This place was … … a special world. ¢£
This place was the creator's prison, and the pompoms had arrived.
However, rather than calling this a prison … it would be better to call it a tumbler full of vitality.
Originally, Lin thought that the surface of this place was just a wasteland made of rocks, but in reality, it was a rich environment. Although most of the surface was indeed made of rocks, there were also many wonderful things. The pompoms were currently hiding in a canyon, observing their surroundings while concealing themselves.
Tap … …
Lin heard a sound.
Looking up, she saw a huge creature walking across the canyon. This creature had six slender legs more than ten meters long, which allowed it to cross the canyon, but its body was disproportionate to its legs. Its body was only a few meters long, and it was shaped like an egg.
This small body waved its extremely long legs, and after seeing it walk across the canyon, the pompoms also flew up.
After flying over the canyon, Lin could see that there was a vast … … swamp in front of the canyon.
There were no plants in this swamp, only potholes on the ground, and in these potholes … … liquid.
This liquid didn't seem to be water, but a kind of liquid with shiny spots, as if it was mixed with a lot of glowing crystal fragments.
Let's call it water for now, it's more convenient.
The long-legged creature that Lin saw just now slowly walked between the potholes, very careful not to let its legs step into the water.
However, there were many other things in the water, and they seemed to like the water very much.
The pompoms slowly flew through the air. Looking at these creatures. These creatures' composition was … … wonderful.
They looked like a whirlwind that constantly rotated. In fact, when Lin first saw them, she didn't think they were living creatures, but they did behave like living creatures.
Each 'whirlwind' was made up of a large number of fragments, and these fragments would continue to rotate with a spherical object in the center, so it looked like a small whirlwind.
These whirlwinds would slowly move on the surface of the water, and at the same time, they would pick up some fragments in the water.
The pompoms approached the swamp below and carefully observed. Lin could see that the whirlwinds would pick up the glowing fragments in the water and mix them into their 'bodies'.
The fragments that were mixed into the whirlwind initially looked like crystals with a beautiful luster, but when they were spun together with other fragments in the whirlwind, their color would slowly change.
In the end, it turned black like the other fragments, as if it had been dyed.
These whirlwinds seemed to be increasing the number of fragments spinning in their 'bodies' through this process, but they would not continue to grow in size. Lin noticed that while they were sucking in the debris, they would also throw out some black debris from their 'bodies'.
The black debris would fall into the water. Therefore, the whirlwinds were able to maintain their size to a certain extent. It was as if they were eating, constantly sucking in new debris and throwing out old debris.
The pompom slowly flew to the side of a puddle below.
The whirlwinds here also noticed the arrival of the pompoms. Although they didn't know how to observe, they quickly left as soon as the pompoms appeared.
They did look like creatures that lived here. They were not Brain Spirit's troops, but they were definitely related to Brain Spirit in some way.
Lin found that the air here was denser, making it easier to fly. As for the water here …
The pompoms stuck a strand of hair into the water to observe and examine the substance inside.
This process lasted for several dozen seconds before the pompoms pulled out the strand of hair.
This water … seemed to be 'alive'.
It attacked the pompoms' hair. When the hair reached into the water, Lin could feel the water inside moving. At the same time, a sharp object moved along the water towards the hair.
This was how the hair was cut off. Lin now understood why the long-legged creature didn't stick its leg into the puddle.
But before the hair was cut off, Lin also noticed that there were a lot of tiny fragments in the water. These fragments looked very similar to crystals. Almost all of them were on the surface of the water, but there were also a lot of black fragments at the bottom of the water. These should have been scattered by the whirlwinds outside.
These black fragments were also slowly changing color. Lin felt that they would eventually turn into sparkling crystals and float to the surface.
It seemed that the whirlwinds and the puddles had formed a strange relationship. They were exchanging the fragments inside their 'bodies'. The whirlwinds would throw the black fragments to the puddles, and the puddles would float to the whirlwinds with the sparkling fragments.
There seemed to be some kind of special transformation process in this.
Lin wanted to catch a whirlwind to study it. At the same time, she also wanted to study the ecology of this place. But now, she felt that it was better to find the entrance to the creator's prison first.
Obviously, the creator's prison was under the Tumbler, but Lin believed that there should be an entrance without digging in.
With that in mind, the pompoms continued flying across the swamp.
Apart from the whirlwinds, there were also many creatures that looked like frost stones wandering around the swamp. They were like stones with legs, running around the puddles. They seemed to be more energetic than the frost stones she had seen before, but they were also very careful not to touch the puddles.
The temperature here was relatively low, but it was considered high for the Void. The temperature here was maintained at a temperature that could almost dissolve water.
However, there was no oxygen here, nor were there any multicellular creatures. The creatures Lin saw seemed to be made up of other substances. Whirlwinds, stones, and … mountains?
Thud … Heavy footsteps came from dozens of meters in front of the pompoms. A ten-meter-tall thing that looked like a small mountain moved slowly on the ground.
This thing … was it also a creature? Lin could not see its legs. It was almost moving on the ground, but it was indeed moving.
The pompom flew over it, and the strange swamp was almost at its end.
There was a cliff at the edge of the swamp. After flying over the cliff, the pompoms could see a vast plain. At the same time, Lin also saw the 'long legs' from before.
There were quite a lot of them. They seemed to be a group of migrating creatures. Hundreds of them formed a large group, strolling on the plain that was full of pebbles.
The long legs seemed to be the most similar to multicellular creatures. Their legs were very slender and looked like a plant called bamboo. They seemed to have a soft outer skin, and at the end were structures similar to claws that could be used to grab things.
However, the food they ate was not like multicellular creatures. They used their long legs to pick up stones on the ground to eat. Their long legs had many joints, allowing them to bend to the side of their 'mouth' that was more than ten meters high.
The pompoms flew on the plain. When they passed by the group of long legs, the surrounding long legs looked at them curiously, but they did not show any emotions of fear.
On the other hand, the pompom picked up some rocks, something that the long-legged creatures often ate … After examining the rocks, Lin found that they were a soft, mud-like substance, but they were indeed not suitable for the consumption of multicellular creatures, and the long-legged creatures were clearly not multicellular creatures.
They were also picky when it came to eating stones. They only ate a small portion of them.
Lin thought that these stones should be a renewable resource. Perhaps these stones could be produced from somewhere. Otherwise … they would definitely finish them if they ate here for a long time.
Did 'a long time' mean … a long time accumulating for a month? However, Lin thought that no matter how long a year was, it would not accumulate for a month. A month only came once every few hundred years.
However, because of Brain Spirit, this rule had changed.
Whoosh … Suddenly, the pompoms felt an abnormal movement on the ground.
The airflow around them became faster and faster, and small stone chips began to roll on the ground.
It felt like … a gust of wind was rising.
Tatata … The surrounding long legs seemed to show fear. They began to gather together. Lin looked at the other side of the plain.
There was indeed a gust of wind, but it looked very … strange.
It was a whirlwind.
It was very similar to the one in the swamp. It was a sphere made up of countless swirling debris. The only thing that was different was its size. This whirlwind was about ten meters in diameter and was about the same height as Long Leg.
Its spinning caused the surrounding air to become abnormal. Lin thought that this whirlwind might be some kind of predator.
It was flying towards the nearest long-legged beast.
Long legs, but they ran very slowly. Lin thought that if they ran, their legs would bump into each other and they would fall. Thus, they could only move slowly.
The whirlwind was not fast, but it was faster than the long leg. The long leg was soon sucked into the whirlwind.
In the swirling dust, Lin could see that the long leg's' skin 'seemed to be rotting. It had been peeled away by the whirlwind at an extremely fast speed. A sticky liquid burst out of the skin.
Everything was mixed together with the debris of the whirlwind. The whole process lasted more than a hundred seconds.
The whirlwind left, and the surroundings calmed down. All that was left of the long leg was a pile of 'bones' full of cracks.
They did have bones and flesh, very much like multicellular organisms. However, it seemed that the long legs were the prey of the whirlwind. They gathered together to prevent the whirlwind from attacking them. Those who were slow or alone became the targets.
After the whirlwind left, the long legs spread out and continued to eat as if nothing had happened. The pompoms continued to fly deeper into the plain.
The creator's prison … They were getting closer and closer. Lin thought that they should be able to find an entrance … like a cave or something. Floating astronomy.
