The "screen" of the World Tree is actually in this position.
No wonder there is such a space inexplicably wrapped by roots under the World Tree.
"Oh oh..." Coco lay on Xu Xin's shoulder, looking at the virtual images on the four screens.
The four screens were dim at first and you couldn't see what was on them.
Only the screen that Xu Ying had just slid open showed an image the moment she touched it.
Xu Xin could tell at a glance that this was an overall map of the world in the entire World Tree, with everything from terrain to distance data.
The terrain of the entire World Tree World is completely flat and without any undulations. Judging from the data, the size is similar to what Xu Xin and his team had estimated before.
Xu Xin stretched out his hand and swiped the screen, and the scene changed immediately.
The field of view can be zoomed in or the angle can be changed.
It's like playing a game from a God's perspective.
Xu Xin saw the area that was being cultivated by the explorers. It was located in the entire World Tree World, close to the center and slightly southeast.
He zoomed in and could immediately see the specific situation of that area very clearly.
Xu Xin immediately spotted Li Wenxi who was about to enter his tree house.
"Oh! I see my sister-in-law!" Xu Ying said in surprise, "It's so clear!"
"Huh? Why are you so surprised? Don't you know the power of the World Tree?" Xu Xin looked at her with some surprise.
"It's clear. The world trees we lived in before were managed by us, and we had certain permissions. However, this world tree is special."
Xu Ying slid her hand across the scene on the screen with great interest, looking at the newly reclaimed area from a bird's-eye view.
"The world tree we lived in before was much smaller than the one Shi Wanyun had been to. There was no map at all, and there was no need for this function." She tapped her lips. "Also, because our world tree is relatively small, it has several layers inside. If we really observe it from a bird's-eye view like this, we won't be able to see anything, right?"
really.
This perspective is somewhat similar to a satellite map.
Only in a small world like the one in this world tree can one look down on everything.
"Hmm... I can't see the tree house or the inside of the house, what a pity." Xu Ying adjusted her field of vision and said with regret.
"What are you doing in the tree house? Are you spying on others?" Xu Xin said unhappily.
"Hehe." Xu Ying did not deny it, and then looked at Xu Xin, "Um, brother, you have map ability, right?"
Xu Xin nodded.
In his mind, there is actually a map of the entire World Tree. Of course, his map ability cannot be used for peeking. It is just a bird's-eye view of the structure from a fixed perspective. Even the people and animals on it are just spots of light.
"The map ability of this world tree might be the one you added to the world tree seed." Xu Ying grabbed the screen twice to restore the map to a size that could see the whole picture. "After all, you are the only one among us who has this technology."
oh…
In other words, his own map ability is likely to be a degraded version of the map ability of this world tree
interesting.
"Okay, let's look at other screens!"
Xu Ying waved at the shadow on the second screen.
The second screen also lit up.
It is still a beautiful scenery.
"Jungle?" Xu Xin was slightly stunned. "This side is outside the World Tree?"
This side is obviously the jungle outside the World Tree.
Xu Xin saw the jungle and the lake where the giant anaconda lived.
The jungle seemed to be still, and the birds in the sky were basically stagnant. It could be seen that the flow of time outside was very slow.
"Oh, this function is also available on normal World Trees. You can observe the scene around the World Tree, and you can also control the roots of the World Tree through the screen. Watch me!"
As she spoke, Xu Ying swiped the screen horizontally, and the screen was instantly stretched!
The elongated part circled around the platform where the two people were and connected with the other side of the screen, instantly forming an omnidirectional panoramic circular screen.
"Hmm?" Coco raised her little head and looked around.
Xu Ying swiped upwards again, and the top of the screen began to stretch, and then the entire screen shadow closed.
The originally rectangular screen turned into a hemispherical shape, covering Xu Xin and Xu Ying on the platform.
And the scene on the screen is exactly the scene of the World Tree on all sides!
Even on the platform beneath his feet, images appeared.
Crystal City.
It is a crystal city enveloped by the canopy of the World Tree.
Standing here and watching the scene on the screen, Xu Xin felt as if he had become the world tree, observing the surroundings from the perspective of a giant.
"嘤!" Coco jumped off Xu Xin's shoulder, approached the ground, and scratched the image of the Crystal City reflected on the ground with her little paws.
"It can be done this way!" Xu Ying waved her hand downwards.
Suddenly, a root stretched straight into the ground.
The roots penetrated into the ground easily like a bullet poking tofu.
"To control the roots outside the World Tree here, we rely on the World Tree itself. We don't need to expend any energy." Xu Ying waved her hand, and suddenly all the hanging aerial roots outside the World Tree began to twist slightly.
"Wow, it can be done this way!" Xu Xin said in surprise.
Xu Ying waved her hand again, and the roots stopped moving. "Didn't you just say that petrified creatures would attack? This could come in handy, but I don't think it matters. Those petrified creatures can't do any harm to the World Tree anyway."
"It's always good to have a method... Hmm? Wait a minute." Xu Xin reacted and frowned, "Just now, the speed of time outside... is the same as inside again?"
If the speed of time was different, the root movement just demonstrated would have appeared very slow in the eyes of Xu Xin and the others.
"Ah... I must have affected you." Xu Ying said embarrassedly, "Because I wanted to show you, I subconsciously affected the flow of time to be the same. Now it has recovered."
The scenery in all directions has returned to its original flow rate, but the bird that was suspended in the air just now has no idea where it has flown to.
The situation in which Xu Ying subconsciously affected the flow of time was basically the same as the situation when Xu Xin spoke before.
Xu Xin immediately asked the question in his mind: "How do we affect the speed of time?"
"Hmm... This is also the first time I've come across a world tree that is affected by the power of time and space."
Xu Ying felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm not sure how to control it. We speculated that when we transformed this seed, the owner of the World Tree could adjust the speed of time in the World Tree, but only... adjust the speed of time in the World Tree to the same as the outside world, and cannot adjust it to other speeds."
"But I don't know how to adjust it." Xu Xin took over the conversation and took Coco, who had climbed up his legs again, into his arms.
"Ahahaha..." Xu Ying laughed awkwardly, "There's nothing we can do. We only have this one World Tree Seed, so we can't test it at all."
“… It’s a good thing you guys dared to modify it, and weren’t afraid of it being destroyed.” Xu Xin shook his head.
"But it turns out that our choice was correct." Xu Ying raised her head, "And we are also very familiar with the World Tree itself, so we are still very confident."
"Does full confidence mean the error is from three times the speed of time to a hundred times the speed of time?" Xu Xin joked.
"Hmm..." Xu Ying was speechless and immediately changed the subject, reaching out to the third screen, "Let's take a look at the next one!"
The third screen lit up.
Familiar interface and options.
Obviously, this screen is similar to the one in the tree house.
"Finally I found this side." Xu Ying looked at the options above, "We gave those people the power to control the World Tree on this screen."
“Hmm…?” Xu Xin’s eyes suddenly shrank.
"This is… "
He reached out and tapped the screen.
He saw that there was an option for World Tree Communication!
World Tree Communication?!
"Ah, that is an option for communication between world trees." Xu Ying explained, "In the world tree we lived in, we could communicate at any time inside the world tree, but we could only contact other world trees through this method."
"We can actually contact other world trees..."
Xu Xin looked at the page that appeared after clicking the World Tree Communication option and was shocked again.
Three signals...
Can this connect to the other three world trees?!
"These three world trees should be the three closest ones." Xu Ying was also surprised. "They are the world trees I mentioned before, planted on the supporting pillars of the underground world, at least a thousand kilometers away from us. I didn't expect that we can actually establish a connection."
"These three world trees will be..."
"They should all be human." Xu Ying directly clicked on one of them. "Try to contact them, and you'll know, right?"
"Hey! You..." Xu Xin didn't react until he saw the request was sent out, and his eyes widened immediately, "Are you... a little too careless?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Xu Ying looked indifferent.
"Will it affect their thinking whether we contact them or not? Besides, the people living on the World Tree on this half of the Earth should all be human lackeys. Those alien invaders would not live on half of the planet. Maybe we can contact the mysterious voice that has been playing tricks on you before."
It really doesn't seem to matter.
The hemispherical screen had not yet been retracted. After Xu Ying clicked on the communication button, the speed of time outside became the same as that inside again.
Xu Xin suddenly had an epiphany.
This World Tree has the ability to temporarily slow down the flow of time to the same speed as the outside world. I'm afraid this is to allow people inside the World Tree to communicate with the outside world without hindrance, right
The request rang for more than ten seconds.
Unfortunately, the other party did not accept the communication and instead disconnected it directly.
The scene outside froze immediately.
"Ah! Was it rejected?" Xu Ying did not try other world trees, but made a request to that world tree again.
As a result, the connection is no longer possible.
"Could they be blocked?" Xu Ying said helplessly, "What are they doing? We are all human beings, isn't it good to keep in touch with each other? However, they are so afraid to contact us, it seems that they are indeed lackeys. Forget it, let's not try, we should get down to business."
The two immediately found the permissions they wanted in the options.
Click on the option and the page will show a list of all the people currently in the World Tree.
Xu Xin found the names of the explorer members and gave them permission to enter and exit the World Tree and use the elevator.
"If they come here, can they also control these screens?" Xu Xin asked Xu Ying.
"Well, this screen can only be controlled by the owner of the World Tree." Xu Ying pointed to the screen of options, "After all, this involves the authority of the World Tree itself. But the other two, they can control them."
Xu Ying pointed to the World Tree world map screen and the hemispherical screen that was still covering it.
Xu Xin nodded and looked at the other options on the screen.
These are some familiar options
There are some options above, which are all common options that are available in the tree house at the beginning.
"This world tree actually has the ability to form functional areas..." Xu Ying was a little surprised. "This is really surprising. There are no rooms or floors here. Could it be that it divides the land into functional areas?"
Functional area
"For example, planting areas and animal husbandry areas?" Xu Xin thought of the outside plans.
"Oh!" Xu Ying clapped her hands. "Great! Urban functional area planning?"
Xu Xin looked at the last side.
"What about the fourth side?"
He immediately reached out and lit up the fourth screen.
There is only one option on the entire screen.
Time flow control
"Ah! This screen is...!" Xu Ying's eyes lit up when she saw this option.
Xu Xin immediately clicked on the option.
Manual time flow control: After it is turned on, the time flow inside the World Tree will be slowed down to the same speed as the outside world, making it easier for members inside the World Tree to communicate with the outside world.
Automatic time flow control: After it is turned on, the holder of the World Tree can control the flow of time through consciousness.
Xu Xin and Xu Ying looked at each other.
"Turn off the automatic controls!"
The two reached an agreement and immediately turned off the automatic time flow control.
Although it is convenient for both of them to control the flow of time with their consciousness, it is easy to cause problems.
Let's temporarily fix the speed of time flow at one hundred to one.
Although this may prevent them from communicating across internal and external channels at any time, it is still safer.
After all, the two of them couldn't even control it stably.
"Are you done? It's time to go upstairs, brother! I have something to tell you!"
Before Xu Xin wanted to see the functions of those screens, Xu Ying grabbed his wrist and initiated the teleportation.
…
"I told you, tell me before you teleport." Xu Xin shook his head helplessly.
"Hmm..." Keke hid far away, as if he had a shadow on Xu Ying. For some reason, this little guy was a little afraid of Xu Ying's teleportation ability.
"I was the one who was startled!" Li Wenxi complained, "You two suddenly appeared in my tree house, I almost screamed..."
Xu Ying was teleported to Li Wenxi's tree house.
"Uh... blame her." Xu Xin pointed at Xu Ying, somewhat helplessly, "So what's the matter? Why are you so anxious to come up here?"
"There is one matter that is indeed urgent." Xu Ying looked at Li Wenxi, "It's about the underground world below us."
What's next
"Ah! It's about the underground human base!" Li Wenxi suddenly realized.
She sat next to Xu Xin and explained to him, "Xu Xin, your mind-reading ability should be able to read the thoughts of those people in the human base, right?"
Humans in the underground base...
Xu Xin was stunned for a moment, then his eyes suddenly opened.
hiss-
yes!
Those humans have never experienced time travel.
They have been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years!
If Xu Xin's inference about his mind-reading ability was correct, then he could indeed read the thoughts of that group of humans!
