A very long time ago, they had come to this world.
They taught the creatures here and then let them leave …
After that, they also left, but this did not mean that they had forgotten about this world.
They would return … but this time, they would not leave so easily. They might destroy this world.
"This is a legend from the past."
The creature known as the Illusion told Lin this, and Lin also saw something related to it in its memories.
Although the description of this legend was vague, but with a little guess, it was a legend related to Atlan.
Other Ershi residents might not have seen what happened to Atlan in the past, but the Illusion had records related to it, and it also said that the things that made Atlan leave would return.
In other words, those micro-machines … would return to this place?
The Illusion believed that Lin was one of those micro-machines that returned … but after chatting with Lin for a while, it found that Lin did not fit the description, so it slowly believed that Lin was not one of those micro-machines.
These legends were mainly recorded by some of the Illusion's species in the past, but when they accepted a mission from Ershi recently, they also mentioned it.
It mentioned that after the micro-machines returned, they would not go to Mars. At most, they would observe the original location of Ershi and then leave.
They would not stay for too long, and they were not interested in the other tumblers in this galaxy.
Of course, they did not call those things' micro-machines', but had another name … but Lin would just call them 'micro-machines'.
Through this, Lin also knew when Atlan was born. When they were born, other Ershi residents had already appeared.
However, almost none of them had seen Atlan at that time, because Atlan was on an island. But it was said that some Ershi residents had seen Atlan and then turned their story into a legend.
But Atlan left soon after. And then they became an eternal legend. Even if they returned to Ershi later, no one would think that they were the old Atlan.
Then, everything was clear now. Although there was no explanation, it seemed that the 'collapse' was caused by the micro-machines.
But, did they have the ability to kill a Star Bus?
In short. Now that the Star Bus had left … they might need to find the Star Bus to understand the situation.
"Now you know everything, right?"
Inside the small plane, Huan said to Lin, "So what do you plan to do? Do you want to stop the development of the Rock Crust civilization? "
Although it now believed that Lin was not a miniature machine, it still believed that Lin was very dangerous …
In fact, it seemed like all the residents of Ershi thought the same way. Just like the Voidfolk, the alien creatures in their various movies and TV series were always hostile to their world and then invaded them.
The Voidfolk would always use various methods to defeat the alien creatures. Usually, it was a hero, the main character in a movie, that played a huge role, while the army was just a support. That hero used all kinds of wonderful moves on the battlefield … and defeated the alien creature.
Of course, when the brain spirit had invaded them, Lin hadn't seen any heroes on the battlefield. If one were to talk about true heroes … the general was probably one.
However, there was a limit to what it could do.
Interestingly, the alien creatures in the movies and TV series would always use some wonderful reasons to invade. For example, they liked the polluted environment created by the Voidfolk and wanted to live there, or to mine the minerals there, or to capture them as slaves.
However, the alien creatures they encountered didn't use these reasons to invade them. Instead, they used these reasons to invade the Pompom.
This feeling was very interesting. They couldn't figure out the reasons for other creatures to invade them, the Voidfolk could only imagine … the reasons for their invasion.
This Huan's thinking … was similar to that of the Voidfolk.
"Why do I have to do this? Why do I have to cause harm to you? "
When Lin asked this question, it fell silent. Then it told Lin many reasons, similar to the ones in the movies and TV series. It even told Lin that it needed the water and food here.
After hearing these reasons, Lin understood. It seemed that the residents of Ershi had used many similar reasons to invade many … non-human targets.
Huan didn't have any special personality, this could be seen from its memory. This creature's personality was very simple, but it was easily influenced by its observation target.
If it kept observing a group of Ershi residents, its personality would become similar to that of the Ershi residents. Therefore, the things it said were the thoughts of a normal Ershi resident.
"I won't do anything to you," Lin said. "Now, I plan to go check on your companions."
"What?" It was shocked. "I don't have any companions! They are all dead! "
Lin ignored its scream. Instead, she had the pompom let go of its plane and swam towards a certain direction of the underground cave.
In its memory, Lin saw that there were many of its kind hiding nearby. They were a small group, gathering under the water …
That was the location.
After swimming for a while, Lin saw the place where they gathered … Lin saw a large rock appear before her.
The rock was about 10 metres tall and there were many … entrances on its surface. There were also some machines wandering around it.
Most of the machines were about 10 centimetres in size. The moment the pompom appeared, they all stopped moving and turned to face the pompom.
However, the moment they did that, the pompom disappeared before them …
They seemed to be quite surprised, and all the machines immediately began to swim around, as if trying to find traces of the pompoms.
However, the pompom had already flown to the rock. Lin then began to investigate the inside of the rock …
This time, there was no need for Lin to communicate with them. She only needed to observe them. Lin had the pompom release a large number of miniature soldiers into the rock.
Inside … as expected, this was where they mainly lived. The inside of the rock was filled with complicated passageways and many rooms.
It felt like a mini … building.
There were about 100 plus illusions living inside. With the large number of machines they created, they were able to maintain their lives here. As expected, their main source of food was the microorganisms in the water.
Their main task was to maintain the ecological balance in the water. At the same time, they also had to monitor the life of the rock skins …
They appeared to be quite skilled, but they had no intention of developing themselves here. Instead, they were faithfully carrying out their tasks.
Their specific thoughts … were the same as well.
Lin checked the brains of some of the illusions. Their memories were similar to the one Lin caught. There was no useful information.
However, Lin felt that some of them would know more.
For example, the elder.
There was always an elder in their group. Usually, the elder was responsible for accepting tasks from Ershi.
However, the elder here had not accepted any tasks from Ershi. It was a newly selected one. The previous one had died.
Soon, Lin found it … the elder was in a room in the center of the rock.
Unbeknownst to it, Lin's miniaturized troopers quickly began to examine its brain … and the memories within were subsequently displayed.
So that's how it is … this elder did know more than the others.
However, it was not a lot because it was selected here. It had never 'spoken' to Ershi before.
However, it had inherited some information that only the elders of the past knew.
Every elder would 'pass down' something to the next elder. Before the next elder was selected, the other illusions would not look at the information.
As expected, they were quite … loyal.
The information that the elder knew … was their final mission.
During the mission, the illusions had to help the rock skins and observe their growth. When they grew to a certain extent …
The illusions would commit suicide.
Would they really carry out such a mission?
However, from the looks of the illusions, they would indeed carry out such a mission. They did not have any 'opinions'.
In the information, Lin also saw some descriptions of Ershi … it seemed that the illusions did not worship Ershi as a 'god'. They did not doubt anything Ershi did. It felt like …
Lin felt that the illusions and Ershi might have a relationship similar to that of a division of labor.
Although they had their own thoughts, they mainly listened to the orders of the mother. If they worshipped Ershi as a god, there would be doubters. The illusions would not have such a situation.
It was similar to the relationship between the brain-creating monsters and the mastermind of the Atte race.
If they lost Ershi, would the illusions become strange like the brain-creating monsters?
Lin felt the need to take a look …
At the same time, Lin also found in the information …
It seemed that the 'collapse' did not only affect Ershi's location. There were other places that had similar phenomena.
There was also the possibility of it happening in other galaxies …
If it happened in other places, wouldn't it cause a considerable … disaster?
However, the information did not describe the specific location … After all, there was no need to care about other places. However, Lin was very concerned and had to investigate. (To be continued.)
