Chapter 118 Parasitism

After this 'omniscient being' was 'resurrected' in the space of hope, it was in a state similar to that of an auxiliary brain.

It itself is the main consciousness as a space of hope.

But it is somewhat different from other main consciousnesses, it is not a free main consciousness.

It was attached to a living being like an auxiliary brain.

This creature was a creature it had met before during its journey, and was simply a byproduct of its space.

But it itself is like a 'vice', attached to this creature. Although it can give this creature advice... it cannot control the creature's actions.

Therefore, at first it could only watch this creature taking it around. Although it was the main consciousness of the space, it was mixed with this creature, so if the creature died, it would also be considered dead.

After it died, the space restarted, and then it found itself attached to a creature again.

This was the case in the previous few space cycles. The creature it attached to would always die.

It is different from the general Hope Space consciousness. It has memories of past travels, and this memory will not be reset every time the Hope Space is restarted.

But this also makes its life very uncomfortable. The creature it attaches itself to is different each time. They are all generated based on its memory data of creatures it has encountered before, and most of these creatures are... stupid.

Therefore, it has been hoping that the creatures in the space would die and come back to life. Although it has given suggestions, it is almost impossible for these creatures to survive for long.

At some point it somehow attached itself to a less stupid creature, and that creature lived well to the end of its lifespan.

Then, when it discovers that the creature's lifespan has come to an end, it can take control of the creature's body.

This is the same as the case with the Omniscient One.

Although this creature is not a creature with a dead brain but a living body, it can indeed be controlled.

From then on, it tried to leave the hope space.

Because it knows something about the unforeseen place, it really wants to enter the unforeseen place to take a look.

Later, it indeed successfully entered the unpredictable place. As for the process of entry... it seemed quite similar to Lin's.

In short, I got to know some creatures that can move between the spaces of hope, and then slowly arrived at an unforeseen place.

What is more special is that it died several times along the way, but it was not killed, but the body it controlled could not move.

It discovered that the body it controlled had a 'real lifespan', meaning it could continue to control it for a period of time after its original lifespan was up.

The time it controls also has an upper limit. Once the limit is reached, you are truly dead and cannot move at all.

Once the body of this creature can no longer move, it will slowly "rot".

To be precise, it transforms into dream energy fragments.

But it itself can still be preserved even after the body it controls is completely shattered.

It is said that its main body looks like a piece of...cloth.

Of course, its body cannot move, but it has some magical abilities...that is, it is difficult for other dream creatures to notice it.

When some dream creatures pass by it, it may stick to this dream creature and slowly merge with its body.

It seems that as the creature grows, the 'body tissue' wraps around it.

But even if it merges, it can't do anything.

It must wait until the dream creature dies... or more precisely, until its thinking core dies or is lost, then it can control the rest of the body to continue its activities.

It feels like a parasite.

Each body it controls has a certain lifespan, and it cannot control it for long.

If it finds that the body it controls is about to die, it will look for a more suitable place... that is, a place where it can possibly parasitize another creature and wait for death.

Then he continued to change his body to survive.

This kind of life was quite difficult for it, but one time it became parasitic upon a rather strange creature.

This creature...has never died.

After it parasitized, the creature remained alive, as if it had no upper limit to its lifespan.

Just when it thought it might remain parasitic forever, it suddenly felt that it was slowly gaining control over this creature.

For some unknown reason, the creature's consciousness was slowly weakening, while its cloth-like body was slowly growing, and finally spreading to the entire body of the creature.

This allowed it to gain physical control of the creature.

In fact, it felt like its body was growing and then actually merging with this creature.

Why this happened...it doesn't know either.

And after that, it also became an 'absolute consciousness' creature, which means that the whole body is the core of thinking.

At the same time, it also lost its parasitic ability and could no longer be separated from this body.

It can also be said that this body is its eternal body...it has been living in this body.

In fact, it already feels that it is not controlling the body of another creature, but itself... itself.

Anyway, after that, it lived as a normal dream creature in an unpredictable place.

It traveled to some places and knew a lot of things.

And now...I met Lin.

It can change its shape, so it can become the appearance of the Ershi people.

However, the speed of change is much slower than Lin's. It may take ten fluff balls of time to completely change to a new form.

At the same time, its healing speed is very slow, and any wound cannot heal immediately.

But it also has a special ability, which is that after its body is broken, it will enter a 'pause' state.

This will last for quite a while... and it will still work once you connect the disconnected part back.

However, if you disconnect for too long, you will still lose control of the disconnected part.

Since it cannot regenerate quickly, these disconnected parts are too important to be discarded at will.

After it said this, Lin also had a similar understanding of it. This creature is indeed very interesting...it has many wonderful things.

Now it says...it also wants to go with Lin to find its former leader.

If the leader is in this void, it shouldn't be difficult to find him.

And the most important thing now is to get out of here.

Although Lin thought it was a good idea to act with it, she didn't want to leave here so soon. In addition to reconstructing the dream of Ersh, she also wanted to understand the abandoned land better.

Because it's a very interesting place.

It said... apart from having come into contact with some knowledgeable creatures in the unpredictable land, its knowledge of this place mainly came from the builders of the Hanging City.
