Records of qualifications … Where did they come from?
Lin was paying close attention … to the underground base where the scholar was now. It could also be called the Midgard Research Institute … This place seemed to hold many secrets.
Lin was more concerned about … the records of qualifications to observe.
In fact, Lin had found out about this research facility through the Altered Ones. They had told Lin how to contact the research facility, and when she contacted them, the … Dustcroc Warden inside said that Lin was already qualified to observe the research facility. This qualification had been recorded a long time ago.
But …
How did it know?
Furthermore, what was with this qualification record? Lin didn't remember anything like this being recorded in a place like this.
As the guard, the Dusty Crocodile didn't know the details of the creatures recorded in the records. It said that the records had always been kept in the research institute.
It didn't know why the creatures recorded in the records were recorded, but it knew … most of the creatures recorded in the records were large creatures that would be teleported away when they approached Midgard.
It used this and other methods to check if Lin was qualified. Lin wanted to know how it did it.
There was also …
What kind of creature created this research institute? They must have been very ancient creatures, but were they still around?
Lin decided to investigate the research institute in detail … using a more direct method. At the same time, she also paid close attention … to the demons.
…
"Where is it trying to escape to?"
In the dark tunnel, the Hero's octopus was flying quickly behind the tracking missile. Not far ahead of the tracking missile was the giant Star Conglomerate.
It was flying forward at an extremely fast speed, and as it flew, it kept spraying countless … balls of light behind it.
According to the Dusty Crocodile, these balls of light were made of material from the solidified void. They were a mushy, low-temperature substance in Star Conglomerate's body. After leaving Star Conglomerate's body, they would rapidly heat up and become shiny, explosive balls.
Therefore, the tracking missile and the octopus had to keep dodging these balls of light and find a chance to attack.
"Now!" After a large number of light balls flew past, the color of Star Gather's body became relatively dim. Hero immediately increased the speed of the octopus, and it directly overtook the homing projectiles in front of it. At the same time, it spread out its tentacles and shot a blinding light at Star Gather from its mouth.
Boom! Star Condensation's tail was hit and exploded. A small part of its tail broke off and fell to the ground.
However, Star Condensation's speed did not decrease. Instead, it flew even faster. At the same time, it threw a large number of light balls at the octopus.
The octopus dodged again and prepared to attack.
The pursuit in the air continued, but the missile in charge of tracking did not continue to follow the battle. It stopped and flew to the ground.
"What's wrong?" At the research facility, the Scholar asked Dusty Crocodile, "Why aren't you following them?"
"Now that we don't need the tracking bullets anymore, it won't lose us if it keeps following us." Dusty Crocodile said, "Just now, Xing Ju's … tail had a small piece blown off. We need to collect it as a research sample."
"Didn't I say that there are many anomalies happening?" Dust Crocodile said, "Studying these creatures that freeze space is the best way to investigate, but they are very difficult to find and capture. This is a good opportunity. We can't miss it."
As Dusty Crocodile spoke, the tracking bullet flew to the ground.
A small piece of Star Condensation's tail was about 30 feet long. It looked like a lump of black meat. It did not have the starry sky color from before. It was now on a piece of sand.
The tracking bullet slowly flew to the top of Star Condensation's … meat. It aimed its head at the meat. The head of the tracking bullet opened with a click. A large number of small machines with propellers flew out.
These small machines looked like little beetles. They quickly landed on Star Conglomerate's meat and made a beeping sound.
The Scholar also saw on the screen at the research facility. As the small machines moved, many … words appeared on the screen. The Scholar could not understand the words, but Dusty Crocodile seemed to be able to.
"What?" Dusty Crocodile looked very shocked. "Is that so …"
"What happened?" the Scholar asked. "Can you find out anything by looking at that … piece of meat?"
"Yes …" Dusty Crocodile said. "This Star Condensation has cut off its control."
"Cut off … control?" the Scholar asked. "What does that mean?"
"These creatures that freeze the void are mostly related to Midgard itself," Dusty Crocodile said. Dusty Crocodile said, "This was … discovered in previous research. Midgard used a certain method to control other creatures that froze the void. We call this control 'control.'"
"To be more specific, this kind of control uses a type of energy to affect their thoughts and restrict their behavior," Dusty Crocodile said. "Under control, they won't stray too far from Midgard's pipeline."
"So, in other places in the void, these creatures will not appear." Midgard used this method to restrict their movements. “
"Every creature that freezes the void has a control on them. This can be detected, but …" Dusty Crocodile said. "This Star Condensation has no control."
"So, it will do something that has never happened before. It can even fly out of the pipeline," Dusty Crocodile said. "But … what will cause this abnormality?"
"Do you think that something has unlocked the 'control'?" the Scholar asked.
"Yes," Dusty Crocodile said. "It should not be the doing of the 'demons' because they do not seem to have this kind of power."
"The only possibility that I can think of is … the creator of this research lab, the first watcher," Dusty Crocodile said. Dusty Crocodile said, "The research on Midgard was first carried out by this group of mysterious creatures. They were also the ones who detected the 'restraints' on the creatures that solidified the void here."
"They once tried to remove the 'control' on a creature that freezes the void. They realized that the creature would do many things that it would not do before, including flying far away from the pipeline," Dusty Crocodile said. "But … I do not understand them at all. I do not know what kind of creatures they are. There is no information about them here. There is only part of their research technology for us to continue our research here."
"Also, they left behind … the selection system. This system will always select new watchers to come here, so there will always be a successor here," Dusty Crocodile said. Dust Crocodile said, "However, they didn't leave behind the technology to control it. They only left behind the technology to detect it."
"But the control on this Star Condensation has been removed. Does this mean … they have returned?"
"I think …" the Scholar said. "Then there is another possibility, and that is …"
Before the Scholar could finish her sentence, another voice rang out, "Great new Demon King! We have waited for your arrival! Quick, bestow your wrath on those foolish and pathetic things! "
"This is …" The Scholar realized that the voice came from the mini Scholar that it carried around its waist.
Originally, the mini Scholar could not receive any signal, but for some reason, it suddenly had. When the Scholar took it out and opened the screen, it saw …
It was a familiar scene of a group of demons inside the Astral Aggregate. They gathered together as if they were preparing for something …
