Other science teams in different worlds are both competitors and learning objectives. The goal of Green Dragon Garel is very clear: obtaining a World Tree seed within a hundred years would suffice.
"Can you eat it?" Tanshia Firlo sat on Zheng Yichen’s lap and poked the World Tree seed in his hand, "This thing looks like so kind of nut."
"You can’t eat it. Eating this would turn you into a tree," Zheng Yichen said seriously, repeating what Senluo had said initially. He didn’t know what form turning into a tree would take, but it was still better not to tempt fate.
Ahn Ke wasn’t shy at all, since they had slept together and had close physical contact. After she touched the seed, she found that so parts that looked fragile were actually exceptionally hard. However, she was not very interested in this type of plant matter.
Even the existence of the World Tree truly shocked her.
She was more interested in Senluo’s ’treants,’ people who transford from the World Tree’s fruits. What was their physical state? How did it differ from that of normal humans? Could they reproduce offspring, etc.?
She really wanted to conduct experints on these, even if so of them were deed inhumane... but, if the conditions allowed, perhaps Zheng Yichen would have no problem helping her with them, right?
In the field she excelled in, Ahn Ke displayed morality that was quite flexible.
Katrina just asured up the seed with her eyes. After seeing it, her curiosity was satisfied, primarily because the normal state of a World Tree seed is too common. Study this thing? She had self-awareness.
Tanshia Firlo glanced at Green Dragon Garel and then said, "But I don’t feel any signs of life from it."
By now, Zheng Yichen sowhat believed what the small white dragon had said in the Great World, that acting very wise and all was just a façade... It really was an act, right?
"The shell of the World Tree seed is too sturdy. If you threw it into the core of the Earth, it would remain unscathed. If this thing were thrown into the sun, I reckon it might even turn into so kind of Fire World Tree or sothing?"
He tossed the World Tree seed in his hand and thought, for other uses, taking this object as a projectile, Zheng Yichen was confident he could directly smash through a quadruped extraterrestrial being’s flagship shield and pierce right through it...
Zheng Yichen then felt a touch of regret for the extraterrestrial fleets; the energy and strength levels of this world were so high, high enough that he could take on a fleet on his own... tsk tsk.
Tough luck for them.
"So how do you use this thing? Find a place to plant it and wait a couple of hundred years?"
"A couple of hundred years, and at most this thing will be a little sapling. Who can... oh, we can wait, but I’m not planning to anymore. I’ve decided to use this thing as the enhancent material I was preparing."
"..." Although he was sowhat prepared for it, Garel still couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth when Zheng Yichen said that. This was a World Tree seed, after all; looking at the colossal tree on this planet gave one an idea of its potential.
Yet Zheng Yichen was planning to use it as an enhancent material.
This wasn’t just extravagant...
"It sounds very wasteful, doesn’t it? Does this thing really have no use just by carrying it around?" Tanshia Firlo mimicked Zheng Yichen’s action and tossed the Holy Relic of Life in her hand.
"Carrying it around just like that isn’t really useful." Inside the World Tree, the World Tree seed could at least serve as a light source, with its brightness indeed improving the environnt and promoting better survival and growth of life.
This was also where the World Tree seed seed rebellious. The interior of the World Tree itself had a light source; it didn’t need the World Tree seed to emit light on its own, constantly conveying a ssage of "old thing, you are no longer needed."
After separating from the World Tree, it beca what it was now. Eating... Zheng Yichen couldn’t break through its outer shell, and if he wanted to eat it, he would have to cut a slit in his stomach and shove it directly there.
But sothing that could withstand the pressure at the core of the Earth, his stomach acid would probably just polish this thing.
There was no use in planting it sowhere; using it as an enhancent material was best. As for what results it might enhance, he just needed to know that it was sothing incredibly powerful. Strong things like this were bound to be good for enhancing equipnt.
"In that case, I’m looking forward to the results." Garel left Dusk Cathedral.
Zheng Yichen had made a decision, and there wasn’t much he could say about it. Better to hurry up and learn more things that would be useful to the Dragon Tribe in the future; this would also allow him to obtain a World Tree seed sooner. Zheng Yichen didn’t reveal too much about the interior of the World Tree, but he did share so important intelligence.
There are currently three World Tree seeds left. The relationship between the World Tree seed and the World Tree itself is not ’harmonious’; this is the instinctive reaction when the seed is connected to the World Tree, which Weaginia had already ntioned.
Of the three World Tree seeds, there should be one for the Dragon Tribe. As for Weaginia and the others seeking more external assistance, it was no longer needed at the mont; Zheng Yichen had single-handedly defeated the extraterrestrials, and what remained was the developnt issue of the indigenous people of this world.
And on his side, he had at least one hundred thirty years, which was far more abundant than expected. Zheng Yichen also had other gains within the World Tree, sothing he as a foreigner shouldn’t ddle with. Through Tanshia Firlo’s inquiries, he had already gained an initial understanding of the World Tree seed.
Leaving now would be perfect.
Zheng Yichen took out so new things, branches of the World Tree and so other materials, which he also prepared to use as enhancent materials, incidentally customizing so good stuff for the people around him.
For this purpose, he had specifically contacted Liu Hongzhao and the others via the storage cabinet, but they had not yet replied, probably not at the Dusk Cathedral, if they missed this chance, then they’ll just wait for the next opportunity.
He now had plenty of rit points and could undergo a significant strengthening. His experiences in the Great World made Zheng Yichen less concerned about the importance of rit points.
Based on his encounters in the Great World and subsequent dical expenses, as long as his rit points didn’t drop below twenty, most problems weren’t an issue, and keeping more rit points as a reserve was simply wasteful.
It was better to transform it into his own strength sooner rather than later, because no matter how many rit points he had, they would beco useless in the event of an unforeseen accident, and he was still 11 points short of the total rit points needed for an extra preservation chance.
He could et this minor goal in the next mission, and then in any future action, he could afford to splurge once without worry.
"World Tree prival branches and leaves, what kind of equipnt do you want?"
"I don’t need equipnt," Ahn Ke was the first to say, as she was focused on scientific research; for her, equipnt was less useful than a scalpel, and she didn’t plan to switch to any combat role.
"The slting fee at Dusk isn’t cheap."
"Then just make a simple scalpel," Ahn Ke thought for a mont before adding, "I’ll provide a design plan."
It wasn’t the scalpel itself that needed designing, but the functional aspect of it. After studying magic in the world of magic for several months, she understood magic quite well. Since she was making sothing special, it shouldn’t just be plain.
It would be better suited to her circumstances, like incorporating protective and purification functions, which were troubleso aspects of conducting experints.
Sotis she needed to ensure biohazard protection to avoid biological contamination, and other tis she had to carry out aseptic preparations in advance to avoid affecting experintal results. Aseptic processing took ti, and biohazard protection required donning cumberso protective suits, which she didn’t particularly like wearing.
"You all should also prepare a draft design based on your own needs," Zheng Yichen then told Katrina and the others.
While it was fine to make direct requests, too many demands would result in price increases at Dusk. Providing design plans would avoid that issue. He had plenty of rit points to use when needed, but he tried to avoid waste where possible.
As for Tanshia Firlo, she already had the Holy Relic of Life, so the strengthening could be done on top of its existing foundation; the extra effects would depend on the materials themselves.
The three little ones still hadn’t replied, so Zheng Yichen first approached Tia to inquire about pricing.
"The uniqueness of the World Tree seed ans it cannot be used on multiple pieces of equipnt; you can only choose one target. The branches and leaves of the World Tree don’t have this problem."
"Only one, huh." Confirming this, Zheng Yichen was sowhat disappointed; he had considered this possibility.
But after Tia said it herself, it ant there was completely no hope, otherwise he had been hoping to use this ’slting’ opportunity to incorporate the World Tree’s attributes in all the equipnt that was being strengthened or crafted...
Using a single World Tree seed as if it were a dozen.
"Then I’ll use it on my main weapon." Although Lilith was an important ’wife’, her main body was a vessel, only capable of playing a supporting role in combat; the primary enhancent should still be on the weapon, as for the other equipnt, they could use the World Tree’s prival branches and leaves.
If they all could carry the attributes of the World Tree, they should be able to link with the strengthened weapon, similar to the Divine Domain he unleashed, with the fishing rod casting Divine Domain, Lilith could directly network physically, assisting Zheng Yichen in more precise manipulation of Divine Domain.
As long as the Divine Domain lasted longer, using it to ram into enemies was almost like a technologically advanced galactic warship ramming into foes.
And Lilith would be the ’Divine Domain warship’s’ intelligent program.
There was also the enhancent of other equipnt and the fabrication of so new equipnt. Ahn Ke and the others’ new equipnt would definitely incorporate other materials, such as Evil God’s cremains granules, God’s Corpse cremains granules, Apocalypse Stone, and so on, as long as their attributes didn’t conflict.
Without the harmonizing stone, he would have to let it go.
As for customizing equipnt, if he was to do it, he should do it thoroughly. Zheng Yichen had his own plans, thinking about the future. After the battle in the Great World, he felt that he should leave sothing behind. Otherwise, what would happen to the people around him if he suddenly disappeared?
And then there was the future when Firmant Wheel could actually be miniaturized, he would then be operating with a ’city’ on the move. The interior of the Firmant Wheel would also require a workforce; he could recruit a scientific research team, mages, etc. Katrina and the others should always have equipnt worthy of their position, right?
"Weapon enhancent will require 60 rit points, with the rest estimated to consu between 35 and 40."
"That’s acceptable."
