"'The First Miracle' turned into a big tree?"
Colin looked at the words thoughtfully. This seemed to be a sign of something. At that time, the hands and feet of the sculpture were indeed severely twisted and changed, like vines.
But he didn't expect that this "miracle" body would be twisted into a tree...
The tree transformed by the "Twisted Father" mentioned above seems to be under attack for some reason, but I can't see the enemy clearly...
"And it seems that looking directly at the 'First Miracle' won't cause sudden death?"
Colin noticed that the diary mentioned that they only noticed this later, which means...
They may have made preparations, but the "Twisted Father" has always been enshrined in the church as a victim and presented to the world.
As a result, they did not realize at the first time that it was the legendary miracle itself...
Although this led to immeasurable consequences, Colin noticed that they did not encounter any problems at the first time.
Or rather, just some minor issues, too minor to be recorded in a diary...
"The First Miracle: Distorted Father" does not seem to release the same powerful and terrifying mental interference as other aberrations...
"It seems that the current state of the 'First Miracle' is a bit strange. After turning into a big tree, no one knows whether it is dead or alive..."
Colin remembered that some "small miracles" could even communicate under certain conditions, but he didn't know if the "big miracles" were like this.
It was the first time for him to learn more about the "great miracle", and he didn't know much...
As for the issue of the tasks mentioned above not being updated...
Colin could roughly guess the reason. At that time, the "system" might have "reorganized" itself and updated the version to prevent the contamination from spreading further...
Given its state at the time, even if someone completed the task, it probably wouldn't have had time to worry about it...
Therefore, Amos failed to receive the next assignment.
However, this also confirmed Colin's guess that once a task is released, it seems to exist forever...
Even if the "system" dies suddenly, the "task" will continue to exist.
This might be the reason why he can occasionally activate some of the previous system reserved tasks...
And, from this, we can infer that... the previous "system" did exist and was once active in this land, otherwise there would not be any reserved tasks...
"But... where did the survivors before Russell go? It's as if they disappeared from the face of the earth. There's no trace at all."
Colin remembered that Barton said that the first news they heard about the survivors was a few months ago...
In the decades before, no one had heard of these people, or even had any idea of the civilization outside this world...
But the paradox is that there are "tasks" everywhere here, and the things left behind by the "system" from an earlier time indicate that they once existed.
But the disappearance was more complete than expected...
The only reasonable explanation Colin could think of now was that they might have arrived earlier than they thought, at the end of the "Age of Suffering", catching up with the "Great Cataclysm", and then for some unknown reasons, they all disappeared, as if they had never appeared...
