"It's right there!"
At the moment when the boulder hit, one of the creator's tentacles suddenly stretched out to a position and hit the ground heavily. ※%
This seemingly meaningless action caused an anomaly. The boulder that was rolling down the mountain had strangely deviated from its path. It rolled past the creator without causing any damage.
Lin was now using her dream perspective to see that a glowing object had appeared where the creator's tentacle struck the boulder.
It was … a Core Protector.
Could it be … the Core Protector was controlling the rolling boulder? The creator had sensed the Core Protector's presence at this location, so it struck the spot and affected the Core Protector in the dream.
Lin was very curious about how it affected the Core Protector, because even if the boulder wasn't controlled, it would still hit the creator. But the creator had used some method to force the Core Protector to change the direction of the boulder. Could it have used its brainwaves to affect the Core Protector?
However, this was indeed a place where dreams and reality interacted with each other. If it was a brain spirit's dream, it seemed that nothing in reality could affect it.
Lin sensed a strange emotion coming from the Core Protector. It no longer stayed where it was and instead flew off in another direction. At the same time, the creator also quickly waved its tentacles to climb up the mountain.
Watching the creator climb up, Lin ordered the Rock Spider to follow.
Lin was still wondering how the creator would deal with the next part of the climb, but there seemed to be no more problems.
As the creator climbed up the mountain, no more boulders rolled down. As for the 'Dream Eater' that appeared at the top of the mountain earlier. Also … no one knew why it disappeared.
The creator approached the top of the mountain without any hindrance. The Rock Spider also arrived at the same time.
As they reached the top of the mountain. Lin saw a large pile of … metal fragments in front of her eyes.
These metal fragments were piled up like a small mountain, as if the boulder from earlier was made up of these metal fragments.
"The core creatures gathered these things into a ball in an attempt to stop me from coming here" the creator looked at the metal fragments and said: "But … they failed"
"They control these things, Fluffy" the creator continued: "They put the fragments together …"
"How does it control these metals?" the Rock Spider asked the creator.
"The exact method is unknown, but they can control these metals in their dreams." "Not only can I combine them, but I can also control the rolling of the metal balls … That's why I can use them to stop their own attacks."
"But … the target I'm looking for doesn't seem to be here."
As the creator spoke, he moved his tentacles forward.
The Rock Spider walked beside its creator. He observed his surroundings as he walked. Aside from the piles of metal, there were also many small creatures.
These creatures were rummaging through the metal piles as if there was some food inside.
In the dream, the piles of metal scraps were almost the same as they were in reality. At the same time, he could also see the shadowy 'souls' of these little creatures.
There were many of them and they were densely packed together. However, they should not be creatures with a certain level of intelligence like rugby balls.
"That's where they used to live … Fluffy."
The creator's words caused Lin to look ahead. After walking past these piles of metal, she could see a large number of … buildings.
These buildings should be the ones Se left behind. Their shapes were different from the usual buildings. They were built like … statues of living creatures.
The creator had mentioned this before. Se seemed to like to make buildings this way.
The Rock Spider crawled under the nearest building. This building was mainly made of rock. It was shaped like a large beetle.
It was said that Se liked to make buildings based on the living creatures nearby. However, this habit only appeared after they came here. In the past, they lived in ordinary round or square buildings.
The 'beetle' lay on the ground. Its head was the entrance. After entering through the entrance, they could see that there was a large space inside.
Se's' furniture 'could be seen on the walls on both sides. They were basically fixed to the walls. There were many different shapes, but none of them were placed on the ground.
It seemed that they had different habits from the Voids. Lin felt that Se's smug appearance was more like the Voids, but the difference in habits was quite big.
These furniture had obviously not been taken care of for a long time. They were basically covered in dust. Some of them were even cracked. Did Se just leave these buildings and furniture here and leave?
Lin did not see anything related to mechanical technology here. Although there were piles of metal outside, the buildings were only made of rock and some wood-like things.
They should be made of rocks and materials obtained from the living creatures nearby … Why didn't they make any more machines after coming here? The creator said that the researcher did not mention why.
Lin's three Rock Spiders spread out and observed each of Se's buildings to see if they could find anything interesting. Meanwhile, the creator crawled to the center of these buildings.
The 'festival smoke' in the sky had disappeared. The rugby game had stopped, so the creator had lost its target. Although it had found the place where the Dream Eater first landed, it seemed that there was nothing here. So the creator decided to search for a new target here.
The Dream Eater should be nearby. After all, a Core Protector had appeared.
Lin did not think that there was nothing here. There seemed to be many things to be found in Se's buildings …
Soon, one of the Rock Spiders found something special in one of Se's buildings. This thing seemed to be something that they used to record things.
Furthermore, this was the first time Lin had seen a mechanical device here. Its structure was similar to … something called a 'keyboard'. The Voidfolk also had this thing, but it was a very ancient thing, and the Voidfolk had stopped using it a long time ago.
However, Se's way of using it was different from the Voids. The Rock Spiders poked at it with their forelimbs. Suddenly, the 'keyboard' emitted a strange sound.
It did not sound special in the real world. However, in the dream, a strange smoke could be seen floating up from the keyboard. The smoke slowly changed into various shapes.
This was how Se stored information. The shapes that the smoke changed into were their 'words'.
Se used to use another way of recording information, which was similar to writing. However, after the gods arrived, they used a new way to record information. This kind of information could only be seen in the dream.
Every button on the keyboard corresponded to a different message.
Lin could understand these Se's words. However, she did not know this from the creator. Instead, she knew it from … the spiral creature.
When Lin obtained the spiral creature's memory, she knew that it had a certain understanding of Se, including their words.
Although it used a different recording method, the shape of the words was the same. So, Lin could understand what was written here …
These seemed to be records of prayers.
It seemed meaningless for Se to describe how their 'gods' treated them and how great they were.
However, the 'keyboard' outside had a few hundred buttons. Lin could try each one to see what they were describing.
In this way, Lin let the Rock Spiders quickly test it out.
… Most of this information seemed to be of no value.
After a while, Lin looked at half of the information on the keyboard. Most of it was records of daily life. There were also some prayers for Dream Eaters.
However, she did not see any information about Dream Eaters or what happened to Se …
Lin continued to look at the rest of the information. The rest of the information seemed to be similar.
Why didn't they put any special information here?
However, there was something special about this' keyboard. 'The buttons on it did not jump up after being pressed. It seemed that after pressing it once, the buttons were damaged and stuck on it.
… Perhaps this was …
Lin suddenly had an idea. Thinking about it, Lin quickly pressed all the buttons. After pressing the last one …
'Boom!'
Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from inside the building, and the ground shook.
In the dream, he could see a cloud of … black mist appear where the keyboard was.
The cloud of mist first swayed a few times in the air, then flew in a certain direction. It looked strange, but Lin knew that it was the … researcher.
Lin could feel its emotions.
The creator did not explain the researcher in detail in the end. He only said that it had left. Lin did not ask much, but she did not expect it to appear here.
From the creator's description, Lin knew the researcher's personality, so she could feel its emotions and recognize it. However, she did not expect it to appear here.
Then, she should find a way to communicate with it. Thinking about it, Lin let the Rock Spiders in the dream view send out some … information.
Although the Rock Spiders could see the dream, they could not affect it. However, Lin had learned a special brainwave that could be sensed by dream creatures.
The main thing was that the brain of a creature could cause changes in the dream. The dream here had such a characteristic.
"What?"
The researcher who received the brainwave began to shake. It showed curiosity, but it could not see the Rock Spiders, so it was confused.
But after a few seconds, the researcher showed a look of understanding and said, "You're in the real world? Aren't you that creature from last time … Are you trying to communicate with me? "
"Yes," Lin said to it: "I want to ask you some questions … about Dream Eaters."
