Chapter 783 World Tree Capital (5800)

From the very beginning, Ian has been looking forward to the appearance of the world tree capital, the capital of Canaan Moore.

Speaking of it, Ian is not afraid of being laughed at. Because Ian had no concept of the crazy world of Terra, he mistakenly thought that the imperial capital was just an ordinary medieval city. The giant city of technological planetary shield gave a shock of billions of screams.

Since then, he has been in awe of all the well-known big cities in Terra, and Ian is fascinated by the world tree capital, which is as famous as the imperial capital.

——How outrageous would that city be?I'm really looking forward to it.

With such anticipation, Ian spent two full days on the airship with several friends.

On the first day, the chairman of Yafoda left his family's airship for something, and Ian used his psychic power to communicate with Isengard about the 'Absolute Way' news.

In fact, Isengard has long known the existence of meditation and the core of source matter, but it was difficult to teach this new practice method through simple language at the beginning of its creation. Ian had to demonstrate it himself, so that others could understand what should be How to do it.

To put it simply, no one brought it with them. Only by relying on the rule book, few people can 'quickly' get started with some complicated board games.In fact, even if someone took it, it would be difficult for people with dull aptitude to learn it.

But Isengarde is indeed a genius. He was originally an excellent alchemist who was regarded as a future alchemist. The thinking patterns are all formed, and entering the second energy level is just a matter of course.

The source quality furnace core may take some time, but the method of meditation, which Isengard will learn on the same day, is faster than Qingchao's.

"It's actually the advantage of my bloodline."

In Ian's psychic energy channel, Isengard said quite modestly: "The blood of eclipsing the light and refining the dragon has requirements for micromanagement, and the soul of meditation is inscribed... To be honest, it is compared with manipulating one's own blood to form a source circuit. Not too difficult."

"but……"

Even though it was in the psychic channel, Isengard lowered his voice and said, "Aren't you going to teach Anfa and Xiou this?"

"Xio's dragon soul structure is too special. I think we should learn Xiou's soul structure, not the other way around. Of course, I also taught it. After all, the calculation structure of meditation is also quite advanced. No harm."

Ian said: "As for Anfa, her identity is quite special—although I knew that there might be a big family behind her, I didn't expect her to be the princess of the Jindeng family."

This is really unexpected. Ian originally thought that Anfa's identity might be a key child of a big family, but he didn't expect that the other party was one of the ten kings, the jewel in the palm of the head of the Jindeng family - of course , or it may be a unicorn in the clan, it mainly depends on what gender Anfa wants to use.

Now Ian has to be more careful... It's not the same level of difficulty and danger as recruiting a son of a big family into a gang, and pulling the first heir of a big family into a gang.

Even if the other party has a good relationship with Xiou and has invested in Xiahui Ling, he still has to be cautious about the way of the arcane.

"So you didn't teach?"

Isengard noticed this keenly, and Ian nodded: "Even you only teach today, let alone Anfa. Why do you care about this?"

"It's nothing."

Although it can be seen that Isengard is in a good mood, Ian has no idea why Isengarde is happy.

The closer it is to the middle of Canaan Moore, the more towns there are, and the climate is warmer and more humid. There is no concept of 'hot' in the vast plain land between the Thirteen River Basin and the shower wetland, only the coolness like spring all the year round. with damp.

Even on the airship, Ian, who occasionally goes out to explore the wind, can still feel the humidity in mid-air, which is the humidity that can almost wring out moisture from the air. If ordinary people live here, they may even feel the humidity. I felt tight in my chest, and the surrounding sky was also full of rain clouds. Light gray clouds gathered above the forest, stirring the weather called southern drizzle.

Ian thought that this climate would continue, and the World Tree Capital is such a city located in the humid and southern rainforest, which is very cool and fits Ian's imagination of the elves and the World Tree Capital.

But this is not the case.

After the airship crossed the Norguera Pass, which is the man-made mountain area surrounding the world tree capital, the scenery changed suddenly.

The land and sky that were originally covered by endless greenery and misty clouds suddenly changed, and the humid rainforest disappeared, replaced by a forested plain with suitable temperature and lush vegetation, but it was neither wet nor completely occupied by the rainforest—just right The temperature, the right ecological group, the right woods and grasslands have built a perfect ecological area in front of Ian.

What is perfection?That is, everything is available, everything is suitable, no more and no less, one ecological area is enough for life to multiply, and it will not hinder the survival of life in other ecological areas.

Streams, lakes, man-made mountains... the snow in the mountains, the hills under the mountains, the plains and some jungles, and the rainforest on the edge... After the Norguera Pass, everything is perfect beyond human imagination. A land in which any life can find a suitable place for its existence.

What is Gaia Garden?This is Gaia's field without a doubt.Even if all the races in the entire universe come here, more than 95% of the races will be able to find a place to live satisfactorily!
However, the most shocking thing is the existence in the center of this Gaia garden.

Ian saw the world tree capital.

He saw that huge, majestic giant tree that looked more like a mountain than a mountain.

What kind of giant tree is that...

In the center of the vast Gaia garden, a giant tree supporting the sky stands in the center of everything. It has a huge golden crown covering thousands of miles, and it is surrounded by turquoise light, just like the sun. shines on the whole field.

This giant tree is integrated with all things. Its crown shakes gently, like breathing, and even all the life in the entire garden trembles slightly. The tens of thousands of meters high crown reaches the depths of the atmosphere, visible to the naked eye. The planet's psionic field surrounds it, absorbed and utilized by the golden canopy.

"Golden Tree..."

Ian whispered to himself. He opened his eyes wide and stared at the giant tree in front of him: "No, those are not leaves...that is..."

"Dyson cloud?!"

The crown of the world tree is not like a plant in the general sense, but a leaf structure.Under Ian's observation, he noticed that the golden structure that looked like a canopy was essentially a mist of super-giant solar energy conversion crystals suspended in mid-air, and in the center of this mist was a The small sun confined by the super-giant magnetic confinement field.

An artificial star.

Yes, in the center of the canopy of the World Tree is an 'artificial sun' that operates very stably, and surrounding this sun are a large number of Dyson crystal clouds suspended in mid-air by the spiritual energy field.

Dyson cloud is a variant of Dyson sphere, which is a theory put forward by an earth scientist named Freeman Dyson in the 60s, an artificial celestial body that wraps stars and utilizes the energy of stars. A nuclear fusion reactor at the heart of a star, the natural fusion furnace.

Of course, the so-called theories can only be theories most of the time. Even with the technology of Ian's previous life on Earth, it is impossible to create such incredible physical monsters as Dyson spheres, but the Earth at that time had already disintegrated Mercury and created An orbiting Dyson cloud covers a part of the sun area, and uses that incredible energy to help the earth humans to open up the universe.

The canopy of the world tree is very similar to the Dyson cloud structure Ian saw in his previous life. It is a super-giant solar energy conversion battery area made of tiny crystal fog as a carrier. It can make good use of the energy of artificial stars, so that From a distance, people thought it was just a cluster of golden tree crowns.

As for the green light, of course it is not that the color of life is green, so the world tree will emit green light - it is only because the air density at the outermost periphery of the canopy is just to the point where it is difficult for the red and orange dichroic wavelengths to be refracted far away, so What appeared in front of everyone was a circle of golden-green light.

Ian rubbed his eyes, he looked seriously again, and then found something incredible.

The 'World Tree' is not a creature at all—its canopy is an artificial star and a small Dyson cloud, and its trunk is a super-giant metal bracket, and in this bracket, there are layers of structures similar to the imperial capital. Ecosystem... In other words, it is a city of sanctuary.

These cities are evenly distributed inside the World Tree in a symmetrical structure, until the "tree root" part ends, with a total of ten floors... The entire city inside the World Tree fully utilizes the man-made structures at the top of the World Tree. Stellar energy operates, it is extremely prosperous, just looking at it from a distance is amazing enough, it is hard to imagine how magnificent its interior is.

As for the root structure...

"Invisible."

Ian whispered to himself, his eyes flashed with silver-blue light, but he still couldn't see the end: "The roots of this thing go straight into the depths of the earth's crust... At least it draws energy from the mantle-what is this thing? ?!"

At this moment, apart from being shocked, Ian also felt a touch of absurdity.

As a 'planetary shield generator', the imperial capital is essentially a super plant-based biological structure at its core.

However, the capital of the world tree, which is most likely to be the "center of Gaia's garden", is a purely mechanical structure from beginning to end...even, a bit like a permanent space colony.

This is not Ian's random guess, but an evaluation made by a visitor from the interstellar era.

The world tree capital... If the golden tree in front of you is the world tree capital, then the most suitable area for it to exist is definitely not the surface of the earth, but the outer space area.

Under the observation of the silver chip and the vision of foresight, Ian noticed that the energy area of ​​the world tree capital, that is, the canopy, is maintained by relying on a strong person to control the planet's psionic field. The strength and superb sublimation skills must be at least the peak of the fourth energy level to be able to do it.

Similarly, the underground tree root area, another energy area, obviously needs strong people to maintain it.The two powerhouses of Canaan Moore's fifth energy level spend most of their time guarding the 'crown' and 'root', and the reason is obviously self-evident.They need to contend with the gravitational and psionic fields of Terra to maintain their existence.

However, such maintenance is very simple if it is in space-only a certain amount of computing power is required, and an artificial intelligence can easily maintain the stable operation of artificial stars and surrounding energy-absorbing devices, and the trunk city in the center is also very simple. A certain amount of artificial gravity can be obtained through space rotation, and cheap energy from artificial stars can be obtained.

even……

"Kind of like a 'generation ship'?"

A thought flashed in Ian's mind.

The so-called generation spaceship is a super-giant spaceship with a permanent ecological circle inside. It has a power source and a solid structure that can continue to sail for thousands of years. generations.

A generation spacecraft is a civilization that cannot travel at the speed of light or faster than the speed of light. It is a necessary tool for interstellar migration. When it arrives at its destination, the passengers and drivers in the entire spacecraft will be replaced for several generations, and a generation spacecraft itself can be regarded as a small world.

Obviously, World Tree Capital... meets this condition.

An artificial star is used as an energy source, and it can last for at least tens of thousands of years, and as long as it passes through a suitable gas giant star, it can be replenished with fuel. Scatter and escape separately... The more Ian looked at it, the more he felt that this thing was probably a spaceship that hit Terra head-on, but the angle of insertion was very straight, so it looked like a tree!

"Ian?"

Isengard also came to the outside of the airship. He followed the young man's eyes to look at the world tree capital in the distance, and immediately smiled clearly: "How about it, is it spectacular? It is not inferior to the imperial capital... But if you want Speaking of grandeur and fortification, the Emperor is not inferior to any fortified city."

Isengard’s words carried a sense of patriotism that is quite common in this world. The things in our country are not inferior to those of other countries. The center or the fallen alien spaceship is indeed a level of existence, but seeing one outrageous thing does not mean that you can adapt to another outrageous thing.

"I'm just emotional."

So Ian expressed his thoughts unpretentiously: "The ghostly place of Terra can always bring people surprises, even frights - the capital of the world tree is actually such a super giant creation, it is true if you don't take a look at it once unimaginable."

"Is that right?"

Anfa and Xiou also came over. The aborigine elf looked at his hometown with some doubts, and couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this normal? The world tree capital should be like this."

"Maybe Ian, you were born in South Ridge. There are quite a few big cities like this in Terra, so there's no need to be too surprised."

Ian turned his head. He saw that Isengard and Xiou also had expressions of 'naturalness' on their faces. This small-town boy from the Nanling countryside couldn't help sighing: "You guys...forget it. The locals There is no concept like this."

Under Ian's silent gaze, the Yinmen family's airship is gradually approaching the world tree capital.

There are hundreds of entrances and exits in this tree city of the elves, most of which are located in mid-air, so people use airships or other means of air transportation to enter.

It was evening now, and the sun was gradually setting.

In the light of the World Tree Capital itself, everything seemed a little dim.

Before approaching, Ian and the others saw dozens of airships with lights on, swaying in mid-air like giant whales in the air, undulating around the world tree capital.

These airships all have shining lights, and various advertising signs are painted on the hulls. Among them, several airships that are obviously more advanced can even project huge 3D projection advertisements, just like the projection of real objects. The outside of the trunk rotates, while bright neon lights flow from the urban area inside the trunk.

Built on the flyover bracket outside the World Tree, the bustling crowd is shuttling back and forth, walking between different layers. They are bathed in the lights of these advertisements, and they have long been accustomed to it.

The Yinmen family's airship is gradually approaching the top floor of the World Tree Capital'Trunk Area', where most of the government divisions of Canaan Moore are built.

Ian originally planned to go back to pack his luggage and get off the airship with Isengard and Anfa, but as the Silver Gate airship gradually approached, the Canaanite Moorish elves who were walking in the top floor area and the surrounding flyovers But they cheered.

"Wow! It's the Yinmen family's empty boat!"

"It's lucky that I can meet you at such a late hour!"

"Okay, now the expenses for the next half month will be enough!"

For a while, many elves took out a small crystal plate from their bodies, and then scanned it at the Silver Gate airship.

【——Thank you for your support to the Yinmen family, Yafoda Yinmen sincerely serves you——】

【——1500 Ona, payment has arrived——】

"……what?"

Although there is no crystal plate, Ian has a silver chip. He directly captured the flowing electronic signal in the air, and then slightly opened his eyes: "This is..."

"This is just a propaganda strategy of the Ten Kings' Blood Family."

The green-haired elf girl quietly came to Ian's side. She stood on the edge of the airship, staring indifferently at the elves who were cheering: "As long as you see and take pictures of the airship with the logo of the Ten Kings Blood Family, Then give a like in the personal crystal board to express support, and every witness will receive a large amount of reward money."

"I remember, it seems to be [-] ona, right? It's about [-] to [-] thalers, the average worker's salary for a few months. So every time the ten king's blood airship appears, it will arouse people's cheers and praise. Very simple strategy for gaining popular support.”

"... Sprinkle money."

Ian was silent for a while. He could notice that those elves who photographed the Silver Gate airship were joyful from the bottom of their hearts, and how much of this joy could be transferred to the Ten Kings' Blood family?Maybe not many, but there must be. After all, as long as it appears, it can bring wealth. As long as the blood family of the ten kings does not do outrageous things, in this world with sublimators, no elves will try challenge their domination.

Simple.rough.effective.For sublimators, as long as there is an effect, everything else is trivial.

"Oh! It's the eldest lady of the Jindeng family!"

Not far away, an elf who was closer saw Ian and Anfa beside Ian, he recognized Anfa's appearance, and then took a breath: "Oh my god, today is such a lucky day? ! To be able to meet such a noble person!"

"It's so lucky, is the spirit protecting us?"

"Huaiguang is above..."

Accompanied by the sound of praise, many elves began to take pictures of Anfa, and the elf girl who was exposed to the eyes of the public did not feel annoyed at all. Instead, she brought a business-like smile, raised her hand, and nodded to everyone who was taking pictures of herself. The applauded crowd of elves waved.

"Wow - Missy is waving at me!"

"Ms. Anfa, we love you!"

The cheers of the elves even formed a wave in midair.

【——Thank you for your support to the Ember Lantern family, Anfaruian De Ember Deng will serve you wholeheartedly——】

【——1000 Ona, payment has arrived——】

It's obvious—except for the airship and other facilities that represent the family, if you see the person directly, there will naturally be a reward money.

The wealth far beyond the needs of people's life is controlled by the blood of the ten kings. They don't have any needs for these assets that ordinary people would pay attention to, so they simply allocate part of it and convert it into the worship and support of the people for them and for their family individuals.

Think about it... If there is a family member whose mere presence will bring wealth to all witnesses, then can he still escape the public eye?Can he still not be recognized by the public?

And if such a person becomes a ruler, when people see him the first time, do they think of joy and harvest, or do they think of a superior and daunting 'Master'?

- To be feared by others, only the 'sublimator' is enough.

——The blood of the ten kings does not need the awe of the elves, but only their support, yearning and respect.

"Welcome to Canaan Moore."

When the airship gradually entered the special airship entrance and disappeared into the cheers of many elves, Anfa lowered his eyes and whispered to the silent Ian: "Welcome to the capital of the world tree."

"This is the most prosperous and welcoming city in all of Terra."

"none of them."

　Thank you readers for your rewards... It's been a waste of money, I will find a time to add an update for everyone's support, the recent revision of the starting point can't see who is rewarding, but I can see the number of people, this is definitely something to give back...
