Chapter 87 Contact

"I lived with them for... a long time."

The fragments created a 'body' in the shape of an Ershimin.

It itself still remains in its original position and cannot move, but it can gather some dream powers through some means to create a body.

This is related to the "color space" where the fragments originally stayed.

At some point, it suddenly discovered that it could return to its previous color space again, and it could continue to control colorful... things.

Although there are few of these colors left, it can still control them.

The most important thing is that the fragment can leave this space at any time and take away the colors it controls.

After the colorful things go outside, they turn into various kinds of dream energies, and they can still control these energies when they go outside.

So, after many studies and tests, it used this "colorful dream energy" to create the body of an Ershi people.

Then it took control of the body... and left this place.

It wasn't very smooth at first, but after many bodies died, it finally left the edge of the unpredictable land... and arrived at the space of hope.

The Fragment came into contact with the Ershi people living in space. Initially, it wanted to learn from them about the creatures that taught it.

But no one in Ershi knew.

The broken shadow then continued to wander in the space of hope, looking for different Ershi people to communicate with.

The Ershi people are considered to be "slightly more numerous" creatures in the Space of Hope. They appear in multiple spaces, and Shattered Shadow doesn't know why.

It’s just that these Ershi people…their level of knowledge is generally very low.

The knowledge of most Ershi people is limited to the 'surface level of tumblers'. They know almost nothing about the various things in the void, and they don't even know that they are in a special space.

But there are also a few who have rich knowledge. Some of the Ershi people know the difference between the unpredictable land and the normal void, and know that this is a special place.

And also has the ability to travel between hope spaces.

Fragmented Shadow has found these knowledgeable Ershi people, but during communication, they still could not provide any information to Fragmented Shadow.

But many Ershi people mentioned the creature Ershi, and almost all of these knowledgeable Ershi people obtained their knowledge from Ershi.

But there is one exception.

Fragment met a very special group of Ershi people. These Ershi people claimed that they had traveled to many places and learned all the knowledge by themselves.

And this special Ershi people have no connection with the creatures that taught the Fragments.

Shattered Shadow thought that perhaps the creature that taught it before had some connection with Ersh, so it wanted to try to find Ersh.

This is much more difficult because the body created by the fragments cannot leave the space of hope.

Since he couldn't find a way to leave, Shattered Shadow used this body to live with various Ershi people... for a long time.

These Ershi people can be roughly divided into three types.

One type is those who don’t even know how they came here. They are simply space residents born with the main consciousness of the hope space.

What is a little special here is that even if the main consciousness in the Hope Space is a creature that has no connection with the Ershi people, Ershi people will occasionally appear in their space, and these Ershi people who know nothing are the largest in number.

The second type of Ershi people are "those educated in Ershi". They get their knowledge from Ershi. They also know that they once lived on Ershi, but for some reason they left Ershi and came here.

In fact, most of them don’t know the reason for coming here, but they have a specific understanding of the environment of the hope space, and many of these Ershi people can travel between the hope spaces.

There is also a third type...a very special type of Ershi people.

This group of Ershi people claim that they learned all the knowledge by themselves... They mainly play a role in the Hope Space that can be called "Hope Mercenaries".

They appear when the main consciousness of a hopeful space becomes increasingly desperate in the cycle of reincarnation.

They are mainly used to save those main consciousnesses who are extremely desperate but still feel there is a glimmer of hope that something will come to save them.

Then this group of Ershi people will appear and help the main consciousness get rid of despair.

However, their help is not free, they will receive a certain amount of compensation from the main consciousness.

The reward is their memory data, which they have some way to extract.

This is a very mysterious organization. Fragment had been wandering in the Space of Hope for a long time before he got to know a little about them.

Then it slowly began to come into contact with the 'Hope Mercenaries' organization, and later it even came into contact with the leader of the organization.

After communication, Shattered Shadow learned that this leader had traveled to many places in the normal void. He had never lived in Ershi, but he knew Ershi.

Moreover, the leader said that if Shadow Fragment wanted to go to the normal void, he might be able to get there through some methods.

It mentioned a creature called 'Whirlwind'. The leader told Shattered Shadow that the Whirlwind was a creature whose 'soul' was in an unpredictable place, but whose body was in the normal void.

If Shadow Fragment uses a similar method, perhaps it can create a body in the normal void.

But the leader didn't know what to do. He just knew that there was such a creature as tornado.

Shattered Shadow began to try to find information about the tornado.

At the same time, it continued to communicate and live with these Ershi people.

Through long-term contact, Shattered Shadow learned that this leader had had some wonderful experiences when he was in the normal void.

Its earliest memory was being locked up in a transparent prison by a group of alien creatures, who treated it as a rare animal and auctioned it off in the capital of their own civilization.

Then it keeps going to various places, mostly to be bought and sold, and sometimes for other reasons.

It has even visited several different civilizations.

In short, it did not die, and it was exposed to a lot of knowledge... I don’t know if what it said was true, but this Ershimin must have had some wonderful experiences.

I just hope that this strange organization of mercenaries will disappear soon after that.

The leader disappeared after that, and Shattered Shadow never saw it again.

Because the fragment does not stay with them all the time, it mainly wanders in the space of hope.

Occasionally, when encountering members of the organization, Shattered Shadow would learn about their situation.

The organization disappeared completely without anyone noticing.

At that time, Shattered Shadow didn't care too much about this matter because it discovered something during its research.

It turns out that the flame stone...is essentially the same as the tornado.
