"Stop … stop …"
It really stopped.
This was a … kingdom located on a star.
That was what Lin called it for the time being.
Not long ago, the comet drill was pushed by a large group of 'pixies' and several burning chickens towards a platform that appeared to be … a platform used to dispose of waste.
When they were about to reach the platform, Lin detected the signals of the burning chickens.
In fact, they were sending out signals that were directing the comet to move forward. The signals were similar to the language of some frozen creatures.
Lin's pom-poms could also imitate them … so Lin had the pom-poms send out a signal for them to 'stop'.
Then, they stopped. After the signal was sent out, Lin felt a change in the gravitational force around her. Then, the pixies placed the comet drill on a platform below and flew away.
This platform … gave Lin the impression that it was an 'ice skating rink'. The ground was as cold and smooth as ice. At the same time, there were many creatures that were skating around here.
These creatures that were 'skating' here … appeared to be Phoenix.
They were over one meter in size and appeared to be spreading their wings as they glided quickly across the ground.
The group of Phoenix were very interested in the comet drill that was suddenly placed here. They all glided over and surrounded the drill to observe it. However, they did nothing else.
Thus, Lin was more concerned about … the burning chickens.
They did not fly away like the pixies. Instead, three of the burning chickens landed before Lin's pom-poms. One of them sent out a signal to the pom-poms. "Test learning ability."
"Test your learning ability, your understanding of the meaning, and your perception range. Follow my movements."
After saying those strange words, the burning chicken began swaying left and right on the spot.
"…" The pom-poms observed for a moment and also swayed left and right.
"Able to learn!" "Able to learn!" "Requesting to be taught, requesting to be taught!"
After the pom-poms swayed for a bit, the chickens became very excited. They began to send out a wide range of signals. Soon, Lin saw something flying over from the distant sky … a metal object that was over ten meters in size. From the outside, it appeared to be a box.
"Wait here. Begin teaching." After saying that, the three burning chickens flew away. As for the metal box, it landed before the pom-poms.
"Assembling structure with intimacy. Arranging sequence. Be sure to wait."
The boxes sent out a series of signals … In fact, they had been using a frozen biological language.
Ten seconds later, Lin noticed that the top of the metal box opened up, and a … velvet ball floated out.
It seemed to have created an exact replica of the Linden Pompon.
However, this pom-poms looked like they were made of pure silver metal. There were many tiny metallic structures on its skin that acted as fluff. Just like Lin's pom-poms, the pom-poms walked down from the box and approached the pom-poms.
"I'm an educator." After the metal pom-pom stood still, it said: [Through simple information, I'll let you understand everything here. Repeat after me to show that you've understood. Point to the target and make a preliminary judgment]
As it spoke, the metal ball used a … fluff to point down and said, "The ground."
"…" Lin's velvet ball didn't move, but the metal velvet ball replied: "Repeat to show that you understand"
"The ground," Lin repeated after it.
"It's good that you can understand." Then the metal ball pointed at some small objects on the ground that looked like ice chips and said, "Small pieces."
"Small pieces" the metal velvet ball repeated after her.
Then, it pointed at a Phoenix that was skating nearby and said, "Inferior skating species."
"… Inferior skating species."
It then pointed at the bus drill and said, "Large-scale waste material."
"… It's not a waste material" the metal velvet ball said.
"Able to judge the meaning and form its own opinion" the metal velvet ball said, "Carry out a deeper education."
Then it pointed at the ground and said, "Give the inferior skating species an area on the ground where they won't be so inferior anymore"
"…"
After that, it and Lin … talked for a long time.
In general, it was teaching Lin what the objects around her were called. If Lin had any opinions on what the objects were called … it would give a deeper explanation.
So after talking for a while, Lin understood why it called the Phoenix that was skating 'inferior'.
Because they … couldn't fly.
Flying in this place wasn't a normal flight, the main thing was to grasp the direction of the 'gravitational flow' and understand how to control it.
This was a relatively complicated technique, and according to the metal velvet ball, some individuals were born with this technique, while others were born without it.
Those that were born without this technique would be called 'inferior' regardless of whether they learned it or not.
And 'skating' in this place would help them learn how to fly, because the ground here wasn't made of ice, but rather a unique substance.
While they were skating, they would leave a lot of debris on the ground, and when these debris entered their bodies, it would improve their senses and give them the ability to control the gravitational flow.
But no matter what, they would still be 'inferior', and that wouldn't change.
After that, Lin asked the metal velvet ball about the specifics of this place. It … didn't seem to be able to tell Lin that.
It could only point out what the objects around it were used for, and couldn't explain too deeply. For example, when Lin asked about the history of these 'inferior' Phoenix, it couldn't answer.
In the end, the metal velvet ball acknowledged Lin's velvet ball as … a 'primary resident' and arranged for her to live in a nearby residence.
As for the comet drill, under Lin's … persuasion, it acknowledged that it wasn't a waste material, but it also said that it had to be placed in the 'garbage dump'.
It felt like they didn't like the comet drill, and for some unknown reason, they didn't intend to investigate it.
So, Lin decided to go to the residential area first.
The residential area seemed to be a more interesting place, because it was said that there were more residents here, and there should be more people to communicate with.
Then, the metal velvet ball gave Lin a map of the nearby area. Lin originally thought that it would be able to fly her there, but it couldn't.
But it said that Lin could jump between platforms, because each platform had its own gravitational force, and jumping a short distance would bring her to another platform.
