This … seemed to be the place.
A ball of fluff was flying through the city ruins built on the surface of the vines.
Above the ball of fluff, a series of explosions were still flashing. The warships aimed their weapons at any solidified lifeform that appeared in this area.
There were no solidified lifeforms here in the first place. They only appeared after this place was destroyed.
So, the robots assumed that these solidified lifeforms … were created by it and decided to eliminate them all.
Because the robots had always had an idea. Lin had seen some of it when she was looking through the files. They believed that the creature might be the leader of the solidified lifeforms. It had always wanted the solidified lifeforms to grow in this area of rubble.
But as for what it was thinking, Lin felt that she would have to communicate with it to find out.
Also, this creature was not always called a creature. It had a name. The robot Ershi Min called it that. It was called 'Otherworldly Sound'.
The name 'Otherworldly Sound' came from when the robot researchers first tried to probe the solidified void. They received a very special and abnormal … sound.
Later, they found out that the sound came from that creature. Later on, they called it 'Otherworldly Sound'.
At first, it was called 'Otherworldly Sound 51'. It mainly meant the sound of a highly intelligent lifeform. Later on, it was shortened to 'Otherworldly Sound'.
And after it found out about the name, it accepted it without any objections. It seemed … it did not care about the name.
So, Lin also wanted to listen to this Otherworldly Sound. At the same time, Lin also sent the fluff balls to find the thing that had detected Lin.
Lin wanted to know what that thing was like and why it could detect Lin as an 'adaptive lifeform'. Lin was very interested in that.
However, Lin would reach the place where she communicated with the Otherworldly Sound first … this should be the place.
Although Lin had found a lot of information in the large building, the Otherworldly Sound's communication point was not there. Instead, it was in an underground space.
But here, perhaps it was more appropriate to say that it was inside the vines. On the street before Lin, there was a staircase leading down.
Floating to the side of the staircase, Lin could see that the staircase kept going down. Deep down, there was a thick metal door with the words … 'No entry' written on it.
The fluff ball floated to the bottom of the metal door. Using its fluff, it poked at the bottom right of the door and entered … a password on the screen that popped up.
Then, a small door opened beside the pompon, and the pompon floated in.
This place led to a communication center, where an organ of the vines was placed. They had been communicating with the Otherworldly Voices through this organ.
Lin quickly flew through the narrow passage. This place appeared to be intact, without any damage. Whether it was the passage walls or the ground, they were all snow-white and clean, and …
"Hey! What are you doing here? This place is off-limits, do you know that? Since it's forbidden to enter, why don't you set a simpler password? "
After turning a corner, Lin saw two … blue robots arguing in front of her.
Of course, they weren't robots. They were all solidified creatures, or in other words, Illusion Apprentices in disguise. The ones Lin saw on the phone earlier were all Illusion Apprentices.
Although they could play the role of an Ershi Min perfectly, they could not play the role of a robot Ershi Min perfectly. For some reason, there were two big loopholes in this kind of acting.
One was that they looked blue or dark blue, which could be easily distinguished. Another was that they were soft to the touch, not as hard as real robots.
Because they could be easily distinguished, the Illusion Apprentices were dealt with by the robot Ershi Min in the end. But apparently …
They weren't completely wiped out, because they had appeared again.
These two seemed to be playing the role of … a security guard, and the other was playing the role of an ordinary citizen who accidentally broke in.
Lin Sanjiu didn't know what the purpose of their acting was, but the ones who answered the phone outside were probably arranged by the Otherworldly Voices.
The general purpose was to let the robots living on the vines think that everything was normal here. But after the place was destroyed, the Otherworldly Voices did not cancel this order, so they continued to answer the phone and play the role.
While playing the role, they would ignore their surroundings, so Lin could directly float past them.
This passage … was quite complicated.
Lin flew through the white passage for a while, and along the way, she saw many apprentices in various roles, all of which were suitable for this research institute.
After seeing these apprentices, she entered many passwords and entered many doors. Finally, Lin reached her destination …
This place was a relatively large room.
As soon as she entered, Lin saw … a vine organ placed in the center of the room.
This organ looked like … the intestines of a cellular organism.
It was green in color and looked very soft, and it was rolled into a pile in the center of the room. This pile of organs was about ten meters in size, and there were many machines and instruments placed around it.
It seemed that they were checking the condition of the organ, and … using the organ to communicate.
The pompom floated to a machine that seemed to be a communication device, which looked like a 3D imaging device.
It was a disc-shaped device with a diameter of two meters. It was placed next to the organ, and there were many wires on it that extended to the organ.
After the pompom poked it, a 3D image popped up on the disc. The image kept flashing, and it looked … as if it wasn't connected.
Lin didn't know how to connect it. In fact, the information she looked through before didn't mention how to operate this device, so Lin was just casually trying it out.
'Crackle …'
Just as Lin was thinking this, a sound suddenly appeared on the screen, but there was no image.
'Bzzt …' The image kept flashing, and soon more sounds appeared, but …
"Can you hear me?" Lin tried to ask … but there was no response.
"This is not how to use this thing!"
Suddenly, Lin heard another voice. She saw a blue machine walk in from the entrance … which was … an apprentice illusion.
This seemed to be the first apprentice illusion that understood Lin's pompom. It walked to the machine and said, "This is not the right way to use it, and the correct way is this!"
It suddenly said loudly, and at the same time, kicked the imaging device.
