"I'll talk about the conclusion first. I'm willing to tell you all the results of my research with the World Tree, Walder. Although I don't think you'll dare to use it. "
In the meeting room known as the White Hall, there were many elves of all ages. The kingdom's Prime Minister, Luca Titov, went straight to the point and asked about the advancement of the World Tree. Lin did not keep them in suspense and directly expressed his attitude.
However, the elves did not agree with his conclusion, especially the last sentence. Seeing their expressions, Lin only smiled and explained, "That's right.
"In the past, there was a saying that the advancement of the World Tree was built on the ashes of other World Trees. That's not wrong, but let me give an example. If the advancement of the World Tree was compared to a trip, everyone would want to know the map of the destination before the trip, and even the dangerous places and safe paths that they might pass through during the trip to ensure that their trip would be smooth. The old method of advancement is to seize the maps of other World Trees and make up for the unknown parts to ensure their success. "
Lin picked up the glass of water on the table and took a sip while observing. Some elves were dissatisfied with such a blatant statement, while others did not care. However, it could be seen from their behavior that they were not completely ignorant of this situation.
After understanding the elves' attitudes, Lin dared to continue speaking. After all, sometimes, telling the 'truth' without caring about anything might not be accepted by others. Thus, not to mention others, he had also encountered many examples of falling out. Especially those superiors who loved face and could not get out of the embarrassing situation. They would vividly teach him what it meant to have more power than the truth.
"What I just said was the condition for the World Tree's advancement in the past." Lin said, and after drawing everyone's attention back, he continued, "The research that Walder and I collaborated on is only to find a method. It was the same metaphor that allowed people to follow the unknown journey ahead, carefully fumbling about, and then taking each step of their own. There's no need to snatch the map from others to advance. However, it's only to provide a method. "
The buzzing of the elves' private discussions never stopped, and Luca Titov, on behalf of the elves, asked a certain person with reservations, "Your Excellency's method of providing does not seem to be guaranteed to succeed."
"Of course. For a journey to be successful, a map was not enough. They also needed sufficient supplies. In the case of the World Tree, it needed to have enough accumulation. Only when you have the strength to advance but don't know where to go will the method I provide be useful. But if he didn't have the strength, then it would be terrible. Based on what I've seen, the advancement of the World Tree is a very risky thing, and it's not something that can be stopped at will. When they were unable to withstand the storm from the higher dimensions, if they were lucky, the World Tree would at most be destroyed. If they were extremely lucky, there would still be some remnants left, and everything could be restarted. However, if they were unlucky, the damage would spread beyond the World Tree. At this time, you can only pray that you are not living under a tree. "
"Then what do we need to do to be considered ready?" an elder asked.
Lin chuckled at this question and said, "That's the most interesting part. I don't know how to be ready. " Spreading out his hands, a certain someone put on an annoying expression and said, "Back then, the direction of my research didn't care if the World Tree was ready or not. I only stayed in the Wood Elf Tribe for more than a year, and it was impossible for me to do much research. Walder said that he wanted to try, so I helped him. Reality proved that his accumulation was not enough. During the advancement process, there was a considerable crisis. To be able to pass safely, it can only be said that he was very lucky. I don't know if you noticed, but other than Walder, only one other World Tree tried to advance recently and was lucky enough to succeed. After that, there was no other news. "
The advancement of the World Tree was a big deal for the Bewildering Land. As long as one's strength reached a certain level, they would be able to feel the changes in the power between heaven and earth.
"Perhaps this is just because the information was concealed, isn't it?" another elder asked. Although his expression was amiable and his voice was steady and powerful, his words were harsh.
Lin shrugged his shoulders in response. He was just about to open his mouth to explain, but when he saw that there were so many people around him, he hesitated. After a while, he said something else to his students, "Don't you all want to walk around the courtyard of the palace? You can take this opportunity to walk around. "
The blonde girl in her rebellious phase seemed to be deliberately singing a different tune. "But we also want to hear it."
"Go away, what are you listening to? You're already dozing off after listening to my lecture for three minutes. How much do you want to hear it? I don't believe it. "With that, he turned his head and asked," Can you allow my students to tour the courtyard of the palace? It's best if someone can take them around and introduce them so that they don't accidentally go to places they shouldn't go. "
The sudden request of course attracted the attention of the elves. Although the request was strange, they still straightened their ears, wanting to continue listening. However, a certain person's expression was very calm, and he did not intend to speak. Some were puzzled, while others were about to become impatient. Li Ena said, "Let me take you around. There are many strange flowers in the palace that can't be seen in the outside world. What the old men are saying must be very boring. I don't have the patience to listen to it. "
With the first person agreeing, the other elves also realized that this meant that they were going to clear out the place. The prime minister of the kingdom nodded at everybody. The rest of the elves who knew that their status was not high enough followed the female elf sword dancer and the two magic apprentices and left.
However, the armed elves who had been standing at the outermost edge retreated to the outside of the conference room and drew their weapons before they closed all the doors and windows of the conference room. Judging from their posture, not only were they guarding against other people's inquiries, but they were also clearly warning a certain someone that the five hundred axemen were behind the door and not to mess around.
When more than half of the people in the conference room were gone, Lin did not continue to put on airs. Instead, he directly talked about the advancement of the second World Tree, Zoriana, a few months ago.
Originally, a certain person had colluded with a certain tree. After completing the research and luckily succeeding in the advancement, he had planned to sell the results of the research for a good price. Although the number of interested customers was very small, the wealth of each of them was unimaginable to the people of the secular world.
On one hand, it was because Walder had paid a very valuable reward to a certain person, including a living seed of the World Tree. Apart from wanting to recoup some of the costs he had paid from the other World Trees, he also wanted to see other people suffer the same fate as him.
Don't think that the advancement of the World Tree was all about benefits. Many of the wood elves were implicated by Wadewo and died without a chance to revive. Secondly, although Walder's rank had increased, his overall strength had not improved. This was because he had been too forceful. Not only had his range of influence shrunk, but his long-term reserves of authority had also almost been exhausted.
Perhaps he was now more capable of development and would not hit a bottleneck as quickly as before. However, his current miserable state made Walder want to find a few people who were in the same boat as him.
He had thought that after seeing the success of a certain tree, other trees would rush to his door and let him take advantage of them. However, it turned out that a certain person had underestimated the patience of plants. For a long time, no one took Wadwo's success seriously.
In the end, Walder went to a certain person to ask for help. At that time, Lin and the others had already left the wood elf tribe for quite some time. Perhaps a certain person could not do anything about things that were too troublesome. But when it came to business techniques, as a transmigrator from the 21st century, he could easily come up with some business promotion techniques.
After a series of suggestions, Walder chose the sales method of enjoying first and then paying later. This was considering that the other World Trees might have doubts about the method of advancement. If Walder was the only example, it would not be enough to make the other trees make up their minds. Thus, the best way was to add a few more examples to increase the credibility.
The World Tree that belonged to the same generation as Walder, Zoriana was his target. Of course, after a period of coaxing, the other party reluctantly agreed.
With the cooperation of the two World Trees, all the necessary calculations were completed very quickly. Because of his previous experience, Walder did not hold back and explained the dangers that he might encounter and thought of some ways to deal with them.
The process of World Tree Zoriana's advancement was much smoother than Walder's. Compared to plundering other World Trees to complete the advancement process, there were many more twists and turns. However, Zoriana's success told all the people or trees that this path was feasible.
However, what really attracted the attention of all the high-ranking members of the Turtledove Alliance, including the ancient World Tree Fasnath, who had survived since ancient times and claimed to have witnessed the initial Great War of Gods and Demons in the Mystic Land, was not the method of the World Tree's advancement, but the effects of the advancement.
At this point, a certain person seemed to want to leave some suspense and stopped talking. He picked up the cup and drank water. The old elves who were listening were somewhat glad that the group of young people left first. Because these words were not serious, it was actually nothing. However, it was very serious, after all, it was related to the strategic layout of the World Trees. These things were not suitable for too many people to know.
However, he still had to ask the question that was left hanging by a certain someone. Luca Titov looked helplessly at his colleagues and could only ask, "May I ask what the effects of the World Tree's advancement are? Why did the ancient World Tree Fasnath appear? "
The ancient World Tree Fasnath, the last protector of the former Elven Empire. To this day, he still grew steadily in the territory of the human empire, sheltering a self-governing territory of the wood elves. For this reason, the Elven Empire even conferred a title to a World Tree as the legal basis for its independence and self-governance. They were just short of saying that they could do nothing about this place.
The reason why the ancient World Tree paid attention was: "If the advancement of the World Tree is related to the advancement of the entire Mystic Land, what would you think?"
