I'll go with you, there will be someone to take care of you."

Hearing Mo Ling's words, Bai Zhou shook his head, looked beside him and said, "I have someone with me, don't worry."

He stood there for a moment, then seemed to suddenly remember something, and began to rummage through the package. After a while, he found a piece of bark and patted it into Mo Ling's hand.

Then he said seriously to Mo Ling: "If you want to help me, there is something more important. Take this and wait for me outside the island. Remember to pay attention to safety. When I finish handling the matter, you can hand it over to me." Give me."

After saying that, Bai Zhou plunged into the mist without looking back.

Mo Ling held the bark in his hand. Before he could ask what it was, Bai Zhou had disappeared.

The light on the moon altar became more and more dazzling, and would sway suddenly from time to time. Mo Ling wanted to catch up with Bai Zhou, but after the moonlight flashed into his eyes several times, he no longer knew Where did Bai Zhou go?

"Where did he go? So fast."

Holding the bark, Mo Ling froze on the spot.

After realizing that Bai Zhou had indeed disappeared, Mo Ling raised the bark in front of him and looked at it carefully.

But the bark seemed to be ordinary, with nothing unusual about it, just like rubbish picked up randomly on the roadside.

"You can't lie to me."

Mo Ling realized later that he seemed to have been deceived.

There was nothing more important. Bai Zhou just wanted to prevent Mo Ling from following him, so he just found a reason to divert Mo Ling's attention.

After thinking about it clearly, Mo Ling was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up.

"Wouldn't it be better if I went to the Moon Altar myself and took a look?"

Anyway, the "moon" in the sky is there, can we still get lost?

Thinking of this, Mo Ling walked towards the moon altar...

But while walking, when Mo Ling raised his head again, he found that the moon altar had disappeared.

Looking back, I saw that Yuetan had reached the sky behind me for some reason.

"ah?"
