Slowly … it floated. ¢£
This was the Tumbler known as the 'Creator's Prison'. After passing through the plains, Lin had arrived at a place that could probably be called a mountain.
There were large and small rocky mountains everywhere. Although there were no 'long legs' here, the small whirlwinds from the swamp could still be seen.
They slowly flew between the mountains, and here, the whirlwinds seemed to have become their prey.
On the rocky mountain walls, Lin could see many cracks. These cracks were more than five meters long, but they were not caused by the collapse of the mountain.
They seemed to be … some kind of predator.
Lin noticed that a whirlwind approached the crack on the rocky wall, and the moment it approached, the crack suddenly opened up like a mouth.
A powerful suction force suddenly sucked the whirlwind in, and then the crack closed up.
It seemed like nothing had happened, but Lin could still hear the sound of the whirlwind being 'chewed' inside the crack.
It seemed that there were some special 'teeth' in the crack, and it was constantly squeezing the whirlwind that was swallowed. The whirlwind that originally formed the whirlwind was constantly being squeezed inside, making a loud noise.
These cracks did look like the creatures lying in ambush on the rocky mountain, but Lin believed that the entrance to the Creator's Prison should also be on these rocky mountains.
Lin felt that one of the cracks might be the entrance to the underground prison. If they disguised themselves like the creatures around them, it would be difficult to distinguish them from the outside.
Therefore, Lin planned to find where the entrance was. Of course, there might be Brainwave's troops nearby. So, they had to hide.
In fact, when Lin entered the Tumbler, she had a part of the pom-poms hide. But the other part was revealed. She wanted to see if she would be attacked.
But so far, it seemed that only 'wild creatures' were seen. Lin felt that she could find the entrance to the prison through these wild creatures.
Other than the crevices and whirlwinds, there was also a small creature that Lin called the 'Rolling Wind Ball'. They looked like whirlwinds, but they were formed by a large pile of debris. However, these debris were fixed together by intersecting and intersecting with each other. They did not constantly spin like a whirlwind.
These 'rolling wind balls' were only a few dozen centimeters in diameter and could only move on the ground. However, there was a core floating in the center of the ball that looked exactly like a whirlwind.
Lin felt that these cores were the key parts of these creatures, similar to the heart or brain. They probably used magnetism or some similar ability to control the debris around them. Windballs usually lived around the cracks of rocky mountains. Lin found that they used the debris protruding from the surface to grab onto the ground and roll up the slope.
They seemed to feed on the debris around the crack, because when the crack swallowed the whirlwind, a lot of debris would be spilled out. The Wind Balls rolled around the crack, mixing the scattered debris into their own balls.
It was very strange. They would only mix in the debris and would not throw out their original debris.
Therefore, Lin felt that as long as she could find a crack that was not visited by the Windball, that would be the entrance to the prison.
After all, it wouldn't eat the whirlwind when it entered its mouth.
Lin found a special crack on top of a rocky mountain, and there were no wind balls or whirlwind fragments around it. Lin felt that this was very suspicious.
Thus, Lin had a pompom approach it and stuck a strand of hair into the gap to observe …
This gap … should be right.
She could see that there was a very long passage in the gap, which seemed to lead to a very deep place. This must lead to the location of the creator … probably.
Lin was not completely sure. After all, even if she knew where the creator was, she would not know where the entrance was.
Although digging a hole was a relatively simple method, digging a hole would cause a commotion that would definitely attract the Brainspawn's attention. Right now, Lin only had a few pompom, and she could not quickly increase her army here.
The pompom could not get into the gap here. Thinking about it, Lin had the pompom release three tiny pompom that could get into the gap. These pompom quickly flew into the passage of the crack.
As they flew deeper into the passage, Lin's other pompom also found some suspicious gaps without rolling wind balls. These places were also investigated by the pompom.
And in the process of detection, Lin discovered many interesting things …
Some of the cracks did not lead to the depths. They were like other cracks, belonging to 'creatures'.
Lin found that these cracks could actually be considered as the 'mouth' of a creature, and the entirety of this creature was the rocky mountains that were commonly seen here.
It was as if each rocky mountain was a whole creature, and the cracks on their bodies were 'mouths' used to hunt whirlwinds. The things eaten by the mouths would be gathered at the center of the rocky mountain to be decomposed and digested.
These mountains were like ordinary creatures, having organs. However, organs were simpler compared to multicellular creatures, and after decomposing, they would also discharge some waste materials to the bottom.
Now, Lin had some pompom reach the bottom of the rocky mountain because Lin found that some of the cracks were not 'mouths', but empty spaces that led to the bottom of the rocky mountain.
Why these empty spaces appeared was unknown, but Lin was now certain that these places were not passages to the prison …
They only led to the bottom of the rocky mountain, and there was a larger space at the bottom of the rocky mountain, where the rocky mountain accumulated its' excrement '.
These 'excrement' were just a pile of things similar to rocks and sand, and they were all substances left behind after the whirlwinds were decomposed.
And here, Lin could see another kind of creature processing these things.
These creatures … Lin guessed that they were the rocky mountain's young because they looked exactly the same as the rocky mountain, but they were very small, only a few tens of centimeters tall, like a miniature mountain.
However, these creatures had legs under their bodies, and they used these legs to walk and collect the substances around them, piling them into small balls and slowly consuming them.
Perhaps these things were not excrement, but food that the rocky mountain prepared for their young?
And here, it seemed that it was possible to find the path to the prison.
Some of Lin's miniature pompom were now stuck on the back of one of the young creatures. There were many passages in the caves under the rocky mountain that led to other places, and Lin found that these young creatures would walk around in these passages.
The young creature that Lin was now sticking to chose a passage that led downwards. After going down more than ten meters, Lin found that the young creature had arrived near a … river.
This seemed to be an underground river, and a liquid that might or might not be water flowed in front of the young creature. Lin also saw many other rocky mountain creatures here.
They were lying in the river and swaying their bodies, and Lin found that when they swayed in the river, pieces of things would fall off from their bodies.
They couldn't be … shedding their shells, right?
This behavior was very similar to that of a multicellular organism. They seemed to need the power of water to help them shed their shells, and … Lin felt that these shells might be one of the food sources of the 'long legs' on the plains.
This was because Lin had examined the composition of the young creatures' shells before, and the composition of these rocky shells was very similar to the mud-like food that the long legs ate.
Lin speculated that after shedding their shells in the water, the shells would soften due to the water, and eventually turn into a mud-like substance, and follow the river to the plains where Lin came from.
Then, for some other reason, this' mud-like substance 'would reach the surface and be eaten by the long legs.
It was a very strange relationship. The rocky mountain preyed on the whirlwinds, and then fed the excrement to its young. The young creatures shed their shells, and the shells flowed along the river to the plains for the long legs to eat. In the end, the long legs would be preyed on by an even larger whirlwind.
Lin felt that the ecology here had been formed for a long time … at least, it had not been disturbed.
So it was very difficult to find traces of brain spirits in this world.
But now, Lin felt that she just needed to follow her instincts.
Because there were many passages under the rocky mountain, Lin had the miniature pompoms gather together. There were a total of 30 of them, and then they spread out and flew to all the suspicious passages around.
Lin felt that there must be a passage here that led to the deepest part of the creator's prison …
… Just like that, some time passed.
Lin believed that this world also had night, but now, a day had passed on the pompoms, and night had not yet arrived in this world. But that was to be expected, after all, this place was very far away from the stars.
But Lin had already found her target.
There was a miniature pompoms in a passage deep underground, and in front of the pompoms was a metal door.
Finally, she found their underground entrance. The door was circular, and looking at the mechanical structure above it, it was exactly the same as the machines that brain spirits often made.
But there was no gap for the miniature pompoms to enter.
So, Lin planned to let the large pompoms in. Lin planned to enter in a way that would not cause any damage to the rocky mountain or anything else.
This method was very simple. First, the cells of the pompoms would be dissolved, then transformed, and finally, the pompoms would be transformed into a mobile, shapeshifting, slime-like creature.
This way, they could easily enter through the various gaps in the rocky mountain.
But, what should they do after entering? Blast open the door of the brain spirits and enter?
There should be some other way … But, with the spread of the creator's virus, these pompoms might be able to save the creator …
… One of its tentacles or something.
But this way, they could be saved. After all, one of its tentacles could move, and it was relatively 'safe'. Floating astronomy.
