Chapter 416 The World Tree is alive, can you believe it?
Central Ecological Park.
That is the ultimate purpose of this trip!
When a colossal tree, radiating a soft glow, came into view, everyone stopped in their tracks.
The air was filled with a fresh and abundant sense of life.
Thorin's mouth was agape, big enough to fit a fist.
He rubbed his eyes and blinked hard a few times.
"Oh My God……"
The dwarf elder's voice was rough and trembling with disbelief.
"Your Great Xia also has something called a World Tree?"
Lin Mo shook his head.
"No, this is the World Tree seed I bought from the elves."
"That's impossible!"
Kyle exclaimed in surprise, a rare hint of emotion appearing on his proud face.
"The Elf World Tree grows slowly. Even with the nourishment of energy crystal veins, it could never grow this fast!"
The elves, who lived alongside the World Tree, stood frozen in place.
Elder Muyu's lips trembled; in his eyes, it was as if he had witnessed a miracle.
No one knows the World Tree better than the elves.
This isn't magic!
That's not scientifically sound either!
Elder Muyu's body trembled slightly as he took a step and walked towards the giant tree.
His eyes were filled with utter shock.
The trunk of the World Tree, with a diameter of 100 meters, is a clear sign of maturity.
He remembered that it had only been a few months since the first World Tree was handed over to Great Xia.
Now, they're all this big?
He couldn't believe it and decided to ask him himself.
He raised his hand, his fingertips shimmering with emerald light.
He murmured in the ancient Elvish language.
The wood-elemental spirit's life-giving magic is infused into the giant tree.
A miracle occurred.
On the trunk of the giant tree, the layers of bark began to slowly undulate.
The interwoven lines and twisted knots eventually converged into a youthful face.
Its outline is distinct, with a touch of immaturity, yet it seems to exude an endless sense of antiquity belonging to the World Tree species.
They are truly living fossils of Terra.
The eyes on her face slowly opened.
With a hint of bewilderment, he glanced at the crowd in front of him.
Lin Mo was overjoyed at the sight.
It finally appeared.
The Great Xia used nuclear fission technology to feed the World Tree, and no one knows if there will be any side effects.
What if the World Tree looks good, but is actually struggling painfully, sacrificing its lifespan for rapid growth?
Like pulling up seedlings to help them grow.
If that happens, all the cities that Great Xia builds on the ground and in the trees will be doomed if the World Tree suddenly withers!
To prevent this from happening, the Great Xia think tank suggested sending the elves to revitalize the World Tree and assess the situation.
This diplomatic trip has many objectives, and it is certainly not simply about taking the various ethnic groups of Terra to eat, drink, and have fun, or to learn about Great Xia.
There's a saying that goes, "What's free is often the most expensive."
The benefits that this revitalization brought to Great Xia far exceeded the entire expenditure of the mission.
At this moment, the researchers who were constantly caring for and monitoring the growth of the World Tree were all shocked.
Can you believe that such a huge plant they raised actually survived?!
"Oh my god, the data, where's the data?!"
"Quick, record it! Record everything!"
"He's alive! He actually survived!"
Several scientists wearing glasses were at a loss.
Their fingertips tapped rapidly on the screen.
Some people were so excited that they spilled coffee on their white coats without even realizing it.
This is an unprecedented miracle of life!
At this moment, on the main branch of the World Tree, the bark that simulated the face of a young man relaxed his brows and eyes.
A surge of mental energy directly entered everyone's minds.
His voice was dry, yet it carried an indescribable sense of comfort.
"Ah...that feels so good..."
Sound is transmitted through consciousness; although people cannot understand the language, they can still understand its meaning.
Elder Muyu and the others were astonished.
I never expected the World Tree to say that when it appeared.
What did the Bactrians do to it?
The World Tree's gaze fell upon Elder Muyu.
The mental fluctuations came again.
"Was it...you who woke me up?"
Elder Muyu suppressed the shock in his heart and replied:
"Yes, I woke you up."
He then asked:
"Your growth rate is amazing... Can you tell me why you can grow so fast?"
The World Tree blinked, its mental fluctuations carrying a hint of innocence.
"You're eating well!"
"These people from Great Xia feed me well every day, so naturally I grow very fast."
It looked around as if sensing something.
I really like this world.
The branches of the World Tree swayed gently.
"Would you like to eat my fruit?"
As he spoke, several thick branches slowly extended towards the dome.
It seemed as if it wanted to offer him the fruits of life that grew on its canopy.
Plants embody the spirit of giving.
It's different from the selfish thinking of animals.
They love it when animals eat their fruit.
Even if the animals break their own branches or even cut them down, they don't complain at all.
This is a matter of plant ideology.
The only interest of plants is reproduction.
To this end, they made the fruit delicious, attracting animals to take it to other places to grow.
At that moment, the branches of the World Tree suddenly stopped.
His emotions were flustered, tinged with a hint of apology.
"I'm sorry... my fruit is on the ground... I can't bring it down."
Elder Muyu looked up.
He saw thick branches piercing through the dome of the underground city.
The hole in the dome is nearly a hundred meters in diameter and is completely filled with branches.
No wonder the fruit couldn't be brought down.
He waved his hand, his voice gentle.
"No need, I don't want to eat your fruit."
A hint of disappointment appeared in the World Tree's eyes.
"All right."
Then it asked:
Are you taking me back to Terra?
Before Elder Muyu could answer, the World Tree immediately sent another message.
"I don't want to go back..."
"I want to put down roots on Earth and grow here."
"I am very happy to be able to reproduce on a new planet."
Even when the World Tree is not active, it is still conscious.
From the seed, it can perceive the world from the plant's perspective.
Therefore, it's not surprising that it knows about Earth and Terra.
Elder Muyu quickly shook his head.
"No, I'm not here to take you back."
The World Tree showed a clear expression of relief.
Plants do not have the capacity to refuse.
If Elder Muyu says he wants to take it away, it will obey even though it is unwilling.
The elves can make the World Tree move on its own, since it has already come to life.
The roots can become legs and thus move.
Elder Muyu then looked at Lin Mo.
"Mr. Lin, what have you been feeding the World Tree?"
His tone was filled with disbelief.
"If it were an energy crystal, it would be absolutely impossible for the World Tree to develop at this speed."
"Furthermore, you have not purchased a large quantity of energy crystals from the various races of Terra."
He was incredibly curious and simply couldn't understand how the Great Xia Dynasty had managed to do it.
