"Veronica? Are you sure we're going the right way? "
"…"
"Veronica, why is your hair moving?"
"Superpower."
"Wow, that's amazing. So, Veronica, have you been enhanced? The teacher said that our class hasn't been enhanced yet …"
"Are you going to keep following us?"
"Yes, yes, why do you ask? Veronica, don't you want me to follow you? Do you hate me? "
"No, but you might die."
"Oh, Veronica, you're joking again, but this isn't funny … Huh? What's this? "
In a woodland, two students who seemed to be about the same age stopped in their tracks because there was a … very large object in front of them.
"What's this? Who threw such a big piece of junk here? "
The student behind the spy walked over with a puzzled expression. This thing did look like a piece of junk because the metal of the Evaporators was like this … as if it had rusted.
It was hemispherical and seemed to be half-buried in the ground. The exposed part was very small, only twenty centimeters in diameter and ten centimeters in height. There were also many metal pieces stuck on this hemisphere.
It was the kind that Lin had crushed earlier.
"Is this a magnet? How did it melt? " The student was surprised because he saw that some of the metal pieces stuck on it would slowly sink into the sphere and disappear …
The student didn't dare to go over and touch it, but the spy walked over and used his hair to examine the metal.
This hemispherical object … was indeed something like a magnet. Lin felt that it was also a small part of a large object. Its function was to attract the small metal pieces around it and absorb them into it to fuse with it.
This gave Lin the feeling that a very large object had exploded here, and then its … parts were scattered all over here, and these parts were slowly gathering.
The gathering speed was very slow, probably because it was affected by something, because the whole of Ershi … was a place where teleportation was blocked. Perhaps the Evaporators here were 'unable to communicate with the outside world' or something like that.
"Be careful! Don't go near that thing! " A shout suddenly sounded, and a figure quickly jumped over from the trees in the distance.
It was holding a … blade in its hand and was wearing the academy's uniform. It seemed to be a student of the academy.
"Ah! That's a senior! "The student next to the spy immediately shouted," Look, it's wearing a senior's uniform! "
"Get out of my way!" The upperclassman, who was jumping from tree to tree, jumped down and stabbed his sword into the Transpiring Hemisphere on the ground. But before the sword hit, the Transpiring Hemisphere suddenly jumped up from the ground and dodged the attack.
"I won't let you escape!" The Scholar landed on the ground and swung his sword. The hemisphere that had just leaped into the air was cut in half. The remaining pieces fell to the ground.
"Hmph, there's almost nothing that can't be cut through by a single-molecule sharp blade!" The senior shook his head and put the blade back into the sheath.
"Wow! So handsome! Senior is so handsome! " The student next to the spy kept shouting, which made the senior's' complacent 'mood start to swell.
"Students, what are your names?" The senior asked the student and the spy as he picked up the pieces on the ground and put them in an iron box.
"My name is Bilu, and this is Veronica!" the student immediately said. "By the way, what was that just now? Why did the senior cut it?"
"This is a very dangerous thing," the senior said. "So I have to retrieve it. Because of this, your class must be suspended. I'll take you back."
"Is that so? No wonder Veronica just said that this metal piece will dominate the world … "the student named Bilu said." Is this true? "
"Oh? How much do you know? "the senior turned to the spy and asked.
"A little more than you," the spy said.
"…" The senior was silent, just looking at the spy, and the spy looked at him. The two of them looked at each other for a while until Bilu said, "What's wrong with you two?"
Only then did the senior turn his head and look away. "Forget it, let's go back first. The teacher and the other students are on their way back."
Just like that, under the senior's lead, the spy and Bilu quickly returned to the place where the airship was parked. There were already many students waiting here, and the half-machine-modified teacher was discussing something with a few senior students.
Although the other students could not hear them, Lin could hear what they were discussing. They were mainly talking about how many Steamed Metal Pieces had appeared in this forest, so they had to recall the students and send out troops to investigate and clean them up.
Interestingly, the troops they sent out were not soldiers but senior students. These students had been strengthened and modified, so they should be able to exert better combat power than ordinary soldiers.
However, in fact, some of the soldiers were strengthened, but they were fighting in the Void War, so there was not much difference.
If it was a small-scale battle, they could exert their body strengthening to the maximum extent.
Soon, after all the students returned, the teacher started the airship and took the students out of the forest.
After returning to the academy, the teacher said that today's class was over, so the spy returned to the dormitory. Tritty seemed to be doing something else and was not here, while Lin continued to study some microorganisms found in the forest and …
A Steamed Metal Piece.
It was picked up from the forest earlier, and this piece … did not have 'consciousness'.
Generally, Steamed Metal Pieces had self-moving … intelligence, but this piece did not. However, it had the ability to move. It could fly at high speed, and it could also use the tiny 'legs' around its body to move slowly.
It always wanted to move in one direction. Lin checked its internal system and found that it was receiving some kind of signal.
This signal reaction mainly came from the … forest. After sorting it out, she found that there were … tens of thousands of such signals in the forest, most of which were small pieces, and these small pieces were all gathering towards a hemispherical object.
The hemispherical object was gathering towards a few larger objects, and it was obvious that they were … combining.
Lin also noticed that some of the pieces were moving at a very fast speed into the distance. They should have been picked up by the academy's exploration team, but because there were so many of them, most of them were not affected and continued to move forward.
