Under the blockade wall, the corpses all over the ground began to emit a strange aura.
If the corpses began to rot and stink, the Voidfolk might transport the corpses away or burn them. However, the fungus seemed to be able to cause more damage before the corpses rotted.
The Voidfolk's breathing apparatus was mainly made up of an air inhaler worn on the face and a small filter. This thing was very light, as long as the filter was worn, it would automatically work.
This thing could effectively filter the polluted air on the Voidfolk's Origin Sphere. Depending on the price, the lifespan would also vary. Usually, it would last for more than ten days and nights. After that, it could be cleaned and used again.
Military ones were usually the most effective. However, no matter what, they might last for a shorter time in heavily polluted areas. And if they were polluted, they might become unusable very quickly …
The fungus released by the crystal lizards could cause this effect. When they reproduced, they would constantly release a kind of gas. This gas would block and corrode some of the structures in the filter, especially the internal gills. The Voidfolk imitated the gills of fish to create the internal structure of the filter. However, the material was also very vulnerable to damage.
In fact, this fungus was originally present on the Voidfolk's Origin Sphere. The Voidfolk called it 'filter fungus'. However, it usually lived in places like the sewers. No one knew how the crystal lizards got their hands on it.
Moreover, when the Voidfolk smelled it, their filter was almost destroyed.
When Lin saw the Voidfolk wearing the breathing apparatus on their Origin Sphere as if they were living on a foreign planet, she was very interested in the breathing apparatus of the Voidfolk, so she knew the various structures inside …
Although the Voidfolk usually had backup. However, the number of backup filters would not be very high.
When the filter was damaged. They would be like the believers who were stripped naked … They would suffocate to death. Even if they hid in the tank with the filter system, the tank's filter system would still be affected.
And before it happened, they wouldn't even notice the threat.
This way, the Black Metal did not even need to waste anything to completely eliminate this multinational army.
However, Lin believed that the Black Metal's original plan was not like this. They originally wanted to directly attack because there was already a large number of troops gathered at the teleportation point … They suddenly changed their mind.
Why did they suddenly change their approach?
Lin thought. They must have noticed … 'Lin'.
Perhaps they had yet to fully understand Lin's existence, but the black metals did know that there was something obstructing them on the Voidfolk's mother sphere, so they did not intend to directly invade, but instead used a less costly method to eliminate the Voidfolk's army.
They didn't want to send out their troops to fight the Hollow People first, so that Lin wouldn't be able to obtain information.
Since that was the case, he could not let them get rid of the Void Dwellers here.
While Lin was thinking, more pompoms had already arrived above the ruins of the city. These were the pompoms that were scattered all over the city for observation purposes. Looking at the group of corpses below, the pompoms quickly flew down. Furthermore, it was stuck to the corpse …
Bacteriophages. Pompom released miniature troops with this name on each corpse. They were shaped like amoebae and devoured the surrounding fungi at an extremely fast speed.
The Bacteriophages could divide after devouring to a certain extent. At the same time, they could also use the nutrients of the corpses to create a powerful army.
In various parts of the sealed area, the Bacteriophages created by the pompoms began to eliminate the fungi on the corpses. These fungi did not have any defensive capabilities and were easily dealt with …
Without sufficient quantities of these fungi, they could not produce enough gas to destroy the filters. However, Lin felt that this process would not be very smooth …
The crystal lizards that were running back and forth between the ruins and releasing fungi quickly noticed this abnormality.
Not only were they releasing fungi, they also seemed to be able to detect the concentration of the gases released by the fungi in the air.
They seemed to have sensed the abnormality. Lin saw some of the crystal lizards begin to inspect the corpses. They used a method similar to smell. When they found that there were fewer fungi on a certain part of the corpse, they would spit out more fungi.
The crystal lizards did not seem to have noticed … Lin's Bacteriophages.
The Bacteriophages began to expand rapidly by devouring the fungi. As if they were occupying a base, the Bacteriophages grew in numbers and occupied one corpse after another.
Under the sealed area, this miniature army began to expand rapidly. Lin decided to completely occupy all the corpses here. That way, none of the corpses would release any gases.
However, after the crystal lizards had spat out almost all the fungi stored in their bodies, they realized that the gas composition still did not increase. They quickly realized that there was a problem here. However, they did not have the means to detect microscopic things, and there was no way for them to discover the pompoms of the Bacteriophages that were hidden on the corpses …
However, the crystal lizards still seemed to have a way. They made some strange movements.
'Crackle —'
The sound of electricity flashing was the cry of the crystal lizards. It was achieved through friction within their bodies. At first, only one or two crystal lizards cried out, but soon, all the crystal lizards in the area began to cry out together …
"What's that sound?"
The small crackling sound echoed between the ruins. The Voidfolk standing on the walls of the sealed area also heard it.
"Forget it, it might be an illusion." However, when they did not see the source of the sound, most Voidfolk liked to use this excuse to confuse themselves. Therefore, the soldiers on the walls did not pay much attention to the sound below.
On the other hand, Lin was prepared. This sound was used to call out to their own kind in the crystal lizard language …
Just like the radish on the moon, the crystal lizards had three 'genders'. Although the genders of creatures were usually different, when the three genders were gathered together, they could use a certain method to create offspring of a random gender.
Crystal lizards of different genders had different abilities. So far, Lin had seen two types. The one that could open cones was the first type, and the second type that could release fungi was the second type.
And now, they were trying to call out the third type. With the crackling sound, these crystal lizards appeared in front of Lin's eyes.
They looked the same as other crystal lizards, but their color was pink. As for what they were used for, it was still unknown at the moment.
Because Lin learned about the crystal lizards from the crystal lizard she caught before, she could not fully communicate with it yet. Therefore, she could not express some complicated words.
Although, Lin could almost guess what these crystal lizards were used for.
They crawled out from the rocks and debris of the ruins and quickly rushed to the corpses of the Voidfolk around them and lay on top of them.
For the Bacteriophages on the corpses, it felt like a boundless mountain suddenly fell from the sky. The small prismatic spikes on the surface of the crystal lizards' bodies were like huge spikes piercing into the skin of the Voidfolk.
Although no Bacteriophages were harmed, it was not certain what would happen next.
Countless black substances were sent flying from the crystal lizards' bodies when they lay on the ground. A large number of them scattered on the skin of the Voidfolk corpses …
They were like an army that suddenly descended. This army was pure black, made up of the black sea urchins and some other kinds of microorganisms that Lin had seen before. Furthermore, they all had metallic bodies.
When they encountered the Bacteriophages, they attacked. Every metallic microorganism had a cutting or piercing limbs. They cut open Lin's Bacteriophages or pierced through them. They spread rapidly on the corpses of the Voidfolk, trying to kill all the Bacteriophages and take back the corpses.
When more crystal lizards appeared and jumped on the corpses of the Voidfolk, a miniature war began.
This should be the ability of the third type of crystal lizard.
The other two types of crystal lizards had these small metal immunity units, but their immunity units would not leave the crystal lizard.
But this third type was different. They had more variety of units and could move away from the crystal lizard's body to attack the Bacteriophages on the corpses around them. But …
Lin noticed a situation.
Lin ordered the Bacteriophages to retreat, then gathered some of them together to form a large group that could defeat their target.
After retreating to a certain distance, Lin noticed that the black units had become strange.
Their initial attacks were very coordinated, and they could cut the Bacteriophages into pieces at the same time from different positions. However, after chasing them for a long distance, their movements became slower, and they no longer cooperated. Some of them even went around in circles as if they had lost their way.
This gave Lin a chance.
When their attacks weakened, Lin had some of the Bacteriophages group together. They simply fused together to become dozens of times larger than before. At the same time, they produced a liquid that could corrode the black metal inside their bodies.
They should also be given a new name — — 'Metal Devourers'.
The new group of Metal Devourers began to charge at the black metal that seemed to have lost their way! They crawled over the skin of the Voidfolk that was full of holes and came to the side of the metal microorganisms.
Gulp! The Metal Devourers instantly spread their soft bodies and swallowed the metal microorganisms into their bodies.
The metal microorganisms struggled inside, but to no avail. The Metal Devourers did not wait for them to dissolve before spreading their bodies and swallowing another metal microorganism.
There was a phrase in Lin's vocabulary called 'using softness to overcome hardness'. It seemed to be referring to this.
This new group of Metal Devourers swallowed all the metal microorganisms along the way, allowing them to slowly struggle and decompose in their bodies. Their final target was, of course, the towering peak of the crystal lizard in front of them.
However, they were not the ones to execute the final attack. Instead, it was the ball of fur.
Bang!
After a loud bang, the towering crystal lizard's body instantly turned into pieces that scattered all over the sky. (To be continued …)
