As Li Luo flipped to the end of the introduction to the "Research Institute Disappearance Case," Mo Ling, who had been staring at the screen, finally snapped out of the strange case.
"Looks like Dreamlike City isn't as peaceful as I imagined."
Although the Isolation Bubble completely separated the city from the outside, as long as it was within the Abyss, incomprehensible things were bound to happen.
Mo Ling looked at the city inside the bubble, somewhat dazed.
He had not yet taken a proper look at this city...
Dreamlike City's buildings were predominantly blackened. Their materials somewhat resembled the Chu Ti Troop's metal armor, but their exteriors were covered in glittering neon lights, brilliant and colorful, making them look exceptionally extravagant.
This rainbow-colored "shell" concealed the disorder of Dreamlike City's buildings.
Beneath the colored neon lights were countless haphazardly stacked structures, like black bricks piled together in a chaotic mess.
The city that looked incomparably exquisite from outside the bubble revealed its ever-present "flaws" only once one was truly inside it.
The neon lights atop the buildings were harmonious and gentle, but the buildings themselves were bloated and obtrusive.
Layer upon layer of Building Blocks had been piled messily into mountains, with all kinds of small paths and hidden passages weaving through them. The neon lights painted the roads in dazzling colors, but they could not conceal the underlying disorder.
What had Dreamlike City been like at the very beginning? Mo Ling could not help wondering.
Perhaps Dreamlike City had initially consisted of just a few little black houses, a simple base built by the humans who had arrived here.
As more and more people came, they began using that black material to "build blocks," connecting the original little houses together until they gradually formed this strange "building aggregate."
