"You … You're the ugly thing that those green idiots think is ugly!"
The sky here seemed to be illuminated by the setting sun, giving off an orange hue. Under the sky, two creatures stood together, looking up at each other.
On one side was a thirty-centimeter-long scorpion in a protective suit. On the other side was a three-meter-long metallic machine … the Scholar.
"Hey, don't call me that. We know each other. Do you really think I'm ugly?" The Scholar Walker looked at the scorpion on the ground and listened to its language. A feeling of depression rose in his mind.
Among the Voidfolk, its own kind had a relatively high opinion of its appearance. However, when it came to places without its own kind, other creatures would not have a good opinion of its appearance.
In the end, it was just "ugly" and "unfeeling". As for "good-looking", who knew how long it had been since it had heard that.
"I think it's okay," said the scorpion. "Like a normal scorpion."
"… Alright." The Scholar decided to change the topic. "Then why are you here? Do you know why I'm here too?"
The Scholar looked around. Under the sunset sky, the ground was filled with low hemispherical houses. These houses seemed to be made of white stones piled up one by one. There were also green plants planted around them. It looked like a pompon rather than a crystallized world.
The Scholar remembered that it had been in the dream with the Void Cockroach. The Void Cockroach had told it many things, such as the three Cyclic Worlds of the Primordial Realm, which were the Surface World, the Abandoned World, and the Mirror World, as well as the situation of the peak species.
Only then did the scholar learn that the statues in the dream were all recorded peak species. Every time the Primordial realm wanted a peak species to enter the arena, they would adjust the statues around them into a cylindrical shape, which meant that they had already entered the arena.
If they died out after entering the battlefield, the cylindrical shape would collapse. The Scholar planned to conduct further research with the Void Cockroach there.
However, the Scholar suddenly woke up from the dream for some reason. When it woke up, it found itself in a strange place that seemed to be at dusk. It was not where it had been before.
Was this a location in the Crystal World? The Scholar had no idea. When it was confused, it saw the scorpion. Unfortunately, the scorpion seemed to be as confused as it was.
"You actually want me to answer such a difficult question?" Scorpion said angrily to the Scholar, "But I can still answer some … details. That idiot must have poked me, and that's why I'm here."
"Which idiot?"
"That little dinosaur! It … "
"…" The Scholar listened to the scorpion say a lot of things. Most of it was scolding the little dinosaur, but the Scholar finally understood. When they were teleporting, the scorpion was touched, and it seemed to have teleported to the wrong place.
Although the Scholar didn't think it was because of a slight bump, now that he knew, it was time for him to sleep. With that in mind, the Scholar sat on the warm ground and prepared to lie down.
"Are you crazy?!" Suddenly, a scream woke the scholar up. The scorpion pointed its pincer at the scholar and said angrily, "Do you want to lie here and pretend to be a corpse? Come with me and see what kind of strange place this is! "
With that, Scorpion quickly walked to the side, and the Scholar followed suit.
Strange, the Scholar thought. After talking to the scorpion, she suddenly felt very sleepy and wanted to sleep. If it weren't for the scorpion's scream, she would have fallen asleep.
Now, she didn't feel sleepy anymore. Confused, the Scholar and the scorpion walked on the road.
The place looked very much like the town of Emerald Dragon. The ground was paved with white rocks, and the buildings on both sides looked like they were made of stone. Aside from the plants around the buildings, the Scholar didn't see any living things.
No, she didn't know if the plants were alive or not. They might be fake …
"Bang bang bang! Is there an idiot in there? " Scorpion and the Scholar came to the door of a small hemispherical house. Scorpion shouted at the door, "Bang bang bang! Come out quickly! "
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" The Scholar quickly said, "Wait a minute, don't shout like that. You should take a peek first …"
"No need to peek!" Scorpion said. "Look at this small house. It's so similar to those green idiots. There must be an idiot in there. When it comes out, you can deal with it … Bang bang bang! Come out quickly! You useless, weak, and despicable thing! "
"… There's nothing inside?" Scorpion shouted loudly, but there was no movement inside. The Scholar walked to the side of the building and looked in through the window.
"This really looks like Emerald Dragon …"
The Scholar saw that there were wooden floors and furniture. The size and style were very similar to Emerald Dragon's. There was also a wooden table full of cutlery and steaming food.
"What? There's an idiot living inside who ran out without eating? " Scorpion climbed to the window and saw the food inside. It immediately said, "If that's the case, I can't let it go to waste!"
Slap!
The window shattered. Scorpion smashed the window and jumped in. It climbed onto the table and began to eat.
Scorpion first stuffed the food into the opening of its left claw protective suit, then squeezed the food into its mouth.
"Wait, you can't eat like this …"
"It tested it!" Scorpion said as it ate. "It told me it's not poisonous or dangerous."
"It?" The Scholar was stunned. Suddenly, it heard a beeping sound from Scorpion and remembered that it was the protective suit's detection function.
Since the protective suit was fine, it should be edible … The Scholar climbed in through the window and looked at the table full of food. It also wanted to eat, but it couldn't eat in its current state.
"Quack quack quack?"
Suddenly, a sound caused the Scholar to turn its head around. It noticed that the door to one of the rooms had opened, and a … machine walked out from it?
"What are you? Why are you here? " The machine was as tall as the Emerald Dragon and had four limbs like the Emerald Dragon. It also spoke the Emerald Dragon's language.
However, its face looked like a … display screen, not the Emerald Dragon's face. Its whole body was made of metal, so the Scholar thought it was … a machine.
"Can't you see we're eating? What are you talking about? "Scorpion said angrily." What are you? "
