"They've been breeding...keep...breeding!"
It is said that a long, long time ago, a group of creatures began to deal with 'garbage'.
'Trash'...is civilized creatures, to be precise, creatures living in various floating land masses and cities.
These creatures are generally individual creatures. They exist everywhere in the shadow of the void like the floating land blocks. Of course, they are not the only ones in the shadow of the void. Shadow Creatures'.
Creatures known as 'wanderers' are also a type of shadow creatures, and they pay more attention to civilized creatures on the land mass than other shadow creatures.
The rovers believe that the creatures on these landmasses are 'superfluous'.
That is to say, only shadow creatures in the shadow of the void can be regarded as 'normal creatures' in this environment, so the rover intends to clean up all the land blocks and the civilization creatures above.
Dealing with landmasses, however, seems to be quite difficult, as these landmasses will inexplicably reappear even if they are completely blown up.
After a period of investigation, the rover found a way to make the land masses disappear and never appear again, that is to throw them into this 'shortcut'.
Of course, only Lin called it a shortcut, and ordinary civilized creatures would call it something like 'doomsday black hole', while rovers called it a 'smasher'.
They will drag the land mass to the mouth of the hole and throw it in, which can make the land mass disappear completely.
So, they use the 'shortcut' as a trash basket for discarding land masses, to which rovers have been dragging land masses one after another.
But the shortcut seemed to be 'blocked', and the speed at which it smashed the land mass began to slow down extremely, but the rover dragged more and more land masses, and finally the situation that Lin is seeing now happened.
A large number of land masses are piled together to form a huge 'land blanket'.
What's even more peculiar is that the creatures above are constantly 'breeding', like fungi, and the original land masses began to grow frantically on these gathered land masses.
Although the original land mass also produced these creatures, the creatures on this land mass blanket grew much faster than normal land masses.
And they're not fungi or plants, so every creature is trying to survive, and then it's trying to escape.
There are many resources on the landmass for them to build various weapons and aircraft, and they keep escaping, but they are always stopped by the rovers.
Most creatures don't know what's going on here, they just want to escape this chaotic place.
But there are other creatures who have learned enough information to start planning... escape.
For example 'hope communicator'.
It is hoped that the communicator is a relatively large creature like the giant whale, but their shape is not fixed. From the outside, they look like a structure with a lot of metal parts.
These parts can be spliced and assembled at will, allowing them to transform between various forms. In addition to changing themselves, they can also make their parts fall off and attach to other creatures for control.
This is how hope communicators spread 'hope'.
It makes its own parts into 'armor' for other creatures to wear, and then protects their lives. In fact, after wearing this armor, the armor will slowly connect with the wearer's nerves. Next It is hoped that the communicator will be able to send signals to the wearer's brain to control the armor on it.
At this time, the armor will slowly disintegrate the wearer's body according to the order of the hope communicator, but it will not completely kill the wearer but leave the brain. At this time, the hope communicator can completely control the wearer .
But it must leave a brain as a 'signal relay station' to control the armor.
Because there are many species here, not every species' brain is suitable for a transit station, so I hope that the communicator will only pick those suitable species.
The purpose of all this is to escape from this place.
Any escaped creature will be attacked, no exceptions, but hopefully communicators will find that rovers are much less responsive to non-living creatures.
For example, some aircraft that do not ride on biological creatures can fly to long distances without being attacked.
But if there is a little creature on it, it will not work. For example, if there are microorganisms attached to it, or if the system of the aircraft is intelligent, they will be regarded as living creatures.
The communicator of hope is testing the rovers' criteria for... judgment on creatures.
It believes that if it can completely disguise as non-biological things, it will definitely be able to escape, although the rover will also drag those non-biological things back, but it can only fly far away, as long as it flies to the farthest distance and suddenly Speed up and you can escape their pursuit.
I hope the communicator thinks so, as for its test subjects, that is, the creatures that it wears the armor.
The parts it finds falling off will be judged as non-creatures, but it has no way to control the parts that are not worn by creatures.
Therefore, the hope communicator will adjust the memory and body of these creatures by decomposing the wearing creatures, and then let them escape for testing.
The creatures that Lin met before were just for the communicator to release for testing. Of course, they were also attacked.
I hope the communicator has been sending a large number of creatures out for testing, although it has been promoting its armor to protect every creature on the surface, in fact it never cared about the life of any creature until it encountered such a group biology.
That is Ershimin.
To be precise, it is a group of species like Ershi people that 'breeded' out on a certain land mass.
They were also initially spread "hope" by the communicator of hope and wore armor. The difference between them was that they noticed their own anomalies.
That is, the armor is disintegrating its own body.
The hope communicators themselves don't care whether they pay attention to it or not, and this group of 'Ersh people' went to the hope communicators. At first, they wanted to kill the hope communicators who deceived them, but after finding that they couldn't resist, the two sides Conditions were discussed.
After the 'Ershmin' learned about the overall situation in this area from the hope communicator, they also expressed despair for a time, but they quickly recovered their calm and made some suggestions, that is, to communicate with the rover.
The rovers themselves must also be intelligent creatures, and there must be the possibility of communication, so I hope the communicator will let them try and not send them out for the time being.
So they started to try to get in touch with the rovers, which was successful, that is, as Lynn saw before, there was a kind of rover that looked like a salamander and communicated with them, so they also learned about the roaming some of the goals of the author.
Just trying to persuade the rover to let them go is a little difficult.
