"We need to move."
"We don't have much time left …"
"They've all been deployed, but one … two … have been destroyed."
"The losses are within the normal range."
In an underground space, a group of Primordial realm experts that shone with golden light were gathered together. They were discussing … recent matters.
This was not the underground space where they had first conversed with the creatures of the church. Instead, it was a different one.
However, even if it was a different one, creatures would still peep in here.
"They seem to be discussing the recent situation." The Scholar stood behind a pillar made of crystal. She could see the Primordial realm experts and hear what they were saying by sticking her head out.
She had come here because the Inca insects had teleported her away earlier. Teleporting a single, small object like the Scholar had a higher chance of being teleported to these … secret places.
For some reason … Perhaps even the small protectors responsible for the teleportation had no idea why. Regardless, the Scholar was able to obtain some information from these Primordial realm experts.
She had no idea where the scorpion had been teleported to. Sometimes, the location would be different, but without it, the Scholar found it slightly more peaceful.
"Continue activating them. Activate them all! We need to use everything we have to ensure that we don't fail. "
The golden Primordial realm experts were clearly very excited. The Scholar also discovered that the thing they were talking about was the structure the Scholar had seen in the silver swamp before.
This was because the Primordial realm experts saw … a 3D image. They could see huge structures bursting out of the ground, rapidly rising up from the ground.
Beside the image was … a map of the world. There were lights everywhere on the map. These were the locations where they had activated the structures.
The Primordial realm had already activated these structures in various parts of the world. Many of the structures vanished as soon as they appeared, which meant that they had been destroyed by the insects.
Perhaps because there were so many of them, the Primordial realm experts did not care too much about the destroyed structures. Instead, they continued to activate more and more structures, until the structures constantly flickered across every region on the map.
"Very good. The preparations are complete," said a Primordial realm expert, "We can activate them at any time."
"W- are we really going to do this?" Another Primordial realm expert said, "We can still use our full strength to protect our world."
"However, we've never seen creatures that fight to the death when they can flee," said the first Primordial realm expert. "There's never been a civilization like that in this world. We don't have to continue fighting. We need to retreat before we suffer even more losses."
Did they really want to run away?
The Scholar had heard Cryopteris translate some of the contact languages for him. Cryopteris believed that the Primordial realm experts in the meeting were probably discussing escape.
Here, the scholar heard the Primordial realm's words accurately. In that case, they did indeed want to leave. They did not want to fight anymore. The buildings seemed to be the key to their escape.
Although the buildings were constantly being destroyed by the swarm, they did not care. Perhaps it was because they only needed to raise the buildings and activate them.
"We … are going to a place very, very far away." At this moment, the Primordial realm expert spoke again, "We'll go to a place where neither transpirators nor anything else can find us. We'll continue to grow there, and once we're powerful enough … we'll return!"
"That's right! We will continue to live! "
The Primordial realm experts in the surroundings were clearly very excited. As it seemed, none of them objected to the idea of fleeing.
"Then, let's start!"
A Primordial realm expert suddenly moved. It took a few steps back at first before charging towards the projection.
Although they did not know why it was doing such a strange thing, nor did they know how it was going to escape, but … the Scholar felt that perhaps they should stop it.
Bang!
"Arghhhhhh!" With a small explosion, the Primordial realm expert who originally wanted to charge towards the projection suddenly rolled to the ground. Afterwards, he rolled around in great pain.
"You're here!"
The other Primordial realm experts ignored their companion who was rolling around in pain. Instead, they quickly looked towards the Scholar. Golden light shone on the Scholar's face. The Scholar knew that he had been discovered.
"Do you want to escape?" The Scholar stood out from behind the pillar and asked the golden Primordial realm experts.
"You know very well," said a Primordial realm expert. "But that's meaningless now. You won't find us. We'll only meet again very soon."
"However, since you're here, I want to discuss some things with you," said the golden Primordial realm expert, "You … what do you represent?"
"What do I represent?" The Scholar was taken aback by the question. Afterwards, he asked, "What do you mean?"
"We know that the races that attack us are not the same," said the Primordial realm expert. "There are many races that attack us, but apart from one, there are very few of them."
"We also understand those races. What do they generally do? Some of them are like you … spies, while others mingle with large groups to do some simple tasks or do nothing at all," said the Primordial realm expert, "We understand most of their uses."
"But only you … We don't understand you."
"You don't understand me?" The Scholar said, "Won't you know once you see me? I'm a … machine, an intelligent machine. I'm also made of materials that can hide from your detection."
"No, you're not just a machine," said the Primordial realm expert. "We've heard about you in the past. Your world has many races. The transpirators did not tell us everything. There are some very powerful things among you."
"That's what we … heard recently," said the Primordial realm expert. The Primordial realm expert said, "As a result, we began some investigations on you without you knowing, and we discovered something."
"You … are connected to a very distant place. You're not a machine controlled by an intelligent core," said the Primordial realm expert, "And most importantly, there's more than one connected to you."
"More than one?"
"We've investigated carefully …" said the Primordial realm expert, "There's a very ordinary one … and a very special one that's very powerful. Perhaps that's the special, powerful creature from your world."
