Chapter 451: Mirror Remains
"The sky is so beautiful."
The giant bird soared in the sky, and the thin clouds passed by brushing against its feathers.
The sunlight penetrated the tightly closed fragment cage, reflecting the light of freedom.
"I wonder if they can see it."
The giant bird was not lost in the world in front of it.
"There are countless companions waiting for us to save them."
The reason why they can see the sunlight in the clouds is because of the selfless dedication of their companions.
The Outer Gods sacrificed their lives to take them away from the fragments, and their companions sacrificed their freedom to send them to the sky.
"There are more important things to do."
Transcendence has no end.
The giant bird looked deeply at the shining Sea of Creation and flew slowly into the distance...
The sea is very broad. While they are getting to know this world, they are looking for ways to let all their companions transcend.
In this process, they also slowly understand the reason for the birth of their own race:
The mirror of the Sea of Creation is active, and all the fragments have been simulated. Although they can no longer remain intact, they can still play their original role.
Therefore, each small fragment will simulate a small world.
However, due to the lack of control from the Sea of Creation, these small worlds will show their original mirror appearance, and the shape of the world is completely based on the shape of the fragments, which is monotonous and boring.
And their race is the various creatures that remain in the complete simulated world.
They could have been any race, and as the complete world became fragmented, they became the only creatures in the fragmented world.
It is precisely because of this that they have some knowledge that they don't know where it came from.
The functions of this simulated "wreckage" are incomplete, and their knowledge is also fragmented.
During the journey, they also found a way to repair this "incompleteness".
That is to inject "color" into the fragments.
When there is color, those glass-like companions will return to their original appearance and begin to recover their past memories.
The mirror world will also become less monotonous because of the color, and these world wreckages will show their original appearance according to the color.
Although this still cannot save the trapped companions, it can at least make their lives more interesting.
The knowledge after repair can also help them explore this world.
In this way, the originally transparent and monotonous glass fragments became colorful.
However, even though they have recovered a lot of knowledge, they still haven't found a way to completely transcend.
However, all the knowledge points to the same method - making a wish to the Sea of Creation.
"Create a god to achieve their goals."
So, after going around in circles, they returned to the Sea of Creation, the place where they were born...
...
After listening to the memories of the building block bird, Li Luo didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
She looked at the tall mountain of fragments, thinking.
Gently touching the smooth building blocks, Li Luo asked carefully: "Are there any of your companions here?"
"Of course."
The building blocks don't feel like glass, but very rough.
"They don't feel like glass, they feel like wood." Li Luo expressed his doubts.
"Glass is too brittle. We used relics to change the material of the fragments, so that they can be better deformed and combined, and can also reduce wear." The building block bird explained.
"Will this not affect the companions inside?"
"Of course not. Those fragmented worlds are simulated, not real, but attached to the fragments. I told you before that the mirror of the Sea of Creation is like a display screen, and these fragments are like light-emitting pixel tubes. The world is just a false display."
Listening to the explanation of the building block bird, Li Luo nodded.
"So, you inject "color" just to make the light-emitting pixel tubes light up again, similar to turning them on?"
"It's a very appropriate statement." The building block bird praised.
Although Li Luo couldn't understand their practice, she could roughly guess the principle.
What she didn't understand was how the outer gods made the pictures in the "TV" become real.
But she wouldn't dwell on it. She was more concerned about the connection between the blocks and them.
"Are you sure that the iron block is the sacred object of your race?"
"Of course, there is nothing more suitable than it." The building block bird answered without hesitation: "That is true transcendence."
When it comes to the block, the head stretched out excitedly again.
"Human! You don't have to question our understanding of transcendence!"
"But why are you so sure?" Li Luo still didn't understand.
The head saw that Li Luo was still asking questions, and stretched out two skinny arms, scratching his ears and cheeks.
"I don't know how to explain it to you. It's just a feeling, just like you see blue and red, you can tell them apart without thinking."
"When you humans go to the temple to worship gods, you only worship the statues of gods, not the thresholds at the temple entrance. Why is that?"
Li Luo thought for a while and replied: "Because we know the specific image of the gods, and we also know that the statues of gods are statues of gods, and the thresholds are thresholds. We have our own independent judgments on these concepts."
"We also have such judgments on transcendence. Whether it is transcendence or not, we can tell at a glance, but if you insist on asking why, it's like asking us to explain why the 'threshold' is the 'threshold'. We really can't explain it."
The skinny head spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Transcendence is very special and cannot be replaced. Our feeling is not wrong! The statue is the statue, the threshold is the threshold, and transcendence is transcendence. No one can change it!"
The head became more and more excited as he spoke, swaying on the back of the building block bird.
Seeing this, the building block bird quickly pulled it back and stuffed it into the building blocks.
After listening to the head's explanation, Li Luo had nothing to say.
She could only overlook the canyon full of fragments, and her thoughts flew far away.
The fragments on the ground were glittering, and Li Luo seemed to see some small square fragments in them, but when she looked closely, she found that it was just an illusion, and they were just some fragments that looked very similar.
When she stared at a certain place, her peripheral vision seemed to glimpse some square fragments.
When her eyes turned to that side, the fragments she had just seen disappeared again.
Li Luo rubbed her eyes in confusion and looked into the distance.
The outline of the canyon composed of the fragmented mountains was like a regular square.
The pile of debris on the ground just happened to form a square.
The trajectory of the building block bird's circling was also a square.
"What's going on?"
Li Luo closed her eyes and shook her head.
A gentle breeze blew, and she felt that the wind was like a smooth cut surface, like the flat surface of a block.
She opened her eyes instantly and looked around in surprise.
However, everything in front of her suddenly became a little blurry. Li Luo had been in this canyon for a while on the building block bird, but suddenly felt that the canyon had become strange.
But it was also familiar.
"Iron block?" She suddenly felt that the block seemed to be behind her, but when she turned her head, she couldn't see anything.
It was not here, but it seemed to be everywhere, and the shadow of the block was everywhere.
Some vague outlines flashed in Li Luo's peripheral vision. She subconsciously felt that the block was still there, but suddenly realized the fact that it was not there.
This contradictory feeling made Li Luo frown.
She looked at the sky in the distance in confusion.
There seemed to be a strange gaze staring at her.
