Chapter 2: Initial eye

Ray...

Lin saw the light, but what it saw was only the light. It was just a change of the previous darkness into a piece of light, meaningless...

Lynn needs more detailed information, more detailed images, so that she can see everything.

Just as Lin thought so, the cell that had eaten the hard object trembled a little, and more tentacles were used in the nucleus to connect.

Lin's thoughts are no longer a light or dark, slowly, blurred images appear, initially only very turbid colors, and as time goes by, this turbidity gradually begins to become clear.

Blue...Lin first saw the color, then it saw a few spherical objects floating in the blue.

Is that... my cells?

As the image is clear, Lynn clearly sees the appearance of her own cells, almost transparent film, the gray core, slowly floating in the water, swinging with the waves... It feels very interesting and peculiar.

It’s good to have eyes.

Lin observes the four cells around her, plus the cell that has the 'eyes', a total of five.

But it can't see what its eyes look like, so it decides to split the cell first, and it knows what the cell that gives itself to the vision is, and what the hard object that was swallowed before is what it is. .

So, Lin started again and looked for food.

Because of its vision, it can see the surrounding scenery, but in addition to a few of its own cells, the scenery that can be seen around is a blue.

This is the color of the water.

Suddenly, Lynn’s eyes saw something, a white, round shape that appeared in front of its cells.

This white thing feels soft, it is only one-fifth the size of Lin's cell, and it feels exactly the same as the previous food. Has it been this thing that I used to eat?

Without hesitation, Lynn let the cells with eyes eat it.

After the digestion is completed, Lin continues to swim.

Because of the eyes, it quickly found more white round foods. It didn't take long for Lynn's eye cells to collect enough splitting energy.

I felt that the cells with eyes began to split in two. Lin felt that she was a little excited, so that she could see what her eyes looked like.

Excited? Lin found that there was another new word in her thoughts. What does this mean?

That doesn't matter, it has now been split.

"?"

Lin couldn't see herself. It found that there was only one perspective in the thoughts, and the cells that split the eye cells were in front of their eyes...

But it has no eyes, and Lynn can't receive any images from this newly split cell.

Does the division not include the eyes?

Lin did not understand, but it found that the cells split by the eye cells were somewhat different from the other cells.

The membrane surface of this cell seems to have a small area that reflects the brilliance of white light and has a special feeling.

crystallization?

That's right, it's the word, a small piece of crystallized surface on the surface of this newly split cell membrane.

But Lin didn't know what it meant. It didn't feel anything special about this little crystal. It wasn't an eye because it couldn't see things.

So, it continues to act, and in order to gain more knowledge, it must grow its own group.

Now there are a total of six cells, and Lin directs them to swim forward and continue to find more food.

The cell of the eye, Lin intends to give it a special name...

Observer.

It feels good...

In Lin's thoughts, the first three words appeared, which was used as a name.

Observers use vision to find food. They need to be in contact with it before they can know that food is more convenient. It only needs a simple look to find the location of all the food around, and then other cells will go under the command of Lin to swallow those. food.

While swallowing and splitting, Lin is growing his cell community. Lin found that as long as the number of cells increases, his thoughts will be broader and he will know more words.

The number of cells has reached fifteen, and the surrounding food is also exhausted.

Now, it's time to move on to the next new location.

Lin uses the observer as the center of the group, and the surrounding cells are surrounded by a circle, so that it is convenient to eat any food close to the first time.

Lin slowly wandered and slowly grew up in the blue world, and after this action lasted for a while, it found that she had not encountered something new for a long time.

Water, white, round food.

Other than that, there is nothing, and the hard object that was visualized before it was eaten has never been seen.

Strange...

Just when Lin thought so, it suddenly saw a special thing.

That thing suddenly appeared above the observer's cell. It looked strange, dark, round, and probably only one-thirtieth of the size of Lynn's cells, but it was covered with sharpness. It is like a thorn.

Try it? Maybe it is food.

Lin puts a cell close to the object, then opens the cell membrane and swallows it in.

Initially, Lin didn't feel anything special. The object shook slightly inside the cell membrane, but it was not digested.

But then, Lynn’s cell suddenly flickered like a twitch, and the originally swelled and transparent cell membrane suddenly shrank, and the strange black with spiked object began to move and plunged into the nucleus. Among them.

A feeling that I have never had before, I have introduced Lin’s thoughts.

Lin felt this feeling for the first time, but Lin didn't feel interesting at all, but wanted to avoid it.

Is this... pain?

As the object penetrated into the nucleus, Lin's thoughts were strongly impacted.

It hurts... it hurts!

Then, the nucleus also shrinks like the outer cell membrane, and then Lin loses the painful feeling. At the same time, it loses its connection with this cell, and it can no longer feel it or control it.

died? Is it dead?

Lin's cell community surrounds the dead cell, and Lin is there, she doesn't know what to do, she doesn't know what to do.

Dead, this incomparably fresh word echoed in Lin's thoughts.

However, it seems that it is not over yet, and the dead cell suddenly swells again, and then bursts open, and the black thorn ball that caused the atrophy of Lin cells to rush out.

They are at least thirty in number, more than Lin's cell community. One of the thorns hits a relatively close cell of Lin, and the thorn ball penetrates into the cell membrane, and the cell is like this. That same, quickly shrinking.

Will die, will die, die, die, escape, escape, escape, escape, fight back, escape, run away

Looking at a lot of black thorns, Lin's thoughts flashed countless thoughts.

Lynn, I ran away.

It allows cells to sway up the cell membrane quickly and away from these spiky **** as quickly as possible.

The spiky ball does not seem to move autonomously, but only when it comes into contact with cells, so they can't catch up with Lynn's cells.

Lynn kept running until she couldn't see any black spikes.

Just now, what is that? That thorn ball... is it...

After confirming that it was safe, Lin began to recall the situation.

As before, Lynn should get a new word to correspond to the new situation.

But it is a pity that it seems that because of the loss of cells, Lin did not get new words.

But it also learned a lesson, the world, not only the soft food and the strange objects that make you gain vision, but also the horrible things that can destroy yourself.

It must be more careful, and Lin's will is produced by the entire cell population.

As long as there is a cell, its consciousness will also exist.

But on the contrary, if there is no cell left, it is the end of the creature of 'Lin'.
