Chapter 189: The Forgotten
A large part of ancient history has been forgotten, and those that remain are full of mistakes.
However, the things in history do not necessarily disappear, they may be hidden somewhere, waiting to be ...... Until some people, or some creature, discovers it.
"What do these words really mean......
On the cue ball of the Void People, the General is dealing with many things, especially the recent construction of the space station.
But even if it's busy, it will have some free time to do something else.
In addition to the current war on alien creatures, the General has one more thing that makes it very concerned, and that is when the enemy block approached its command post and showed up to communicate with them.
During that exchange, the stereoscopic image of the other party and the general said something strange, mentioning the creatures printed on the virtual coins.
On the back of the coin, there is always a creature printed on it, and they are called creatures that once helped the imaginary people.
However, the Void People now regard them more as legends than as real creatures, and the Void Folk generally believe that they are creatures that come from legends and beliefs.
But now in this world, the Void People have no faith, why does this creature keep being printed on new virtual coins?
The general is not very clear about the printing of money, it does not manage those things.
However, it was now curious about the creature, so it researched a lot of information...... Most of the information is speculation and discussion about the creature being real, but in some sources, the general has found strange descriptions.
Something about this creature......
………… Meanwhile. On the other side.
Lin is still exploring the secrets in the depths of the ice world......
The disc is now in a warm place. The temperature here. The temperature has been reached to allow the ice to dissolve.
The walls, floors, and roof of the cave are all made of rock, which protects the temperature well, but this temperature comes mainly from an object in front of the disk...... A mushroom-shaped thing, thirty centimeters in diameter, with holes in its surface, was constantly exuding a warm scent.
This was the first sight Lynn saw after coming down from the cave above. A vast, labyrinthine stone cave.
At the entrance to the cave there is a mushroom that exudes warmth.
However, it was clearly not a mushroom, but some kind of machine, and if you hit it with your tentacles, it would respond to the sound of metal......
Flying into the cavern, you can see the flat rock walls and ground around you, and at regular intervals something like a sphere is radiating light......
They are responsible for illuminating the entire cavern, and the life of the creatures here seems simple.
Slowly flying towards the cave, Lin suddenly noticed a passage next to her, and inside the passage was a room.
I see. Is this where those creatures live?
Lynn saw a lot of things in the room, and it looked ...... It's very similar to the room of the Void People. There are cabinets, chests, and even things like beds, which seem to be all made of stone...... There is no other material, and in the center of the room, there is a spherical lamp that illuminates the whole place, and a device that releases heating on the floor.
The rooms here are well-equipped, but none of the 'furniture' is as big as the Void People's, and it looks small...... But it is also a matter of course, this creature is already smaller than the Void Min......
And this creature is also in this place.
A creature was lying on the bed, and the disc flew into the room, and the creature was sleeping without noticing, and Lynn noticed that the creature was the size, and it felt like ...... Moss? By the way, I've seen it in the prison of black metal.
This creature ...... It should have a lot to do with the virtual people.
However, the creature's form, while similar, is not identical.
Whether it's a virtual citizen or a black metal prison, this creature is hairless, but the creature in front of the disc is covered with hair.
It was wearing what looked like armor, but now it had been taken off and put aside, revealing its original body.
Looking, the disc released a miniature unit that landed on it and began to detect the creature, and the disc flew out of the room to look elsewhere......
This place...... I feel that the structure is quite simple.
The disc flew swiftly through the cavern, and on the way Lynn saw several more rooms, which were similar to the previous ones, but there were no creatures in them.
Maybe they don't all have to be here.
At the same time, Lynn's miniature unit was also probing the body of the creature just now, and this one was indeed a multicellular creature.
Moreover, the structure of the body is very similar to that of common multi-cell, internal organs, skeletons, and brains, and if you look at the brain, it belongs to a relatively intelligent creature.
But why do they live here?
In addition, they are covered with long white hair, which feels like an evolutionary result of adapting to the environment here......
This is because even if there is heating, it is still maintained at a very low temperature, and it is difficult for multicellular organisms to live here without the ability to keep warm.
But judging by their intelligence, they are supposed to make some warmth, but they are also covered in hair, so it doesn't matter if you don't wear any warmth here.
Of course, you have to wear it if you go outside, which is why Lynn had seen so much warm armor in the previous cave
The disc flew in this ice cave for a while, and Lin found that the place was quite large, and in general it should be a relatively complex tunnel with various rooms.
There are also places like storage rooms.
The disc had now found a pantry with some food in it, all of which could be eaten by multicellular organisms, but only one.
It's a fungus......
The fungus seems to be able to live in this environment, which may be their only food, and maybe some other storage room? There were tons of food in the pantry, and Lynn found them all identical.
And, where are these fungi grown? Lynn wanted to see how they grew.
But the most important thing is whether they have a historical record or something. If you find them, you may be able to see why they live here, and you may even know their relationship with the imaginary people.
But at the moment, the room that Lynn saw was nothing but a storage room and a whole bunch of rooms......
So still......
'Boom! As Lynn was thinking, she suddenly felt the disc hit by something. (To be continued......)
