"Hey, hey, hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey! "
The little one strolled along the streets, humming a tune and doing a simple tap dance.
He walked to a rubbish bin and knocked on the tal outer wall of the bin. When the bin made rhythmic "dong dong dong dong dong" sounds, the little one sang loudly,
"Yo, your childish dodging makes uncomfortable."
"Don't try any tricks, be it Druids or Transfiguration."
"I'm not stupid when it cos to playing hide and seek."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
The bin shook.
Two rats jumped out and transford into a man with a deer antler hat and a man with a magic wand.
"Eliminated!" The little one said in disdain.
He danced as he walked along the long street.
Liu Ping put his hands in his pockets and stood far away in the square. "Looks like I've won this round."
"No." The Mind Reading Ghost rumbled. "I have thousands of subordinates. It has to find all of them to win. Moreover, it will be its turn to hide later. My subordinates will definitely find it."
"You're thinking too much." Liu Ping shook his head. "Excuse , see you later."
He flashed and disappeared into the void.
On the other side.
Underground.
Liu Ping walked out of the washroom and sat down in the main hall.
Lehman said with a serious expression, "A powerful Spirit Reader Ghost has appeared."
"Oh?" Liu Ping looked at the holographic image.
One by one, people with blank faces appeared from the ruins.
"These people were eaten by the Spirit Reader Ghost. Now that they have appeared, it ans that the Spirit Reader Ghost has appeared on the surface." Lehman said anxiously.
"It's fine as long as they don't co down. Why are you worried?" Liu Ping asked.
These people did not appear to attack the underground city.
They were found by the Pixie.
"Of course I'm worried!"
Lehman stood up and paced back and forth in the main hall.
"Even if their entire bodies are transford into prosthetics, there's still a chance that they will be eaten by the Spirit Reader Ghost ..."
He said anxiously.
"It's already impressive to be able to do this. What else do you want to do?" Liu Ping asked curiously.
Lehman stopped and said, "The brain."
"What do you an?" Liu Ping didn't understand.
"The brain is the central organ that we humans use to store and process everything. If I replace my brain with a quantum processor, I'll be the sa as a machine. The Spirit Reader Ghosts won't eat ," Lehman said.
Liu Ping held his breath and thought for a while. He nodded and said, "Theoretically, yes. But is that still you?"
"As long as the soul doesn't change, what does it matter what the body becos?" Lehman asked.
"Of course it's related. As a human, many desires and motivations co from the body's genes. If you abandon your genes, you will no longer be human. You will abandon your human desires." Liu Ping said.
"I think it's worth it if I don't want to be eaten by the Spirit Reader Ghost." Lehman said.
"It's very difficult. I'm afraid we can't do it with our current technology." Liu Ping said.
Lehman sat down dejectedly and sighed, "The Book of the Sea requires 300 tons of gold for a detailed technical solution."
"Without human desires, are you still human?" Liu Ping asked.
"Who knows? But the most important thing is to survive. In a sense, this is eternal life, isn't it? "Lehman said.
"If we can keep changing the parts, the body will not be destroyed. It is indeed eternal life." Liu Ping admitted.
After that, he fell into silence.
He had awakened the Law of Water and ford the Book of the Sea, allowing humans to gain knowledge quickly.
The Law of the Four Saint Pillars flourished because of this.
However.
Now, humans were about to abandon everything that made them human.
"I think we're safe." Liu Ping said slowly. He picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip.
"I can only hope so."
Lehman raised his hand and looked at his nimble and cold fingers. He still felt indignant.
Liu Ping looked at the studio and saw a line of words flashing on the wall:
[Ti remaining until the completion of the human body construction: 2 hours and 25 minutes]
There was still so ti.
Lehman's words gave him so ideas.
Do you want to make sothing that's technology-oriented?
If he still had no one to use when fighting with the other Reading Ghosts in the future, it would be awkward.
As a Reading Ghost, he did not even have a subordinate.
It was equivalent to exposing his identity.
"Mr. Lehman, I need to borrow your weapon design studio." Liu Ping said.
Lehman imdiately put on a friendly smile and nodded, "No problem, but so of the materials are very rare. If you want to use them ..."
"Don't worry, I'll pay according to the price." Liu Ping said.
"Then there's no problem. The fifth exclusive weapon design studio has been opened. You can start using it now."
"Okay."
Liu Ping walked towards an open chanical door.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his mind, "Design so weapons for us."
It was the voice of a baby girl.
"What kind of weapons do you want?" Liu Ping asked.
"We can't use Occult powers in this world, so we'll lower our powers and use side powers to fight ... You need to design three weapons," the baby girl said.
Liu Ping listened carefully and nodded after a while, "No problem. By the ti your body is finished, I will be done."
The chanical door closed behind him.
...
Ti passed slowly.
At a certain mont.
Liu Ping was operating a few chanical arms and quickly designing a weapon.
Lines of burning words suddenly popped out:
[The Pixie has found everyone]
[You're temporarily leading 1: 0]
[Next, it's the sprites' turn to hide]
[Due to the difference in numbers, you can propose a reasonable additional condition for this battle]
Reasonable additional condition?
What would be considered "reasonable"?
Liu Ping thought for a while and said, "Then give us a ti limit. We can't keep searching indefinitely. There has to be a ti limit for both parties."
Then, lines of burning words appeared in his mind:
[Your suggestion has been accepted]
[The ti limit for this hide-and-seek is: one and a half hours]
[Begin!]
Liu Ping glanced through and felt a little uneasy.
After all, the other party had thousands of people while he only had one sprite.
He didn't know how good the sprites were at hide-and-seek.
He hadn't experienced it before.
He was really unsure.
Fortunately, he had already won one round and was temporarily safe.
Liu Ping put aside his thoughts and operated the chanical arms again to design weapons for Shui Shu, Hua Qingkong, and her spirit.
On the ground.
Nian Gui looked at the constantly changing black runes in the air and grinned.
"One and a half hours?"
"There's no need for that, I'll be able to find that Pixie right away."
He looked down at the thousands of Professionists below and roared:
"Unleash your fury, let see how long it will take for you to completely destroy this city!"
The Professionists paused for a mont, then began to move.
A summoner raised his staff.
A teor suddenly appeared in the sky.
Boom
The teor quickly fell and crashed into a skyscraper, then quickly pierced through it and created a crater on the ground.
From this mont onwards, the entire city was completely destroyed.
One and a half hours passed.
Spirit Reader roared in disbelief: "That's impossible! The ground has already been leveled, there's no place to hide!"
A voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "I've been hiding in your hair all this ti"
Spirit Reader quickly turned around, only to see a human thumb-sized figure silently floating up, making a funny face at him.
"Alright, you've already lost two rounds, this battle without any skill should be over" the small figure said.
As soon as he said that.
The black rune floating in the air abruptly let out a blinding light.
Spirit Reader's expression changed and shouted: "NO!"
He spat out a broken piece of scale from his mouth and shouted: "With this True Armor, the battle will continue until one side wins three rounds!"
The scales imdiately disintegrated into fine black powder that flew through the air and soaked into the black rune.
Liu Ping silently appeared and looked at the scale with a serious expression.
That was the scale that restrained the Umbrella Wielder's armor. He didn't know what Spirit Reader did to be able to peel off a scale from the armor.
"You've already lost two rounds, and you're not going to admit it?" Liu Ping asked.
Spirit Reader scoffed and punched the ground.
The ground trembled and cracked open, revealing the silhouettes of several buildings below.
The underground city!
Spirit Reader's tone carried a strong killing intent:
"I've already noticed from the very beginning that there's a sumptuous feast of souls here.
"I won't back down."
"The third battle will be a battle of life and death between the living beings that we've gathered. Their victory or defeat will represent our victory or defeat."
Spirit Reader pointed his pitch-black finger at the pixie floating in the air.
"Hide-and-seek?"
Spirit Reader laughed sarcastically and raised his voice: "Kill that bastard!"
On the ground, several thousand Professionists all aid at the pixie floating in the air.
At this point, the pixie had nowhere to hide. Knowing that it couldn't escape, it cried out:
"Liu Ping, save ."
Liu Ping waved his hand.
The spells and cold weapons that were attacking the pixie all disappeared.
Spirit Reader imdiately spoke:
"Neither you nor I can interfere with a battle between mortals, or do you want to admit defeat?"
Liu Ping sighed.
The pixie had already won two rounds for him, it wasn't good at direct combat, so how could he send it to its death?
If it admitted defeat, then so be it. All he had to do was think of a way to win the next few rounds.
He spoke: "That's right, I think this round ..."
Suddenly.
A female voice sounded from not far behind him.
"I should be the one to fight."
Liu Ping abruptly turned around, only to see a beautiful woman standing not too far away, staring coldly at the gigantic Spirit Reader as well as the several thousand Professionists.
"You're done?" Liu Ping was overjoyed.
"Yes, I'm very satisfied with this body, leave the rest of the battle to ."
The beautiful woman's tone was cold.
Liu Ping took out a small screen from behind his back and checked the data on it.
The beautiful woman spoke impatiently: "No need to check, I've already tried all three weapons, dealing with these small fries won't be a problem at all. Just wait for to slaughter them all."
"Wait a minute, this is the first ti you've activated this body, I have to check it carefully."
Liu Ping checked all the data, then pointed the screen at the beautiful woman.
"What are you doing?" the beautiful woman asked.
Liu Ping answered: "The machine is in good condition, I'm checking your condition now."
Shui Shu, Hua Qingkong, and her spirit were fused into a female infant's body, while the female infant was hidden inside this perfect artificial body, no amount of caution would be too much.
"No need."
The beautiful woman casually said. Then she pulled out a sharp tal blade and walked towards the Professionists a few thousand ters away.
Liu Ping was still worried, so he checked the data on the screen and continued to check.
Lines of text appeared on the screen:
[Nerve connection normal.]
[Heartbeat and blood oxygen level normal.]
[Brainwave sensing normal.]
[...]
[Diaper changed.]
[Milk in the afternoon.]
[Examination complete.]
Liu Ping sighed in relief and muttered: "Seems like there's no problem."
The pixie stood on his shoulder and cheered loudly: "Big sis, crush them!!!"
