"We have to give it to him, are we really going to do this? This is something we have to do"
This was a vast, dark space.
The ground here was covered with shallow circular pits one after another, and in each of these pits stood a creature called the Church.
Over a hundred Church creatures were gathered here, and between these Church creatures standing in the pits, many of their young were running back and forth.
These young were around 10 centimeters to 1 meter in size, and they could move freely here without entering the pits like adults.
Among these young, there was an individual called the Spy.
It was now mingling with all the young, doing the same thing as them, which was learning.
Lin hadn't been here for long, so she learned that this place was called the Head. At the same time, over a hundred Church creatures were gathered here.
They seemed to be performing some kind of strange ritual here, and after some research, Lin found that they were performing a ritual related to the Transpiration.
They wanted to channel Fear energy into the Transpiration.
They seemed to have been hesitating about this for a long time, and even now, they were still hesitating even though they had all gathered at the place where the ritual was to be performed.
Lin still hadn't figured out how they were going to perform the ritual, so she was still investigating. It was very easy to investigate right now, because the young were a very advantageous identity.
The young of the Church creatures didn't have any special teaching for them, they all learned by themselves, and their learning process was to run around among the adults. They observed the adults' behavior, then understood and learned on their own.
The adults didn't restrict the young from going anywhere except to dangerous places.
They could move anywhere. This is true even in places that seem to be important. That was why the Spy was now running towards the center of this place.
All the adult Church creatures here were staying in a circular pit. Because half of their bodies were in the shallow pit, they looked like tentacles lying on top of the pit.
This kind of behavior didn't seem to have any special effect, it was just a symbolic action.
The Church creatures were constantly communicating with each other, they were constantly touching their companions next to them, and the content of their conversation was almost all
Of their hesitation.
They were all hesitating whether or not to do this, so all the Church creatures here started a discussion. But there was no result.
Lin's Spy watched their discussion while walking towards the center of the room.
At the center of the room was the most eye-catching scenery. At the center of the room, there was something on the roof.
This thing looked like a sharp conical stone. It was more than six meters long, and its tip was aimed directly at the ground below. However, there was nothing on the ground.
Lin's spy cub slowly walked under the sharp awl. From here, she could feel that the awl was filled with the energy of fear.
From the conversations of the Order creatures around him, he knew that this sharp cone was an object used to inject fear energy, but there was no Transpiration here.
Thinking. Lin had the spy run to a nearby adult Order creature in a pit. She touched it and asked, "Where is the Transpirator?"
The Order's creatures did not refer to Transpirators as Transpirators. They had a special word to describe the Transpirator, and this word contained all kinds of praises.
However, Lin would translate it to Transpirator.
"It's right below us," the cultists answered the spy as they scattered some of the fragments in front of him.
Lin looked at the fragments and continued to ask, "Won't it object to what you're doing?"
"We live because of it. Don't ask, observe more and understand for yourself," the cultists threw down some new fragments, which meant that.
Then, when Lin poked it again, it didn't react.
It seemed that Lin didn't know enough about these creatures. They were indeed quite strange. After reading some of their history, Lin found that although the cub were learning everywhere, they didn't ask or communicate much.
They all imagined and thought on their own, and after they grew up and joined the adult group, they didn't show any discomfort.
These creatures seemed very interesting, but Lin didn't have much free time to continue acting as a spy to experience their lives. She felt that she needed to solve the current problem.
If they really wanted to use fear energy to infect the Transpirator, Lin felt that it was necessary to stop them.
No matter what the Transpirator was or what kind of creature it was, it definitely had a very powerful ability. If the fear energy obtained this ability, it was equivalent to having a powerful weapon.
The question was, why didn't the fear energy directly infect the Transpirator, but let these Order creatures do it?
On the ground, Lin's spy stared at the awl that was filled with fear. The awl was filled with tiny machines.
Although the cone was filled with fear energy, these miniature machines were still not controlled by the fear energy. Because they were very close, she could detect that there was no fear energy on them, and they were still the same kind of machines that had been programmed.
This was very strange. Why didn't the fear energy directly control these machines?
"Now, we don't have much time."
While Lin was studying here, she suddenly received a message.
This message should have been received by all the Order creatures present. It was a message similar to a broadcast, and the sender was an adult Order creature.
Unlike the other Order creatures, it didn't stay in the shallow pit. Instead, it walked step by step towards the center of the room where the spy was.
It seemed to have a lot of prestige. After the other Order creatures received the message, they all stopped talking.
When it was one step away from stepping on the spy, it stopped. Ignoring the spy, it spread out most of its tentacles and sent a signal to all the Order creatures in the room. "We must act now. If we don't act now, all of our species will be destroyed."
Lin's spy cub had the same receiver as the Order creatures, so it could receive the signal.
"It has been too long. We must act now. Is there anyone else who has any questions?"
Although all the Order creatures had been chatting non-stop since the beginning, none of them had any questions.
Seeing that there were no objections, the speaking Order creature said, "Then, let's go now."
Before it could finish, it stopped moving, mainly because the spy poked it.
"Why must you do this? Is there no other way?" Lin asked the spy to ask it this question.
"It asked such a question." The Order creature seemed to be shocked. Its message contained a lot of emotion. "It actually asked such a question."
As it spoke, it reached out a tentacle, grabbed Lin's spy cub, and lifted it high into the air.
"Can you believe it actually asked me a question? It said."
It sent the question that Lin had just asked it to everyone in the room.
Suddenly, all the Order creatures in the room, except for the spy cub, were shocked.
They began to discuss with each other. They were all talking about the same thing, which was why Lin's spy cub asked such a question.
Lin thought it was strange that they had such a reaction. Lin knew that their cub rarely asked questions, but this shouldn't have happened.
And what was even more strange was that they were only discussing why the cub was like this. They didn't suspect that the cub was a spy.
"Our species has become abnormal." The Order creature suddenly put the spy back on the ground and broadcast again. "So we must act now."
"For our future and our spirit, we must sacrifice our faith."
After that, all the tentacles on its body trembled. At the same time, it also turned three times on the ground.
Seeing this, all the creatures of the Order also turned around in their pits three times.
Their actions seemed to have triggered some kind of mechanism. The cone-shaped object in the center of the room began to slowly move downwards, as if it was going to pierce the ground.
It seemed that they were going to start this ritual.
Although they still didn't understand many things, Lin believed that when the cone-shaped object touched the ground, it was very likely that it would transmit the fear energy inside into the ground.
And if the Transpirator was really underground, it would obviously be affected, so they had to do something.
Boom!
The sound of an explosion suddenly rang out. This wasn't Lin's doing.
Because Lin's spy cub was also sent flying by the impact of the explosion. By the time the spy steadied itself, it had already seen the cone-shaped object explode.
Its fragments scattered all over the floor. All the Order creatures in the room looked at this scene in surprise.
Their surprise was very obvious. Some of the tentacles on their body involuntarily twitched.
And the cause of this explosion was none other than the creature that had just spoken.
Lin saw that it had just pounced forward and collided with the cone-shaped object.
Because the Order creature had a self-destruct function, and it had just activated this self-destruct function, blowing itself and the cone-shaped object into pieces.
However, there was still a tentacle left. This tentacle wriggled on the ground and continued to send signals around.
"Sacrificing your faith is your business. I won't do that."
