Chapter 1,462 Looking for Traces
The first time I got accurate information about the Dragon of the Void was a few years ago. At that time, I had arrived in the holy city of Estali. While observing the stars, I accidentally discovered that there was an abnormal space distortion in the sky.
Space distortion actually happens quite often, but most people won't notice it. Because such a phenomenon will not cause any physical harm to the human body, and it cannot be observed purely with the naked eye.
It is like a river flowing from west to east. Water can flow straight through the river. Even if the river has a few bends along the way, the water still flows from west to east in the general direction. The water will not stop flowing just because the river has turned.
Although the human body is not a liquid, from the high-level concept of "space", people are not a fixed shape.
Another more intuitive example is to use the curved mirror surface to make the people in the mirror appear to be of different heights, heights, fatness and thinness. No matter how the mirror bends, a person is still one person, with arms and legs, and will not become two or two halves.
However, such spatial distortion can be discovered through side observation of third-party phenomena and then proven through mathematical verification.
The first discovery of the Void Dragon's whereabouts was actually just the discovery of the spatial distortion left by its passage. And at the beginning, I never thought that these were the 'footprints' left by some kind of creature. At that time, I had no idea about the 'Dragon of the Void'.
Not to mention whether it is a legendary creature, in fact, among the legends widely circulated in the land, there is surprisingly little news about the Dragon of the Void. Most people have no idea what this is.

When it was discovered for the second time, it was already speculated whether the thing that left the space distortion phenomenon was the Dragon of the Void, a legendary creature whose existence could not be confirmed. So as soon as someone saw the trace, he immediately chased after it.
Because I can't observe it with the naked eye, I don't know what I should be looking at. They say they are chasing after them, but in fact they are just chasing after new spatial distortion phenomena that appear one after another, all the way slowly.
If the distribution positions of these new spatial distortion phenomena are disordered and random, then you may have to wonder whether this is a natural phenomenon unique to the Lost Land. Just like the ebb and flow of the sea.
As for the situation on the earth, I can't observe it myself, and no scientist has published such a paper, so I don't know whether the same phenomenon exists on the earth.
But in fact, when chasing, the space distortion phenomenon has a certain trajectory, and the distance tends to become farther and farther. It was as if some living creature realized that it was being chased, so it ran away faster and faster.
This made Lin realize for the first time that there must be some kind of will behind these spatial distortion phenomena. It is not necessarily a 'living creature' with strict definitions and life characteristics in the world you live in.
The reason for wanting to chase the Dragon of the Void stems from the irresponsible remarks of a certain World Tree.
Lin has confirmed that none of the different worlds connected by the World Trees belong to the earth. So why did I travel from the earth to the Lost Lands?
According to World Tree, it is possible to bring things from other worlds to the lost land. In addition to World Tree, the Dragon of the Void is another possibility.
Since it can bring itself here, it can theoretically send itself back too!
So Lin wanted to gamble on the possibility. So the first step is to capture the Void Dragon, or at least get a chance to communicate with it face to face.
Of course, Lin also studied the record of the second experience afterwards and gained some insights from it. The most precious thing is to capture a trace of evidence that seems to be the footprints of the Void Dragon.
If it could be confirmed that those were indeed the footprints of the Void Dragon, then he would no longer have to chase the space distortion phenomenon and try to find the annoying dragon. If everything moves too slowly, you will always be chasing.
For the third time, this time, the footprints of the Void Dragon triggered an alarm set by someone. Of course, Lin launched the capture plan he had made before.
Although it is said to be a plan, the content is mostly based on improvisation. After all, my understanding of the Dragon of the Void is still quite shallow. I haven't obtained much substantive evidence, and I can't decide on many targeted methods.
What's more, this is to capture, not to kill! Thinking about Zhao Yun's ability to enter and leave Changbanpo seven times, the biggest reason was that Cao Cao loved talents and couldn't bear to shoot him with random arrows. He just wanted to capture this powerful general alive and subdue him. This is what made Changshan Zhao Zilong famous. If he had been allowed to shoot arrows from the beginning, Lu Bu would have become a porcupine.
In short, catching is more troublesome than killing. But this time there were hundreds more boxes than before, and Lin directly asked Fen to help, which could greatly increase someone's confidence in the success of the capture.
If this lineup can't catch a single hair, it will really be a crime other than war.
After the alarm sounded and Haofen was contacted, Lin flashed into the sky. Immediately, all the Shaggiri Kenmaru were released and scattered around, at least ten kilometers away.
Without relying on external objects, Lin's complete monitoring range of the surrounding environment is a radius of fifty meters. The maximum range can be expanded to nearly one kilometer, but doing so will involve most of your computing power and attention.
When the monitoring range is increased by one meter, the energy consumed is not just one-fiftieth of the basic increase. You should know that the monitoring range is a spherical range, not a linear or circular area. In an open place, the detection range is of course increased, after all, there are fewer obstructions that may occupy computing power.
The scattered Shakiri Kenmaru can act as temporary arcane eyes.
In the past, communication between Haggiris could only rely on contact with each other, or at least staying within a very close distance, so that the consciousnesses of Haggiris could communicate.
But since the rise of someone's forum, programming languages entered the mysterious world, and Khan came into contact with first-hand information from someone's consciousness, the communication methods of Haikiri people have certainly been updated.
The most obvious point is the communication distance. It's like originally you could only use Bluetooth for matching. Once the module is changed, you can directly connect to the satellite remotely.
Therefore, the scattered Haikiri can not only monitor the environment as arcane eyes, but also transmit the detection content back to the Khan in real time for integration. The most important thing is that multiple box cuts can be directly used for triangulation, which improves space monitoring capabilities by more than a small amount.
The purpose of finding Fen is not only to serve as the second thug at critical moments, but also to become the second detection center in the early stage. The original spherical detection range centered on Lin became a spindle-shaped range.
If it is farther away and becomes a barbell shape, there will be a detection blind spot. Therefore, although the two of them flashed forward alternately in the air, they still maintained a certain distance. Coupled with the scattered Shakiri sword pills, the furthest distance under surveillance was a hundred kilometers away.
If such a distance were placed on the ground, it would be unimaginably far. But once moved into the air, a hundred kilometers seems to be within reach, and the range that can be seen is farther than a hundred kilometers.
But no matter which one they are, they can provide the most basic computing power. Coupled with the presence of Lin and Fen, who are equivalent to human calculators, the detection range is also much larger than last time. This time, the speed of tracking the Void Dragon's footprints was much faster than the previous time.
And the more participants there are, the more directions they can focus on at the same time. Although every additional focus may distract some computing power. But in the current situation of redundant computing power, doing this kind of thing does not delay the business.
Fortunately, Lin agreed to broaden the scope of the box cutters' attention, and they really returned some data that they had not noticed before.
To put it simply, it is the phenomenon of diffraction. The phenomenon of diffraction is a major characteristic of waves.
Fluctuating creatures! This was an idea that suddenly flashed through someone's mind, an idea that was extremely inconsistent with their common sense.
Back home, any theory without sufficient evidence was regarded as false. Therefore, the world is material, scientific, and rational. There are no ghosts, no gods, and no existence that is invisible and unfathomable.
The saying that there is a god when one raises one's head is just a matter of belief in people's hearts. And faith is both reliable and unreliable. How do those fraudsters succeed? They rely on the same method as preaching to brainwash people into stupidity.
But in Lost Land, there are ghosts, gods, demons, and all kinds of unreasonable things. The source of these strange things is usually not native to Midi, but comes from a higher-dimensional world.
This kind of 'common sense' has also formed a habit for someone. Whenever you see something you don't understand, just go to higher dimensions and you'll be lucky enough to find a match.
But this time it was a slap in the face. If you want to explain the situation in front of you, you have to look in reverse.
Volatility is also one of the characteristics of the low-dimensional world where high-dimensional creatures exist. However, behind the waveform observed this time, there is no complex mathematical model involving dimensional parameters. The complication lies in the other directions.
When something has the characteristics of a wave, and the wave is strong enough to interfere with real matter, it will behave like the 'suspected creature' in front of you. It's like turning the subwoofer to its maximum volume and shaking the house so much that pebbles are falling.
At the beginning, Lin was still thinking about the quantum field, but he was not familiar with it. Although there is a means of observation with the help of Haggiri, it is not comprehensive after all.
At least it is not sure whether there is another self-contained world and creatures in that field, and how the creatures there should behave. Is it related to the phenomenon I am observing now?
But no quantum is big enough to crush people to death.
But now that you have caught the opponent's tail, there is no reason to give up tracking. After thinking about the 'direction' to move forward, Lin launched the Flash Technique towards the 'world' he had never seen before!
When your eyes become familiar with the new world, what you see is a... beautiful picture?
This scroll is huge, colorful, and changing. And I am also the person in the painting, in the painting, but looking at the painting.
This feeling is very strange, even a little nauseating.
If you break into a high-dimensional world as a low-dimensional creature, you will easily be overwhelmed by the extra information from the outside world. In the past, you had to reduce the dimensionality of the information before you could understand it.
However, I have also undergone several upgrades, and this situation has also improved. There is no need to use dimensionality reduction to delete and modify information obtained from the outside world, and one can now understand things in the high-dimensional world.
However, this is the first time that he has forcibly reduced his dimensionality and entered a world with a lower dimension than the Lost Land.
