Star-Moon World, Second Continent, Faux Sleep Forest.
The guardian of the Cross-border Teleportation Array, Lord Pine God, was still snoozing away.
All of a sudden, its bubble of snot burst, and it opened its round eyes wide.
"This aura..."
"Is that the Divine Deer?"
Shocked, it got up, and right on ti, Lu Ran and the Divine Deer stepped into the underground altar from the forest.
"It really is!"
"Wuuu, Sister Loo~~~"
Seeing the approaching white Divine Deer, Lord Pine God wiped its eyes with its small hand, imdiately squeezing out a few tears, and teleported mid-air, wanting to hug the Divine Deer.
However, the Divine Deer seed reluctant to let it make contact and a light wall appeared in front of it, sending Lord Pine God flying.
Smack.
"Wuuu, how heartless."
Lord Pine God’s clone hit the wall.
"Hey, Lord Pine God," Lu Ran lifted his hand, "Lord Divine Deer wants to co back to Blue Star with . Can the Teleportation Array handle it?"
"Yes!"
"That’s great," Lord Pine God stood up again, "Curse it, if only my real body wasn’t tied down..."
It showed a look of regret.
"Speaking of which, what is Lord Pine God’s real body suppressing?" Lu Ran asked curiously.
"The Space Devil God•Padilla," said the Divine Deer.
"Space Devil God•Padilla... What about it?" Lu Ran hadn’t heard of this na before, but if it was sealed by the Divine Dragon Affiliation like the Evil God, it must be quite powerful, right?
"In human terms, it’s a real estate tyrant. A world can only accommodate a limited number of independent Space Secret Realms. Once this limit is exceeded, the overall primary space becos increasingly unstable. The Space Devil God•Padilla loves to create independent Secret Realms and then sell or reward them to its subordinates, leading to frequent disturbances in the main space."
"At its peak, the number of realms it created surpassed 100,000. Even the subordinates of its subordinates had the opportunity to ’struggle’ and purchase a realm residence from it... After repeated unsuccessful persuasions by Lord Pine God, battle was inevitable."
"However, because of the Space Devil God’s profound knowledge in space, constant suppression is required to ensure it cannot escape. For Lord Pine God to be freed, it’s probably going to have to wait until the Dragon of Space returns," explained the Divine Deer.
"Damn it, such a damn fool..." Lord Pine God cursed.
In its opinion, the Space Devil God was sick, why create so many houses?
Lu Ran: "..."
The circle of legends in the Star-Moon World seems pretty chaotic as well.
"Let’s not talk about that now~" Lord Pine God said, "Sister Loo, and her envoy, I wish you a safe journey."
"..."
......
Blue Star.
Lu Ran’s departure lasted nearly a month – neither long nor short – just enough for a Breakthrough Secret Realm.
When Lu Ran and the Divine Deer arrived at Blue Star’s Cross-border Teleportation Altar, they found a heterochromatic lion-cat licking its paws and watching them.
It was a clone of Manager Ying left behind on Blue Star to guard the Teleportation Array...
"You, continue guarding."
Manager Ying’s main body erged from Lu Ran’s Relic Space, looked at the stony-faced lion-cat clone, and ordered.
"ow-ow!!!" The lion-cat clone indifferently turned and walked away.
Returning to Blue Star, Lu Ran also instantly felt refreshed; after all, this was ho.
"Lord Divine Deer, as I recall, didn’t you say you wanted to co back and delve into Blue Star’s secrets anew?" Lu Ran said, "I’ve not yet prepared the third evolution trait for the Six Paths Flower. Why not attend to your business first, and give a few days? As soon as we’ve found it, we’ll summon you imdiately."
"Agreed." The Divine Deer nodded indifferently.
Without awaiting further speech from Lu Ran, it stepped across space and departed the area.
[I await your news.]
As the Divine Deer left, Lu Ran also said to Manager Ying, "Old rules, first tell what significant events happened on Blue Star this past month."
"Got it~" Manager Ying pulled out a mobile, getting in touch with the other clones left on Blue Star.
A mont later.
"No major events; just the usual sudden annihilation of a few small nations by ancient Evil Beasts, with the International League failing to rescue in ti."
"In short, the strength of Evil Beast forces is steadily growing, gradually posing a challenge to humanity."
"These issues aren’t major, rely simple shifts in the world’s structure; they don’t impact you."
"Let’s talk about sothing related to you. Gu Qingyi successfully broke through to Level Six, becoming another Level Six Beast Trainer in Xia Country. She has already erged from the Breakthrough Secret Realm."
"When Six Paths Flower evolves, perhaps you can help her deal with the Black Dragon."
Lu Ran nodded, indeed.
"Then there’s Fang Lan too, who cleared the Level Three Breakthrough Secret Realm and has beco a Level Four Beast Trainer like you. With the help of the Thousand Poison Mother Tree, it’s exceedingly easy for her to fight above her Level in the Peak Arena, and the na ’Saintess of the Five Poison Sect’ is gaining fa internationally."
"As for your Water Dragon Team, they are quite weak. Even though many teams have conquered level one Legendary Secret Realms, none has managed to conquer a level two. They are all stuck at level two... There’s nothing that can be done... After all, the BOSSes are High-Ranked Kings and Lower Overlords, which already represents a qualitative difference."
"Also, during this ti, your Master Jiang Dou has entered the level one Breakthrough Secret Realm, but he hasn’t co out yet."
"Oh, there’s also Sumr, who successfully nurtured a spirit for the gun you gave her in the Necromancer Secret Realm of Reaper Island. It looks like her talent isn’t bad, with the addition of the gun spirit, her combat power seems to have greatly increased."
"Your bet with the Divine Eagle Federation’s Chairman seems to have a good chance of winning."
"Besides that... your General Xuan Turtle has been quite lazy lately, slacking off. After reaching the expansion bottleneck, it has been sitting on its territory, living a comfortable retirent. Your expansion of power in the deep sea does not look optimistic."
"I understand," Lu Ran nodded, not blaming the Xuan Turtle since its fundantal strength was too weak after all.
"Then let give the Senior Chairman a call first; let’s head out."
After saying that, Lu Ran head out towards the exit of the altar on his own.
anwhile, in Xia Country, on a famous mountain.
An old man, bare-chested and muscular, was rapidly doing push-ups with just one finger. He had lost count of how many he had done, with the ground beneath him completely drenched in sweat.
"Ooh, woohoo!" The old man was so engrossed in his exercise that he didn’t notice a monkey-shaped Pet Beast bringing over a mobile phone.
"Seriously, it’s so rare for to sneak away for a two-day break, and there are still people looking for ."
The Senior Chairman sprang up effortlessly, taking the mobile phone handed over by the Pet Beast with resignation.
However, when he saw the caller ID, his work-weary expression was imdiately replaced by surprise.
"Lu Ran?"
"You’re back."
He cheerfully answered the call, and Lu Ran’s voice ca through, sounding happy.
"Chairman, your expectations are t, Manager Ying and I have returned," Lu Ran said. "I have successfully had a Beast Training Space opened up by the Divine Deer, although it might take so ti to develop a Space technique suitable for the people of Blue Star..." He had the Body Control talent from Super Beast Mimicry, which allowed him to study the Beast Training Space, so given ti, there was indeed hope that he could develop a technique for the Beast Training Space.
Besides, if there were parts he didn’t understand, he still had the opportunity to ask the Divine Deer for advice on experiences related to opening up spaces.
"Additionally, the chanical Life that Xia Country needs, I’ve already brought back."
"Great, great, great." The Senior Chairman said ’great’ three tis, laughing heartily on the phone: "You’ve both worked hard. Such a great contribution, I don’t even know what reward would be fitting."
"Lad, what do you want?"
"This." Lu Ran said: "I don’t need anything special... hold on... how about this, I had already asked Principal Shi Zhen to help collect Enhancent Cards, so how about Xia Country contributes to the search as well?"
"World’s Rare level comprehension resources are quite useful. I feel I may need to use a lot of them when researching cultivation thods."
Enhancent Cards are strategic resources, whether for helping Xia Country research cultivation thods or for his own research on Exclusive Beast Training Skills, Lu Ran felt that he would consu a great deal.
"No problem," the Senior Chairman agreed without hesitation, adding, "What else? This is obligatory."
"That’s it," Lu Ran said. "I don’t need anything else for now, I’ll let you know if I do."
"That being said, who should contract the research-type chanical Life I brought back?"
"A Monarch-race chanical Life is very valuable; it must be given to the most suitable person."
"Does Xia Country have a talented researcher in the field of Machinery?"
The Senior Chairman pondered, "The level of researchers in this area in Xia Country is rather low, so the chanical Life definitely cannot be contracted to them; it would be a waste."
"If Xia Country wants to develop its Machinery series, for the ti being, it can only be this chanical Life guiding us, not us guiding it."
"So, regarding the contractor, as long as you can ensure it ’won’t rebel’ and can provide it with ample ’Growth Level space,’ that will do."
"After all, the research capabilities of research-type chanical Life are positively correlated with their Growth Level, right?"
"Low-level researchers without the ability to level up definitely won’t do. Overall, the best choice right now is the Twelve Supports. Personally, I suggest that, since you brought this chanical Life back, you contracting it is the best choice. Although your level isn’t the highest, with your speed of leveling up, you should catch up with the first tier soon; this way, others won’t owe you favors either."
"Moreover, it’s unlikely that many of the Twelve Supports currently have a spare Contract Slot, but you’re different. You’ve just had a Beast Training Space opened up by the Divine Deer; Your Contract Slots must be overflowing, right? What do you think?"
"Why always ..." Lu Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, "I’m tired of carrying the weight."
"Haha, what does it matter? A research-type chanical Life can not only help Xia Country develop the Machinery series but also aid you in researching human secrets. It would certainly be faster for you to research the Beast Training Space technique with a research-type chanical assistant."
The Senior Chairman casually remarked, and Lu Ran paused in thought.
Is there such a benefit? He hadn’t considered this point.
If he had a research-type assistant to help him research Exclusive Beast Training techniques, wouldn’t he save a lot of effort? Even though he had Body Control skills, the various body trics are still not very intuitive. If he had a Machinery series assistant responsible for daily check-ups, producing training reports, maybe he would develop skills more intuitively...
No matter how much he enhanced, his computing power was definitely no match for chanical Life.
"That... makes sense," Lu Ran said. "Okay, then I’ll raise it myself."
"It’s a pity," he added.
"What’s a pity?" the Senior Chairman asked.
"The Absolute Comprehension Attribute is gone."
Lu Ran mused, feeling it was a pity that the Absolute Comprehension Attribute, which was only one of a kind, had already been fused with Mr. Husky.
It was clearly more suitable for a research-type robot. Otherwise, while the Artificial Human still hadn’t been activated, should he transplant Mr. Husky’s brain into it? Hm... it probably wouldn’t match anyway; better not ss around.
