"The giant cap jellyfish is very large, up to hundreds of meters long, and very dangerous to people who eat at sea. Such a dangerous creature is not just one jellyfish, but a group of jellyfish."
"In this group, some jellyfish are responsible for eating, while others are responsible for swimming. A group of creatures live like one organism, but they can separate when they need to reproduce."
“I think we can try to learn from them, too.”
After hearing what Charles said, someone asked, "We can share our flesh and blood, and even consciousness, but do you think this will be helpful against 002 and Futan in the center of the earth? Even if we join forces, we are no match for them."
"I didn't say I was going to deal with Futan. Can you please listen to me first?"
Charles looked at the man with dissatisfaction. Only after interacting with so many of him did Charles realize how annoying he was.
“When some knowledge becomes too much to bear, we need more people to share the burden at the same time.”
"What knowledge? What knowledge do we need to share?"
"All the knowledge we have gained after becoming gods is the key to our dealing with Futan." Charles finally stated his purpose.
"What exactly is Charles thinking after he becomes a god? What is his purpose? We can try to analyze him thoroughly to fully understand ourselves."
"I have thought a lot and calculated a lot during this period. No matter how much I prepare, the success rate in the end is pitifully small."
"We must understand what we are like after becoming gods, and what gods are. It is useless to hide blindly. We must master the power of higher dimensions to have a chance of survival."
"Of course, the knowledge of a divine being can easily make us become gods in an instant. In order to prevent this from happening, we need to divide it into many parts. Each person takes one and then gathers them together when needed. This way, we will have much less pressure."
This method is extremely dangerous. For the time being, no one knows how strong one will be after becoming a god.
The worst outcome of capturing and thoroughly dissecting a god-like self would likely be total annihilation.
No one spoke at the long table; they were silently calculating their gains and losses.
"I know this plan is very dangerous, so I brought it up at this time. After all, all other possible backup plans have been prepared, right? This is the only thing we are doing now."
"Let's vote now, the minority shall obey the majority." After Charles said this, I was the first to raise my hand.
"I don't want to live until the end of the world. If I die with hope in the confrontation with myself now, maybe it will be a good thing. I agree." Charles raised his metal left arm.
"+1" Charles also raised his hand.
Hands were raised one by one. When he saw that the number had exceeded half, Charles slapped the table lightly. Different dimensions quickly appeared on the table. Charles, who had become a god, appeared.
They all look roughly the same, a weird ball of flesh floating in the sea.
Black soft scales, pumping blood vessels, everted internal organs, wriggling tentacles, and slightly open yellow eyeballs, these things formed the body of Charles after he became a god.
Since they all looked similar, there was not much to choose from, and soon there was only one plane left on the table.
That was Charles who became a god when he tested Futan before.
"How do we get through? All the people are blocking the entrance of the cave." Suddenly someone asked the most critical point, and now all the Charles were unable to move.
Charles tapped his head. "Split it up and block the hole. We don't need to stay there. I've tried it before. We only need one-fifth. The remaining four-fifths can be used for other things."
"Wouldn't that mean the consciousness would also be split? Another Richard?"
All Charles began to split. The flesh pillars that were supposed to stand on the rock and the sea surface collapsed one after another, and the pool of flesh and blood at the entrance of the cave blocked the cave like a door.
Soon, everyone gathered in the plane of Charles who had become a god. The piles of flesh and blood islands in the deep sea were almost paved into a continent.
At the center of them is Charles, who has become a god.
Although he was surrounded, he seemed not to sense any danger and just floated there without moving.
Facing their godlike selves, Charles and others did not dare to be careless. Their flesh and blood began to merge and their consciousness began to connect.
"Stay together, but don't get too close. If you devour another self, you know what the consequences will be." Charles said to the others in his consciousness.
Soon they finally formed a huge flesh pocket that was hundreds of kilometers long. The mutual fusion of the gods caused the instability of space. Some space-time rifts appeared and disappeared around them.
After a little adjustment, Charles and others began to move, and the huge pocket slowly wrapped the entire meat ball.
Dense, wriggling flesh began to grow on the ball of flesh, trying to replace the things above.
However, something unexpected happened. The tentacles squirmed on the ball of flesh but no entity was sensed, as if it was just an illusion or projection.
Various sensory organs began to grow inside the pocket and began to observe the condition of the meat ball.
"This is just its appearance. Its real body is deeper in the angle. Who learned to control the angle from Tuba? Try a different angle."
Following Charles' command, the angle began to switch. Charles looked different at each angle. The only thing in common was that they had no entity and he was somewhere else.
The angles kept folding, the incredible and even terrifying invisible darkness, the shining balls of light and the laughing winged creatures kept appearing and disappearing around them.
Maybe these things are very dangerous to other beings, but for Charles and others now, they are the ones who need to escape.
Finally they came to the bottom level. This hazy place was difficult to describe in human language. The only thing that could be said was that it was very bright here, so bright that they could clearly see each other's internal organs.
Charles, who could change the angle, warned: "Don't let your imagination run wild. This place is very strange. Whatever you dream of here can come true."
No one thought about it, because all Charles was stunned. They saw that the meat ball they wrapped had turned into an eye, a yellow-brown eyeball.
The eye stalk that grew under the eyeball continued to spread to the outer flesh wall.
"Meat wall?" All the Charles grew eyes on the outside of their pockets at the same time.
They saw that a layer of constantly wriggling flesh wall had surrounded them from the outside, and they were now the ones being surrounded.
What made Charles even more confused were those yellow eyes scattered all over the flesh walls. Those eyeballs looked so familiar.
After quickly searching his memory, Charles saw the same eyeball the moment he reached the surface.
That is Itik's eyeball. To be exact, Charles after becoming a god is Itik!
