Chapter 72 Progress of Restoration

"Thank you... It seems that we are no longer safe here. Those monsters... have all come in."

Lin is in the city of potholes.

Not long ago, Lin almost eliminated all the dangers here, namely the monsters.

There were dozens of monsters invading the city, which wasn't actually a lot.

These monsters are relatively easy for Lin to deal with. They don’t have any special abilities, but they are very defensive and are not easily injured by the weapons of the Ershi people.

After defeating the monster, Lin told the leader that they needed to collect materials to repair the damage to Dream Ersh.

They agree with this...very much.

Because they really want to restore this place, and if it is not completely restored, they will of course work hard to restore it.

So, the first step was quickly taken.

Lin first asked them to transport some materials to the nearest repair point.

Lin decided to repair this location first and then repair other places.

At the same time, Lin also has to do another thing, which is to strengthen the Ershi people here.

It is currently very difficult for the Ershi people here to kill monsters...Lin thinks it is mainly because their imagination is not "detailed" enough.

The power of something made from imaginary materials has nothing to do with its appearance.

It is mainly related to their imagination.

Simply put, the more detailed the details are, the more powerful it is.

But these Ershi people...Lin discovered that they themselves did not understand the detailed structure of weapons such as firearms.

As long as they are taught the details of the structure, they should be able to create weapons that are much more powerful than the ones they have now.

So, Lin prepared to start teaching them.

So-called teaching actually means inputting some data on the internal details of the weapons into their minds.

Thinking about this, Lin also told the leader about this matter.

"Is this true?" The leader was surprised. "Understanding weapons... can really increase their power?"

"Yes." Lin said.

"...In that case, let's give it a try."

After that, the leader called a group of Ershi people and said that these Ershi people were elite troops responsible for dealing with monsters.

It is best to let them do the testing.

So, Lin did as she wanted and directly input into them a large amount of information about the detailed structure of various weapons.

The next step is to let these people assemble weapons using their own imaginary materials.

………………

"Bang!" A bullet flew out and instantly hit a thick fog in the jungle.

The thick fog shook a few more times and then dissipated completely.

"This power... is so different?"

The Ershimin who shot was behind a tree more than a hundred meters away. He looked at the thick fog dissipating in the distance in surprise... and then looked at the gun in his hand.

"We...we can take back the surface!" Its excited voice then resounded throughout the jungle.

At this time, many Ershi people also appeared in the surrounding jungles and gathered together.

They excitedly discussed the weapons in their hands, the armor on their bodies, etc. Although these things looked exactly the same as before, their power was completely different.

From being very difficult to penetrate monsters to being able to kill them instantly...the main difference that caused all this was the data that Lin input into them.

“It seems to be working very well.”

The leader of the Ershi people also appeared next to the group of Ershi people, and Lin's Veronica followed behind him.

"Don't forget our mission... We must completely repair this world and let Ersh return to being... Ersh!"

"Yes! We know!"

This time we are just coming out to conduct some tests, and Lin feels that the power of these weapons is sufficient.

Next, it’s time to repair it.

Not long after, Lin and the group of Ershi people wearing new equipment came to the place where there were many termite hills last time.

At the same time, they also transported a large amount of materials.

They have quite a lot of reserves of these imaginative materials here, and Lin asked them to transport almost ten tons of them over.

These materials are then piled up next to the damaged area.

Next, it was Lin’s turn to repair the data.

The main thing is to figure out what was originally here, then make careful settings and input the data into the damaged point.

This process is not that easy...it is not difficult to imagine the data.

While Lin is repairing it, the materials will 'automatically' merge with the ground, causing the strange termite mounds to slowly disappear, while restoring their original appearance.

There may be monsters coming during this process, but there are Ershi people with new equipment around, so there should be no danger from monsters.

However, Lin felt that there might be other dangers that she should be concerned about.

"Should we really do it? But it... let's repair it first."

While Lin was carrying out repairs in the center of a large termite mound, Lin could 'hear' some words.

This is actually the Ershi people speaking, but they are not using normal "voices", but the language of monsters.

Their original way of communication is similar to that of ordinary Ershi people. It can be said that as long as you understand the thinking of the Ershi people, you will know what these people are saying.

However, they now use another way to communicate.

This is some kind of monster's 'language', they use something to communicate in secret.

Under normal circumstances, Lin would not be able to sense their communication, but now Lin could sense their communication.

This is mainly because of the relationship that Lin is repairing.

When Lin entered the repair state, she was actually connected to the entire dream.

Therefore, Lin can also connect to the database of Dream Ersh, through which she can obtain some thinking information of the "monster".

From this we can know that these Ershi people are communicating using the monster's signal transmission method.

They themselves are unable to understand the monsters' signals, so they use something to translate the monsters' signals into signals that their own minds can understand.

However, this method is very secretive. After translation, it will not be spread out and only they themselves can perceive it.

As for what was spreading outside, it was only the signal of the monster.

They thought that Lin was unaware of their communication, so they were now discussing openly whether to kill Lin.

But even if Lin couldn't sense it now, she knew they were going to do this.

The main reason for the killing was that they considered Lin a big threat.

It means that it may threaten their lives.

Because most of the Ershi people here don't trust Lin, in fact the leader doesn't really believe her either.

It's just that it felt those memories of Ersh in the underground cave and had to believe it.

But it doesn't recognize Lin either.

It didn't know where Lin came from or why Lin could repair this place.

The other Ershi people were very suspicious of Lin. In fact, they didn't quite believe that Lin had any connection with Ershi. Instead, they thought that Lin might be related to a monster.

Although the leader had told them something, they didn't really believe Lin.

After Lin taught them how to create powerful weapons, they felt that Lin might be quite dangerous.

When transmitting weapon data to them, many thoughts about Lin could be detected from their brains.

Except for the leader, it can be said that all the Ershi people do not trust Lin.

When they saw Lin entering the repair state, they wanted to attack.

Lin thinks this is quite normal. After all, it is abnormal for them to believe in Lin.

Although Lin can give them hints or something, she has not done so yet.

At this time, Lin had almost finished the repair.

The termite mounds on the ground have now disappeared and replaced by some trees similar to the surrounding ones.

These trees are the weapons set up by Ersh in this dream. Although they look the same as the surrounding environment, their function is to kill small dream creatures.

"This has been repaired." At this time, Lin's Veronica said to the leader who was watching on the side: "Go to the next place."

"Okay, let's go to the next place!" After the leader shouted, the Ershi people around him stopped whispering to themselves... and started moving.

Just like last time, they transported a large amount of materials to another damaged site, where Lin continued to repair it.

This time the process was not as smooth as last time. This time... a lot of monsters appeared when we came here.

But now, you don’t even need to recognize the monsters, you can kill them directly from a long distance.

Therefore, they also protected Lin very well... and carried out a second repair.

Then there are other locations.

Once, twice, three times... Under their protection, Lin repaired many small places.

Lin also discovered that this group of Ershi people had been constantly making various speculations about her along the way.

At first, I speculated that Lin might be a monster or something, and later I speculated that Lin might also be a creature from the normal void.

In short, it is indeed related to Ersh to some extent.

Although they cannot directly feel the repair status of a place, after a place is repaired, they will have a... very comfortable feeling.

In other words, I can feel that this place seems normal and much more pleasing to the eye.

So their attitude towards Lin has improved a little.

But they still doubted Lin's purpose and what she wanted to do... In short, they didn't think Lin was a friendly creature.

Lin didn't pay much attention to them and continued to carry out repairs here.

Every time a damaged location was repaired, Lin could feel that the dream world was becoming more complete.

Repairing a place does not just make the damaged location become normal, but also many devices located in other places will be started together when it is repaired.

After repairing almost ten damaged points, Lin could completely confirm that this dream was indeed created by Ersh... Ersh himself.

It has designed various detection devices, weapons and other things used here.

And have planned how to move forward here, and even understand what creatures will appear here.

Maybe Ersh started to know this place a long time ago.

However, this design may be like many other designs and will eventually be abandoned by the Ershi people.

Or in other words, after the design is completed, no one cares about it anymore.

However, a design was still created despite the complete data, and then a lot of troubles occurred, which is what Lin is seeing now.

Lin felt that if everything was completely repaired, this place should be able to be restarted and used for traveling to unforeseen places.

"careful!"

Suddenly, Lin's Veronica jumped to the side, and a hole appeared on the ground where Veronica was originally.

But this was not done by Ershimin, or not entirely.

The main reason is a monster in the distance.

This monster looked like a large cloud with a diameter of more than 20 meters.

It remained stable under the massive firepower and slowly drifted towards this side.

Many of the bullets that hit it were reflected and hit the ground or Ershimin's body.

Just now, one of them almost hit Lin.

"No, we must recognize it!"

At this time, an Ershimin threw out a "cognitive bomb".

It was something like a grenade. When it was thrown at the cloud and exploded, Lin could see that the entire cloud had turned into a... very special-looking creature.

It looks like a creature covered with blood-red scales but with no other organs.

It looks like the 'fish scale ball' that Lin encountered before, although it is larger and the color is different.

"What's this?"

All the Ershi people were a little...surprised after seeing it.

Because after they have recognized the monsters before, they will become creatures they know, whether they are in the movies or real creatures.

This doesn't seem to belong to any movie.

Just as they were surprised, Lin discovered that the blood-red ball of scales began to rotate.

Those blood-colored scales also flew out like raindrops. They could easily cut through the armor of the Ershi people. In an instant, several Ershi people fell down with blood all over their bodies.

"Boom!" At the same time, the blood scale ball also exploded violently because some other Ersh civilian explosive weapons hit the blood scale ball.

And there was an Ershi people... the leader. Lin saw it jump directly from the ground.

It jumped onto the blood scale ball floating more than ten meters in the air, then took out the long knife from its waist and stabbed it fiercely into the gaps between the scales.

A moment later, the entire blood scale ball seemed to lose its strength and fell heavily to the ground.

The leader also jumped off the blood scale ball and said to Lin: "Did you know they would appear?"

Lin replied: “…I don’t know.”

"Really... Then let's keep going!"

After saying this, it continued to move with the group of Ershi people.

It seemed to think that Lin should know why monsters like the Blood Scale Ball appeared.

Lin was very curious why it thought Lin knew.

But Lin also felt that... the appearance of this monster might be related to repair.

Similar situations occurred on the rest of the journey...many creatures appeared that seemed strange even after recognizing them.

However, none of them were as strong as the blood scale balls, so they were dealt with quite smoothly.

This time Lin is going to repair a larger location.

This is also a pit...more than 100 meters in diameter and 30 meters deep.

From the outside, it looks like a small hole, and the area it occupies is not as large as some of the previous damaged spots.

But in fact, there is much more corrupted data here than anywhere else.

Therefore, these Ershi people are also needed to continue transporting large amounts of materials here.

In fact, these Ershi people were already reluctant, after all, some of them had died in previous attacks.

However, they still did not show it, and continued to transport the materials obediently.

When the materials were piled up next to the pit, Lin also walked into the depths of the pit... and began to inspect the damage inside.

It is difficult to say exactly what the damage is in this area.

If Lin just put some random data in, it might cause greater damage.

Many of the previous damage points were small weapon devices.

These are plant-like in shape, and will use their roots to attack targets if monsters approach them.

Because there are many similar weapons on the surface that are still functioning normally... so Lin can also infer the general structure of the damaged weapons.

The people of Ershi here don’t know that there are these weapons and equipment on Ershi.

Because in fact, these weapons will not be activated yet...even if the location has been repaired, they will not be activated.

In addition to weapons, many things on the surface that look like trees also have special functions.

But most of them don't move.

Something needs to be fixed to make them move.

Speculating from this direction, Lin felt that... there might be some key things in these pits, such as weapon controllers or something.

Or it could be an energy depot.

In that case, let's experiment.

Thinking about this, Lin began to conduct some data design tests.

Just as Lin was about to start, she suddenly discovered something unusual in the sky.

Some large objects fell from the sky like meteorites.

However, they did not burn like meteorites, but emitted a lot of mist while flying.

The mist spread and soon covered the entire sky.

Although there are no stars in this place, the sky is always bright.

But after being covered by fog, the place became dim.

"Something is coming..."

The Ershi people around became very nervous, and Lin also stopped repairing and looked at the sky.

But Lin found that after Lin stopped, the fog in the sky dissipated and everything around her became bright again.

This seems to be... indeed related.

Because when Lin tried to repair it again, the thick fog in the sky spread again.

It seems that Lin's repairs will attract something.

Lin didn't stop this time, so the fog became thicker and thicker, making the place darker and darker.

Finally, Lin saw a huge object emerging from the thick fog.

It was hard to tell what this thing was, but Lin could feel that it was "talking".

In fact, its words were the same monster language that the group of Ershi people had secretly used before.

However, this creature did not speak quietly, but broadcast it to the entire land. Lin and all the Ershi people could hear it clearly.

"This place...must be completely destroyed."

This is roughly what it says.
