Chapter 283: Creatures in the Ring

The Captain... and many of the 'Customized Rings' left the civilization that created them and headed towards endless chaos.

The original purpose of this civilization was to allow these 'customized rings' to explore the way.

Because according to their understanding, the chaotic space is very huge, and it is easy for them to get lost in the chaos if they explore it on their own.

Many of the detection instruments they had built before, including ordinary custom rings, could not stay in chaos for long.

Because all these things will be affected by chaos and eventually disappear completely.

But after the customized ring produced the "creatures in the ring", it was possible to move long distances in the chaos... and finally reach the legendary normal void.

For this civilization, everything in the normal void is a very ancient record, and they also very much want to see everything there.

One characteristic of the creatures in the ring is that they can be replaced.

No matter what kind of creature it is, if it stays in chaos for too long it will go crazy.

This madness actually refers to the chaos of their thinking. In this case, the creature's mind will continue to imagine very quickly.

They were so fast that they didn't even know what they were thinking.

Finally, the thinking of living things becomes consistent with chaos, and it is said that even the structure of their entire bodies will slowly become chaotic.

The situation is similar for other non-living things. It seems that nothing can remain in chaos for a long time.

However, the creatures in the ring can be maintained all the time because when the creatures in the ring are about to become chaotic, the ring will replace them.

By constantly replacing new creatures, the entire circle can be prevented from becoming chaotic.

From the understanding of this group of civilized creatures, it seems that chaos starts from the "parts that can receive and store external information", such as the brain.

However, it is still unclear how it is determined. In fact, the skin can be said to be a part that can receive and store external information.

But generally speaking, parts like the skin are the last to become chaotic, and the first to become chaotic are the biological thinking inside...if it is a non-living thing, it is the computing system inside.

Something without any thinking, like a stone, can remain in chaos for a long time, and even a stone will slowly become chaotic.

Only by constant transformation can one survive in the chaotic space for a long time.

The Captain does not remember anything about his past, because he is not actually a living being, he has been replaced countless times.

Every time a certain distance is advanced in the chaos, the Customization Ring will begin to construct a new creature. The data for constructing this new creature has been collected long ago.

Generally, a ring stores data on hundreds of creatures. Whenever a creature is about to become chaotic, it will be abandoned and replaced by a new one to continue the journey.

This combination of creatures in a ring and custom rings allowed them to continue their journey for a long time.

But this journey is too long, or it can be said that the customized ring itself does not fly very fast, so even with hundreds of biological data as reserves, they still cannot fly for a long time.

After some custom rings have exhausted all biological data, they begin trying to construct new creatures.

Although they were originally able to obtain information from chaos to construct organisms, continuing to obtain information from chaos at this time would only lead to further chaos.

Many custom rings did this, so before they constructed living creatures, they became completely chaotic.

However, there are some customized rings that do not obtain information directly from chaos. They obtain data for creating creatures from certain places.

A few of these custom rings lasted longer, but most never left Chaos Space.

Only a select few managed to leave the chaotic space and go to the outside world.

The captain is one of these few.

It itself is not very clear what it experienced outside, but at least it has been to solidified void and normal void.

Finally it became one of the captains.

The captain's earliest memory was in the Mid Void, and it also underwent some changes at that time.

When the original customized ring replaces the creature in the ring, it is equivalent to replacing all past memories and thoughts. The new creature replaces the old creature and continues the journey.

Later, the captain became able to replace the creatures in the ring at will without affecting its memory and overall thinking.

Even so, it still doesn't remember

But it is not completely without memories of the past. The fear that the captain had previously shown towards chaotic creatures was also related to its past.

However, it really recalled the past because it came here and saw these "shadows".

These shadows are actually all the captain's past...memories.

A long time ago, when the Captain was still a Customized Ring traveling in Chaos Space, it replaced a considerable amount of biological data to maintain its journey.

Each biological data was constructed into a ring creature to prolong the journey, and when the ring creatures could no longer support it, they were not completely abandoned.

Some information left behind by the creatures in the used ring will be transmitted back to the location of the original civilization.

Civilization will use this information to understand the location and where these customized rings have gone.

The captain constantly replaced the creatures during the long journey and then sent back the information, which was the origin of these shadows.

Shadows are essentially creatures created by civilization after recycling information. Their original function was only to provide civilization with intelligence about the Customized Ring.

Now, that civilization is gone, so the shadows are free.

What is special is that these shadows have always had some kind of connection with the captain. They know the captain's general situation... and they also know what happened in the Mid Void.

Then, they began to look forward to the captain's return.

These shadows are trapped in the bubble area and cannot leave this place, but they think that after the captain comes back... they can leave this area and roam in the chaotic space.

The captain himself has the ability to transform into a chaotic creature like Shadow.

This is their main purpose of welcoming the captain here.

It’s just…the captain doesn’t want to be a creature of chaos.

Although it knew its past, it had no intention of living here.

It still feels like... it is a member of the Mid Void.

Then, the captain tried to leave this information behind so that other captains... or Lin could come here and discover it.

It has now been hijacked by these shadows, and if it doesn't want to, the shadows will force it to become a chaotic creature.
