Vol 9 Chapter 55: shadow of the void

"They've been trying to unravel the secrets here, and so are we."
"We've touched this place many times and found more answers each time, and now we hope it's the last."
A large group of creatures are floating in the dark air.
They are mainly a combination of an intelligent giant whale and a large number of whale dwellers.
Not long ago, the wise giant whales told the whale dwellers about their history, and the whale dwellers were very surprised and confused.
They don't know what to do now, or what to do in the future.
Wisdom giant whales say that they can stay in this ruins and transform everything here at will, and they can guide the whale dwellers to develop in the direction they want to develop.
Therefore, some whale dwellers also decided to settle down and try to live in this place even though it seems that there is nothing here.
But now the Whale Whale has one priority, and that is another approaching Phantom Ruin.
It has drifted to the vicinity of the ruins of the giant whale, which is only tens of thousands of kilometers away.
This ruin looks very similar to the ruins of the wisdom giant whale. It is full of buildings suitable for the creature of the size of the wisdom giant whale, but compared to the stone piles made by the wisdom giant whale, the buildings of this ruin are more regular. , they are all square, and they are relatively neatly arranged on the surface of the entire land mass.
When this ruin appeared, many intelligent giant whales left their residence and came outside, and then they told the whale dwellers that they could explore with them.
Most of the whale dwellers stayed where they were, but a few showed interest. In fact, they were not interested in the ruins, but wanted to continue to follow the intelligent giants to ask them questions.
What Lin thinks is more interesting is that these giant whales can use their brains to control some kind of 'power' around them to form a transparent ship that carries them in the past.
Therefore, Lin also investigated the brains of these intelligent giant whales, and Lin found that their brains were completely different from ordinary giant whales. It looked like a flickering nebula, but it was actually composed of a strange substance. Lin felt that it should be a material unique to this space.
On the way forward, the wise giant whale continued to tell the whale dwellers about the situation here, and Lin was able to learn a lot of things through them.
During the long years of living here, the wisdom whales have been trying to investigate the secrets of this huge space. Of course, they were just investigating some floating ruins at first. When there are ruins approaching, they will try their best to investigate. it.
At first they were completely unable to understand the various information records left in these ruins, but as they observed more, they found that they began to understand slowly.
They only need to 'look' to know the contents of the buildings in the ruins that recorded the history of civilization.
Later, they didn't even need to look at those key buildings, they could understand just by seeing the entire ruins. Simply put, the abilities of giant whales seem to have been 'evolving' in this place.
As they learned more and more, special records were also found in some ruins.
Some other species are also investigating the situation in this place, which is this huge space.
From that time on, the wise giant whales discovered that they were not in the original void, but in a new place, so they began to mainly investigate the situation in this regard.
After that, the wise whale encountered a special ruin, which is the one it was going to now.
Other ruins are basically touched once and then never touched again, but this one has been touched many times.
This ruin belongs to a very special civilization. They are very similar to intelligent giant whales. In addition to their physical proximity, they can also understand the details of their surroundings through 'observation'.
The species has come to the conclusion that this vast space is a kind of 'abandoned tunnel'.
That is, in the era before the Void Split, there were many species trying to build some long-distance space tunnels.
Over a long period of time, various civilizations have built many tunnels, but none of them seem to be as huge as the void tunnels in the normal void.
These spaces constructed by various civilizations have been abandoned or even collapsed due to various reasons such as the fall of civilization. According to the wisdom giant whale, the space tunnels established by the civilization at that time could not be directly connected, but required some devices. to maintain the joint space.
When these devices fall into disrepair, or are destroyed for some reason, the tunnels they create also collapse.
But these collapsed space tunnels did not disappear completely, but were hidden somewhere. Of course, the various buildings and other things built by civilizations in the tunnels were also preserved.
As more and more tunnels are made by various civilizations, there are more and more abandoned tunnels, and after these tunnels have been abandoned and collapsed, they have gathered in the abandoned for some unknown reason.
Although the tunnels made by a single civilization are not very large, the accumulation of a large number of abandoned tunnels has caused it to form a rather huge space.
This huge space has grown over a long period of time, eventually forming an area known as the 'Void Shadow'.
The name is mainly because it has some wonderful characteristics, such as the ruins in the abandoned space, which will appear near other civilizations in the form of phantoms.
Later, it seemed to further gain some kind of consciousness, or that something powerful took its control, this 'shadow of the void' began to purposefully collect various civilization creatures, by placing phantom ruins near those civilizations that were on the verge of extinction Materialize, let those civilized creatures escape to it.
Then recycle the phantom ruins, and then 'torture' the civilized creatures on it.
It's just that I don't know why, what is controlling it, and what is the purpose?
The smart whale said that the species on the ruins had obtained these answers through research, but they still did not get the final answer, but every time they approached the ruins, they could update some information, and they might find more in the future. .
Lin felt that this should have something to do with the recording area and the current void tunnel.
Soon after, the giant whale landed on a building in the ruins with a group of whale dwellers.
This building is a square with a length, width and height of more than two kilometers, and the surface of the building is covered with dense traces.
By observing the traces above, the giant whale discovered something new.
This seems to make it frightened. Before, the giant whale was relatively stable most of the time, but now it suddenly became very shocked.
"Must get out of here!"
