Chapter 420: The Revelations of the Rune and the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree

Following a dull roar from underground, the earth trembled.

A violent explosion sounded, and the underground Earth Energy root network was instantly destroyed.

And the surrounding facilities that required a continuous supply of Earth Energy also slowly came to a halt at this moment.

Beneath the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was a vast, permanent underground project that supplied it with power, a place for Earth Energy conversion.

This was a huge, self-operating Earth Energy stable supply station that only needed regular maintenance every year.

Over the years, it had become the exclusive Earth Energy supply facility for this Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

The Earth Energy it converted was barely enough for the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree to perform its normal work.

And with the development of technology and the continuous iteration of Earth Energy conversion techniques, the Earth Energy produced by this Earth Energy supply facility was completely sufficient to supply the operation of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree at the current stage.

The excess Earth Energy was used for the educational cause of Lanath University and the Earth Energy supply of its surrounding public facilities.

So, following that muffled explosion, the originally brightly lit road surface was completely plunged into darkness at this moment.

Even though there were not many people on the road at this point, accidents still occurred frequently in the dark night.

The damage to the Earth Energy supply network also led to a large number of Plant Network access anomalies.

This accident had a huge impact on the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

As the main tree was affected, the other Myriad Connection Main Network Trees around the world, which were cultivated based on the main tree, were also affected.

Although this was not enough to completely destroy the Plant Network in this world, problems such as momentary lags and data stream loss followed one after another.

And the most panicked at this moment were naturally those Plant Network maintainers who were fighting on the front lines in the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

They hurriedly checked the equipment.

It was obvious that they could not fix this anomaly.

They only needed to confirm during this period that under the condition of insufficient Earth Energy supply, the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree would not suffer irreversible damage because of this incident, and at the same time, they also had to start implementing backup plans and emergency measures.

At the same time, they were also praying that no accidents would happen, and that the repair team would solve the problem quickly.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have the ability to do anything they wanted.

After all, they were the maintainers of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree, not the people who repaired the Earth Energy conversion, and they had not learned what to do if the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was attacked.

Who would dare to do such a thing?

Those Secret Diggers didn't dare either.

Even though they had become much bolder a few days ago and came over, it was just a small skirmish, and they didn't even need to take action.

And the temporary repair team here could not go deep underground to repair the large-scale Earth Energy root system.

They were just an emergency team for dealing with small-scale Earth Energy root fractures, not all-rounders.

It could be said that this accident instantly exposed the hidden dangers in their comfort, and there was not even a single chance of saving the situation.

At this moment, they could only listen to the alarm outside and worry.

And as the matter of the main Myriad Connection Main Network Tree being attacked quickly reached the important high-level officials of various countries in this small world, no matter what they were doing at the moment, whether it was having a meeting, sleeping, or something else, this matter had to be taken seriously.

After all, no matter what, that was the source of their entire civilization's Plant Network development.

They naturally couldn't just do nothing.

...

"Damn it, is it because my function is not important that you just gave up on my side? Are you going to write my report for me..."

At this time, a middle-aged woman in the uniform of a Myriad Connection Main Network Tree maintainer complained directly.

Although she said so, her hands moved quickly.

The screen that appeared on the structure of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree, a screen of condensed Earth Energy, displayed various windows in a simple and clear manner.

And at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared here, as if out of thin air.

And along with the appearance of this figure, the sound of a special identification system also sounded.

"Unknown individual detected, initiating facial recognition..."

"Who?"

Following this sudden voice, this woman suddenly turned around.

Because there should be no second person here besides her.

So when she turned around, she saw a smiling girl looking at her.

Before she could react, two spells instantly subdued her.

"Silence, Imprisonment."

At this moment, I casually threw out two spells, and then a small mirror spell directly covered my surroundings.

If it weren't for the fact that I didn't have any invisibility spells, I wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.

However, a method like a mirror cover was barely enough to deal with the system identification here.

And when the mirror spell was removed by me, my figure had completely changed, becoming the woman who was now paralyzed on the ground.

"Facial recognition successful, Ms. Han Hui..."

At this moment, the real Ms. Han Hui was already bound by the imprisonment spell and paralyzed on the ground, her mouth open but unable to make a sound because of the silence spell.

And she looked in astonishment at the person in front of her who was almost a carbon copy of herself, full of disbelief.

Then, fear filled her thoughts.

And I didn't care what she thought.

I took off the uniform she was wearing and put it on.

The clothes were a bit big, but it didn't matter.

"Thank you, I'll borrow your identity for a while."

I smiled at her with her appearance, and then began to check if she had anything else on her, such as some kind of permission.

But at this moment, Ms. Han Hui's eyes were full of despair.

She didn't know who this person in front of her was, or how they got in.

But she was sure that she was definitely not a maintenance staff of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

At this moment, I, who had inherited the identity of this lady, also came to this operation screen.

Although I was not familiar with the operation here, after using it for a while, I had roughly mastered the skills.

After using and observing for a period of time, I found that the equipment here was far better than the "computer" I had assembled at that time, because it was a part of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree itself.

The entire Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was actually a hollow large treehouse with a complex internal structure.

The fact that it grew into this shape was also due to human intervention.

It was obvious that this person was operating something just now, but I was too lazy to find out.

Now... I had already arrived inside the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

As soon as I came here, I felt a huge flow of information flowing in this large tree.

Such a huge information flow processing ability was really beyond my expectations.

Perhaps the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree itself had such an ability, but after witnessing it with my own eyes, I still felt that it was really terrifying.

After sighing, that rune appeared in my hand again.

When it was condensed by me, I felt a strong "sense of fit" with this place, as if it no longer needed me to gild the lily and make it into a spell.

Immediately, a kind of enlightened revelation made me understand what I needed to do at this moment.

I came to the "wall" on the side.

In fact, it's called a wall, but everything here is actually a part of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

I maintained my connection with the rune and integrated it into the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

Immediately, this rune extended countless veins like before from the place where it was integrated.

At this moment, it was no longer just a large tree formed by veins, but a derivative vein with this Myriad Connection Main Network Tree as the main body!

And I no longer hesitated, and activated my magic power to convert it into elemental energy to supply it.

Although I knew that this rune was no longer a spell, I could feel its desire for transcendent energy.

The remaining Earth Energy supply of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was squeezed dry at this moment.

I was probably its only source of energy.

It seemed that I was going to be used as a power generator.

...

And at this time, the Plant Network maintenance personnel who were still inside the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree had no idea what had happened, because the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree had completely escaped their control at this moment.

They watched helplessly as the golden veins appeared from under their feet, beside them, and above their heads.

All the artificially intervened internal structures seemed to be experiencing a serious rejection reaction and began to restore themselves at this moment.

If these maintenance personnel were to look at the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree from the outside, they would find that this tree, which had been in a fixed shape for a long time, was actually stretching!

And the protective facility grafted on it was also broken at this moment.

The branches of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree that stretched out broke through the roof like a young sprout breaking through the seed coat.

How could it be restricted by a creation grafted by itself?

All of this happened so suddenly that many people could not react in time.

The internal structure of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was slowly "healing," and any artificially intervened creations and structures were meaningless under "natural growth."

At this moment, the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was only following its own instincts to repair its own internal errors.

It was like a living thing.

The golden veins had already appeared on its surface at this moment, and the winding trend seemed to form the most natural runes...

And those maintenance personnel were either "rejected" from the body by the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree, or they were permanently left in the main trunk, becoming a trivial nutrient.

Such a drastic change directly stunned the emergency personnel outside.

No one knew why the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree had undergone such a violent change.

And such a strange golden vein also extended along the root system of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree to the root network that covered the entire world's surface, and it spread outwards in a very rapid manner.

At this moment, in the areas where this vein extended, they all found that the Plant Network was experiencing a crazy lag, and then it became completely inaccessible.

This trend gradually spread from the night hemisphere to the day hemisphere.

At this moment, the countries on the other side of the day were still in the peak period of Plant Network use, but soon they found that the Plant Network, which had long been integrated into their daily habits, was suddenly inaccessible.

All of this... was a storm caused by that single rune.

It was like a small stone thrown into the lake called the Plant Network, and the ripples it set off spread throughout the world at an extremely fast speed.

This world did not develop things like satellites.

The global coverage of the Plant Network was enough for them to do many things with the help of the Plant Network, and at this moment, the paralysis of the Plant Network instantly made them lose their ability to communicate online.

They could not imagine that such a thing would happen in the world one day!

Even if the main Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was completely destroyed, according to their plan and layout that had continued until now, the joint operation of the Myriad Connection Main Network Trees all over the world would only cause a slight lag in the global Plant Network.

They could at least bear this cost, but they simply could not imagine that this catastrophe that affected the whole world would happen right under their noses.

No one could destroy so many Myriad Connection Main Network Trees right under their noses.

What's more, just in case, the number of hidden Myriad Connection Main Network Trees was far more than the number announced.

Even the world war that those Secret Diggers started back then was not enough to threaten them with the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

At this moment, the high-level officials of various countries also thought of the attack on the main Myriad Connection Main Network Tree on Lanath Island not long ago.

Their reaction to this was flat, but they still had to pretend to be anxious.

That's right, that main Myriad Connection Main Network Tree on Lanath Island was indeed very important.

But with the development of society, Lanath Island also gradually deviated from the center of the world and began to be marginalized.

And the country of Lanath Island was still living off its old capital and the foundation of its ancestors.

If it weren't for the fact that they still had an educational method that they couldn't understand, Lanath Island would definitely have fallen out of its important international position.

...

At this moment, inside the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

"Yes... yes! That's it... so that's how it is!"

I was excitedly suppressing my excitement, but even so, I couldn't help but speak a little incoherently.

Excited emotions took the high ground at this moment.

"Phew phew... calm down, I almost got controlled by my emotions again. Sure enough, my composure is still a bit poor, but... this is really incredible..."

I took a deep breath and quickly calmed down.

It's not my fault for being so excited.

The feat I just accomplished was really too terrifying!

And all of this was done without the Academy Head's layout, relying only on myself to get to this point.

Of course... I also have to thank the people of this small world.

It was their brilliant minds and countless years of technological accumulation that saved me a huge number of steps.

This Myriad Connection Main Network Tree is the greatest gift they have given me!

At this moment, unlike those maintenance personnel who were rejected, as a person with a strong connection to this rune, at this moment, I had already completely controlled this Myriad Connection Main Network Tree through this rune!

This rune had shed the rune ritual I had previously completed for it.

At this moment, it used the veins extended by the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree to form "natural runes."

With these runes, it automatically formed a vast and self-contained spell system.

It was just like my experience in the Fool's Village secret realm back then.

The only difference was that at that time, the meditation method was constructed by the Academy Head, and this time, the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was constructed by the people of this world.

But they were missing the most important thing, and now I have completed it for them.

At this moment, I was in the central hollow of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

As long as I wanted, I could control the main network tree to send me to any place in this main network tree.

But this was meaningless.

My role here was to act as an energy supply.

The Earth Energy supply was already stretched thin at this moment, so I had to supply it with energy.

Also... I was learning about its functions through the "artificial intelligence" in the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

That's right, an auxiliary artificial intelligence.

An auxiliary artificial intelligence developed by the maintenance personnel in the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree to help them understand the situation of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

It was used to get more specific data and information feedback from the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

After all, if they wanted to perform maintenance work, they first needed the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree to provide error feedback before they could perform maintenance.

After the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree was freed from human traces, I deliberately retained this function.

And the various permissions it set were also rendered useless after I completely controlled this Myriad Connection Main Network Tree.

At this moment, the artificial intelligence was no longer just a "program setting," but had truly become a part of the main network tree.

It dominated the internal data and information that was like a torrent, as well as the processing capabilities.

But... was my biggest gain this time completely taking over this Myriad Connection Main Network Tree?

I don't think so.

Perhaps by doing so, I have mastered the lifeblood of this world, but I am not interested in the power of this world.

My real gain... was a spell model that was completely and strongly related to [Transcendent Knowledge], formed by the combination of the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree as a foundation and the rune I obtained through revelation!

The "natural runes" formed by the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree under the extension of the veins were the best interpretation of the rune I controlled.

And at this moment, the first stage of spell derivation was half complete.

The remaining things would require me to spend a lot of time constantly studying and completing, to see if there would be any more gains.

Perhaps... I should also go to the Myriad Connection Main Network Trees in other places to see the situation.

I might have a lot of gains there, and it might be the opportunity to completely perfect this spell!

It might even give me a chance to touch that sliver of possibility of [Transcendent Knowledge]!
