"We're almost at the place where we live."
This place was … an indoor space.
The Scholar was following the bug-like creature as it slowly moved forward.
Compared to the path in front of it, the Scholar was more interested in the scenery on both sides. The walls around it were made of transparent material.
Although it looked like glass, it had a different feeling to the touch. It was like the surface of a bubble, full of elasticity but also full of toughness. It could not be pierced.
Behind the transparent wall was a very spacious space. The ground was covered with a soft, jelly-like substance, and on top of that substance was a behemoth with many 'limbs'.
This was also the Void Bus's whelp.
However, it was a very small one. Its body was not yet spherical, and it could not fly. It had a diameter of tens of meters, lying on the jelly-like substance as it slowly moved.
"This is their living area." The bug looked at the creature in the transparent wall and said, "They grow here until they can fly. They occupy most of the upper part of the warship, so you can see many of them here."
Looking around, behind the transparent walls on both sides were the living spaces of the Void Bus whelps. Each whelp had a space about 60 meters in diameter, covered with jelly-like substance.
The path the Scholar took was a narrow passage between these spaces.
"These creatures grow very quickly at this stage," the bug said as it walked. "However, after they grow to the state where they can fly, many of them will fly away, leaving only some behind … so the number you see here is not proportional to the number you see on the back of the warship."
"Can they fly away?" the Scholar asked. "If so, why raise so many?"
"I don't know. Probably only when raising a large group will some of them be willing to stay. The captor has very few restrictions on these creatures, so they can move at will …"
As the bug spoke, the Void Bus whelp in the room next to it began to move. It moved to one side of the room's wall. Then, it slowly pressed its whole body against the wall.
As for the transparent wall, it was also pushed to the other side by the pressure. In the end … the entire wall exploded with a bang.
The infant of the Void Bus arrived at the room next to it as well.
This room was empty, but the ground was covered with jelly-like substance, and there was a lot of it.
It seemed that because of this. The whelps wanted to come to this room.
"So, they can move at will?" the Scholar said. "Then these compartments are useless …"
While the Scholar was speaking, she suddenly noticed that the wall that had been crushed by the cub had begun to recover rapidly. Finally, it had become a complete, transparent wall.
"The compartments are mainly for food. Although they look similar, the food in each compartment is different," the bug said. "We're … here."
A flickering area appeared in front of the path.. After the Scholar followed the bug into the cave, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly.
Soon, a new scenery appeared in front of the scholar's eyes. It was also a narrow passage. The width of the passage was only about two meters, but the height was more than ten meters. The walls on both sides were white and looked like they were made of metal.

"Yes," Ying said. "Inside the warship, there is no direct path between each area. It's all done by using these methods. "
"Every movement point has a 'serial number', and as long as you remember the serial number and their location, you'll be able to easily reach anywhere. However, due to the size of the warship, it's not easy to remember all the movement points. In fact, I've only memorized a few of them" Ying said. "This is the area where we'll be staying, follow me"
The Scholar followed the bug. After about a hundred seconds, the bug stopped and turned to look at the wall on the right. "This is your room … Touch it."
"Touch?"
The Scholar heard it and went to touch it. Suddenly, the door of the room opened with a click, revealing the space inside.
The room was about twenty meters in length and width, and ten meters in height. It looked very big. There were all kinds of furniture and daily necessities.
Moreover, these daily necessities all looked very similar to the civilization that the Scholar had answered the question about tentacles.
Because that civilization was Lin's imagination, of course, these things were also made according to this imaginary civilization.
Lin found it very strange that the furniture here were all physical objects that she had imagined.
Although they were not exactly the same, they were very close …
"They …" The Scholar was surprised to see the furniture here. "How did the captors … make these things … so suitable for me? Is that question … "
"It's just as you think," the bug said. The bug said, "After they finish asking you questions, they will begin to synchronize the creation of a room suitable for you. Even if you only answer a few things, or if you only answer about weapons, they will still calculate, judge, simulate, and create things that suit you based on the information of the civilizations that live here and your information. "
"Although sometimes they don't fit perfectly, these can be changed," the bug said. The bug said, "So every living creature will have a space that suits them."
"Just based on the size of this space …" the Scholar said. "I don't think they need to capture. Many … creatures will just want to live here."
"They seem to have some special criteria for capturing, but I'm not too sure about that," the bug said. The bug said, "If a creature commits any 'foul' behavior, they will destroy everything in the room while dealing with that creature."
"Illegal …" The Scholar thought of the creature that attacked her earlier.
The bug continued. "Yes, just remember not to break the rules. Then, you can go in first. Because this is something that suits you, I can't introduce it to you. You can go in and learn about it yourself. If you have any questions, you can use this to contact me …"
As it said that, it handed the Scholar a one-centimeter round object. Just as the Scholar was about to ask, the round object beeped and a 3D image popped out.
The image showed the bug's appearance.
"Seems like this method of communication is … easy to understand," the Scholar said. "Thank you. I'll stay here and learn about it myself."
"No need to thank me. This is my job," the bug said. The bug said, "Remember, don't hurt any target … That's all, except for food."
After that, the bug turned and left. The Scholar looked at its back for a few seconds before turning back and stepping into her room.
Click! The door to the room closed automatically the moment she stepped in.
"This place really suits me …" The Scholar Walker looked around. The room had a bed, a sofa, a carpet, and other common furniture. There was a sparkling crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling. There were also cooking utensils, food storage items, fitness equipment, and so on.
One of the walls of the room was a huge screen like a movie theater. The screen showed the view of the stars, and a large sofa was placed in front of the screen. There were many things that looked like food on the sofa.
If this room was in the world of the Voidfolk, it would be a 'mansion' that normal people could not afford to live in. The Scholar did not expect the hunters to have so much free space to decorate such a large place for their prey.
"This place is much bigger than the place I used to live on the Wanderer." The Scholar walked to the sofa and poked it. "It's really soft. It feels like it's made of jade …"
"You should have noticed," Lin said to the Scholar. "They didn't pay attention to me."
"Yes," the Scholar said. "They didn't ask you any questions at first. Later, when the creature showed us around, it didn't seem to care about you either. It doesn't seem to think of you as a … creature."
"Then let's observe first," Lin said.
"Hmm … What should we look at first?" The Scholar looked around, then sat down on the sofa that was very suitable for the structure of the Voidfolk. She said to the screen in front of her, "This should be able to hold something. I wonder if there's news or something. This way, we can …"
Beep!
Suddenly, the image flashed, and the original view of the stars changed into another image.
"Now, we are going to celebrate the fact that our language has been the main language here for 30 years!"
In the image, a large number of creatures were gathered. In the center was a creature that looked like Atlan. It raised a cylindrical object in its hand and said, "Now, we will hold a banquet here!"
"This is great! Celebrate! Our language is the best! "
They were all using the common language of the Floating Rocks. The creatures here were all cheering when they heard Atlan's words.
"Celebrating language?" the Scholar said. "What are they doing?"
"It seems that language is the main language here," Lin said.
"Is that so? It seems that most of the creatures here are from the Floating Rocks, "the Scholar said." And they seem to be quite happy living here. "
The creatures in the image were in a very open white space. A few of the creatures were operating a strange-looking machine and transporting large amounts of food. The creatures around them were cheering and eating as they took the food.
