Chapter 1,609 Seed of the World Tree
Lin actually has two World Tree seeds in his hand.
One was obtained from the ancient Fasnath. This World Tree seed comes with an alien plane sign, which means that as soon as the seed hits the ground, it will sprout and grow into a new World Tree.
The other one was obtained earlier, so early that I almost forgot about it. Obtained from the seeds given by Waldvor, the first World Tree someone saw.
In addition to promoting the opponent to advance and helping the opponent overcome the difficulties of promotion, Lin also handed over all his relevant experience. It contains the theory of the prototype of Flash Technique, even though the World Tree rooted in the earth at that time had a dismissive attitude towards Flash Technique.
Because the knowledge gained will be shared with all World Trees, Waldwal gave a certain magician a reward on behalf of other World Trees. The reward values given by all the World Trees were added up, and finally Wadwo gave a World Tree seed.
However, this seed has no signpost connecting to other alien planes. This means that after the seed is planted, when it germinates depends on the accumulation of time. There are few ways to speed up growth other than how much 'special' nutrients are available where you plant them.
It is a high probability that even after generations of guarding, the plant will never sprout. This is because the lifespan of the World Tree is too long, almost infinite, so they have enough time to see their descendants grow; this is not the case for humans.
However, don’t think that there is a concept of father-son inheritance between World Trees. The parent-generation relationship between them is not strong. And all inheritance comes from the blood, not the teachings of the parents. Basically, as long as the World Tree takes shape, the other party will be its best fertilizer.
If it weren't for the fact that the cost of generating a seed is much greater than the income from using the sprouted World Tree seedlings as fertilizer, maybe they would leave a bunch of offspring like a poison and harvest them one by one. However, the facts tell them that this is not cost-effective.
And this World Tree seed will be handed over to Lin as a reward. Rather than saying that the World Trees hope that this seed can reproduce and expand the World Tree population. It would be better to say that they handed over a share of the inheritance belonging to the World Tree to the magician.
In other words, what they hand over is knowledge, in exchange for the knowledge provided by someone. This is fair, and neither party feels they are at a disadvantage.
In fact, until today, Lin has not fully analyzed all the knowledge in the World Tree inheritance. There are some things that I really don’t understand or understand, such as the usefulness of photosynthesis to myself...
Not to mention that the World Tree seeds have another great use for magicians. That is the necessity to build the magic tower energy pool, which is the core of the strange object.
The energy pool is in danger of losing control, so most of the magic tower's power is actually used to restrain the energy pool. This is common knowledge among the magicians.
The energy pool built with the seeds of the World Tree is also in danger of losing control. Just because the roots come from plants doesn't mean it's safer. But the type of risk is different from other types of energy pools.
In the energy pool of the World Tree, what the magician wants to avoid is the awakening of consciousness in the seed, rather than the connected alien plane breaking the boundary between the two worlds, causing the two planes to destroy each other, or one of them to devour the other. .
Don't look at the latter situation as if it can be classified among the benefits. Not to mention the side that is devoured, even if it is the side that is devoured, the entire world will suffer huge changes, and the creatures living on it will inevitably be affected.
When this soul that was supposed to grow into the World Tree gained enough knowledge from inheritance, it was shocked to realize that it was being used as a battery. Don't think she'll quickly understand and accept the situation. Destruction and loss of control are inevitable consequences in history books.
But just like the guardians born from the purple stone, there are those like Lupita who hope to destroy the entire group under her protection, and there are also those like Ada who will consider the heavenly beings on the floating island and ignore the opposition of everyone. , choose to join the WTO and restart communication with humans.
So in the seed-shaped energy pool of the World Tree, when the consciousness in it is revived, will there really be only bad endings and no good endings?
Lin believes that such a conclusion is biased. Just like the news back home, they always report on cases of young people successfully starting their own businesses and how much money they made.
But it is not said that among all the young entrepreneurs, 90% are losers, and more than half are in debt. Those who succeed are rare, and many of them just don't lose money instead of making money.
Selectively revealing the truth is even more clever than Brother Wei's so-called deception in Mr. Jin's The Deer and the Cauldron. Because I didn’t tell any lies, I can stand the test. The unsaid part can be excused as ignorance. Who can prove that this person has bad intentions?
Therefore, Lin believes that there is a clue to awakening the consciousness in the seed-shaped energy pool of the World Tree.
Just say that among the existing magic towers in the Lost Land, is it true that there are no tower spirits with the same level of consciousness as the guardians? The official statement is no. Even for things like the Tower Spirit, the official statement is vague.
But every magic tower has its own secrets, and even as a tower owner, you may not be able to understand everything. Some are secrets left by the founder of the tower, and some are left by successors during the expansion. These secrets may not necessarily be included in the inheritance of the magic tower.
If the tower owner dies unexpectedly, it will be easier to lose some secret information without written records. So the "no" here means true or false, or even pretending not to exist. This is very interesting.
However, Lin didn't need other magic towers for reference. He had seen enough examples and had done research himself. If it weren't for the fact that the Twin Towers of the Gate must be built on both sides of the Abyss Gate to form a cycle and balance, Lin even thought of planting the World Tree seeds directly on one side.
Anyway, whether the abyss connects to the Mysterious Land, or the Mysterious Land connects to the Abyss, there must be an energy tide that can be utilized by the World Tree in this naturally formed alien plane channel.
Perhaps because the connection between the Lost Land and the Abyss is too close, the tidal difference is not large, but it should not be a big problem to promote the seeds of the World Tree to germinate.
But will doing so affect the re-established and dredged Midi veins? Lin wasn't going to take the risk.
As for planting the World Tree on the other side of the abyss, considering that there are no examples of the World Tree growing in the abyss, will doing so cause any unexpected changes? Someone doesn’t want his quest line to be branched out by him again, that would be too tiring.
Then there are various trees on both sides of the door? This opinion was rejected by myself at the first opportunity. There are no examples of twins or symbiosis in the World Tree. Their nature will dominate and plunder everything within the spread of the root system.
If there are two World Trees in such a range, one must be dead and the other alive. This fact has been certified by the elders at the high-level meeting. Lin did not need to expend the scarce resources at hand to prove such a thing.
Precisely because it didn't make sense to use the World Tree as a guardian, Lin came up with the idea of using a magic tower to suppress both sides of the Abyss Gate.
Although the World Tree cannot be used to guard the gate of the abyss, the consciousness from the World Tree's inheritance should be able to come in handy. So when it came to the successor to the Twin Towers of Gates, Lin didn't think much about it and just focused on the World Tree seeds at hand.
Anyway, the energy pool of the magic tower also needs this level of rare items. Use the seeds of the World Tree and let go of some restrictions to cultivate her consciousness. And with the help of programming language, controlling the magic tower shouldn't be a big problem.
As for whether it will happen like Frankenstein or RoboCop, where the consciousness of a human is awakened, only to find that he is not a human. As a result, they fall into conflicts of self-identity, and even lead to madness and destruction. This possibility is not impossible.
Those magic towers that were rumored to have been drowned by awakening consciousness have probably experienced the baptism of these crazy consciousnesses. According to the nature of the relationship between magicians and summoned objects, it is estimated that both parties will not be too happy, so it is not surprising that one party loses control.
And he was backed by twenty-five World Tree elders. The little baby who has just awakened consciousness will probably be suppressed even if he has any other thoughts.
If there had been good guidance at the beginning, we would not have ended up in a lose-lose situation. At this point, Lin is quite confident. Although I am not good at educating or making friends, I still have a way of coaxing such a giant baby.
In a word, it is deception, deception with all your strength!
And the whole thing is beneficial to Yggdrasil, and they don't have to worry about becoming accomplices to ensure that there is no possibility of things going astray.
As expected, the wave of thoughts separated a certain magician's exploration, but as if there was no cover, they were running around on the first floor of the sub-dimensional tower in the dimensional gap, above the high-seat meeting. These wave of thoughts are so dense that they almost condense into physical existence. You can imagine how frequent the discussions among the World Trees are.
In fact, Lin, who has mastered the inheritance of World Tree, also knows that this is not a special encryption method, it is just a language. 'World Tree Language'.
If the language of the dragon points directly to the root of the spell, the language of the world tree is the essence of everything. The former also has magician studies and even proficiency. I'm afraid not many people even know about the latter, let alone understand it.
It is said to be a language, but in fact, the logic of World Tree Language is completely different from that of ordinary languages. Therefore, although the translation program someone prepared for himself can translate multiple languages in real time, it is of no use at this time.
If you want to know what the World Trees are communicating, Lin still has a way to translate it. But before he could think of translation, the World Trees had already reached a conclusion.
They did not use any explicit or implicit method, but spoke one by one. Starting from the ancient Yggdrasil who was at the top of the list, the Eight Fruit Tree shook its branches and said at the same time: "Okay."
A series of "yes" sounds, each sound represents the agreement of a world tree. A total of twenty-five sounds, which means that while they support the magician's decision, they will also provide substantial help when necessary.
In fact, at the beginning, Lin did not grasp the way to use the seeds of the world tree to get the support of the elders. What should I do if I fall out because of this?
But now it seems that the results are quite good. As long as there are no mistakes in execution and the target results can be achieved, everything will be perfect. Even if you want to use the Twin Towers of the Gate to do some private work, building a deep space telescope is not a problem.
It was the humans, whose thinking speed was not as fast as the elders here, who reacted at this time. The old emperor looked at the thing in the hands of a certain magician and asked: "Is this... the seed of the World Tree?"
