Swallow Consciousness

This is a world gnawed by knowledge In this world, knowledge is not words written on paper, but living things with physical form. They may float in the air like fireflies, or hibernate deep underground like giant beasts. Monks do not practice spiritual energy, but use special containers to "swallow" fragments of knowledge to gain power. But every swallowing comes with the risk of alienation—— Someone grows a third eye, but from then on can only see other people's death omens; Some people gain absolute rationality but lose the ability to perceive emotions and desires; Others tried to tame the "mathematical paradox" living body, and ended up splitting themselves into countless parallel individuals. When knowledge becomes the most dangerous force, human beings struggle to survive on the edge of madness.
