Looks like I'll be able to find something interesting here …
Lin's mechanical octopus was currently inside the library, searching for any remaining information in this ruined area.
Although most of this place had been destroyed, there were still quite a few things.
There was something special … that was hidden here.
Lin looked at a pile of things floating in front of her. The pile appeared to be many cylindrical objects.
These cylindrical objects were still intact. They were not damaged in any way and were hidden deep within the library.
The main reason Lin found them was because of … a Bloat Monster.
When Lin was pursuing the slime creature, she extracted a large number of cells from it before it was killed by the Void Bus.
After examining these cells, Lin found that a large number of them were brain cells, but not … the slime creature's brain cells.
Rather, they were the Bloat Monster's brain cells … it seems it would eat the Bloat Monster and not just poke them.
But instead of digesting these brain cells, it stored them away. Lin noticed that these brain cells were all intact. They were all alive and well, and most of them were used to store memories.
Because of that, Lin could detect a lot of information from them. This mechanical octopus had the ability to detect things.
Because there were only a few cells, the memory was incomplete. But she could still find a lot of information, including some information about the creature before it mutated.
Before it became a Bloat Monster, it had come to this library. At that time, the war had already begun. And this place had fallen into a state of zero gravity.
The main reason it came here was to find a way to escape from this place. While it was searching. It found some information related to this war.
It only briefly skimmed through the information before it was forced to leave due to the collapse of this place. Later … for some reason, it mutated into a Bloat Monster.
During the process of transforming into a Bloat Monster, it did not have any special memories. It was as if it was in a 'trance' state.
However, there were no memories of what happened after the transformation. Lin felt that the Bloat Monster would forget its past memories. Although the memories were still stored in its cells, it would definitely not be able to recall them.
Compared to the Bloat Monster … Lin was more interested in the information … the information was the cylindrical objects that Lin had found.
Each of them could be opened by touching them, then the information could be checked through the images that popped up on the surface of the cylinder.
Lin had already opened one of the cylinders. There were some records of … the past. These weren't recorded by the captors, but by some of the creatures that lived here.
It described some of its life here, as well as many other things. Lin noticed that it was mainly talking about … some kind of illness.
…
In the beginning, this was a disease known as' Berserk Outburst Syndrome '.
Its symptoms were that the victim would suddenly go berserk and take off their armor. This problem had been around for a long time.
It would occasionally occur in the creatures that lived here. This disease seemed to have always been a huge problem.
The captors did not heal the creatures here. The creatures here all healed themselves, and there were also places like clinics.
This was because there was a huge difference between the different types of creatures here. Therefore, a large number of doctors from different creatures gathered in the clinic. Usually, the diseases of different creatures would be different, but this disease was exactly the same for all creatures …
And during the treatment process, no … solution could be found.
Lin found that although they had done a lot of tests, they didn't know how it happened because these creatures were normal before this.
And they weren't infected with any virus. All these problems troubled them, so there was no way to treat this disease.
However, it happened very rarely. On average, it happened once every ten pom-poms years, so people didn't pay much attention to it.
However, this disease had increased recently. When the number of cases increased, the creatures here started to pay attention.
Later, after testing, they found that the main reason for the disease was that their cells suddenly changed abnormally.
It was that some structures that didn't exist before suddenly appeared in their bodies, and at the same time, affected their brains, causing these creatures to enter a state of madness.
Of course, this was strange because their cells weren't infected by the virus, so why would there be a mutation?
In the end, because there was no way to treat it, these creatures wanted to ask the captors for help. The captors didn't respond at first, but after they asked more, the captors told them this.
"This is the effect of that thing. It's unavoidable for the time being, but the effect is expected to be over soon."
When the creatures asked when the effect would be over, the captors told them a 'very soon' number, which was around a hundred pom-poms years.
That was quite fast, compared to a hundred thousand pom-poms years …
But these creatures didn't want to wait that long, so they continued to ask for treatment, or asked the captors to help them.
Some of the creatures even asked the captors what was the thing that was affecting them.
The creature that asked this question was also the one who recorded the information Lin was reading. The captors told them … that this was caused by a certain world.
That world was … Water Ball.
This creature continued to ask about Water Ball, and the captors seemed to be … impressed by its curiosity.
But that was what Lin thought. Most of the other creatures were asking for treatment, but this creature was the only one that researched it in depth.
Because of that, the captors answered more questions than the other creatures. Although it wasn't a lot, it was still relatively more.
"Water Ball likes to be modified." This was what the captors said. "They continue to modify everything, always wanting to change everything into a form that they are satisfied with."
"They try to destroy anything that seems to displease them. They believe that everything should satisfy them."
"Some creatures tried to retaliate, but they were all destroyed, while others were modified."
"The objects of their modification are mainly creatures like you."
Lin believed that the captors were talking about cell-like creatures.
"They have been repeating this process, modifying, recording, creating, and continuing to modify."
"Water Ball is their core. That place contains all the … biological content that they have modified and created since the beginning."
"Although they have successfully modified countless things, they are still not satisfied."
"It's not that they are not satisfied with the number of modified things, but they are not satisfied with the method of modification. The modifications in the past took too much … time."
"So, they came up with a new method of modification. They use a more powerful method to modify everything, and your illness is the result of their actions."
This creature didn't quite understand … what the captors meant, so it continued to ask the captors what they meant.
The captor did not continue to explain to it in detail. He only told it that …
"Water Ball must be destroyed."
In the end, these illnesses weren't solved, but this creature at least knew about these things.
Since this creature couldn't get anything out of the captors, it started to investigate on its own.
Because they were still free, they were able to run around and investigate many things.
Later, this creature's investigation led to … the Void Bus.
The captors would often construct various structures and installations on the Void Bus. It had once tried to enter the construction team and boarded a Void Bus.
After the creature boarded the Void Bus, it approached a building on top of it, and on top of that building … it communicated with the Void Bus.
In reality, it wasn't really communication, it was just the Void Bus reacting to some of its words.
For example, when it said something, the Void Bus would use its tentacles to do something. Sometimes, the Void Bus would show some … images.
These images were displayed inside the building on top of the Void Bus. It seemed to be the Void Bus's method of communication. When this creature said something, the Void Bus would show it images.
So this creature used this method to ask the Void Bus a lot of questions …
At first, it asked the Void Bus about the Water Ball. Then, the Void Bus showed it many images of the Water Ball.
These images were mainly of the Water Ball … destroying things that got close to it.
There were also these images in the data. The main content was that all kinds of things were destroyed when they got close to the Water Ball.
Almost all of them … self-destructed in an instant. There was no chance to fight back.
Most of these images were … blurry and intermittent. However, there was one image that was very clear, and there was a continuous and complete process.
It was the image that Lin and the Scholar saw before. It was mainly recorded by this creature.
This creature now knew that the Water Ball was a very scary thing. Then, it continued to ask about the illnesses.
The Void Bus didn't respond to this. It didn't seem to know about these things.
Then, the creature continued to ask about the captors, including why the captors attacked the Water Ball. Most of these things, the Void Bus didn't respond.
But when it accidentally asked about the history of its captors …
