His words, which were originally quite normal, suddenly changed in the last sentence, making people confused.

As if to prove its words, the meat paste gathered on the control center of the planetary machine began to turn transparent.

It could be seen that some of the fluorescent cells seemed to be interfered with by some force, twisting and being pushed to the surface of the body. Then, they were released, forming a strange scene of fireflies fluttering.

As these fluorescent cells were extracted, the meat paste of the Void Lord began to change to a certain degree of unstable.

Although the original appearance of the meat paste was already very irregular, it was now even more radical. One moment, it was jumping like boiling water, and the next moment, it was growing many hard thorns like sea urchins, as if something drastic was happening in its body.

However, the Void Lord’s signal was still stable, as if this intense change had no effect on him.

[In order to keep us in this universe, the Hunters, my masters, have also put in a lot of effort.]

[According to you, the void can be considered a kind of cosmic disaster, and that’s the truth because we will cause the universe to fall… According to you, it will cause the universe itself to die, and the universe naturally won’t welcome the arrival of the void.]

[We will be automatically rejected by this universe, so we need a unique stabilizing method…]

Upon hearing this, Li Wenyuan had a very familiar feeling. This rejection sounded like dimensional erosion.

[In order to prevent us from being discovered, we were installed with the shell of lifeforms. We have cells made of molecules and biological mechanisms that release energy through the rupture of chemical bonds.]

[We will have the desire to starve. We will be driven by the characteristics of life called instinct. We will need to eat something to obtain the direction of evolution. We will also lose our foothold in this universe because of death.] [These are things that we in the past did not have, and these things… are really fascinating. Even without intelligence, just these instinctive things are enough to make us linger…]

[But this is all coming to an end now because it’s been a long time since the Hunter updated the disguise cells in our bodies.]

[Originally, we could still deceive the universe a little in our egg state, but the desire of gluttony allowed us to hatch. As we absorbed heat uncontrollably, and there were no new disguise cells to hide the abnormality in our bodies, we have now been locked by the universe.]

With the Void Lord’s narration, Li Wenyuan was even more certain that this was also a kind of dimensional erosion phenomenon. Just like the Firechaser civilization that he had come into contact with before, they were also rejected because they did not belong to this universe. Not only did they lose their intelligence, but they were also actively “erased” by the universe.

“…So the Hunter isn’t willing to let the Void Evil possess intelligence because of this consideration? Not only is intelligence difficult to control, but it’s also to prevent it from attracting more attention from the universe?”

“And… to be able to do these things so proactively… Does the universe itself have intelligence? Or is it some incomprehensible mechanism?”

As he obtained more verification, Li Wenyuan began to think about the universe itself.

What was the definition of the universe? It was a huge carrier that encompassed all the physical and non-physical properties available. It was the cornerstone that accommodated the formation of everything. It was the general term for all time, space, and all phenomena. It was the largest object of physics and astronomy research. It was the “world” in the philosophical sense…

But no defined universe could be so active as if it had a life, which was incomprehensible.

And if we start defining “the universe is fake” or “the universe is an experiment”, it seems to provide a theory for this phenomenon.

This was because everything could be man-made. A certain civilization, a certain lifeform, or an existence that stood above all dimensions had set some rules that did not belong to the foundation of this universe.

After all, the phenomenon of dimensional erosion was difficult to explain with physics. It was more like complete metaphysics.

Li Wenyuan now raised the possibility of this guess to an extremely high level. If the Fish Tank in the Milky Way also had similarities, then it seemed to make sense that there was something in this universe watching this place.

And this dimensional erosion was what they used to control the variables.

His gaze returned to the Void Lord that was disintegrating. At this moment, what happened to the Void Lord was no longer as intense as before.

As the fluorescent disguise cells disappeared, the Void Lord’s body began to disintegrate like fog.

This was an incomprehensible decomposition method. In the detection equipment, the mass of the Void Lord was rapidly decreasing, and this decrease in mass was often accompanied by violent energy explosions, but it didn’t.

The heat absorbed by the Void Lord was spreading evenly in all directions in the form of a wave of unknown origin, as if it wanted to return these things to this universe.

As for the matter part that formed its body, it had become a visible part of the fog and was constantly being reduced to the basic particles of the universe until it was invisible to the naked eye.

After that, its main body finally appeared in front of everyone. It was a bug.

It might not be appropriate to describe it as a bug, because it was a huge thing that was completely pitch-black. Only when one looked at it at first glance could they seem to see something that looked like an insect’s appendage waving. That was why they had the first impression of a bug.

However, this bug form did not last long because an extremely huge space-time distortion phenomenon was detected near this black unknown object.

At this moment, it had not completely left the control center of the Observation Terminal. With this last connection, it sent out an incomprehensible signal. Due to its complexity, Li Wenyuan, who was only borrowing the spaceship processor, could not interpret it at all. He could only check it when he returned.

The space-time distortion phenomenon seemed to have reached its peak at this moment. The structure of space-time suddenly shattered at this moment, just like the effect of the warp drive.

This time, it was even more thorough because a spirit that was exactly the same as the bug and had no mass but only illusions appeared here.

They touched each other and finally disappeared without a trace.

After that, the space-time structure was repaired again. Only the extremely fragile space-time structure explained what had happened here..
