Chapter 60 Departure

"We must be careful..."

There are more than one hundred Ershi people, which is the total number of people in this camp.

They put on their equipment, picked up their weapons, and started moving towards their destination.

And Lin was also in their team.

The reason why they accepted Lin's Veronica so easily was mainly because Lin gave them some "hints".

That is to say, some very weak signals are sent out to influence their thinking and make them feel that Lin is safe.

This doesn't count as mind control or anything like that, but it can make them accept Lin and be willing to communicate many things with Lin.

At the same time, it can also allow them to go to the target destination with Lin...

More than one hundred Ershi people formed a large team and were slowly advancing on this rocky plain.

And Lin's Veronica stood in the center of them holding a lamp.

Lin's suggestion also had another effect, which was to make them 'unconsciously' think that Veronica was a very weak individual who needed protection...

The suggestion works well because Veronica's appearance fits this concept.

Lin noticed that most of the Ershi people in the team were paying attention to the sky.

Many creatures can often be seen flying around in the sky. These creatures look like mist. There are a lot of them, but none of them pay attention to this side.

On the contrary, Lin felt that some of the creatures on the ground were more dangerous.

More than a hundred meters to the right of the team, Lin saw several...puppet stars.

The creatures they are leading are the Ershi people.

The Ershi people being led by them seemed to have no thoughts at all, and could only move forward slowly and unsteadily.

Of course, the Ershi people here also noticed this group of puppet stars, but they did not attack them.

The two sides just walked past each other without any incident.

It seems... this is true for most creatures encountered on the road.

They encountered many creatures on the way, but they did not pay any attention to such a large group of Ershi people.

Of course, the Ershi people did not attack these creatures. They continued to move forward safely until... a place.

"Everyone stop!"

As soon as the leader Er Shimin finished speaking, the entire team stopped moving forward.

Now they came to a...dust plain.

The ground here is covered with a thick layer of dust, which can leave deep footprints when you step on it.

After arriving here, all the Ershi people became very nervous, as if they were worried about something suddenly appearing, although there seemed to be far fewer creatures here than on the previous rocky plains.

After watching for a while, they began to move slowly on the dust.

"careful!"

Suddenly, the Ershimin leader shouted loudly, and the moment he shouted, the ground not far in front of him suddenly exploded.

Countless dust flew into the sky, and at the same time a huge object appeared at the center of the explosion.

The object looks like a 'fish scale ball'.

Because its entire body is covered with round scales similar to those of a fish, and these scales form a sphere with a diameter of more than ten meters.

At this time, Lin discovered that all the scales of this "fish scale ball" were flashing with light, and each scale emitted a tiny beam of light, and these beams hit the dust floating in the sky.

The moment the dust was hit, it no longer scattered freely, but quickly gathered and arranged together as if it had received some command.

Finally, a large amount of dust gathered together to form some strange-shaped objects.

These dust objects are irregular in shape, and most of them look like stones covered with protrusions.

The fish scale ball assembled all the dust floating around into these things, and the Ershi people also raised their weapons at this time.

“Kill it!”

Along with the roar of guns, a large number of bullets flew towards the fish scale ball.

At the same time, the fish scale ball also scattered tiny beams of light from its entire body. Lin discovered that... after Er Shimin's bullets were hit by the beams, they began to behave like dust.

The bullets quickly gathered together, turned into large objects and fell to the ground.

However, some bullets hit the fish scale ball.

The collision of the bullets and the scales produced a dazzling flash of light, and a small hole appeared at each place that was hit after a flash.

A large amount of strange 'substance' gushed out from the small hole.

These 'substances' look a lot like jelly or something, maybe it's the...blood of this fish scale ball?

But because there were only a few bullets hitting the fish scale ball, the damage it suffered was not great.

The Ershi people here suffered considerable damage, as many of them were hit by the light beams.

The place where Ershimin's skin is hit by the light beam will twitch continuously, and finally this small piece of skin will peel off from the body. After falling to the ground, it will pile up with other peeled skin and become a... pile of flesh.

Lin thought this effect was quite interesting.

Of course, things like the clothes worn by the Ershi people will have similar effects, but more solid objects like guns will not have this effect.

"Kill it!"

Even though these Ershi people were injured, they did not stop firing. As they continued to shoot, the fish scale balls continued to emit light beams to intercept the bullets.

But the beams became fewer and fewer, and it seemed that the fish scale ball's 'ammunition' on the Birshen side could no longer hold out.

Soon it could hardly emit any beams of light, and was riddled with holes by countless barrages of bullets.

Then...it stopped moving completely.

"It's really dangerous." The Ershi people breathed a sigh of relief after looking at the fish scale ball full of holes.

Although there is no need to breathe here, Lin found that they all maintained this habitual breathing action.

Lin asked a few Ershi people nearby, and they told Lin that this fish scale ball was a creature that could steal the "light".

Generally, the Ershi people call it the 'light control ball'. This kind of ball is very good at emitting light beams to affect surrounding objects.

The beams fired by the more 'inexperienced' balls can only create some irregularly shaped, useless objects.

But more sophisticated balls can be made into useful things, like weapons.

It can even create living things.

This made Lin somewhat interested in the ball, so Lin carefully examined the body of the ball.

After testing, Lin felt that this ball... might be related to creatures such as the phoenix and the tornado.

It's not that they are of the same kind, but they are somewhat "related".

Because Lin detected some feeling similar to "condensation of nothingness" from the ball.

However, Lin did not have much time to test, because after Lin discovered that the ball died, its body quickly dissolved automatically.

At least from the outside it looks like it's dissolving.

When the Ershi people saw this phenomenon, they were extremely frightened and they all started to run wildly.
