Chapter 1073 Is This Really Necessary?

"We have to give it... Do we really have to do this? This is what has to happen..."

It's a vast, dark space.

The ground here is covered with circular shallow pits one after another. In each shallow pit, there is a creature called the cult.

Hundreds of cult creatures gathered here, and among the cult creatures standing in the pit, many of their young were running around.

The size of these cubs ranges from tens of centimeters to one meter. They can move freely here without entering the pit like adults.

Among these cubs, there is an individual called... a spy.

He is now hanging out with all the cubs, doing the same thing as them, which is...learning.

Not long after Lin came to this place, she learned that this place was called the "Head", a strange name, and that there were also hundreds of cult creatures gathered here.

They seemed to be holding some kind of strange ritual when they gathered here. After Lin did some research, she discovered that the ritual they were holding here was about the Transpirator.

They want to channel fear energy... into the Tranquilizer.

It seems that they have been hesitating about this action for a long time, and now even though they have gathered at the place where the ritual is to be performed, they are still hesitating here.

Lin has not yet figured out how they perform the ritual, so she is currently investigating. It is easy to investigate now, because the cub has a very... advantageous status.

No one gives special instruction to the cubs of the cult creatures. They all learn by themselves, and their learning process is to run around among adult individuals. And observe adult behavior and then understand and learn on your own.

Adults also don't restrict these pups from going anywhere...except dangerous places.

They can be moved around. Even in these seemingly important places. So now the spy is running towards the center of the place.

All the adult cult creatures here stay in a circular pit. Because half of their bodies are in the shallow pit, they look like tentacles lying on the pit.

This behavior doesn't seem to have any special effect, it's just some... symbolic actions.

It can be seen that the creatures of the cult are constantly communicating with each other.

They continued to touch the companions next to them, and the content of their conversations was almost all...

Indecision content.

They were all hesitant to do this, and all the creatures of the cult here started a discussion. But no result.

Lin's spy walked towards the center of the room while watching their discussion.

The center of the room has the most conspicuous... view. In the center, you can see something on the roof.

This thing looks like a pointed cone-shaped stone. It is more than six meters long. Its tip is pointed at the ground directly below, but there is nothing on the ground.

Lin's spy cub slowly walked under the cone, and from here he could feel that the cone was full of fear energy.

From the chats of the surrounding creatures of the cult, we can also know that this pointed cone is... an object used to inject fear energy, but there is no Transpirator seen here.

Thinking. Lin had the spy run to a nearby adult cult creature in the pit, touch it and ask, "Where is the Transpirator?"

Creatures of the Order do not refer to transpirants as transpirants. They have a special...vocabulary to describe the transpirators, and this vocabulary contains all kinds of complimentary meanings.

However, Lin would translate it as Transpirator.

"It's right below us," the Order creature responded to the spy, scattering some fragments in front of him.

Lin looked at the fragments and continued to ask: "If you do this, won't it object?"

"We live because of it, don't ask, observe more, and understand for yourself." The creatures of the cult dropped some new fragments, and this is the meaning inside.

Then, when Lin poked it again, it had no reaction.

It seems that Lin doesn't know enough about this kind of creatures. They are indeed weird. After reading some of their history, Lin found that although the cubs were learning everywhere, they didn't ask or communicate too much.

They all imagined and thought on their own, and when they grew up and joined the adult group, they did not show any discomfort.

This kind of creature looks very interesting, but Lin doesn't have much free time now to continue playing the role of a spy and experience their life, and now feels the need to solve the current problem.

If they really want to use fear energy to infect the transpired people, Lin currently thinks it is necessary to stop them.

No matter what kind of thing or creature the transpirator is, it must have a very strong ability, and if the fear energy can obtain this ability, it is equivalent to having a powerful weapon.

The question is, why is the fear energy not infected directly, but instead let these cult creatures come?

Lin's spy looked at the fear-filled cone on the ground. The cone was covered with dense micro-machines.

Although the cones are full of fear energy, these micro-machines are still not controlled by fear energy. Because the distance is very close, it can be detected that there is no fear energy in them, and they are still the kind of programmed machines.

This is very strange. Why doesn't fear energy directly control these machines?

"Now, there isn't much time left!"

While Lin was researching here, she suddenly received a... message.

This message should have been received by all the cult creatures present. This is a message similar to a broadcast, and its sender is an adult cult creature.

The difference between it and other cult creatures is that it is not in a shallow pit, but moves step by step towards the center of the room where the spy is.

It seemed to be very...prestigious. After receiving the information, other members of the cult stopped discussing with each other.

It reached the position where it was about to step on the spy and stopped. It ignored the spy, but spread out most of its tentacles, sending a signal to the cult creatures throughout the place: "We must start taking action. If If we don’t act during this time, our species will be completely destroyed.”

Lin's spy cub also has the same 'receiver' as this group of cult creatures, so it can receive its signal.

"It's been too long and we have to take action. Does anyone have any doubts?"

Although all the creatures of the cult have been chatting continuously from just now to now, now they all don't have any doubts.

No one of the same kind with objections was found, and the creature of the cult who was giving a speech said: "Then, let's do it now..."

Before it could finish speaking, its movements stopped, mostly because the spy poked it.

"Why do you have to do this? Is there no other solution?" Lin asked the spy to ask this question.

"It asked such a question..." The creature of the cult suddenly seemed to be frightened, and the message it sent contained... quite exciting emotions: "It actually asked such a question!"

As it spoke, it stretched out a tentacle, grabbed Lin's spy cub, and lifted it high into the air.

"Do you believe it? It actually asked me a question, it said..."

It sent the question Lin just asked it to the entire audience.

Suddenly, all the creatures of the cult in this place...except for the cubs, all became quite...surprised.

They began to discuss with each other fiercely, and they all discussed the same thing, which was why Lin's spy cub asked such a question.

Lin found it amazing that they actually reacted like this. Lin knew that their cubs rarely asked questions, but this shouldn't happen.

And what's even more amazing is that they were just discussing why the cub was acting like this, without suspecting that the cub was... a spy.

"Our population has become abnormal." The cult creature suddenly put the spy back on the ground, and then broadcast again: "So we must act earlier!"

"For the sake of our future and our spirit, we must sacrifice our faith!"

After it finished speaking, all its tentacles trembled, and at the same time, it also spun three times on the ground.

All the cult creatures present also turned three times in their pits upon seeing this.

Their behavior seemed to activate some... mechanism. The pointed cone-shaped object in the center of the room began to slowly move downwards, as if it was about to stab the ground.

It seems that they are planning to start this ceremony.

Although many issues have not yet been clarified, Lin believes that when this pointed cone object touches the ground, it is likely to transmit the fear energy inside into the ground.

And if the Transpirator is really underground, it will obviously be affected, so... something must be done.

'boom! ! ! ’

The sound of an explosion suddenly sounded, and it was not Lin's doing.

Because Lin's cub spy also flew out due to the impact of the explosion. When the spy stabilized his body, he had already seen the pointed cone-shaped object explode.

Its crumbs were scattered all over the floor, and all the surrounding creatures of the Order looked on in amazement.

Their surprised emotions have a very obvious 'expression', that is, some of the tentacles on their bodies will twitch involuntarily.

And what caused the explosion was not something else, but... the creature that just gave a speech.

Lin saw it rushing forward and colliding with the sharp cone.

Because there is a self-destruction function in the body of the cult creature, and it just activated this self-destruction function, blowing itself and the cone to pieces.

However, one tentacle remained, twisting on the ground and continuing to send signals around.

"Sacrificing faith...that's your business...I won't...do that." (To be continued.)
