Even the well-informed Shen Cong had never seen a large tree that was more than 800 meters tall and nearly a thousand meters high. However, Shen Cong saw it on a low mountain near Chengdu City in the Sichuan Basin.
This is an oak tree, I don't know what kind of oak it is.
"Oh haha, oh haha, my story, that's a long story to tell." The oak tree heard Shen Cong wanting to know its story and said with a smile. Although it can't make a sound, it can express the emotion of laughter. And the whole body's values trembled, making a rustling sound.
"My name is Oak Lan, which is the name you humans gave me. In fact, I prefer to call myself 'the green tree, the appreciator of nature'. There is no doubt that I am a tree. I grow here, even though I can move. But it never moved, even when the big fire spirit came to trouble me."
Shen Cong simply ignored Oak Mulan's self-titled name.
As a brainless plant, it is now classified as a Tree King Kong, ranking among the ranks of intelligent races. This is already a very high level of praise. She also wants to come up with a random name, which has no sense of elegance and beauty. Of course Shen Cong will not pay attention to it. .
"The Great Fire Spirit didn't kill you and eat you?"
"Of course not. Even though it's very laborious for me to move, when I'm pretending, even if you stand in front of me, you won't be able to find out that I have any conditions worthy of your action." Oak Lan described confidently.
At that time, I could only see it concentrating and holding its breath.
The next moment, Shen Congbian discovered that he could not sense the core-level activity waves of the Oak Orchid, as if the big tree he saw blocking the sky and the sun was really just an ordinary tree that was not worth looking at.
There is nothing surprising about it except that it is big.
Of course, such a simple disguise cannot confuse Shen Cong. After all, the trunk of the oak orchid is hundreds of meters thick, and the branches are winding and winding. The King Kong is enough to climb along the trunk of the oak orchid, all the way up to The top of the tree. Such a magnificent tree, no matter how ordinary it is, is extraordinary.
But for fire spirits or evolved beasts, once the oak orchid turns on its camouflage, in their eyes, it is just an ordinary big tree, and they will not pay much attention to it when they pass by.
This is one of the reasons why Oak Orchid has been able to grow to this day.
Another reason is that when it was discovered, it had a hazy consciousness. Then the humans who discovered it were not like Shen Cong, a research maniac who madly tortured the Thunder Giant Sequoia, but used the Oak Orchid as a barrier to avoid danger. .Over time, communication channels were established with Oak Orchid.
Moreover, it affected Oak Orchid's consciousness growth, making it very close to humans.
"I eat wind and rain, I bathe in the sun, I dig deep into the soil, and I spread green shade." Like a bard, Oak Orchid uses a series of parallels to describe his experience of growing up in trees, "Someone asked me the meaning of existence, I I can’t answer it accurately, but I understand that growth is my most important goal.”
The story of the oak orchid is a story of continuous growth.
"Upwards, downwards, and around, I am getting bigger, my talents are getting higher, and my consciousness is getting clearer. I have witnessed the earth overturning, cracks exposing my roots, leaving me helpless; volcanoes erupting The torrent of magma flooded my trunk and burned my bark; flowers bloomed and fell, and countless beasts and birds surrounded me fighting for life and death."
Shen Cong then interrupted its singing: "Your story doesn't seem long, so what the evolved beasts are fighting for around you is the essence of Mulan?"
Mulan essence is the biggest factor that the builders of the Shu region told the giant panda Qiuya and the red panda Huanhuan to break through the particle level.
They said that all the Mulan essence in stock was given to Shen Cong because other evolvers and evolved beasts could not swallow the Mulan essence and would not digest it after eating it.
The essence of magnolia is the dark acorn.
Acorns are the fruit that the chipmunk in "Ice Age" has been chasing all his life.
Since magnolia essence is an acorn, it is conceivable that it originates from oak orchids and is the fruit condensed from oak orchids. The quantity is very small. The total number of fruits produced in the past two years is only 125.
Thirty-two of them were swallowed by Qiu Ya and Huan Huan, 16 were studied and consumed by the builders of Shu, and the remaining seventy-seven were consumed.
"Strictly speaking, the magnolia essence is not my fruit. It's just that I absorbed the energy from the fire fragments and couldn't digest it, so it grew from the branches in the form of a fruit." Oak Lan naturally knows the source of the magnolia essence. As it says, there is a shard of fire in the ground where it takes root.
The oak orchid can only grow into a nuclear-level tree by constantly absorbing this fire fragment.
In the records of the new government, it is the only evolutionary tree that has reached the nuclear level.
The strongest tree king.
But it has almost no combat capability, and its only function is to provide human habitation. Yes, there is a large area of buildings growing in the canopy of the oak orchid, which belongs to a settlement of Shu builders.
"I can grow magnolia essence, naturally grow houses that can be lived in, I can control my bark, and I like the feeling of humans walking on me."
The Oak Orchid is very similar to the Elven World Tree in the game "World of Warcraft".
In the game, elves live on the World Tree, and the new world that is happening on Earth also has such extraordinary scenes that are breathtaking.
…
Shen Cong is not just chatting with Oak Mulan.
After consulting Oak Mulan, Qiu Ya, and Huan Huan's ingestion situation, Shen Cong has already figured out what the essence of Mulan actually is.
Oak orchid is a new structural state of fire fragments, which is produced through the absorption, transportation and enrichment of plants.
This structural state is difficult to absorb and utilize. Only evolved individuals at the particle level or about to reach the particle level can barely use it.
So Qiuya and Huanhuan jumped to the particle level with the help of Mulan essence.
At the particle level, pure Mulan Essence can no longer push their metal base towards higher decay source nuclides. As for other evolvers and evolved beasts, they are not talented enough and their metal base cannot obtain the energy of Mulan Essence.
Shen Cong hunted three fire spirits and saved the Shu builders' population of more than 1.4 million.
Of course the other party would contribute all the essence of Mulan.
"Try to absorb one and see if I can rely on the essence of Mulan to push my metal base towards a higher decay system!" Shen Cong obtained the materials and information he wanted, decisively left the human settlement and came to a fire Hang the river and carry out repairs.
Electric sparks will devour.
Mulan essence should also be swallowed.
Shen Cong felt a kind of happiness.
Happiness is watching one's own strength grow stronger day by day; it is the Predator's status as stable as Mount Tai; it is the Transformers and Battlestar projects in full swing; it is the dream of breaking out of the earth and traveling in the universe gradually approaching.
"The taste is very weird, not much different from a lump of iron. If it weren't for my good teeth, I really wouldn't be able to chew this magnolia essence."
Bite it into pieces and eat it, then enter the intestines and stomach for digestion and absorption.
Ten minutes later, Shen Cong's eyes lit up. A powerful energy spread from the intestines and stomach, extended to the limbs and bones, and disappeared deep into every cell. In the energy diffusion, he could clearly feel the improvement.
"Talent, 6.618h, 0.002h higher than the previous 6.616h. This is the effect of a piece of Mulan essence."
Take another piece of magnolia essence.
Ten minutes later, Shen Cong once again felt the improvement of his talent: "6.62h, another 0.002h amplitude, but slightly smaller than the previous amplitude, probably the effect is decreasing. I have seventy-seven pieces of Mulan Essence. According to this level It decreases gradually, and the effect will be zero at about the forty-seventh time."
Calculate silently in your mind and the result is clear.
Of the forty-seven pieces of Mulan essence that can be taken, 6 pieces of it can bring him 0.057h of talent improvement as expected.
This will bring his talent to 6.675h.
"Coupled with the fact that electric sparks continue to provide me with energy to improve my talents, I can break through the particle-level 6.811h standard and it will be just around the corner."
