Chapter 314 Gathering Point

"What exactly is cognition?"

It is said that the perception here is not entirely true.

Some Ershi people discovered this... Just like sunlight can appear out of thin air, so can other things.

Some Ershi people discovered that they could still survive even in the void.

Because the Ershi people have some knowledge of most things that can sustain their lives, some of them can still survive after entering the void.

In this 'cognitive doomsday' space, a group of Ershi people discovered this.

This group of Ershi people also suffered from cognitive changes. When they found that the things around them were increasingly different from their original cognition, they tried every possible way to get rid of this phenomenon.

Escaping from the surface was their final solution.

Because no matter where they go, their cognition will continue to be affected, so this group of Ershi people feel that this distortion of cognition will take effect on the entire surface.

This group of Ershi people tried to leave the surface, and then they found a void tourism aircraft.

The Ershi people of this era have already started the void tourism industry, which is actually just flying to low-Earth orbit for a stroll.

And it is not known whether it was good luck or bad luck, but although this group of Ershi people had no relevant practitioners, they figured out a way to start the aircraft. The aircraft itself was not damaged and could be started intact.

Although they don't know how to drive, the cognitive doomsday is constantly affecting them, making them want to escape from here like crazy. In addition, the aircraft has an automatic driving mode, so they directly board the aircraft and fly into the void.

The aircraft was set to automatic mode. Originally, it would take this group of Ershi people for a spin in the void and then fly back, but something seemed to have gone wrong at the time. The aircraft did not return to the surface, but continued to fly into deep space.

However, what these Ershi people are most concerned about is that their cognitive doomsday has not ended after they flew out.

They found that things around them were becoming increasingly weird, so this group of Ershi people... went crazy.

This is more like the scenes in some movies, where the Ershi people on the aircraft began to kill each other in a mentally ill state. These Ershi people killed their companions... or things that were no longer companions in their cognition, and then threw the bodies into the void outside.

Some of the Ershi people also jumped out by themselves, letting themselves float in the void and die... but they found that they were not dead.

Instead, they just kept floating there. Some of the Ershi people just kept floating down like that, but some... floated to this place.

This place looks like a huge Ershimin skull from the outside.

This skull is called the 'Skull of Change'.

It is a place where creatures affected by cognitive doomsday gather. All the things wandering here are affected creatures... They are all species that originally lived in the normal void, but are trapped in the space of cognitive doomsday.

The Skull of All Changes can be said to be their 'salvation', because every creature here sees a different shape.

The Ershi people saw the shape of their own skulls, while other creatures saw other shapes.

No matter how deeply they are affected by the cognitive doomsday, this ever-changing skull will continue to change, and its shape will not be unified.

So when I look at it, I also have a feeling that my cognition has not been completely distorted.

Of course, these creatures gather here not only to "maintain self-awareness", they also intend to destroy cognitive doomsday.

They think there is a way to kill Cognitive Doom... this creature.

Some creatures also think that cognitive doomsday is not a biological thing, but may be the special rules of this space or something.

In short, the first step of resistance is to rebel against this rule, and to keep your mind from being completely affected by watching the Skull of All Changes.

These creatures will communicate with each other and tell each other what the Skull of Everchanging looks like. They also use this to confirm that the Skull of Everchanging seen by each different creature looks different.

However, apart from looking at the Skull of All Changes, the cognition of the creatures here has been completely synchronized, which is why they can communicate.

Some creatures use their senses changed by the cognitive end of the world to understand the things around them and invent ways to communicate.

The earliest group of creatures that came here were considered the founders of this resistance force. They had a way to communicate with any creature affected by cognitive doomsday, and they were also the ones who proposed the idea of ​​destroying cognitive doomsday.

But it is said that the Skull of All Changes was here before these earliest creatures.

As for why the Skull of Everlasting is here... they don't know either, but they have now transformed the Skull of Everlasting into a fortress with powerful firepower.

It will automatically attack some approaching...enemy troops.

The enemy is just some 'troops' of cognitive doomsday, and the Skull of All Changes can automatically determine what are the troops of cognitive doomsday.

The flying vehicle assembled by Lin and Sharin was previously identified by it as an enemy, but it was not clear why.

Generally speaking... the enemies are pretty brutal creatures, and they'll attack the Skull of All Changes as soon as they get close.

It would not react at all to creatures as small as Lin and Sharin, seemingly because the enemies were never that small.

"I see."

After Ershimin finished introducing these, Sharin said, "Then we are going to meet the first creatures that came here."

"It doesn't care about us very much." Ershimin said, "Although it will tell every creature that comes in here about the situation of this place, it will not care about us after that."

"Besides me, there are many smaller creatures, and it just lets us wander around here and fend for ourselves."

Ershimin said: "It only cares about the stronger creatures."

"That's only natural." Sharin said, "You look weak."

"But..." Ershimin suddenly became a little excited and asked, "Aren't you also floating here like me? And why do you remain the same? Have you been affected by the change in cognition?"

"It's not quite the same." Sharin said, "Anyway, let's go and take a look."

After saying goodbye to this Ershimin, Lin and Sharin flew to the target location.

The founders of the organization that resists cognitive apocalypse are also the first creatures to arrive at the Skull of All Changes. These creatures look quite conspicuous.

From a distance, they looked like a pile of cards tens of meters in size, floating near the center of the Skull of All Changes.
