Void Worms are not part of the Void, they are just individual individuals who are associated with the Void and are interfered with by the Void's will.

For Rhodes, this is an extremely important conclusion.

A great man once told us that "the question of who is our enemy and who is our friend is the first question of the revolution" – and in the face of the void, Rhodes also faced this question anew.

There is no doubt that the Void, which is eternally hungry, eternally eager to devour, and perpetually infects and controls others with its own will, is Rhodes' enemy.

And the Void Worm under the control of the Void, if it gets rid of the control of the Void, can it become friends?

The answer is "not necessarily", as Rhodes lacks specific research - but what is certain is that these Void Worms, after being freed from the Void's control, are not enemies.

That's enough.

Perhaps those predators, megastomps, and other Void Worms would be hostile to Rhodes because of their hunting instincts even if they were out of the Void's will, but if these working Void Worms were out of the Void's will, they would turn from hostile creatures to neutral creatures.

And these neutral creatures are easy targets for Rhodes to exploit.

Even if Rhodes doesn't know how to spell a spell - look, now the little guy named Shovel is finally free.

After a difficult attempt, Shovel "learned" to crawl like a newborn Void Worm.

Now that the will of the void had been banished, the Shovel was visibly confused, and it spun in circles, poking around with its chitin-like horns on its head—it didn't know what it was supposed to do.

It can be seen that the Void's control over these Zerg has lasted for a long time, and after getting rid of the Void's control, the Shovel has lost its own meaning of worm life and is at a loss.

Instinctively, the Shovel still seems to want to work, but after many generations of degradation, the Shovel's receptors are close to nothing - the Zerg under the control of the Void don't need to feel, the Void can control everything.

But life is magical.

Workers and insects mainly act collectively, and after the number reaches a certain level, there will be a collective consciousness, so driven by instinct, the shovel began to look for its own partners.

Shovel soon spotted them - but embarrassingly, its friends did not shake off the will of the void, and they did not react to Shovel's communication.

Faced with a robot-like companion, Shovel began to experiment, and these attempts had a great impact on the operation of the entire city.

Seeing the rescued Shovel begin his own wayfinding journey, Rhodes freed several workers again.

Under the influence of the sands of time, these bugs who were originally working tried it, and soon entered the ranks of "finding companions".

These bugs, who are very familiar with the urban environment, have brought serious chaos to this underground city because of their companions, and under the cover of this chaos, Rod and Nunu finally touch the core of the city.

……………………

"Why are you putting so much effort into it?" Seeing that Rhodes had liberated hundreds of Void Worms, Nunu was confused, "Even if these bugs can help you, they won't be of much help, not to mention that they are at most creating a little trouble, and they have nothing to do with the overall situation!" ”

"I didn't expect them to have much of an impact." Rod grinned nonchalantly, "I knew from the beginning that these bugs had no fighting power and couldn't stand on our side. ”

"Then you still ......"

"We need a little cover." Rodla gave Nunu a hand, and the two of them bent down into a tunnel, "No matter how cautious we are, there will always be some traces on the results, right?" ”

Nunu looked at the mark under his feet and nodded.

The city is made up of a wax-like substance, and although Rhodes and Nunu are light-hearted, they can't be untouched.

"So, do you know how perceptive the Void is?"

Void perception?

Nunu had obviously not heard of the concept, he thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I don't know......"

"I can tell you that the Void's perception is terrible."

Seeing that Nunu didn't understand the reason at all, Rod simply told him everything.

"The Void is always hungry and devouring everything, and until it finishes devouring, it is 'ignorant', so strictly speaking, the way the Void is perceived is 'eat it and then speak'."

"But at the level of will, any of our desires and greed will resonate with the void, and the void can discover our existence in this way, but unfortunately now you and I are in a state where desire is severely suppressed, so the void has not yet discovered us."

Hearing this from Rod, Nunu nodded—"That's why you told me not to think cranky and focus!" ”

"That's right." Rhodes had a teachable expression on his face, "And apart from the perception of the spiritual will, it is difficult for the Void to discover its enemies—even those who are controlled by the Void, what they see and hear may not be acceptable to the Void. ”

"Why is that?"

"Because sending and receiving are two different concepts, for example, I can make a plan and write down all the things that everyone should do as little notes and hand them out, so that you can do what I ask, but I can't be reported by all of you at the same time - although the Void is much stronger than me, he doesn't want to control one or two goals, so...... Unless the Void wants to blow itself up, He will never accept the messages of all infected at the same time. ”

“…… You have a lot of point, but that's just speculation! ”

"If you want proof - the Void can really accept news from any infected person, then what else do you need the watchers to do!"

Monitor...... Eye!

At this moment, Nunu suddenly realized!

"After I blew up that big guy's eyes, the Void no longer knows where we are and what we are doing, and after entering here, I liberated those bugs, they will become our best cover, because they are the destroyers of the order of this city, the information that the Void can receive is that the order is destroyed, and some of the working bugs are out of control, and we can take this opportunity to hide from the world!"

As they spoke, Rod and Nunu had already walked a long way along the tunnel, and as they went deeper, the walls of the tunnel gradually became wet.

"Last question, why are you here?"

"Because the bugs that come here are carrying something that is obviously more like a finished product."
