"Are you alright? That's great! We were worried about you … What did you bring back? "
Under the dusty sky, there was a group of creatures in front of the pompom who were excitedly talking to their young. This made Lin feel a little strange. They seemed to be very concerned about their young. If that's the case, why did they let the young go out to find water?
"This creature saved me!" the cub looked at the furball and said, "Come and get to know everyone!"
"Where is your leader?" The furball floated to the cub's side. Lin looked at the curious creatures and asked the cub.
..
"This furball can talk! Where did it come from? "
The creatures in the surroundings kept talking about the furball, but they didn't seem to be hostile. The cub brought the furball to a building in the distance and said, "It's over there. That's where the leader lives."
When they arrived at the building, Lin took a closer look. The building was almost identical to the ones around it. It was a bucket-shaped building.
Crack!
At this time, the door of the building opened, and a … somewhat special creature walked out from it.
The creatures here were mostly wearing white protective suits, but the one that walked out was wearing a blue protective suit. There was also a special badge hanging on its chest. This must be the leader.
"You are …" The leader was surprised to see the cub and the furball. It looked at the cub and asked, "How did you …"
"It's like this!" The cub was still in a state of excitement as it recounted its encounter with the pompom to its leader. Only then did the leader understand the specific situation and allowed the pompom to enter its house for a detailed discussion.
As for the cub, the leader let it go back to its own house. The cub was very depressed, but there was nothing it could do.
"In other words …"
At this time, in the leader's house, a furball, the leader, and two creatures that looked like the leader's guards were sitting around a table in the middle of the hall. The leader asked the furball, "You saved Puff because you want to know about our situation?"
"That's right." Puff was the cub's name. The furball said, "It's mainly about your history and this."
Saying so, the furball put the picture of the rollers on the table.
"We can tell you our history …" the leader said, "But I also want to know, where did you come from? And what is your civilization like? How do you know our language … and our habits? "
Lin realized. The leader seemed to understand the situation very well.
Previously, when Lin and the cub came here, the residents here would point at the pompom and make all kinds of gestures. The cub would also wave at the pompom as it moved through the desert. These were all their habitual gestures, so it didn't seem like anything special.
But that was only because it didn't seem like anything. This was because a gesture like waving could be an insult or a threat to other creatures, but the residents here did not seem to understand it, except for the leader.
It saw that the pompom had not made any gestures so far, and it knew that it might cause problems. However, it also noticed that the pompom did not seem to care about the actions of the other residents, which meant that the pompom might know them very well.
Knowing this, the leader was obviously very suspicious of the pompoms.
However, it didn't seem like it had any 'right' to be suspicious, because they were already like this …
"I can tell you where I came from" the furball said, "but you have to tell me your history first."
"…"
The leader hesitated.
Lin noticed that it seemed to be thinking about something, even though the two guards next to it appeared confused. But they didn't say anything.
"Very well …" after a while, the leader told the furball: "Then I'll tell you first … our history."
"That place, we call it 'Ershi'." The leader looked at the picture of the rollers on the table and said, "It's where we used to live a long, long time ago."
"A long, long time ago?" the furball asked, "How long exactly?"
"That I don't know …" the leader replied, "We used to keep records of the year and year, but that record was cut off at some point. After that, the year was recalculated."
"However, we still have some old information … I can show it to you now."
Saying so, the leader turned around and went into a room at the back. After a while, it came out with a metal plate.
This thing … seemed to be the imaging device used by the Voidfolk. It couldn't project a three-dimensional image, but the image was displayed on the plate.
However, the clarity was quite good. A lot of information appeared on the plate, and the leader adjusted the information about their past.
"You … also recognize our language, right?" when the furball took a closer look. The leader suddenly asked the furball.
"I do," the furball replied simply, then looked at the plate …
"We used to live on 'Ershi'." Although the furball said that it recognized them, the leader still started talking, "At that time, we had a highly developed civilization, but later …"
Later, these creatures came here, and the information on the plate was very detailed.
Back then, they lived quite well in their original world, 'Ershi'. Lin saw a lot of pictures of the situation at that time, and it was very similar to the city of Atlan that Lin had seen before.
Lin noticed some of the information on the plate, their technology was lower than the Voidfolk, and it was difficult for them to even go up into the void, so they were much worse than Atlan.
After all, Atlan was quite good at traveling through the void, although they were forced to do so.
These creatures lived quite well, similar to the Voidfolk … until a certain time, something … happened.
"On that day, a notice was issued to the entire world, saying that a great disaster was about to happen."
The next information that Lin saw was about the disaster, saying that the earth's crust would undergo a drastic change, and the ice and snow in the ocean would melt, drowning most of the land.
At that time, a plan was made, and that was the plan to escape. In fact, the disaster had been discovered a long time ago, and this plan had been carried out since a long time ago.
It was the plan to escape into the void.
It was quite similar to the history of Atlan … but this plan was initiated by them.
Although there were many Rollers in this star system, not many of them were suitable for living. The most suitable place was determined to be a Roller near 'Ershi', which was here.
There was another target, which was the satellite of 'Ershi', but it was said that it was not as suitable as this place.
Of course, it was only suitable relatively speaking. This place was filled with violent sandstorms all day long, so it was not suitable for these creatures … It was better to stay in the original world that was flooded, and it felt that life would be easier.
However, they still decided to leave just like that.
In fact, they had a very thorough plan at that time. Lin saw from the information that a large number of things were prepared for their departure, such as a large aircraft, many technologies, plants, and so on. At the same time, there were also many professionals with many technologies.
After they arrived, they planned to transform this place into a very comfortable world. They believed that some plants and animals were suitable for growing in this place, and these creatures would multiply here on a large scale, and soon the entire world would be transformed into a comfortable place.
For this, they prepared a large number of technologies and technicians, as well as many very famous' scholars', and there were a lot of introductions on them.
However, the leader of this place said that its knowledge of these people was limited to the information. As for the truth, it had never heard of these famous people doing anything.
That was because after they arrived here …
Indeed, they didn't do anything.
At that time, they prepared a lot of information and selected a large number of technicians, as well as some 'very important' people, and let them take the aircraft to this place.
There were a total of ten aircraft that came here. According to the description of the information, they seemed to be quite large, hundreds of meters in length, and were pieced together in the void. However, because of technical problems, it took a long time to piece together, and there was no time to do any tests.
After the completion, all the creatures were sent to the aircraft, and the plan began before the disaster happened.
Of the ten aircraft, nine were used to carry goods and creatures, and one was an automatic factory. It was used to produce all kinds of things suitable for living.
At first, they thought that everything was ready, but the process did not go smoothly …
After flying here, two aircraft crashed due to malfunctions, and several aircraft encountered some problems when landing, causing most of the crew members to be injured.
However, many of the crew members survived, including the Automatic Factory aircraft, which was not damaged.
While they were carrying out the plan, they also let the automatic factory begin to produce all kinds of things. The first thing that was produced was … the bucket-shaped building that Lin saw now.
They first lived in the aircraft, and later, when the bucket-shaped building was completed, they slowly began to live in these buildings. These buildings allowed them to live comfortably in dangerous environments.
Of course, the factory could produce more than just this kind of building, it could also produce a lot of things. As long as there were enough resources, it could even create a city.
However, that was only an ideal situation … (To be continued.)
