"Why do we need to maintain stability? Why do you ask such a pointless question? This Void needs to be stable. "
"Stability is the only truth. Nothing needs to change. Everything can be maintained endlessly, just like this place!"
"But what we do is not perfect."
"Yes, under the appearance of stability, there are many sacrifices. We must take these sacrifices into account."
These 'parasites' were very talkative.
This was a huge space station in the Void outside the model sand ocean.
In this space station, Lin found a large number of parasites that had once destroyed the brains of flesh and blood creatures.
These creatures were temporarily called 'stabilizers' by Lin.
After Lin encountered them, she first observed them with miniaturized soldiers. Then … she sent out an army of invisible pompoms to capture one of them and bring it back to the model sand ocean for investigation.
Lin mainly used the organs of the captain creature to examine the stabilizers. Through the examination, Lin learned … many things about the stabilizers.
For example, the history of flesh and blood creatures, as well as the stabilizers.
The stabilizers were a type of solidified hybrid creature. They were mainly made of solidified matter and normal matter to form their current body structure. From the outside, their bodies were cylindrical, one meter long, with many tentacles on both ends.
They also had high intelligence.
They had some wonderful abilities. For example, they could send signals similar to the captain creature's to affect the minds of other creatures … and they could also create many items with special functions.
For example, they could create a simulated brain to continuously command all flesh and blood creatures and so on.
What was interesting about them was that these stabilizers believed in … stability.
They were born with this belief. In other words, they wanted everything to remain unchanged.
Generally speaking, everything in the Void was constantly changing. Even the solidified Void was the same … of course, the changes were not that drastic.
But the stabilizers wanted everything to stop changing.
This was not to say that everything would be frozen. Instead, they intended to maintain the operation of things within a certain range without any changes.
And so, they set their sights on the flesh and blood creatures here with this mission. By invading and dismantling their brains … they successfully controlled the entire population of flesh and blood creatures.
Then, they maintained this place in a state where it would never change.
Although the flesh and blood creatures here could move, operate aircrafts to attack, maintain and repair aircrafts, they never upgraded aircrafts or spread to other places.
They had always lived here. And the stabilizers were here to observe this … stability.
Indeed, the flesh and blood creatures had never changed. This satisfied the stabilizers, but there was something else they were dissatisfied with.
That was the flesh and blood creatures' … food.
The flesh and blood creatures mainly obtained food from many places in the Void. Although they themselves were stable, the places where they obtained food were not.
Since the beginning, the places where they obtained food had changed many times. These places would always disappear for various reasons.
For example, they were destroyed, the food there, and so on and so forth.
The stabilizers wanted to obtain stable food. In fact, they wanted this place to achieve a perfect cycle.
In other words, the feeding and excretion of every living creature of flesh and blood formed a cycle, achieving infinite reuse of resources to survive.
Generally speaking, this was not very likely.
However, those who pursued stability wanted to achieve it.
As a result, these stabilizing bugs were planning to hold their 1002nd discussion on complete stabilization.
If not for Lin's interruption, the stabilizing bug that Lin caught would also be in a meeting right now.
..........................
But … why did they want to maintain stability?
They didn't know about this either. In short, this was what every stabilizing insect had to do after it was born.
Of course, they knew their abilities were limited, so they did not think about stabilizing the Void. Instead, they started simple.
Interestingly, although they liked to maintain the stability of their surroundings, they themselves were unstable.
In other words, the stabilizers themselves would 'evolve'.
In order to stabilize their surroundings, they would use various methods to improve their abilities. They did not care about their own changes at all.
Everything was for the sake of better stability.
They had been working hard to maintain the flesh and blood creatures, keeping them unchanged until now.
But their 'ambition' did not stop there. They wanted to stabilize more things in a larger area …
When their 'ambition' continued to grow, they suddenly noticed the arrival of the sand model.
These stabilizers had ways to detect space. They also had ways to interfere with space.
So they intercepted the space and decided to control it.
Their thoughts could be guessed without asking. They wanted to use this space to stabilize more things.
Obviously, compared to the void outside, it was much easier to create a stable environment in a space.
Lin was curious as to how they were able to stop the model from moving.
Regarding this, Lin found that the stabilizers tried to avoid answering Lin.
Lin noticed that there was a small part of their thoughts that the captain's organ could not detect. There was also no way to forcibly control their thoughts.
However, Lin also roughly knew that the thing they were using to block the sea of sand was in the space station that Lin had seen before.
Lin was exploring the huge space station with her minions.
The environment was quite complicated. There were narrow passages and rooms everywhere. It was like a maze.
And there were stabilizers everywhere. There were quite a lot of them.
And they seemed to know that Lin had invaded here. Although there was no way to catch Lin's minions, each stabilizer was constantly sending signals to the surroundings.
This way, they could interfere with the perception of Lin's minions … so that they could not accurately locate the key facilities in the space station.
Obviously, the thing they used to stop the sand model … it might be a device or a creature. It was placed somewhere in the space station.
As long as they found it, they would know what was going on.
Although they interfered with the perception of Lin's minions, Lin's minions quickly searched many places in the space station by devouring the microbes everywhere in the space station.
