Chapter 196 Undetected Wandering

Just at this location.

This is the cold underground abyss, the lower area of ​​the Refuge...

This place is really big. It can accommodate thousands of hairless creatures. There are also large places such as sports fields and squares. They will not feel uncomfortable living here.

However, everything here is now shrouded in extreme cold darkness.

The disc is now in the square in the shelter, and a large number of debris can be seen everywhere in the entire square. It may be because the temperature is too cold, and these debris have been completely frozen before they rot.

In the center of the square, there is a collapsed statue. According to the previous hairless creature, this statue belongs to the founder of the shelter.

And now there are a lot of snow mushrooms growing on the statue. These strange things are very similar to living things, but what they actually are is still unclear. Lin only knows that their composition is very similar to crystals. , very fragile and brittle.

Another kind of creature is the cold stone.

Lin saw a stone lying beside the statue.

There are many such creatures here. They often move around and may rest anywhere. Generally, they look like ordinary stones, but because there are no stones in the shelter, the stones here are all them.

The cold stone moves slowly, and it should not be the monsters that attacked the residents here.

Where are those monsters? This is not important, the important thing is... to find the reference room.

Lin had asked the creature about how they discovered the war, and it said that there was a 'pre-war data room' under the shelter, which contained a lot of relevant information.

and. It also gave Lynn something. This thing looks like a metal plate. However, one side can display images, which record their language vocabulary and pronunciation, and can learn their words.

Learning a language is easy if you have a good memory.

While learning these things, Lin also found the way to the reference room, which is in the corner of the square.

Before the disc flew to the passage of the reference room, Lin found that there were a lot of corpses piled up here, and they seemed to have suffered a large-scale slaughter here.

And none of their meat was eaten.

Instead, it was frozen. It seems that the residents here were thrown aside after being killed, which feels quite wasteful...

However, to Lin, they are nutrients that can be absorbed.

The disc flew towards the interior of the passage. The doors of the rooms on both sides of the passage were open. Under the light from the disc, the scattered debris and various daily necessities could be seen. These places seemed to have experienced it. had a fight.

But according to the hairless creature above, the main reason for their failure is... forgetting how to use weapons. As if forgetting to repair machinery, the inhabitants here also don't remember how to use weapons. While many weapons seem as simple as pressing a button, there are actually some complex operations...especially the more powerful ones.

So they can be said to have been attacked without any weapons.

Now, at the end of the passage, you can see the door to the data room.

This place is said to have stored a lot of technologies and materials that they used in the past, but the residents here gradually could not understand these materials, so the materials were sealed up.

‘Crack! ’

The disc slightly pressed a switch beside the door, the whole door opened slowly, and the disc flew into the data room...

It's very warm here, because Lin activated the hairless creature's cultivation tank before, and when it is activated, some functions of the shelter will be restored, such as the heating and lighting here.

Although it is relatively warm, it has not reached the temperature that melts the ice, so the residents here cannot continue to live without mutating.

Lin is also very interested in the virus that makes them mutate. Is its function to make the creatures here grow hair slowly, or does it allow them to adapt to the environment slowly? Although they all look similar, they are actually very different...

Generally speaking, some powerful viruses can quickly change the form of living things, but no virus can make living things change from 'random evolution' to 'non-complete random evolution', at least Lin has not found it yet.

In fact, Lin Du has not confirmed whether there are completely random multicellular organisms.

Now there are no traces of the virus on the long-haired creatures living above, so I don't know what the characteristics of this virus are. If you can find it, you can study it...

However, let's take a look at the data for now.

The things in the data room are basically in good condition. According to the hairless creature, every time it wakes up, it will activate the repair system here to keep the things here undamaged.

Ordinary residents are not qualified to enter here, so they will not freeze the things here, and the storage material is an object in front of the disc.

This kind of thing can be called a 'flat display device' and looks like a metal plate more than one meter wide.

Xumin also liked to use this kind of display device in the past, but now they basically use three-dimensional, even for some things that need to be operated on a plane, Xumin has to create a three-dimensional plane and operate on it...

And this kind of machine that can only display the screen on the tablet has been eliminated by the virtual people, but considering that this thing may be hundreds of years ago, the technology of this kind of creature should be stronger than the virtual people.

‘Di! ' Lin opened the display above.

According to the hairless creature, this operation is very simple, and the most amazing thing is that it has not been damaged after being placed for so long, and the virtual people will definitely not be able to do this.

It felt like reading materials in Xumin's academy. Lin quickly found a lot of materials. Originally, these things were 'encrypted', but now they have been unlocked by hairless creatures, so she can freely Check……

Here, Lin saw a lot of information, including the technical information of these creatures, etc., as well as various things in the past...

It turns out that they once built a huge city in this place. The structure of the city is very similar to that of the virtual people, but it seems that these creatures know how to protect their environment. A lot of plants are planted everywhere in their cities. Almost every building in the building is surrounded by a lot of vines, and it looks more like a forest.

That being said, there used to be many multicellular creatures that resembled the world of the Voidlings.

But the main thing is... It seems that there used to be sunlight here, so this place has a lot of creatures living.

But...they lost the sun later? This may also be a reason for the continued cooling after the war, why? This was supposed to be a world with stars, but it became a wandering world.

"What? Outside...no sun?"

So... Lin contacted the hairless creature, and there is something here that can communicate with it, but it seems that it is also very surprised by this kind of thing.

"How can there be no sun outside? Isn't it just that the sky is covered by dust?" Inside the communicator, its extremely surprised voice came.

This creature seems to have no idea what's going on outside...

So Lin said to it: "No, there is no sun outside, and there are no stars around your world. The nearest star is quite far away from here, and it will take many years to use light."

These creatures also have a long-term date calculation method similar to 'year', which is similar to the virtual people...

"No stars..." The creature seemed to be speechless in surprise.

After being silent for a while, it continued: "If it is said to be derailed, it is easy to understand...why is it so far away...it is impossible! Why is it like this?"

"I just wanted to ask you this." Disc said, "Do you know what happened at that time?"

"No..." It said: "When we hid in the shelter, we were completely disconnected from the ground... We just guessed what happened on the ground, and then tried to explore on the land, but when we went up, we were completely disconnected from the ground... It was quite difficult to find that the ground had been covered with a lot of snow and ice, and it was quite difficult to dig into it."

"Later we detected the outside environment through some detectors that were still on the ground. No sunlight was detected at first, so we thought that the war caused dust to cover the sky... How could this happen? We... feel everything here. No, did you read it wrong..."

"'Misreading' is a situation only for individual creatures." Disc said: "Since I don't know, let's talk about it next time..."

This is a wonderful event.

This tumbler has left its original star system, and the inhabitants of the shelter here feel nothing?

Maybe...something strange happened.

Now Lin continues to rummage through their information, and here is how they discovered the invasion.

The creatures that invaded them should be black metal, but does black metal have the ability to send their tumblers so far?

Moreover, black metal is so cautious when it invades the virtual people, why is it so direct when attacking this group of creatures?

In addition, Lin also wondered why the black metal did not go deep underground to find these shelters after attacking the ground...

However, the creatures here did find a black metal intrusion method, and these creatures used a special detector, a special detector capable of detecting the location of a black metal teleportation.

This particular detector can find where the black metals have been teleported and what they are teleporting to.

So, can they find the invasion prepared by black metal...? (To be continued..)
