Because the existing Heroes have lost their complete memory of this history, even if Lin Yi dissects them, all he gets is gratitude and admiration for the Golden Clan, and he can't get any useful information at all.
But from a more objective point of view, no one can possibly feel grateful to the individual who persecutes them, right?
Even if their actions represent "justice" in some sense.
The sixth clue.
Unlike the Silver Clan and the Bronze Clan, they, like the Iron Clan, value their home planet.
Like the first clue, this clue, though pointing in a certain direction, still had an unclear purpose, so Lin Yi could only selectively discard it.
After sorting through all the clues, Lin Yi turned his attention to the last and only piece of information that was not recorded in the "legend" but was remembered by the entire universe's civilization.
"...After doing all this, the Golden Race went to another universe."
Another universe.
From the perspective of a single coordinate system in the third dimension, the universe has no boundaries, therefore it is impossible for "another universe" to exist. In other words—
"Did you go to another world?"
Following the Time and Space Administration, this is the second being that is not a fragment holder but possesses the ability to travel between worlds. Moreover, unlike the Time and Space Administration, which relies on "magical technology" under the overall evolution to acquire this ability, the Golden Race should have achieved this through their own power, since, judging from the "legends," their numbers are definitely not high, and the resources of this single world could not possibly support such a large civilization.
The most interesting question is, what was their purpose in leaving this message?
Generally speaking, before leaving home, the owner will leave a message for whoever comes after them—whether it's a thief, a robber, or a servant—saying, "Am I leaving?" It's practically like inviting a wolf into the house.
If it wasn't a case of letting a wolf into the house, then there's only one possibility left.
"...Let me (the newcomer) go with you."
PS1: Enjoy your cultivation journey! Also, please consider giving me some donations and recommendations.
PS2: This volume is now complete.
Re:CREATORS: Chapter 491 The World of the "Creators" (Part 1)
Having just stepped into this world, one can already feel the omnipresent pressure around them. The already scarce information that constitutes this body is instantly compressed to a level almost that of an ordinary person.
"Compared to the last world, they are truly two extremes."
If the world of "Heroic Era" where the main body resides is one where the world's will completely ignores the existence of invaders, then this world adopts the completely opposite approach of suppressing them with all its might. Even if you do nothing but stand here, you feel like you are being consumed. If you really try to do something, it is estimated that a few seconds would be enough to achieve the achievement of "evaporation (physical)".
After finding no further clues about the Golden Clan in the "Heroic Era" world, Lin Yi began to locate the coordinates of the worlds they might be heading to. It was during this stage that he truly confirmed that the Golden Clan's purpose was to guide later generations into another world.
Compared to the vague records in the "Legends", the coordinate information left by the "Golden Clan" on their way to the other world was easily captured. Considering the potential dangers of this world, Lin Yi did not send his main body in directly, but instead allocated a small portion of the information. This is why Lin Yi was reduced to the level of an ordinary person when he entered this world.
and--
"The rules seem to be different?"
It's not that you might not be able to sense it when merging the fragments of "rules," but now you can notice this subtle difference.
Compared to active energy, there seems to be another kind of "power" in this world that leans towards consciousness, permeating the surroundings yet impossible to control...
"Perhaps certain conditions are required."
He didn't waste too much time on these uncontrollable "powers." With this information body constantly consuming resources, he really didn't have time to stay here. Compared to his own slow research, he believed that the system that this world itself possessed should be able to explain the source and composition of this "power" quite well.
Soon, Lin Yi's idea of "saving time" encountered a significant setback.
—A blank page.
There is no magic, no superpowers, no spiritual energy, no ubiquitous intelligent machines, and no evolved or mutated viral life forms... No, there should be, but they all exist in virtual novels and games.
In general, this world appears to be an ordinary world where people climb the technology tree, and there is nothing else besides that, making it a near-zero-activity world.
"This is really..."
Faced with this world that was as "clean" as a blank sheet of paper, Lin Yi was momentarily at a loss for how to react.
In comparison, discovering that this is also a parallel world to Earth, and subtly landing in the same country again, is hardly strange.
Although no relevant records could be found, it was impossible for Lin Yi to believe that this world was so "clean." After all, there was a considerable amount of activity currently roaming the city, and the "repulsion" exerted on this information entity at all times was something that a world with near-zero activity could not do. There were also "powers" from different systems.
"In other words, it's a 'world of a few' similar to the Type-Moon universe."
Looking at this modern metropolis that was bustling yet functioning in an orderly manner, Lin Yi made a decision: to create a big news story.
Admittedly, the information entity has countless ways to infiltrate that "world of a few," but the problem is that time simply doesn't allow it. Just existing in this space is consuming the body itself. If they really tried that, the body would probably be exhausted before the results even appeared. It would be better to go straight for it. Even if the information entity is consumed, as long as the results are achieved, it won't be a failure.
After deciding to create a big news story, Lin Yi began to think about the method and stance of this "big news story".
Considering the possibility of being targeted by those "minorities," Lin Yi did not intend to take a clear stance. After all, he did not know whether the "minorities" in this world belonged to the Order or Chaos faction. If he directly displayed a clear "order" or "chaos" attribute, he might be directly listed as a hostile target and eliminated. Given the current state of the information entity, there was no need to engage in such a meaningless battle.
"A major news story of a neutral nature..."
Searching for news that matched the "neutral" camp from limited information, Lin Yi soon realized that he had been taking things too lightly.
The big news about order and chaos is simple: either doing good deeds—from helping an old lady cross the street to dropping a nuclear bomb on the capital of a country—but neutral actions are troublesome and always take time.
"...Actually, there's no need to think so much."
He sighed, raised his hand, aimed at the tall building directly in front of him, and carefully extracted the meager amount of information he had accumulated. As the tiny specks of light evaporated, he touched his index and middle fingers together.
Because it was a busy urban intersection, passersby quickly noticed the group of people with their overly adolescent and immature personality. Most people glanced at them with the same disdainful look one might give a patient before quickly moving away. A few stopped to look, and a very small number took out their phones to record a news segment titled "The Social Harm of Adolescent Idolism."
Surrounded by gazes with varying attitudes, Lin Yi casually rubbed his two fingers apart.
"Snapped"
The snap of fingers was hardly loud; even the horns of passing cars could easily drown it out. However, the scene it triggered was something that no "reality" could conceal.
That was the sound of something breaking.
Starting from the bottom, as if struck by an invisible force, the glass on the opposite side of the entire twenty-story building began to shatter. The deafening crashes drowned out all screams and shouts, and the once orderly city was thrown into chaos by the sudden intrusion of this "force."
After all the glass in the wall shattered and fell, the terrified people realized the existence of the culprit. However, when they went to search again with completely different intentions, the place was empty. Only a boy who happened to pass by looked at the place where the figure had disappeared with a look of doubt and uncertainty.
"...That's impossible! Could it be a real person?!"
----------segmentation----------
On another street.
Lin Yi, who had just blended into the crowd, noticed a strange phenomenon.
Following his earlier "neutral big news," the information he had previously consumed actually began to be replenished.
When I turned back to take a closer look, a figure suddenly appeared in front of me.
—A figure imbued with "vitality".
Re:CREATORS: Chapter 492 The World of the "Creators" (Part 2)
Her presence was so striking that it was impossible to ignore her.
After all, it's impossible for a normal person to wear a thick military uniform on a hot day, let alone carry dozens of swords with built-in anti-gravity levitation systems.
And this incredibly immature and childish statement...
"Welcome, Ender of Worlds, Transcender of Life, Creator of Civilization, and Ruler of Origins, welcome to this world—the world that belongs to us 'Creators'."
Meanwhile, at another location.
"Based on the remaining images at the scene, we have roughly confirmed the origin of the newly appeared character through comparison."
When you tap the program on the screen, a silhouette appears.
[The following appears to be a series of unrelated phrases and sentences: "ba san lin jiu ling qi jiu ⑸]_ 8 qun liao [“novel?”]
"Yes, if the novel hadn't happened to have an image of the protagonist, we might never have been able to find out his true origins."
"To be honest, his existence is quite strange. If he was Altair's chosen target, he should have made contact with her from the beginning, and naturally he wouldn't be making such a declaring-his-existence-like gesture in the city without any purpose. If he wasn't Altair's chosen target, then this character's 'level of recognition' wouldn't be high enough to warrant his appearance in this world."
"This character isn't famous?"
"It's not even in the same league as Seresia and Meteora, and this work itself is not finished."
"But my works are also unfinished, aren't they?"
After hesitating for a moment, Aki Kikuchihara still revealed the news: "The creator of this character passed away during the creation process."
Seresia looked somewhat confused: "Eh...so you mean?"
Meteora, his eyes glued to the silhouette on the screen, concluded: "This work was abandoned."
----------segmentation----------
"...To put it simply, you want me to join your side and help you destroy this disappointing world?"
The girl in military uniform, who called herself Altair, nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, that's exactly our goal. If it were you, you would surely understand my ideal. We should take revenge on those 'creators' who gave you such a miserable fate just to please themselves, just like the worlds you destroyed, and together lead this world into an even deeper abyss of despair."
After considering for half a second, Lin Yi replied, "No problem."
Although the process was somewhat delicate, wasn't the goal of joining "the world of the few" achieved?
However, in terms of purpose, this faction should be "chaos" rather than "order," since the leader of the faction is a delusional person with the goal of destroying the world.
However, after Lin Yi personally agreed, the "chaotic leader" who invited him to join the camp became suspicious: "My ally, why don't you go and find your creator?"
“There’s plenty of time for this. More than that, I’m curious about who your other ‘allies’ and ‘enemies’ really are.”
"..."
Looking at the girl in military uniform who had suddenly fallen silent, Lin Yi chuckled: "There's nothing strange about it. After all, given the power you've shown so far, if there weren't any beings like you in this world opposing you, there's no reason why you would need to come to me for an alliance."
"You guessed right. I did extend an invitation to Seresia and Meteora, but unfortunately they were blinded by the appearance of this world and actually believed the ridiculous words of the 'creators' and chose to be my enemies. Of course, these are just insignificant obstacles on the way to the end. No matter how much they struggle, they are destined not to change the ending."
Looking around at the scene, Lin Yi suddenly blurted out, "Unfortunately, I can't see that in your behavior."
Because information entities cannot fly, Altair led Lin Yi on foot to the "base." During this walk, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they bypassed relatively bustling areas and quickly arrived near the no-man's-land. While this avoided being observed, it went against her stated "ideal"—
"If the ultimate ideal is to 'destroy the world,' then even if we don't come all the way through sparks and lightning, and instead slaughter thousands or tens of thousands of people along the way, we should at least be 'upright and honorable,' right?"
"...My ally, our situation is not as good as you say."
With his back to Lin Yi, who had raised the question, Altair was the first to step into the dilapidated, abandoned factory.
After squinting and recording the scene before him, Lin Yi followed up with, "Oh, really?"
Regardless of the true nature of this chaotic faction leader with his contradictory attitude, at least Lin Yi has obtained the information about this world he needed.
First of all, the vitality that Lin Yi sees (which has different names in different worldviews, such as spiritual energy, magic power, and so on) does not exist in this world itself, but comes from other worlds created by the "creators".
"To be precise, they flowed back into this world through the 'door' I opened, together with the protagonists of those worlds."
Altair's concept is easy to understand; you can simply replace the concept of spiritual energy in "spiritual energy reversal" with it.
"However, what determines the strength of the power we can wield in this world of 'creators' is not simply energy, but also 'the power of recognition'."
Lin Yi raised his hand, trying to grasp a different kind of power permeating the space, unlike any other active force, but only less than 1% was successfully absorbed; the vast majority escaped directly from his side: "The power of recognition?"
"That's right, you can also understand it as the power that is recognized and accepted by the people of this world... Generally speaking, the more famous a character is, the easier it is to gain recognition, and the stronger the power they can use in this world."
Crushing the sliver of "acknowledgment power" in his palm and feeling the completely different structure inside, Lin Yi suddenly smiled: "It seems that I am just an insignificant passerby in this world."
It's a system similar to "faith," but without the purity of faith in deities. Simply accepting something is enough; there's no need for elements like devotion.
"No need to worry, my ally."
Although Lin Yi herself did not experience any of the emotions described by Altair, she still accepted her "goodwill"—after all, she was an ally.
"If I can't offer much help in your story, it won't be difficult to help you regain some of your former strength in this world."
"After all, this is the world of those pathetic 'creators'."
Re:CREATORS: Chapter 493 Fundamental Differences
Because Altair said she needed help to improve her "acknowledgment," Lin Yi took the opportunity to investigate the "Creator" that Altair mentioned.
"novel?"
In this world where technology drives development, finding information online that isn't exactly confidential is incredibly easy—just type it in and the search is done.
It's just that what came into view was a little unexpected.
"I thought it would be a comic or something."
With a nonchalant attitude, I skimmed through "my own story".
From its nascent stage, it traverses the forbidden zone called life, comes into contact with the rules of the intelligent guardian alliance, and then permeates—even dominating the entire process of the root cause. But there is nothing after that.
