Chapter 629 Memory
??
'Wanderer'.
It has always called itself that.
I don't know since when, it has lived in this place, this place with countless floating rocks.
Its first memory started from a certain rock.
This rock is not very big, its diameter is about one kilometer, the surface is smooth, and there is nothing special.
Why is it here? Why is there no memory from before coming here? Because it has a lot of intelligence, it knows how to think about all kinds of things.
But it also understands something that doesn't require intelligence...as a creature, it has to live.
Living here is not easy
It wears armor that protects its body, which makes it immune to most environmental damage in the void, and it doesn't know how the armor came from.
But it knows that there are some functions on this armor.
For example, it can control some mechanical limbs on the armor to move, which also allows it to grasp the ground and not accidentally float into the void.
But the first thing it does... is to find food, and it looks like there is absolutely no food on this floating rock, but it can use this armor.
Its armor cannot be opened, that is, its body cannot be directly exposed to the external environment.
However, it is not incapable of eating. It finds that it can make its armor stick to the ground. As long as it waits slowly, the "hunger" in its thoughts will disappear.
It considers this method to be the way to get food, so it uses a similar method to get food after that.
However, it also found that food is not available everywhere. Some places have it, others don't, and it pays special attention to those places where it can find food, and quickly discerns how these are different from others.
Those places where food can be obtained, the composition of the rock is not the same, so it specifically looks for these places.
Because food in one place can be eaten for a long time,
And this rock is one kilometer in size, and there is a lot of food on it, just lying on the ground is enough...
So it lived a carefree and boring life...
This life went on for a long time. In addition to eating at this stage, it is watching the distance, watching the floating rock.
Even with the light of the stars as an aid. It can only see that other floating rocks are large and dark objects, which seem to be full of danger, and a strong sense of crisis makes it dare not leave their own floating rocks.
However, after the time passed, it decided to leave here, because curiosity slowly overshadowed the sense of crisis. It decided to travel to the nearest floating rock.
That rock is a thousand kilometers away. But it's not difficult to think about the past.
As long as you jump hard on the ground, it will slowly float to the target. Unless you hit something along the way.
It didn't hit anything, though. Its first Void journey, very safe and very smooth...
Floating for a while in the dark space. It came to the target it had thought of, on top of another floating rock.
This pumice rock was completely different from the one it had been in before, it was much larger, and there were countless objects of various shapes towering over the rock's surface.
These things, it knows, are things that can be called buildings.
It controlled the armor's mechanical arm to climb forward, and decided to start a new adventure here.
So it went into one of the nearest buildings.
This building is like a tall tower. The height of hundreds of meters makes it extra conspicuous on this dark rock surface. Under the brilliance of the stars, the creatures wearing armor slowly climbed up the tower wall.
For some reason, it thought it should climb to the top of the tower to see if there might be something there.
The top of the tower is a disc-shaped structure with a diameter of more than 50 meters. The outer surface is covered with metal, and there are many entrances like windows that allow it to drill into it.
After it entered the top of the tower, it was found scattered with various things, including a large number of metal parts, as well as an unfinished aircraft that was only half, and some machinery.
It's an incredible feeling to look at these things.
It's not that these things make it weird, it's that it finds that when it sees these things, it thinks that these things are quite... normal, ordinary, nothing special.
It is obviously the first time to leave the former floating rock, the first time to come here, the first time to see so many new things.
But these things seem to be things that have long been used to... It feels incredible about this feeling of itself.
That didn't stop it from continuing its investigation, though.
It tried to fiddle with the machinery on the ground, and it found that some things could be activated, and among the activated machinery, there appeared 'text' that it could understand.
These texts describe the situation about these buildings on this rocky land.
These buildings are built by a group of creatures, and their affairs are described here... These creatures come from quite far away, and before coming here, these creatures have been drifting in the void...
At that time, they had been longing for a safe place to live, and now, they finally found it.
However, they soon discovered that this place is not a safe place to live, and there are many dangerous things here.
Later, these creatures were destroyed, leaving only a large number of ruins on this floating rock... Telling the sad history.
...
It saw these materials, and it finally felt some strange feeling, and it had some interest in how these creatures were destroyed, although it did not know what these creatures meant by saying that they came from the void outside.
Later, it left the tower and wandered around the ruins, where it also found the food that could sustain its life.
Slowly, it walked through every corner of this floating rock and looked at every building. It found that the group of creatures that originally lived here have encountered many things, and they may have been attacked by what or what. bombed.
However, it did not find a specific reason for the destruction of these creatures.
It then left the floating rock and flew elsewhere to continue its journey.
On the next block of rock, it encountered other 'wild creatures' living on the floating rock. These creatures had different personalities, some ignored it at all, and some regarded it as a target that should be killed.
But it also found that... the armor has some stealth features to avoid those dangerous creatures, so it survived the attacks of various creatures.
During this journey, it encountered many crises, one time it was almost killed and its armor was damaged.
It was originally intended to fall asleep waiting to die, but when it woke up, it found that the armor was repaired, and there were some new functions...
It was very curious about this situation, and later found out that it seems that its armor has a kind of automatic repair function, and it can also detect previous weaknesses and become better than before.
After discovering this ability, it is still going on with the things it did before... Continuing its journey.
Later, it went to a lot of floating rocks, encountered a lot of things, and saw a lot of things.
The life here makes it grow slowly...
And at some point, its journey brought it to a special place.
That is, the 'edge' of these floating rocks.
Unconsciously, it traveled to the outermost floating rock, and saw the endless void beyond the floating rock.
It's... shocked.
Originally, it believed that the world was made up of countless floating rocks, and these floating rocks would stretch on and on, with no end at all.
But unexpectedly, it has reached... the edge.
This is enough to subvert its imagination and cognition of the world. In a huge shock, it found that something appeared in the void outside.
This thing looked like a very large rock, maybe ten kilometers in diameter. The rock flew slowly in front of its eyes and hit another floating rock of similar size near it.
The two boulders were destroyed in the collision. This phenomenon made it extremely frightening. It immediately left the edge area and returned to the depths filled with floating rocks.
It found that it seemed to be full of fear of the void outside, and it did not want to see that place again.
So, it continued its journey between the floating rocks.
During this trip, it found a group of creatures that could communicate with it, and this group of creatures lived very close to the edge.
It found that these creatures came from the void outside, just like the group of destruction it saw last time.
However, this group of creatures is still alive, although they are also on the verge of destruction, because of lack of resources and other reasons, their life is very difficult...
It found that these creatures seemed to have a much higher demand for resources than it did, be it things or food.
It communicated deeply with these creatures and learned about their civilization and history, but it did not stay there for long, and it soon traveled elsewhere.
During the journey, it encounters other creatures from the Void, all of which seem to be in difficulty, however, it also notices that if these creatures are united, they may be able to get through it together .
So it tried to get two different groups of creatures to touch each other and get them to cooperate.
However, it did not care how those creatures cooperated, but continued to travel to other places...
Until, it encountered something... that thing seemed to come from the void outside. (To be continued. (LX.))
