"Our civilization has already developed to a very high level, and the rate of progress is getting faster and faster."
"But the more we know, the more insignificant we find ourselves."
"We need to find a way out …"
…
"Killed."
"Killed? Veronica, what was killed? "
This place was … a cave.
Lin's Veronica and Bilu had just found this place in the Gravel Wasteland, so they stayed here to rest for the time being.
While staying here, Lin was also paying attention to the situation in the distance, which was the ball of fur she had just sent out.
While the ball of fur was observing the activities of the group of 'rats', it discovered that a cloud of fog was approaching it. This cloud of fog … was actually very dangerous.
It enveloped Lin's fur ball and attacked the fur ball's skin from the outside.
In fact, its method of attack was very simple, which was … an explosion.
This cloud of fog would constantly self-destruct, blowing up the fur ball from the outside. Because the fur ball did not have any special defensive abilities … it was easily destroyed.
However, Lin felt that what was even more interesting was that when this cloud of fog approached, Lin would feel a 'cold' feeling.
In fact, this feeling wasn't really cold. It was a feeling similar to coldness from an emotional level …
This effect was very interesting, and Lin wanted to study it more, but the cloud of fog blew up the fur ball.
Lin had seen many similar clouds of fog before, but none of them were offensive, while this cloud of fog was offensive … but Lin felt that they were all similar.
Because before the cloud of fog was blown up, Lin also examined the characteristics of these clouds of fog. They were actually … very similar to the shadows of the Corpse Craftsman Worms.
They should be a phenomenon unique to the local creatures. Their bodies originally contained many fine particles, which would float out under certain circumstances.
The Corpse Craftsman Worms seemed to be able to control these particles to float out, while other creatures such as the rats could not.
Lin also noticed that the clouds of fog they produced would float to the same place.
"Veronica, there are a lot of … ghosts outside."
Lin heard Bilu's voice, so she also walked towards Bilu's location – the entrance of the cave.
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, she could see large clouds of fog in the sky. They were flying in groups across the Wasteland, and all of them were flying in the same direction.
Their target could also be seen here.
It was a huge rock more than a hundred meters away. The rock was more than ten meters tall and six meters wide. It looked like a pillar with many holes on it, and the fog was drilling into the holes.
"This is quite spectacular, Veronica …" Looking at the mist floating in the sky, Bilu sighed, because this phenomenon … is indeed quite special.
"Who … are you?"
A voice suddenly came from behind Lin and Beelu, it came from an Ershi Min.
This Ershi Min … It was dragged all the way here by Lin. It finally woke up.
With a doubtful expression, it walked behind Lin and asked: "Where is this place? What exactly am I … "
"… It seems to be fine." Lin poked its head and said, "Don't you feel any strong thoughts?"
"Strong thoughts? What does that mean? "
It seems this Ershi Min … perhaps because it had left the village, it did not have the 'symptoms' of recovering its memories.
Back when they were still in the village, they would recover their memories after coming into contact with the protective suits. However, that was not all, there were also some other side effects.
That was to give rise to a very strong desire … to make them want to run out.
This thought was not caused by the protective suits, but rather … something there.
There were many other creatures there, not just rats. However, the other creatures were not so conspicuous …
Lin had a feeling that some of the houses there were 'alive'.
"Do you remember everything now?" Bilu asked the Ershi Min: "For example, who are you?"
"I … I remember!" Ershi Min suddenly spoke up with great excitement: "We were locked up, and then …"
The Ershi Min recalled everything that happened before, and it was similar to what Lin knew.
That is … they were locked up, then encountered creatures that came to them to discuss civilization, then lost their memories, until now …
Recalling the recent events, the Ershi Min uttered a cry of surprise.
"Then we were attacked, and then … what is going on? How did I get here? "
"You were dragged here by us," said Beeru, giving the Irsh citizen a brief account of what had happened.
The more the Ershi Min listened, the more surprised it became, and a sad expression appeared on its face: "This … could it be that my companions are already …"
"Yes, those little rat-like creatures are too …"
Suddenly, a tremor interrupted Bilu's voice.
Following the tremor, the floating fog in the sky also … changed, their flying speed became much faster.
They were almost twice as fast as before, flying towards the stone with many holes in it …
As for the stone, it had also undergone some changes.
It began to shake, and cracks quickly spread around it. It looked as if a large part of the stone was underground, and it was now twisting its body to get out.
"Boom!" Accompanied by another tremor, those cracks exploded.
The stone … also rose up from the ground. Along with it, the enormous … body that was buried underground also rose up.
It looked like a huge … creature.
The creature was like a small mountain, more than 30 meters tall, and its appearance was very similar to … a creature called a negative bug.
However, its skin was the same color as the surface, and it looked like it was made of rocks.
There were many protruding rocks on its back, and the largest one was the one that stood on the ground and many fog balls flew into.
Because of the numerous rocks on its back, Lin thought it looked like a negative bug.
Otherwise, it was just a bug.
It was buried in the ground just now, and only the largest part was exposed above the ground, and it seemed to be used to collect fog balls.
It was unknown whether it was used for eating or for some other purpose.
"It … it's it!" Seeing the creature that looked like a negative bug, the Ershi Min standing behind Lin and Bilu was very … excited.
"It's the one that discussed civilization with us before!"
"What? It's it? "Bilu was confused:" Are you sure it's this … monster? "
