Book 1: Chapter One “The Beginning Cell”


    Author: Xiang Wei Xing Zhe (Phase Walker)


    A cell that was born at the beginning of the life of a will see the rise and decline of countless civilizations, the speciation and extinction of organisms. Under the endless cmities of the world, nothing remains unchanging. Only by continuously changing oneself and evolving in the face of adversity could one achieve perfect victory.


    The story starts from a little cell


    Trantor review: Another ongoing story   if it isntplete, I dont want to make amitment to finish it because it is likely that I may not like the storyter on or if the author suddenly disappears.


    Some have remarked on how simr the title of this story in Chinese is simr to Evo: The Journey to Edens Japanese name. Im not sure how simr the story is to the game but it is an evolution story. But this is more scifi and fantasy. Do not expect super urate science and just a reminder, this will NOT be set on Earth. Things may be simr, but not Earth.


    What I like about the novel is that one, it has an asexual main character. A cell does not have gender   It is also a soothing read because the beginning is about a cell exploring and it is an exploratory story. So not a lot of other characters or dialogue, more descriptions and stream of consciousness of the main character cell.


    A small figure shed past a blue and t ocean surface at high speed.


    Haha~ This doesnt have many multi-cellr organisms but it has an ocean? So rare. Ive spent so long search for a ce like this. This time, I can enjoy being the Creator once ~ Even though Im just throwing in some primitive cells native to Earth in here


    This figure had short golden hair and an adorable face. She looked like a young Loli. Stopping above the ocean surface, she lightly waved her hand and arge spray of what appeared to be water droplets fell into the ocean.


    And then   adding on a bit of my knowledge to one of these cells ~ and   consciousness~


    Ah, right, and this. If they do not have eyes, arent they unable to see? Wont that be so pitiful~ With this, even a simple cell can have normal vision.


    She then threw some powder into the ocean.


    Catherine, lets go~


    A voice suddenly came from the sky that caused the lolis body to still.


    I know,ing!


    She replied and then looked at the sea. Im going now, I wille back to see you in the future.


    I really wonder what you will be  ?


    As she spoke, the little lolis body slowly floated up. She then turned into a streak of light and vanished into the sky.


    Where is this? Who am I?


    This was the first thoughts it had. It had a consciousness, and the sense of touch, but it did not have vision or smell. Through its only sense, it knew it was in a liquid.


    This liquid seemed to be called water.


    I   am called a cell?


    It did not have any brains but it knew what shape its body was. There was a thin sphericalyer and the center of the sphere had aplex densely packed construct that was called the nucleus. It was due to the existence of this nucleus that it could think, move, be alive


    However, this was the limit of its thinking. Such a small nucleus could not let it think further.


    Move   search


    It controlled the think outeryer, and theyer started to ripple like waves. This movement caused it to slowly move in the water, and it searched for its own target in the endless darkness


    Food.


    Food was equivalent to energy. With energy, it could have more knowledge, and a bigger body that could allow it to think more.


    Swimming forward, it suddenly felt its outer membranee into contact with something.


    Food?


    It tried to figure out what this object was, but other than soft, there was not anything else. Then what could it to do figure out more about what this object was.


    Consume it!


    It used the thin membrane to surround this object and then engulfed it.


    It felt this object slowly shrink inside its body and then disappear. It also felt that its body was slowly changing. The fragile and almost intangible membrane around its body was slowly being strengthened, and grew.


    This activity disappeared after a short while, but this feeling of fullness caused it to know


    That just now was food. It had to get more   food!


    It rapidly rippled its outer membrane and quickly encountered something else like the object just now. It hurriedly engulfed it.


    It was a feeling just like before. The object that it engulfed slowly shrank   this time, it thought of a term.


    This was   digestion.


    After swallowing two piece of food, its body mass grew slightlyrger and it had more energy. Its speed increased. This meant that it could find more food, and obtain more energy.


    Engulf, engulf, engulf.


    It almost swallowed all the soft things around it. Its body grew a whole sizerger.


    Yet it still wasnt satisfied. It still swam in the water and tried to engulf more food.


    When it engulfed the next piece of food, its body seemed to expand to a maximum size. When it finished digesting its food, its body did not continue to expand. It slowly tore apart staring with the nucleus as the center and then itpletely divided.


    In the end, it became two parts that werepletely the same. They had the same spherical outer membrane, the same nucleus, it hadpletely divided into two.


    However, its consciousness had not divided into two.


    Even though it had divided into two cells, it still felt the two were a part of it. It could control both of these parts just as easily as it could control its two hands.


    What are hands?


    Its thoughts seemed to have be more varied. The doubled nucleus gave it more power to think but there were even more questions.


    Speaking of this, who am I?


    I should have a name


    And this name is


    Lin.


    For some reason, it only had this thought in its mind.


    Then I will be called this. Lin   it feels pretty good.


    Lin continued to swim. The two cells slowly moved in the water and continued to gather food.


    This meant higher intelligence, more cells meant more energy.


    Because Lin was now two cells, it found food faster. One of its cells quickly consumed enough and entered the stage of division.


    When this cell finished dividing, Lin had three cells. These three identical cells represented the existence of Lin.


    Lin had absolute control of them. Even though the three cells were not connected together, controlling them was not harder than controlling one. It felt even easier.


    Right after, Lin produced many more questions. It could think about many things and found the biggest problem of the present.


    Darkness.


    Yes, it was unable to detect the state of the surroundings. Even though it felt that the surroundings were liquid, it was unable anything more detailed   because everything in the surroundings, to Lin, was endless darkness.


    Eyes


    This term popped out of Lins thoughts yet it was unable to understand the term.


    In order to understand this term, Lin tried to consume more food. But it seemed as though it had eaten up most of the soft food around it. It nned on swimming further away.


    The three cells, the three little cells that had the same consciousness, stepped onto its journey


    ?


    Suddenly, Lin felt the cell at the front seemed toe into contact with something. This was different than the soft food, it felt very hard, but it was smaller than the food before.


    It was unable to analyze what this was. Lin had one of the cells engulf it.


    it seems indigestible.


    The hard object did not show any signs of shrinking inside one of Lins cells. It silently floated in the cell.


    It seemed to be a useless object?


    Lin did not care and continued to search for other food.


    In the nearby surroundings, it found many of the soft things that it encountered before but nothing that was hard.


    It still continued on its mission of eating. One of Lins cells once again reached its energy storage limit and divided.


    This time, Lin had four cells. But it still felt that it wasnt enough and continued


    When the number of cells reached five, the thought that Lin had before rose up again.


    It wanted to see


    Wanted to see everything outside! I dont want darkness!


    When its thoughts reached a certain level of fierceness, the nucleus inside the cell which had consumed the hard object suddenly trembled slightly.


    Something like a tentacle reached out of the nucleus and lightly touched the hard object. The tentacle slowly pushed it towards the surface of the cell membrane.


    When the hard object was slightly exposed out of the cell membrane, bright light broke through the darkness and entered Lins consciousness.


    Trantor Ramblings: Someone should take my inte away. As a side-effect of being a trantor, my first thoughts when I read something turns into how can I trante this into English   Anyways, in further procrastination on my own part for World of Cultivation, more stuff from a work that is ongoing.
