Looking around, Lin looked at the high seats with a rare serious expression and said: "Yes, this new teleportation magic is very likely to be an opportunity to restart the war between the World Trees. But this magic is not monopolized by anyone. , everyone can use it, when an unsociable pest appears, what choice will others make? To achieve the Luoshu Formation, everyone here and the four who are not present are indispensable. But if anyone If someone really raids and an indispensable number is missing, then it doesn't matter whether the number is missing two or three.──"
After running out of threatening tone, Lin continued to analyze possible developments.
"──From the perspective of the attacker, if no one stops what he does, then one day he will encounter the bottleneck faced by the two ancient majesties. By then, who else can he find to help? Break through the upper limit of the lost land.──”
Immediately afterwards, someone brought up a fact that the trees may have noticed but were unwilling to admit.
"─Besides, there are fewer and fewer World Trees in the Mystery Land. Is it a good thing? Have you ever thought that this may be breaking the container of the 'Midland' bit by bit, reducing the storage capacity. That is Said, this behavior is very likely to be an overall regression, including the World Tree, including all the creatures living in the Mysterious Land. Of course, this is just my inference. However, is this inference true? Your Majesty, who has lived longer than me, We should be able to detect clues from past experience.”
Sometimes it is a fan of the authorities, and sometimes it is just an ostrich mentality, thinking that if it is not recognized, it does not exist. But the words of the human magician exposed a fact that no one wanted to believe nakedly before their eyes. The World Trees were speechless, because this fact was like denying the grand gathering of trees fighting each other thousands of years ago. It is they who put the ceiling over their heads, not others.
From Lin's point of view, it is not difficult to understand this matter. Plants play the role of producers in the ecosystem. The fewer plants there are, the more serious environmental problems will be. When there are no plants, the environment is desertified and no vitality exists. Plants on the earth absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Could it be that the World Tree in Lost Land is the main producer of the eight powers?
Looking at the silent trees, Lin broke the deadlock and said: "Whether you only consider yourself with limited growth, or consider the future with unlimited overall growth, the choice in this matter lies in your majesty's hands. No one can help you. We decide."
"Perhaps, if you don't say these things, we don't have to think about these things at all. We can maintain the current appearance forever." McKinen complained.
Lin sneered and said: "Your Majesty, do you believe that anything is permanent? A mere magic tower can prevent all World Trees from growing in the old way. If you don't make progress and do nothing, one day, the magicians will If they have the ability and need, who can stop them from making the World Tree into magic props? Don’t think that there won’t be that day, and when that day does happen, everything will be irreversible. And like this The ending is also your Majesty’s choice, isn’t it?”
The silence this time did not last long. One of the ancients, Yggdrasil, is a world tree that has reached its upper limit. The person planning this meeting today can be said to have interests closely related to him, so he Rarely showing a tough attitude, he said: "Then the Yggdrasil coalition has been established. Is there anyone who objects?"
Fasnas, who is also an ancient, made up his mind at the right time and said: "Those who oppose it should jump out as soon as possible. I left a seed a while ago, which can fill the vacancy at any time and perfect Luo Shu."
But what will happen to the replaced World Tree? Although Fasnas did not explain it clearly, the strong meaning of threat in his words made people shudder and the atmosphere became tense.
Another cold scene, and it was not caused by himself. Lin Zheng was thinking whether he should break the murderous atmosphere created by the two ancients. Maybe this is because they have united to give a group of juniors power, and if they break the momentum they have created, they will be resented; or maybe they are too harsh with their words and have nothing to say, and they are waiting Does anyone want to help them step down?
Someone couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The attitudes and expressions of plants are elusive, and it is really difficult to be a competent admirer.
At this time, Waldwal, who was also a World Tree, relied on his familiarity with someone to interrupt and said: "Since everyone has agreed, this matter has been settled, and the specific actions will be discussed later. Then Mr. Tripwood, Could you please tell me about your third step of "Establishing the World"? The first two steps are more like making better preparations for your promotion, but after all, they are not a clear promotion method. I think everyone is more Just be concerned about that.”
Waldwo's words set the tone for all World Trees' opinions, regardless of whether they disagree or agree in their hearts. But in reality, no World Tree strongly opposes the previous decision. After weighing the pros and cons, the method proposed by this human magician is indeed the best method known at this stage, and they have no reason to object at all. They just didn't like the attitude of the two ancient ones.
Now that someone has come forward to smooth things over, the trees will not insist on returning to the original deadlock. They also looked at someone with interest, looking forward to the method he said.
When the topic returned to himself, Lin cleared his throat and said, "The last step is to 'establish the world'. What I plan to do is to establish the ninth power."
The shock brought by this simple sentence was far greater than the previous sum total. The World Trees were really dumbfounded this time and didn't know how to react.
Lin was already used to the attitude of these plants being frightened by him at every turn. So he didn't wait for anyone to answer, and continued: "According to my visits and research, the eight powers were not eight powers at the beginning, but just eight unique energies with different properties. Any one of them can Used to construct spell models, form magic, and produce supernatural effects. I don’t know when, eight concepts such as knowledge, power, authority, faith, wealth, dexterity, perception, and mystery were given to these eight types of energy. . After that, the eight Lords of Power ignited the divine fire and entered into the sequence of powerful divine power. But they are not producers, but more like rulers, or managers. As witnesses of history, I think you are aware of these things. , they all know better than me."
Many of you here have personally experienced the history that Lin mentioned, so they know more about the situation than what Lin said. But the point is, this human being was right. The so-called 'power' is a term that belongs to this era.
In the distant era when they awakened their consciousness, power was not called 'power', it was just a kind of free energy that could be absorbed and used everywhere. But there have been eight types in the past, and they are still eight types today, never more, and never less.
Waldwal's white deer incarnation made an exaggerated swallowing motion and asked: "How to do it?" Up to now, the World Trees no longer ask 'is it possible'. From what the magician said, they were only curious about how to achieve the goal he set in his vision.
"I have closely observed the three majesties of Wadwo, Lahti and Fasnas, and the reality of the worlds they are connected to. While you draw nutrients from other worlds, you will feed back a certain kind of power to the lost land. . The power fed back by the reality of each world is pure and not mixed with other kinds of powers. Moreover, the same world tree will not feed back the power of the world with the same power. Only when we reach the level of His Majesty Fasnas can we Each World Tree feeds back eight kinds of powers. So I boldly guess that if you want to open a passage to the ninth world, you must be able to feed back a new kind of power... No, new energy will do."
"This is why in the past, after I had obtained the origins of other world trees, I was unable to advance. I only made the connection to one of my worlds stronger and more stable. Because what I got was the part I already had. ? Even if all the worlds connected by the World Tree are different worlds. In this case, how to distinguish a new world and which power camp it belongs to?" Yushu asked.
Lin bluntly said: "I don't know about this yet. More research needs to be done."
"So Lord Tripwood, according to your ideas, how to add this new energy?" Yggdrasil asked.
"Let's start from two directions. One is of course to find the answer from the World Tree. The magic formation patterns that connect a new world are actually the bark patterns that naturally occur on your bodies. In other words, your Majesty, you have constructed the magic formations that connect the world tree. The core magic circle of a world is the result of following instinct. So can we study the 'why', find patterns from it, and then open up a new path beyond the existing patterns."
"What about the other direction?" Fasnas asked the most urgently.
After Lin clarified his thoughts, he replied: "When the eight pure energies are given concepts, they become the eight powers of the Lost World. And these eight powers have a universal characteristic, which is the pursuit of People will agree, but so will those who don't pursue it, whether they admit it verbally or not. For example, for example, a warrior who pursues power may not pursue knowledge, but in his heart he will also agree that 'knowledge' is of great value to fans. The importance of the earth may even lead to the pursuit of knowledge. What we are looking for is a universal value beyond these eight powers, to strengthen its beliefs, strengthen existing gods, or ignite new divine fires. , using the will of all sentient beings to attract the establishment of a new path. In this way, a two-pronged approach is used to try to establish a new power."
"Is this... really possible?" Youshu asked doubtfully.
Faced with such doubts, Lin Wei shrugged, waved his hands and said, "It is not easy for great beings like your Majesty to pursue breakthroughs. I wish I could destroy half of all life in the universe with just a snap of my fingers. The wishing gem can easily solve this problem. But unfortunately, there is no such thing. Of course, I also know that the method I think of is somewhat whimsical. But the scientific attitude is to make bold assumptions and be careful to verify. I am not even willing to try. It’s impossible to take the next step if you try.”
"Then do you have any ideas about a new universal value?" It was still Yggdrasil who asked.
After opening his mouth, Lin finally said with reservation: "This is a long-term project. Maybe we can borrow the power of the Turtle Dove Alliance to start from many aspects. But I don't have a clue in this regard."
In fact, someone is struggling whether to unleash the scourge of modern finance. This is definitely the fastest-acting...poison.
