I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 351

“Illusion brainwashes rankers?”

“huh. “All the players I’ve seen have experienced a change in their way of thinking due to ‘memory.’”

When I heard about the vision from Alshas, I had a vague guess.

What does it mean to kill the ‘real self’ or ‘self in this world’ that appears in fantasy?

I thought that perhaps fantasy was like a leash for strangers who came to this world. However, because there was no clear evidence, it remained only a hypothesis.

The more I listen to Isabel, the closer I become to being sure of that.

“It looks like you didn’t just see Cynthia and Alshas.”

“that’s right. When I was with Penelope and when I was under Cynthia’s control, I met many rankers. And I also saw them change because of ‘memory.’”

I have also collected information about fantasy through various rankers. However, I don’t know how things changed before and after seeing the vision. In the case of the Heavenly Mother, the level of deification rose once, but did not show any significant changes. My case is also an exceptional case.

‘Still, it’s surprising.’

Isabelle knew something that I didn’t know either. Even if you have the privilege of reading information, recognizing changes in yourself is a different matter.

Recognizing that I was curious, the guy added an explanation.

“It was thanks to Penelope that I realized something was wrong with my ‘memory.’”

“You found out thanks to 18th place? how?”

“My sister and I had a good relationship. Until my sister became independent, we did everything together. Thanks to you, I was able to find out right away. “The ‘memory’ changes my sister’s thoughts.”

Space Survival is a game in which players from many countries participate. As a result, I understand that there are not many cases where players meet in real life and continue their relationship. At most, people from the same clan or country see each other once in a while.

‘But Penelope and Isabel are exceptions.’

The two were twins in real life. If you are family and get along well, you will quickly notice changes in the other person.

“It was definitely something we experienced together, but she remembered it completely differently.”

“Your memories have changed?”

“huh. After seeing the fantasy, my sister perceived life in the real world in a distorted form. “I didn’t do that before.”

After hearing those words, I could understand why she said ‘memory’ rather than ‘fantasy’. Why is it called brainwashing?

‘For us whose bodies have completely changed, memory is the only means of sustaining our ego.’

The scars I suffered from falling when I was young, the relationships I formed with various people, including family and friends. There are absolutely no elements in this world that prove that I am ‘me’. Only the memory of living in ‘reality’ defines ‘my’ existence.

‘What if memories are manipulated in that situation?’

In this world, elements of reality and memory cannot be contrasted. Therefore, it is impossible to prove that I am changing into another being.

“How much has Penelope changed?”

“It is true that my sister originally liked this world, but every time she saw a fantasy, her obsession became more intense.”

“Is that why you tried to save the Coldblood slaves even at the cost of your life?”

I know that Penelope, ranked 18th, is a ranker who has a particular love for space survival. Just like I was called Moffak, she was called Gallagon Mania. Since she was like that, it was not strange for her to care about the safety of her people.

‘It’s just that the level is excessive.’

If you look at it that way, the goal of fantasy is not to completely change your personality and make you into a different person. Rather, it should be seen as closer to leading to a specific goal and a specific direction. As Isabel expressed it, it would be safe to call it brainwashing.

I did not kill my ‘real self’ in fantasy. But I don’t know what will happen when I see the illusion again later. Like other players, I can be consumed by illusions and become something I am not.

‘But you can’t just avoid it.’

In my case, I also see illusions when combining unique characteristics with a transcendental system. This means that if you try to avoid illusions, you will inevitably have to give up some part of evolution.

‘But you can’t.’

There are a lot of people targeting me right now. Those who aim for the ending will want to kill me, the only adult Amorph, and those who seek to rule the universe will see me as a serious threat.

‘You need strength to face your enemies.’

I think I should tell him the truth. If you are a guy who has encountered more rankers than me, he might be able to tell you something helpful.

“I told you when we first met. “I only glimpsed memories of the past and didn’t make any choices.”

“I remember it like that.”

“Actually, that was a lie. “I did not kill ‘the real me’ nor did I kill the ‘me in this world.’”

The guy who heard me didn’t seem to understand at first. After a while my eyes widened as I realized I had made a choice not to kill my ego.

“Does that mean you avoided the brainwashing of ‘memory’?”

“Well, I don’t know that much. “All I can say is that I made an unusual choice.”

“....”

“Among the people you saw, is there anyone who made the same choice as me?”

The guy thought for a moment and shook his head.

“no. “I’ve seen people who put their choice on hold, but I’ve never seen anyone decide ‘I won’t kill’ like Eimoff.”

“Has any of those who withheld their choice experienced something like this? “If the fantasy continues to appear in order to change the ego.”

“I...think it’ll be okay.”

This is a question I asked the guy because I couldn’t decide for myself. I thought it would be difficult to answer, but surprisingly, he answered quickly.

“As you may have guessed, beings who manipulate ‘memories’ are not omnipotent. “There is no way an omnipotent being would manipulate us in such a cumbersome way.”

“yes.”

“We are using this method because there are limitations. So, I don’t think Amov will be under as much pressure as before.”

“You’ve made a choice, so don’t put pressure on yourself and move on to the next step.”

“huh. “It’s very likely.”

Come to think of it, Alshas also said something similar.

Beom-ho, the leader of the returning faction, and No. 4 said that they saw a fantasy about returning to reality and adapting. As the goal is to return, it can be seen that the fantasy stage has progressed.

‘In the end, I’ll find out for sure when I see the next vision.’

At this point, there is only one way for me to see the illusion.

It’s about raising the level of the space monster type.

If you collect material properties to create 4 unique properties, you will advance to level 3. I had a vision when I went up to level 1 and 2, so level 3 should be the same.

Anyway, even if it wasn’t because of fantasy, I had to upgrade the type at some point. This is because I need to become strong to survive in a situation where both the ruling faction and the return faction are hostile to me.

‘First, I have to create a unique characteristic that uses demon machines as materials.’

With this, the next goal has been decided.
