4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution - Vol 9 Chapter 112
When the Eye of the Void opens, everything here will perish.
‘Eye of the Void’ is something that is observing this place, and the opening of the Eye of the Void means that something is observing this place.
…they investigate a lot of this type of intelligence.
Creatures living in the safe zone are exploring the central area of Root of Hope through remote-controlled machinery.
It is very difficult to explore this star-sized core of hope with a diameter of three million kilometers, so they chose a location that seemed most likely to obtain intelligence.
This location is a silver wasteland, the surface is as hard as metal, and covered with countless dense traces.
These traces are densely engraved on the hard ground like symbols. After they first found this place, they immediately sent machines to fly to this area. They thought that these traces must have been left by some civilization.
Although they can’t understand the content of the traces, they have the universal translator of deep bacteria.
When they use machines to broadcast the local situation to the Abyssal bacteria, the Abyssal bacteria will translate the above content and record it in a language they can understand.
They don’t know why Abyssal bacteria know so much, but it is clear that Abyssal bacteria are very useful.
The Abyssal bacteria actually didn’t know what left the traces on the surface, or it didn’t record the content of the trace maker after seeing these traces, but only recorded what the traces meant.
These traces mainly mentioned something about the ‘Eye of the Void’, that is, when something started to observe here, a large amount of matter would turn into ‘energy’ and flow towards it.
Although there are many traces, there are not many descriptions, just talking about the Eye of the Void.
The creatures in the safe area were very surprised when they knew this. They thought that there was something beyond their imagination that was ‘absorbing’ here, and they couldn’t stop this process by themselves, so they decided to flee to the distance of the void.
They originally thought of creating an active safe zone to escape from the vicinity, a bit like the idea of a space ship, but because the ruins of the original layered civilization were absorbed and destroyed, they couldn’t find much information about the time when the safe zone was built in the past. , unable to modify its own security zone.
Then, they thought of other civilizations.
They discovered that there are so many root systems extending from the root of hope, and there must be civilizations similar to them on other root systems, and these civilizations may also be able to create a safe zone. They decided to look for any possibility on other root systems .
But when they decided to do this, they discovered that a series of abnormal phenomena appeared in the root of hope, that is, the center of the root of hope was collapsing.
It became… smaller and smaller, as if it was shrinking, and at the same time, the environment on the surface was also rapidly collapsing. The creatures in the original safe zone thought it was caused by energy absorption, but according to the description of the Abyssal bacteria, it seems that this is not the case .
The Abyssal Fungus stated in the records that the center of the Root of Hope is collapsing by itself, and it completely destroys itself from the inside, and the reason it does this is to prevent itself from being completely absorbed.
That is to say, this root of hope has its own thoughts, and it itself resists being absorbed.
At the same time, this absorption initially occurs at the center and slowly spreads to all other root systems. As long as the center and surrounding roots collapse, the absorption can be prevented from spreading.
After hearing this news, these creatures living in the safe zone believed that they might escape, but the machines they sent to other root systems did not find safe zones or similar things made by other civilizations.
Therefore, they finally decided to study their own safe zone. They could only dismantle the original entertainment facilities and transform them into manufacturing laboratories for the mobile safe zone.
Although these creatures have been entertaining, they still have some abilities. After continuous research, they finally created… safety armor.
Compared with the original safety zone with a diameter of hundreds of meters, the safety armor, as its name suggests, can only protect their own bodies. At this time, the collapse of the Root of Hope has almost extended to their location, which makes them have no choice but to leave.
But that’s not all.
Lin found that some of the creatures in the safe zone stayed. They believed that staying in the safe zone would be fine. As for the others, they all wore safety armor and left their original positions.
And the remaining creatures found that they were right. When the Root of Hope quickly collapsed, they were still safe inside. It seemed that no matter how much the outside energy surged, it couldn’t affect their internal environment.
This makes them very happy, the safe zone seems to be completely… invulnerable, and they can live here forever.
So these creatures witnessed the collapse process of the Root of Hope. As the center of the Root of Hope continued to collapse, most of it was absorbed as energy. The entire huge body continued to dissipate in the process, and finally only some Floating pieces.
As for the ending of the surrounding root system, they are also similar, they become tiny floating objects in the process of cracking and dissipating.
This creates new troubles for the residents of the safe zone, because the safe zone cannot be self-sufficient, and they need to obtain resources from the outside world. Originally, they have been obtained from the ruins of layered civilizations. Now these floating debris can Very few resources are provided.
They believe that the more distant roots should be unaffected, after all, it seems that the root of hope has successfully self-destructed, leaving the distant roots unaffected.
The Abyss bacteria also said the same thing. After recording the whole process, it expressed that the operation of Root of Hope was successful.
So the creatures in the safe zone once again sent machines to search for resources in the undestroyed parts of the distance, but they saw… the same scenery as before.
The original huge root system has disappeared, leaving only some small floating objects.
At first they thought they hadn’t gone far enough, so they kept going until nearly a hundred pom-pom years had passed…
They kept sending machines, and these machines kept repairing themselves with materials found on the road, covering a considerable distance.
But they never saw a complete part again, and it seems that there is no complete root system.
As for this situation, the Abyssal bacteria also analyzed it, and in fact, they did not start to analyze it until they went a long way.
Absorbing the center of the root of hope is an active process, that is, it is absorbed by the thing called the “Eye of the Void”, but other parts of the root system are also converted into energy, and these energies are not absorbed by the Eye of the Void. Instead, it flows into another space, which is an unforeseen place.
As a result, the entire root of hope dissipated and flowed into two places.
As Lin knew, the unforeseen land finally formed a new void, and what is this ‘Eye of the Void’… Lin thinks that the entrance should be at the center of the Root of Hope.
