I'm trapped in a cube

Where did the earlier Moon Altar go?

As soon as these words came out, everyone gathered in front of Li Luo's electronic screen, pointing and discussing seriously.

"This should be from two hundred years ago. It doesn't look that old. Look at the stones on it. They're not even worn."

"Not necessarily. I think this was from a long time ago. These runes are a little blurry! It must have been a long time."

"That's because the runes are glowing, so you feel blurry. From such a distance, the glowing things would not be visible clearly!"

"Aren't there scuffs on these edges too? Look at this, there's a hole in it."

"Hey! That's not wear and tear, it's a water hole for seawater to pass through to reduce the impact of seawater on the building. We also have one on this moon altar now. If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself!"

"Yeah?"

"..."

Everyone was talking and talking.

During the debate, the pseudo-fish people were not convinced by anyone. They looked at the moon altar on the electronic screen and had different opinions.

Until someone raised his head and looked at the sky, he suddenly froze and his eyes widened.

"Stop arguing! Look over there, what's that!"

He pointed in a direction and reminded with a shocked look on his face.

Everyone looked quickly and were shocked speechless by the scene in front of them.

After a long time, someone said in a daze:

"There is still one?"

"There's more than one! Look over there, there's another one!"

Another person reminded him, pointing in another direction with trembling.

There is not only one moon, or moon altar, in the sky. There are other moon altars hidden high in the sky behind the thick fog.

At this moment, everyone realized that these moon altars were not trying to disguise the moon, nor did they abide by the principle of "there is only one moon".

They simply flew into the sky for no reason.

"One, two, three, four...ten!"

"There are ten moons!"

After repeated confirmations, everyone determined the number of moon altars in the sky at this time.

Whispers began again, and discussions filled with doubts abounded.

"Is that the Moon Altar from two thousand years ago?"

"No, it's two thousand and two hundred years! Also counting the one under our feet!"

These moon altars floating in the sky emit different lights, some are very bright, and some are so dim that you can't see them clearly hidden in the clouds and mist.

Li Luo pointed the camera at the dim moon altar, and the scene above could be seen clearly.

The runes were still clearly visible, but the light emitted by the runes was very weak.

"This should be the Moon Altar from a relatively long time ago."

"How can it still be preserved like this? Fish-Man Island is so big, where did they hide before?" Everyone looked in disbelief.

Although everything that happened at this time became more and more fantastic, the facts were right in front of us.

"Jeff, what is the function of this moon altar?" Someone finally couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know." Jeff also looked confused and stared at the sky blankly.

"Has the patriarch told you what will happen after the moon altar is decorated? Is this normal?"

Jeff still shook his head.

"You'd better go and ask earlier. Maybe the patriarch didn't expect such a thing."

Upon hearing this suggestion, Jeff immediately stood up and prepared to walk towards the village.

But as soon as he stood up, he froze in place.

"Did you hear anything?" he asked suddenly.

"what sound?"

"Buzzing noise."

Everyone who was still chattering immediately fell silent and listened carefully.

"It seems true."

A faint buzzing sound came from beneath my feet.

A pseudo-fishman called out a water tentacle, placed it on the ground, and quickly came to the conclusion: "It came from the runes."

"Do runes also make sounds?"

Everyone focused their attention on the runes, only to realize that the runes at this time were a little different.

Under the moonlight, the inside of the rune was trembling slightly, and fine dust slowly floated along the sea breeze, turning into eye-catching white dots.

"Why does it feel like the moonlight is getting brighter and brighter?" A pseudo-fishman covered his eyes and asked doubtfully.

At this time, everyone realized that not long after, the moonlight had indeed become much brighter.

The fog even seemed a lot thinner under the illumination of the moon.

But Jeff looked at the moon in the sky and stared at the runes under his feet with a strange look on his face.

He knelt down, touched the mark with his hand, and rubbed it a few times with two fingers. The fine dust fell from his hand and drifted into the distance along the sea breeze.

After doing all this, Jeff said with a slightly trembling voice: "It's not that the moonlight is getting brighter, it's the moon altar under our feet that is glowing."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked down at their feet.

"Want to run?"

"I feel like it's already too late. Look over there."

In the mist in the distance, a wall of moonlight suddenly rose.

The wall of light swept in from the other edge of the Moon Altar, along the rune lines, and the dust flew up from the trembling runes, as if it was carried by the erupting wall of light.

The vibrations of the entire moon altar became more and more obvious, and the buzzing sound began to get closer.

Everyone immediately stood up straight and stared at the rising wall of light warily.

"what is that?"

"moonlight?"

"Could it be that this moon altar under our feet will also rise to the sky?"

Everyone wanted to escape, but the wall of light surrounded them in the blink of an eye.

"Jump into the sea?"

"No! The old food should still be there, it's even more dangerous in the sea!"

In an instant, everyone on the edge of the Moon Altar was in a dilemma.

No one expected that it all happened so quickly.

The moonlight wall is like a long snake, curling up and coming faster and faster. No one knows what will happen when it touches that dazzling light.

However, Mo Ling's attention was not on the moonlight wall at this time.

He was still staring at the words on the platform.

That word represents "clock".

The cross in the center was shaking violently, and the dust was fixed in the air, just like the scene where time had stopped that Mo Ling had seen before.

Not only that, the little fry surrounding the cross was swimming counterclockwise, constantly passing between the crosses.

It's like a constantly flashing slide. After each flash, the position of the small fry will change.

Frame after frame.

Obviously every time it is fixed, the small fry looks like strokes deeply imprinted on the platform, without any trace of movement at all.

But after the moonlight flashed, it had already arrived at the next place.

Mo Ling looked at it for a long time before realizing that it was not an illusion.

"It's really moving!"

Not only that, as the vibrations became more and more obvious, the moonlight flashed faster and faster, and the position of the small fry also changed more and more frequently.

"The retrograde pointer and the reappearance of the Moon Altar, what does this mean?"

Mo Ling was in pain. He could obviously understand these words and could accurately detect the strangeness of the Moon Altar, but everything on the Moon Altar was like the layers of fog on Fish-Man Island, and he couldn't see the truth at all.

In the flickering light, Mo Ling felt dizzy.

The little fry changed its position frame by frame, and his eyes were in a trance.

The strange light stimulation made Mo Ling feel nauseous, and she could no longer stare at the flashing words.

He quickly looked away and looked at the others.

When he was just in a daze, the moonlight wall had already swallowed up everyone on the edge of the moon altar.

At this time, they were all bathed in the moonlight, staring straight ahead, as if they had seen something terrible.

Dust is fixed in the air.

Above the moon altar, everything was pale.

Time stands still again...
