Energy...
As a creature that liked to use machinery, not only did they need to consume food, they also needed to consume a lot of energy to maintain the operation of the machinery and buildings they built.
And where did this energy come from? It seemed to come from something special. This thing emitted energy, and this energy was used by the crystal lizards.
However, what kind of energy was this?
"It's this thing." Now, the spy was looking at a crystal lizard stuffing a small thing into an opening on the ground.
After it was stuffed in, the opening closed automatically. At the same time, there was a slight vibration from the ground. It was transmitting energy to the buildings on both sides of the wall.
Different from the buildings, the energy used by the crystal lizards was shared. Just like the Voids, there was a huge energy plant that provided energy to all the buildings.
This energy plant was built on the ground under Lin's spy's feet. It was a huge and complex structure that could transmit energy to all the buildings.
Because this floor was used as an energy plant, there were no buildings built on it.
However, there was no way to continuously transmit energy. The crystal lizards needed to replenish it frequently. Usually, the replenishment time was not fixed. The crystal lizards would stuff it with energy whenever they found it.
What was stuffed in was a cube-shaped object. It was said that the energy was stored inside. Most of the crystal lizards would bring this cube-shaped object to collect energy when they left to search for food.
Most importantly, when they did not collect the energy, the energy was enough for them to use for a long time. To be precise. It was enough for them to use these metal clusters to orbit their star three times.
Although it was unknown how fast the rotation speed was. It was obvious that it could be used for a long time.
Lin felt that these things could not only be used by the crystal lizards, but also by Lin. Lin had always wanted to find a new energy source. Currently, Lin was still using the original energy source, which relied on combustion as the source of jet power.
Although there was nothing wrong with this method of energy use, Lin felt that to find a source of energy that could last for a long time, it would take up a small space. More importantly, she needed a source of energy that would not explode.
Most energy plants would explode when hit, so it was more troublesome.
Currently, Lin had found several options. Some of them had higher energy efficiency, but they were more dangerous when they exploded...
The Voids had something called a 'fusion reactor', which was usually used on warships. It was different from the one Lin had found in the meteorite area. It could be said to be a more powerful type. Lin felt that if they had invented this earlier, the ocean would not have been polluted. Because this kind of energy can generally generate electricity without pollution.
Because it was invented late, the Voidfolk's ocean had already been completely polluted. Therefore, the Voidfolk agreed that there was no need to expend more manpower and resources to dismantle the underwater power plant, so their oceans remained the way they were.
However, even if they demolished and rebuilt it, they would not be able to remove the pollution in the ocean. The Voidpeople understood this, so they still used the old power station.
However, in general, it was because too many power stations had been built in the past. Dismantling them would cost an unknown amount of virtual currency, so no country was willing to pay for it.
Lin felt that if it was the general, he would definitely be willing to pay for it. After all, even if the current pollution wouldn't be removed after being converted into a pollution-free power station, there would still be a chance for recovery … but the general probably wouldn't care about this.
Unlike the 'fission' version she found in the meteorite area, Lin felt that this' fusion 'version had some value, but she didn't use it yet. The main reason was that after she could teleport, she felt that it didn't matter what kind of energy source she used.
However, after seeing this kind of energy source from the crystal lizards, Lin felt that it was still possible to change the use of energy source. If it didn't explode immediately after being hit, then no matter what kind of damage it received, it could be easily repaired.
Therefore, Lin decided to do some research to see if this energy had any value.
"You're here!" While thinking, a crystal lizard ran in front of the spy.
Giggle, it went to tell the other crystal lizards about the spy. Just like before, it only needed to tell one of them and the news would spread quickly among the crystal lizards.
Generally speaking, the crystal lizards that came from that place were very interesting to the crystal lizards here. However, Giggle didn't look happy now.
He looked very nervous. He quickly ran over and said to the spy via vibration, "You're sick!"
"What?" The spy responded in confusion.
"This is the result of the test just now." Giggle said, "You have to receive treatment immediately!"
The result of the test … was it the test just now?
Before coming here to see the crystal lizards loading the energy source, the spy did some 'tests' in Giggle's room.
Giggle originally wanted to tell all the crystal lizards here about Lin. However, before that, he felt that they should do some 'physical examination' to see if their bodies were normal.
Lin didn't think that was necessary. However, it seemed that testing was very important to the crystal lizards, so Lin gave Giggle a simple test.
Lin felt that this test could possibly reveal the spy's true identity. However, something unexpected seemed to have happened.
"Hurry up, otherwise it'll be very dangerous!" Giggle used high frequency vibration to express his nervousness and agitation. He climbed up and pulled Lin's spy forcefully. "We have to go to the 'hospital'!"
… In that case, let's go and take a look. Lin suddenly wanted to see what their 'hospital' looked like.
Thinking of this, Lin followed Giggle and jumped towards the wall.
Because they were in the void, as long as they set their target and jumped, they would be able to fly to the place they wanted to go. For example, a huge building on the wall …
The hospital.
This building was a huge building with a diameter of about 30 centimeters. It looked like a blooming 'king flower'. Of course, it was also made of metal.
On the petal-like structure of the building, many crystal lizards were driving their machines and stopping on it.
When Giggle and Lin's spy landed in front of the building, Giggle immediately ran over and pulled the operating lever in front of the building. The crystal lizards immediately drove their machines away. At the same time, the entire building started to transform rapidly.
The petal-like structure merged together and changed from the blooming shape to the shape of a flower bud.
"This is a repair shop," Giggle explained to Lin. "But when needed, it will transform into a hospital."
After that, Giggle and the spy entered the place that looked like a flower bud.
There was nothing inside except for a bunch of box-shaped objects.
"Your illness is' no protection '," Giggle said to Lin Feng. "That's why we have to add them. Otherwise, if you're exposed to the environment, you'll be easily swallowed by those things."
"You mean …" Before the spy could ask, Giggle quickly ran away. He ran to a corner of the hall where there was another operating lever.
He pulled it forcefully. Lin instantly saw many mechanical arms reaching out from the top of the hall. These mechanical arms quickly extended and grabbed the spy's body.
"Don't move. We have to put them on one by one." Giggle quickly ran to the spy's side and said, "There's still a lot of storage here. Don't worry."
After it finished speaking, Lin noticed many smaller mechanical arms reaching down from above. These mechanical arms were holding small black spheres. These mechanical arms placed these small spheres on every part of the spy's body. The spheres that were placed on the spy's body would quickly disperse and slowly disappear from sight.
Could this be …
As she thought, Lin adjusted the spy's eyes and turned them into 'microscopic mode'. This way, she could see very small things.
Lin realized that every sphere that was placed on the spy's body was a group of moving things. After these things were placed on the spy's body, they would quickly disperse and spread to various parts of the spy's body.
So that's how it is. This is the 'disease' that spies get.
Lin had seen these small moving things before. There were many of them on the black metal crystal lizards. They were a type of small, metal-like organism.
There were many types of them. The more common ones were the sea urchin type.
Perhaps during the previous inspection, Giggle realized that the spy didn't have these things on him. Hence, he thought that the spy was sick and brought him here for treatment.
If that was the case … the crystal lizards here also had these immune organisms. They could be used to prevent other microorganisms from invading the crystal lizards.
Moreover, they stored many of these organisms. Hence, when a crystal lizard lacked these organisms, it could be used here for 'treatment'.
These organisms seemed to be unable to differentiate between the spy and normal crystal lizards. They quickly settled down on the spy's body and didn't do anything strange.
Lin felt that these organisms seemed to be quite valuable. Not only the black metal crystal lizards, but the large black metal battleships were also filled with these tiny defenders to prevent microscopic attacks.
Lin felt that Lin's battleship could also make use of them. These things were quite useful …
… Not long after.
"He's no longer sick." Giggle was relieved to see that the spy was tested again after the 'treatment'.
Lin realized that they didn't inspect the body. They only inspected the outside of the body. Perhaps the crystal lizards could tell the condition of the body just by looking at the outside of the body.
"You can now go to the place you mentioned earlier." Giggle said to Lin. "That place has a lot of energy and also a lot of … danger."
