Mecha Star Wars.

The voice was intermittent, as if he would die at any moment, which scared the two of them.

Especially Antonio, who was dunking with great enthusiasm, jumped back a few steps and almost stepped on Xingchen's foot.

"Where? Where?"

It’s most likely the voice of the tree keeper, but where is the person?

The two searched around but didn't see a single person. Could it be that... this pillar was talking?

Antonio, whose eyes had been opened by the special event and the supernatural person, accepted the fact that the pillar could speak well and went closer to take a closer look, but this time he was determined not to touch it.

Lin Fan pulled him aside to prevent him from getting too close: "Excuse me, are you the guardian of the World Tree?"

After waiting for a while, just when both of them began to doubt whether it was just their own imagination, the old voice appeared again.

"it's me……"

"This way..."

The cave is a closed spherical structure with a rumbling echo, so it is useless to say this.

The two men had no choice but to search from pillar to pillar, and finally saw an ugly face with a lot of loose skin on the back of a seemingly broken pillar, with eyes and mouth covered by excess skin.

It was really ugly, and it was purple and blue, like the color of poison... The two mechas that had finally found the target didn't want to move forward another step.

Is this the World Tree that has become a spirit? Or is the tree keeper of Tiandu Star just a tree man?

But no matter what, finding the tree keeper means finding the World Tree, even though the scene is not quite what they imagined.

In their imagination, a world tree that can support an entire continent should be extremely thick, with its top supporting the atmosphere and its roots in the earth's core... ahem, that's a bit exaggerated, but at least it's more spectacular than the world tree on Lanxing, right?

The branches they chopped out in the gaps at the joints were very thick, so I always thought that the trunk of the tree must be very huge.

But when they actually saw it... it couldn't be said to be not thick. It was so thick that it would take a star and Apollo to embrace it together. But... it was about the same thickness as the stone pillars next to it that seemed to be supporting a large palace... In short, it was far different from what they had imagined.

Not special at all, not at all... consistent with their impression of the World Tree.

However, such a thin tree trunk is consistent with the intensity of the spiritual energy emanating from the air of Tiandu Star.

But Lin Fan recalled the first time he saw the World Tree on Lanxing, it was still a small sapling... So were they just taking it for granted?

The size of the tree, even its color or shape, is not a problem. What matters is why the continents of this planet are what they are.

Before they could ask any questions, the old voice rang out for the third time. This time, he said thank you.

This tree man looked as old as he looked, as if he would die at any moment. He would take a long time to speak a few words. Lin Fan and the others waited for a long time before they figured out what was going on.

It turns out that Tiandu Star’s start is similar to that of Lan Star.

It is also a planet that has just produced intelligent creatures, with countless rich products. Nuwa left behind the World Tree and many God's sons with mixed genes, and the Tree Keeper is naturally one of them.

At the beginning, everything was fine. God and man were clearly distinguished from each other. The Son of God loved man, man worshipped God, and tribal civilization was born.

But a sudden natural disaster interrupted this prosperity. The high heat and smoke from the volcanic eruption destroyed the tribe, which was not well developed at the time.

The sons of God were also caught off guard and tried their best to save many people, but for the entire social form, ecological destruction was a fatal blow.

Faced with the continuous eruption of the volcano, many sons of God used their magical powers to stop it, risking their lives. Since then, the volcano has ceased to exist on Tiandu Star.

After the volcano collapsed, the Golden Wheel traveled far away, and Tiandu Star did not have enough heat source, so it entered the ice age.

It was difficult for the already scarce human beings to survive in a situation where they had nothing. The sons of God tried their best but only managed to keep a tiny spark of life.

This was the first time that Tiandu Star was destroyed. The newly grown and not yet fully grown World Tree played almost no role this time.

"The first time? Could it be that the world is now destroyed for the second time?" Everyone who had never known about this history was shocked.

If it weren't for the existence of the World Tree, who would know the history of a planet, and what it has experienced over thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of years...

"No, in this world... for the third time..."

The old tree man's nonchalant answer was like a bomb, making everyone dizzy.

The third apocalypse?! What happened the second time?

Lin Fan and Apollo exchanged glances, thinking that the broken and pieced-together continent must be the result of the second apocalypse.

Human development is not easy.

The people hiding in the caves and relying on the energy of the world tree finally survived the cold winter and started a new life.

This time, the remaining sons of God were more cautious.

The God of Doom does not always come. This time, the World Tree successfully grew up.

Human society also continued to update and iterate according to the normal process, and everything was fine until the end of the world.

When Lao Shu said this, his tone became lighter, as if he was recalling that happy time, which made him happy both physically and mentally.

"Since everything is fine, why is the world destroyed again?" Lin Fan asked him with a frown.

It is impossible to imagine an apocalypse that would scatter continental plates like floating duckweed.

"Is it another natural disaster?" Antonio asked.

"No..." Lao Shu's voice lowered, "It's a man-made disaster."

The last apocalypse also occurred in an era similar to the present one on Tiandu Star. Technology was still more advanced, at least fifty years ahead.

But it is precisely because science has advanced so much that humans have become overly dependent on science, which has backfired.

"Isn't scientific progress a good thing?" Lin Fan asked.

They are searching the universe for better science and technology.

"Good...bad...it's the human heart." The old tree said intermittently.

Because they felt sad about the first apocalypse, the sons of God are particularly compassionate to humans in this life.

No matter what they do, they will support them unconditionally, and even if they make mistakes, they will tolerate them unconditionally.

They are our own children, so it doesn’t matter if they make some mistakes. We are here anyway.

It doesn’t matter if trees are cut down excessively, and it doesn’t matter if pollution is discharged into rivers, lakes and seas, because the World Tree can purify the water anyway.

How difficult it is for the children to get to this point? What's wrong with making a few mistakes? We can teach them slowly, they are still children.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before humans themselves became aware of the environmental problems, quickly corrected their destructive tendencies, put forward the concept of environmental protection, and implemented it very well.

Look, isn’t everything fine?

No one was hurt except for the World Tree, which suffered a lot under such indulgent pampering.

Although the tree keeper feels sorry for the world tree, he also cares about humans and is pleased with their transformation.

Later, as technology developed and society moved towards a more efficient development, people became indifferent to each other, and everyone seemed to have built a high wall around themselves with electronic technology.

When almost all human labor can be replaced by high technology, meals can be cooked by robots, the floor can be swept by robots, houses can be built by robots, programs can be written by robots, and even entertainment, movies, novels, and music can be automatically edited by machines...

"Could it be that AI has become conscious and is rebelling? AI will fight against humans in the second world and be destroyed!" Antonio blurted out.

The old tree took a while to react before answering: "It wasn't... caused by humans... themselves..."

I almost couldn't turn off my computer last night.

First, the computer didn't respond when I turned it on in the morning. This has happened many times and was solved by a forced restart.

I turned off my computer when I was about to go to bed, but after a while I found it was still on. I started to wonder if I had remembered it wrongly and it was not turned off. However, all the software had been closed, leaving only an empty desktop.

So I clicked the shutdown button in the lower left corner again...no response, I clicked again, no response.

Restarting didn't work, hibernation worked but that didn't help.

In the end, it was the scheduled automatic shutdown commands collected hundreds of years ago that helped.

I found the command from some corner, set it to automatically shut down after 10 seconds, and it finally worked.

I felt as if I had witnessed with my own eyes the notebook gradually falling into disrepair, and I felt uncomfortable.

I am a sentimental person, and I have feelings for things that I have used for a long time. I always collect a lot of old things that others think are "broken".

I still want her to stay with me for a long, long time. Come on, Benben.
