"You're saying … it's the one that was assassinated?"
"… That's right."
Lin's Mechanical Octopus was currently in its room with Rosalie.
Just now, Lin repaired the octopus's injuries here. As for Rosalie, she was treated here. Although she was heavily injured, she was still alive.
As for the Void Bus cub they encountered in the library, it was nowhere to be found. But Rosalie said … it knew this cub.
So Lin felt that it was necessary to continue looking for this cub, because it said that this cub was assassinated.
The assassination of the Void Bus was also recorded, but the captor hid this information very well. Only those creatures who were dedicated to investigating this matter could discover this information.
The captor hid this information on purpose for these creatures to look for it, but it seemed that only Rosalie was willing to investigate this.
After reading the information, Rosalie recorded the appearance of the Void Bus cub in the information into its armor. That was why when it saw the cub in the library just now, it recognized it because the armor gave it a hint.
Lin had seen this cub in her memory, but it was a bit blurry.
According to Rosalie, it seemed that from that time until now … this cub hadn't grown at all. Generally speaking, a cub from that time until now would have grown into a sphere.
But this cub was still in the shape of a starfish. There was obviously something wrong with its body, although it didn't send out any signals that would cause the creatures around it to go crazy.
It was said that it had been hiding somewhere to be treated. Perhaps the captor thought that it had been cured a long time ago, but because the cub never grew up, they let it live in the warship.
After a long time, when the war began, the cub was affected again, but this time, it was Lin who treated it, but not completely.
Although it fell into a state of confusion after being hit by the cube, after a while, it wanted to attack the Mechanical Octopus and Rosalie again.
But at that time, Lin and Rosalie had already escaped from the library's lower level. On the way back, they were chased by the cub.
Although the Mechanical Octopus was mostly damaged at that time, it still had some spare thrusters that could fly, and Rosalie had also recovered her ability to move, plus the narrow environment wasn't suitable for the cub to move. So, they managed to escape.
Although she had escaped, Lin immediately wanted to find it again.
After all, if it was the cub that was assassinated, then it must be a very important character, but it was not that easy to catch it.
It had to be at least as big as it. Therefore, Lin decided to experiment with a new type of soldier.
For a very long time, almost all of Lin's units had cells inside them. Even when firing bombs, Lin would place a lot of cells inside to observe various things.
But was it possible to create a troop class that had no cells but could be controlled by 'consciousness'?
Lin felt that this was possible, but she hadn't fully figured out how to do it yet … Lin felt that she should conduct some tests. Perhaps it would be difficult to directly use her consciousness to control non-cellular things, but Lin felt that she could still use some methods to do so.
After telling Rosalie that she wanted to continue exploring, Lin bade farewell to Rosalie, who was still healing, and let the mechanical octopus enter the corridor.
There were many pieces of debris floating around the corridor. Lin let the mechanical octopus move and used its tentacles to wrap around the fragments for testing.
The main test subject was the armor of various creatures.
Right now, Mini Susumi, who was controlling the octopus, was mainly connected to the connector that connected to the camp in the world.
So as long as she touched the connector and entered the dream, Lin would be able to see a very long passage, just like the one in the mayor's mind, which was connected to a very distant place.
Lin felt that as long as she created some mechanical units and injected dream energy into them, she would be able to control them from a distance, similar to how Brainwave controlled them.
This seemed quite simple. However, she hadn't found any suitable materials yet, and the materials here weren't suitable to be used as a control core.
The control core needed materials that could retain dream energy, but some armors had some materials mixed in.
Lin used the mechanical octopus's internal structure to break down these materials and then reconstruct them. But there were very few of them, so she needed more.
Perhaps that place could be used?
With that in mind, Lin returned to the room and adjusted the entrance to connect to the place where the Void Rock was collected.
Then, when she left the entrance, Lin saw the cave environment from before. There might be more materials in these rocks.
However. There seemed to be some strange creatures here as well.
The mechanical octopus was now moving to the moving point, and there was something that was constantly wriggling about 10 meters in front of the moving point.
It looked like a lump of … meat growing on the ground, about 2 meters tall. What exactly was this thing?
Looking at it, Lin suddenly remembered the viscera-like thing that the bug used to attract the swollen monster last time.
Perhaps that viscera was related to this lump of meat. Could it be that this was also a mutated creature?
But it didn't look like a mutated creature at all, instead, it looked like it … grew out of the ground.
It didn't seem to be a threat. Lin slowly approached it and touched the surface of the lump of meat with her tentacles to examine it.
The composition of the lump of meat … was very similar to the … gel creatures that Lin was familiar with.
They were the gel creatures that floated in the Void Rock. Why would they appear here?
And they didn't seem to have any abilities, just wriggling on the ground. But Lin was certain that they weren't mutated creatures.
There was a slight possibility that this rock was' caught 'by a captor from a place like the Void Rock, so there were gel creatures inside.
And the gel creatures might have been too far away from their group, so they didn't have intelligence and could only carry out some simple activities.
Lin guessed that was probably the case. Anyway, she ignored them for now. Lin floated to the bottom of the rock wall and began to examine the composition of the rock …
Sure enough, the rocks here were mixed with many components, many of which could be used to create things that could carry dream energy.
She only needed to create a core that could carry dream energy as a control system. As for the other parts, she would make them into ordinary mechanical structures.
As long as it was big enough or there were enough of them, she would be able to catch the Void Rock that wouldn't grow up, and then …
'Rumble …'
As Lin was collecting materials from the rock wall, she noticed that the lump of meat behind her was acting strangely. It was beginning to … change into a certain shape. (To be continued.)
