Dust was everywhere in its field of vision.
It covered the furniture and the floor. The originally clean and bright walls were filled with holes made by many small creatures. The roof seemed to have been corroded, with cracks and scars everywhere.
The luminous plants planted by the window had long withered, and behind the collapsed door … two skeletons were sleeping in each other's arms.
It ran out of the door, crossed the broken corridor, and walked downstairs. What appeared in front of it was a ruined street, rusted vehicles, cracked roads, and rock shrimps playing on the street.
Huge creatures flew across the sky. They were creatures that were once declared extinct. For some reason, they flew in the sky again.
An ordinary resident of the Dust Crocodile saw the scene after waking up.
It thought that it had seen the future. It thought that it had seen the end of the world. It returned to the bed, lay down with the two skeletons on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
When it woke up, everything would be fine. It would return to normal. It thought so and slowly fell asleep.
Then, when it woke up, it roared, "Why is it still like this?"
…
This was a … silent world.
The life here had stopped moving.
It had completely stopped.
It was like being frozen at the lowest temperature. An object that fell into a 'solidified' state would stop all movement. If … it was a creature, after it was solidified, its state of life would remain at the moment it was solidified, until the solidification ended.
This incident … was quite a big one.
The cause seemed to be an explosion caused by an attack, but in fact, it was unknown. There was no accurate answer as to why it happened.
Compared to the cause, the Dust Crocodile cared more about … the effect it caused.
The effect was quite huge. When the solidification bloomed, not only the underground research institute, but also the city above the research institute, the entire Dust Crocodile Country, and even the surrounding countries were affected.
All the residents, at that moment … stopped moving. They were completely solidified, unable to move. Almost everything stopped moving at that moment.
But it was not so … complete.
There were many things and creatures that did not stop moving. According to the post-event statistics, the solidification effect might have affected 99% of the creatures. However, there were still some creatures that were not solidified. They lived in the area that was solidified.
However, no one knew what kind of life these creatures lived in the solidified world. What was known was that these solidified creatures did not belong to … intelligent species.
They were all wild creatures, such as the local plant-like creatures, small creatures like rock shrimps, and some large creatures that were once extinct by the Dust Crocodile.
Of course, the Dust Crocodile thought that they were extinct. There might be a small number of them living somewhere. When the Dust Crocodile solidified, they flourished again.
As for the non-living things, many of them were also solidified, but not as many as the non-living things. Many things still maintained normal operation after solidification until their energy was exhausted.
It could be seen that living creatures were more susceptible to solidification …
As for the Mechanical Dust Crocodiles, almost all of them were frozen in this frozen bloom incident. Later on, they used this point to refute those Mechanical Dust Crocodiles who discriminated against them and didn't treat them as living creatures.

. When the Dust Crocodile and other solidified creatures finally woke up, they saw a scene … Everything was covered in a thick layer of dust. Everything had become quite … 'ancient.'
Transportation could not be used. Their country was filled with wild animals and plants, turning into a wild world. Just like the world before they developed.
The Dust Crocodiles were quite shocked. At first, many of them did not know what caused this phenomenon. They did not think that they were solidified. Instead, they thought that they were in the future or that something had happened. It was the end of the world or something.
The Dust Crocodile had many movies that showed similar content. It was hard to guarantee that the ordinary residents would think that way.
So, they began to try to live in this … apocalyptic world. Most of the Dust Crocodiles did not have the ability to live in the wild. Most of their daily necessities could not be used. They soon felt the pain of hunger.
However, some Dust Crocodiles assembled some simple tools. They planned to hunt or rob to feed themselves. However, these Dust Crocodiles soon noticed a problem.
At first, they thought that they were survivors who had experienced a great disaster. They needed to live a lonely and difficult life. But when they went outside, they realized … There were 'survivors' everywhere.
A large number of Dust Crocodiles survived. Of course, there were some who died. Those who died were probably not solidified. They were all skeletons. But almost all of the Dust Crocodiles were safe.
Their numbers were almost the same as before. When this large group of Dust Crocodiles walked out of their homes, they scared away the wandering wild creatures. They gathered and started to discuss what to do.
Because almost all of the Dust Crocodiles were alive, the large number allowed them to maintain order. Soon, the mayors of each city stood up and commanded the Dust Crocodiles.
First, they collected the tools that could still be used and repaired the communication tools. Then, they repaired the food factory and other places.
During this period, many problems arose. Most of them were food problems. Because the food supply system was completely paralyzed, starvation caused many Dust Crocodiles to die.
But most of the Dust Crocodiles survived. They rebuilt the factory and got the food supply system working again. Next, they repaired the buildings and other things.
At this time, the Dust Crocodiles were more united than before. Their attitude towards the mechanical Dust Crocodiles had improved. This was because the mechanical Dust Crocodiles were very useful helpers. They did not have as many needs as the flesh Dust Crocodiles. Most of the credit for the reconstruction went to them.
Moreover, during the reconstruction, the mechanical Dust Crocodiles became … good friends with many of the normal Dust Crocodiles.
"The Dust Crocodiles' discrimination against them has lessened. Unfortunately, that traitor will not have the chance to see it," the mini Dust Crocodiles said.
While the normal Dust Crocodiles were repairing the normal living things, the special Dust Crocodiles were also doing special things. For example, the Dust Crocodiles of the military.
During this period, the military quickly confirmed the specific situation in the underground research institute and understood the overall cause of the explosion.
They also found the culprits who caused the explosion.
The 'suicide squad' was all dead, including the mechanical traitor Dust Crocodiles. However, the 'theft squad' was all alive.
In fact, they did not know what had happened because the underground environment they were in did not change as much as above. To them, it was more like … dizziness.
The theft squad quickly took action. They planned to steal the mushrooms and leave quickly. However, due to a mistake, they were caught by the Dust Crocodiles.
After that, under the strict interrogation of the Dust Crocodiles, a few members of the theft squad revealed the process of their actions. Thus, the Dust Crocodiles knew the whole story.
These things were stored in the mini Dust Crocodiles that were used to store information.
Next, the Dust Crocodiles continued to rebuild their country.
Rebuilding was not difficult. Although most of the things were damaged, they could be repaired.
After a period of time, the Dust Crocodiles rebuilt the broken streets and slowly restored the original appearance of the city. All the Dust Crocodiles returned to their previous lives.
Of course, their emotions were not calm. The Dust Crocodiles were quite uneasy because they did not know why this happened.
As for the underground research institute, it was completely restored. The Dust Crocodiles built new equipment and monitoring systems to prevent anything from invading again.
The research on the solidified mushrooms continued.
This incident might be a nightmare for the ordinary citizens, but for the Dust Crocodiles, it was … a very special opportunity.
If they could control the power of 'solidification,' it would be easy to unify the world. There would not even be a need to start a war.
However, how would they control this terrifying power?
In fact, the military wanted to do an experiment. However, they were afraid of triggering a similar incident. Therefore, they tried their best to trigger a solidified bloom in a small area.
Not a large area. How would they do it in a small area? Of course, they would use … a small amount of mushrooms and simulate the scene of the incident.
The energy system, the suicide squad that detonated the energy system, and anything that could trigger the solidification had to be carefully studied and then conducted a mini experiment.
This incident seemed to be a nightmare for the Dust Crocodiles. However, it also increased their control of solidification.
Especially after all kinds of new inventions appeared.
'Solidified Shelter' was a new invention. Simply put, it was a piece of clothing that could prevent the wearer from being affected by solidification.
'Solidified Bloom Prototype Experimental Device' was a powerful invention. This device had a very complicated system that could test a small area of solidified bloom inside the device.
'Solidified Bloom', although its name was Solidified Bloom, was an extremely powerful invention. It could … recreate a solidified event.
The day of dominating other races … would soon come.
