"How's the professor doing?"
"I'm fine. But Sumesh and Flora were caught in the blast when the Chosen unleashed his power. Flora was only slightly injured, but Sumesh was seriously injured." Sunders sighed. "If I wasn't there to protect him, he would've fallen to the level of truth already. Even if his mind remained the same, it would take him several years to reach the level of truth-finder again. "
"What about the current situation of the Chosen?"
Sunders felt tired again. "The Chosen is now a level-1 truth-finder, but the Demon God's blessing granted him the ability to control space. In the end, he tore a hole in space and escaped. I think he's hiding in a corner somewhere. "
The Chosen wasn't as strong as Sunders, but he was too good at running away. Besides, the Demon God's blessing made it difficult to catch him.
Also, as far as he knew, the demon god's chosen one killed the other Red Plague believers in order to gain more power. His crazy personality would never allow him to submit to Sunders' power. He would definitely come back for revenge.
Angor wasn't worried about the Chosen 'revenge. However, the Chosen's ability to appear and disappear unpredictably was a great threat to Flora and Sumesh.
"Don't worry about that. I've placed them in my gravity garden. They'll be fine."
Angor was surprised to hear that. Yeah, they could still hide in the gravity garden.
If that was the case, why didn't Sunders leave?
"Flora insisted on studying the Bloodmelt Virus, and I'm going to kill the Chosen." Sunders' tone grew colder.
Unlike the Supreme Cult members who would kill anyone they saw, Sunders usually did things according to his own whims. However, the current situation was different. Since the Chosen attacked them, Sunders wouldn't forgive them easily. Besides, just like the Supreme Cult, Demon God believers were all lunatics who always believed in the principle of "death or destruction". There was no way to reconcile.
For this reason, Sunders was still staying in the area where the Red Plague believers were hiding. While searching for traces of the Bloodmelt Virus, he was also planning to lure the Chosen out of hiding.
After making sure Sunders was fine, he sighed in relief. Angor didn't ask how Sunders was going to deal with the Chosen. He believed that if Sunders was determined to kill the Chosen, he would be able to do it.
Sunders then asked about Angor's condition.
Sunders nodded when he heard that Angor had helped Freud stabilize the threat of death aura and returned to the Old Earth alone.
However, Angor's next words surprised him.
"I'm going back to the Old Earth. Apart from going to the manor, I'm also going to see if there are any elemental creatures that suit me."
This sentence sounded normal, but when one thought about the general environment of the Old Earth, this sentence was very strange.
The Old Earth was called the Marginalized Island in the wizarding world. It wasn't because of its remote location, but because it was an elemental desert. Almost no elemental energy could be sensed here. It was the edge of the supernatural world.
Among the unfinished missions in the questing halls of major wizard organizations, "The Mystery of Elemental Disappearance on the Marginalized Island" was one of them.
For thousands of years, no one had solved this quest.
But now, Angor suddenly said that he was going to see if there were any elemental creatures in the elemental desert. This was strange.
Sunders muttered "elemental creature" several times and looked at the gentle young man in front of him.
He seemed to have thought of something. He wanted to ask many questions, but each time, he stopped himself.
In the end, he stared at Angor for a long time and forced himself to speak.
"You're not going to do something big again, are you?"
"Huh?"
He purposely mentioned elemental creatures to hint to Sunders that he was going to solve an unsolved mystery that had been hanging in the air for thousands of years, and he already found some clues. This would pique Sunders' curiosity and make him ask for more details. Then he would keep a mysterious smile on his face and say something like "You'll know when the time comes" to satisfy Sunders' vanity.
But instead of asking for more details, Sunders asked if Angor was going to do something big again. Something was wrong with the plot!
Besides, did he look like someone who always did something like this? Angor couldn't help but think.
"You are." Sunders knew what Angor was thinking even though he didn't say anything, so he pointed it out without hesitation.
Sunders rubbed his forehead, which was getting more and more painful. "I don't want to go over your past deeds. Now tell me, how big are you going to do this time?"
Angor remained silent for a moment and decided not to argue with his professor. "I just found some clues about the disappearance of elements, and I'm looking into them now."
Sunders looked at Angor's serious face and thought to himself, If Angor isn't looking for elemental creatures, he must have found some clues already.
There are elemental creatures in the desert? What kind of secret is hidden there? Is this a case of "everything goes in the opposite direction"?
Sunders knew that Angor was hiding something, but he didn't plan to ask.
Since Angor already mentioned it on purpose, he would definitely tell Sunders everything in the end. After all, someone else would have to clean up his mess.
"Do as you see fit. I'll see what you can tell me later." Sunders was complaining about Angor's troublemaking, but he would appreciate it if Angor could really do something big. Even if it was a big trouble, it also meant a lot of benefits. Angor's actions over the years had brought him a lot of profit, which was directly proportional to the amount of trouble he caused.
After saying that, Sunders did not ask any more questions.
Angor opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he decided not to. He could always tell Sunders when he found out the secret of the Tidal Realm.
Next, they talked about some unimportant things, such as Sunders' praise for Flora's persistence in finding the Bloodmelt Virus, Angor's talk about Elmi, who was controlled by the Distorted Seed, and the demons in the Panic Realm.
About half an hour later, Sunders prepared to return to reality. First, he needed to guard against sneak attacks from Angor's Favored. Second, he needed to go back and figure out what kind of authority Sumesh should choose.
…
Angor was about to go offline as well, but he remembered Jon's message, so he stopped and took out the Mother Tree Communicator.
Jon asked Angor to try out the new features of the tree group and chat with him privately.
With that in mind, he followed the instructions and found "Function Integration" at the bottom of the tree interface. He tapped on it, and a new row of function keys appeared in front of him.
These functions were not available in the past, which meant they were the new features of version 0.
Angor didn't check them out right away. Instead, he clicked on the top button: "Update Announcement".
Once he opened it, a new page popped up.
The new page was written in the parchment format that wizards were familiar with. The font used was Jon's own invention. It looked fancy, but it didn't look completely open. Instead, it looked more reserved and restrained.
At first glance, this kind of handwriting was like a person who wanted to be bold and unrestrained, but had no choice but to appear serious.
Leona saw this font when she was reading Jon's "Overview and Detailed Planning of New City" in the Mother Tree Forum. Her comment was, "Jon looks like you and Saunders. You're all cool on the outside."
Angor believed that Leona was only using this chance to criticize Sunders, while he and Jon were just doing it for fun. He didn't think that the font was not boring. It was more like someone who liked to show off.
Angor looked at the words with admiration before he shifted his attention to the update announcement.
The content of the announcement was all about the new features of the tree group.
Angor already noticed that there was no difference between the color of the bubble and the name of the bubble. The time when the message was sent out was also recorded in the announcement.
In addition, the function of the function keys in "Function Integration" was also mentioned.
This included editing one's personal data, adding friends, and so on.
There wasn't much content in the announcement, but each function was greatly improved. It was gradually approaching the social software back on Earth.
Angor followed the content and tried out the different functions one by one.
Personal data was the foundation. In the future, every new user who joined the tree group would fill in their personal data as soon as possible. Existing users could also edit their personal data. However, the current version did not allow unlimited editing. One could only change one's personal data once.
There weren't many users in the current version of the tree group. Jon already knew the names of all the users, so he kindly put Angor's name in his personal data.
Angor could edit his personal data without using his real name. He could even change it to "Super Dimensional Wizard". However, in the current environment of the Mother Tree, apart from Jon who used the name "Tree Group Development Team", no one had the habit of using their real names yet.
Angor had a vision beyond the current internet age. However, he did not plan to go against the trend, so he did not change his name.
As for the details such as the friend list, Angor checked them one by one. There was nothing wrong.
After all, Jon had gone through an era of information explosion. He had a clear direction and plan. No matter how he changed the function of the tree group, it would not be too bad.
Angor finished his test and sent a friend request to Sunders and Jon.
Sunders had gone offline and did not accept the request. However, Jon accepted Angor's request as soon as possible.
Not long after, Jon sent a message to Angor. "Did you try the new version? What do you think?"
Angor knew Jon's personality well. He did not ask in a hurry because he was not confident in his work. He just wanted feedback from the users. Or rather, he needed a special case like Angor to give feedback.
Jon's tree group was modeled after the social software back on Earth in the internet age. The users of social software back on Earth were naturally the modern humans in the information age. The wizarding world was ruled by humans as well. However, Jon was worried that such software would not be able to adapt to the wizarding world due to the different civilizations.
Therefore, he needed someone like Angor who knew both about Earth's civilization and the wizarding world to provide feedback.
"Do the other users have anything to say about the new version?" Angor did not answer right away.
Chown said, "Not really. They're very familiar with it. Also, Witch Leona is urging us to add more interconnectors. I've already ground all of the Mother Tree's branches into powder, so I still have some left over for the time being. However, there are a large number of Extraordinaires stationed in the new city every day, so I reckon that the powder from the Mother Tree's branches won't last for long. The reason I came looking for you this time is to ask you to give me more branches. "
"I'll give you the branches later." Angor paused and continued typing, "Since the other users are fine with it, and the number of supernaturals is increasing, doesn't it mean the new version of the tree group is good?"
"Ugh. That's true. But without a root server, I don't know whether the new users will go to the Mother Tree forum or the tree group."
The Mother Tree forum was not updated yet, but the tree group had already been updated. This was why Jon was worried about the new version.
"The monitoring of data flow is something we need to pay attention to. I'll learn more about the Mother Tree's network later and implement this function into the immersive network as a server. I'll give you permission later, "Angor said.
"Big data is useless in the early stage. But it'll be very useful in the future."
Angor changed the topic. "Let's get back to my opinion. As I said before, since the other users don't have a negative attitude towards the new version of Shu Qun, it means that they can accept such a setting. "
"Based on my personal experience, it's pretty good. However, there are many functions that haven't been added, such as creating a new chat group."
Currently, there was only one chat group in the entire tree group, in which all the users were gathered. When he checked the chat group, he saw that it was Leona giving orders and suggestions about the construction of the new city, while the apprentices who participated in the construction of the new city gave their feedback according to Leona's will.
The chat group had basically become a chat group about the construction of the new city.
In fact, this already showed that the chat group was out of balance. They needed a new chat group to distribute the information.
Apart from Leona, he also saw bubbles from Iron Granny and Tree Spirit. However, the bubbles from Kudou, Papaya, and the others were nowhere to be seen.
They were on different levels after all. When Angor spoke in the chat group before, they all trembled in fear. They did not dare to act recklessly in the chat group when such powerful figures showed up. They did not want to say anything wrong, so they simply stopped sending messages.
This went against the original purpose of the chat group.
Jon: "I know. But you have to feed them one bite at a time. If you give them too much at once, they'll get confused. Version 0 focuses on private chats and adding friends. "
"We'll talk about creating chat groups in the future versions. Also, I'm not sure if we should completely remove the restrictions on creating chat groups like the civilizations on Earth. Or do we use a guild application system? "
