Of course, his knowledge of the Tree of Life totem didn't originate from his interest in occultism, but from the classic anime, Evangelion. It included obscure knowledge such as the Dead Sea Ancient Scroll. Then, he read some specious interpretations. The more he read, the more confused he became. In the end, he only felt that he didn't understand it, but he didn't gain anything.
But he never thought that he would see something similar after coming to the Lost Land. And the existence that displayed it could definitely be considered a top-notch sequence in the Lost Land.
On Earth, the so-called knowledge of the occult was a self-justifying knowledge. For those who believed it, it was true; for those who didn't believe it, it was bullsh * t. It wasn't like mathematics, where 1 was 1 and 2 was 2. It was the same no matter who it was.
So, there were many versions of the Kabbalah Tree of Life in Earth's history, but the general idea was similar. Ten Source Substances, 22 channels, blah, blah, blah, blah.
On the other hand, the magic formation that Fasnus had displayed actually only had eight Origin Substances, and the channels were all messy and disorderly. There were no less than 100 channels, but the main part seemed to only have 16.
And in the center of each Source Substance was the world bubble that the World Tree was connected to. Surrounding this world bubble, a circular magic array formed a half-closed state. In addition to suppressing the energy that was seeping into the Lost Land, it also continuously converted it into nutrients that the World Tree could use. But the World Tree could only take a portion. The rest would overflow and be converted into some kind of authority.
The scene in front of him explained very well why the Lost Land had eight kinds of authority as the mysterious power that drove the world, instead of seven or nine. And the reason why Fasnath couldn't make any progress was also reflected in this magic array.
Compared to Wadwal's core magic array, which connected two worlds, the core magic array wasn't closed as a whole. He left an interface in preparation to connect to another small magic array that covered the world bubble.
All the efforts of the World Tree in the accumulation process were to confirm the next world that it was going to connect to. And to cooperate with that world to avoid the destruction caused by the two worlds coming into contact with each other, as well as to absorb the energy of that world.
To put it simply, after the faucet and sink were completed, the water valve could be opened to officially supply water. If this part was not done properly, the World Tree would act like a safety switch. Before the other world could destroy the Labyrinth, the World Tree would be destroyed and the connection between the two worlds would be severed. Everything would return to normal.
However, the core magic array of Fasnath, which contained eight small magic arrays, was completely locked. It had no ports that could extend out. Even if he wanted to forcefully open it, he would have to worry about the fragile balance of the magic array that had already been established. It could self-destruct at any time.
The reason why he displayed the core magic array was because he wanted to adjust and modify his core after gaining some insights from the data just now. He didn't care if there was an outsider beside him. Or rather, Sinarth believed that his core was not something that ordinary people could read.
Of course, Lin Li was not an ordinary person. Although the scene in front of him was more complicated than any spell model he had ever seen, and even more detailed than the magic array patterns on his Dream Tower, it was not to the extent that he could not decipher it. In fact, the moment Fasnass displayed it, this image was branded into someone's mind. If the World Tree wanted to keep it a secret, it would have to kill him.
However, Lin Li was not an ordinary person. Mabel, who was also in this space, was … Actually, this dark elf was not an ordinary person either. However, she was not qualified to look directly at everything in front of her.
She did not try to decipher the giant magic array before her. She did not even know what it was before her eyes. Mabel just looked at it and then had a splitting headache. She spat out a mouthful of blood. Her body, which had just been healed by Fasnath, instantly fell into a state of serious injury.
Sensing the abnormal life signs of the female dark elf behind him, Lin Li stopped studying the magic array in front of him. He turned around and cast a Sleep spell, sending her to sleep. Originally, with the magic resistance of elven druids, an apprentice-level Sleep spell would not be effective. However, Mabel's weakness allowed this spiritual-type spell to enter and successfully hypnotize her.
Because the process of calculation was interrupted, Lin Li turned back and looked at the magic array in front of him. However, he did not feel the same as before. At this moment, he remembered something else. Judging from the core magic array, the reason why Fasnass could not reach the ninth world was because of him. Then why did Wadwal's advancement give him the illusion that he could break through?
At this moment, the theory of feng shui in Earth's metaphysics and the theory of the earth's veins appeared in his mind. If the World Tree had such a huge influence on the maze, then the location of the World Tree should also be the key.
Unfortunately, he only knew the location of the World Tree Wadwal and the World Tree Lahti of the Paiat Haimei Kingdom. In the Guevana Empire, the location of the World Tree Yuktrasir was not a secret, because it had been enfeoffed by the emperor and became a territory of the empire. In addition, today's visit to the underground world for the first time, the location of the World Tree Fasnass.
There were only four trees. Compared to the total of more than 20 World Trees, it was not enough to see anything.
Giving up on thinking in this direction, Lin Li looked back at Fasnass, who was modifying his magic array. In the last event in his dream, Fasnass, who had also appeared in an integrated magic array, had actually only revealed a small part of himself.
However, Wadwal and Lahti's strange tumor-shaped magic array and its high efficiency of conversion had been used by the other World Trees as a reference and modified their own actions. Fasnass was no exception. However, the more complicated and closed-loop a magic array was, the more difficult it was to modify.
The huge integrated magic array in front of Lin Li had only been modified in the outermost channel. The main magic array that covered the World Bubble still looked the same as it had in the past. Although Fasnass tried to make corrections again, he only chose some insignificant small areas and performed some minor surgery that did not hurt or itch.
Perhaps Lin Li could not give any substantial opinions on the details before he fully understood them. However, regarding the organization, structure, and process, there were too many problems with the object in front of him. Lin Li could also give a set of opinions. However, considering that the nature of plants was not suitable for thinking, or that they had too much time to think, the World Trees were more concerned about using actions to prove themselves.
Therefore, Lin Li directly used the Whiteboard Technique and drew the same outline in front of the huge integrated magic array. Then, he began to make adjustments, including moving the position of the small magic arrays and reducing the number of channels.
But Fasnus wasn't going to blindly follow what someone did. He would wait for Lin Li's calculation to come up with a reasonable balance result and check that his calculation was correct before he made any changes. The application of these mathematical methods had started as early as when Lin helped Wadwal advance. Fasnass had also seen it for the first time in the data just now and applied it accordingly.
In the end, the positions of the eight small magic arrays that contained the World Bubble were adjusted from the original geometric balance to the physical balance points that took into account the differences in their strengths and weaknesses. They became less symmetrical, but the stability of the structure was much better than before.
The place that changed the most was the integration of some small redundant passages into the main passage. He also deleted most of the relay magic arrays that he had learned from Wadwal and Lahti, because that thing was not used in this place. Not to mention that there were seven or eight relay points in one channel. It felt strange no matter how one looked at it.
These changes were only the most superficial adjustments to Lin Li. In his eyes, there was still a lot of room for improvement in the overall magic array. However, to go deeper, he would need more time to think, study, and calculate.
However, this rough change caused a huge uproar in the outside world.
The status and importance of the World Tree Fasnass could be described with an old saying: if Fasnass sneezed, the entire maze would catch a cold. The small change in Lin Li's eyes directly caused the level of the maze's weather to change.
An unprecedented earthquake occurred in the area that was not on the fault line. People ran for their lives, shouting that the end had come. Mountains collapsed and the earth cracked in the area near Fasnass in the underground world. The entire terrain changed drastically. Not only did it bury many people, but it also trapped many people. If it weren't for the fact that the underground residents were very experienced in this kind of thing, whether it was to save themselves or to save others, there would probably be heavy casualties this time.
The worst disaster was, of course, in the domain of the World Tree, Fasnas. The entire canopy shook violently, and the branches and leaves rubbed against each other, making rustling sounds. The movement was so loud that it was deafening.
In particular, the main branches and secondary branches of the World Tree intertwined and moved, and the shape of the tree changed. For countless years, the environment that the Dark Elves operated in welcomed a complete destruction. The leader was not an enemy who coveted the World Tree, nor was it the elven army of another World Tree, but their own King — Fasnass.
The elders of the tribe immediately thought of the human Mage who had broken in. To be able to cause such "damage" to the World Tree, the other party must have already invaded the heart of the tree. Regardless of the changes in the path on the tree, they all led the warriors under their command and rushed to the vital parts of the World Tree with all their might.
At the same time, in the meeting space of the Turtledove Alliance, on the twenty-one benches, except for one seat that belonged to a certain human Mage, were all occupied by living creatures of different forms.
Even the plants would not be unaware of the changes in the maze. As for the World Trees, they knew very well where the source was. The only question was, what did the other ancient one do? Why did it cause all of this? Moreover, the changes this time were not just the disasters that outsiders had noticed. For the World Trees, their bodies and souls had also experienced an earth-shattering change.
It was these changes that made them understand that the relationship between the World Trees was not just the relationship between enemies and allies. The connection between them was even closer than they had imagined. Previously, Wadwo had advanced alone, triggering the first group reaction of the World Trees that was unknown to outsiders. This time, the turmoil caused by Fasnass would be the focus of everyone's attention in the maze.
Looking at the only empty seat, the trees were deep in thought.
At this moment, the Ancient in the meeting, Yuktrasir, opened his mouth and asked, "Wadwo, what do you think that human and Fasnass did together?"
"Boss, I think I want to know more than anyone else," Wadwo's white deer incarnation said, aggrieved.
