I'm Trapped in a Cube

Chapter 780 Pyramid

As Li Luo walked, she suddenly discovered something. She came to the corner of a pyramid and touched the bricks there.

Then, as she walked forward, she found another pyramid and touched the same position.

Touching the same brick, Li Luo suddenly said something that shocked Mo Ling:

"These pyramids are all the same."

She stood there for a while and shook her head again.

"No, it's not the same... It should be said that it is the same pyramid at different times."

"The first one is the oldest, and the further you go, the newer it is."

"Even the damaged position is the same..."

Li Luo touched the side of the brick, and there was a clearly visible scratch on it, as if it was cut by some sharp object during construction. Then she walked to a nearby pyramid and found the same position, the same brick, and the same scratch on this brick.

The same length, the same depth, and even the bend at the end is exactly the same.

Just because of the time, there is more dust in one scratch and less in the other.

Not only that, Li Luo also found other similarities.

It is easy to find specific defects in man-made buildings, and these defects become the key to determine whether these pyramids are the same.

"Not only are the defects the same, but the angles of deviation in some places are also the same, as well as the techniques of cutting and stacking the bricks, the height of the steps, the spacing of the stone pillars..."

"Completely the same."

Li Luo gave her own judgment. She turned her head and looked at the pyramids behind her with the night vision device that could only display a blurry picture.

She seemed to be walking along the passage of time, all the way forward to an unknown era, and those pyramids were anchor points for locating time one by one, using the state of each pyramid to determine the current time.

After looking at it for a while, she looked at the cube with a serious expression: "I think we can't reach the edge of the hole. This is not a normal space."

"When the law of time is distorted, the space will definitely be disordered. If we keep going inside, there may even be more weird things..."

Li Luo pointed to the deep darkness and said seriously.

Mo Ling didn't think Li Luo was worrying too much. In his vision, the surroundings were indeed becoming more and more weird.

The gravel gradually disappeared...

Not only that, Mo Ling also found that they were actually walking "downward".

Because there was no reference in the dark, Li Luo couldn't feel the slight slope, but Mo Ling could see clearly that the hole was going down and they were going deeper and deeper.

But although they were going deeper, the sand was getting less and less, and the ground gradually turned into stone bricks like the pyramid.

These stone bricks originally only covered the area around the pyramid, but now they have extended far outside the pyramid.

Mo Ling discovered that there would be a certain "radiation area" under the pyramids. These stone bricks would only be laid in the area, and now these areas are expanding and gradually connected.

There was only a thin layer of sand on the stone bricks, and the buried pyramids were completely revealed. If you go further, you may not see the sand, but only a dense group of pyramids.

"Would it be better to go in the other direction just now?"

An idea came to Mo Ling's mind. If you turn back now, can you still return to the original place?

Or, go to the other extreme?

...

"Walk this way."

After hesitating for a while, Li Luo decided to walk in another direction with the cube to try to find a way out.

But not long after, she was stopped by Mo Ling.

"What's wrong?" Li Luo asked in confusion.

After a while, an electronic screen was transmitted to the cube. Li Luo looked at it and frowned instantly.

"Always going down."

These five simple words made Li Luo no longer dare to act rashly.

"Can you explain it in detail?" Li Luo put the electronic screen back on the top of the block, wanting Mo Ling to explain it in detail.

But Mo Ling had some difficulty writing now, and he took a lot of effort to write the content more clearly.

"Always going down, any direction, all down."

Mo Ling found that no matter which direction Li Luo went, there would be a "downward slope". Just as Li Luo guessed, the space here was also disordered. Whether they were moving forward or backward, or circling in place, they were moving in the same direction.

"Just like time, it always goes 'backward'."

Space was also timed...

It was difficult for Mo Ling to explain this strange observation result. He could only hope that Li Luo could associate it by himself after seeing the content on the electronic screen.

Fortunately, Li Luo was very smart and the two of them had a good understanding. Li Luo pondered for a while and understood what Mo Ling meant.

She looked at the pyramids and gave a reasonable explanation:

"We are not walking in a real 'space' now..."

"This is a passage of time, but for some reason, time cannot be observed by us, so it is presented to us in the form of space, becoming a sand hole that keeps going down."

"No matter which direction we go, we are moving in a predetermined direction, just like the passage of time, but now we are moving towards the 'past'. It may be caused by the deviation of the time law in the time zone, and the normal direction is reversed."

"Normally, time has a slope, and objects in time will spontaneously roll from high points to low points, just like us now, we can only go to low places, not high places, so the direction will be fixed."

"In the passage of time, the objects we see are superimposed existences, just like those pyramids. These are their different states at different times. When we walk along the time axis, we will encounter pyramids at each time point, so they will look like the 'same one'."

Li Luo's explanation is more comprehensive than Mo Ling's, and it also reasonably explains various strange phenomena.

But this raises another question...

"How to get out?"

Neither of them expected that the bottom of the time zone would be such a strange place:

Spatialized time passage, or temporal one-way space.

When the time law deviates, this kind of "fusion area" with completely disordered rules will appear.

Previous experience was ineffective, and no one knew how to "escape time". Mo Ling and Li Luo certainly had never thought about this problem.

They now had no choice but to continue moving forward according to the established "slope" and "direction".
