Angel meticulously recorded the flaws Jon mentioned one by one, including those related to “user experience.” Although Angel felt some points were redundant, he recognized their relevance since Jon emphasized them.
Overall, setting aside the login device, the shortcomings were mainly in “user experience” and “limited functionality.”
Speaking of user experience, Angel understood the lack of functionality. Having experienced various features on the holographic tablet, he grasped what Jon meant.
The current Mother Tree Network only offered basic information exchange, rudimentary compared to Earth’s internet.
Improving these flaws required continuous research and development. Recognizing the limitations of individual effort, Angel knew more people needed to join the network’s development.
Like Earth’s internet, which evolved from local to boundless, wired to wireless, and simple storage to diverse software, progress wasn’t instant but gradual, involving time and manpower.
After Jon pointed out these flaws, Angel formulated a rough plan.
He envisioned Jon leading the Mother Tree Network’s development. The specifics would wait until finding suitable talents.
Angel shared his plan with Jon, who pondered and replied, “Yes, perfecting the Mother Tree Network alone is impossible. It’s not just about power but about collective wisdom, needing more people’s involvement.”
“Moreover, to maximize the network’s development, we need people with broad vision and mindset, unconfined by traditional thinking.”
Angel nodded and said, “I agree with this point. In some time, I will bring some transcendent individuals from reality into this. At that time, Mentor Jon can choose the useful talents among them.”
The vision of the transcendent is certainly broader than the current residents of Initial Heart City. Moreover, the essence of the Mother Tree Network is different from Earth’s network. Developing the Mother Tree Network will undoubtedly require transcendent powers. Therefore, the people involved in this project should ideally be transcendent as well.
“It’s certainly best that way, but…” Jon paused and then continued, “To perfect the Mother Tree Network, we’ll need quite a few talents. There shouldn’t be many transcendents outside, can you find enough people?”
“Don’t worry about that, I have my ways,” Angel confidently replied.
Jon didn’t ask Angel how he planned to do this, simply nodding in understanding. Then, with a gaze filled with curiosity, he looked at Angel and asked, “By the way, you just mentioned letting transcendents enter the Wilderness of Dreams. Does this mean that transcendent powers can now be used in the Wilderness of Dreams?”
Ever since Jon learned about the existence of the Wizarding World, he had been extremely curious about transcendent powers. Unfortunately, there had been no transcendent powers in the Wilderness of Dreams before. After the emergence of the Sinful Monsters, it wasn’t possible for Jon to risk merging with them. So, when Jon understood the deeper meaning in Angel’s words, he couldn’t help but ask.
Since Angel mentioned letting transcendents enter the Wilderness of Dreams, he obviously didn’t intend to hide anything and nodded, “If all goes well, it shouldn’t take long before the Wilderness of Dreams has its own energy system.”
Once Sanders stabilizes the energy system of the Wilderness of Dreams on the basis of magical power, using spells there will also become a reality. The ‘Infinite Alchemy’ that Angel is most looking forward to might also be realized.
Jon’s eyes brightened, eager to ask if he could also learn the ways of the wizards at that time. However, before he could speak, Angel guessed his thoughts and took the initiative to say, “Although the Wilderness of Dreams currently lacks an energy system, I can almost determine that the magical power system to be constructed will definitely be similar to the power in lucid dreams, seemingly normal, yet somewhat ethereal.”
“The power system of the Wilderness of Dreams can be used for research and experiments, but it’s probably not suitable for cultivation.”
Jon listened to Angel’s words, his eyes slightly dimmed.
After all, having crossed from a magicless world to a high-magic world, the inability to personally experience transcendent powers was somewhat regrettable for a scholar like Jon, who loved research.
“There’s no need to be disappointed. As I gain more control over the powers of the Wilderness of Dreams, perhaps I could enable Mentor Jon to have powers.”
Jon sighed, “But you said it yourself, the power of the Wilderness of Dreams is ultimately illusory, and even if one possesses power, it’s not of much use.”
Angel replied, “Maybe one day, the power of the Wilderness of Dreams could also affect reality?”
Jon was stunned, “The power within the Wilderness of Dreams can affect reality?”
Angel nodded, “In this universe, anything is possible.”
Angel’s words sounded comforting, but he indeed believed so in his heart. The existence of the Wilderness of Dreams was already indirectly affecting reality. Although tangible things couldn’t be taken out, experiences could be. For instance, Leon in Initial Heart City learned combat skills from Knight Sabel and boosted his combat experience in battles. These were experiences that could be brought into reality, even if indirectly, and this in itself was influencing reality.
Moreover, although the Dream Realm is illusory, some beings within it can affect reality, and creatures from the Dream Realm can even kill people in human dreams, directly bridging the gap between reality and illusion, manifesting power in the material world.
The Dream Realm, so ethereal, can influence the material world. Not to mention, the Wilderness of Dreams is not a pure Dream Realm. As more powers are controlled, perhaps there truly is a chance for the Wilderness of Dreams to spark with the material world.
Although these ideas are still far from Angel’s current situation, as long as he keeps moving forward, there will always be a chance to realize them.
“I’ve heard that above the legendary realm, there’s the realm of Miracle. In this layer, every wizard has created Miracles.” Although Angel’s understanding of Miracle Wizards is almost nil, in his mind, the phrase “creating miracles” itself represents the mighty power of turning all absurd and unrestrained concepts into reality.
As long as the stage of thought is boundless, there will come a day when miracles can be realized.
“Freud previously mentioned to me that there are no legends in the Southern Region, and now you’re already setting your sights on Miracle?” Jon gently tapped Angel’s head: “That’s quite an ambitious dream.”
It seemed like a reprimand, but after Jon said “That’s quite an ambitious dream,” one could see his eyebrows and the corners of his lips either curling up or forming an arc, not in mockery, but as a form of heartfelt joy.
People who sit in small spring-autumn pavilions and talk about dreams are indulging in wishful thinking. But those who walk on the journey and look towards the horizon, that’s called having a goal.
In Jon’s view, Angel is the latter.
Although he was pouring cold water, in his heart, he felt proud of the promising future and the grand Vision described by Angel.
