"I've answered a lot of your questions. Now can you tell me where my mother is?"
When the First Born suddenly threw out the question, Hao Ren was still struggling with the effects of absorbing the lifeblood. He was jolted out of his thoughts by the First Born, and cold sweat began to trickle down his spine. Not only him, everyone at the scene tensed up when they heard the deadly question. Vivian quietly turned her head to study the pattern of the crystal peak, Y 'zaks hugged his daughter and began to discuss dinner plans, and Nangong Wuyue squatted on the ground pretending to tie her shoelaces. She was wearing sandals today, and there were no shoelaces!
"Well …" Hao Ren gulped, trying to figure out how to tell the First Born about the fall of the Goddess as tactfully as possible. "In fact, she …"
Vivian gently poked Hao Ren in the back. "Be tactful."
Hao Ren nodded, swallowed the words that he almost blurted out, and rearranged himself. "There was a war on the Star of Creation, and your mother's whereabouts were unknown after the war. But we just got evidence that the Goddess of Creation should still be sleeping in the depths of the universe …"
Vivian patted her chest and let out a sigh, and lowered her voice to Hao Ren's ear. "Scared the hell out of me. I was really afraid that you would blurt out 'your mother exploded'."
Hao Ren gritted his teeth to maintain his solemn expression, and sweat was dripping from his forehead. "I almost said it just now. Thanks to you poking me, I swallowed it back!"
Vivian's expression changed slightly, and she muttered to herself, "You have to watch your mouth from now on!"
The First Born was silent for a few seconds, apparently not satisfied with such an answer. "I kind of know about this. You've told me a little before. I want to know more details … What happened to my mother? "
Hao Ren licked his lips, and before answering, he first secretly confirmed the status of the mainframe of CARS through telepathy. After confirming that all firewalls and security measures were working, and that the First Born samples in Container No.1 and Container No.2 were still asleep, he asked, "So how much do you know about what happened back then? When did the Goddess of Creation lose contact with you? Did she tell you what happened to her? "
"Mother was at war, I know," said the eldest, who spoke of his mother in a childish tone at once. "Then she said it was dangerous, and would not let me see her. After that, I only received a message from my mother. She said that something bad was going to happen. My brothers and sisters would come to attack the garden. She said that there was no way to stop them, so she asked me to protect the things in the garden … After that, I don't know. "
Hao Ren asked a few more questions and confirmed that the First Born in front of him had lost contact with the Star of Creation before the fall of the Goddess, and due to a certain order of the Goddess of Creation, it had never actively contacted the Star of Creation or the mental network of other guardians after that moment, so it knew almost nothing about the evil war. It just protected the samples of the ecosphere within its coverage under the order of its mother, and this protection method was jointly designed by the First Born and the people of Zorm.
The First Born knew how powerful its brothers were. It knew that if millions of ancient creatures as powerful as itself came to attack Zorm, it would not be able to put up any resistance on its own. Whether it was fleeing or building a line of defense, it would be pointless. So it thought of preserving 'information'.
Information was the blueprint, and the blueprint was everything.
Abandoning those fragile physical forms, storing all the information of the evolution of the ecosphere as data in its own body, and waiting for everything to be safe before reshaping everything from the lifeblood. This was a bold and feasible plan. Because all life in the world could be built with the lifeblood, the only thing that made them unique in the world was its' information '. As long as these blueprints were preserved, when the time came to recreate the ecosphere with new materials, it would be a perfect resurrection.
On the basis of the First Born's plan, the people of Zorm also wrote something like the 'Index of Life' to calculate the intelligence and evolutionary level of all life on the planet, and developed a device that could extract and upload souls. Although the people of Zorm had little attainments in space technology, because they had maintained a connection with the First Born since ancient times, the people of Zorm had a good understanding of life and soul, which was very different from the impression of their heavy steel machines.
But just as the Aerymian elves in the forest could develop space warships, who said that the people of Zorm living in the steel city could not believe in the Primordial Life Sect?
The whole plan took nearly a hundred years to complete. In the end, the souls of the intelligent creatures were preserved, while the non-intelligent plants and primitive animals were only preserved with gene maps and ecological distribution maps. The entire ecosphere was organized into a huge blue map library, compressed and boarded the Ark of the virtual world. When the whole world was quiet, the First Born carried out the last step of the plan.
It launched the Blood Tide and dissolved the ecosphere of the entire planet.
After that, the ecosystem of Zorm disappeared from the physical plane, leaving only one ancient and powerful primitive creature on the planet, and the ghost of this ecosphere hid in the spiritual world of the First Born. There was no better disguise than this: when the other crazy guardians passed by Zorm while hunting the treacherous children, they saw a purified planet, and there was only the purest lifeblood and tentacles on the land. They had no doubt about it, and so the Zorm civilization survived.
The First Born answered all of Hao Ren's questions in detail, and its simplicity and straightforwardness were surprising. But this was the first time Hao Ren talked to a real First Born, so he was not sure if this creature would always be like this when it was awake.
After the First Born explained the whole process of building the sanctuary, Lily asked curiously, "After the virtual world was built, did other guardians pass by Zorm?"
"I sensed them two or three times, but they just went straight past," the First Born replied. "Probably thinking that other brothers and sisters have been here."
Y 'zaks then asked, "Then what about Zorm falling into the sun? How can a planet suddenly change its orbit without any external force? "
"We met a dust cloud. That was more than seven thousand years after I started dreaming. Our galaxy passed through a thick dust cloud, and all the planets slowed down. Some of my nerves and many of the devices on the planet's surface were damaged in the subsequent accidents, and then … I couldn't control my dream, and I couldn't even wake up to warn everyone."
Hao Ren rubbed his chin in thought. He could feel the First Born's low spirits. Even though it escaped death, it was still concerned about its' mother '. It took it for granted that these 'humans' in front of it should know more about its mother, and in fact, Hao Ren and the rest did know, but … no one knew how to talk about it.
While Lily and the First Born were talking, Vivian gave Hao Ren a look, which meant, "Can we keep it a secret?"
Of course, Vivian's look could have meant something else, but Hao Ren felt that if he could read such a complicated message from her eyes, it would be more awesome.
He shook his head slightly, indicating that it was only a matter of time before he said it.
A lie would require ten lies to cover up, and the distrust caused by a lie would require ten times the effort to make up for it. Now that the First Born no longer needed to focus on maintaining the 'Dream Ark', it could think of something when it was free. Instead of facing these unpredictable troubles, it was better to find a way to solve the problem once and for all.
This First Born did not witness the moment of the Goddess' fall, nor was it connected to the other guardians' crazy consciousness, so the impact of knowing the truth should not be that serious. As long as they paid attention to the words and the atmosphere, they should be able to keep things under control.
"About the Goddess of Creation …" Hao Ren took the initiative to speak and caught the First Born's attention. "We know something, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to talk about it. Wait a minute, I'll introduce you to someone. You two might even know each other."
He decided to let the guardian giant and the First Born meet.
