Chapter 145 Data Collection

"We can't leave here. We are missing a lot of... thoughts..."

"So are you, but you're free to move around, and you can explore and find it."

After the Ershi people that Lin observed lived an ordinary life for a long time, they went to a special place.

Here, it saw something huge... indescribable.

'Ancient consciousness'.

That's what the leader called them at first.

Because it gained the memory of going to another world, it has been trying to find a way to go to that world since then.

It had tried almost everything except suicide, and finally it suddenly got the 'invitation' at some point.

A group of powerful consciousness found it.

They say they have been here since long ago, and have watched these worlds come into being one after another.

These consciousnesses themselves are unable to move because their minds lack certain data and are therefore forever trapped in... one place.

And after they saw the birth of these worlds, they came up with some ideas.

They believe that these worlds can fill in the missing parts of their minds and make them whole again.

So they found...the leader.

They said that the leader was also one of them, but had completely lost himself and only a few "remnants" were left.

It was reborn as a remnant in the body of an Ershi citizen in a certain dream world. Although it was a remnant, it had the ability to move freely.

And these ancient consciousnesses found it and sent it to different worlds... to collect the missing data.

The team leader agreed readily at that time.

The main reason was that it didn't want to continue living the life of an ordinary Ershi citizen at that time. It was a wonderful thing for it to be able to go to the game world and experience a completely new life.

Then, it began its journey.

These companions of its 'ancient consciousness' helped it form a stable body, a body with powerful capabilities, and allowed it to use it to move between multiple worlds without having to change bodies as before.

This body was actually taken from a game world.

Although these ancient consciousnesses cannot move freely, they can still do some things.

When the Ershi people of Dream Ershi go to another world, they usually become the characters there. However, this is not because they think of new characters, but that the original Ershi bodies are reconstructed.

The new body that the ancient consciousness found for it was actually a reconstruction of the leader's body using a special set of data.

The body reconstructed this time is particularly stable and will not change any more.

The leader then also used the name of the new body itself.

Then, the leader begins to explore the new world, looking for missing data and going on various... adventures that it finds very interesting.

Because of its powerful abilities, it no longer dies so easily in the other world. It can constantly improve itself and become more and more powerful just like in a real game.

Later, it also went to many different worlds. Although it encountered many things, the team leader did not forget its main goal, which was to find the data to restore the ancient consciousness.

In fact, it doesn't know where the data is.

The ancient consciousness doesn't know either, but they all agree that continuous journey and understanding of the various conditions of these worlds... is the best way for them to find ways to recover data.

So, the leader’s journey continues.

During the journey, it met many Ershi people who, like it, originally came from the Dream Ershi.

Because of it, they were able to survive and formed a team to explore together, and more and more people joined.

Some are the Ershi people from the dream world of Ershi, and some are residents of other worlds or various creatures.

The leader's team grew larger and larger, so it built its own city in a certain world.

The leader built many 'gates' leading to other worlds in this city, allowing residents to go to different worlds through them.

In fact, these gates are 'mini jump points'.

They are all jump points that can jump to very close places, much closer than the jump points to unforeseen places.

It is also easier to start, and these mini jump points connect each different world.

Of course, all the different worlds are connected to the dreamland of Ershi, so the people of Ershi can "travel" to different different worlds.

The leader rarely went back to Dreamland Ersh. He mainly built cities in the first world he visited.

Moreover, more and more residents of this city joined the team, and their frequent activities in various different worlds soon attracted...attention.

Mainly the indigenous inhabitants of each world.

The inhabitants of the worlds simulated in these various works are not just decorations, they also have their own thoughts and lives... They will also feel very strange when they discover the Ershi people coming to their world.

Of course, most of the Ershi people have transformed into the appearance of the residents of this world, so it is not strange from the appearance.

It's just that their strange language and behavior have caused a lot of confusion. Some worlds have noticed that there may be invaders from other worlds, but they are not quite sure yet.

And when the leading residents traveled to different worlds in large numbers, the residents of many worlds finally noticed this.

When they discovered that there were indeed invaders from other worlds, they began various investigations and research.

These worlds soon discovered...the location of the leader.

They have many different attitudes towards the team leader. Some think the team leader is very dangerous, while others think the team leader's city is very good and can be used in many ways.

The leader's city eventually became a hub for many worlds, and residents from many different worlds came here... to exchange cultures, trade goods, flee, or engage in various conflicts, etc.

Since many worlds are in crisis, the inhabitants there will try to escape to the Leader for shelter.

Of course, it poses no threat to the team leader.

At that time, the team leader was mainly exploring and discovering more of the world.

The device is also continuing to create more worlds. What is special is that if a world is subject to too much external influence... then the device will stop updating this world.

There are also some more powerful creatures in the world who are studying things related to jump points.

They also discovered that it seemed that all the worlds were connected in one direction.

That is where Ersh is in the dream.

They discovered that Dream Ersh was continuously sending "invaders" to other worlds.

And they intend to put an end to this.
