Durin's Diary

Chapter 360: A Thousand Years of Sea Travel
The first person Durin thought of was Lina. The girl sensed Durin's shaking technique and immediately came over with her portal sword and hammer.

"Ah, where is this? Why are these buildings from the old era? What kind of animal is that?" As soon as she came here, she was filled with curiosity.

When Du Lin explained the situation to it, the little dragon nodded in understanding: "Monster, easy to deal with. We'll turn it into a feast tonight."

"Don't show off your monster. What if you eat it and it turns out to have two tails?" Du Lin said unhappily. "If someone didn't know, they'd think I was mistreating you."

"Nonsense! We've been eating this for centuries. It tastes like chicken and is really crunchy." The little dragonet kissed Durin on the cheek. "How could you mistreat me? Whoever said that? I'll beat him to death."

·Eleven, do you have a satellite cannon? Kill him, okay? Kill both of them.

I'd love to, but the network connection is down.

The two AIs were talking sarcastically on the side.

Dulin treated the giant snow leopard – first photographing the wound, then treating it.

After the treatment was completed, Du Lin asked what the monster looked like.

The old mother described the monster in great detail.

First, it has three pairs of hard limbs, two in front and one in the back.

Secondly, it can stand like a human, and when moving, it can run like an animal.

It has a black exoskeleton on its body and looks frail, but it possesses immense strength. The snow leopard's claws have no way of hurting it.

By the way, this monster also has a long tail with bones.

We seem to have seen this thing in Lublin.

It does look alike, let me ask again.

Du Lin continued to ask: "What does its head look like?"

It has a long, transparent head, through which you can see its long brain. It is very hard and cannot be bitten through by teeth. It is also immune to psychological control.

The old leopard's answer made Du Lin feel a little numb - alien?
It looks a bit like an alien, but it's definitely not one, otherwise this old female leopard wouldn't be alive today. And didn't you notice that even though there's still a ray of sunlight, it hasn't invaded the hotel. It's likely that it's naturally photophobic.

Ceris 11 analyzed.

The wound on the old leopard's back showed corrosive wounds. Its claws were very sharp and should have strong acid-secreting glands, but there were no bite marks, perhaps because it escaped the attack.

There were no outsiders anyway, and Daju and Ceris Eleven were also sharing the same medical ball, so they simply drilled out of Durin's body.

Lina was very curious about this: "What is this."

"Seris XI is the clone of the old-era AI found in Lublin. I brought it here and started the hotel." Du Lin introduced.

"Hey, big leopard, let me ask you, what does the monster's mouth look like?"

Is the core master!
When the old leopard saw that the creature from the old era could actually actively communicate with her, she immediately began to introduce the monster in detail.

Just as Eleven and Daju said, the monster did not have tongue-shaped internal teeth, nor did it have the structure of a facehugger. Eleven and Daju also worked together to analyze the air and found that there were no "strange" cells or floc-like particle clusters similar to spores.

The most important thing is that this monster has only recently appeared in this area. There was originally a bear-like monster nearby, but it was also driven away by this monster.

The old leopard didn't want to leave its home, but now it had nowhere else to go.

However, it also said that the monster would always appear late at night.

Du Lin asked Shiyi and Daju to lead the way and started the hotel's electrical system first - although Du Lin did not have an electrical engineer certificate or a low-voltage and high-voltage operation certificate, he had Shiyi.

With a finger pointing at the line and a snap of the blueprint, Du Lin remotely completed the renovation of the entire electrical room and even followed the wiring into the power generation room below.

"Room-temperature superconducting small nuclear power reactor, this thing really won't blow us up?" Du Lin was a little scared.

"The Geiger meter hasn't even gone off yet, what are you afraid of? This is Tainan's advanced technology, and the whole pile is self-maintained." Eleven said this with great pride, and signaled Du Lin to close the switch.

Uneasy, Du Lin explored the system again, finally forcing himself to restart it. He watched as the small reactor completed its fully automated startup. The monitoring system on board even looked at Du Lin, "Zhu Longzi, how come I didn't know my engineer was replaced?"

"This is Ceris Eleven. In the name of your superior, I order you to stop asking questions and do your work well!" After Eleven gave the order, the secondary AI stopped squeaking.

Du Lin went upstairs. Lina had already collected a lot of damaged automatic machines.

Under Eleven's guidance, Du Lin began to repair the automatic machinery.

Kal'tsit lay lazily on the counter, with three little snow leopards jumping around on her body.

The old female leopard looked at the hotel gate from time to time, and she was still a little worried.

The first automatic machine on Dulin's side was repaired and started up. Dulin also equipped it with a flail and a shield, and Eleven also returned the compilation system to this machine.

It felt a little confused as it watched these things that had long been useless restart.

Can you fix my master?

Your master?

By this time, Du Lin had already repaired the second machine. He asked Eleven to stay and start copying the system. He and the old female leopard went to the sixth floor.

In an open door, Du Lin saw a...prosthetic body sitting by the bed.

His artificial skin had completely aged, revealing the dry artificial muscles underneath. The long-term lack of maintenance made it look like a mummy.

Du Lin looked at the old female leopard: "Do you think it is still alive?"

The old female leopard shook her head very humanely.

But the master said that he was not an ordinary man... I was not an ordinary leopard either. The mother of those children was also the cubs I brought back from other dead companions. The monster killed her.

Du Lin examined the prosthesis in detail and finally gently lifted its scalp. Under the dry scalp, Du Lin saw a transparent electronic brain wall cabin, in which the electronic brain had completely shriveled.

Daju and Shiyi were called up by Du Lin. As soon as they saw the prosthetic body and its brain, Daju declared it hopeless: "The electrolytes and nutrients are all gone. The biological brain is completely dried up. The neural connection between the electronic components and the biological brain is completely severed. If it can still survive, it's a miracle."

"Although I'm not very knowledgeable about medical technology, this is what I see. Your master is dead."

Eleven sighed to the old female leopard.

The old leopard lowered its head.

But why can I live so long? So long that I even forget what my master originally looked like.

"Psychic power has transformed you, but you are already very old. You were seriously injured this time. Big Leopard, you won't live long." Eleven said.

Du Lin squatted down and stroked the old leopard.

It’s okay. Everyone is mortal. My master told me so. This was the last thing he said to me.

Having said that, she looked at Du Lin.

He also said that life will find a way out on its own, but those children don’t know right from wrong, and can’t distinguish truth from falsehood... Will you take them away from this evil land?

"Yes." Du Lin nodded.

In Durin's time, the Thainan civilization had a very humble ideal, which was to build a world where all cubs could have enough food.

Human children are cubs.

A leopard's child is also a cub.

Children grow up to be good or bad, and leopards grow up to be wild or skilled, but this is all a matter of education. Before they grow up with them, they are just cubs waiting to be fed.

Anyone with a kind heart should try their best to find food for all the cubs in the world.
