"I haven't interacted with them that many times. I only managed to contact them by chance …"
"In reality, they won't help us in our journey or anything that our race has done … they'll only occasionally pay attention to our journey."
"You're asking me where they want us to travel to? I don't know either. I only know that they want us to keep traveling and never stop. "
"But I think that even if we stop, they won't care. They won't interfere with us in any way, and of course, they won't help us. The only reason they're called 'gods' is because they helped us … evolve."
"They told me that they were the ones who taught our ancestors how to use all kinds of technology, taught us language … and placed our ancestors on a giant flying machine so that we could leave our original world. The reason was that the original world was about to undergo a great change."
"I don't know what happened in the past … but since then, our race has been drifting in the Void. We've encountered many things and dangers, but our numbers kept increasing, and we've also built larger warships."
"During this time, those 'gods' didn't help us at all, and there are no records of them appearing."
"You're asking me how I managed to contact them? I've looked into the past records and found some ways to contact them … "
"We've been living in the Void, but as you know, the Void isn't a place suitable for long-term living. It's uncertain whether we can find resources or food."
"That's why we ended up here. We stepped into the trap of this so-called 'platform'. Our race has been developing for so long. We've almost been completely destroyed here. "
…
"I see. That's basically what I thought."
They were in a place inside the civilization platform. Beside the sealed teleportation organ, Lin's Rock Spider was having a conversation with Traveler.
Lin had Traveler explain their understanding of the gods and their history.
This history was almost identical to Atlan's. Now, they could confirm that the 'god' liked to do this. Perhaps it specifically found this kind of developing race and taught them a bunch of technology. Then, it let them live a life of constant travel in the Void.
Whether one could survive in the Void had a lot to do with luck. According to Traveler's introduction, they had very powerful detection technology and could find the nearest resource point from far away. However, resources were usually floating in the Void. Their civilization had only been to a few Rollers over a long period of time. Moreover, these Rollers had no living creatures, and the environment changed drastically, so it was not suitable for them to stay for long.
However, their energy technology allowed them to obtain resources for a long time, and the rate of depletion was quite slow. If there were no accidents …
But they could not last forever. And they had no teleportation technology.
That was why they came to this place …
The life of a traveler seemed interesting, but why did the gods do it? Why do they allow these creatures of character to travel about?
Moreover, according to the traveler, the gods seemed to ignore them after they started their journey. No matter what danger they encountered, they would not save them.
But since God had kept a way to contact them, it was probably for these creatures to only contact them after they had completed something.
But what kind of Traveler?
Traveler, Traveler, Traveler …
"I seem to have said a lot …"
Now, Traveler was confused. It said so much because of the Rock Spider's brainwaves. Under normal circumstances, it would not have said so much to a strange creature like the Rock Spider.
"You … why do you want to know about us?" Now that it was not affected by the brainwaves, Traveler, who was slowly recovering, asked, "Also, why are you here? What is your purpose? And … "
Lin interrupted it. "I'm not telling you."
"You …" Traveler was stunned. "I've told you so much. Are you not going to say anything?"
"Yes."
Lin felt that there was no point in talking to it. There was nothing else to do here. She just needed to study the creatures here and then focus on something else …
"Forget it … Let's not talk about that for now!" Traveler suddenly shouted. "I still have many things to do."
Then, it walked toward the teleportation organ in the center of the room.
The Rock Spider asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Of course … I want to blow up this place!" Traveler shouted as it took out some small things from its fur. "I want it to know that there is a price to pay for destroying our species!"
"I see." The Rock Spider looked at the teleportation organ that was beating like a heart. There were many spherical objects placed under the organ. They should be the bombs that Traveler had placed there.
"How many of these things did you place here?" The Rock Spider crawled over to study the spherical objects. Lin had seen these spherical bombs before … They were similar to them.
They should be powerful enough to blow up this teleportation organ.
"I placed bombs in all the important parts," Traveler said. "They will definitely deal a heavy blow to this world. As long as I blow up some important parts, there will be problems with its overall operation."
"You don't know what these parts are for?" Lin asked. "You blow them up just because they look important?"
"Of course, I …" Traveler paused. "Of course, I know. This is a … Why am I telling you so much? If there is no conflict of interest between us, please leave! I want to do my own thing. "
"Of course there is a conflict," Lin said. "You shouldn't blow this place up."
"What?" Traveler was shocked. "You want to stop me? Why? "
"Because this place is more interesting."
"Interesting …" Traveler did not seem to understand what that meant, but it quickly said, "This is a huge trap! If we leave it like this, it will continue to destroy everything that gets close to it. The fleet … This is the nightmare of all the creatures that pass by this place … "
"Isn't that normal?" Lin replied: "This is just pure hunting behavior"
Traveler said, "… Looks like you don't understand me. Of course …"
"I understand you very well, you're only angry because your species was eaten by it and want revenge" Lin told him: "That's not important, where did you place the bombs?"
"You want to stop me … and you want me to tell you where the bombs are?" Traveler was in disbelief. "I really don't understand … your thoughts."
"If that's the case, I'll just take a look."
If it was something that went against its mind, it would not be able to use brainwave to influence it to say it, but it was easy to look at its memory.
"What are you doing?" Traveler was on guard. It took a few steps back and then suddenly jumped. Fire burst out from its feet, and its body shot out from the room like a missile.
It was quite fast. It seemed that there were many things hidden under its long fur.
However, it could not escape.
However, Lin felt like the defense of this subspecies platform was not strong. At least, it was too weak to deal with intruders.
For example, Traveler could easily move around and place bombs. Perhaps the platform did not have the ability to observe its own body like the Star Bus.
Lin even suspected that its intelligence was low and that it did not have the ability to communicate with foreign species …
But that did not stop it from forming an interesting environment inside its body.
Thinking of this, Lin ordered the Rock Spiders to spread out. The Rock Spiders that were in the teleportation organ were still there.
These bombs … were all timed.
If it was remote-controlled, it would be harder to deal with. But why did it have to be timed?
It would be easy to disassemble them like this …
… Just like that, some time passed.
Lin had already found the locations where the five bombs were placed. They were all beside some operating mechanical structures, and they were all timed. Lin removed them all.
At the same time, a Rock Spider found the escaped Traveler.
"It's over."
This was a spacious passageway. Behind the traveler was a circular metal door, and the Rock Spider was right in front of it.
"You caught me …" Traveler looked at the Rock Spider and said, "I can't escape. The energy of the propeller has been used up, and you found a few locations where I placed the bombs."
"But … do you think I've only placed so few?" Traveler suddenly laughed. "I still have a lot of places to place them! You can witness the destruction of this place now! "
"…" Ten seconds passed.
"What's going on?" Traveler was shocked. "Why is there no reaction? It should have exploded! "
"Because the signal is disrupted," Lin said. Lin said: "Part of your bombs are timed, while the other part is remotely controlled, but that's meaningless, it's very easy to stop them"
"… Then kill me." The Traveler was lying on the ground. His mood seemed to have reached its lowest point.
"No, you can still do something."
The Rock Spider walked over and poked Traveler. Traveler fell asleep. At the same time, Lin checked Traveler's brain to see its memory and body structure …
This was …
Lin realized that Traveler might be a creature she was familiar with from before. Floating astronomy.
