According to Midgard's legend …
There was once such a thing.
Midgard had spread the information of its civilization across the Void in an attempt to summon other species … and one of them had responded to Midgard's' summons'.
They are a special kind of creature. They are made of a soft … substance that can continuously extend and grow.
It was known as' Grave Glue ', and was first discovered in a Void graveyard. It was said that the graveyard was once the ruins of a civilization left behind by some species that wandered the Void.
There was no telling when the 'Grave Glue' began to grow over the ruins … at first, it was just a soft and seemingly harmless substance.
However, after growing for a long time, the 'Grave Glue' almost covered the entire civilization ruins floating in the Void.
Moreover, it was no longer just a soft substance, and the 'Grave Glue' would occasionally form individuals that were rather unique.
These individuals had the ability to activate certain weapons left behind in the ruins, and even repair them.
Later, at some point, the 'Grave Glue' seemed to have received Midgard's signal, and thus activated some of the powerful weapons hidden in the ruins to bombard Midgard.
In the end, that action led to Midgard's attack, and the 'Grave Glue' was destroyed without being able to resist.
The civilization ruins that it occupied spanned over a thousand kilometers in diameter were also burned into powder by Midgard. However, the 'Grave Glue' was not completely destroyed.
There was still a small piece left, and Midgard kept it and threw it into the 'Grave of Midgard'.
In the desert that could never be left, the 'Grave Glue' had been repeating one thing mechanically: repairing anything it found here, such as aircrafts, activating them, driving them to a certain location, and then driving them back, as well as maintaining them and ensuring that they function normally.
Nobody knew why … the 'Grave Glue' had been doing that for a very long time, until …
… … …
* Boom! * The sound of an explosion echoed over the desert.
In the vast desert, there was a flat land made of rocks. Many aircrafts were parked on the flat land, and these aircrafts were now constantly shooting with the weapons on their sides or above their heads.
The target of the shots was a large group of deformed creatures with asymmetrical limbs that were surrounding the desert.
Lin now knew that these deformed creatures that split off from the fleshy mound were called 'Grave Glue' together with the fleshy mound. Lin had just learned about it from the Scholar.
They had found a data storage building in Midgard, and the data stored in that building was related to the 'Grave Glue'.
The 'Grave Glue' seemed to be a rather unique creature among the creatures that Midgard had attacked.
Their true form was like a plant … a creature that would grow endlessly, and when they wanted to operate something, they would split into many moving limbs and use those limbs.
The Watcher's research team had also studied the 'Grave Glue', and they had never been able to infer the purpose of the creature's movements to learn how to split limbs to operate things.
Lin also felt that these creatures were very strange. They seemed to have a 'hobby' of operating machines, but there didn't seem to be any reason for this hobby.
Hence, the 'Grave Glue's's's's's to the Grave' to's to attack to the Grave Glue mound.
Therefore, Lin used the weapons on the 'Grave Glue's' to attack them. These moving deformed creatures were very fragile, and a simple machine gun would be able to shoot them to the ground one by one.
However, there were a lot of them, and they kept coming out of the desert as if they were determined to take control of the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft.
Therefore, Lin did not plan to stay here for long.
Boom! Following the roar of the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft, the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft rose into the air one after another. Seeing this, the 'Grave Glue' on the ground stopped moving.
They seemed to know that they would not be able to catch up with the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft.
Then, Lin ordered all the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft to fly to the other side. Lin felt that the 'Grave Glue' was still missing something in order to attack the 'Grave Glue', so she would not fly to the 'Grave Glue' for now. Instead, she would look for the missing item …
It was not far ahead.
Lin had already seen it. The 'Grave Glue's' aircraft's' high-speed flight allowed Lin to quickly approach it. It was a … building.
The building was severely damaged. It was supposed to be a square with a length and width of a few hundred meters, but its top … was completely gone, leaving behind a broken wall that was less than two meters tall.
However, the things inside the building were completely intact. There was a huge pile of … weapons.
Most of them were relatively common weapons, such as missiles. They were piled up inside the building and seemed to be in perfect condition.
Lin had sent out a lot of mechanical beetles to explore the place and accidentally found this place. As long as she took away all the weapons here, Lin would be able to attack the 'Grave Glue'.
Of course, Lin could also make them herself, but that would be slower … The 'Grave Glue' should be able to recover very quickly.
Before it fully recovered, she would have to launch a full-scale attack on it.
With that in mind, Lin ordered the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft to land on the sand around the building. The moment the aircraft landed, they opened their hatches and many … mechanical soldiers crawled out of the hatches.
These soldiers crawled into the ruined building and began to inspect the weapons. Some were directly dismantled on the spot, while others were transported into the aircraft.
As Lin was doing this, the surrounding sand started to move again … The creatures called 'Grave Glue' had appeared again.
A large number of them walked or crawled towards the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft. Their speed was getting faster and faster, but this time … Lin did not attack them. She just let the aircraft slowly rise into the air.
The 'Grave Glue' all gathered under the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft and stopped moving. They just stood there in a daze.
If the 'Grave Glue's' aircraft were on the ground, some of them would go around the aircraft to get the weapons inside the building. However, when they were in the air, all their attention was on the aircraft. Lin did not know why this was happening …
