"You don't know what this is?"
"No, but at least we haven't been discovered."
The furball and the creator's tentacle looked at the light shining in the cave.
Like a beam of light, it shone down from the top of the cave and reached the ground of the cave. Furthermore, it was constantly changing colors.
"This might be a 'door'," the creator said, "It has the function of leading to other places."
With that, the creator crawled under the pillar of light, and its figure disappeared.
Lin felt that although the creator was afraid of being discovered, it didn't seem to care about its actions.
With that thought, the furball also flew into the pillar of light.
The surrounding scenery instantly changed, and the furball found that it had arrived at a vast place. The ground was a shallow black water similar to a quagmire. Although it was muddy, it could be seen to the bottom.
The sky was also of the same color, dark and muddy rain. Lin couldn't be sure if this was water. It was more like mud, perhaps a liquid form of another substance.
However, because this was the black metal's dream, she couldn't study it.
"This is their world." The creator's tentacle reached out from the water in front of the furball and said, "Finally, they let us directly observe the changes here …"
"This is … the brain spirit's world?"
After hearing that, the furball also began to observe the surrounding environment, but there seemed to be nothing here, only a shallow pool of water with no end in sight.
"It should be over there." The creator swam in a certain direction on the shallow water.
The furball also flew over, and there were indeed some sounds coming from that direction …
After flying for a while, the furball saw something. A strange object appeared in front of it.
"This is …" The furball and the creator arrived in front of this object. This object looked like a piece of rotten wood. It was about three meters long, but its surface looked like a metal structure.
"This is the 'brain spirit', the furball," the creator said, "their original form."
So that's how it is, it's just as Lin thought.
This piece of 'rotten wood' slowly moved on the surface of the water with its branch-like limbs. This should be the first thing the brain spirits created … an object that could be called a 'machine'.
They learned this technology …
And it didn't seem to notice the furball and the creator, still minding its own business. Why is it walking here by itself?
"There should be more over there."
Saying so. The creator swam to the other side.
Its speed was very fast. After dozens of seconds, the furball and the creator came to a place … that should be called a battlefield.
This was still a shallow water area, and in front of the furball, a large number of creatures were fighting each other. Their fighting style was very ordinary, just there to collide with each other.
But if one looked carefully … could see something special inside.
This was Brainiac's final battle. As it continued to watch, Pompom slowly understood everything that had happened here.
Although it had almost guessed it before.
The Brain Spirits and their new hosts managed to survive the attack of the branched species. After the division of labor species left, the brain spirits allowed their Hosts to use the items left behind by the division of labor species.
Combination and manufacturing technology.
Branching species usually like to modify and recombine their bodies. However, there were obviously exceptions.
In the world's''s's', the brain's's't's's's's's't '''t
These things were obtained by the Brain Spirits and their hosts. The Brain Spirits used this technology to modify their own dwellings.
Which was those stones.
It wasn't clear what those stones were, but at least there were some parts that looked like metal, and they could be reshaped into various shapes.
The brain spirits let their hosts create these stones, using them to create weapons, armor, or living quarters, and so on. What the brain spirits cared about was the automation structure.
The brain spirits had been researching this, and they should have succeeded in creating some kind of automation 'machine'.
The brain spirits could control this machine while living in it, instructing it to operate and do all kinds of things.
After obtaining such a thing, they intended to abandon their host.
Because of the Connectors, the brain spirits thought that living in a creature's' 'brain was an unreliable way of life, because this creature could betray them.
These creatures had complex minds, so they could be easily controlled by the brain spirits, but on the other hand, they could betray them at any time. The brain spirits had seen these creatures turn against each other over a small matter, so they wouldn't trust them.
So, they launched their final battle …
Killing their hosts, this way they would have something they could control to live on. They also knew how to replenish these things' 'energy, so they didn't need a host.
Although part of it was Lin's guess, the actual situation was more or less the same, just like what the pompoms were seeing.
As the battle continued, the brain spirits should be able to easily defeat their hosts. This was because the 'machines' that the brain spirits controlled were created by their hosts. Therefore, once the brain spirits resided in them, their hosts would be unable to use them. Therefore, they could only fight 'bare-handed'.
Although these hosts didn't seem to have arms, the brain spirits won.
The Brain Spirits won the battle. Although the machines they controlled looked like rotten wood, they were powerful enough.
After the last Host was killed, all the Brain Spirits suddenly stopped moving. It was as if … they were paused images.
"What happened?" The creator was confused. It swam over and approached one of the brain spirits' machines. "Why did it stop? This should be showing what happened next … "
'Boom!' Before the creator could finish speaking. There was a loud explosion in the distance. The pompoms and the creator immediately turned around. They saw a huge black wave rising from the ground and rolling towards them.
The pompoms and the creator didn't move, they just stood there and watched the huge wave coming towards them.
Because Lin knew that the environment here wasn't directly related to the pompoms. Although the creator looked like it was swimming in the water, it was actually floating in the air. It didn't come into direct contact with the water.
So, when the huge wave came, the pompoms and the creator directly passed through it. In the turbid wave, they could see countless things mixed in, including some creatures …
Then, the huge wave passed through the pompoms and the creator, directly rushing towards the brain spirits that had just finished fighting, sweeping them and their machines into the wave.
Something huge seemed to be happening here …
In fact, when they arrived here. Lin had always been curious about the environment here and why the ground was filled with black water. And why was there black rain falling from the sky?
Lin couldn't confirm whether it was water or not, but it seemed to mean that something abnormal had happened here.
"I know, Fluffy."
Suddenly, the creator flew into the air, and the pompoms followed.
It seemed that in this world, they weren't limited by gravity.
As her field of vision increased, Lin could see more and more things. The vast land below was almost completely covered by the black, mud-like liquid.
Violent explosions could be heard from time to time in certain places, and following the explosions, the mud-like waves began to wreak havoc everywhere.
In the sky, Lin also saw some creatures running in the water, avoiding the splashing waves, but they weren't as fast as the waves and were quickly swept away.
The creator moved at an extremely fast speed, and Lin followed it to see more of the situation.
This seemed to be what a world looked like when it collapsed. Next, the pompoms and the creator moved together for a long distance. The pompoms saw many different environments, like mountains, valleys, and all kinds of different creatures.
However, almost all of them were the same. They were covered by the black silt, except for the higher terrains. However, because of the attack of the huge waves, the mountains were almost dyed black.
Furthermore, it was raining black rain everywhere … …
At this point, Lin more or less understood.
It seemed that this strange situation was happening everywhere, and the black water seemed to be poisonous to the creatures here, causing them to slowly die.
But they didn't die quickly, so they looked to be in great pain.
Perhaps this was the reason why the branched creatures left? Because they knew that the world would become like that, so they might have gone to other places … such as the void.
And the remaining creatures here were almost all destroyed.
Lin and the 'Creator' spent several days and nights to travel to many places. Because this place seemed to be able to increase their speed, they quickly circled around the entire world.
The entire world seemed to have been submerged in the black mud.
How in the world did this happen? Did the mud come from the ground? Or from the sky?
There was no way to investigate this at all, because this was mainly a story about the brain spirits.
And the brain spirits were also one of the many creatures in danger.
However, they had an advantage that other creatures didn't have. They weren't afraid of the black water's toxicity, they only had to worry about the occasional explosions and other things.
Aside from the black water, strange explosions would also occur all over the world, and the ground and mountains would collapse.
If they could survive, the brain spirits would be the creature with the highest chance of survival, but they could also be … the last creature of this world. (To be continued …)
