This was a faraway world outside of the Void.
A grey sandstorm raged in the air, countless grains of sand hit the broken metal with a 'bang bang' sound. There was no movement on the endless grey plains, and there was no sunlight. Under the shroud of darkness, everything was frozen by the cold.
This place looked like an abandoned world. There were some creatures running on this gray plain, but they were just illusory illusions.
On the huge body of the Void Iceberg, Lin looked down at the scenery of the Tumbler. This place … was actually nothing.
The scavengers looking for food, the dust from hunting, and the leaves hidden underground … none of this was real.
These creatures only appeared in the dream that the spiral creature showed Lin. In the real world, there were no living creatures …
However, their environment was the same. This was a land where sandstorms were constantly blowing, and there were countless pieces of metal and gravel on the ground. But in the same environment, there were only living creatures in the dream.
When the spiral creature showed the furball the dreamscape, Lin also saw the scene in the real world. When the two scenes overlapped, Lin mistakenly thought that there were living creatures in the real world …
Normally, Lin would need to enter a deep sleep state to enter the dreamscape. At that time, she wouldn't be able to observe the real world, and could only observe certain places through some maps created in the dreamscape.
But this time, when the spiral creature sent a message to the furball, Lin didn't directly enter a deep sleep state. Instead, she used the furball to directly convert the message into an image of the real world.
This way, she didn't need to sleep to see the real world and the dreamscape. This was to prevent her from staying in the dreamscape for too long like last time when she dealt with the creator. The problem of 'oversleeping' occurred.
But this time, there was a new situation … While Lin was looking at the dreamscape, the new Tumbler who arrived at the Void Iceberg was also looking at the same scene. When the two scenes overlapped, Lin noticed that there were also living creatures on the other side.
But soon, Lin was able to distinguish them. The creatures on the other side were just illusions, and their movements were exactly the same as the creatures in the spiral creature's dream.
This seemed to be the first time this happened, and after distinguishing them. The illusions on the other side of the Void Iceberg also slowly disappeared.
Lin felt that this state could be used to indicate the location of the dreamscape. If Lin saw the same illusions in the real world when she was looking at the dreamscape, it meant that the dreamscape was the real place.
She could use this state to investigate some things in the future.
Speaking of which, if the Void Iceberg arrived at the same place as the spiral creature's message, why were there no living creatures on it? 'What happened …?'
Because the spiral creature's message might have been a long time ago … But now, it seemed that the environment didn't change.
Some of Lin's troops had already climbed down the Void Iceberg. To explore the environment..
They were called 'simulated leeches', a species that Lin created by imitating the leeches inside the Void Iceberg. These leeches were able to live inside the iceberg without being attacked by immune creatures, but they only lived on the outer layer of the iceberg.
However, the appearance of these troops allowed Lin to float out of the Void Ice Mountain at any time to observe the Rollers that had arrived.
'Iceberg 371', this was a rare Tumbler.
Although they didn't look like living creatures as Lin expected. But there was indeed air here. It was a kind of gas that Lin had never seen before. It was harmful to the pompom creatures, but it wasn't fatal.
There wasn't any moisture in the air, nor were there any microorganisms. Instead, there was a large amount of debris, which was similar to the storm on the blue moon. But the amount of debris wasn't as much as the moon …
If one looked up from the ground, they would see the sun's shadow among the drifting dust, but it looked small and weak. Its light couldn't illuminate this place.
Perhaps it was because it was too far away.
But how big was this place? Lin didn't know, but the gravity should be quite small. The simulated leeches were able to quickly crawl on the ground, and they felt quite relaxed.
They were looking for any living creatures among the debris. But after the illusions disappeared, Lin didn't see any of them …
On the other side, in the dream created by the spiral creature, Lin saw a large number of creatures. Countless scavengers were running around among the debris. They seemed to be the dominant creatures in this place.
What Lin was concerned about was the form of these creatures. For example, the scavengers looked like they were made up of several metal rods, but Lin felt that they were … a composite.
There should be a 'main body' in the metal rod that acted as the spine. Lin didn't know what it looked like, but if it was a controller, it wouldn't be able to live in such an environment.
The spiral creature didn't seem to have any intention of explaining. It continued to transmit information to Lin, and Lin asked it a few questions.
"Where is this' birthplace 'of yours?" "Are the creatures inside a composite?" "What did you do to the hero?"
The spiral creature remained silent and didn't answer all of Lin's questions.
It was as if it had hesitated for a long time before deciding to send Lin this information.
Since it didn't answer, Lin had to investigate on her own, although she didn't know if it would tell her the truth …
The spiral creature was very good at deception. It had been using all sorts of methods to prevent Lin from finding it. If Lin could read its emotions, it would be easy to know if it was lying, but not knowing anything now was troublesome.
However, it seemed like its reluctance to answer was greater than its desire to deceive.
In the distant void, the simulated leech found something among the metal debris. It looked like the body of a 'scavenger', a metal rod with a few legs around it.
It was a pity that the metal rod was empty, but that was to be expected.
Normally, fossils left behind by living creatures were skeletons. Some cellular information could be seen in the bones, but this one didn't seem to have any information …
Lin believed that this was indeed a composite creature. The 'main body' inside controlled the metal shell, so the leech should be able to find the components of the shell from the debris around it …
The leech's nutrients couldn't be obtained from the debris, so it had to find something that looked like a rock.
This kind of rock … seemed like it could still be found here.
A simulated leech flipped open a pair of debris. Lin found a half-spherical rock underneath, and the rock was slowly moving.
Lin had seen this creature before. It was the creature known as a 'frost stone'. This creature was surrounded by rocks on the outside, and an extremely low temperature liquid structure on the inside.
More importantly … Lin had seen it at the first Tumbler in the Void Iceberg, the 'Iceberg Type-1', and this was the 'Iceberg Type-371'. She didn't know how far the two were from each other.
It was impossible for the two places to have the same creature, so these frost stones might have been brought here by the Void Iceberg.
When the Void Iceberg came into contact with the ground, some of the cold stones might have been sent flying and bounced onto the Void Iceberg's body. Although they moved slowly, their gripping ability was very strong, so they might have been brought to other rollers.
However, Lin believed that the origin of the 'frost stones' might not be the Iceberg Type-1, but here.
In the dream given by the spiral creature, the scavengers only ate the frost stones while the other creatures fed on the scavengers. It could be said that the frost stones were the lowest level creatures, and they supported the ecology of this place.
Even though they hadn't explored the other parts of this Tumbler, Lin believed that all the creatures here should be the same. Their structure could be compared to the 'frost stones'.
Therefore, this place could be the origin of the frost stones, and all the creatures here had the same structure.
They could only live in low temperature, and if they were brought to a pompom, they might boil or even vaporize.
If the spiral creature said that it once lived in this place, then why was its structure completely different from the frost stones? Whether it was the internal composition or something else …
From what Lin had seen so far, every creature in the Tumbler had the same basic structure, just like a pompom or a moon. Whether it was an atmospheric creature or a sponge, they were all made of the same basic material, and there was no creature with a different material.
Therefore, the spiral creature shouldn't have been born in the Iceberg Type-371, but it must have been here before, or else it wouldn't have been able to provide the same dream information as the real world …
This creature was getting more and more suspicious.
Maybe it was like the Void Iceberg, wandering in the void, and its' mother 'created it in the Type-371 Tumbler. Or maybe it wanted to hide its real birthplace, so it randomly found a place in its memory and said it.
There were too many possibilities, and it was very troublesome to judge.
And now it seemed that it wasn't willing to say anything, so there was no way to know more details. The only clue was that the pompom had found a large number of cells in an oval-shaped object …
Lin had already analyzed the nuclear information of some of the cells, and compared it with the nuclear information of all the cells she had seen so far.
Lin had recorded the nuclear information of all the creatures she had encountered so far, and she found that the nuclear information of these cells was very similar to that of a certain creature …
No, it should be said that it was exactly the same, only the outer layer was slightly different.
Now, Lin could almost confirm what it was …
