Chapter 85 Teachings

It is said that it was a plan made a long, long time ago.

There are very powerful creatures in the unforeseen land.

Like a distant shadow, the consciousness of a distant shadow can cover a huge range.

But just how big they are, no living thing actually knows.

No creature has ever fully detected the reach of a distant shadow.

All we know is that the general coverage area of ​​the Distant Shadow is much larger than the galaxy of Birsh.

Of course, there is more than one Distant Shadow, and they are distributed in some unpredictable areas.

Although residents in the Unforeseen Land who have some "void common sense" believe that the Distant Shadow is a giant creature, but... in fact this has never been confirmed.

Of course, they believe that any phenomenon is caused by living things, but they are not sure whether the distant shadow itself is a living thing... or whether this is a phenomenon caused by some living thing.

The Distant Shadow cannot communicate, and those creatures who like to study it do not know what it is trying to do.

Generally speaking, they would judge the life process of the Distant Shadow by the changes in things within the range of influence of the Distant Shadow, but the various changes in the Distant Shadow are difficult for them to understand.

This is even true for the Distant Shadow itself.

The creature that now appears in front of Lin and communicates with Lin is the Distant Shadow... or it can be said to be a very small fragment of the Distant Shadow.

It told Lin that in its previous memories, everything was strange, at least compared to now.

Because Lin was touching it, she could also feel its memory.

Its previous memory was probably that it could "see" everything around it as very colorful things, which were constantly colliding and breaking, and then merging and colliding again.

A long time ago, this kind of scenery has always been in its cognition.

Of course, it didn't think there was anything abnormal, and it could control the scenery itself.

It can make these "colorful objects" perform various actions and change into various shapes.

It didn't have any special ideas at that time, and had no concept of the void. It just kept watching these changing objects... and thought that such time would last forever.

Until sometime.

It found that the colors around it disappeared, replaced by pure darkness... and most importantly, it could not control the darkness.

It feels that darkness will eventually replace the colorful colors and make its vision monotonous.

Finally, there was only a little bit of color left that it could control, and when it thought it was irreversible, it found a special creature appearing in its 'eye'.

This creature...according to its description it also looks like a mixture of colors.

But unlike other colors, it cannot control this bunch of colors, and this bunch of colors can move on its own.

It was this creature that suddenly broke in that told it a lot of things...or it could be said that it conveyed a lot of things to it.

Like information about the void of the unpredictable land, and things about itself.

From then on, it learned that it was just a tiny fragment of the distant shadow.

Then, it was taken away from the colorful environment it had been looking at by this creature that suddenly broke in and came into the void.

Of course, it is the void of an unpredictable place.

When it first saw the void, it thought this place was similar to the previous one, a space with rich colors and darkness.

But it soon discovered that the void was very different from the colorful area where it was originally.

However, its various understandings of the void were told to it by the creature that brought it out.

It first learned that it was a fragment of the distant shadow, so it was named "Shadow Fragment".

The creature that came out with the fragments also changed from its original mass of color to another form.

Then, Shadow Broken continued to learn a lot from this creature.

This creature mainly taught Shattered Shadow many things about the void, allowing it to have an accurate understanding of the void and various creatures.

And it teaches more than just about unforeseen places.

There is also something about the normal void.

This creature that taught Shadow had traveled between the two voids, and it described to Shadow that there were quite a few differences between the two voids.

All of this made Fragment's knowledge increase rapidly, and it became more and more curious about it all.

However, the fragment itself cannot move.

It itself is a 'residual area' located in the void.

That is, some small areas with special environments left behind by the distant shadow after leaving.

The fragment itself is an area.

These small areas also have consciousness, and the consciousness of the fragment is this small area... but it has no way to move the small area at all.

However, because of the contact with this creature, Fragment can understand many things without moving.

The creature told Fragment many things, but what it wanted to know most was... what it was.

Although it was said before that it was a small fragment of the Distant Shadow, what exactly is this fragment?

The creature said it didn't know either.

It only knows that the distant shadows are extremely huge consciousnesses that continue to expand and extend in unpredictable places... and in the end disappear without a trace.

Creatures have always wanted to know whether the distant shadow finally died or left.

Biology has been studied for quite a long time.

Finally, it discovered that the small areas left behind after the distant shadow left and continued to be affected were themselves small fragments of consciousness.

At first, its communication with these fragments of consciousness ended in failure, but it also discovered one thing.

It’s not that they don’t want to communicate, but that they don’t know how to communicate.

If it wants to communicate with them, it must first give them...knowledge, and then it will try to continue testing.

After many tests, one fragment of consciousness finally responded. This fragment of consciousness... is the current fragment.

To Fragment, this process was like a creature breaking into its colorful space, telling it various things, and then taking it away.

The creature did not tell Shadow how it did it.

Then, the creature revealed its purpose to the fragment.

It believes that the fragments can sense those distant shadows that are moving away, and the fragments should be able to know where these huge consciousnesses have gone.

Then, the fragment began to try to perceive.

In fact, the fragment itself did not know how to perceive, so it established a "mental connection" with the creature at that time.

When they were connected, Fragment found that he could know how to sense.

...and it did sense it.

It then discovered that these huge distant shadows were carrying out a plan to allow themselves to grow in the normal void.

Lin is the product of this plan.

The plan is basically to "condense" the huge consciousness into very tiny matter in the normal void.
