293: Chapter 273: The Road 293: Chapter 273: The Road Strength is the universal notification.
After demonstrating his combat power, not only did the newcors look at him differently, even old acquaintances like Xue En and Hua Xueyi couldn’t understand.
“This is too incredible.
He was a newcor a month and a half ago and just beca a Gardener.”
“His growth rate is too fast.
Does he have so secret?”
However, even though they had doubts in their hearts, no one would say it out loud.
In the real workplace, people won’t be easily shocked, but their inner balance would naturally tilt in favor of soone’s words if their combat power was proven, as is the case with Lu Ping’an’s words.
“Let’s set off.”
At this mont, no one had any objections.
The direction they were heading was the sa one that Lu Jun had explored earlier…
In these “small-scale” wild Exotic Realms, heading towards areas with higher pollution concentrations was generally the right choice.
However, during the journey, Lu Ping’an was reflecting.
“…Too slow, and there are too many restrictions.”
He wasn’t reflecting on the failure of the initial attack.
Rather, the experint in the courtyard made him more aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his own “Scenery.”
The conspicuous attribute restraint and Magic Plant nature problems were unfixable weaknesses not worth thinking about… As even thinking about them was useless.
But so things could only be revealed in actual combat.
“The required space is too much.”
The space equipnt that bound the “Scenery” had many limitations.
The “Palm Courtyard” was much freer in comparison, but both shared the sa restrictions – they could only place “items” in “empty coordinates.”
Overlap was strictly forbidden during this process.
Overlapping would result in failure and being unable to retrieve the items.
As for forcibly retrieving them with special ans and overlapping two spatial coordinates, resulting in a body attachnt-like state outside or a twisted space explosion, Lu Ping’an didn’t want to know…
he was originally curious, but Big Cat stopped him with various vivid (foolish and death-seeking) examples of his predecessors.
For other Magic Plants, the problem was manageable, but for a giant “Redemption,” normal streets in urban warfare wouldn’t be enough for it to fully unfold.
It needed open spaces like gymnasiums, playgrounds, or this kind of wilderness battlefield to reveal its true form.
And that was just the first prerequisite.
“Its attack power is too strong, so when you have teammates, even if you take the ti to put on affinity-marks, it’s still a safety hazard.”
It took about two minutes to unfold “Redemption,” followed by five or six minutes to put marks on his teammates, and then roughly the sa amount of ti to put hostility markers on enemies… Lu Ping’an finally understood the aning of “Positional Battle Mastery.”
This kind of unfolding was slow, even for a combat-oriented Court Gardener.
“If you don’t have teammates, forcefully unfolding it would be courting death.
If you do have teammates, you still have to worry about them.
It’s annoying.”
In fact, there was still so hidden danger that was not revealed here.
Since one of the prototypes of Bloodsucking Vine was the rare oddity “Demonized Dodder” that parasitized other plants, its cravings for Magic Plants far exceeded other life forms…
Frankly, if there were other Magic Plants in the scene, it would most likely kill its own allies first, and nothing could stop it.
Although it had the na “Bloodsucking Vine” with a taste for dark humor, it actually preferred the fluids of Magic Plants to the blood of animals.
“It’s not very effective against powerful individuals.”
In the final analysis, it was still the wave attack relying on a large number of 2-tier Magic Plants.
Even if they were gigantified to et the standard of single third-tier creatures, their individual strength was still lacking.
The fact that Xia Qin was lifted up without any injuries and even used her aura to deter so attackers once again confird its situation – suitable for group battles, but weak against powerful opponents.
“…We need to hurry up and create a second Scenery.”
Soul searching was not about tornting oneself.
Lu Ping’an wouldn’t try to make up for the “weak points”…
If natural weaknesses could be easily made up for, they wouldn’t exist today.
Rather than thinking about how to compensate for shortcomings and giving a crowd attacker a stronger single-target attack and more reliable ans of distinguishing targets, it was better to create another professional single-target strongman.
“…Wanting to eat peaches is impossible.”
But Da Mao imdiately poured cold water on it.
“Low-level Magic Plants are usually strong but lack intelligence, having poor perception and laughable attack accuracy.
If you want intelligence and individual strength, have you chosen the wrong type of creature?
At least among the low-level Magic Plants I know, it’s quite difficult.”
Though it seed like a mockery, it actually helped Lu Ping’an find a direction.
It’s not entirely impossible; it’s just a little difficult to concoct such a “life” out of the limited resources of low-level Magic Plants.
“…Don’t you have a better choice?” Da Mao’s words had a deeper aning.
Lu Ping’an touched the rough Cortex Book in his arms.
Perhaps it was ti for it to show its worth.
———-
As the acknowledged number one master in the Zion District, Captain Lu Jun’s speed and strength were very fast and his skills were quite comprehensive.
Now 45 years old, he was at the dual peak of physical and professional abilities, with two fourth-tier majors, and two third-tier auxiliary majors.
He was not a Runner, but he had the extre speed that even 2-tier Runners could hardly keep up with, which was the result of hard training and many battle-profession bonuses.
With brute force, speed, and excellent equipnt, the Magic Monsters that could pose a fatal threat to ordinary special agents couldn’t stop him.
“…Their production speed has increased.”
The further he walked, the more he furrowed his brow.
During his investigation, Lu Jun had seen how these Demons were created.
The six-limbed Ant Monsters were the inhabitants of this place.
They were gradually recalling the knowledge and mories in their veins, becoming more difficult to deal with.
They dug out the reddish-gray ground under their feet, danced on it with their strangely marked limbs, and then blessed a certain area, turning the stone monsters from sculptures into living beings.
Their village also had a so-called “water source”, which was the fluid needed for the cycle of life, but Lu Xin’s “Observing Rain” was not wrong, the “water source” here was not water at all.
That black, oil-like viscous liquid was the main food of Six-Limbed Weirdos, but when necessary, they could take out a part of it, grant it with runes and their own “fluid”, and turn them into living beings.
There was only one species here and the other two were just their tools and mobile food.
“This is bad.”
From Lu Jun’s experience, the situation was sowhat too bad.
It was not that the opponents were strong or difficult to deal with, but the production of “magical creatures” often ant that these six-footed creatures were a group of social creatures with inheritance and magical civilization.
Wisdom, talented abilities contained in the blood, this was inherently a necessary condition for becoming a strongman, but this was still not the problem that worried Lu Jun …
even though their prototype was a super magical monster, this short period was not enough for them to grow.
“Continuing down this path will be very dangerous.
None can be spared.”
He struck down without hesitation all the Six-Limbed Monsters that were encountered along the way.
Power (Pollution) itself is also a kind of imprint, a kind of mory.
Judging from the awakening speed of these creatures, they are likely to co from a unique civilization with their own supernatural system (magic).
So creatures are born with a certain knowledge inheritance.
The Six-Limbed Monsters they are facing now seem to have such ability.
Making tools, altering the environnt, building defenses, doesn’t seem like the intelligence of a native magical creature group born less than a month ago.
If they dig out more “tribal mories” from their bloodlines and use their talents to contact the world, then the situation will quickly worsen.
In a sense, the previous team had been deceived by the “magic monsters” outside.
They mistakenly believed that this was another group of instinctual magic monsters, and there wouldn’t be a big problem with a little delay.
More than 90% of wild Secret Realms were like this.
If they had initially shown high intelligence and actively used supernatural abilities, the threat level would be much higher, and the resources for clean-up would naturally be more significant.
“Absolutely cannot let them contact the native world!
Finish it right here, end it all.”
