Chapter 152 All

“They weren’t cleaned up.”

A long time ago, certain creatures lived in the area where the ancient consciousness was located. Due to excessive negative emotions, the ancient consciousness appeared in a form full of negative energy.

At this time, the Guardian of Order arrived.

They destroyed all forms of ancient consciousness, and of course, they also believed that the creatures here had been contaminated by negative energy, so they killed them all.

But the Guardians of Order did not harm the ancient consciousness itself, and they just left.

What exactly is the Ancient Consciousness itself? The leader said it is similar to the Distant Shadow, a 'thinking area' covering a huge area.

It’s just that under normal circumstances the ancient consciousness will not have any impact on the area it covers, so it is not easy to be noticed.

Only when creatures come and settle here for a period of time, will the ancient consciousness produce numerous dream energy accumulations, that is, various "forms", based on the thoughts and emotions of these creatures.

Later, some creatures came to live here, but because they were mostly negative, when the ancient consciousness appeared, they were all negative forms.

Once negative forms appear, they generally destroy the creatures that have settled here. If some creatures escape, they will spread the news that this place is full of negative energy.

This is also why the Guardians of Order come.

It’s just… they didn’t notice the ancient consciousness itself.

In fact, it was not the creatures in the unpredictable land who noticed the ancient consciousness itself, but... Ersh.

Ersh didn't know how it noticed this, but it believed that the area where the ancient consciousness was located was the source of bus thinking.

After the extinction of a large number of creatures, the ancient consciousness also welcomed the special things sent by Ersh.

A dream star, and...a starry sky simulation device.

The Ershi people in the dreamland Ershi live here, and the starry sky simulation device constructs the starry sky for them.

The original setting of the starry sky simulation device was just to construct a galaxy tumbler for the Ershi people to land on, and there were no more settings besides that for them to view the distant starry sky.

The ancient consciousness also began to slowly collect the thought data of these creatures at that time.

This is different from the past. The ancient consciousness did not create its form in the dream world.

At this time, the ancient consciousness has been continuously receiving a large amount of data. In addition to the thoughts of the Ershi people, this data includes the dream Ershi itself and various data from the starry sky simulation device.

Generally speaking, ancient consciousness does not receive data other than biological thinking, but this time it is a little different.

It received a lot of data from the starry sky simulation device and obtained a lot of intelligence about Ersh from it.

To be precise, it is Ersh's "predictive intelligence".

Dream Ersh is what Ersh predicted... a result of the development and evolution of the creatures on it. A lot of information, including many things in the normal void, are stored in the simulation device.

And the ancient consciousness received these devices for unknown reasons.

At the same time, the ancient consciousness did not manifest itself in form as usual, but... instead caused many impacts on the starry sky simulation device.

It is said that some special dream energy entered the system of the starry sky simulation device at that time and changed the behavior of the device.

This allows the device to continue constructing after it has finished creating the starry sky scene.

What it constructs are those different worlds.

The various worlds imagined in Er Shimin's works were constructed by the starry sky simulation device.

But the simulator was not originally designed to construct them, and there were no related settings.

This is actually the influence of ancient consciousness.

Ancient consciousness...it seemed to input the data from Dream Ersh's various works into the simulation device.

However, those detailed settings seem to be automatically supplemented by the simulation device.

This allowed the simulation device to begin constructing imaginary alien worlds and the life environment there.

The main reason seems to be that the ancient consciousness has developed its own thinking since some unknown time.

The ancient consciousness itself has no thoughts, although it is considered a living being by the standards of the Unforeseeable Land.

But it itself will not take the initiative to do anything. The forms that were previously displayed according to the emotions of the creatures will not have any special actions except for spreading the emotions.

After Ersh arrived in the dream, the ancient consciousness seemed to have its own ideas.

It seems to like all kinds of information brought by the simulation device from the dream Ershi, and also likes the works of Ershimin.

It wants them to be directly manifested, and so it influences the simulation apparatus to construct these worlds.

As the world became more and more constructed, the ancient consciousness condensed into a "form" in the dreamland of Ersh.

This form is the original...leader.

It knew nothing at that time and just thought it was an ordinary Ershi citizen.

However, after it condenses, it has special abilities and can often go to various different worlds to experience life.

It was just that its ordinary Ershimin thinking prevented it from surviving for too long in any alien world.

Until it got in touch with another ancient consciousness.

Several other ancient consciousnesses are actually condensations similar to the team leader.

It’s just that they don’t have their own forms, and are condensed in different alien worlds.

Although they were unable to move at the beginning, they all felt that they had to collect data. As long as they collected enough data... they would become more and more complete.

Then you can slowly move around.

In fact, the process of collecting data is not mainly about collection, but about...experience.

That is to say, let yourself, as a creature that can move in various realms, experience the various things happening in the various realms.

Different cultures, different environments, different lives.

During the leader's long adventure, it experienced quite a lot of things, and in the end the only thing it had not experienced was "war".

Although there are many wars of varying sizes in various other worlds, mixed wars among various realms can provide more experience.

After a large-scale war, these ancient consciousnesses slowly began to move.

Why can experiencing these things make them move? The leader thinks this is a process of gradually perfecting the ancient consciousness thinking.

Although the ancient consciousness originally obtained a large amount of data from the dream Ersh, these data could not enable it to move.

It needs to experience most of the content in these data, and only after experiencing them can its thinking become "complete".

That’s what the team leader thought at the time.

With the continuous experience, its thinking is also rapidly becoming complete.

It is at the center of the simulation device, and can feel not only the simulation device, but also other ancient consciousnesses.
