Xin Yuan had a long dream.

In the dream, he turned into a seed, buried deep in the soil, quietly sprouting and growing upwards, instinctively catching the insects that were unlucky to burrow past him as his own food, and trying to go to the place above the dirt was his simple only consciousness.

One-year, two-year, ten-year ...... The time that has passed is impossible to count, but after a long, long time, he finally broke through the barrier of the soil layer and "saw" the world on the ground.

In his simple perception, it was a wonderful world of five streamers, full of beings emitting powerful energy waves, and surrounded by their own kind, they were interdependent, preying on each other, exchanging simple messages.

In this environment, he gradually grew, from a weak being who needed the support of his peers to not be eaten by predators, and gradually grew into the most powerful predator in the area, no matter how strong the creature reached his control area, it would only end up being devoured by him.

But one day, a being who had never seen before but was so powerful that he trembled came here, found him, and easily tore his vines and branches, uprooting him, and taking him all away.

The next consciousness was intermittent, and it seemed that he had been taken to a very strange place called the laboratory, where many of his kind, who were similar to the strong man but weaker, surrounded him, and used his body to do all kinds of experiments - the word experiment was only understood after he gradually learned the other party's language.

It was a long time, and his consciousness was in a rudimentary state, and he stayed in the lab in a daze, until the powerful being reappeared and buried some stone fragments inside him, and then something strange happened.

From the extra fragments of stone in his body, he absorbed an energy that he had never experienced before, and under the influence of this energy, he began to gradually change, and at some point he had a true sense of self-awareness, recognized his exact existence, learned to think, saw clearly the creatures who had been studying him, and began to learn what they had taught him in their cheers.

It was much later that he figured out that the splinter pieces that the strong man had placed inside him were the shattered parts of a mask, and that strong man's name was Payne.

As time passed, the researchers began to let go of his growth restrictions and deliberately promoted his growth, causing his growth to accelerate and become larger and larger, and those people began to build a new base with his body, more complex than a labyrinth, larger than a city.

And he is the central nucleus of this new base.

The years went on for a long time, and the people in the base changed one after another, but Payne also began to appear less and less, until he did not appear for nearly two hundred years, and then he suddenly realized that Payne might never appear again.

When he realized this, he had a longing to get out of here and be free—something that the researchers had taught him, and although he didn't quite understand what it really meant at the time, he knew that it was something very precious and very high, and that it had to be obtained anyway.

So he began to make a plan - thanks to the researchers who taught him knowledge, they made him understand the importance of knowledge and information, and he understood that the human mind is really a good thing, and that it is the true source of their strength, and maybe one day if he can eat enough people's minds, then he will become incomparably stronger, more powerful than Payne - this is what he thought at the time.

Because Payne had placed very strict restrictions on his body a long time ago, so he could not break through it so far, so he could only abandon his strong and huge body in the end, and enter the body of a person he seduced in the form of a spiritual existence, devouring the other party's consciousness, so as to manipulate the other party's body out of this cage. He then killed everyone in the base, eating all their thoughts-carrying souls before leaving the base and ending up on an island.

But it's a little different from what he thought, he did become very powerful, but his consciousness also began to be confused, and often a memory became blank, as if he had done something, and as if he hadn't done it, and sometimes he felt that he had become another being, all kinds of thoughts were chaotic and contradictory, completely unable to think normally, and often appeared on the island wandering unconsciously.

The situation is getting worse and worse, and he can only seize the only time left to wake up and start studying how to deal with it. The knowledge and materials he had studied for so many years came in handy, and although there were fewer and fewer worlds that could be used for research, his research progressed at a rapid pace, and he found a solution to the problem in front of him, bypassing the existing constraints and reintegrating with his body. But at this moment, he himself finally reached the limit, and before he could return to the base, he fell into a dream that seemed to never end, and began an endless sleep.

Until one day, he was awakened again by a man named Parion......

In the cabin, Xin Yuan suddenly shuddered, opened his eyes, and came to his senses.

"Come to think of it, I'm Xin Yuan, and I'm fighting Parleon in my consciousness......" He looked left and right, looking down at his hands, "...... It seems to have been won. ”

The life in the dream flashed in his mind as if he had experienced it in real life, and for a while, Xin Yuan had a strange feeling that Huang Liang was a dream.

It's as if everything in reality is covered with a layer of gray that needs to be re-caressed to see the truth.

He quietly sorted out his memories, pieced together the scattered memories bit by bit, and gradually recalled all the processes.

"Well, I won Parleon, and his consciousness was burned by the fire of life...... My own consciousness was also assimilated by the fire of life, and I would have died a little later...... However, the rune stone played a role, dominating the altar structure, extracting the fragments of my consciousness from the fire of life, reshaping it into a complete consciousness, and then extracting the energy of the fire of life to feed back to the almost shell that had been burned by the angel dust, and because Palyon's spiritual energy was integrated into the fire of life, it was absorbed by the rune stone, forming a third rune flourishing ......"

Xin Yuan touched his chin, and the touch of his skin touching the short fluffy whiskers immediately fed back to the nervous system, which was true.

"I think about my luck this time." He summed it up with emotion.

He got up and was about to stand up, when he suddenly remembered: "By the way, I was burned by the angel dust and almost left a skin, will there be any problem with reshaping my body?" Also, the Scarlet Hunter's external structure mode has been completely finished, and the rune patterns on the body surface have also been eroded by Palyon's energy, so will the repair restore the Scarlet Hunter structure? Or is it back to when everything goes blank? ”

He immediately lowered his head to examine his body.

After half a ring, he raised his head with a strange expression.
