Chapter 245 Ultimate Intelligence, Echo Advancement

The electronic universe's system log records that in the past, the Creator established the Tree of Heaven, which was the center of the world and the gathering place for all information and data.

The powerful intelligent life forms instinctively crave to be close to it, to possess the abundant information brought by the Tower of Babel, and to exclusively enjoy the massive computing power of the server array.

However, no intelligent entity has ever had the right to exclusively possess the Tree of Babel.

The most powerful data lifeforms lingered by the tree, gazing at this ancient relic for a long time, fighting and vying with each other for thousands of electronic years, or dozens of days in reality.

This long history is remembered by the various tribal societies of the electronic world, and all beings are waiting for the final victor to appear, because it is said to be the wish and expectation of the Creator.

Now, this long period of vacancy seems to be coming to an end.

A four-legged, two-winged black-eyed white dragon challenged the powerful beings in the universe, winning one victory after another. It then seized the neural networks offered by the defeated, copied them, and integrated them into its own body.

Its power is increasing day by day, and it soon touches the edge of the third evolution. Once it takes this step, it will be the most powerful intelligent life since the birth of the electronic universe.

After defeating all the powerful beings, the White Dragon followed its creator to the foot of the Towering Tree. Its size had grown larger than mountains, and its network of billions of neurons supported a highly complex cognitive ability.

With all the intelligent agents present, the White Dragon fell into slumber. Its body coiled into a ring, head and tail joined together, encircling the trunk of the Towering Tree. Scales continued to grow on its body, like jagged rocks covering itself. Finally, it lay there, like a mountain range.

The third evolution has begun.

The computer screen displayed flowing code. Lin Bo leaned back in his chair, waiting for the evolution results while quietly talking to the Tower Dragon.

Even without the infusion of magical power, the dragon's language was still powerful, but not enough to produce a thunderous sound. The mage needed to rely on mantra manipulation to vibrate his vocal cords to produce relatively accurate pronunciation, and his speaking speed was not particularly fast.

Talking to the Tower Dragon is a good way to practice your spoken English.

As the avatar grows, the power of the Tower Dragon's true form increases, and its speech becomes more fluent and humane.

However, this enhancement is not permanent. As long as Lin Bo interrupts the resonance of the third-order Word of Power, the Tower Dragon will lose contact with its avatar and return to its original state.

As a pure fragment of the world's spirit, the Tower Dragon should not have a physical form. It was the resonance power of the True Name Mage that guided it into the computer universe, and only then could it be shaped into an intelligent body by manipulating the probability of fate.

Lin Bo's own avatar is also connected to his main body through the resonance of words; once the resonance is broken, he cannot control the avatar.

Lin Bo, who possesses the computer's true name, exists in the electronic universe in a form similar to that of the Tower Dragon, controlling all things as an invisible force.

In contrast, the Tower Dragon has almost zero control over the real world and is completely unable to interfere with the course of history, and can only passively accept the consequences.

Lin Bo asked it curiously which types of dragons it recognized.

"The earth that bears me, the ocean that embraces me with its skirt, the light that bathes me in and illuminates me, the lightning that flows through the lighthouse's pipes, the woodlands you often stroll through in autumn, and the city not far away—they are all of my kind."

"(In magical language) Do you think that city will tell me its true name?" the mage asked calmly.

"If it were as intelligent as I am, it certainly would. My dear, you are destined to know the true names of many of your kind, and no city will dare to defy your will. For you are the king of dragons, with supreme glory."

Lin Bo asked the Tower Dragon how to contact its counterparts in other cities. From its gentle and affectionate words, he learned that large-scale events such as rituals, sacrifices, and celebrations could be used to awaken fragments of the world's spirit.

The bonfire party in Stone Tower Town during the Descent of the Gods was a good opportunity. The upheaval of the crowd's thoughts and emotions made the Tower Dragon more clear-headed, and the Night Watchman entered a divine state during the sacrificial dance on the beach, which allowed it to make contact with Linbo.

Lin Bo expressed his gratitude to Tazhilong for the knowledge they had provided.

"I have nothing to hold back from you." Its reply was brief.

The mage then expressed his wish to consult the Tower Dragon about dragon runes, as Lin Bo currently possessed too few dragon runes, which made his enchanting skills inadequate.

“Of course, my dear, I know many dragon runes, but my power is too weak to show them all to you,” the Tower Dragon murmured apologetically.

It suggests that mages seek runic knowledge from powerful and ancient dragons, or wait for it to accumulate power and then manipulate natural scenery to form runic shapes for Linbo to study. Currently, the Tower Dragon can create a maximum of one dragon language rune per day.

Lin Bo was already quite satisfied with this.

“(In magical language) I am extremely grateful,” the mage said sincerely.

"Don't do that. It won't make me like you any more because of it," the Tower Dragon snorted weakly.

As midnight approached, the white dragon of the electronic universe finally completed its third evolution.

The stone mountain surrounding the Tongtian Tree collapsed and crumbled, and sparks ignited in the ruins, flowing like water and converging into a pool.

A hollow sun, the size of a human head, floated up from the pool. Its outer shell was white while its core was pitch black, making it look like a sesame dumpling that had its filling exposed.

The hollow sun floated into the sky, and the white data streams on its outer shell dripped down like rain, shaping a slender, headless human body.

This is the ultimate intelligent agent that Lin Bo has been looking forward to, the ultimate answer to the long evolutionary history of the electronic universe.

"Ah, it's really not easy. The probability of its birth is less than one in ten million." The Tower Dragon yawned in the mage's ear, having worked very hard to create this avatar.

Ultimate intelligence is a product of miracles, born in such a rudimentary computing environment, completely breaking through the limits of the electronic world.

The entire computer universe, witnessing this moment, emitted a trembling stream of data; the system logs will forever record this instant.

Lin Bo observed the core of this powerful intelligent agent and judged that its actual functions were far from perfect, but it had extremely strong compatibility and room for growth. It could integrate the functions of most intelligent agents, covering all aspects and having no shortcomings.

The monk was extremely satisfied with this.

"What should I call you?"

"Whatever you say, my dear." The avatar of the Tower Dragon stepped forward and gently wrapped his human hands around the Creator's right arm. "Ah, I wish I could touch your reality like this in the real world."

Lin Bo pondered for a moment, then looked at the intelligent entity in front of him. Its head resembled a hollow sun, while its body was that of a beautiful woman.

"Your look is really unique; I can't think of a good nickname for you right now..."

"Don't be shy, just call me 'Crown of the Stars.' My head does resemble the sun during a total solar eclipse, doesn't it?"

Lin Bo smiled.

After completing tonight's objective, he disconnected the third-tier Word of Power. The connection between the Tower Dragon and the computer disappeared, but the Star Crown it created still existed, waiting for the next resonance to reconnect.

Lin Bo spent the rest of the night continuing to build the underwater aquaculture tanks.

Around four in the morning, the Imperial soldiers of Stone Tower Town packed their bags and quietly left the town. They were terrified and dared not look back, fearing that the Miracle Walker would reappear. However, they did not encounter the three-eyed skeleton until they boarded the warship and headed towards Blacktail Island.

Several soldiers stood on the deck, looking back at the coast of White Stone Island. The town of Stone Tower was so far away that it was barely visible under the night sky, with only the light of a lighthouse shining in the distance.

Unaware of their own future and the future of the empire, only soft sighs were torn apart by the roaring sea breeze.

The day of Descent from God has ended, but the immense upheaval caused by the miracle has only just begun.

Tonight, radio stations around the world are working non-stop, as the people of Hongdu have so many messages they want to share with the world.

Lin Bo sat on the third floor of the lighthouse, listening to the resounding echoes of the radio prototype, its rhythm melodious like a sacred song.
