"They … trapped us …"
Amidst the remains of the creatures, Lin was … slowly wandering.
Because too much time had passed, there was no information to be found from them.
However, there was still a lot of information around them.
That was some … recording devices around these corpses.
This kind of recording device was quite interesting. It was probably used to record things for a long time. Their recording method was very similar to … the model of the desert.
It looked like a square full of buttons, and it was a bit like the computer Ershi Min used in the past.
By hitting the buttons on the surface to input information, then the inside would synthesize … physical words.
If there were no accidents, these words could be preserved for a long time.
It recorded what happened when the investigation team members of this aircraft came here. After they came here, they wanted to secretly send the investigation here to the Empire like before, but they found that the signal was blocked.
So they wanted to leave this place and send elsewhere, but they found that … they couldn't get out.
When they wanted to fly out of this little Tumbler, it was as if there was a huge gravitational force pulling them, making them unable to go far away.
They found that they couldn't leave no matter what, and there was no way to send out the information … They lived here in despair.
When the food in the aircraft was slowly consumed, they also fell down one by one due to physical exhaustion.
However, they still tried to use this' physical recording device 'to record everything they knew. This way, the Empire could still find out in the future.
What was special here was that when the team members starved to death one by one, they almost didn't … eat their own kind or kill each other.
The last team member to die … was a cellular creature.
Cellular creatures seemed to be the most resilient among most of the team members here. The other species didn't seem to be so resilient.
This team member who survived until the end was in a coma because of hunger. Once, when it woke up, it saw …
A pioneer.
This pioneer slowly approached the little Tumbler from the air and illuminated it with a strong … beam of light.
Under the illumination of the pioneer, the last team member suddenly had such an idea. It tried to start … the aircraft.
Because it was in the cockpit at that time, it only needed to do a little bit to make the aircraft take off.
This time, the aircraft was not bound by the gravitational force, but directly flew far away from the little Tumbler.
The team member finally understood that it was the Harbinger's doing that prevented them from escaping … But why was the Harbinger able to trap them?
There had to be other creatures who wanted to trap them in order for the Harbingers to act in the name of helping other creatures achieve their wishes.
Did anyone in the Empire want them to be trapped? That shouldn't be possible, because this investigation team … is very secretive.
No one knew that they were investigating this place.
If that was the case, could it be that the Forerunners … had ignored their restrictions and forcefully trapped them here?
Why was the Pioneer like this …
This team member had these two thoughts before he died.
One was a strong desire to survive. It really wanted to live.
There was also a strong desire to know the truth.
And the Pioneer here also knew of these two thoughts.
According to the rules … or perhaps it should be called a curse, it had to carry out its thoughts.
Often when the Pioneer is forced to implement a creature's ideas, it will implement the most inconsequential ones.
For example, when a creature desired a high status, a large amount of wealth, or wanted to go to the toilet … the Forerunner would fulfill the wish of going to the toilet, even if the Forerunner did not do anything. As long as it went to the toilet, it would be fulfilled.
But currently, the team member only had these two thoughts, and the Pioneer had to fulfill one of them.
The Pioneer did not choose to let it live. Instead, it chose to tell it … the truth.
After the Pioneer told it the truth, it did not die. Instead, it entered the truth into the recording device next to it.
Then it … died.
Later, for some unknown reason, the aircraft flew back to the Little Tumbler, but the things inside were not touched at all.
So, Lin could find … the truth here.
There was not much truth in the recording … the Pioneer told the last team member that they had arrived at this place …
It was very dangerous.
So, the Pioneer had no choice but to ignore its' curse 'and use some method to trap them here.
But this could not last for too long. But generally speaking, it could last until they all starved to death.
When the time was up, the Pioneer thought that they had all starved to death and came here to undo the restriction.
But unexpectedly … there was one creature that did not die.
Because the entire team was very united and loving, they did not kill each other or eat each other to survive. In the end, they more or less … hugged each other and died with hope.
Only the last team member did not have so much … love.
In the entire investigation team, it was the only one that ate the corpses of its companions, so it lived the longest.
Although the Pioneer had counted the time it ate the corpses of its companions, the calculation was not so … accurate.
Or rather, there was no way to calculate it accurately because it was difficult to know how long this creature could live.
And the Pioneer's restriction had a time limit. When the time came, it had no choice but to come here to undo it …
The Pioneer told it that if it let them leave at that time, the situation would become very serious.
The entire white passage would undergo drastic changes because of this, and unpredictable consequences would occur.
