"I wonder what's going to happen tomorrow …"
"I hope it's something good."
"Yeah …"
They … seemed to have experienced this many times already.
A large number of Ershi Min were either huddled together or curled up on the street to sleep.
While they were sleeping, Lin … continued to investigate the situation here.
She was now able to confirm that although the surrounding buildings appeared to be housing, they were all … used to modify Ershi Min.
The captured Ershi citizens would have their limbs and bodies cut off, and then they would be mechanized. There was a huge … tunnel system under these buildings, and mechanical parts were transported in the tunnels.
Since most of the Ershi Min's body had been cut off, the meat that was cut off would not go to waste. Instead, the meat would be processed by the buildings and made into various foods for the Ershi Min to eat.
However, because all the Ershi Min here knew about this, many of them were unwilling to eat it. Even so, some couldn't help but eat it because the food here was quite delicious. Compared to the steamed buns from the Coal Worm Factory, the food here was very suitable for the Ershi Min's taste.
Even so, many of them were unwilling to eat their own kind … but Lin assumed that they didn't notice that in addition to meat … many other foods, such as bread and fruits, were also made from Ershi Min's meat.
It was just that they didn't look like meat.
Of course, it wasn't all Ershi Min's meat, there were other ingredients mixed in as well.
In short, the main task of the Ershi Min here was not to work, but rather to deal with new situations every day.
Every day, when day came, this place would … announce the 'rules' of the day.
There were many rules. For example, the Ershi Min that Lin had seen earlier had to continuously walk during the day … if they stopped for even a moment, they would be caught and modified.
At the same time, there were also other rules, such as no excretion during the day, no noise and other strange rules.
As long as they violated the rules, they would be modified into mechanical citizens and launched out.
However, this wasn't all bad. There were also good things that happened. For example, sometimes the buildings would produce a large amount of delicious food. Sometimes, the Ershi Min would be sent to the amusement park to play. Sometimes, they would be electrocuted to stimulate their nerves and make them feel happy.
The amusement park seemed to be in another place. Lin noticed that a few Ershi Min had memories of the amusement park.
In short, the Ershi Min here would have all kinds of experiences … Of course, they would not like this kind of thing.
However, they had no choice. Just like the people in the factory, they had to experience these things.
But why was that? Lin … She asked Phoenix who liked to play the role of a hero.
Lin had woken it up not long ago.
However, Phoenix expressed that it wasn't sure. But it did know that … all the Ershi Min had been 'allocated'.
The Ershi Min who worked in the Coal Worm Factory were part of it. There were many other Ershi Min who were assigned to different places to do different things.
Most of them were things that caused them pain, but Phoenix did not know what was going on outside of the factory.
Lin could only learn from it that all the Ershi Min on the fake Ershi … were now assigned to different tasks.
It seemed that Midgard was doing something big and needed them … So, Lin continued to observe the situation.
The night slowly passed and the day arrived.
As the sky slowly brightened, the Ershi Min quickly got up. At the same time, Lin heard a loud voice resounding throughout the place.
"Today's rule is … your feet are not allowed to leave the ground. No part of your feet is allowed to leave the ground by more than five centimeters."
This rule … simply put, the Ershi Min had to stay where they were. Compared to yesterday's rule, this should be quite simple.
While the Ershi Min stayed where they were, Lin had several flying squirrels fly towards the source of the broadcast.
During the night, Lin had used the … nutrients on the ground to create many different types of soldiers. They were now roaming around the area.
The most conspicuous buildings in this place were some tower-like buildings. The broadcast was also coming from these buildings.
Now, Lin's three flying squirrels had flown to a tower that was about sixty meters tall.
The tower appeared to be made of rocks and had a diameter of over 10 meters. However, the outer shell was not strong. Lin had the flying squirrels … bite a hole in the wall and enter.
The interior of the tower was divided into many floors. Each floor was like an Ershi Min's bedroom. The bedroom was filled with simple mechanical equipment.
There was also a broadcasting system. At the same time, Lin also found a video recording system …
It was used to record the situation of the Ershi Min here. The rules that they experienced and the situations that they encountered were all recorded here.
For example, the mistakes that the Ershi Min made would be recorded here.
Interestingly, Lin also found another record. That was … the Ershi Min's experience of the rules … what kind of effect did it have on the solidified void?
After reading that, Lin was able to figure out the purpose of this place.
The purpose of this place was to use the Ershi Min as an experiment. They would have them experience various extreme situations to see if it would affect … the solidified void.
That was because the remains of the dead in the normal void would cause the solidified void to form a deathly still field … thus, the Ershi Min here were also used as an experiment. They would experience various extreme situations to cause the solidified void to form something similar to a deathly still field.
From the records, it could be seen that under one of the extreme rules, the Ershi Min here would feel extremely uncomfortable, causing the solidified void to produce … some sort of 'ripple'.
The ripple was very small. It was far from having such a large area of effect compared to the still field. Thus, the experiment continued.
It would continue to change the rules. Sometimes, the rules would repeat themselves. Sometimes, the repetition of the rules would produce a bigger 'ripple'.
However, the experiment would only stop when the ripple was big enough … in other words, the place where the still field was formed.
At the same time, Lin also found out that …
The formation of the deathly still field was not a 'natural phenomenon' caused by the solidified void. Rather, it was caused by some sort of creature or object.
The continuous experiment of the rules here was to lure out or investigate this creature.
That was quite interesting. However, if that was the case, did it mean that Midgard did not know the reason behind the formation of the still field? Was that why they were conducting the experiment here?
Lin also found out that the system could investigate many other things, such as the situation in other places.
In short, it was as Phoenix had said …
Tens of billions of Ershi Min were all used as' hard labour 'in the solidified void.
