The world tree needs tree keepers. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

So when Tesla wanted to leave here and hand over the responsibility of tree guardian to new people, he started a series of procedures to let World Tree automatically select qualified people from it.

Many candidates came to Tesla, and in the end there were only three people who were qualified to eat the fruits, and Alex was the third person.

“Am I the third person?” Alex asked.

“Yes!”

“How are the two people in front?”

“They proposed new ideas and development directions. Unfortunately, they could not develop in the budding state because of insufficient energy, or there were loopholes in the energy cycle system, and the power consumption loss was too great. Once it failed, as a new branch They will wither and die, and they will no longer exist in this World Tree.”

After listening to Tesla’s words, Alex finally understood that this was a moment of life and death for him. Once he made the wrong step, not only would he die, but the universe he was in would cease to exist.

Alex put his hand on the trunk of the World Tree, closed his eyes and sank into his mind to sense the universe he was in. He immediately saw the inside of the entire tree, first he saw the branches and veins of the tree, and then he saw the tree’s cells, and then saw the universe that makes up cells.

According to the information obtained by eating the fruit, it can be known that every three thousand small universes surround one universe, every three thousand universes surround one large universe, and every three thousand large universes surround one ultimate universe, and every three thousand ultimate universes form A cell of the world tree.

After locking onto the universe he was in, he saw people he was familiar with, including his parents, siblings, relatives and friends, and other people he knew and didn’t know. They were all busy and living peacefully without knowing anything.

“Have you thought it through?” Tesla asked softly next to him: “How can you find a way to develop different branches of civilization in your universe. This will then affect the world tree and continue to develop.”

“I’ve thought about it!”

“Oh? What method?”

“You are a tree protector, so you should know what the moon demon relies on to survive, right?” Alex closed his eyes tightly and did not leave his hands from the tree trunk. While observing the people on earth. While explaining to Tesla: “As species that invaded the World Tree, they themselves cannot directly absorb the energy of the universe. However, they can refine raw materials into the energy they need. There is even a small part leaked out and became A source of mysterious power.”

Tesla touched his mustache and somewhat understood what Alex was talking about. He knew the mysterious power referred to in that world. In fact, it comes from the crystal energy contained in the moon. As for the crystals on the moon, they are actually the diamond-shaped crystals on the forehead of the Moon Demon. When the Moon Demon dies, he will leave the crystal behind.

Each crystal possesses huge energy, which was transformed by the Moon Demon when he devoured human souls during his lifetime. If you look at it from this perspective, Alex has indeed found a path, a path that can have endless energy.

That is the human soul!

The soul itself cannot be used directly as energy. However, it can be used as raw material and processed into huge energy. Human reproduction is endless, and many people die and are born every year. If the soul can also be used as a source of energy, there will be no possibility of exhaustion.

But there is still a big problem here. A huge problem exists! Before this, no one had thought of using human souls as a source of energy.

“Your idea is excellent, but I’m not very optimistic about it! You don’t know, right? If you want to deeply process the soul and turn it into energy, you must have a very high-end utensil! Or it can be called a tool. When the Shinto civilization developed to the end, they were also able to directly process souls into energy, but that was only possible if they possessed godhead.”

While pacing, Tesla said: “If you use Shinto methods to cultivate the godhead, then your branch is no different from the Shinto branch. This will not be recognized by the World Tree. If you don’t If you use Shinto methods, you will be stuck in the initial stage, and it will be impossible to refine your soul. Even the branch of scientific and technological civilization I established has not been able to reach this level so far!”

Finally, he concluded: “So, your step is too big! It is not realistic enough!”

Alex did not appear panicked after hearing this, but smiled: “I also know that the beginning of any civilization is very important. If it cannot develop at the beginning, then no matter how beautiful the prospect is, it will be in vain. Just like technological civilization. , it also needs oil, natural gas, and nuclear energy as a transition to be able to develop. Presumably, these resources were also buried by you in the first place.”

Tesla nodded, acknowledging Alex’s guess.

“In the world before my rebirth, I once came into contact with a fantasy novel that described a civilization. This civilization was called rune technology. It looked very scientific, but it failed to explain the runes. Where does the energy for technology come from?”

The more Alex talked, the more excited he became. He said loudly: “I have vaguely guessed it until here! The energy of rune technology actually comes from human beings themselves, which is human spiritual power, or in other words, the soul is used as fuel. !”

When Tesla heard this, he couldn’t help but say: “But you haven’t yet explained how to make human society go beyond the first few steps before it can have the energy to refine the soul!”

Alex opened his eyes, looked at Tesla and said with a half-smile: “Actually, you already know how to solve this problem, but you have never started to implement it, but you want to wait for us candidates to think of it ourselves!”

“Oh? How do you say this?”

Tesla also smiled. He was really smiling. Someone finally understood the hint he left. After the development of scientific and technological civilization reached its peak, he was already thinking about how to develop next. However, at that time, he had already decided to break away from the World Tree and relieve himself of the responsibility of “Tree Guardian”.

So after carrying out the candidate plan, he purposely interfered with the selection process. All candidates would encounter the content he set during their journey, so as to prompt these candidates to finally take a new path. He cannot tell the candidate directly. As for the tips given, most of them are vague.

But even if you do this, not many people can understand it.

Fortunately, Alex reacted quickly. After entering this space, he has been thinking about Tesla’s purpose. And what Tesla will do. And think of it in the game. When doing tasks, there will always be some clues. Whether it’s a manuscript, a key code, or something else. He carefully considers the meaning of these things.

When everything was clearly displayed in front of his eyes, one special thing stood out, and that was the Moon Demon Diamond Crystal!

With such a crystal in his hand, Alex didn’t think it was obtained by chance. But it has a special meaning. He and Valentina were able to travel through the first space and enter the second space, relying on the energy of the Moon Demon Crystal. If every step he took was set by Tesla, and the crystals were just used as props, there would be no need to go to such trouble.

After realizing the special features of the Moon Demon Crystal, Alex focused his mental energy on the crystal and began to study its function carefully. soon. He came to a conclusion: “The crystal is the tool used by the Moon Demon to refine human souls! It is equivalent to the godhead, but it is not the godhead!”

It is a semi-living substance!

When the Moon Demon dies, his body will decay and return to heaven and earth, but the crystal will be destroyed due to its own special properties. It can remain active and continuously radiate mysterious energy until its own energy is exhausted.

“Spar!”

Alex used his mind to control the crystal to float in front of the two of them. The crystal was emitting waves of fluctuations. Originally, Alex couldn’t see these fluctuations, but after eating the fruit, he gained power comparable to that of a god. Whether it’s divine power or magic, or forming formations and technology, there are no secrets in his eyes.

“Very good, you have discovered the effect of crystals.” Tesla nodded and praised: “Then what are you going to do? If you want to refine soul energy through crystals, you can try to design an energy circulation system. See Is it acceptable to see the World Tree?”

At this point, Tesla still did not reveal the mystery, but let Alex explore and try. This attempt is not without cost. Every change made by Alex will touch the basic rules of the universe. Once the change is too big and the energy circulation system is defective, it will naturally be judged to have failed by the World Tree.

These key points were already very clear when Alex ate the fruit. He did not make adjustments immediately, but simulated in his own mental space, trying to design a perfect energy circulation system.

In the spiritual space, the crystal appeared in Alex’s hand.

Now Alex has been able to project himself into the mental space and have his own mental body. Since eating the fruit, the mental space has received a huge amount of energy, forming a real space, a space as vast as a galaxy. .

In this space, he can do the same thing as the Creator, and can create any object or life at will.

As long as these things follow reasonable logical laws and there are no big loopholes in their own energy and material cycles, then they can truly exist.

In order to practice his skills, Alex did not immediately transform the crystal, but looked into the distance. In his sight, fertile land appeared, green life grew rapidly, and then mountains rose, clouds and mist rose, and lightning appeared. Finally, various animals and plants appeared out of thin air, some of which looked similar to life on earth, while others were imaginary creatures.

In one thought, the time in the entire space seemed to be set forward by tens of millions of years. The earth and sky were changing rapidly, and life on the earth was evolving. All this takes place on a circular piece of land suspended in the void, with the sun, moon and stars revolving around it.

“Well, I probably have some skills!” Alex thought to himself. Things in the space took a long time, but for him, it was only a matter of a minute or two.

“Let’s see what this crystal does next!”

He looked at the crystal in his hand. Under his gaze, the crystal gradually transformed into a sparkling seed. A tangible and insubstantial seed, he flew into the sky, looking down at the saucer-shaped continent, looking for a suitable target.

Finally, he chose an animal that looked smarter. With a snap of his fingers, the seed flew into the body of one of the animals.

At this time, Tesla suddenly appeared in this space. He looked at the world with great interest and said, “It’s a pretty good space. It seems that you have completely mastered your abilities.”

He paused and continued: “But why did you turn that crystal into a seed?”

Alex smiled slightly and said, “You’ll find out when you read on!”

After saying that, the time in the space passed quickly, but the two of them did not change at all, they were like eternal existences.

When a thought arises, thousands of mountains and rivers change; when a thought disappears, the sea changes.

After countless eras, the animals implanted with seeds continued to reproduce. In the eyes of the two of them, one seed turned into countless seeds, silently silent in the body of that animal. When one branch of this animal inadvertently received the stimulation of seeds and evolved into more advanced life, intelligent species appeared.

A new kind of intelligent life rules this space. Each of them has a diamond-shaped crystal on their forehead, just like the moon demon, but they are not the moon demon. At first, like human beings, they passed from primitive society to slave society, and then entered feudal society and capitalist society. UU reading www. uukanshu.net

In this world, there is no buried oil and natural gas, and they cannot use other energy sources to promote social development. Because Alex doesn’t want them to be too biased towards technological civilization, whenever the social development trajectory deviates too far, he will intervene and bring down natural disasters to destroy the initially established sprouts of technological civilization.

Several times in a row, it ended like this.

When he saw this, Tesla frowned and said: “If you continue to develop like this, there is no way to obtain a large amount of soul materials to build the civilized society you want! Even if it is successfully established, it is just equivalent to copying. There is a social civilization for creatures like the Moon Demon, but you have no way to provide high-quality souls for them to develop!”

Alex shook his head and said: “No! After these few experiments, I already know what to do! There is no need to refine energy by devouring the souls of other high-level beings, they themselves have this energy! ”

As he spoke, Alex reached out and pointed, and one of the intelligent beings received a revelation and possessed some kind of cultivation technique. After practicing, this kind of intelligent life has gained more powerful power. Not only that, their own souls have also changed.
