Chapter 34 Gathering

"It's...dead."

“But it didn’t restart.”

They were very surprised by the situation before them.

Because this giant Ershi man, who was one of the split consciousnesses, died... but the circumstances of his death were somewhat different from before.

Before, as long as there was a consciousness that survived, it would cause a restart somewhere in this space.

But now, the reboot is not happening.

This split consciousness must be dead, because the two Ershi people had dismantled it in front of Veronica.

Although they had always wanted to hide something from Lin before, they don't seem to care so much now.

Lin watched the disassembly process and found that this Ershimin... was indeed a machine.

Its interior is entirely mechanical, and the two civilians have no intention of hiding this from Lin.

At the same time, Lin felt that they dismantled them directly because they were afraid that Lin would take these materials for testing, so they just... disposed of them themselves.

Lin watched them throw the disassembled parts into a grass house. The house suddenly moved, as if it wanted to completely...swallow these remaining parts.

Lin asked the other two Ershi people: "So what should we do now?"

"We need to investigate the reason." An Ershimin said, "These creatures are very special."

"They haven't invaded in such large numbers before." Another Ershi citizen said, "The number of those who have left is very small... Normally, even if they can find this place, there won't be so many coming in."

"There must be something... that helped them." After saying that, they looked at Lin together.

"Do you think I helped them?" Lin asked.

"No, but you might be the reason." An Ershimin said, "You activated the fortress directly and came back, which might have provided them with...some guidance."

"We need to continue some detailed investigations. Can you come with us?"

"...Okay." Lin said.

After saying that, Lin and a giant Ershi people entered its head-shaped aircraft.

"Hey! Where are you going? You can't just leave me here. You can't leave, or I'll bite you to death!"

Although the Brain-Maker kept shouting,... it was ignored.

After Lin and the giant Ershi people entered the head aircraft, Lin found the interior of the aircraft quite interesting.

Although the head is now lying on the ground, the hall inside is still... upright.

This Ershimin walked to the center of the hall, and the whole hall began to shake.

Lin found that there were two openings on the wall in front of her, which felt like windows through which she could see what was happening outside.

Then, the head slowly flew up into the sky... and then it quickly flew in one direction.

That is where Lin came from, in the direction of the fortress.

The head was very fast and soon reached the fortress.

But it doesn't seem to be suitable for landing.

Because at the entrance of the fortress below and on the surrounding grass, you can see a large number of densely packed boneless dolls.

Moreover, these dolls seem to be performing some strange "ritual". You can see that they are shaking their bodies constantly.

These boneless dolls swayed together in a very regular pattern, making them look like layers of waves in the sky.

"Are they...?"

The giant Ershiman looked down and said, "They are...they are ahh ...

Suddenly, the giant Ershi creature screamed and pounced on Lin.

Lin jumped up immediately, and at the moment she stepped on its hand, she also pierced its skin all over with a lot of hair.

These hairs quickly penetrated into the joints of its body, restricting its movements...Lin began to examine its brain.

This huge Ershimin’s brain...Lin discovered that there was a very...consciousness inside.

When Lin was testing it, these consciousnesses seemed to be vying to "roar" and want to kill Lin's Veronica.

To be precise, they want to control this body.

However, because some of the joints were pierced by Lin, no matter how they struggled... they could not control their bodies.

After Lin carefully examined it, she found these consciousnesses quite interesting.

They were just like what Lin had known before... they felt like they were from Ersh's 'future'.

These consciousnesses all come from a group of Ershi people.

This group of Ershi people have memories of riding Ershi to the "safe zone".

In their memories, Ersh took them to a very safe place in the void... Of course, they themselves couldn't tell whether it was safe or not, it was mainly Ersh who told them.

At that time, Ersh left the travel space and returned to the void.

Then, Ershi came to a tumbler in the void, whose environment was very suitable for the Ershi people.

That tumbler was originally like this place, mostly this prairie environment.

Ershi placed the Ershi people and most of the species on Ershi on this tumbler and let them develop on it on their own.

At that time, due to many crises encountered in the void, their city was almost destroyed.

So when they moved to a new place, the Ershi people basically started rebuilding their city from scratch.

Ersh left them and no one knew where he went.

Later, as Lin learned, these Ershi people were initially very united in construction, and there were no criminals at all during the construction period.

But after the construction was completed, various problems gradually emerged.

There was a group of Ershi people who missed the time when they were united so much that they formed a special organization.

The leader of this organization is this huge Ershi people.

To be precise, it is an intelligent machine.

This machine was found in the 'Ruins'.

Because at that time, in addition to placing them on the new tumbler, Ersh also placed many interesting things it made on that world, and buried them underground or placed them in some special places for them to explore and discover.

This huge intelligent machine in the shape of the Ershi people was found by them in an "exploration relic" designed by Ershi.

After being accidentally activated, they discovered that every move and every word of this giant Ershi people was full of wisdom.

Finally, after going through some things, they decided to make this giant Ershi people their leader.

Then the organization continued to accept more members.

But rather than being an organization, they are more like an 'exclamation meeting'.

That is to say, they recruited some older Ershi people, and then lamented how united they were in the past.

And all of their sighs were collected by the huge Ershi people.
