Chapter 356 Devouring and Research

How to construct a space? It seems that this is produced 'over time'.

The earliest playground where anything could enter and exit.

When these things pass through the edge of the activity field and enter the interior, they will instantly become active, otherwise they will remain still if they move outward.

Over time, a special phenomenon will occur...some substances will not go out when they touch the edge, but will be bounced back by the edge.

Gradually, there were more and more such things, and finally almost everything could not leave the activity field. The edge of the activity field seemed to have become a wall, isolating the moving things inside from the stationary things outside.

At first, the edge of the activity field could be touched from the outside, but gradually some parts of the activity field became untouchable, and it seemed to disappear just like that.

But in fact it has not disappeared, the matter inside is still there, it’s just that this place cannot be reached by normal means.

It's like...it's become a separate space.

At this time, the creatures living inside will specially open an entrance and exit so that they can enter and exit this place.

Then, this creature became a space creature.

The granular creatures have never really understood why the activity field has changed in this way. The "rules" of this void have always been... difficult to understand.

It also doesn't know whether this is the influence of the source of stillness or a phenomenon that has always existed in the void.

What it didn't expect was that the place where it was was also a similar...space.

Some creatures are very good at discovering other spaces. They have the ability to find hidden spaces and go inside to do various things.

So at some point, the granular creatures discovered that some space creatures appeared in the space where they were.

These creatures seemed to have discovered this place by chance and just came in. In fact, the granular creatures did not notice how they got in.

This group of alien creatures are huge creatures, nearly one kilometer long, and are called "Interspers".

Their shape is very similar to belemnites. Simply put, they have a conical body and huge tentacles on their heads.

They are named this way because they eat up space.

Many space creatures like to store a large amount of supplies in their own space, generally food and the like. The most important thing is that these spaces are usually only tens of meters or smaller in size.

The "Space Devourer" is a creature that specializes in devouring space, or more precisely, devouring the resources in space.

They have a way of searching space and devouring everything in it.

This was the first time for this group of space-eaters to see a space much larger than themselves, but as per habit, they would also fly in here and look for something to devour.

There is currently almost no moving objects in the 'cognitive doomsday' space where the granular creatures are located, so the devourers encounter a large number of floating objects.

But if they think it is suitable food, they will swallow it.

This is the first time in a long time that the granular creatures have felt danger again.

It has been observing various creatures and influencing their thoughts and activities. The particle creature has always had a feeling that it is... a "god", but it now suddenly discovers that these creatures it has been observing can easily kill it.

There are ten of these devourers in total. They roam around in space, looking for anything to eat.

But in addition to eating, they also have a strong curiosity.

Devourers are intelligent creatures with strange hobbies. Every time they devour the contents of a space, they will study the history inside.

For example, how long do the creatures in the space live, how long did it take them to build this space, and so on.

The space devourers learn about their history by devouring them, and then they will compare with each other of their own kind to see who has swallowed a longer space history.

If they devour a space that is old enough, they will decorate their shells with parts of all the creatures in that space, such as bones or similar parts.

When they encounter such a huge space, they will become extremely interested and try to explore it.

The particle creature initially thought that the space was large enough and it could avoid the giant creature finding itself by hiding in some 'corners', but it found that it was wrong.

These ten space-devourers wandered in the space for quite a long time.

They study this by dismantling and devouring everything here, but the more they study, the less they understand.

Because the things in the cognitive doomsday space are things they have never seen before, they cannot infer the history of these things, and everything in it seems to have no direct connection with the formation of the space.

So they kept searching, looking and researching everywhere.

This lasted for a whole Ershi year, and this group of huge creatures never gave up. Moreover, they did not just look for it on their own, but could also release a large number of 'troops'.

These troops are actually the offspring of the Devourers, a group of creatures tens of meters in size.

They would follow the adult space devourers to learn about the history of space, and after their search, the granular creatures were finally found.

Since the pellet was the only moving thing they found, they immediately grabbed it.

Interspersed creatures usually kill creatures in the space, but because the situation in this space is too special, they decided to keep the particle creature alive. An interspersed creature locked the particle creature in its body and tried to study everything here from it.

The granular creature was also quite curious about why this space-eater liked to study space so much, but it was more concerned about its own safety.

So, it tried to communicate with the Devourer.

If the two parties can communicate, perhaps no dangerous incidents will occur. If the other party trusts it, then it can... find a way to get rid of this group of things.

The granular creatures slowly established communication with these interphagists, which was quite easy since the interphagists understood the languages ​​of many creatures.

Then the granular creatures told them...about the history of this place.

The granular creatures did not hide anything, but just ignored some details.

When the granular creatures mentioned the stellar pipeline, this group of space devourers became very interested and gathered around the pipeline.

At this time, the stellar pipeline was still floating somewhere in space. The Spy had seen it before, but had no way to study it.

Because it is still "burning" like a star, the Devourer cannot approach it.

The granular creatures told them that there were some special methods to study stellar pipelines.

This special method is to rush directly into the center of the pipe and make direct contact with the pipe.
