I'm trapped in a cube

"What's wrong?" Li Luo asked when he saw something was wrong with Lao Xu's state.

Isn't this exactly what he wants?

Lao Xu shook his head: "It's nothing. I thought of some things. When people get old, they always think a lot."

He sighed and stood up.

"Everything is over. People outside should have discovered the dome now. After they destroy the dome, we can go out, but it will probably take some time."

Lao Xu looked at the thick shell wall and said helplessly: "To prevent accidents, it was made too hard just now. Let's wait a moment."

He seemed a little tired and sat down on the guardrail beside him.

Li Xiangyi walked to the pool, looked at the tight shells, and asked with some fear: "We will not be arrested for destroying the fountain, right?"

Lao Xu waved his hands relaxedly: "This has nothing to do with us, it was all done by the shell people."

"The corpses of these shell people are the key point. You can just blame them all on the shell people when the time comes." He said lightly.

"We just followed the shell people and ran out of the underground sewer, but we were trapped in the square again, weren't we?" Lao Xu winked at Li Xiangyi.

Li Xiangyi instantly understood what he meant and nodded repeatedly.

Not long after, the broken shells in the fountain were illuminated by Li Xiangyi's light, and another mist began to rise.

Because the dome was completely sealed, the mist spread instantly.

It looks like those broken shells are starting to create mirages again.

The sunlight created by Li Xiang's bare clothes and the moist water vapor in the pool once again met the conditions for the generation of mirage.

"Do you want to take back the light belt?" Li Xiangyi asked quickly when he saw that the mirage began to spread again.

"It's okay, just keep it. It's all an illusion anyway." Lao Xu said lightly.

"All right."

Rainbow light appeared around again, and then there were familiar changes, and some figures began to flash in the dome.

When these figures slowly solidified, Lao Xu's eyes widened in an instant, and he stood up from the guardrail.

"What happened?" Li Xiangyi asked quickly when he saw Lao Xu's startled look.

Lao Xu pointed at one of the shadows and said in surprise: "That's the captain!"

"team leader?"

"Yes, the captain of our investigation team."

He pointed to other figures and began to name them.

"Medical Soldier Little King."

"Lao Lin, he has rich experience in surviving in the wild."

"Chef Guo Xiaomei is very good at cooking, but it's a pity that she later went to the Black Tower."

"..."

Lao Xu counted these people out one by one.

"That was me. I was really stunned at that time." His face was full of nostalgia and he pointed at a young man who was looking blankly.

"Is this a virtual image of the investigation team?" Li Luo asked in surprise.

Lao Xu nodded: "Yes, they should all be members of the investigation team, I just don't know when this is."

After a while, as the virtual image continued to solidify, some sounds began to be heard.

The dull young man suddenly looked towards the sky and shouted: "In the sky!"

The team members on the side quickly shined their flashlights into the sky.

It was a dome.

The former dome.

The light beam hit the time-traveling dome, and Lao Xu looked at the sky with a complicated expression. At this time, it was impossible to tell whether the dome was an illusion or reality.

The domes at the two points in time overlapped at this moment.

"This was the day the spring opened for the first time, and it was also the day I gained my abilities." Old Xu's voice was trembling.

Li and Luo suddenly realized.

"Follow me, rush this way!" The captain in the illusion is leading all the investigation team members to break out to one side.

After the breakthrough failed, he asked his team members to spread out and look for weak points.

Only the young man chose a special direction and happened to come to the spring.

At this moment, the spring water suddenly gushes out, and several people standing nearby can hear the sound of the water flow.

The young man in the illusion stared blankly. Before he could react, he was caught in the current by the giant hand transformed from the spring water.

Several people quickly avoided it, but the spring water did not splash on them, but passed through them.

"This is an illusion, don't be afraid."

After Lao Xu realized this, he walked towards the fountain. Li Luo and Li Xiangyi looked at each other and quickly followed.

Several people passed through the water and soon came to a space surrounded by water. This space was very spacious and seemed to be much larger than it looked from the outside.

"So this is the inside of the Wishing Fountain." Li Xiangyi sighed.

She looked at the floating water around her, the glittering golden water droplets, which was very novel.

The young man was communicating with a golden elf.

"Are you a relic? Why did you arrest me at this time?" The young man kept looking around, his expression a little scared and very anxious.

"Yes, I am a relic. I'm sorry to bring you here suddenly." The elf apologized to him: "I just wanted to ask, what is the thing you want most?"

Seeing this scene, Lao Xu covered his heart as if in phantom pain, and murmured to the young man: "Don't agree to it..."

But how can he affect the virtual image in history? These things have already happened and there is no way to change them.

Now, he could only helplessly watch his former self walking the same path he had walked before.

"Don't lie." The elf said gently.

Hearing this, the young man turned his head and looked at the golden water flowing to the side.

His wish was reflected on the golden water flow.

Lao Xu also looked at the water flow, which was also his wish.

However, the image of this wish was slightly different from what he remembered——

In the picture, the young man has gained great power.

He casually found the weak point of the dome, broke it open, and accurately found the shell man hidden in the attack, as if God had helped him.

He led the investigation team to repel the shell men and attracted everyone's attention. He was in the limelight for a while.

Later, young people can always come forward when the investigation team encounters difficulties and find out the key to the problem.

When going on a mission, he could discover hidden dangers at will, and the young man thus allowed the investigation team to reduce many casualties.

During construction, as long as he noticed something was wrong, accidents would soon occur. The young man quickly organized an evacuation. Although the building was damaged, no one was injured.

He can even observe the sky and predict the extreme weather that the oasis monitoring station will encounter, so that his teammates who are still growing food outside can take shelter in time.

Young people have become the most watched members of the investigation team and the main force that cannot be ignored when building Oasis City...

With his powerful strength, he was able to do what other hunters couldn't do despite all their efforts - go down to the depths of the abyss.

Others have to face a lot of dangers, but he wanders in the abyss.

Returning full of harvest, he enjoys the admiration of others in the oasis city he built with his own hands.

Fame, honor, status, envious eyes...

These pictures are not only his fantasies, but also his innermost desires.

The picture kept changing, and the young man even used tactics to solve the shell people attacking Oasis City.

In the golden water flow, densely packed shell corpses appeared in the pool, exactly the same as what happened just now...

The elf surrounded the young man, and his voice was very clear and gentle, but it pierced into his heart like a sharp thorn.

"Everyone who comes to me to make a wish will forget their true wish. The deeper the obsession, the more they will forget."

"This is the price..."

"Do you accept?"
