Chapter 156: The Voice of Nolan

"Mr. Qiao Xiu, what's the matter?"

Tailin put down the handle, ran to Joshua's desk with Ciri and sat down.

During these two weeks, the relationship between the frost elf and Qiao Xiu became thoroughly familiar, not only with Qiao Xiu, but also with everyone in Hearthstone Tavern.

Especially Ino, this frost elf seems to like Ino very much.

"How is the growth of the World Tree?" Qiao Xiu asked.

"Um…"

Tylin summoned the World Tree, which was in a budding state and hadn't gotten rid of the seeds at its base.

After being summoned by Tailin, the shoots of the World Tree retracted into the seeds without saying a word, and then rolled all the way from Tailin's shoulders to Tailin's head in the posture of Newton's death.

If the consciousness of the World Tree could materialize now, it should be lying on Tailin's head to demonstrate to Joshua by 'exploding hairs'.

After all, Joshua pulled out two of the only four leaves on it yesterday.

"Well... After Mr. Qiao Xiu helped me sell the record, the World Tree has not been weakened..."

Tai Lin, the number one cat owner, should have helped her say a few words when her world tree was "fried".

It's a pity that without Qiao Xiu's help, the World Tree might not even be able to 'explode hair', and it is still weakly lodged in Tai Lin's body waiting to be eroded by the gray mist.

However, since Joshua released Tailin's first record, Tailin could feel the power that Joshua called 'the power of faith' pouring into her body every day. Lin was a hundred times better off before.

If Tai Lin and the World Tree were salted fish dying of thirst in a dry river before they met Joshua, now she was equivalent to being able to swing around a fish tank for a while or two.

Although the power of faith is not much, Tailin is still very grateful to Qiao Xiu.

"Then how long will it take to grow... a few more leaves? I mean continue to grow..."

When Qiao Xiu asked, the tree of the world, which had just sprouted its head, retracted into the seeds in an instant. This habit is really similar to that of cats who like to go to small places.

"On this one, it's probably ten to ... fifty years away."

Tai Lin gave the most conservative answer. The growth cycle of the World Tree is calculated in thousands of years, which is indeed not too long for elves who can easily live to thousands of years old.

Fifty years in Tailin's world view is almost the same as the human concept of 'it's time to go to the boss to get salary at the end of the month'.

"Fifty years should be very short for the demon family, right?"

Seeing Qiao Xiu's stiff expression, Tailin asked cautiously.

"No, let me tell you in secret, we Chaos Demons, like humans, are a race whose lifespan is calculated in ten years. Based on my recent life, I think my lifespan should be shorter than that of Ciri by your side."

Joshua glanced at Ciri who was sitting next to Tailin and said.

"I remind you to go to bed early every day, but you didn't listen!"

Of course Shirley knew that Joshua had been staying up all night lately, and it was useless for her to persuade him.

"Occupational diseases, and this body's ability to stay up late is excellent."

Joshua gave a thumbs up, although the Chaos Demon's racial talent really had nothing to boast about.

"Why is the lifespan of a Chaos Demon so short?"

This time it's Tailin's turn to find it incredible. Chaos demons belong to the most dangerous demon race in the world. It is rumored that the lifespan of sinful demons is about 5,000 to 10,000 years, but the lifespan of chaotic demons is comparable to that of humans?

"Uh...you should ask my father about this."

Qiao Xiu also thought it was a miracle that such a short-lived Chaos Demon could still rule the Demon World, but the special racial ability of 'Forbidden Demon' alone was bug enough in this world dominated by magic.

"Now let's get down to business, Tylin, you said that the World Tree needs at least ten years to grow sufficiently..."

"I...I mean grow a leaf."

Tailin interrupted Qiao Xiu's conclusion with a very guilty voice. She had hoped that he could see the towering ancient trees of the World Tree, but with the current growth progress of the World Tree, Qiao Xiu could only see the world tree. The tree has grown four or five leaves.

"Well, what if the World Tree gets more Power of Faith?"

Joshua picked up the 'Hearthstone Tavern Marketing Report' that was on the table. It was written by Mrs. Marina and would be reorganized every other week.

This report has already recorded the sales of Tai Lin's albums. Due to the lack of publicity, only 370 albums have been sold so far.

If the number of listens is doubled, it will only be 740 copies.

The power of faith of 740 people can support the tree of the world to grow two leaves within ten years. What if the number increases to one hundred thousand?

And this is only limited to the fact that these people cannot listen to Tailin's records all the time. It is already very powerful to provide the World Tree with the power of faith for an hour to half a day every day.

"I remember that the Great Elder of our clan once said that the prosperity of the World Tree is also related to the number of our clan..."

What Tailin said has already told Qiao Xiu that the more people believe in, the faster the World Tree will grow. If the number of believers exceeds one million, it is estimated that the World Tree will produce 1,000 per mu. Eight is not a problem.

Nolan is a big city with a population of close to 1.7 million, not counting the floating population. Although 1.7 million people are really not that big on Earth, but...now Nolan is still in the industrial revolution Among them, Qiao Xiu couldn't have too high demands on this new civilized society.

"I have a method that can convert half or even two-thirds of the people in this city into the nourishment of the World Tree."

Joshua said something that shocked Tailin and Ciri.

"You... you plan to sacrifice half of the people in this city?"

Ciri immediately thought of some kind of evil war-grade magic circle.

"Don't worry, I will never know such a terrible magic in my life. I mean let more people in this city hear Tailin's voice."

Qiao Xiu opened his magic net system, closed the spellcaster forum page, and presented the desktop in front of Tailin. Qiaoxiu clicked into another default application on the desktop besides the spellcaster forum.

At first, Joshua named the app 'Norlan Radio', but after careful consideration, Joshua changed it to 'Norlan's Voice'.
