4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

These investigators seem to be sleeping here.

Lin let a lot of miniature arms ... drill in the ground of the tumbler.

Although the surface of this tumbler has only a very thin layer, these investigators stored in this thin layer.

Lynn found that they were in a dispersed state during the inspection process.

They are dispersed in the ground in the form of fine particles, and after being stimulated ... they will gather and become like fossils from the surface.

The stimulus they start should be related to phantom creatures.

Under normal circumstances, phantom creatures cannot pass through the place blocked by them.

But if it is passed like a doppelganger, then these investigators will start and chase the illusionary creature that escaped.

Lynn thinks this may be the system they set up a long time ago, but she still doesn't know the reason why Shalin disappeared.

Also, the sculptures on the surface of the tumbler are gone.

Why is all this?

Because she wanted to know enough about this place, Lin launched a more detailed study in this place.

That is to establish a base here, manufacture a large number of arms to detect the entire tumbler, and understand the whole situation of this place.

In the process, Lin did not suffer any attacks.

Those investigators will only start because of the escape of the illusion, and besides Lin no matter how they decompose them, there is no special response.

Then Lin slowly ... filled the tumbler with the miniature arms created.

Lin carefully investigated the inside and outside of the tumbler. During the research, Lin found that this place was quite complicated.

Most of the entire tumbler area is composed of extremely thin layers of hundreds of meters to several kilometers. There are many things like stones floating inside, which are all relatively common materials in the void.

Lin found that there are actually many living groups in the rock group floating in the tumbler.

These creatures ... can also be regarded as civilization.

They are actually a kind of creature, but they are divided into many different groups, and each different group occupies a different position.

It can also be said that each group of them forms a different tribe.

These creatures are very small, all under a millimeter, and a floating stone is the territory for them.

And they have been waging war all the time. They have produced various small war weapons that conform to their shape, and various conflicts continue to occur.

The reason for the war is usually to compete for some stones with high resource content.

In these war biota, Lin discovered a special creature.

They never participated in any conflicts, just watched other tribes, when the war evolved too violently ... they would go out and stop.

But the main task of this group of creatures is to maintain the stability of this tumbler.

In fact, they are protecting some important things here, such as gravitational stabilization devices.

This device is similar to the gravitational organ of a bus, mainly to maintain the stability of this hollow tumbler.

At the same time, there are some other strange devices. Lin hasn't found any use of these devices, which may be related to illusions.

So after watching them for a while, Lin tried to communicate with them.

Although they were extremely xenophobic, Lynn slowly worked out ways to test their thinking.

Lynn found that these creatures knew nothing about investigators, but they knew very well about illusions.

These creatures know that the illusion comes from another void.

But they have a strange understanding, that is, they think that the void is leaking.

If it keeps leaking, the void will be destroyed, of course, it will also be affected here, and at least this tumbler may be completely destroyed.

Their task is to block this leak and maintain the stability of the void.

This group of creatures call themselves 'gatekeepers' and they have been protecting here for quite a long time.

But because it is too long, many individuals between them think that such a long-term task does not seem to make much sense, and think that what the void reveals is nothing but a legend.

So their groups began to split, and the split groups formed various tribes.

However, there are still a group of 'gatekeepers' who have always insisted on their original mission. They have never given up to guard the leak of the void.

So this is the scene where the divided tribes fight with each other, while the persevering groups guard the important things.

The wonderful thing is that they do n’t know how long they have insisted on the task of guarding the leak of the void ... and they do n’t know about the investigator.

So, Lin continued to observe them for a while.

After observing the day and night time of this group of 'gatekeepers' for almost ten pompoms, Lynn found something wonderful.

Lynn found that there was ... alien creatures between them.

To be precise, it is Sharin's alien creature.

The different realms in various works of Ershimin that Shalin had traveled to before, and the creatures in those different realms appeared in these ... 'gatekeeper' groups.

Outsiders are also as small as gatekeepers, only one millimeter in size, but their shape is exactly the same as those outsiders in Ershimin's works.

However, their basic structure is the same as the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper is a micro-mechanical creature, and these outsiders are also.

Only this is the same. Just as there is a big difference between cell creatures and cell creatures, there is also a big difference between gatekeepers and outsiders.

Even more bizarrely, the gatekeepers did not respond to their appearance.

The gatekeeper seems to ... default the appearance of these outsiders.

And outsider creatures themselves are normally integrated into the gatekeepers. They participate in the war between the gatekeepers and do the same thing.

Then, Lin found that the number of gatekeepers became less and less, and was eventually replaced by outsiders.

Because the reproduction of the gatekeeper itself is not carried out between individuals, but a new generation is created by a relatively large breeding device.

Outsider creatures, as they originally were, can reproduce among individuals, and the reproduction speed is very fast.

As for where the original outsider came out, Lin did not find it.

When they are found in some tribes, they are already a lot.

Then ... slowly getting more and more, but the gatekeepers are getting fewer and fewer.

In the end these outsiders completely replaced the gatekeeper.

In the days and nights of dozens of pom-poms, Lin discovered that the gatekeeper was completely ... extinct.

At least I didn't see them on this tumbler.
