Boom!
When the sound of the explosion was heard, all the creatures were shocked.
"Could it be … it's already under attack?"
Atlan looked at the flashing light on the screen. His terrified voice was shaking. Even though it was only one of the thousands of aircraft that had exploded, this was enough to engrave a great fear into his mind.
On the other hand, the other creatures did not seem to be that afraid. They looked at the screen with confusion. One of them said, "Is there really a fight?"
"What? Can't you see it? " Atlan said immediately. "One of the aircraft has exploded. This means it's under attack!"
"But, it's only one …" The creature said. "We can't be sure …"
Boom!
Before it could finish its sentence, a second explosion rang out.
On the screen, the aircraft next to the point of explosion also exploded. Even though the light from the explosion was not very big, the sound of the explosion was heard all over the place.
Obviously, the explosion in the void outside was silent, but the sound was played here. That meant … the captor was playing this sound for the creatures here to hear.
The creatures here did not seem to care too much about these problems. They were already filled with shock because they saw the aircraft on the screen explode one after another.
These explosions started to spread from the initial point of explosion to the surroundings. The surrounding aircraft started to explode one after another.
The continuous explosions echoed here. The flashes of the explosions started to spread rapidly across the entire screen …
Every explosion lit up the screen. This made the creatures here even more terrified.
"We … should …" Among the shocked creatures, Atlan was the first to speak. Atlan was the only one who recovered quickly. He immediately shouted into the communicator, "What did you see outside?"
"Those aircraft … are under attack!" Bug's voice came through. "But I can't see what's attacking them. It's like … they exploded on their own!"
"It's the same as what we see here … Now we must … Have it!" As he spoke, Atlan noticed the creatures holding the camera equipment.
"Everyone, pay attention!" Atlan immediately walked to the camera equipment and shouted, "Look! The war has already begun. What are you waiting for? Come quickly and ask the captor to let us leave this place! You should have seen it already. There's no time now! "
"Yes! We must continue protesting! "
The creatures here seemed to have woken up as well. Looking at the screen that was exploding continuously, they screamed together.
Atlan continued to speak to the camera, and his words seemed to have some effect. Lin noticed that a group of creatures had appeared at the location of the moving point.
"We want to join too! We don't want war! "
The creatures that appeared here were the ones that they had seen in the meteorite excavation site. Although they didn't seem to care about it before, they were now very nervous and joined the protest group.
"That's right, we need to gather more creatures!" Atlan was not as scared as before when he saw more creatures joining the fray. It continued to speak in front of the device, "Hurry up, all the creatures here, if you don't want to die, join us!"
While it was speaking, a few more creatures appeared at the moving point and joined the team.
But even if there were more creatures yelling in front of the screen now, it was still not enough. There was still no response from the captor.
"Those captors are too strange. There's no reaction at all. " The Scholar stood next to the moving point and looked at the screen. "But they showed them the image of the outside world. What are they thinking? And … "
"What on earth is attacking those flying machines?"
The aircrafts on the screen did not see anything approaching, but they continued to explode as if they were self-destructing.
Now, hundreds of aircrafts had been destroyed, and the explosions were still spreading rapidly. The originally crowded aircrafts on the screen had become sparse.
"What do you want! Hurry up and give us some response! " Atlan would occasionally turn to look at the screen, and when he saw that the number of aircrafts was decreasing, he became even more panicked.
But Lin noticed. No matter how panicked the creatures here were, they did not attack the wall. It was as if they were used to not attacking under any circumstances.
But Lin felt that attacking was a better way to contact the captor …
Boom!
There was another explosion. Half of the aircrafts on the screen had disappeared. At the same time, more and more creatures gathered here. They kept yelling in front of the screen, trying to attract the attention of the captors.
"Why … Why are they ignoring us!" Atlan watched as the number of aircrafts on the screen decreased. He no longer cared about the camera and rushed to the wall, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Hurry …"
"Rosalie!" Before Atlan could shout, Bug's voice came through the communicator. "It … It's coming! It's coming! One of the aircrafts that was very close to it exploded! "
It exploded very close to it?
That seemed to be the case. Lin also noticed that one of the aircrafts at the edge of the screen had exploded. Although the screen did not show the warship, the aircrafts at the edge should be very close to it.
"Don't panic!" Atlan said. "You have to continue observing from above and report everything as soon as possible. The warship has a layer of protection!"
"But … It's coming!" Bug's voice sounded very panicked. "It exploded again! It's about to … "
Boom!!!
Before Bug could finish speaking, the entire room shook. Many creatures were shaken and fell to the ground.
"Help! Ahhh! It's here! Run! Run! "
The group of creatures crawled up in fear and rushed to the teleport point. One by one, they disappeared in the light.
"Don't run! This is the warship, where can you run to? " Atlan saw this and quickly shouted, "We still have a chance, let the captor give us the aircrafts to escape!" As he spoke, he looked at the screen and said, "Hey! Did you hear that? You … "
Pa!
The image on the screen suddenly disappeared, and the entire room was plunged into darkness. Only the light from the teleport point shone on the lifeless figures of the creatures.
"Ahhh!" The few remaining creatures screamed as they scrambled towards the teleportation point. The Atlan called Rosalie remained where she was. She did not move at all, as if she was completely stunned.
"We …"
The Scholar wanted to say something, but Lin said, "Go to the library, before this place is destroyed, at least we'll know more."
"… Okay!" The Scholar did not hesitate for too long. She glanced at Atlan and stepped into the teleport point.
"You want to go to the library?" Atlan suddenly reacted and said, "I can … show you the way."
As it spoke, it walked over and touched the Scholar's disk with its own disk, then said, "The route I know has been transmitted to your device, no matter what you want to do, go … Go do one last thing."
After that, it walked back to the screen and stared blankly.
"… You're not going?" The Scholar looked at Atlan with a strange expression.
"What's the use of going?" Atlan said, "Go quickly, or you might not even be able to teleport later."
"… Okay." The Scholar heard that and walked into the teleport point.
Boom!
The moment she entered the teleport point, the surroundings shook violently again, and the Scholar arrived at the excavation site.
The creatures in the excavation site seemed to have all run away, and there was only a ground full of gravel and some digging tools left.
There were many teleport points here, and after looking at the map, the Scholar quickly ran to the farthest one.
"This should be …"
After the light flashed, the Scholar found that there was a vast area in front of her. There were many large stones here, and the ground was covered in sand. However, this was not a cave environment, and the walls and ceiling on both sides were made of pure white metal.
This was an area called the Hunting Ground, and it was about ten kilometers in diameter. It was quite large, and the terrain was like a desert, with sand and stones everywhere. The food that the creatures here ate mainly came from here.
"The teleport point of the library seems to be a hundred meters ahead …"
The Scholar looked at the map and ran quickly on the sand.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a creature jumped out from the Scholar's side. The creature rushed in front of the Scholar, and the Scholar kicked it and fell to the ground.
"You …"
The Scholar wanted to get up and leave, but when she saw the creature, she was stunned.
Because this was … one of her own kind, which was also a Void.
"You are …" The Void looked at the Scholar and was stunned. She said in disbelief, "There's one of my own kind here … Wait, are you one of my own kind? Or a robot? "
Boom!!!
The sound of the explosion was heard again, and the whole room shook violently and broke into pieces. A huge crack burst open on the ground, and countless grains of sand and stones fell into the crack.
The Void that the Scholar kicked happened to be on top of this crack.
"Ah!"
With a shriek, it fell into the pitch-black crack and disappeared completely.
"… Forget it!" The Scholar looked at the crack and did not continue to care so much. She continued to run in the direction of the library. (To be continued.)
