Steel steam and flame

"I thought you already knew the situation here a few months ago." The voice came from the spiritual world. Cassia's attention immediately shifted. When the spiritual body opened its eyes, the body she saw a few months ago belonged to the newborn. The human form of the World Tree's will has appeared and is right next to the spiritual body.

The will of the World Tree, which originally represents countless trees, has no vitality at all. It even appears very dull, as if it can only play the role of speaking. But he did try his best to suppress his own power, in order not to have any impact and not be discovered by Monikoloa. There seems to be a reasonable explanation for the lack of quality in performance.

"I was just passing by here and taking a look at it." Cassia replied, and immediately asked, "Is this fragment of the ancient historical World Tree activated because of me? Later, Miss New World Tree, you Are you going to imprison him here?"

"The main reason is that the secondary reason is that the influence of the six red stars has caused the existing fragments to become unstable. They are always under surveillance, and the changes are dealt with after they occur. The giant whale groups are close to each other. Time is also doing the same thing, there are more fragments scattered in the sea, and there is no corresponding energy to deal with them."

"Cassia, your exploration of this fragment of the ancient historical world tree must end here. Because there is a monitoring core circulating around these fragments, and after discovering you, it immediately connected to the core point of the root network here. If you move forward, although it will not bring you a life-threatening danger, for you now, it is indeed very early. With your mental strength, no matter whether you are in active contact or passive contact, there will be no danger. Good catch. I should have said the same thing to you before your body was taken away by the Third General."

At this time, Cassia continued the careful analysis of the memories just now. The illusion caused by contact with the fragments and the reminder words of the new world tree were immediately completely analyzed.

My own mental strength cannot support me to actively connect to the root network and explore some historical information hidden in it. Even with a passive connection, days of slumber become a routine aftereffect. After running through the illusion in his head several times, he found the source of the sudden familiarity——

The slightly brighter dark red substance has indeed been seen a few years ago. The difference is that it was in an illusion before, but now it is really in the real world. It is indeed a kind of creature. In the illusion, when the main trunk of the World Tree collapsed, almost all the branches were burning and covered in flames. At that time, most of the flames were not caused by common combustion. The cause of their formation was the existence of this mold-like life form.

At this time, Cassia realized how narrow her understanding was in the past. It seemed that in his subconscious thinking, the combustion he imagined was ordinary combustion, the kind of combustion in which he picked up a lot of dead branches and leaves, lit them and then raised a flame.

At this moment, in addition to the fragment of the World Tree in front of him, combined with the fragments of the voyage experience recounted by Miss Hilary Riley, and some occasional words mentioned by Perkinz, he suddenly realized that what collapsed in ancient history was a god with a similar identity. An ancient historical world tree. Even though various materials describe it being swept by a fire, as the World Tree itself, ordinary flames, or the flames in his cognition, have the ability to burn the World Tree?

The World Tree described in ancient ruins data has several races using it as their living area on its branches and crown. Whether it is the main trunk of the World Tree or the bottom area, there are different ecological circles and races, which have survived and reproduced for a long, long time.

"Alas..." Cassia sighed with self-deprecation. It was a very simple logic. It was only now completely clear that this should not happen to him. "The tunnel connecting here will be blocked in the future to reduce the chance of it being discovered. possibility."

The New World Tree nodded, "When it's time to return here, you will notice it yourself without anyone reminding you. It is the best situation to come into contact with the fragments at that time. At this time..., even if I can Block the connection with the third general, but not all the time. This time, you don’t need to actually touch the fragments. As long as you enter the confinement circle of the tree roots, you will enter the affected range."

"This is very dangerous for you." New World Tree warned.

Cassia immediately expressed his gratitude, "Thank you." He said, and then asked his question. He will not waste such an opportunity easily. "Miss New World Tree, is the dark red substance on this fragment a living form left over from ancient history? Like dragons and giant whales, it is a What we call the second type of life has never died in history?"

"All the illusions you have seen really existed." The new World Tree Will did not answer directly, "It is a living body, but it is only now. Once it leaves the World Tree fragments, it loses its living environment. At the beginning Its emergence was originally a link that caused the emergence of the great whirlpool and the collapse of the ancient historical world tree."

"But Perkinz seems to have said that in the current environment, dragons, giant whales, and some powerful second-class creatures can still be used as a matrix to allow them to survive temporarily. Because these creatures themselves have strong energy reserves, and It is produced for the purpose of swallowing this kind of energy material. Its existence is not limited to this place, and the scattered fragments lead to it being found in many areas. It is usually dormant, the environment is suitable, or it is stimulated , it will become what you see now.”

"Excluding dragons and giant whales, this is the third remaining second type of life."

"There are still many second-type life forms still alive, but the number is completely inferior to that of dragons and giant whales, so they do not attract attention. Many second-type life forms have memories that have been passed down through the ages, even if they will be lost in history. They have forgotten a lot, but the memories that can still be left behind probably tell them that whether it is the ancient historical World Tree or the new World Tree, it will be a source of danger, right? There are still many second world trees in your mouth in the sea. Humanoid life. The giant whale group’s protection of the mainland is one of the reasons why they won’t get close, and their reluctance to get close is also the reason.”

"Thank you Miss New World Tree for the information." Cassia expressed her sincere thanks.

The will of the new world tree did not pay attention, and continued what he just said, "As for the second-type life form mold in your mouth, it has been used in several places in human history. Not including Perkins, three After humans gradually evolved into the second type of life forms on this continent, all of them have more or less come to the central area of ​​​​the forest to come into contact with my will. Many of them came for it... To be precise, they came in exchange for fragments of the ancient historical World Tree.”

"I probably keep the most fragments. The reason for exchanging these fragments is to prevent the type of mold that was discovered from losing its environmental base and dying. In fact, the content of the conversation was not much, but after a long period of time, Information, knowing what they do with this life is not difficult.”

"Smelting?" Cassia said her guess, "The light emitted by itself carries a temperature, which does not seem to be very high. It should be because it has not fully awakened, right? If the state is normal and there is no bioelectric induction force field to block the protection, The second type of life form that burns the world tree of ancient history..."

"Smelting is one of them." The reply was always emotionless and completely mechanical. "Because it was produced by burning the ancient historical world tree, and it can also be used to deal with disasters in the underground world. But the biggest role is From the fact that it is the essence of life that consumes energy bodies.”

"Do you know what a leaf on the trunk of the World Tree can be used for?" There is no doubt in the tone of the question. Cassia always feels that the new World Tree may not have fully learned the human way of speaking and thinking, but is simply imitating it. . But it is enough, because most of the time, it does not need to be imitated. This may be done to facilitate conversations with various operators in history, nothing more.

The problem is simple. Cassia has information about the World Tree in her head. Even if it is not much, "it can have many, many effects. The most intuitive explanation..., well, because one leaf can be as big as a limo put together." , and as a world tree, the main trunk is not mentioned here, but the leaves above can also contain ultimate metal components in the veins. Therefore, a leaf can have considerable weight and extremely strong strength."

"If it is used as a bulletproof material, it will be ranked first and will not be doubted or surpassed."

Praise has no effect on the will of the new world tree. Perhaps Cassia's words are not praise at all, which is one of the reasons. The appearance showed no emotion at all, and the mechanical words continued, "So being able to burn the World Tree is both its greatest advantage and its greatest flaw. However, after research, you humans have still used its advantages to do many things. You've replaced the heart with an energy conversion structure, right?"

Not understanding the meaning of the last sentence of the new world tree's will, Cassia nodded to confirm, but she immediately had a guess in her heart, "...,, detonator..."

"The effect is much more powerful than the energy conversion structure. Perhaps it will not be equal to it until you reach the last step of your life's evolution. Therefore, this fragment with mold is very dangerous for you, forcing you to fight with it. The root network connection is one of the reasons, and contact with high-energy substances, especially uranium gold after you humans extract and smelt it, instantly releases energy..."

"I understand, this is not a simple piece of information, Miss New World Tree." Cassia looked at the appearance of the World Tree standing on the top of the wreckage of the battleship and said, "Mr. Perkinz's request?"

No answer was received, and the appearance of the figure on the side quickly faded, "The pollution is on the side of the forest near the ocean, and Monikoloa sent many dragons to help clean it up. Although there are also a large number of surgeons gathered, compared to the forest In the vastness of the world, there are still areas you can go to. If your purpose this time is also to pollute, please pay attention to hiding your identity."

When the words spread, Cassia felt the new world tree leave the spiritual world. At the same time, in the tunnel network, the flames on the tree roots next to him were extinguished, the terrifying aura disappeared instantly, and the dark red light shone again on the ground that had become scorched earth and ashes.

Picking up two tactical knives, Cassia used extremely high-frequency sound wave pulses to refine the model in her head again, then turned and walked towards Cassia, who was about to shrink into a ball due to fear, but did not take a step back, "Go and eat something delicious. Bar."
