While all sorts of things were happening in the Voidfolk world, something was happening on the other side as well …
This was the land of the Core Protectors.
A large and dazzling ball of light was slowly rotating before Lin. It was like a star, its surface boiling with incessant heat. Despite that, it did not feel hot at all.
As the core continued to change, the originally large number of stones, fog, and light balls continued to collide and combine. In the end, they combined into a huge sphere, which was exactly the same as the real Dream Core.
Apart from some differences, this could already be considered a new core …
There was only one day and night left before the core was completed.
"This is impossible! Is this world going to collapse just like that? "
Outside the Creator's body, the Researcher and a group of Core Protectors surrounded the Creator's body. They were in a state of despair.
"This is because you didn't tell us where that thing is!"
One of the Core Protectors expressed his anger at the Researcher. The Researcher replied, "Didn't you find that thing yourselves? You couldn't protect it and it was taken away! "
Lin felt like they had become like the Voidfolk, doing meaningless things like 'shirking their responsibilities'. This also meant that they were helpless.
"Let us leave."
However, one of the Core Protectors had a different idea from the others. It flew to a high altitude. It flew up to the sky and said to the other Core Protectors, "We've been guarding the core for too long … It's time to give it up."
"What are you talking about?" "Are you an anomaly?" "Why would you think that?"
However, its words were different. It did not seem to gain the other Core Protectors' approval.
"We don't have to stay here anymore …" the Core Protector continued, "We can go do our own things … We can use the Dream Core's energy storage device to survive. We don't have to continue guarding the core! "
"It's an anomaly!" The moment it finished speaking, the Core Protectors around it became extremely angry. They all charged at the anomaly.
The Core Protector immediately fled into the distance. Lin watched as the Core Protectors flew out of the cave where the Creator and the Dream Eater were.
"Those pitiful invaders …" The Researcher looked at the Core Protectors that flew away, showing an emotion of seeing 'The Fool'.
"So, what do you plan to do?"
Lin had one of the jumping spiders ask the researcher a question.
"It's right here, waiting for the world to collapse …" the researcher said. "However, it can't kill the Dream Eater. The Dream Eater will awaken once more and deal with the 'creator' of this collapsing world. As for my life … it has already reached its end. "
"But in reality, you won't reach the end" Lin replied: "Because this world won't collapse"
"What?" The researcher suddenly showed a very surprised expression. It seemed that it had not noticed the current situation at all.
"Didn't you notice? This place … "
'Boom!!!'
Before Lin could finish, she suddenly heard a rumbling sound around her. It was as if something had exploded. Moreover, this' sound 'appeared in her dream.
If that was the case, it should be …
"I'm done!"
Suddenly, an extremely strong emotion erupted from the creator like a huge wave. In an instant, it filled the entire cavern and spread out of the mountain …
It seemed that. The completion time was earlier than expected. This emotion meant that the creator had awakened and was in a state of extreme excitement.
The creator should now think that it had completed its dream. The core in its body had also reached a state of completion.
Lin turned her attention to the creator's body. There was a dazzling ball of light as bright as a star. On the surface of this ball of light, the boiling, lava-like energy seemed to be surging more violently than before …
'Boom!!!'
Suddenly, Lin noticed that the 'lava' was rapidly expanding. When it reached its limit, it suddenly exploded. At the same time, a huge tree grew out of it. Accompanying the tree were countless roots that extended rapidly. A few seconds later, they had enveloped the entire ball of light.
"I've done it! This core is mine! "
The creator's strong emotion erupted again, and this time, Lin could clearly sense the meaning of this emotion.
It seemed that the creator had completely awakened, and the process was perfect. There was no interference or interruption.
"Fluffy, I can sense that you're here."
The 'creator' seemed to be able to see the core of its body as well. It raised one of its tentacles towards Lin's direction and spoke: 「 Take a look at the foundation of my world, this is only the beginning, I will mold it to be even more perfect, even more … 」
"What are you!" "Get out of here!" "This is the place we must protect!"
But before the Creator could finish, hundreds of specks of light suddenly appeared around them, flying towards the Creator who was enveloping the core and 'shouting' incessantly.
"Get out of here!" "That's right! You can't be here! "" We must protect this place, protect this place forever! " These 'mini core protectors' were just as Lin thought. Even though the creator had completed the core, they did not grow and remained 'mini'.
While they were shouting, one of the core protectors suddenly said, "This is what we must protect!"
"What?" "That's impossible!" "It is what we must protect!" "That's right!"
Soon, the core protectors seemed to have changed their minds. They began to think that the creator was something they must protect …
"These creatures … What are they?"
Until now, the creator had finally expressed its opinion. It seemed that its initial excitement had been disrupted by the mini guardians.
"You don't know them?" Lin asked doubtfully.
"They … No, where did they come from?"
"You are what we must protect!" "That's right, we must protect you. You must be obedient and let us protect you, understand?" "That's right, don't run around, don't do anything we can't protect!"
The Core Protectors interrupted the creator's words and kept talking. While they were talking, Lin told the creator about the formation of the core in its body.
"What? Fluffy … You've been watching all this time? And these things … are the core creatures? "
"They are 'core protectors'," Lin told the creator. Lin told the creator: 「 Just like the ones outside, the only difference is that their intelligence … as well as their strength are a bit lacking 」
"You."
The creator sent a signal to the mini core protectors. The mini core protectors who had been talking non-stop suddenly froze.
The creator questioned them. "What is your purpose?"
"What? Our purpose is to protect you! "" That's right, that's our purpose. "
Bam! As soon as it finished speaking, the creator's tentacles shot out and sent the mini core protectors flying. They crashed heavily into the dark wall behind them.
This place was a bright area around the core and the light sphere. The mini core protectors were usually active here. Beyond that was the dark area, which seemed to be the edge of the Dream World.
"Why are you doing this?" "You can't touch what we are protecting! Otherwise, we'll be angry! "
The Core Protectors kept yelling, but the Creator's tentacles did not stop. It slammed into the Core Protectors who were sent flying, pressing them against the dark wall and pressing them down with great force.
The mini core protectors who were pressed against the wall cried out in pain. They were now about a meter tall, but much smaller than the tentacles.
"You have polluted my world," the creator said. "You should all disappear."
"We can't disappear!" "We won't disappear, we must protect you!" "If you make us disappear, you will disappear with us, just like us!"
Bam! The creator did not answer. Instead, it continued to send the mini core protectors flying. At the same time, the mini core protectors that were sent flying earlier dissipated under the pressure of the tentacles.
The moment they disappeared, Lin suddenly saw the dark area around the core expand.
Could it be …
The dark area was originally about forty meters away from the core, but now it was thirty meters away. This meant that killing the mini core protectors would increase the dark area.
In fact, it was just that the core of the Dream World had shrunk. If that was the case, the mini core protectors were not lying.
The creator seemed to have seen the situation in front of him, so he stopped.
"Do you understand? You can't just move! Otherwise, you'll disappear! "
Seeing the creator's tentacles stop, the mini core protectors seemed to become smug. But in fact, Lin felt that their emotions had not changed much, except for the fear when the creator was killed.
"There should be a way to get rid of these things, fluffy. You should think so too." The creator didn't care about their words and turned to Lin: 「 Tell me the details of how they were created 」
"They appeared suddenly," Lin said. "There was no formation process."
"Maybe they represent something … I will find out soon," the creator said. "If that's the case … let's ignore them for now. I need to deal with some matters outside."
