Chapter 140 Observation

The erosion...is over.

The Builder left the Unforeseen Place, and the other half of its body went to the Normal Void.

After that, it never came back.

Maybe he was afraid that he would be completely eroded by the Abyss of Abandonment, or maybe something happened in the Normal Void.

After the builder left, it let the mutant Caiyun stay in this place and let it continue to observe the Abandoned Abyss.

It is the colorful cloud that Lin is encountering now.

It said that it actually had many companions, and these companions were also mutated colorful clouds.

They were all highly adaptable to terror, but these companions died one after another over a long period of time.

Some were killed by other creatures... such as the members of the Forgotten Guardians, and some were killed by each other.

Because these colorful clouds need... happiness.

What’s even more bizarre is that they really enjoy killing as a way to find happiness.

The more terrifying the place, the more they need to find happiness, so they started a war at some point in the past.

They constantly sought pleasure in fighting, but almost all of them died as a result.

The only one left alive was the one Lin met.

It doesn't simply live here. It has been receiving messages from the builders. The builders have given them some instructions, asking them to continuously observe this place and send the observed information back to the builders.

It has always completed these tasks and has also learned a lot from the builders.

It seemed like the builder was still studying this place after arriving in the normal void. The builder was also investigating things about the team leader in the normal void. The builder thought... the team leader might have died a long time ago.

The builders said it found many clues about the leader's death.

The Builder also believed that the leader was just like it, placing half of his body in an unpredictable place and the other half in the normal void.

After going to the normal void, the team leader still maintained his original life form.

Simply put, it is a 'pure thinking creature'.

It can control its own growth, shape and everything else through pure thought.

The builder doesn't know how the leader maintains it, generally speaking, creatures from unpredictable places need to undergo a big... change to the normal void.

For example, ordinary dream creatures need to live in a "carrier", and creatures like whirlwinds or phoenixes are more complicated.

In short, they have no way to completely transfer their life forms originally in unpredictable places to normal void.

And the team leader... did it. The builder believed that the team leader's life form was not much different from that in the unforeseen place.

Therefore, the builders can find traces of the leader's death. A creature as distinctive as the leader will leave many traces in the void.

These traces are the remnants of the leader's scattered consciousness.

The builders thought so, but there was no complete proof that the leader was indeed dead.

After that, the builders also discovered a special existence, that is...Lin.

The builders believe that Lin is the 'descendant' left behind by the leader.

In fact, it did not explain it in detail at the time, but only said that a mysterious "consciousness" was discovered in the void, and the general feeling of this consciousness was sent to Caiyun.

After Caiyun met Lin now, it was certain that this was the consciousness that the builders had mentioned at that time.

The Builder believes that Lin, like the leader, is a pure thinking creature, and it feels that Lin may be the only creature who can truly control the Abyss of Abandonment.

Because the Abandoned Abyss was left behind by the team leader, its function is to collect those team members who are lost in unforeseen places.

There are also wastes and so on, but only the same consciousness as the leader himself can truly control it.

Only then can the Abyss of Abandonment...see the true 'light'.

Although that's what the builder said at the time, Caiyun said the builder did not instruct it how to do it.

So, it just stays here and does what it wants to do.

Most of the time, Caiyun is here observing the situation.

The body left here by the builder has become part of the Abandoned Abyss, and it has undergone many changes.

The multi-layered horror environment created by the original builders is very different from the current one. Although the fact that the deeper you go, the scarier it is has not changed, the environment of each layer is very different from the original one. It is said that many strange things have appeared that were not originally there.

As for the members of the Forgotten Guardians, they also mainly move between these layers.

Caiyun’s favorite thing to do is... to entertain herself with the creatures here.

Caiyun said that the reason it could survive until now was because it was constantly looking for various kinds of...happiness.

The 'residual consciousness of the builder' that Lin discovered before, that is, the builder's brain, was controlled by Caiyun.

In fact, this is not a brain, but a block of dream energy that contains a lot of information.

Colorful clouds often contain a lot of information, and use the information to... play with the creatures that discover them.

Some creatures, such as the snow-white cylinder that Lin encountered before, discovered this "brain"... They felt that they could use it to control this place, or understand many things through it.

The colorful cloud can modify the information inside at any time, and in this way it can induce the creatures to do various things.

For example, letting them kill each other or do all kinds of weird things, Caiyun enjoys it.

Just like before, the Cylinder thought that it could control the horrific mutations here through the "brain" to make creatures forget the Abyss of Abandonment. This was also done by Caiyun.

In fact, the horror here will not mutate.

However, Caiyun made the cylinder feel that horror could mutate, so as to... enjoy watching it work hard for it.

Later, after Lin and Abu arrived, Caiyun decided to tell Lin what happened here.

It thinks this is what the builders expected.

It just didn't tell it directly, but expressed it through an illusion-like method, which is because it is trying to find fun in it.

At the same time, Caiyun told Lin that Lin’s arrival did have a certain impact on the Abyss of Abandonment.

Just like it is now.

At present, most of the creatures in this place have been strongly affected by the terror, and even those that have adapted seem to have lost their adaptability.

This isn't some kind of horror mutation or something, it's simply that... Lin has intensified the horror.

It can also be said that... Lin instantly shortened the distance between all creatures and the Abyss of Abandonment, so the terror they felt was much stronger than before.
