Chapter 1862 The Simple Past

This creature...has been here since a long time ago.

Although they don't know how they were born in the first place, it is written in their earliest historical records...

Creatures like Jili have been living in an object floating in the void since the beginning.

The object is a rock-like object that, although exposed to the void, is warm and airy on the inside.

The first aggregates grew up from here. This small specialized species fed on the... microorganisms that grew with them in the cave.

This ‘original state’ lived for a long time.

Because this rock is rich in... nutrients, they have been using the nutrients in it to grow.

This lasted for who knows how long until at some point something changed in them.

Creatures such as Jili are originally divided into many groups. The number of each group is tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. The groups are hostile to each other. There are many Jili groups in the entire area. They have always been in a state of competition with each other.

But at some point, these aggregates suddenly changed... the way of life.

They are united, the groups are no longer hostile to each other, they are united for unknown reasons.

Although the reason is not known, this can be called the biggest event in the history of organisms like Jili... Because they are united together, they share signals with each other, which is also the reason why their intelligence increases.

A single aggregate can be regarded as a brain cell. When they are gathered together, intelligence will become higher.

The original group was not large enough, so it did not have enough intelligence.

When they gather into a large enough group, they will have the intelligence to realize their situation...and start to think and observe everything around them...

They also begin to think that they can do many things, not just live here.

It seems that from here on, they have a real recorded history.

In fact, they have always had the ability to record history, that is, a group will pass its memory to the next group.

However, they had been transmitting this memory unconsciously before, and after gaining sufficient intelligence, they began... to transmit this memory consciously.

Next, Jili began the same process they go through as many intelligent creatures, which is...exploration and learning.

They quickly explored the entire rocky area where they lived. This area was very large, but there didn't seem to be many interesting things.

Of course, fun is only for Lin. For them, everything is interesting.

However, this only lasted for a while, because the exploration soon ended and they explored the entire area of ​​​​the void rock.

Ji Li, who has been to all places, found that apart from them, there are only microorganisms living here.

Because there are still many resources in the stone, these microbial populations are very rich, and the aggregates can live on them for a long time.

However, Jili does not simply live here. They are always looking for ways to leave.

The first was to find a way to reach the airless rock surface. In order to move around in the void environment, they tried various methods.

Jili thought of using various things to isolate themselves from the void, so they finally created the first set of armor.

The initial armor only extended the time they were exposed to the void, but once we have this direction, we can continue to research in this area.

Eventually, their manufacturing technology became better and better, and they were finally able to explore rock surfaces for a longer period of time.

But after exploring, they found nothing on the rock surface and were a little disappointed.

But they soon started looking for new places to escape.

This time, Jili focused their attention on the distant starry sky.

They don't know what the flickering light in the distance is, so they want to go and have a look.

Next, they have been working hard in this direction.

A long, long time passed after that.

The structure of the aggregates themselves has not changed much. To be precise, they have not evolved, but they have become more and more powerful in technology.

They continue to enhance their... manufacturing technology.

There has been no war or major events. Jili has always been in a state of peace. Their only motivation for development is... to want to go to places they have never been before.

But just like that, they slowly developed, they put together more and more complex things, and finally...here we are now.

They built a complex and huge 'rectangular fort'. The rectangular fort itself can be said to be a huge city or a battleship. There are densely packed tiny tunnels in the entire rectangular fort, and there are countless sets of... The grains are moving.

The rectangular castle itself can also move at will. It can be said that they have completely developed into... creatures that can move in the void.

However, there is something strange here, because there are not many resources in the original stones. How they developed like this, and how normal air and temperature are maintained in the stones are a mystery...

Jili did not record everything completely because their history was too long. From a certain point on, they discovered that too large a memory in their consciousness would bring a burden to the brain, so they recorded the history in their memory. The method was changed to... recorded elsewhere.

The way the Ji particles record their history outside the body is to input their brain signals into a special 'stone' and store them.

This kind of storage effect is not very good, because the signals stored inside will change after a long time, resulting in... information inside being incomplete.

But Jili doesn't pay much attention to this history. They store important information such as technical knowledge directly in their brains, and rarely manage this historical information after they are stored in "stones".

In the end, there were a lot of blurry parts in the middle.

Perhaps the obscure part is their connection... to Midgard.

Also, they produced quite a lot of weapons. There should have been some war or something like that, but Jili couldn't remember such a thing.

There are still a lot of strange things here.

But... in any case, if this race with many mysteries does not get any help, their rectangular fortress may completely disappear into the void...

The satellite is already quite close, only tens of kilometers away. It is like a huge fireball that is about to get close... Its heat can already be felt on the ground...
