'Weng —!!!'
Steam erupted in front of Lin's eyes.
This was the depths of the huge metal mass, the place where the crystal lizards searched for energy.
Here, sound did not need to be simulated because there was air here. This place was separated from the airless area outside the metal mass. A layer of completely sealed 'wall' enveloped the inner space of the metal mass.
Therefore, the inside was completely different from the outside. The spy followed the crystal lizards' 'energy collection team' to this place.
After passing through a special 'door', the crystal lizards' team and Lin's spy arrived at this' sealed layer '. Although everything around this place was still made of metal, it was not quite the same as the outside. Most of the metal here was in the shape of a tube, and it was usually full of holes. And occasionally, a steam-like gas would erupt.
Now, Lin and the exploration team were in a tunnel about one meter wide. The walls of the tunnel were lined with densely packed tubes.
This place no longer looked like a metal dump, but more like the internal structure of a building, or the operating system of a huge mechanical device …
However, there was nothing operating here. Everything here looked like it had been abandoned.
The tubes were full of holes, and screams often resounded here.
'Weng —!!!' A large amount of gas spurted out in front of the spy. When the gas spread, Lin also felt a heat wave spreading.
The surrounding crystal lizards quickly ran to the sides, avoiding the heat wave.
The gas was like steam, but it was not steam. It seemed that something would occasionally happen in the tubes. It caused them to spurt out intermittently from inside.
Inside here. Not only did it retain air, but it also had a high temperature. If there was oxygen here, it would be in a gaseous state and not a liquid state.
Although the temperature here was not enough to melt ice and snow, it was quite dangerous for the void creatures in the metal mass. Most of the creatures in the outer layer could not enter this place. Only the crystal lizards and a few creatures could enter.
However, it seemed that the crystal lizards here could not withstand the higher temperature. They would avoid the steam-like spray. However. Lin remembered that the crystal lizards in the black metal could withstand the usual temperature of the Voidman Mother Sphere.
Perhaps there was something special about the black metal crystal lizards. They … might have been modified by the black metal.
The creator had said that Black Metal had the technology to modify these non-multicellular organisms. Lin had never seen such technology before, but if she were to think of it as a multicellular organism, crystal lizards were naturally resistant to high temperatures, so it would be easier to modify them.
As for the other creatures here, such as the liquid creatures, they had no resistance at all. They couldn't enter such a hot place, and they might even vaporize.
But because of the special environment here. Therefore, some creatures that couldn't be seen in the outside world had appeared …
In front of the spy's eyes, a group of creatures appeared.
'Weng —!!!' It was accompanied by a steam-like gas. The pipe on the ground screamed again. At the same time, a group of small creatures flew out from it.
These creatures were one millimeter in diameter and were spherical in shape. On both sides of the ball, there was a pair of small fin-like wings. In the process of flapping rapidly, they flew everywhere.
Lin had heard about these creatures from Giggle before. Now that she had seen them, she realized that these creatures were rather interesting.
They probably lived in the pipes and flew out with the spray of gas, then flew back into the pipes.
However, crystal lizards were more afraid of such creatures.
"Hurry up and leave!"
Seeing that the spy was too close to these creatures, the few crystal lizards behind him made a sound.
In an environment with air, crystal lizards used their tails to knock on the pipes to make sounds and communicate with their companions. The language of communication was similar to vibrations.
These small spherical creatures would scatter a large amount of powdery substances in the process of flying. These powders had a very strong corrosive ability.
This was indeed the case for crystal lizards. They could corrode crystal lizards' shells, so the other crystal lizards stayed far away.
Although the spy's shell looked almost the same as the crystal lizards', the material used to construct it was completely different.
However, the spy retreated a little and didn't study these creatures in detail.
Following the crystal lizards, the spy went deeper and deeper into the tunnel. This tunnel wasn't a straight line. There were many forks in the tunnel. If he hadn't followed the crystal lizards, he wouldn't have known where to go.
The crystal lizards were very familiar with the path here. They should be close to the first source of energy now.
… Right in front.
The tunnel in front seemed to be broken. A large number of pipes were twisted into the tunnel for some reason, completely blocking the path.
In the blocked area, there was a mass of transparent liquid. The crystal lizards' energy was collected from this liquid.
This mass of liquid occupied about 30 centimeters of the tunnel. Because it was quite transparent, the situation inside could be seen. They could also see the blocked area behind.
According to the crystal lizards here, this mass of liquid was formed by a large amount of things sprayed out from the pipes.
This mass of liquid was clearly not water. It was unknown what it was. The crystal lizards and the spy walked to the front of the mass of liquid.
The crystal lizards directly drilled into the mass of liquid. It felt like they had drilled into a jelly. They slowly swam inside the transparent mass of liquid.
At the same time, Lin's spy also entered the mass of liquid.
This mass of liquid felt similar to water. There was very little resistance. There were also many small substances floating inside. It was said that these substances were actually groups of small creatures. They would attack the crystal lizards.
At this time, it seemed that the small metal creatures on the spy's body were useful.
Switching to a microscopic view, Lin could see what was happening to the spy's body. The small substances in the mass of liquid were indeed groups of small creatures. When they approached the spy's body, the black immune creatures on the spy's body would start a war with them.
The battle was quite intense. It looked very much like a battle between cells. Lin was more concerned about the creatures in the mass of liquid … they were very similar to the commonly seen cellular creatures …
As Lin was observing, the other crystal lizards had already swam to the front. These crystal lizards were carrying a box, known as an 'energy box'. It was said that as long as it was placed in water, it would slowly fill up with energy.
After finding a suitable location, the rate at which the energy was stored would be very fast.
It seemed … this mass of liquid would automatically fill up the box with energy? Floating astronomy.
