Chapter 1581 Wandering
"You can be anywhere here, but please don't do anything...hostile."
It seemed like they trusted Lin.
This is even more...weird.
Not long ago, Pom Pom had a brief exchange with the 'commander-in-chief' of this place, and then he allowed Lin to roam around here.
There seemed to be no special restrictions on where she couldn't go, so Lin could move around as she pleased.
There must be something weird about them suddenly becoming so welcoming to Lin, but for now Lin doesn't really care, so she lets the pom-poms hang around here for a while.
Lin mainly wanted to know the specific situation of them, why they were here, and their relationship with Ersh, so Lin mainly wanted to find...the main trunk of this plant.
It is said that this plant grows throughout the meteorite area, like a vine, and all buildings and facilities are built around the 'branches and leaves' of the entire plant.
But this plant actually only has branches and no leaves. It is not a plant itself, but a... hybrid organism, like a bus-type organism and a gel organism. They all fall into this category, but its cyclic structure It was different from the hybrid creatures Lin had seen before.
However, Lin felt that it should be related to Ersh.
It is generally called 'Zanke' by the robots. It is said that it has different names among different races. The reason why the robots call this plant Zanke is because of their previous... a very famous story.
This story tells about a robber named Zanke. This robber accidentally obtained... plant seeds that are said to be able to grow above the clouds in the sky. So Zanke planted the seeds, which grew within a day and night. It grew into a huge vine that reached the sky.
Then Zanke climbed up to the clouds along the vines, and found a huge house on the clouds. He stole... a lot of valuable things in the house, and then climbed back along the vines.
When the occupants of the house came back and discovered that something had been stolen, it angrily climbed down the vines and chased Zanke, but Zanke quickly cut the vines off, causing the pursuer to fall to the ground to death, and then Zanke used the things it had stolen. It is really gratifying to live a happy life.
………………
This story is said to be very famous, so the robots here gave this huge plant growing in the meteorite area this name.
Lin didn't know why this bandit's story was so famous, although... the actual story did not mention that Zanke was a bandit, but Lin felt that what Zank did was no different from the definition of a bandit by ordinary creatures, so Just...think of it as a robber.
However, this story has nothing to do with the plant here. If you want to know the specific situation of this plant, you should go to...here.
A pom-pom, now stopped in front of a room.
Most of the rooms and passages are built within plants, and only a few are located in exposed... fruit-like objects.
The room that the pompom is now in is also inside the plant. It has a name and is called the 'Growth Monitoring Room'.
This place monitors the place where the plant 'Zanke' grows. When the pom-pom enters the room, you can see that there are many... metal columns.
There is a display screen on the surface of these metal cylinders, and a lot of data is displayed on it. There are several robots walking between these cylinders.
"Is it that something?" "Yes, it is that something..."
Two machines whispered a few words when they saw the pom-poms coming in, and then walked away as if nothing happened.
Lin didn't pay attention to them. The pom-pom slowly floated to a pillar and looked at the data on it.
It records a lot of detailed information, such as... information about the liquid flow rate, metabolism, microbial community, etc. inside the plant.
They closely monitor Zank's... health status here, and every moment of data changes will be recorded.
"Although we have been doing very detailed testing, it seems to be of no use." While watching, Pom Pom suddenly heard several machines nearby whispering.
"Yeah, we've been just recording data and not doing much."
"You two idiots, we are going to hand over the data to those things and let them deal with Zank's growth problem..."
What these machines said seemed to indicate that they only recorded data and did nothing else.
"To whom should I hand over the data?" So Lin asked the pom-poms to ask them this question.
"It's just..." a machine originally wanted to say, but it suddenly shut up after seeing the pom-pom. After hesitating for more than ten seconds, it said: "It's... those, those creatures."
After saying that, it ran away immediately, as did other machines.
Lin found that these machines seemed to have a... special attitude towards Lin, but the creatures they were talking about should be the creatures living on the plant with them.
The only creatures Lin sees here now are those species that specialize in labor like centipedes and robot humans, but there are many other creatures living here.
They are all far away, and Lin doesn't know much about them.
So Lin decided to learn about it now and learn about the history of these machine people.
Lin has not caught one for research yet, but Lin feels that besides this method, there are other ways to study these machines, and that is... in this place.
"Very good, your treatment is over. Pay attention to applying lubricant and pay attention to the dust mixed in when eating."
This place is called...the treatment room.
It's a big place, and you can see a lot of machines here, most of them sitting on long chairs, and... waiting anxiously.
These machines usually encounter various problems, so they need treatment. The pom-pom flew past the waiting area and flew directly to a room inside.
This room is called the data room. After flying in, Pom Pom rummaged through it and found a lot of physical information about these robots.
The machines in charge here all looked like they wanted to stop Pom Pom but didn't dare to, so Lin quickly read through the information.
It turns out that, as expected, these machines are all made according to the Ershimin. They also have the same... character as the normal Ershimin, and the body structure inside is also very similar. Although they are made of metal or other materials, But it was specially designed according to... Ershimin's circulatory system.
This seems to be because they themselves are Ershi people. (To be continued.)
