Chapter 3204 Changes

When the 'lumps of meat' were discovered, the octopus was very scared of them.

They thought this thing might have the power to decompose everything around it, spreading like a plague.

And the piece of meat, somehow... infected the brains of these non-octopus researchers.

In other words, they received the thought information of the non-octopus researchers.

So these pieces of meat began to devour and decompose the surrounding matter as they expected, and spread rapidly.

As for the original researchers, of course none of them survived.

The earliest pieces of meat had no habit of retaining their brains.

Later, other octopuses developed the destroyed research aircraft and the spreading flesh, and a long war began.

The chunks of meat cannot be completely destroyed, but at the same time they are not that destructive.

The pieces of meat initially spread in the void in a virus-like form... They drifted in the void in the form of many small pieces of meat, and once these small pieces of meat came into contact with any suitable objects, such as aircraft.

They will erode and infect these things, and then create a lot of small pieces of flesh.

The octopus can always find and blast away the infected areas of the meat.

But the meat pieces also often infect various aircraft that are not octopus.

Of course, these pieces of meat also affected some other intelligent creatures, and the pieces of meat became their public enemy number one.

They all agreed that this piece of meat was a plague from the void, and some creatures thought it might be a weapon used by leaf-cutter ants to attack them.

But no one expected that they were all made of meat...

However, the main reason why the pieces of meat did not completely destroy these creatures was because they would change according to the creatures' thoughts.

At some point, some creatures were decomposed into pieces of flesh, but their brains were preserved.

It may be because of some strong desire to survive in their minds... At present, Lin is not very clear about how to judge these pieces of meat.

Obviously, they will not change completely according to all the ideas of the creatures, but only according to certain ideas of certain creatures.

As for what criteria the piece of meat uses to decide which thoughts to act on, that is still unknown.

In short, the brains of some creatures... therefore survived and were not decomposed by the flesh.

The brains of these creatures live inside the pieces of flesh, and they are initially unable to see anything, after all, they have no senses.

Because of their strong thinking, the pieces of meat gave them senses, allowing them to perceive the external environment.

These creatures also discovered that... the pieces of meat were constantly eroding and attacking other creatures.

Seeing this situation, the brains were extremely frightened and also... sympathetic.

The brain felt very miserable as it watched the infected organisms slowly decompose.

And because of their thoughts, the erosion process of the meat slowly became... much gentler.

Although they will still corrode the aircraft and organisms they encounter, the process of decomposing the organisms has gradually become a painless process.

The brain feels... strange about this.

They slowly noticed that these pieces of meat seemed to make some changes according to their thoughts.

However, the brain is unable to stop the infection of the meat directly.

However, they found that they could slowly change the 'properties' of the meat.

For example, they hope that if the meat blocks stop attacking other creatures, the meat blocks will slow down their attacks. They believe that as long as they continue to influence them, one day the meat blocks may stop attacking completely.

However, what these brains didn't realize was that they themselves were also affected.

At first they didn't want to attack the pieces of meat, mainly because the creatures being attacked were their own... kind.

It's normal for an octopus's brain to not want a piece of meat to attack the octopus.

But gradually, they no longer feel that each other is their own kind.

Their thinking slowly changed, and they felt that they and each other were not the same kind of creatures at all.

These brains soon developed the feeling that it didn’t matter whether the other party died or not.

Under the influence of this feeling, they no longer tried to maintain the idea of ​​not attacking.

At the same time, they had another idea.

They were very confused about themselves...or rather, they were also confused about the creature called 'Meat'.

They were thinking about all kinds of strange questions like... what exactly the piece of meat was, how big the void was, etc.

It seems that while they were imagining these things, they were also accessing some of the 'memories' stored inside the pieces of meat.

These are some scattered memories, mainly about the previous time when the meat blocks created the world, and various memories later.

Simply put, they are similar to the memories Lin is seeing now, but they are not as detailed.

They only know part of the story.

For example, there is something about the 'giant Ershi people'.

It’s just that because the information is not complete, these brains believe that the giant Ershi people created all this.

The intelligent creatures behind might have been created by the giant Ershi people...that’s what they thought.

At the same time, these brains...mixed up some information.

Because in the memories they read, it seemed that after the huge Ershi people transformed the environment, the Ershi civilization appeared.

In this information, they did not see any details, for example, they did not know that in the Ershi civilization...

In fact, there are no people.

They just saw some simple descriptions of the development of this civilization.

So these brains believed that this Ershi civilization... should be the "descendants" of the giant Ershi people.

They also discovered the reason for the "destruction" of the Ershi civilization.

In fact, they did not perish, but went somewhere deep in the void.

These brains... developed a deep yearning for the place where the 'Ershi people' were going.

They really wanted to go there and take a look.

The thoughts in these brains slowly influenced the piece of meat, causing it to start its journey to find the 'Ershi people'.

The chunks of meat then formed a huge...fleet.

This is mainly for sailing to that distant place.

At the same time, they also attack all living creatures on the road... because these brains want to take other creatures to that distant place as well.

It seems that it was because of this reason that the "fellow travelers" appeared.

These brains began to influence the pieces of meat to fly far into the void.

At first they remembered their purpose, but then they seemed to slowly... forget it.

To be precise, the first batch are brain dead, they still have a lifespan.

Some of the brains that joined later gradually began to forget the original purpose, or it was not recorded.

All that was recorded was the idea of ​​sailing farther and gathering more companions.
