So that's how it works.
Inside the city, Lin's Rock Spider was … floating in the air, looking at the colorful ooze on the city's ground.
The ooze was moving with the Rock Spider, but it didn't seem to be able to fly. Instead, it gathered on the ground below the Rock Spider.
Why were they chasing after Lin's army? Perhaps it was because Lin's Rock Spider was … 'making a wish'.
Simply put, it was strongly wishing for something to happen. When Lin told the Rock Spider to do so, it felt … a special feeling invading the Rock Spider's brain.
It felt like a sharp needle was poking into its brain, and this' thing 'was trying to connect with the Rock Spider's brain.
It seemed to be a special … way of connecting minds. As long as there was a strong wish, the brain would be connected.
The method of connection was unclear, but it was definitely not through signals. It was something like … a direct transmission. As long as there was a strong wish, the feeling of being invaded would instantly appear in the brain.
However, the interesting thing was that when Lin told the Rock Spider to stop its strong desire, the feeling would immediately disappear.
When Lin did so, the colored ooze seemed to … care a lot about the Rock Spider, and all the colored ooze in the city would gather towards the Rock Spider at this moment.
The colored ooze seemed to be able to invade a creature's brain through its wish to achieve something. How interesting. It seemed that without a strong wish, it couldn't invade, or rather, it wouldn't invade.
And when the creature stopped the strong wish after being invaded, its invasion would also end. However, normal creatures couldn't stop their wish.
A creature whose brain was invaded would fall into a trance. The brain would only think about the thing it desired and wouldn't care about anything else.
But Lin's Rock Spider wasn't like that. Lin could make the strong wish disappear, thus ending the colored ooze's invasion.
It was likely that it had been invading the brains of other creatures all along.
But why did it want to help other creatures achieve their wish? The actual situation wasn't clear.
Currently, they could only use the research institute's data to understand and speculate what kind of life it was.
In fact, the research institute didn't have much information about it. They only recorded a legend about it destroying a civilization inside the Midgard Pipeline, and a small amount of research data.
According to the information, the colored mud was a species that lived in the solidified crevices. However, it did not completely live in the solidified crevices. It would affect the normal void outside the crevices.
That was to let a certain place be illuminated by colorful light.
Every time a creature entered the colorful light and had a strong desire to achieve something, their brain would be invaded by the colored mud.
Creatures whose brains were invaded would be locked onto by the colored mud.
Even if it left the colorful light and went anywhere else, the colored mud would continue to be connected to its brain.
Then, the colored mud would transform the surrounding environment in a direction desired by the connected creature.
Some researchers speculated that this was the learning process of colored mud.
The colored mud learned and understood the things of the normal Void through the creatures it connected to, and tried to modify everything in the Void by helping the creatures fulfill their wishes.
What ordinary creatures wished for was definitely something they could not do, and the colored mud would do it for them. It was used to train themselves and their ability to modify the substances and things in the Void.
This was just a deduction made by a researcher who had studied colored mud.
The researcher believed that colored mud was a very … terrifying creature. It came from the solidified Void and tried to modify all the substances in the normal Void.
Simply put, the researcher believed that the colored mud was training its ability to modify substances by helping the creatures fulfill their wishes.
This theory … felt a little strange. Lin felt that if it wanted to modify substances, why would it help the creatures fulfill their wishes?
But it seemed that this theory … was a little possible.
Because the colored mud was indeed modifying this place. More accurately, it was modifying the desert.
Lin's rock spider floated in the sky. It was now close to the edge of the city. From here, it could clearly see … the scenery on the desert.
A large expanse of colored mud was slowly … moving on the desert.
It covered an area of several kilometers, but because the hole in the sky that connected the solidified crevices had disappeared … the colored mud did not continue to expand.
However, its influence continued to expand.
Lin could see that the colored mud was now slowly moving. Wherever it moved, it did not leave behind sand. Instead, it left behind … a soft, transparent substance.
It seemed that the colored mud had turned all the sand it came in contact with into this transparent substance. It was indeed modifying the surrounding environment, although the purpose of this modification was unclear.
But Lin was very interested in how it was being modified, so she planned to fly down to investigate.
Gurgle.
Suddenly, Lin heard … a sound.
She saw that the large expanse of mud on the desert suddenly … began to boil. Large bubbles kept popping up on the mud and then exploding. It seemed that something was happening inside the mud.
This thing was very strange … so it had a lot of research value.
Lin continued to let the rock spider descend. When it was about a hundred meters away from the mud, Lin suddenly noticed a new change.
An incomparably large … bubble appeared in the center of the colored mud.
It was different from other bubbles. It kept expanding and did not explode. As the bubble expanded, the colored mud also slowly … floated up from the ground.
As the bubble grew larger, the speed at which it rose also became faster and faster, faster and faster … just like …
Like a flying aircraft flying into the sky.
It did not look like it was rising because of buoyancy. Instead, it looked like it had some kind of propelling device. The entire colored mud, with the expanding bubble as the center, flew up into the sky.
Lin's rock spider grabbed the edge of the colored mud and flew up together with it.
The colored mud did not fly towards the city. Instead, it flew past the city and headed higher into the sky.
