Chapter 158: Consciousness in the Void
The leader found a way to move its consciousness.
Because it reached the 'border' between normal void and unpredictable place.
It found that it could use this boundary to 'peel off' consciousness.
At the same time, it also studied the way the distant shadow moved... Finally, it successfully found a way that suited it to make its consciousness move.
In fact, it means letting yourself enter the normal void and transferring your consciousness to the normal void at the same time.
The leader didn't tell Lin in detail how it did it, it just said... it was successful at that time.
The team leader successfully allowed most of his consciousness to follow his body into the normal void when entering the normal void.
It was somewhat like a phoenix or a whirlwind-like creature, with consciousness constituting a body in its normal void.
And the consciousness also moves along with the normal void body.
The appearance of this body is still the original game character design.
Its huge consciousness completely follows this body and is no longer located in an unpredictable place.
But it cannot be observed in normal void, so it is in a very strange state.
Some companions also followed the leader to the normal void, but most of the original companions were unable to follow.
Even so, the leader still embarked on a journey in the normal void, and was surprised to find that almost everything here... was almost exactly the same as what it knew when it was an Ershi citizen.
Like the various rules of the void here, the gorgeous stars, and the numerous creatures that exist within these rules.
Of course, many things here are beyond its previous cognition, but it does not make it feel that "this is another void", but makes it think that all of this belongs to the normal void.
After that, the leader roamed around in the normal void, seeing countless wonderful things and encountering countless dangers.
The team leader thought that the time of exploration was the most interesting time.
It explored for a long, long time.
Initially it couldn't teleport and mostly just floated to get around, but later on it developed some methods of moving quickly.
During the exploration process, it also discovered that many creatures from unforeseen places lived various lives here, and many creatures did not know that they came from unforeseen places.
Gradually, the team leader also realized that it seemed that the two voids had collided a long time ago.
And at some point, the leader encountered the consciousness of the Distant Shadow.
It discovered that the consciousness of the Distant Shadow had also come to the normal void through some method, and its consciousness was wandering in the void.
However, what the leader cared about at that time was not the consciousness of the Distant Shadow, but another... familiar feeling.
It can sense a very familiar message nearby, which is very similar to the dream Ersh.
So the team leader headed in the direction where the familiar feeling came from.
Soon, the team leader found the familiar place, which was... Ersh.
At that time, Ershi was still in a very primitive state, and there were no Ershi people at all.
But the team leader still felt a sense of familiarity from it, so he began to explore Ersh.
Ersh also noticed the team leader at this time, so he took the initiative to communicate with the team leader.
The first thing Ershi said to the leader was: "...Are you...the source?"
At that time, the team leader talked with Ersh for a long time.
The team leader learned about Ersh's "Source Exploration Plan" and knew that Dream Ersh and the starry sky simulation device were all designed by it, so the team leader became extremely curious about Ersh.
Ersh told the team leader something very interesting.
It turns out that the leader, that is, the ancient consciousness, has an influence range that is not limited to the unpredictable land, but sometimes also affects... the normal void.
Things like "distorted shapes" had appeared in some places in the normal void. Ersh had seen them before and felt the ancient consciousness from them.
It felt that these things were related to the bus creatures, so it began to explore their origins.
After an unknown amount of time, Ersh said that the investigation finally had a response, and the team leader was this response.
But when the leader came in front of it, Ersh felt very strange again. Ersh, who directly felt the leader's consciousness, thought... it was not the source.
However, being a leader is also a very strange and powerful consciousness.
After getting to know Ersh, the team leader chatted with it for a long time and then left.
The team leader believed that Ersh was very powerful and knowledgeable at that time.
What the team leader wanted to know most from Ersh was about the past.
That is about the mixing of two voids, and Ersh also told it a lot of things.
Ersh believed that the reason why creatures from such unpredictable places could exist here in some strange forms was mainly because the void had been mixed with them a long time ago.
After learning a lot, the team leader left Ersh and continued to explore the void.
What it is more concerned about now is the matter concerning the void mixing, and it wants to find out more information.
Of course, it still has great interest in exploring the normal void.
Then the leader continued his journey in the void...looking for new things and knowledge.
Then, the team leader encountered again... the consciousness of the Distant Shadow.
It found that the consciousness of this distant shadow was much smaller than before. This did not mean that its consciousness was weakened or something... but that it had entered a special state.
The leader felt that if this consciousness had a suitable "carrier", it might be able to control the carrier like it did and move around in the normal void.
At this time, the team leader took the consciousness of this distant shadow and searched for a suitable carrier in the void.
Although consciousness itself is an elusive thing, the leader has some ways to make it follow him.
Later, when traveling in the void, the leader discovered a familiar feeling, which was Ersh's feeling.
It thought Ersh had come near it, but when it went to the place where it felt, it found that it was not Ersh.
But it was a... tumbler that looked very much like Ersh's.
That is... the world of pom-poms.
After the leader discovered the fluff world, he conducted some investigations here and found this place very interesting.
Because...it connects Ersh and also connects to another world.
It feels like all three of them are exactly the same.
At that time, the team leader wanted the consciousness of the Distant Shadow to stay here.
It felt that this consciousness might be active here using something as a vehicle.
But later, the team leader discovered that it was... wrong.
This consciousness affected the connection between the three worlds and led to the destruction of one world.
