Chapter 317 The Distant World

The gray grains of sand and stones spread all the way to the end of the field of vision, the air is filled with gray dust, the earth does not seem to have any moisture, and everything seems to be in thirst...

In addition to the rocks, there are also some strange objects piled up here - fragments of alloys.

They look like fragments that have been peeled off from some large objects. It is impossible to see what they were originally. Their shapes are extremely distorted, and some are covered with cracks that have been scratched by gravel. These fragments seem to be here. After sleeping for a long time, combined with the surrounding black gravel environment, this place looks even more barren, without any life.

But that's just the look of the place.

Among the broken stones and alloys, some small creatures were wandering.

They looked... like skeletons, with a cracked alloy column serving as the 'spine', and beneath the spine were five to seven misaligned calves.

They are also composed of alloys. Although they look full of scars, there is no liquid or other things flowing out of them, and this kind of creature, which is about one meter long, moves quite quickly.

They ran at high speed among the alloy ruins, turning over the surrounding debris piles, as if searching for something.

Therefore, these creatures have the name "scavengers".

Some scavengers unearthed what they were looking for - stones buried under the debris.

But they're not actually rocks, and they move slowly when found, but so slowly that it can almost be considered motionless.

Scavengers turn the stone over. And use a limb with a sharper end - that looks more like a broken metal rod. Forcefully pierced into the 'belly' of the stone.

'Snapped! ' at the moment of being pierced. A large amount of liquid was splashed out of the stone, and the scavenger immediately aimed its front section at the pierced place, seemingly swallowing the liquid inside the stone.

When it was eating, many other scavengers had gathered around. They were all rummaging for stones, but now they didn't do it, but gathered to get a piece of the pie...

The scavengers don't seem to snatch directly, but the original scavenger eats them. The moment the stone was put down, all the scavengers rushed up and began to frantically compete for the stone on the ground.

And as the stone is the scavenger's prey,

Scavengers are also prey to other creatures.

A black figure appeared in the drifting sand, staring at the scavengers at a distance of dozens of meters.

However, it doesn't have eyes, it looks more like a gray sticky thing, with a lot of alloy fragments stuck to its whole body, almost completely obscuring its original appearance.

The creature is three meters high. Five meters long, it moved slowly on the ground. And sprayed a lot of dust from a hole in the head.

These dusts are scattered around its body with the airflow, as if to conceal it, and the dust will not stick to its body, which makes it perfect to use this camouflage to stay in the atmosphere that is already full of sand and dust. middle.

Hence, it has such a name... 'Mud Dust'.

The dirt and dust approached the scavengers, who, unaware of the dangerous approach, continued to rummage and scramble for stones.

When the distance was only more than ten meters, the slowly moving body of the mud dust suddenly stopped, and it began to tighten its body forcefully, pressing its body to only half its original size.

The moment it was released, it bounced out like a flying warhead. Only then did the scavengers notice that a monster was flying towards them. They fled in all directions, but one did not escape. , it was pressed under the body by the dust...

The scavenger struggled constantly, but its body was slowly melted into the body by the mud and dust. After it was completely swallowed, it was still trembling slightly. stop.

After a while, the mud dust spit out the scavenger. It didn't seem to have changed at all, but it wouldn't move any more...

'call--'

At this time, a strong wind began to blow in the air, and the mud dust quickly moved away from the place when he noticed the strange weather.

But when it moved a distance of a few meters, several cracks suddenly appeared on the ground, and two gray objects full of serrated teeth, shaped like leaves rushed out of the cracks, instantly mixing dust and mud inside.

This time, it was its turn to struggle, but just like the previous scavengers couldn't break free, this dust and mud couldn't escape...

The two gray 'leaves' squeezed more and more tightly, and the body of the dust mud was also squeezed smaller and smaller inside, and finally the leaves loosened until only about one-tenth of the original...

A large pile of metal debris spilled from the loose leaves, and the figure of the dust and mud was long gone.

'Phew—' At this moment, there was another sound from the sky, and the two leaves that devoured the dust and mud instantly burrowed into the ground, completely hiding themselves.

...The life of this place seems quite interesting.

A huge black shadow appeared in the sand and dust floating in the sky. Its size was enough to cover the entire earth. Its movement could easily cause a hurricane, and its contact with the ground could cause a strong earthquake.

Its entire body was covered with thick armor like snow and ice, and tower-like tentacles protruded from its shell, piercing the gray earth.

This creature came from the void, and it has the name of the iceberg in the void. The purpose of coming here seems to be to replenish nutrients.

But it was not the only one who came. When this huge creature touched the ground, countless debris fell from its body.

Some debris is just pure void debris, while others are a creature called 'Lin'.

Lin felt as if she had discovered something very interesting now.

That's the place, a particular tumbler, a zone of dust and alloy shards.

The Void Iceberg travels in the endless void, and it occasionally approaches some tumblers. These tumblers are named by Lin with the method of 'numbering', such as Iceberg Type I, Iceberg Type II...

And this tumbler is... Iceberg 371.

This place was the second place where creatures were found among the tumblers approached by the Void Iceberg.

The life form here seems strange, a whole new life form, but the most wonderful thing is...

The environment of this tumbler is exactly the same as the scene in the dream that the spiral creature is showing Lin... (To be continued...)
