Buzz.
Steam erupted in front of Lin's eyes.
This was the depths of the huge metal mass, the place where the crystal lizards searched for energy.
Here, sound did not need to be simulated because there was air here. This place was separated from the airless area outside the metal mass. A layer of completely sealed wall enveloped the inner space of the metal mass.
Therefore, the inside was completely different from the outside. The spy followed the crystal lizards' energy collection team to this place.
After passing through a special door, the crystal lizards' team and Lin's spy came to this sealed layer. Although everything around this place was still made of metal, it was not the same as the outside. Most of the metal here was tube-shaped, and it was usually full of holes. And occasionally, a steam-like gas would erupt.
Now, Lin and the exploration team were in a tunnel about one meter wide. The walls of the tunnel were lined with dense pipes.
This place no longer looked like a metal dump, but more like the internal structure of a building, or the operating system of a huge mechanical device.
However, there was nothing operating here. Everything here looked like it had been abandoned.
The pipes were full of holes, and screams often resounded here.
Buzz. A large amount of gas spurted out in front of the spy. When the gas spread, Lin also felt a heat wave spreading.
The surrounding crystal lizards hurriedly ran to both sides. They avoided the heat wave.
The gas was like steam, but it was not steam. It seemed that something would occasionally happen in the pipes, causing them to spurt out intermittently.
Inside here. Not only did it retain air, but it also retained a relatively high temperature. If there was oxygen here, it would be in a gaseous state and not a liquid state.
Although the temperature here was not enough to melt ice and snow, it was quite dangerous for the void creatures in the metal mass. Most of the creatures in the outer layer could not enter this place. Only the crystal lizards and a few creatures could enter.
But it seemed that the crystal lizards here could not resist the higher temperature. They would avoid the steam-like spray. However. Lin remembered that the crystal lizards in the Black Metal could withstand the usual temperature of the Voidmother Sphere.
Perhaps the crystal lizards of the Black Metal had something special. They might have been modified by the Black Metal.
The creator said that the Black Metal had the technology to modify these non-multicellular creatures. Lin had not seen this technology yet. However, from the perspective of multicellular organisms, crystal lizards were resistant to high temperatures, so it was relatively easy to modify them.
As for the other creatures here, such as the liquid creatures, they had no resistance at all. They couldn't enter such a hot place, and they might even vaporize.
But because of this special environment, there are some creatures that can't be seen in the outside world.
In front of the spy's eyes, a group of creatures appeared.
Vroom! Accompanied by a steam-like gas, the pipes on the ground screamed again. At the same time, a group of small creatures flew out.
These creatures were one millimeter in diameter and were spherical. On both sides of the ball, there was a pair of small fin-like wings. In the process of flapping rapidly, they flew everywhere.
Lin had heard about these creatures from Giggle before. Now that she had seen them, she realized that these creatures were rather interesting.
They should be living in pipes. Following the spraying of the gas, it flew back into the pipe.
However. Crystal lizards were more afraid of such creatures.
"Hurry and leave!"
Seeing that the spy was too close to the creature, the few crystal lizards at the back made a sound.
In an environment with air, the crystal lizards used their tails to knock on the pipe to make sounds and communicate with their companions. The language of communication was similar to vibrations.
These small spherical creatures would scatter a large amount of powdery substances in the process of flying. These powders had a very strong corrosive ability.
This was indeed the case for crystal lizards. They could corrode the shell of crystal lizards, so the other crystal lizards stayed far away.
Although the spy's shell looked almost the same as the crystal lizards, the material used to construct it was completely different.
However, the spy also retreated a little and did not study these creatures in detail.
Following the crystal lizards, the spy went deeper and deeper into the tunnel. This tunnel was not a straight line, and there were many forks in the surroundings. If not for following the crystal lizards, he wouldn't have known where to go.
The crystal lizards were very familiar with the path here. They should be close to the first source of energy now.
It was right in front.
The tunnel in front seemed to be broken. A large number of pipes were twisted into the tunnel for some reason, completely blocking the path.
In the blocked area, there was a mass of transparent liquid. The crystal lizards' energy was collected from this liquid.
This mass of liquid occupied about 30 centimeters of the tunnel. Because it was quite transparent, the situation inside could be seen, as well as the blocked area at the back.
According to the crystal lizards here, this mass of liquid was formed by a large amount of things sprayed out from the pipes.
This mass of liquid was clearly not water. It was unknown what it was. The crystal lizards and the spy walked to the front of the mass of liquid.
The crystal lizards directly drilled into the mass of liquid. It felt as if they had drilled into a jelly, slowly swimming in the transparent mass of liquid.
At the same time, Lin's spy also entered the mass of liquid.
This mass of liquid felt similar to water. The resistance was very small, and there were many small substances floating inside. It was said that these substances were actually groups of tiny creatures. They would attack the crystal lizards.
At this time, it seemed that the small metal creatures on the spy's body were useful.
Switching to a microscopic view, Lin could see what was happening to the spy's body. The small substances in the mass of liquid were indeed groups of tiny creatures. When they approached the spy's body, the black immune creatures on the spy's body would start fighting with them.
The battle was quite intense. It looked very much like a battle between cells. Lin was more concerned about the creatures in the mass of liquid. They were very similar to the commonly seen cellular creatures.
While Lin was observing, the other crystal lizards had already swam to the front. These crystal lizards all carried a box called an energy box. It was said that as long as it was placed in water, it would slowly fill up with energy.
After finding a suitable location, the energy storage speed would be very fast.
It seemed that this mass of liquid would automatically fill the box with energy.
