"… Ah …"
In front of Lin's eyes was a creature with the same size as Atlan.
It was lying next to an abandoned square building. It was wearing white armor and crawling on the ground with difficulty.
It was still making sounds, and the sound was transmitted through the speaker installed in the armor.
The armor it was wearing was something Lin had seen in the sand town before, but it should not be called armor. It should be called a 'protective suit'.
In short, it looked like it was about to die.
When the pompom flew to its side, it was already lying on the ground, motionless. It looked like it had fainted …
The pompom pierced several of its fur through the surface of the protective suit, and then checked the creature inside … Lin was also careful not to let the air inside leak out.
So that's how it was. Its current state was mainly due to a severe lack of water and hunger. However, the protective suit's energy was still sufficient, so there was no lack of oxygen or low temperature problems.
Then, it would be easy to solve …
Lin checked the creature's body structure while giving it nutrients. Its structure was basically the same as Atlan's, but it was much weaker in terms of physical strength. For example, its muscles were much weaker, and its body was slightly smaller.
They might not be as good at fighting as Atlan, but they were related to Atlan. As for their memories, Lin only checked the most recent ones. There was also the part about 'language'.
Like Atlan, they had a separate area in their brain that analyzed language. The creature's most recent memory was that it continued to walk on the sand for a long time, and it was almost dead when it finally reached this place.
As for something more profound. Lin thought it would be more interesting to ask about it …
"Ah …"
Just as Lin was thinking about it. It woke up. The moment it woke up, it looked at its own body in surprise. Perhaps it felt strange that it was suddenly not hungry or thirsty …
"Ah ah ah! What is this! " When it raised its head and saw the pompom, it was startled and took a few steps back. Because of the language region detection, Lin could understand what it was saying. It wasn't speaking Atlan, but another language.
"It was you … who saved me?" The creature was not afraid at all. It also came to a conclusion. However, in this situation, it could only attribute its recovery to the creature in front of it.
"It was I who saved you."
"Ah!" The moment the pompom spoke, it was shocked. "You can talk?"
「 I want to know more about your situation 」 the pompom continued: 「 Tell me everything you know, everything 」
"My situation …" It paused for a moment and said, "I'm very grateful to you for saving me, but what do you want to know?"
"Let's start with recent events. For example, why did you come here?"
"The most recent one is …?" It began to recall, then slowly said: "I came here because of that, that is …"
Lin listened carefully. The creature said that it was a member of a group. That group lived somewhere in the desert. Recently, they had been in a very difficult situation.
There was a lack of almost everything here. Oxygen, water, and food. In order to find water, their 'leader' sent out many small teams to search for it, and it was a member of this small team.
However, they ran into a lot of situations along the way, such as sandstorms, sand cave-ins, tornadoes, and so on. It was separated from its team members, lost its way, and came to this place, almost dying.
It seems that it was a very 'normal' experience. Through this, Lin also found out that there were quite a few groups of them living here.
After asking further, the creature said that there were around 100 of them, and that they lived in a small village.
Other than them, there were many other similar groups, but they were all scattered all over the world, only occasionally meeting. If a group of them grew too large in one place, it would easily lead to a lack of resources, so they had to scatter.
It was said that it was for this reason that they didn't live in large groups.
These creatures reminded Lin of 'Se'. Their living conditions were similar, but not completely the same as Se. Se had developed his own technology in the harsh environment of this world.
But they seemed to have developed their own technology from the very beginning.
"Do you recognize this?" A pompom flew in front of the creature and unfurled a picture in front of its eyes. This was the picture of the Roller from before.
"Of course, this is only a legend" the creature replied: "It is said that this is where we used to live"
"Where we used to live …" the pompom doubtfully asked: "Did you leave this place that seemed to be very suitable for you and come here?"
"… Yes, but I don't know the details" The creature stood up and replied: "I haven't learned that part yet. I've been studying our history and legends recently, but our leader knows about these things very well. It is already very old, so you can come with me back to the group"
"Do you know how to return to your group?" the pompom doubtfully asked: "Didn't you get lost?"
"Earlier, there was some interference in the desert that caused the locator to malfunction" the creature poked its helmet and said: "It's no longer a problem, let us depart"
"… Then let's go take a look"
Saying so, the pompom and the creature began their journey.
"Where did you come from? A foreign planet? If I bring you back, my companions will definitely be very surprised! " The creature appeared to be very happy, jumping up and down in front of the pompom while asking questions.
Lin also asked it a lot of questions. This creature was only a young, so it was very curious. Lin's calculation of their physical fitness included adults, so their physical fitness wasn't as good as Atlan's, but it was mainly in terms of strength.
Its stamina was still quite good, even after walking for over 10 kilometers, it didn't show any signs of fatigue.
At the same time, its group appeared in front of Lin's eyes. In the distance, Lin saw a bunch of familiar buildings.
They were almost identical to the ones that were dug out from the sand, and there were many similar creatures around the buildings. Lin even saw some vehicles that looked like dune buggies.
It was a very rich experience.
"I'm back! Look what I brought back! "
