3611 3611 The Origin of Flowers? (1/2)

”You ... want to find that legendary world?”

”The world that you call the 'third world'?”

”You know, there has never been a third world.”

”What you can find ... only countless imitations ... they are all imitations!”

This is a legend a long time ago.

There is a legend about some kind of creature wandering in the void.

This creature's body shape is like a flower, they have always lived in ... the void tunnel.

They move in the void tunnel in a similar way to plankton, living a life of drifting and collecting food.

They have never had any special things to do, nor have they wanted to do anything special.

But they are so special in nature, that is, this flower-like creature, it is said that they have a huge ecology.

But they are not huge in themselves.

This flower-shaped creature has a maximum diameter of only a few tens of meters, because the lifestyle is ... youza, so these creatures are usually not noticed by other creatures.

But among the creatures for a long time, some kind of creature noticed them and began to ... observe them.

The most special aspect of the 'flower creatures' themselves lies in their ecology.

They have an extremely complex environment on their bodies of tens of meters in size. On each of their 'petals', there are more than ten million kinds of creatures, and these creatures host smaller creatures.

They form a very complex ecological relationship with each other, and the biological ecology on each petal is 'independent'. These creatures rarely intersect with the other petals.

Mainly because the interval between each petal of the petal creature is actually their ... eating organ.

This feeder function produces a strong 'energy', which makes it difficult for species between each petal to contact another species.

And why they have such a complicated ecological form is a mystery, and it may have been generated by accident.

But this is very special. Although it is said that there are always many creatures living on various drifting lifestyles, there are not as many as flowers.

Perhaps only as large as the Stellar Bus will have so many creatures living on the surface.

For a long time, only flower creatures themselves knew that they had this kind of ecology, and they didn't care.

Until sometime.

Occasionally, a creature noticed the condition of the flower. It may have captured a flower initially, and soon it was attracted by the complex ecology on the skin of the flower.

”This is a miracle. Is this a miracle that happened by chance?”

It is said that this was the idea of ​​the creature at that time.

Then, it began to study flower organisms all the time, and its research goal was to find the source of the complex ecology of flowers.

By observing the usual way of life of flowers, and where they go, etc., this creature came to a conclusion.

That is 'impossible'.

Although flowers are drifting creatures, they are still active within a certain range.

No matter how it is calculated, the flower itself is impossible to ”naturally” produce such a complex ecology, there must be other factors.

So it investigates the details of the flowers more deeply.
