This should be a … … dreamscape core?
Lin had just discovered this thing. It was the first crystal that the threaded creature used to create the Core Protector.
It was over ten metres in size and looked exactly the same as the crystals that were commonly seen here. Its shape was also irregular.
And inside it was something that Lin was familiar with … … a dreamscape core.
Lin had taken it out from underground and it was now on the surface. It was placed inside a larger attack rock and Lin was now studying it.
The dreamscape cores that Lin had seen so far all looked like stars in the dreamscape. They also looked like spheres wrapped in lava. This one was no exception. Lin's pompom was currently moving around on the surface of this dreamscape core.
The surface that looked like it was surging with high temperature was actually not hot at all. Lin's pompom quickly circled around it.
This dream core was like a star. If the pompom was one meter in size, then this dream core was more than 30 meters in size.
It was much smaller than the creator's core.
Lin did not know how this dreamscape core was related to the threaded creature, but she felt that it was not created by it. Rather, the threaded creature had discovered this core at some point in time.
Then, it learned … … how to use the core.
Right now, there was no Core Protector here, but … … Lin noticed that one of them was in the process of being created.
The pompom flew to a certain location in the core. Here, within the churning 'lava', there was a … … vortex.
And at the center of the vortex. A bright light could be seen. As the vortex spun, the light grew bigger and bigger. In the end, it flew out of the vortex.
It formed a sphere of light that looked exactly the same as the previous Core Protectors … … It seemed to be the newly born Core Protector.
"You dare enter such a protected place?! If you don't leave, I will cause you great … … harm! "
The moment the Core Protector discovered the pompom, it immediately used its usual method to 'threaten' the pompom.
Usually when they do this, it means that they are not actually a threat if they encounter a target that they can really hurt. If they really did encounter a threat, they would not waste time talking and would directly attack.
Lin ignored it. Instead, she circled around it and flew into the vortex where the Core Protector was born.
"You actually want to defile this place!" Seeing this, the Core Protector immediately chased after them, but … it didn't do anything else, it just chased after them.
After reaching the depths of the vortex, Lin could see that there was nothing but flowing lava all around her, as if there was no other path to take.
However. Here, he could discover … something special.
A dot of light suddenly appeared in front of the pompom.
This point of light slowly grew bigger and bigger, as if it was growing. From the surroundings, there were many fine spots of light that constantly floated to this point of light, causing it to continue to grow.
It seemed that the next Core Protector was also in the process of being created … This dream core seemed to be continuously creating Core Protectors. But what Lin cared about was. Why were there so many Core Protectors here?
These Core Protectors were not created by the Dream Core itself. Instead, it had received some sort of … order to create them.
Lin was now able to examine the situation in the core, mainly to investigate the 'dynamics' of the dreamforce here.
Lin had been studying various things related to dreamforce, of course, including the Dream Core. Dreamforce was a very special thing, but after studying it, Lin slowly understood a lot …
For example, the activities of the Dream Core. After studying the creator's core, Lin found that many functions of the core could be changed.
If there was something that had enough 'authority' to give the core instructions, then the core would act according to its wishes. In that case, the core would act according to its will, and Lin only knew of one creature that had the authority to command the core.
After all, the core could be considered as its own creation, so it had the ability to make adjustments, but it couldn't completely control the core.
As for the core that didn't belong to it, it seemed that it had no way of controlling it. For example … the brain spirits, they had never been able to control their cores.
Now, Lin saw another creature that had the authority to control the core. It was the threaded creature that was discovered underground in this world.
This creature didn't seem like it should have this ability. It had nothing to do with dreamforce, but it had indeed given the core instructions and allowed the core to create Core Protectors.
The core might have originally had some Core Protectors, but there weren't many of them. Now, there were many Core Protectors scattered all over this world, mainly due to the threaded creature.
It was to deal with the fear energy. Lin wanted to know how it did it. She could find some clues in the core.
This was … the thread's' thoughts'. In order to give orders to the core, the thread had guided its thoughts … into the core. To be more precise, the core had recorded the thread's thoughts, and the thread had once used its' brain 'to connect to the core.
When it connected, the thread's … memories were recorded by the core, and Lin could examine them here.
This memory was much more complete than the one Lin had examined in the thread. It practically described … the life of this creature.
So that's how it was … this creature … was like this.
The first memory Lin saw wasn't the thread creature, but … a raging bug. At the same time, that was a long time ago. In fact, it hadn't been that long.
In short, the raging bugs at that time weren't as developed. At least, they didn't know how to make missiles. They lived a more primitive and simple life in this world. They used and made simple tools, and gathered on the plains to build stone cities, somewhat like the Emerald Dragons of the past.
However, the raging bugs had a special 'custom', and that was … a custom that could be called the 'path to godhood'.
The raging bugs would select some 'elites' from the group every once in a while, and these elites would undergo a ritual.
The ritual started by eating a large amount of special … food, and then they would leave the group and embark on an adventure in this world.
The main character in Lin's memory was one of the elite raging bugs that participated in the ritual. After the ritual, it set off towards the distant wasteland.
Although many raging bugs set off together, they would separate after they set off. There was no contact at all, and they relied on their own strength to survive.
The plains at that time weren't as barren as they were now, and there were many creatures. It was a very rich world, but of course, it was also a very dangerous world.
It was said that after going through a lot of training, they could become … 'gods'. In the raging bugs' legends, as long as they went through the ritual and survived the adventure, they could obtain an infinitely extended consciousness, and become … 'gods' that knew everything.
They didn't actually have the word 'god', but they all had similar meanings.
Therefore, they would hold this ritual every once in a while, in order to make a certain raging bug become a god. However, they had never succeeded.
Even so, they still believed that there was a chance of success. The main character in this memory was the same. It could be said that it worked very hard in the beginning, and it explored the world and worked hard to survive.
Moreover, it managed to survive for a long time.
At first, it had a very hard life, and it didn't have a fixed place to live. It wandered everywhere, and then it found an underground cave. It entered the cave and built a residence inside.
Then, it settled down there. Although it went out, it didn't go too far.
Everything was carried out with this residence as the center. Just like that, it lived for a long time.
About ten pom-poms years.
After living for so long, the raging bug's thoughts were full of questions. How could it become a god?
The legends of the species only said that one could become a god through training, but it didn't explain in detail how to do it.
The raging bug regretted not figuring it out, but these legends were originally like that. There were only some vague descriptions, and no specific details.
Later, at some point, there was suddenly … an earthquake.
The raging bug had to escape from its original place of residence. It didn't go to the surface, but moved deeper into the cave.
The cave went deep into the ground. Although the environment inside was wide, there were no food resources.
The raging bug slowly fell into the predicament of hunger.
The feeling of hunger accompanied it until it was exhausted … At the last moment, the raging bug fell to the ground, but it didn't completely die. It should have entered a state of coma.
After waking up, the raging bug found itself in a cave full of … crystals. This environment was completely different from the previous rock cave.
In addition to the rock wall being made of crystals, there was a large crystal on the ground in the cave.
This … seemed to be the core of the dream.
The raging bug didn't care about this now. Although it was in a strange place, its hunger didn't disappear. It didn't eat at all. After a while, it fell to the ground again and entered a state of coma.
After this, it didn't wake up again.
Or rather, it didn't wake up as a raging bug …
When its consciousness recovered, it found that its … body had changed into a different appearance, and its brain, or rather its thinking ability, had become stronger.
It quickly came to a conclusion that it had become a … god whose thinking could be infinitely extended. (To be continued.)
