"Is this..., the barrier of a world fragment...?"
Tao Yu looked at the grassland ahead, his eyes also filled with a shocked expression.
An abrupt scene change!
On the last day before returning, he barely made it through the rainforest and arrived at the grassland mentioned by the radio.
Looking back, the dense rainforest that suddenly appeared was right behind him!
You could see many giant trees, all of them were violently torn apart in the middle!
Many of the outermost giant trees looked as if they had been cut vertically, exposing their uneven cores.
The cut surface was not smooth, as if nibbled by a dog, the same as the higher ground below.
The messy cut surface of the ground also revealed many tree roots; the ground was about three meters higher than the grassland side.
It was as if a piece of the puzzle was violently torn off and then forcibly stuffed here, completing the assembly!
One line apart, and there are two worlds!
Tao Yu raised his head to look at the sky; for now, the cloud layers and the sunlight didn't seem to show any obvious signs of division.
Perhaps there used to be, but clouds change constantly, and after being torn, they slowly became a new form, and overall the puzzle was still completed.
As for sunlight and day and night, I had heard that the situation within the Abyss fragments was also relatively chaotic. Sometimes several fragments are unified together, sometimes adjacent worlds are completely different, and there are even wholly independent worlds.
In short, the situation in the Abyss is very chaotic and complex, even the company's records are not comprehensive.
And whether one can fly out of the atmosphere to see if the outside is a star-filled sky is also entirely uncertain, likely Schrodinger's superposition, you only know once you go there.
"It's said that near the company's gathering place, when a new world fragment appears, it's possible that it will fall from this kind of division area, or even directly from a world, and then immediately form a new world, turning seas into mulberry fields overnight..."
Tao Yu thought of the limited information he had learned and couldn't help feeling somewhat emotional.
Besides that, when he jumped from the rainforest's ground, three meters high to the grassland, he could faintly feel a slight sense of discomfort.
This must be what they call the difference in 'World Forces.'
Different world fragments have different rules, and the upper and lower limits of the power exhibited in many world fragments greatly vary.
However, this kind of restriction and upper limit is just a passing mention by my parents at home, it's not much related to the Outsiders who are merely reaching for their own limits.
Actually, the most apparent place for these restrictions is the world we currently live in. The World Will is suppressing the power while resisting the consumption by the Abyss. It must be each world's self-protection mechanism.
But then again, these things don't matter much to the Outsiders, the mud-legged peasants; it seems the stronger one is, the more significant the suppression.
Besides that, theoretically, unique Yuan Force creatures from world fragments should meet some resistance when entering other fragments.
But seeing how the Aliens are happily roaming everywhere in the rainforest, this resistance's strength must also vary depending on the world.
"The grass is growing quite lush here, so I don't need to worry about not finding shade."
Tao Yu surveyed the grassland; the grass here generally grew to chest height and was exceptionally lush.
With the Qingfeng breeze blowing, you could see wave-like ripples in the sea of grass.
But beneath this grassland lie various hidden dangers.
Leaving others aside, if the Alien crawled and moved at high speed, it could completely hide itself within the sea of grass!
Fortunately, there is also shade here, and Tao Yu also has superior hiding skills.
"From what I heard in the broadcast, this should be that ruined planet from the Prometheus World, which, due to the black water, normally has no life on this grassland, and there's not much food."
Because he had always maintained the Acceleration Breathing Technique, Tao Yu's need for food was still quite substantial, and this was the first thing he considered.
But since this place connected to the rainforest and the Alien as a Yuan Force creature had entered the rainforest, it's certain that animals from the rainforest would venture into this deathly silent grassland.
There are no restrictions on the movement of ordinary animals.
Due to the black water, many of these animals will probably encounter misfortune and become Alien materials!
It's not known how long these two world fragments have been adjacent.
But since the Facehuggers are already running everywhere, the situation is probably quite severe.
This made Tao Yu's eyes fill with concern...
With the presence of black water, and the addition of Facehuggers, all the animals in the rainforest have the potential to become Aliens!
As time goes by, two worlds eroding each other, will they eventually form an endless army of Aliens...
"Tch~, those guys from the Floating Cities are quite keen; they know this isn't a good place to settle down. But in fact, if their choice of location is close to here, they might still be affected, or it's almost unavoidable."
The Pioneers from Starshine City on foot, searching for a suitable gathering spot, could possibly be slower than the spreading speed of the Aliens.
What kind of world is this?
If there were only the Pythons from the rainforest, it would be more challenging than a normal Awakening Day, but it's still somewhat manageable.
Just having the Aliens from the grasslands would be the same!
Because originally there were no creatures on the grasslands, the number of Aliens was limited.
But when these two cursed places combined, the resource-rich rainforest with the superior Python and the Aliens, this combination directly causes a disastrous situation.
At least even for the current Tao Yu, it's enough to make his scalp tingle.
