>>5668043>>5668046<span class="mu-s">South of the Scraplands where the Edismon are making their homes, the machinery whirrs and chugs. The ground splits open, and virtual trees are sent flying as colossal constructions break their way out of the earth. Some infernal engine begins to rotate, creating a new area of the Ancient Ruins that can support metallic life as well.</span>
>>5668047>>5668057The Gogglemon expand across the world rather easily, uncontested for now as they take Oceans, Shallows, and Ruins all the same. Waves of blue slime spread across the waves.
>>5668122>>5668191As the new generation of Trojomon break open the ice, they find their bodies worn down in the process. These ones will be slow to flourish, for sure, but the hard work and sacrifice they're putting in will change the landscape for ages to come, and hopefully their descendants can reap the rewards.
>>5668178>>5668180Abandoning guile due to the lack of actual larger prey, the Delivermon begin grasping the boats with their limbs and draining information from them. Sucking up their Viral data, as well as taking on such viral tendencies themselves, is slowly muddying their attribute.
>>5668190>>5668293Despite their efforts, Feremon don't thrive in any of the new ground they're attempting to claim. The Bidemon are too strong, and use all their tactics to hunt them down. Numerous populations bide their time at the edges of new terrain, unable to fully make forays into them. Up North, the SnoFeremon discover the edge of the digital world!
>>5668248The Bowelsmon epidemic spreads across the sea, causing numerous Eramon to be latched onto. However, they flourish more than the parasites that are hooked onto them, via eating their younger cousins.
>>5668323Redimon continue their spread. Their factories even begin encroaching on the Ancient Ruins, ensuring that no other constructions can sully the land. Some helpers make it down into the shallows, where the watery conditions are too much for them.
>>5668381>>5668667As glowing black bodies charge into the Scraplands, they find plenty of food. It fights back, sure, but more Bidemon win in the end. They claim a large portion of land for themselves. Meanwhile, the Telesmon peacefully spread through the ruins, at the fringes of an area that's just seen a major upheaval.
>>5669016Eating their lesser form allows the Eramon to thrive over their parasites. Eventually, not even the Combustmon are safe from this predation, leading some to head West. An Eramon population beaches itself, and lie inert as bombshells on the beaches.
>>5669489>>5669491The reap_r program continues to upgrade itself. However, it soon finds that in doing so, its left itself unable to properly interface with inferior cousins. It'll be forced to have them update themselves before it can reap the benefits of a proper information network again. The viruses it's attempting to purify are undergoing a large change as well.
