I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 7 Shock Beast

Li Luo's footsteps stopped in front of an automatic steamer.

Behind him is a cart carrying cubes, and behind the cart is a full shopping cart.

The shopping cart was filled with various foods and some outdoor camping equipment.

Mo Ling was already numb.

Li Luo also bought a lot of expensive relic capsules, but she asked the shopping guide if these capsules could be used to hold food.

Mo Ling was worried about the girl's wallet.

But he was soon slapped in the face. When checking out, Mo Ling glanced at Li Luo's electronic screen.

The cost of shopping can't even keep up with the number of Li Luo's deposits jumping every second.

Rich people really don’t understand!
  Poverty did limit Moring's imagination.

Li Luo walked towards the renovation workshop again.

When Li Luo came out of the modification workshop with the cart, the cart originally loaded with supplies had turned into a small combat mountain bike.

Thick tracks and strong power carry the cubes in a flamboyant manner inside the monitoring station.

There is also a huge storage box behind the cube, which has a refrigeration function and is filled to the brim with various items.

At first glance, it seems that there is a mine in the house.

Li Luo walked out of the monitoring station amidst everyone's surprised eyes.

In front of the gate of the monitoring station, Li Luo climbed onto the seat in front of the car and rushed towards the valley indicated by the mission.

There were many hunters on the road who were on a mission. They were startled by the sudden arrival of the mountain bike and stared dumbfoundedly at Li Luo as he walked away.

Mo Ling had nothing to say.

He recalled what Li Luo said to the staff when he just walked into the renovation workshop——

"Can you convert this car into a tank?"

The movement of vehicles also attracted many roadside monster attacks.

But before he got close, Mo Ling was turned into pieces of flesh.

There are also some weak ones that can’t even keep up with the speed of mountain bikes.

Two days later, the two arrived at the Shock Beast's habitat, which took half a month to reach on foot.

A huge valley.

Looking down from the road, there is no sign of the Shock Beast. Tall and dense trees cover the entire valley.

The morning mist enveloped the entire valley, and the rich water vapor drifted up, making it look peaceful and peaceful.

But vaguely, a muffled rumbling sound could be heard.

Shock beast, as its name suggests, is a creature that can create vibrations.

The behavior of living things must always pursue a certain purpose, whether it is for survival, for courtship, or for enjoyment.

However, scientists don't know the purpose of the shock caused by the shock beast.

Some studies even speculate that the behavior of shock beasts is forced, because they will even be awakened by the vibrations of their companions.

Li Luo used the electronic screen to review the information about the shock beast while controlling the car to slowly drive into the valley.

Mo Ling also wanted to see this strange creature as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the two soon spotted one down the valley.

At first glance, it looked like a giant mechanical spider with its legs stretched out. Its huge jointed limbs were made up of metal parts that were not part of a living thing.

But compared to the spider, it only has two unbalanced mechanical legs, which alternately shuttle back and forth through the tall woods.

The slender body blends into the tall trees in the valley.

On the two legs is a small spherical metal mesh, with bright red flesh wrapped around the mesh. This is the only biological structure that can be seen from the outside.

The bright red flesh beats like a heart. Every time it beats, the mechanical legs at the back will rotate half a circle to the front.

The pointed front end is deeply inserted into the ground. With the next beating of flesh and blood, there will be a dull vibration from the front end of the mechanical leg inserted into the ground.

The cycle goes back and forth, and as long as it's moving, the vibrations never stop.

Mo Ling looked at this strange creature over two meters tall with some shock.

Weird, indescribably weird. The body structure is completely inconsistent with mechanics, and there is no purposeful behavior at all.

Li Luo was following behind, quietly recording the creature with instruments.

According to records, the Shock Beast is a creature with very poor perception and usually just wanders aimlessly.

The shock beast can only detect vibrations close to its side, which is smaller than Mo Ling's perception range.

When they feel a vibration that does not belong to them, they will frantically attack the source of the vibration as if they were disturbed.

Just like you being woken up by the electric drill upstairs at 6:30 on Saturday morning.

So much so that they will attack their own kind like crazy.

Yes, they are an absolutely solitary creature, but they have specialized habitats.

When Mo Ling saw the record for the first time, he had a deep sense of disobedience towards this creature.

What is the meaning of their existence?
  Mo Ling was confused.

While he was observing, the vibrating beast in front suddenly stopped moving, and the pieces of meat in the spherical metal mesh stagnated.

what happened?
  When the mechanical leg turned again, it turned in a circle and headed straight towards the direction of Mo Ling and the others.

Oops.

The piece of meat suddenly started beating violently like a bursting heart, and the vibrations accelerated rapidly.

That shock beast violated the rules, sensed the movement behind it, turned around and charged!
  Because she knew the habits of the shock beast, Li Luo was not far away, and this sudden situation caught her off guard.

Fortunately, Mo Ling's vision was always locked on the Shock Beast.

He quickly aimed at the spherical head and directly separated a large piece of flesh and blood.

The shock beast's originally spherical head suddenly appeared with a cube-shaped hole.

The swollen and beating flesh flowed out of the holes in the metal mesh like jelly and fell to the ground like broken eggs.

It was still beating after falling to the ground, like a red slime.

The hole peeled off by Mo Ling stretched out red blood threads and slowly healed.

This little flesh and blood slime still refused to give up and slowly jumped towards Li Luo as if committing suicide.

Without the control of the meat, the mechanical legs collapsed.

Only the red slime on the ground was jumping up and down comically, trying to get closer.

Li Luo picked up the instrument and recorded this strange situation.

Then he found a capsule from the back of the car and wrapped the flesh and blood slime in it.

After checking his surroundings, he relaxed and sat down on the seat in front of the car.

Take out the electronic screen, transfer the content recorded by the instrument just now, and start describing the abnormality:
  "The shock beast's perception range increases."

"The head's flesh and blood show rapid healing ability after being separated from the body, and it can still survive and maintain its aggressiveness."

……

After Li Luo recorded what he encountered, he went to the locker behind the car, took out a pile of food, and placed them neatly on the metal block.

Then he patted the metal block.

"Well done, eat more."

Mo Ling was about to pick food when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Am I really an electronic pet?

"I won't eat the food I came for!"

The food is right in the back of the car so I can get it myself!
  However, Mo Ling's stomach rumbled again.

On the road these past few days, he had finished all the berries and cans, and now there was no leftover food in the cube.

……

"Forget it, I'm here anyway, I can't hide it forever."

Half of the food on the cube disappeared instantly.
