"These creatures don't seem to have the usual … 'emotions'."
"They can't roll around either."
"But they can turn into something that can roll around, although they usually don't choose to do that."
Two white creatures stared at the image carefully in a certain place in the world of pompoms.
The image was … a half-dragon, half-fish creature. It had the body of a dragon and the face of a fish. Although it had a mixed appearance, it did not have the characteristics of the two.
For example, it did not use gills or other organs to breathe. In reality, it did not need the oxygen of this world at all. It did not have a single cell inside.
The only similarities between it and the creatures of this world were its appearance and its voice.
The two white creatures … were something that Maya and the imam had discovered before. They did not take part in the battle right now, but they had obtained many things from the battle, such as the Primordial realm.
"What do you want to do? You want me to tell you our information? You want to study me? That's completely pointless. You won't be able to obtain any useful information. You won't be able to obtain anything. "
The Primordial realm was trapped in a room, but it did not seem afraid at all. Instead, it spoke very calmly.
Smack! Suddenly, a sharp object shot out from a small hole in the ceiling. It immediately struck the Primordial realm's shoulder and stabbed deeply.
"You want me to feel pain? That's useless. I won't feel the pain you think I do, nor will I divulge any information to you because of the pain. You can kill me. But it's completely pointless. "
The Primordial realm said a lot as it looked at its shoulder that had been stabbed. Clearly, it did not care at all.
"It seems like the protection has been removed." The imam looked at the Primordial realm on the other side of the image and said, "But I wonder when it was removed."
"Yes. It didn't even roll around on the ground. That's just far too suspicious."
"Can't you be a little more serious? Don't say meaningless things like that all the time."
"I've always been rather serious. It's the same whether it's rolling or detecting things that can't roll!"
"…" The imam did not continue. Instead, he thought of what had just happened.
The Primordial realm possessed a layer of protection. This kind of defense could be activated in an instant and could resist some attacks. The imam's initial estimation was that this was some kind of defense method that used fine materials to create a shield.
It might also be a form of energy. The skin of a Primordial realm expert could trigger the activation of a protective barrier, causing it to form several centimeters above the surface of the body. He would only know the exact details after he studied it.
That was why they had caught a Primordial realm expert. When they caught one, it would activate its defences. They could also use some special attacks.
This method of attack should have the same principle as defense. It could gather some kind of explosive material or energy close to the body, causing an explosion.
However, after it was caught, it would have no protection and would not attack. Therefore, it did not attack to open the room. Neither did it block the needles that were shot at it.
As for the environment of the Primordial realm. It was rather miraculous.
The imam had studied the bodies of Primordial realm experts before. Their bodies were mainly composed of tiny particles that resembled crystals. These particles could reassemble and disperse at will, which was why they were half-dragon, half-fish.
Their bodies had an analysis function. They could analyze the nuclear information in the cells of the meat they ate and reassemble the particles according to the nuclear information, making them resemble the creatures they ate.
Moreover, they were not just similar in appearance. They could also imitate personalities, such as this Primordial realm expert. It had imitated the personality of the emerald dragon, so its way of speaking and handling matters was similar to creatures with personalities.
However, the imam was inclined to believe that Primordial realm experts did not have 'emotions' like creatures with personalities. Although when they attacked the emerald dragon and the skeletal dragon, they had been nagging them for a long time, asking them to join them and asking them questions. However, that was just how the Primordial realm imitated the personalities of creatures. It was not their own thoughts.
Why did they do that? Perhaps it was to make the local creatures feel close to them or something. The imam did not know the exact reason, but they only imitated the emerald dragon in terms of personality and conversation. The Primordial realm experts had no idea about the emerald dragon's habits and general knowledge.
The Primordial realm had only learnt about the emerald dragon's lifestyle through Ancient Squido. As a result, they made many mistakes when they tried to recruit the emerald dragon.
"That's why we should put 'that' in there." At this moment, Maya suddenly said, "Since they're imitating the personalities of the little green dinosaurs, they might feel rather terrified when they face 'that'."
"'That'?" The imam asked in doubt, "Who are you talking about?"
Beep! Maya prodded the image, and a plump creature with sharp legs and a huge mouth appeared.
"You actually dare to put me here? I'll bite you all to death! " The creature stood in the same room as the Primordial realm expert. It roared at the image as if it knew that the imam and Maya were watching it.
"Creating a brain-monster … might not be effective," said the imam, "But we can try."
With that, the imam prodded the image as well. Afterwards, a hole immediately opened up below the brain-monster, and it fell in.
At the same time, a hole opened up in the ceiling of the Primordial realm's room, and the brain-monster fell in.
"As soon as I came out! I saw something I can bite to death! "The moment the brain-monster saw the Primordial realm expert, it suddenly lunged towards it.
The Primordial realm expert immediately rolled on the ground, dodging the brain-monster's attack and retreating to a corner.
"It dodged?" The imam watched this in amazement. The Primordial realm expert had not dodged at all when they were experimenting on it before, but now, it had dodged.
"It rolled!" Maya said, "It rolled away from the fear of death!"
"... That means it's still afraid of death," said the imam. The imam said, "That should be the case. Before, it believed that it was an important experiment, so we wouldn't kill it. As a result, it purposefully didn't resist, making us think that it wasn't afraid of death … However, the moment the brain-monster bit at it, it believed that it would actually die, so it could only dodge."
