The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2008 Takeoff
"Take off! Veronica-san!"
Looking at the earth slowly disappearing into the distance, Lin and Bilu...once again boarded the aircraft heading towards the sky.
This plane flew to a city on another continent.
In that city, there is a research team base that has not yet been evacuated.
Not long ago, Lin and Bilu dealt with the Ershi people who attacked the villa, and discovered from their memories... that they had received an order, which was to attack Lin and Bilu... and everything related to the research team.
They are not the same terrorists as before, but a criminal group in the vicinity.
This group was originally connected to the research team, but it seems that for some reason... they suddenly want to attack the research team.
I just don't know the specific reason.
However, because the research team's base had been evacuated, they were unable to find the research team. Instead, they somehow found Lin and Bilu, who had some connection with the research team, and then attacked the villa.
But that's all they remember, they don't know much.
So, Lin and Bilu decided to find the last research team base to see if they could find anything there.
"Veronica-san...if this world is attacked, will you protect it?"
While Lin was thinking, Bilu, who was sitting next to her, suddenly said, "I know, Veronica... is from somewhere else... I really like the time when we had adventures together... I also like the time when we spent our leisurely days together in the academy."
"So, I..." Bilu said and suddenly stopped: "Sorry, just think of it as me talking to myself."
"...This world will protect itself." Lin said: "I am just observing it."
"Really?" Bilu said, "No matter what, we have to be together..."
While chatting with Bilu about these...wonderful things, while looking at the scenery outside, the plane soon arrived at the landing site...
This city is also a developed city. After leaving the airport, you can see bustling streets and... strongholds.
The research team's base is very close to the airport. From the outside, it looks like just an ordinary...exhibition hall.
The name is a bit strange, it is called the 'Exhibition Hall of Everything', and it feels like everything is on display. In fact, from the outside it is also a very large place, and its shape is very much like a huge hemispherical building, somewhat like the amusement park in Tiangong City.
When they arrived at the entrance, Lin and Bilu could still see quite a few tourists walking in...it seemed that the place was not going to be closed at all.
Therefore, Lin and Bilu also entered this place.
After purchasing the ticket and entering the gate, the first thing you see is a vast space with exhibition items placed everywhere.
They really have everything on display, like dinosaur skeletons, old-time vehicles, antiques, and some modern sculptures.
It looks like a bunch of unrelated things mixed here, but it attracts a lot of visitors, many of whom take photos here non-stop.
And Lin mainly wanted to find a...worker to ask it about the research team.
The ticket office at the entrance is automatic. So far, I haven't seen any Ershi people working here, only tourists.
"Veronica, look at this, it seems very interesting!"
Bilu stopped in front of an exhibit... The name of the exhibit was 'Imagination of the Future in the Past'.
What it showed was an operating panel covered with densely packed buttons, and the instructions next to it were... the spaceship operating panel that the Ershi people had imagined before.
Because buttons were used instead of three-dimensional images at that time, the Ershi people of that era imagined that future spaceships would have a large number of buttons on them.
“I don’t know if there will be any reaction!”
Bilu said as she reached out and pressed a button...and nothing happened.
"No reaction? But it's fun!" Bilu pressed it several times...
"Received activation order, began evacuation procedures."
The sudden sound from the panel made Bilu look puzzled: "What's going on?"
"Positioning... Error, repositioning... Error... Repositioning... Target, tt006."
"It seems to have started moving on its own!"
Although Bilu withdrew her hand, the operation panel was still shaking.
It didn't have a display, but all the buttons were flashing, as if something weird was happening.
The other visitors also looked at this side with strange expressions, as if they were seeing such a situation for the first time.
“What did you just do!?”
Suddenly, an Ershimin ran over. This Ershimin was wearing an employee uniform and looked like a worker here.
It looked anxious and said to Bilu: "What did you do to it just now?"
"What's wrong? I just pressed it!" Bilu said, "There's no sign saying you can't press it casually!"
“Just a press? But how did it… start?”
Under the anxious expression of this Ershimin employee, the entire exhibition hall suddenly began to shake...
"What happened? Is it an earthquake? Run!" The tourists here immediately ran outside in panic, but... the moment they approached the entrance, it was closed with a bang.
"What's going on! Let us out!" Many tourists kept knocking on the entrance gate, but to no avail.
Because that door... is made of quite heavy metal, Lin felt that it could not be blown open without powerful explosives.
"No...it's already started!" the worker said, "It actually..."
"What exactly has been activated?" Bilu asked, "Will something interesting happen next?"
"The exhibition hall is actually a flying machine," the worker said. "You just triggered its...engine."
"Huh? There's actually such a thing!" Bilu said, "It feels like... like that thing I saw?"
"By the way, you are..." The staff member suddenly looked at Lin and Bilu carefully, then screamed and ran away.
"Wait! Why are you running?" Bilu's shouting failed to bring it back, and it quickly disappeared among the panicked tourists.
"Veronica, something exciting seems to have happened." Bilu turned to Lin and said, "I think it must be... these idiots were planning to close the hall and evacuate, but for some reason I initiated the evacuation in advance, right?"
"...It should be." Lin looked around. There were no windows in this place, but Lin could feel that this place was indeed moving.
It has already flown out of Ersh, and at a very fast speed...
Fly to a location in the nearby void.
