Chapter 164 Misty Winter 11
Lin Xia's face darkened. She knew that she must have done something wrong to trigger the alarm system.
Seeing the person open the door, Lin Xia put on the [Invisibility Ring], used the [Gaze Barrier] to follow behind the person, and quickly went out the door.
The man looked back to make sure the door was locked before running forward. Lin Xia followed easily behind him. Although there were many people, Lin Xia was fast and could dodge quickly.
When getting off the elevator, I waited until there weren't many people in the elevator before quietly following them inside.
Once down there, she discovered that the place was heavily guarded, with people holding instruments and checking every few steps. If Lin Xia had relied solely on her mental strength, she would likely have been discovered as soon as she came down.
These people also gave her directions, and Lin Xia continued down until she finally saw the 'Rubik's Cube' itself.
It was a tiny gadget, smaller than the projection she had seen. It floated quietly in a glass case, with many wires connected to it, the other end of which was connected to a large computer below.
Upon closer inspection, a blue, thread-like data cable could be faintly seen, its destination unknown.
As soon as I entered, I could hear people talking inside.
"Elder Yan, besides our area, the dome has been confirmed to cover the entire globe."
"How could such a mistake happen?" The old man Lin Xia had met stared intently at the large screen in front of him.
"It suddenly cried out just now, and then it went out of control. Except for this place, the whole world is covered. The rate at which Earth's energy is decreasing has increased by 300%. If it is not stopped, Earth's resources will be exhausted in less than a month. Who knows what will happen next?" The speaker said worriedly.
"Then we must find a way to take back the dome quickly!" Old Master Yan wanted to live, not die quickly.
"Elder Yan, this thing is an alien creation. Originally, with gradual research, there was a possibility of mastering it, but now... it has been completely released and cannot be taken back at all." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
"What caused it?"
"It is a kind of location energy similar to mental energy."
Old Yan looked at the person leading Lin Xia, who frowned: "The suppressor on her head was definitely never removed, and she never left my sight."
"Could it be that her mental power is no longer suppressable?" someone asked.
"How is that possible? If she's that powerful, how could she be trapped in that game?"
"Perhaps the game stimulated her mental strength?"
......
Lin Xia dared not use his mental power rashly. Hearing the conversation of these people, he knew that everywhere except this place was shrouded in the dome, and his brows furrowed deeply.
Why didn't they even ask how to turn this thing off...? They subconsciously assumed that mental power was enough to do it.
"What if we turn the machine off?"
"...Cannot be closed."
"Try it, force shutdown!" Old Yan quickly issued the order.
As soon as the command was given, the Rubik's Cube suddenly began to spin, and the speed increased rapidly.
'Beep beep beep...'
All the machines around started beeping. Without hesitation, Lin Xia punched the glass cover, then reached out and grabbed the Rubik's Cube.
Because glass shards were flying everywhere, people were panicking and trying to avoid them. They couldn't see Lin Xia, but they knew there was someone there who had broken the glass cover and grabbed the Rubik's Cube.
Lin Xia felt a numbness all over her body, and then the world around her changed. She saw that everyone around her was also trapped in the snow and ice. Lin Xia had no time to care about anything else. The world in front of her also changed. The Rubik's Cube seemed to have become infinitely large.
Lin Xia closed her eyes, breaking free from the interference of her vision. Her mental energy surged forth, enveloping her and the Rubik's Cube. However, the Rubik's Cube had a thin, extremely tough membrane on it, making it difficult for Lin Xia's mental energy to penetrate.
The blade of mental energy pierced the membrane, releasing electric currents and spikes from the Rubik's Cube. Lin Xia's hand held it firmly without trembling, and drops of blood dripped onto the ground.
The Rubik's Cube's surface shimmered with blue light, and Lin Xia's mental energy was infused with many images. Her mental energy surged violently, and her green wood-type supernatural power surged, purifying the abnormal energy in her mental energy again and again.
A transparent film wrapped around Lin Xia from the opposite direction, vying for the initiative with the mental power that Lin Xia used to wrap the Rubik's Cube.
Lin Xia's mental energy and the transparent membrane engaged in a tug-of-war, with Lin Xia retreating and advancing. The direct contact with the mental energy allowed Lin Xia to quickly understand the nature of the transparent membrane.
It is very similar to the protective shield she received before, and it has an isolation effect. If she is wrapped in it, she may be forced into the scene it sets.
Nisa said that the Misty Winter is the most basic experience version. If you get stuck in other scenarios, it won't be so easy to find the loopholes.
Her mental energy was gradually enveloped by the transparent membrane, and Lin Xia felt quite powerless. She remembered that those people had said that the energy of Blue Star was not enough to support this thing for too long. So where did its energy come from? Would it have drained Blue Star in advance?
The blade of mental energy spun, severing all the wires connected to the Rubik's Cube. After the Rubik's Cube flickered a few times, the blue thread became much thicker.
Lin Xia's attention was drawn to the blue thread, and she slashed directly at it with her mental energy blade.
But it's an energy line, and even if the blade of mental energy cuts it off, it will immediately reconnect.
Lin Xia's face grew paler and paler. Her energy was not limitless, and if she continued to exhaust herself, neither she nor Lan Xing would be able to withstand it.
With a determined heart, she channeled a portion of her mental energy toward the point where the energy thread connected. Her action seemed to enrage the Rubik's Cube before her, causing the transparent membrane to exert even greater force.
Seeing this, Lin Xia moved even faster, directly inserting the blue silk thread into the connection point. Lin Xia felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, as a jumble of memories crashed down on her.
In that instant, the transparent package moved forward and backward a great distance. Lin Xia stabilized her mental energy, isolating herself from all external memories and emotions.
This is... a dark space. Lin Xia is very familiar with this place. It's a dream space, and there are many people with their eyes closed inside, densely packed, with no end in sight.
The blue threads clung tightly to the ground, seemingly trying to draw something from it, but they couldn't. Golden specks of light kept converging on the blue threads above the crowd.
For some reason, looking at the scene before her, Lin Xia suddenly blurted out, as if she had no teacher, "Blockade."
She felt as if something had been added to her spiritual power, resonating with this dream space.
As soon as she spoke, the dream space trembled, and everything stopped. A golden energy suddenly appeared in the dark space, slowly extending outwards. The blue threads were instantly severed, turning into golden energy points that returned to the crowd.
She sensed that the Rubik's Cube outside had suddenly stopped, as if it had crashed. Her mental energy returned, and looking at the inanimate object in her hand, Lin Xia's mental energy plunged directly into it.
