I'm trapped in a cube

"What are those official personnel outside doing? The Black Tower has not contacted the outside world for so long, and there is no response at all?"

"A bunch of losers who only eat and don't work."

In the Black Tower Monitoring Station, they lived as usual, but with the distortion of language, they found that some of their words had powerful power.

"A power similar to the spirit of speech." Bai Zhou said.

He had been watching the distortion happen silently, because he was just a fishman.

Ever since the distortion began to spread, he no longer had a common language with the people around him.

Bai Zhou stayed at his home and watched the situation become more serious.

After discovering that power, no one mentioned the previous debate about the twisted object, as if it had never happened.

The black pointer that tracked Li Luo before was made of that kind of power.

"Hieroglyphics?" Hearing this, Li Luo asked suddenly.

"It's very similar. They both seem to be the embodiment of the power of language." Bai Zhou nodded in agreement.

"But I didn't see any hieroglyphic runes on them. They needed to shout that word to use that kind of power, so I said it was like a word spirit."

Bai Zhou continued to talk.

Those who gained power seemed to use this power to find a way out of the Black Tower, but they found that the pointer pointed to the heights of the Black Tower.

Then they walked up and when they came back, they had put on these robes.

"Only a small number of people came back. After they came back, they were very hostile to me and seemed to want to catch me, so I hid." Bai Zhou said.

"What's at the top of the black tower?" Li Luo asked in confusion.

"I don't know. I haven't been there since the distortion occurred. There are people in robes guarding those intersections. I don't know what happened up there."

After hearing this, Mo Ling basically understood what happened in the monitoring station.

It seems that the distortion is more serious than imagined.

"I don't know why those hunters became like that." Mo Ling had a bad feeling in his heart.

The origin of the distortion is also high in the black tower, and the way out pointed by those black pointers is also high. It seems that a trip must be made.

Bai Zhou put his electronic screen away and said to Li Luo: "Stay away first, it's not safe here."

After leading the two of them through the winding holes, Bai Zhou walked to an open space where several research equipment and some living supplies were placed, which was very simple.

It looked like where he had been living.

"Would you like some fish? My grilled fish is very good." He came to a small pond nearby, which contained many strange-looking fish.

Li Luo declined his invitation.

"Do you know the way to the top? Or is there a map of the holes?" she asked eagerly.

"Replenish your strength and let's go together. Before you come, I plan to go up there and have a look." He looked at Li Luo and said seriously.

This was unexpected.

Bai Zhou walked to the pile of research equipment, looked at them nostalgically, and explained: "I have to fulfill an agreement."

Agreement?

"What agreement?" Li Luo blurted out.

Bai Zhou walked to a dilapidated display screen and took a few photos before the blurred screen slowly disappeared.

He took an old storage device from the side, plugged it in, and clicked on one of the video files.

"Please keep what you see next in mind, and don't have any doubts during the process."

Bai Zhou suddenly looked at Li Luo seriously, and after she nodded, he clicked play.

That's a cartoon.

Under the flashing screen display from time to time, the animation looks very weird.

And the production is very shoddy, like a rush job.

The cohesion is also very poor. The painting style is like a child's random doodles, with various brushstrokes used indiscriminately.

The animation begins with a tall black tower.

The camera zoomed in and through countless holes, a team was returning from the heights of the black tower and stood in front of the sentry for inspection.

Here’s the twisted origin story from before!

This is the hunter team.

Sure enough, the next development is exactly the same as what Bai Zhou told before, but the animation is aimed at the development of the phenomenon of language distortion.

noun: verb: adjective……

Grammar, tone, tone…

This animation vividly shows the sequence of language distortion, and also introduces this strange phenomenon in detail through the exaggerated expressions of different characters.

The poor animation makes the story even more bizarre.

Moreover, there are no sounds or words in this animation, and various hieroglyphs and symbols are used to express those words.

The very obvious one.

If you ignore the cult-like painting style, this animation is as simple as being for toddlers who can’t read.

Soon, a character with the power of speech spirit appeared in the animation, and the animation gave a detailed introduction to this character.

Simple patterns flew out of this character's mouth and transformed into various things.

Swords, guns, swords and halberds, wind, rain, thunder and lightning...

The character also made a cut on his wrist, and blood spurted out.

Immediately afterwards, he spit out a round-headed cross from his mouth, and the wound healed quickly.

The blood also flowed back into the wound strangely, and the animation also painted a flickering golden light around the character, showing that the character had fully recovered.

Not only that, as the number of words increased, the animated character's body became more and more powerful and perfect, and a golden light similar to divinity appeared in his eyes.

Even though the animation is very rough, this exaggeration highlights the changing characteristics of the characters.

Just when the character was getting more and more perfect, the animation came to an abrupt end.

The screen returned to its messy screen.

"finished?"

Li Luo looked at Bai Zhou and found that he put his fingers in front of his lips and shook his head.

"Shhh."

This went on for a long time, and the picture under the flower screen was completely dark.

After a while, new content appeared on the screen again.

It was a man in a white coat.

He didn't speak, just silently put the camera in place, and then lay on the operating table in front of the camera.

A familiar figure walked over from the side.

It was Bai Zhou wearing a diving helmet.

Bai Zhou walked up to the camera, straightened his white coat, and then began to introduce himself. A voice like someone speaking underwater came from next to the old display screen.

This is also the first sound made in this video.

"Hello everyone, I am Bai Zhou, an intern at Black Tower Hospital."

"Next, I will perform an autopsy on my colleague, the creator of the animation and the discoverer of distortion, Dr. Li of Black Tower Hospital."

"It was his own intention to study this unknown distortion."

He looked at Dr. Li on the operating table. Dr. Li raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture.

"First of all, I will explain again the content of the previous animation."

…

"Okay, the explanation is over, now let's start the dissection."

"First the hands."

The sharp blade scratched the skin.

Blood spurted out.
