The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2004 Lost

"What on earth is this place? Why are there so many... pieces?"

"It's just a spaceship graveyard. What's so strange about that?"

"Isn't this strange? And that... look what that is!"

This is in the void.

It is also a rather special place.

There are a lot of debris floating everywhere in this void, some of them look like large metals, and some look like rocks.

The smallest one is only a few meters, and the largest one is hundreds of meters, like a small island.

A two-hundred-meter-long aircraft called the 'Type 11 Void Exploration Ship' was slowly advancing in this environment.

Their mission is to track down and find Midgard. Logically, it should be easy to find such a huge pipeline, but...

In fact, it is not that simple.

"No signal... Why would such a large object disappear?"

The character called the captain was looking at the huge screen in front of him in the main control room of the exploration ship with a difficult expression.

The screen showed the scenery outside, with pieces of debris passing by the ship and the light of the stars flickering between the gaps between the debris.

There was no trace of any target, which made them quite...troublesome.

Not long ago, the research team launched a fierce attack on Midgard, but before the attack, Midgard moved.

This seemed to be a kind of... automatic teleportation. The research team quickly captured its teleportation location and chased after it.

Then... they were teleported to this place, and after they were teleported, they lost the signal of the exact location of the pipeline.

They had no way of knowing where the target was, and all they could see were the debris floating everywhere.

In order to find Midgard, the research team dispatched many such exploration ships to search here, and this is one of them.

Because this exploration ship is a bit special, Lin and Bilu are also paying attention to it.

"Veronica-san...it looks like that pipe is hidden!"

Lin and Bilu are now looking at the situation here through two small machines moving around in the exploration ship. The shapes of these two machines are very similar to... the cubs of the Ershi people. Lin discovered them in the basement of the academy before. They can connect to this machine through dream energy.

Moreover, Lin also found a head-mounted controller, so she could control the actions of the two machines directly at the academy.

This machine seems to have been originally used for geese, because geese can also be connected, but the machine it controls is a small goose-shaped machine.

The members of the research team here did not have any special reaction to Lin and Bilu connecting here. Their attention was mainly on finding the pipeline.

"Now that we haven't captured any reaction from any giant object, Captain, could it be that it's not here?"

Now Lin could see that all the crew members around her had a look of confusion on their faces. They had just conducted several wide-area searches but had not found any objects that matched the size of the pipe.

"...I don't know. There's no news from above." The captain said, "We have to keep moving forward."

The captain's words prompted the exploration ship to continue flying deeper into the... debris pile.

Although there were various fragments around, nothing special happened... So Lin took advantage of the free time to ask the captain about the details of their previous attack on Midgard.

The captain said that this was a large and complex operation, and it was only doing a relatively small task... which was to send the geese out to locate them.

The main role of the goose in the previous attack was to allow it to locate dreams.

It mainly uses dream energy to locate some spatial coordinates around Midgard. The captain also said that he is not very clear about the details.

But it knew that it would not be easy for the Ershi people to complete this task. The reason seemed to be that Midgard had already recorded the relationship of the Ershi people as a species, while the geese had not been recorded. They were newly emerged intelligent creatures, so they could complete this task on their own.

This is the general situation...but how to locate it, what to do after locating it, and why the creature that just appeared can be used...the captains don't know.

It stated that only a few members of the research team fully understood how the special weapons used to attack the pipeline worked.

As for most members, they just carry out tasks according to orders. They only need to know where they are going and what they are doing.

Because of this...it is not possible to know the details of the previous attack at this time.

But if we don’t find the pipeline now, the previous attacks may be meaningless...

"Captain! Look, what is that!"

Suddenly, the exploration ship slowed down because a relatively large island appeared among a pile of debris ahead.

It is more than a kilometer in size and...

It doesn't look normal because the island is covered with green plants and there are many low buildings on it... It looks like a floating island.

However, only one side is like this; the other side is made of rock.

"What's going on?" the captain asked, "Is there a living creature up there?"

When the captain said this, the exploration ship was getting closer and closer to the island, and indeed could see that there were many plants growing on the surface of the island... Most of the plant species that could be seen on Ersh were small plants.

The buildings above also look like the buildings of the Ershi people, and they appear to be made of bricks and stones.

"This is very strange, Captain..." an operator said, "Should we send out an exploration team to take a look?

"No, it's strange, but we can't waste time here, let's go around it and move on."

After saying that, the exploration ship headed to the other side, but when passing the island... Lin said to the captain.

"Let's go and have a look."

"Yes! Let's go and take a look!" the machine controlled by Bilu also said.

"You guys...alright."

The captain had no objection to this and directly asked Lin and Bilu to leave the ship...

Using the propulsion device built into the machine, Lin and Bilu landed on the island.

"Veronica, there seems to be air here!"

When approaching within a hundred meters of the island, you can feel... the island is wrapped in a layer of air.

But this air is not the common mixed gas on Ersh, but a kind of...

It is a highly toxic gas to the Ershi people.

However, it seems to be of no harm to these plants.

Because they are not real, but fake plants made of materials like 'plastic'.

Both the appearance and the details are well done. From a distance it looks almost the same as the real thing, but if you get close, you can see the difference immediately.

Why is there such a strange place here?

With this thought in mind... Lin walked into the nearest building.
