"No! Save me! Save me! "
This was the Skeletal Gnomes' underground city …
Lin had the pompoms create a small pompoms with a diameter of less than 10 cm. She had the pompoms enter the Skeletal Gnomes' main control room.
There were no controllers in the main control room, but the system inside was not damaged and could still be used. Lin was currently using it …
Lin wanted to use the main control room to investigate the thing that activated all the skeletal machinery in the factory, but she had yet to find that thing.
However, she did find something else …..
Lin was currently using the surveillance system to observe a certain area of the city. This area was located near the factory, a place where civilians lived.
Like other civilian residential areas, there were a large number of pillars here. Each pillar could be embedded with dozens of pompoms. All the pompoms embedded in the pillars were residents of this virtual space.
However, there was not a single pompom embedded in the pillars here. They had all disappeared ….. but not completely. Some residents were still alive.
Lin saw three Skeletal Gnomes lying on the ground. She did not know if they were residents of this place, but at least their brains were inside the skeletal machinery and not on the pillars.
However, their current situation appeared to be … … very dangerous.
Twenty meters behind them, there was a swirling … … vortex. It appeared to be made up of countless particles. As it swirled, the objects around it were also being sucked in.
However, there were not many things around it that could be sucked in. The most obvious ones being sucked in were the three Skeletal Gnomes.
"Help!" They were constantly sending out signals for help. As they did so, they kept trying to move on the ground.
However …
"No!" One of the Skeletal Gnomes suddenly sent out a terrified signal. It seemed that because it lost its grip on the ground, its entire body flew up and was sucked into the vortex.
The other two Skeletal Gnomes watched in horror as their companion was sucked into the vortex. They watched as the Skeletal Gnomes' figure disappeared into the swirling vortex.
"Hurry up and escape!" This scene caused the remaining two Skeletal Gnomes to erupt with a stronger … … will to survive. They tried their best to crawl forward. However, the vortex's suction force was too strong. No matter how hard they tried, they could only move forward bit by bit.
Lin felt that this vortex should be the thing that attacked this area.
Looking at it through the surveillance equipment, it felt like a miniature machine, but there were no pompoms nearby. There was no way to investigate immediately, so they needed to leave some … traces.
Lin looked around and saw that the main control room … also included the weapon system. It seemed that every city had a weapon system. No. Not only were there weapons installed, but there were also weapons that could be used by civilians.
Crack! Under Lin's control, the ground beside the two skeletal gnomes crawling with difficulty suddenly opened up.
A small platform rose up from the ground. On top of the platform were two … cylindrical objects.
"What?" The two Skeleton Gnomes also noticed that the ground beside them had suddenly opened up and something had appeared.
"Equip them, you need to use this to counterattack." Lin sent a signal to them, and one of the Skeletal Gnomes immediately responded.
"It's from the main control room!" It said excitedly. "This is the weapon that the main control room sent to us! We can use this to counterattack! "
After it finished speaking, it forcefully moved to the side. Soon, it moved to the side of the open ground and picked up a cylinder from there. It was installed on its forelimbs.
This cylinder was about 30 centimeters long, and was one of the most common weapons of the Skeleton Gnomes. Lin had just taken it out and let the two Skeleton Gnomes use it. The reason why these cylinders were not sucked away when they appeared was because they were fixed on the platform. The Skeleton Gnomes could remove these fixed objects by touching them.
However, one of the two Skeleton Gnomes was still in a daze, so only one of them came over to pick up the cylinder.
One should be enough. After it installed the cylinder, it aimed it at the vortex in the distance.
"Disappear!"
Lin noticed that before it attacked, it had a strong desire for the vortex to disappear. At the same time, the cylinder also let out a strong … roar.
Bang!
The explosion above the vortex caused a large amount of dust and debris to scatter to both sides. The spinning vortex also stopped.
It seemed that the suction force that created it had also disappeared. The two Skeleton Gnomes were now no longer holding on to the ground, but they still did not relax.
Because even though the vortex had stopped, the fragments that formed the vortex were still floating there like a thick fog. They had no intention of dissipating.
"Quick, let's run now!"
The two Skeleton Gnomes did not want to continue fighting. Moreover, one of them did not know how to fight, so they immediately stood up and ran towards the nearest tunnel.
The moment they did so, Lin noticed that the thick fog suddenly surged and rushed towards them.
The Skeleton Gnome with the weapon noticed this and immediately turned around to fire at the incoming fog. When the light of the explosion lit up, the surging fog dispersed, turning into countless fragments that scattered on the ground.
But in the next second, the fragments gathered together again, completely surrounding the two Skeletal Gnomes.
"No!"
This was … their last emotion.
The thick fog drowned them and completely covered their bodies. This lasted for a hundred seconds … When the fog dispersed again, the two Skeleton Gnomes could be seen.
They looked intact, and so did the weapons on their forelimbs. However, they did not move. Lin thought that their brains had been … dug out.
At this time, the thick fog also dispersed. It quickly disappeared from the surveillance camera's range, leaving behind only two … corpses. There were no other traces left.
This situation was similar to the previous ones. Perhaps the thick fog used a similar method to attack the Skeleton Gnomes' city.
But Lin felt that if they did this, the Skeleton Gnomes could possibly retaliate. The thick fog might have used some method before the attack, such as attacking the main control room first and making the Skeleton Gnomes lose their ability to fight back. Then, it would attack the various areas of the city and dig out all their brains.
