"Phew … It's finally done. These things burn easily."
The hero stared at the charred corpse of a creature in front of him. Then, he looked at the plants beside him.
"On the other hand, these plants don't burn easily."
The nearby plants, which looked dry and full of thorns, would not burn when touched by a flame, but the creature called the scorpion could easily burn up.
"Now, you're the only one left …"
The hero looked at the last creature. It was a special creature among the Hou.
It had thorny armor on its body. It didn't look like it grew out of its body. Instead, it looked like it was attached to its body.
"Do these creatures know how to make armor?"
"Woo!" Just as the Brave Warrior was thinking about this, the armored Denglong suddenly pounced at him. The Brave Warrior immediately dodged to the side and slashed at the Denglong with his sword.
Crack! With a heavy blow, the thorns on the creature's body were chopped off. At the same time, flames ignited where the Hou had hit.
However, the flames only burned for a few seconds. The Hou's armor didn't burn, just like the plants around it.
"Woo woo!" The Hou suddenly turned around and sent the hero flying.
The Brave Warrior crashed into a thorny tree, but it stood up in the next second and looked at the Venomous Centipede again.
"Its attack method seems very ordinary. Then, I'll use this method …"
Bi slammed into him again, and Valiant put his hand to his head.
Beep! A ray of light hit the charging Hou's head. Its front legs tilted. It fell to the ground.
The hero's helmet had a small laser emitter. It could be controlled by the movement of its eyes or its hand. The hero was almost fully equipped with powerful "equipment." This allowed him to deal with many different environments.
Looking at the fallen creature, the hero sheathed his sword.
"My mission here is to find some powerful creatures … and use their 'information' to create new demons. So far, I haven't seen any powerful creatures … but this one is special."
The hero walked to the Hou's corpse. Suddenly, he kicked hard. The armor on the Hou's body cracked, revealing the skin underneath.
"As expected. This is a manufactured armor. "The Hero took out a cube and patted it down." Then we might encounter something similar later. "
With that, the Hero continued walking deeper into the forest …
Several thousand seconds later.
"Is this … their nest?"
A special place appeared before the hero's eyes. It was a building made of trees.
This building was very large, and it felt like … a castle. It took up tens of meters of ground, and the surrounding walls were obviously made of the surrounding plants. The top of the building was filled with a large number of small objects, which looked like a large number of sharp thorns stuck together.
So far, they hadn't seen any living creatures. The Hero didn't see any entrance either.
It walked to the side of the building and touched it carefully. Then, he walked around the building and confirmed that there was no entrance at all.
Since that was the case, he decided to climb up and take a look.
The Hero's gauntlets and feet had tiny barbs that resembled arthropods. They could easily climb up some vertical cliffs, but after climbing up, the Hero didn't see any entrance.
However, he did see some holes. The top of the building was made of a large number of thorns stuck together. The thorns weren't that dense, and there were some holes on the top that allowed him to see inside.
"As expected, these things are all gathered inside."
Through the holes, the Hero saw the creatures inside. There were quite a number of Hou inside, and these Hou … were all wearing armor. Some of them were even wearing half of their armor.
"I see. Is this how they wear their armor?"
The Hero noticed that these Hou were 'licking' their unarmored companions. They spat out large amounts of liquid from their mouths. The liquid would quickly harden on their bodies and form new armor.
"So, this is how armor is made?"
The Hero believed that these abilities might be useful. He should collect information about these Hou.
But, how should he collect it? It would be dangerous to charge in directly. Although the Hero believed himself to be very powerful, he didn't want to challenge too many opponents.
While the Hero was hesitating, on the other side …
…
I see. There's something here that looks like this.
A red ball of fur was flying high up in the sky. Since the Hero was on the ground, Lin came to check out what was going on in the sky. This was a vast underground environment. Some strange spheres were the main source of light.
And what exactly was this ball? Lin could confirm that they were transparent. There was a tough 'rope' that allowed them to hang on the ceiling of the cave.
The hanging sphere was filled with liquid. The liquid emitted strong light, but it didn't have any temperature. At the same time, the liquid seemed to be highly toxic to normal cellular creatures.
However, the temperature here was high, so the creatures here could thrive. However, there seemed to be many … secrets here.
With that in mind, the ball of fur floated to the ground.
The Hero didn't seem to be interested in plants, so Lin had to pay attention to them. The plants here were very interesting. They were very different from normal plants, such as the way they reproduced.
The ball of fur flew to a tree-like plant. It was covered in thorns like other plants, but the difference was that it was reproducing.
These plants didn't reproduce by producing seeds. Instead, they dripped some liquid from the thorns on their bodies.
Lin saw that the plant was dripping liquid from one of its thorns. The liquid would harden when it touched the ground. As the 'water' dripped, the hardened substance on the ground would pile up higher and higher. In the end, it formed a small hill about ten centimeters tall.
This small hill was the baby of this plant. It looked like a rock, but … as long as one continued to observe it, they would notice changes.
Lin observed it for several days and nights. Although there was no day or night here, it was always bright.
However, the plant would continue to grow. The small hill that was initially formed began to grow thorns, and slowly, it took on the shape of a 'mother' and began to grow.
Lin Huang didn't know how long it would take for the plant to fully mature, but it should be very soon. Obviously, they relied on this method to reproduce.
It appeared to be a method of fission reproduction. Large plants would protect their 'reproductive cells' with a kind of liquid before dripping it out. It was a rather simple and convenient method of reproduction, and this kind of plant could quickly cover a large area with this method of reproduction. That was why the whole place was filled with this kind of plant. Previously, they looked like different kinds of plants, but now, Lin felt that they might all be the same.
Lin also checked the insides of these plants. They could also absorb light, but not much. Lin guessed that most of them relied on the nutrients underground.
Other than these thorny plants, there was another type of plant called 'lichens'.
In fact, they were just like lichens. They could often be seen gathering around thorny plants. They had a special ability.
The liquid of the thorny plants would quickly harden in the air, but these lichens had a special ability to turn the hardened plants back into liquid and absorb them.
However, the amount of liquid a lichens could absorb was limited, and their ability to liquefy was limited. At the same time, they couldn't affect the skin of the plant's trunk. Therefore, the plants here could continue to grow. Lichens usually relied on the thorns shed by the plants for food.
And the creatures here were all creatures that Atlan had never recorded. Lin believed that they might have changed greatly over the past few hundred years.
However, from Atlan's information, Lin could confirm that the creatures here were creatures that Atlan knew in the past.
However, there were still a few creatures that Atlan knew about, such as the 'Bi'. Although they didn't change much from Atlan's records, they seemed to have gained a strange ability. For example, here …
The pompom was now floating in an open space in the forest. There were many things here that looked like ruins. There were all kinds of broken and collapsed buildings everywhere.
The buildings were all made of stone, and most of them looked like 'tents'. There were also some stone pillars, decorations, and so on. They were all collapsed on the ground, but their original appearance could still be seen.
However, there was one thing that wasn't damaged — — a statue.
This statue stood at the center of the ruins. It looked like a standing Bi, looking up at the sky while holding a weapon that looked like a stone club in its hand.
But …
The statue's appearance didn't match its current appearance. The Bi that the hero saw now couldn't stand, and the structure of its hand was also different. The current Bi was unable to hold anything.
But why would there be a statue like this?
Moreover, they seemed to have built quite a few villages, but none of them were functioning properly.
Lin felt that she should check other places to see why they disappeared. Lin felt that although the Bi had become so special and was somewhat related to Atlan, it should be related to another creature.
This creature might be the creator of this underground space, and at the same time, it was also the creature that caused this world to become a wandering tumbler …
Lin had always suspected that this world was a Void Bus, a fully grown Void Bus.
However, it was different from the moon. It was' alive '. It could still observe its surroundings and maintain its stability.
That was why Lin wanted to find it and see where she could 'talk' to it. It should be paying attention to everything that happened to her, and it might even have the ability to teleport. Floating astronomy.
