Chapter 249 Invasion

"This place... is indeed very suitable."

Here is a...'transparent' square space.

The surrounding ground and walls are about one kilometer long and wide, and through the transparent walls one can see the surging stellar environment outside.

A ball of Lin's fluff was floating in the space, and in front of the ball of fluff was Sharin's...image.

At least it looks like an image because it is translucent.

But it is not an illusion or anything, but Sharin's real body.

And this place is also the interior of the star, a mini intrastellar space created by Midgard.

Compared with the size of Midgard itself, it is indeed very small.

In fact, Lin had seen similar places when she was on Midgard before. Because the materials that make up Midgard itself would be destroyed when entering a star, they would enter the interior of the star through some methods similar to creating space.

But this space is too small, and Midgard itself cannot enter here. What is the meaning of the existence of this place?

Sharin told Lin that this place was mainly for 'onlookers'.

This star will attract various floating objects to the surrounding area, and then continuously produce "stargazers" on these floating objects, mainly for creatures like onlookers.

When a star camera is constantly recording the state of the stellar environment, it sometimes records some special information.

This special information can be said to be a 'code'.

The codes would change depending on the type of creatures living in the area, in order to make them possible to decipher.

If the creatures successfully decode the code, they will discover... the location of the next code.

After deciphering multiple codes, creatures can find ways to enter the small space in the star, and then they can come to this place.

As long as you get here, you can become a bystander.

After coming here, creatures will first learn some things, such as the relationship between star cameras and stars, as well as some knowledge about the illusion world.

Then, it will stay here forever and cannot leave, but can see things outside the star.

But it can see more than just that. The observer's "field of vision" will become wider and wider here, and the distance it can see will continue to increase over time.

In the end, you can even see the end of the void...at least that's the setting.

Simply put, this star is a "telescope". As long as there are living creatures that can enter the small space inside this star, it will somehow extend the environment that the living creatures in the space can see to the far end of the normal void.

This speed will get faster and faster until the end of the void...if the normal void has an end.

However, it is said that this function of the star has never been activated because there have been no onlookers.

No matter whether it was the gatekeepers before or some biological civilizations that appeared later, no creature could find the "password" to enter the small space through the star-shooting device.

Although it is possible for these biological civilizations to analyze the recorded information of the star-shooting device, the probability of analysis is very low.

And finding multiple passwords is actually a very difficult task, because these passwords need to go to many places in the surrounding void.

This space inside a star is extremely secretive and cannot be detected using normal methods of space detection.

Due to various restrictions, even though many civilizations have been born and these civilizations have studied star-shooting devices, no civilization... has ever become a bystander.

Until Sharlene arrived.

Of course, Sharlene is not just a bystander.

It invaded the system just as Lin thought.

Sharin said that the real function of this star telescope may be to transfer Midgard's consciousness.

The current Midgard is the same as the one Lin knew before, in a state similar to that of an eternal observer.

The world of illusion is the...'appearance' of its eternal observer state.

The current size of Midgard can also be judged through the illusion world.

It can be said that it is not as big as the Midgard Void that Lin knows, it should be much smaller.

Moreover, it has never grown in all these long years.

The state of eternal observer will grow. Although we don’t know the limit of growth, it will definitely expand slowly.

This Midgard does not have these states. In short, it is because of the particularity of the Collapsed Void that it has formed such a special eternal observer state.

The most special thing about it is that it opens up a certain kind of "control authority".

That is to say, any creature that can analyze the star-shooting device and enter the small space will have the authority to control the illusion world.

When they can see a certain location deep in the void, they can transfer the illusion world there.

This is what Sharlene thinks.

Because the creatures that enter the small space can only find that they have the ability to look into the depths of the void and may eventually see the end, but Sharin believes that they may see some special places while looking.

These places can then serve as transfer points for the illusion world, and the illusion world can be moved to that location.

Maybe after arriving at the new location, the illusion world will have new... growth or something.

The key point is that Sharin can invade through the spectator system set up by Midgard.

Sharin said that it could use this system to import its consciousness... into the world of illusion and occupy the 'space' of this eternal observer of Midgard.

The illusion world is not a space in the usual sense, but a state similar to those conscious creatures in unpredictable places.

But in any case, it can be considered a "container" that can hold all kinds of things, including Sharin's consciousness.

Sharin's main consciousness is in an unpredictable place, and it is a bit troublesome to control things here.

Of course, the normal void also has a "container", but the containers used before are not as warm as those in the illusion world.

But if the illusion world can be used as a container...Sharin's consciousness will be completely extended to the two voids.

Sharin discovered this when investigating the Hollow Tumbler, so she tried to carry out this plan.

Now it seems to be going well.

Sharin believed that there were no obstacles during the invasion. Although the body outside had been torn into pieces, this was a sign of a successful invasion.

But it cannot be considered a complete success yet. Various investigations are still needed to fully understand whether we can extend our consciousness here.

Therefore, Sharin now plans to "wait and see" through this space.

See where it can actually go.
