The World Tree has three main functions.
First, it records the development of the world. It is equivalent to a monitoring or data entry device.
Of course, because it was blocked by Pangu before it could do much work, it seems that nothing was recorded.
Second, store energy.
When the tree roots are deeply planted in the ground and grow normally, its energy will turn into leaves hanging on the branches.
"What exactly is that energy?" asked the old man.
He asked this question specifically because Lin Fan had said before that the energy of the World Tree could be integrated into the stars.
"I don't know." Lin Fan shook his head, frowning slightly, and replied with a hint of confusion, "The ugly woman said I absorbed the energy of the World Tree, but I don't feel anything at all. Just because the leaves can be integrated into the mecha, I don't think it means anything."
"Well... that means there is no concrete cognition for the time being." The old man lowered his head and took notes carefully in his notebook.
"Yes." Lin Fan nodded. "But according to the ugly woman, this energy is what drives civilization. Actually, I don't quite understand how to drive civilization. It's not like a car can just run by filling it with gas. Where is this energy used?"
If it could propel planets to accelerate and break out of the Milky Way, Lin Fan could understand. But promoting civilization? He didn't understand.
The old man laughed heartily, and sporadic laughter could be heard from the screen.
"Well, that's true. We haven't figured out how to use it yet. Once we've confirmed it, I'll tell you as soon as possible." The old man said cheerfully, his tone a bit like he was coaxing his granddaughter.
Lin Fan blinked, not knowing which sentence was funny.
Unable to figure it out, he didn't dwell on it and continued, "But the ugly woman cherishes the World Tree very much. I hit the tree twice, and a lot of its leaves, which are energy, fell off. At least a third of it, and the ugly woman was heartbroken. I used this to threaten her, and only then did we reach an agreement."
This situation has been discussed before, and everyone already knows about it.
"The ugly woman's mission is to protect the planet, but the core mission is to protect the World Tree..." The old man lowered his head and took notes again, "In other words, the World Tree ranks first in importance."
"Yes. She said that if it hadn't been sealed, the world wouldn't be like this now. The tree has enough high technology to rapidly develop the world."
This is the third function of the World Tree, which is similar to a popular science education system and stores the high technology left by Nuwa.
But having said that, no one knows where the technology is and how to use it.
However, just by the fact that the leaves of the World Tree exist in the form of energy, one can sense the existence of a technological power that is higher than our current level.
The energy that grows from the tree automatically dissipates after it falls, and can also return to the body's circulation system through the air and soil...
Well, current technology really can't do that.
If this is really high-tech power, then the gap between them and their ancestors is indeed very large!
The old man kept recording, then looked up and asked, "The World Tree can't move because its leaves fall off easily?"
Lin Fan scratched the back of his head and replied hesitantly, "I'm not sure, because both times it was Xingchen who hit it. I'm not sure how much force is normally enough to knock off the leaves, but the ugly woman obviously won't let anyone touch her precious baby so easily again."
Perhaps it was because she had a stress reaction after being tricked by Kuafu. The ugly woman really needs a psychological expert like Jin Sichen to intervene.
Lin Fan suddenly had this thought.
"Then don't move." The old man nodded.
It is not a wise choice to test someone's weakness even though you know he has a weak spot.
"When I have a better relationship with the ugly woman, I will ask her about the use and specifics of the World Tree. For now, I will hold back."
I haven't used the World Tree for so many years, so a few months won't make a difference.
"What about the living water? I heard that the repair effect is very good?" The old man ended the topic of the World Tree and looked at John Woo again.
There are three treasures in the cave: the ugly woman, the world tree, and the living water. After the first two are dealt with, the living water will naturally come.
It’s good to have a repair function!
When Lin Fan accidentally acquired the ability to repair cells automatically, everyone was envious.
But there are some things that you really can’t envy.
Who wouldn’t be excited to know that there is such a natural, restorative water resource?
Can sampling, analysis, and use in the medical industry accelerate the healing of many internal and external wounds?
"Yes, I've personally experienced it, it's very effective." Wu Yusen was happy when he mentioned this. "Not only that, after my injury healed, I soaked in it for a while longer, and I felt that my physical fitness had reached a new level, a breakthrough!"
Human physical fitness has its limits.
Once you reach the level of John Woo and Song Ren, it is very difficult to go further.
Wu Yusen also knew this and did not force it. However, he did not expect that this time he could turn a disaster into a blessing.
Compared to Lin Fan, who didn't feel much, and Sister Xu, who was in a coma, he was actually the biggest beneficiary of this operation.
The injury wasn't serious, I didn't suffer much, and I actually benefited from it.
"Step up your research on the water samples you brought back. And next time Xiaolin goes there, ask the ugly woman if she can move it away... Well, let's not do that. Ask her if she can give us some." The old man saw that John Woo was so excited that he wanted to take off his clothes to show him off on the spot. They knew that the effect of the living water might be better than they imagined.
At least it is of great help to ordinary people.
Removing the running water was a bit rude, just like moving the well out of someone's yard. After all, they were our ancestors, so we should show them some respect.
However, water extraction requires less change and seems more feasible.
"Okay, I'll ask later." Lin Fan agreed immediately.
Judging from the ugly woman's behavior, she doesn't seem to value living water as much as the world tree.
Since Xingchen splashed the water everywhere several times and she didn't blame him, there was still a chance of success.
As for the World Tree, don't even ask. If you ask the ugly woman, she will definitely get furious.
"As for the shuttle, ask about it next time you go back and see if you can get some information out of it," the old man said again.
A shuttle sounds like an advanced spaceship. If it can be found, it will greatly promote the development of aviation and other technologies.
Lin Fan nodded as usual, indicating that he would remember it.
Another problem was solved. After the old man drew some strokes, he finally set his eyes on Lin Fan again.
"Then there's the final topic. Has the Star been upgraded again?"
The stars are charged, which is the biggest reason why they can suppress the ugly woman this time.
This electricity obviously came from the influence of the Five Thunder Talisman Formation.
From Lin Fan's own account, we can also know that a large amount of electric current had been injected into her body.
But because there is no God's perspective, no one knows the specific situation.
If the electric current on the stars is only temporary and will decrease or even disappear over time, then they can also make adequate preparations and take timely precautions.
For example, next time you deal with an ugly woman, will these charges still be there?
If she were still here, it would be fine. But if she is not here, we must provide everyone, especially Lin Fan, with more life-saving measures to prevent the ugly woman from turning against us.
If it's permanent...
The old man raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
If it were permanent, that would be even better.
Wow, I finally handed in my painting homework. Ah~ I can relax a little now~
Take a breath, take a breath.
