"Is the darkness still here?"
This was an underground cave. Fluorescent tree roots filled the entire space. In the light, three creatures were gathered. They were called Monchi, Monchi, and Hero.
Hero looked out from the entrance of the cave. It was still dark outside, and the sound of the giant creatures was still echoing.
He was hungry. He wanted to find something to eat, but he thought it was too dangerous, so … how about eating Monchi?
Monchi seemed to be something that could eat. Although Hero liked to eat cooked food, his body was fine even if he ate raw food.
"Wu wu wu ji!" Monchi seemed to have realized that the Hero was paying attention to them. They hurriedly huddled together, looking rather … terrified.
They had suffered too much fear, but Hero didn't plan on letting them go. Instead, he approached them step by step.
"Ah ah ah ah! Ji! " One of Monchi suddenly jumped in front of Hero and screamed. It seemed to want to say something to Hero, but Hero couldn't understand.
Hero thought that if Monchi could eat these creatures, he could eat them too. So, Scholar prepared to attack …
"You don't dare to go out?"
A voice suddenly appeared behind the Hero, giving it a fright.
"What? It's you?" The hero turned around and saw a red velvet ball floating behind him.
"Do you know what's going on here?" Hero said. "It's always been dark outside. Did you float in from outside?"
"I know. It'll be daytime soon," the red pompon said. "In three seconds."
"Three seconds … That's fast …"
As soon as Hero said that, a strong light shone in from outside the cave. The two Monchi screamed excitedly. Then they ran out of the cave.
Hero and the red pompon left the cave. The dark environment outside that was originally filled with terrifying monsters now seemed to have returned to normal. The sphere that looked like a small sun hung above the cave again. Everything looked very normal.
Only the traces left behind by the trees and the ground proved that the terrifying creatures had appeared.
"What's going on here?" The hero looked around and wondered, "Why are the creatures from before gone?"
"This is a special operation," the red pompon said. The red pompon said, "These creatures appeared in order to clear some things here."
"What are those creatures?" Hero said. "I've already taken pictures of them. Their actions are very strange …"
"You can continue to search for information suitable for demons. You can also try to solve the mystery here by yourself. That would be more interesting, wouldn't it?" The pompous ball said, "I still have some things to study." With that said, Then, the pompon disappeared from Scholar's sight.
"It disappeared again," Hero said. "Forget it. In that case, I'll go take a look!"
After saying that, the Hero ran into the forest …
"Even so, where should I go to solve the problem here?" Hero ran, puzzled. He looked at the traces left behind by the creatures and suddenly realized that he didn't know where he should go.
Forget it, I'll just find something to eat first. With that in mind, the hero ran in another direction.
On the other side.
The pompon was flying in the sky. Looking at the overall environment here, at present. Lin had already been to many places and had confirmed the pattern here.
There was indeed day and night here. During the day, it looked very peaceful, but during the night, a large number of strange creatures would appear. These creatures were very aggressive, but they only moved in the dark.
Specifically, these creatures weren't ordinary creatures. They belonged to this world.
Although all the creatures had different shapes, their 'tails' were connected. The pompon flew to a place where there was a big hole.
This hole was where the creatures had come out. Each hole could hold about five creatures. No matter how far they crawled, their tails would be connected to the hole.
During the day, they would retreat into the hole, and the hole would be quickly filled up. The ones filling up the hole were … pompoms.
Lin saw a group of pompoms appear in the forest around the hole. They used their mouths to push dirt and stones into the hole, completely blocking it.
However, it was obviously useless for them to do so. When night fell, these creatures would appear again.
However, the pompoms were indeed doing their best to avoid the creatures. A portion of their kind … were wiped out by them.
Lin had seen some records of the pompoms in the ruins left behind by the pompoms. There were no words, only pictures, so it was easy to understand.
At present, the pompon had returned to the ruins. The ruins were relatively intact. There was a large building in the center, and on the walls of the building were pictures of the past.
The pictures recorded the pompoms leaving the shelter and coming here.
From the pictures, it could be seen that … there were actually two types of pompoms. One was a four-legged type, like this one, and the other was a standing type, like the Atlan.
However, the standing type had disappeared, leaving only the current type.
And this type was on the verge of extinction …
The main reason for their extinction was the terrifying creatures that appeared during the 'night'.
You can see in the painting that they were being preyed on. It was a record of their predation.
The standing type was probably too slow. Although they could use tools better, they were almost useless against such a large creature.
The other type was able to escape quickly, so they stayed. Every night, they would hide in a specific place to avoid being attacked by the creatures.
However, it was difficult for this type of pompoms to grow in numbers. Their numbers slowly dwindled … at the same time, it seemed that there were many other types of creatures here, but they had all disappeared.
Monchi, pompoms, and several other types of creatures were the only ones left here …
Why was there such a strange environment here? Lin believed that this was some sort of 'mechanism'. The monsters would periodically clean up the various creatures in the forest until they disappeared.
