Chapter 461: 257 “Variables Arise” and “Cognitive Bias” (Please Subscribe)_2

Of course, this could also be because the Demon Mother River was just too vast.

If one were to say that the entire Crimson World was the Demon Mother River, it would be possible for Milton to encounter a situation that no other demon had come across in these years.

But the likelihood of this was very low.

Milton didn’t think that was the case.

Because even if the Demon Mother River were vast, it wouldn’t be to the extent that he couldn’t comprehend.

After all, during the Reincarnation Simulation, Milton had observed the red light spots that represented the Crimson World.

Although the red light spots representing the Crimson World were very large, they weren’t so big that Milton couldn’t understand them.

Of course, while Milton had many guesses in his mind, he was not yet in a position to verify them at this moment.

Everything had to wait for a variable to occur.

Milton didn’t think his Reincarnation Simulation would continue like this until it ended.

After all, if that were the case, what about the other demons born in the Demon Mother River?

It couldn’t possibly be the same for all of them. If it were, the Demon Tribe would not be one of the largest tribes in the Abyss.

It was simply beyond Milton’s current cognition.

But that was only for now.

There would always come a time when he could perceive it.

In this judgment, Milton was somewhat confident.

However, as for what this variable might be and when it would come, that was beyond Milton’s prediction.

The Abyss did not keep track of time.

Another indeterminate number of years had passed.

At least, in Milton’s perception, a very long period of time had gone by once again.

During this time, as usual, Milton’s demon body wandered aimlessly in the Demon Mother River.

But at this moment, a thought suddenly struck Milton.

Because he had now noticed a change in his perception of the Demon Mother River that was different from before.

This discovery stirred Milton’s heart.

During this time, Milton had actually never given up perceiving his surroundings.

It had become a habit, and Milton didn’t harbor much hope anymore.

But at this moment, he suddenly realized that his perception of his environment had undergone a change unlike the usual.

This change was very subtle yet very clear compared to the sameness.

Therefore, Milton captured this change immediately.

“It seems I have perceived a surge of energy-like existence flowing into my body.”

“Could this be the way a demon grows stronger?”

“Is it just that my luck was so bad before that I never encountered it?”

At this moment, Milton mused to himself.

One after another, three thoughts emerged in Milton’s mind.

Although Milton wasn’t clear about what specifically this energy flow represented, he was sure that it was definitely beneficial to him.

After all, his demon body didn’t feel any discomfort after this energy influx; instead, there was a rather comfortable sensation.

This feeling was something the former Milton had never experienced.

Before, he had always been devoid of any feeling.

Not even the basic sensations of hunger and fatigue were perceivable by Milton.

But at this moment, Milton could clearly feel a very comfortable sensation.

Although this feeling was weak, Milton knew his body would not deceive his consciousness.

That meant that all of this truly existed and was not just psychological.

“Finally, it is not unchanging. Although I’m unclear about the significance of this energy, it’s still better than nothing.”

Milton thought to himself.

While contemplating in his heart, Milton did not resist the energy flow entering his body at all.

After all, even if this situation were to turn out badly, Milton Cheney would not refuse it.

How bad could it possibly get anyway? At worst, he would just end this round of Reincarnation Simulation.

It was just one round of Reincarnation Simulation. Even if it ended now because of this situation, Milton Cheney would not be at a loss.

After all, it could be considered a trial-and-error for him.

Of course, that was just the worst-case scenario.

The current situation was definitely not the worst-case scenario; in fact, it wasn’t even bad at all.

After all, at the moment, Milton Cheney had no feeling of discomfort whatsoever.

If his body truly began to feel unwell, then perhaps his instincts would naturally stop him from continuing to absorb this flow of energy.

“But this energy flow is too faint. If I weren’t deliberately perceiving it, I would almost be unable to notice it at all,”

Milton Cheney thought to himself.

This was actually one aspect that confused him at the moment.

That was, the energy flow he perceived was too faint.

So faint that Milton Cheney began to wonder if he had encountered this situation before but hadn’t intentionally perceived his surroundings at the time.

Such a faint level of energy flow, as one can imagine, would not bring about any noticeable changes to Milton Cheney’s demon body.

And indeed, that was the case.

When everything calmed down and Milton Cheney felt that the environment had returned to the same state as before,

And when he tried to perceive his demon body again, he found that there was no change whatsoever.

Yes, there was no change at all.

Perhaps it was because the change was too faint for Milton Cheney to detect.

Ultimately, Milton Cheney could not perceive any change in his body.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had just genuinely perceived a change in everything, Milton Cheney might even think that what just happened was an illusion.

But it was precisely what had just happened that suddenly gave rise to a new thought in Milton Cheney’s mind.

Previously, it seemed that he had fallen into a thought trap.

After becoming a demon, Milton Cheney had always been perceiving his surroundings.

Since he did not have eyes and could not see everything around him, he could only rely on the innate perceptual ability of his demon body to sense his environment.

Milton Cheney assumed there were no other demons in the Demon Mother River because he could not perceive any.

But if one thinks about it differently,

Not being able to perceive other demons doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t exist.

After all, from the moment of his birth until now, except for the slight changes he had just sensed, his perception of the surroundings had been unchanging.

That is to say, he did not know what it would look like to detect other demons.

After all, there was nothing about this in his Inherited Memory.

“Could it be that I am surrounded by demons?”

“Or maybe I can’t detect other demons, and other demons can’t detect my presence either.”

“Or perhaps from the beginning of my birth, I have been surrounded by demons, but because my perception of the surroundings has remained unchanged from the start, that’s why I believed there were no other demons in the Demon Mother River.”

Several thoughts surfaced in Milton Cheney’s mind.

With the emergence of these thoughts, Milton Cheney suddenly had a strange feeling.

Perhaps it was intuition, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that he was surrounded by countless other demons; it was just that he couldn’t see them or touch them.

“What I just perceived, could it have been the aura of a more advanced demon, or perhaps some existence different from demons?”

After those thoughts, Milton Cheney began to draw conclusions from one fact to form theories.

He started to speculate on why there was a change in his perception.

But thoughts, after all, were just thoughts, and these were merely Milton Cheney’s speculations.

After all, having just experienced the change, he was still unable to verify the speculations in his mind.

All he could do was to be more cautious, and beyond that, Milton Cheney was still powerless to do anything else.

Even if he was surrounded by demons, what would it matter? If different demons could not detect each other’s presence, it would be no different from there being no other demons at all.
