The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2288: Spring
Shuttled through countless rays of light, Lin's aircraft was getting closer and closer to the target.
The brightest spot of light continued to expand in Lin's sight, and finally formed a...'spring eye'.
It looked like a hole with a diameter of about one thousand kilometers.
It was like a spring, but what gushed out was not water, but countless specks of light... They kept gushing out from it and spreading into the surrounding void.
There seemed to be no adverse effects in approaching it, so Lin let the aircraft approach slowly and look at the organ more closely.
At the same time, the 'Thinking Cannon' fired from the bombardment tower also arrived.
This translucent object flew at high speed towards the spring where light particles were gushing out. Lin found that as it got closer, a lot of light particles would stick to its "skin".
When the thought cannon was only a few kilometers away from the spring, its entire body was already covered with a large amount of light particles, turning it into a ball of...glittering substance.
But it was unable to move forward, and instead exploded the moment it approached the spring, and countless specks of light dissipated.
This seems to mean... it didn't actually hit the target?
And this spring that keeps gushing out light dust... is it the body of the 'light dust comet'? This is different from the information Lin knew... because what Lin knew was that comets would fly through the void at a very fast speed and would not stay in one place.
Because of all the doubts, Lin moved the aircraft closer.
Because they were too close, Lin's aircraft was also stuck with a lot of light particles. They were all harmless substances... at least they were harmless to the aircraft for now.
So Lin increased the speed of the aircraft and tried to rush in to see what was inside.
And when Lin did this...the bombardment tower also fired another 'thought cannon'.
Lin found this seemed to be an...interesting opportunity, so she split the aircraft into two.
Half of the craft continued to fly forward, while the other half collided with the thought cannon, entered the transparent mass of the thought cannon, and moved forward with it.
After entering the mind cannon, Lin discovered a strange feeling... There were some specially made brains installed on Lin's aircraft.
These brains can sense that a large number of thoughts are constantly entering their minds from all around them. If analyzed carefully, one can feel that these... thoughts are all various ideas of individual creatures.
The difficulty they have in making various difficult choices, the despair they feel from being controlled by the workspace, and the... various cruel things they have experienced can all be clearly felt.
This feels really interesting.
Of course, it's not just Lin's brain that can feel these thoughts, but also the light particles around... they are also the basic substances that make up the captain, and will also react due to contact with the thought cannon.
In fact, these light particles have the function of... analyzing and accepting the thoughts of various creatures.
To be precise, after the light fragments are integrated into the solidified organism, they will react according to the organism's own thinking, and begin to change slowly, and finally form... different captains.
And these shells mixed with intense thoughts seem to have a... gathering effect on these light particles.
They stick to the thought shells in large quantities, but it's not that the shells are actually sticky.
Instead, the moment those light fragments touch the shells, they will be "attracted" by the spring.
The spring that originally gushed out the light particles had an outward "repulsive force", causing all the light particles to fly out continuously. However, for those light particles that came into contact with the shells, this repulsive force would instantly turn into gravitational force and draw them back.
So it looks like the light particles are sticking to the shells, but actually... they are being sucked back.
This seems to be related to changes in the properties of these solidified substances themselves.
Anyway, if you want to understand why, you still have to go to the spring.
However, this thought cannonball was just like the previous one. After being hit by a large amount of light dust... these light dust caused an explosion.
The aircraft inside were not spared and were instantly blown to pieces.
But Lin's other half of the aircraft was already very close to the spring, and it felt like being in an extremely violent rainstorm.
Countless pieces of light kept hitting the surface of the aircraft, making it difficult to move forward. If it forced itself to accelerate, Lin felt that the entire aircraft would be broken apart.
So, Lin tried to use teleportation.
This is a small teleporter that Lin specially installed on the aircraft. It can "jump" forward a certain distance.
Although the jump distance was only a few dozen kilometers at most, it was enough for Lin to enter the spring.
'Pop'
In an instant, the scenery around Lin's aircraft...changed.
Compared to the outside where countless specks of light are constantly surging, it is quite... quiet here.
Here you can use your eyesight to observe the things around you...but all you can see is a vast space.
But there is something wrong here. To be more precise... there is no light here.
However, when Lin uses her "eyes" to observe the surroundings, her brain does not judge it as the common dull darkness, but...she sees a slightly gray scene.
Lin did not see the entrance to the spring. It looked vast... and empty.
But there were actually a lot of fragments of solidified matter floating around, so Lin randomly found a direction where the matter was relatively "concentrated" and flew over there.
After flying for a while, Lin discovered... a glowing object appeared in front of her.
It looks like a very small star, only a little over a meter across.
And under this miniature star, there is a...beach.
The scenery looks quite interesting. It is an object with a diameter of more than ten meters, half of which is water and the other half is golden sand.
It's like a small piece of the beach was cut off and placed here.
There was also a...chair on the sand.
There was a humanoid turtle lying on the chair, seemingly sleeping in the sun leisurely.
But Lin knew this Ershimin.
It is...No.
Lin slowly flew to the side of the island, and when Lin approached, it woke up.
"..." Nuo turned to look at Lin's aircraft, with a strange expression on his face: "What is this?"
Lin's aircraft now looks like a fish cut in half, but the head is still intact.
Then, Lin opened the fish's mouth, and a ball of fluff floated out of it and flew in front of Nuo.
"You..." Nuo looked at the fluff ball and said in surprise, "You came here too? Were you captured by it?"
"What do you mean by capture?"
Because there was air in this small area, Lin found that she could speak directly.
"Then it wasn't captured." Nuo said: "I was captured by this place."
