It came from a faraway place …
Lin discovered a lot of secrets inside the white skeleton dragon's brain. Currently, Lin still couldn't directly read its thoughts, but she used a method to connect the white skeleton dragon to a dreamlike world, then this world would manifest various scenes based on its brain's reactions.
Just like Black Pepper, the skeleton dragon was now wandering in a realistic dream. It was now at the edge of a cliff, and this scene was very similar to what Black Pepper saw in his nightmare.
Perhaps this skeleton dragon was also like Black Pepper, going mad after being bitten by the brain-creating monster?
However, they did not seem mad, and there were quite a lot of them.
Even though there was nothing out of the ordinary around them, Lin could tell from the Skeleton Dragon's emotions that the place it lived was quite far from here … The Skeleton Dragon looked at the sea and felt a sense of nostalgia. Usually, such emotions would appear when a creature was reminiscing about its past.
At the same time, when it felt nostalgic, the skeleton dragon's body would secrete a corresponding substance. Lin only needed to inject it with a similar substance, and it would unknowingly recall its past.
Lin could use the memories of the White Skeleton Dragons to find out where they lived. These White Skeleton Dragons were obviously a little different from ordinary White Skeleton Dragons, but catching one or two of them was meaningless. Lin needed to find out where they gathered.
The skeleton dragon looked at the sea and walked to the edge of the cliff. Was the place where it lived going out to sea? Was it … another continent?
Or was it related to the brain-creating monster of the Atte tribe? After all, Black Pepper had always dreamed of the sea.
The skeleton dragon's residence could not be on another continent. However … Going out to sea was indeed necessary.
Lin saw a huge island suddenly rise up from the sea. This island looked incomparably huge in the dream, with grotesquely shaped mountain ranges, all kinds of plants, and some strange creatures flying around.
She did not know the size of the island, but it should exist.
The skeleton dragon looked at the island and suddenly walked forward. It walked out of the cliff but did not fall. Instead, it walked in the direction of the island.
The dream was based on the skeleton dragon's thoughts. If it believed that it could walk in the air, then this would happen, but the skeleton dragon should not know that it was dreaming.
The skeleton dragon walked across the sky and set foot on the island's beach. The beach was not made of sand or rocks, but was full of strange green plants.
Lin also saw some green jade running around on the ground. Was this a species unique to this island?
The skeleton dragon walked on the green ground and walked deeper. After passing through a strange forest of plants it had never seen before, the skeleton dragon walked into a clearing in the forest …
Here. There were also a few skeleton dragons of its kind.
The White Skeleton Dragon immediately walked up to them and started talking. They were using a language that Lin had never heard of before. Lin remembered that most White Skeleton Dragons liked to use sounds like "ga" to express various meanings, but this White Skeleton Dragon could use a complex language similar to the Emerald Dragon's.
As expected, it was very special.
Lin tried to understand what it meant. Combined with the feeling of its emotions, Lin knew that it was describing something that surprised it.
Lin saw … the Emerald Dragon, the standing scorpion, the pyramid, the split brain, and … the city of the Emerald Dragon.
So that's how it is … Lin felt that she could more or less understand now.
Lin had a speculation. Perhaps these skeleton dragons had developed to a similar degree as the emerald dragons, but they did not know about the development here. They only came here recently and were quite surprised.
But this was only a speculation, because there were no signs of the skeleton dragons building here. The island seemed to be completely covered in forests … There was no emerald dragon city.
But maybe they lived in trees? That was not very likely …
The skeleton dragons' language ability did indicate that they had more complicated behaviors, but how did they learn this? For example, the emerald dragons and skeleton dragons developed rapidly in a short period of time because Lin had specially taught them.
The "wild" skeleton dragons and skeleton dragons in the surroundings still maintained their previous state. They built small huts and lived in small communities without much progress.
Lin felt that the dwarfs developed much better than the skeleton dragons. If there was a skeleton dragon that had developed to a greater extent, then what was going on?
This problem seemed to be very obvious … It was the Atte Tribe.
However, the Atte tribe originally lived in the sea and had not been on this continent for long. Could they have created a group of skeleton dragons like this?
Or did the skeleton dragons become like this for some other reason? Maybe it had nothing to do with the Atte tribe, but they did respond to the split-brain brain's brainwaves.
The skeleton dragons' reason for looking for black pepper must have something to do with this. They also had a lot of questions, such as why they stayed on the island …
No matter what, they had to find this island. Lin planned to circle the entire continent. This island seemed to be near the coast.
The skeleton dragon was still talking to the same kind in its dream. It seemed to be talking about a lot of other things, but it was probably not important information.
"… Ga?"
In the next moment, the skeleton dragon opened its eyes. It saw that it was still in the pyramid, and a green head was looking at it …
"Ga!" The skeleton dragon was startled. It quickly tried to stand up, but found that it could not move its body. Its limbs were weak, and it could not move at all.
Lin gave it some paralyzing poison. Although this kind of White Skeleton Dragon seemed very special, in fact, their physique was almost the same as the common White Skeleton Dragons, including their brains. However, their muscles were weaker than the average White Skeleton Dragon and even the Emerald Dragon.
Lin did not plan to let it go yet. It was better to let it stay here and see if its companions would come to save it. Lin believed that there should be many of these skeleton dragons here, and they had split up.
"It's here … It's here!" A voice came from behind Lin. Black pepper was rummaging through the pile of split-brain brains on the ground. It seemed to be trying to find something, but it could not find it …
"Ga!" The Skeleton Dragon roared on the ground. It seemed to know that Lin, the Emerald Dragon, couldn't understand what it was saying, so it kept using 'quack' to express itself. However, Lin ignored it and left it there. She turned around and walked towards Black Pepper.
Lin saw that Black pepper had already dug through the pile of split-brain brains. However, it was not just a pile. There was a hole with a diameter of more than two meters in the ground, and the hole was filled with a large number of split-brain brains …
Lin Sanjiu did not know how deep the hole was. Where did Li Xie find so many split-brain brains? Did he catch a few brain-creating monsters and let them create more?
Most of these split-brain brains seemed to have died because they had been left here for too long. They could not get enough nutrients here, but because there were so many of them, the brainwaves they emitted were still strong.
Black Pepper kept digging inside, as if there was something inside.
Lin felt that the brainwaves inside were getting weaker and weaker. She guessed that all the split-brain brains inside were dead.
Lin watched as Black Pepper continued to dig until it reached a depth of two meters. She could smell the putrid stench coming from it, but Black Pepper still managed to dig out something special.
It was a huge crystal …
Wait, this was the mastermind of the Atte race!
Lin immediately jumped into the cave and looked at the large crystal that Black Pepper dug out. This thing was indeed the crystal used to store the Cortex Prime. She remembered that it was placed in a building in the center of the Mad Scorpions' city. Did the Scorpions take it out and put it here?
Of course, the brain was dead, just like when it was first discovered.
However, why did Li Xie put it here? It should not be able to emit any brainwaves …
Black pepper seemed to be very angry after finding the crystal. It grabbed a pile of nearby split-brain brains and smashed them on the crystal. However, the crystal used to store the mastermind was very hard. The split-brain brains shattered when they hit it. Then, Black pepper kept smashing the crystal with its hands. It did not stop until its hands were bleeding.
Black Pepper was really strange. When it first came here, Lin felt that it came with a 'worship' emotion. Why did it become angry after it arrived?
It was crazy. That was the only explanation …
"Gaaaaaah!!!" In the end, Black pepper even smashed its head on the crystal, but there was not even a crack on it.
"This thing … this thing …" Black pepper seemed to have given up. It looked at the crystal one last time, then turned around and curled up in a corner. It did not move anymore …
It gave up so quickly. Lin thought that it would die.
What should she do now? In any case, he had to find the White Skeleton Dragon's island first. However, compared to finding it himself, it was easier to follow them back. It would be great if other White Skeleton Dragons came to rescue this White Skeleton Dragon.
Or should she let it go back on its own?
Just as Lin was lost in her thoughts, a loud noise came from outside … Did a Skeleton Dragon really come?
Lin immediately crawled out of the hole and realized that it was not a Skeleton Dragon that came, but … a group of standing scorpions.
Most of the standing scorpions were carrying injured people on their backs. They looked like they were retreating from a battlefield. They placed the injured on the ground and ran out, as if they did not notice that the split-brain brains had been opened and the Skeleton Dragon was lying on the ground.
