Chapter 131 Recording the Extra Things

"Its main purpose ... is to find things that have gone unnoticed, or that have been almost ignored."

The 'record' is said to have been originally found in the ruins of a civilization in the void.

It is also some kind of... intelligent machine, and seems to be something designed by this civilization.

And its function is a bit strange, which is to record things that are not usually paid attention to.

For example, in an explosion, organisms will generally focus on the power of the explosion itself, how much damage it has caused, etc.

What the recorder recorded was: 'The slight influence of the gravity of the stars in the distant void on the explosion.'

For example, in the case of a building, usually the creature will pay attention to the building itself, while the recording body will pay attention to how many dust particles are on the ground between here and the building.

In short, it will record things that are almost unnoticed, and this is determined based on the way biological thinking works.

Because different creatures pay close attention to things that some don't.

Therefore, in order for the recorder to function, it is necessary to first input the biological thinking data into it, including the way of perception and so on.

In this way, the recording body will judge for itself what the creature will ignore when observing things, and then it will specifically record the ignored information.

It also has a certain level of intelligence and can 'evolve' itself.

But no matter how it changes, it will not give up its goal of recording the neglected.

At that time, the team leader thought this thing was very interesting and brought it into the team.

This recording body also followed them along the way and recorded a lot of... things that they ignored.

As long as the information is registered on this recorder, it will help the creatures record neglected things. Since it generally records useless information, some team members including Abu think that it is used to record redundant information.

In fact, this is true. The information recorded in the record is not comprehensive.

For example, when they see a tumbler, the recording body may record how the dust 30,000 kilometers away from the tumbler is affected by the tumbler's gravity, or how much damage a distant star explosion has caused here.

Even if there is no harm at all, it will be recorded.

In short it is of little use because it records a random type of ignored information instead of all ignored information.

The team leader still thought it was interesting, so he let it follow the team all the time, and it also recorded a lot of redundant information.

At first, Abu thought that this information would definitely come in handy at some point, but in reality... it never was.

At least until Abu died, the recorded information was of no use.

The recording body itself is much larger in normal void than here, about one hundred meters in size, but it has shrunk a lot here, but its appearance has not changed at all.

And now it's broken.

Why on earth did it appear here...Lin was very curious about it.

There might be other team members here. Abu thinks it is just a coincidence that it is here. He thinks... this recorder might also be something from the hope space.

But there is no more information at present, so it is difficult to say how it came from. Lin thinks that maybe this place has some kind of attraction effect on the team members, allowing them to approach here relatively safely.

Thinking about it, Lin came to the location where the explosion had just occurred.

This location suddenly exploded, shattering the record...and the explosion seemed to be caused by this.

A black mass that looked like mud could be seen at the site of the explosion.

Lin used Veronica's hair to try to contact and test it, and found that this mass of "mud" was mixed with a lot of... information.

This information can be sensed just by touching it, and Lin discovered that they were all about the local environment and scenery.

Including the levels that Lin had visited before, as well as some places she had not been to.

I don’t feel there’s anything special from the information...it just allows me to better understand the environment here.

At the same time, Lin also felt that this might be related to the recording body.

"ah--!"

Suddenly Abu let out a...scream.

Lin saw a series of explosions on the augmented ground beneath its feet, and each time Abu was able to dodge before the explosion occurred. Every time it dodged, it would let out a cry and then quickly jump away.

Abu is not the kind of creature that habitually screams when encountering danger, and the most important thing is... it screamed before the explosion.

"Be careful, there is a big ..."

Abu suddenly jumped towards Veronica.

The moment it jumped, something behind it exploded violently, and a large amount of biological fragments and black mud splattered everywhere in the explosion.

Abu jumped away quickly and was not affected. He turned around, looked at the explosion site and said, "This is all... its recorded data."

"Are these all the recorded data?" Lin asked.

"That's right..." Abu said, "There is a lot of data it has collected underground. This data is made up of this kind of... mud-like energy that is squeezed here, but for some reason it has begun to explode."

'boom--!'

As soon as Abu finished speaking, a series of explosions were heard around him again.

This time it was not under Abu's feet, but on the growing ground within dozens of meters around him.

These augmentations that were used to make the ghost swords began to swell and explode, with mud splashing out from inside... As long as you touched it, you could feel the large amount of information inside.

Although most of the information was meaningless scenery information, Lin still received some useful information after using her hair to spread out to contact as much mud as possible.

It includes...some ideas about recording.

It mainly records some of the things that the body does in its 'life' here.

The record seems to have come here a long time ago, but no one knows how it got here.

Because these records only show what it saw as it lived deep within the wreckage of the builders.

It didn't feel any fear here, so it has been collecting...information.

Just like it always did.

For some reason, it could sense the thoughts of many kinds of creatures around it, so it determined the information that these creatures had ignored based on their thoughts. However, it did not record the information in its body as it did before. Instead, it turned it into mud-like energy and placed it on this layer of the augmented creature.

The growths that covered the ground here devoured the dream energy it had created, but did not break it down to create anything...it was just stored like this.

Until now, no one knows why it exploded.
