125: Chapter 108: Historical Secret Realm 125: Chapter 108: Historical Secret Realm “Alright, see you tomorrow at the entrance to the Secret Realm.” After hanging up the phone, Lu Ping’an relaxed a bit. This “Bonsai Designer” senior was easygoing, which was a relief to him. Last night, after getting the information on two combat-oriented Gardeners, Lu Ping’an was quite tempted and then fell into the dilemma of choosing. “I want both. Can I learn both at the same time?” “Well, you could. Two 2-tier skills of the same category won’t conflict, and they could help you open the door to the third-tier faster. From the information, these two branches can complement each other, but do you have the time? Your other schedules should be already full.” “…Tsk, I wish I could try them out first…” Lu Ping’an’s words were so extravagant that they were beyond evaluation, but he had the ability to achieve it. “The more I understand Gardener, a profession that accumulates knowledge, the more I realize that there are limits to human beings, so I….” “Are you giving up on being human?” “Yes, it’s time to be a leek harvester.” In a way, this indeed meant “giving up on being human.” All Lu Ping’an needed to enjoy such luxurious “trial use” was the right target. And as he further understood the Gardener profession, he became more and more clear that the core of knowledge-accumulating professions was “knowledge,” requiring endless time and energy to polish and accumulate. He didn’t have the time for the traditional Gardener path, and he had to “spend money” to raise his level and obtain more Life-points pathways quickly. As for the core of low-level Gardeners, “cultivating Magic Plants,” he had to count on the initial investment of Life-points. “Even without considering compatibility, just based on the current conditions, the non-traditional Gardener route is more suitable for me.” After getting a broad view of the Gardener system, Lu Ping’an knew that “Magic Plants” were the fundamental basis, and low-level Gardeners lingered on cultivating Magic Plants. Using Magic Plants for fighting? That was a privilege of high-level Gardeners. Only when they had Magic Plants could they consider using them in actual combat. Or like him, a minority “unruly” from the start. “It’s a pity that I can’t find a Floriculture master in a short time. Being able to find a nice, free Bonsai Master senior is already lucky.” With Miss Lululu’s help, Lu Ping’an found a senior Bonsai Master who was in his third year of college, and he was willing to provide guidance and exchange ideas with him. But as a senior in his fourth year and about to start working, he also had his own life. So, there was the previous scene: they agreed to meet in a Secret Realm where the senior brother was undergoing a trial. “Since you’re interested in this Advancement, you must be a practical combatant as well, right? Come with me to the Secret Realm and run a lap, and you’ll understand.” The senior was quite straightforward and didn’t even ask for payment. Naturally, Lu Ping’an agreed. However, since they were entering the Secret Realm, he needed to be well-prepared. “AD1987.5.2, An State, West Entrance County, a Historical Secret Realm, huh…” There were many types of Secret Realms. The “Historical” and “Story” types were undoubtedly quite special, as they often replayed a certain history or story repeatedly. However, the time and location of this Secret Realm were not good news. “…An unexplained disaster resulted in 210,000 deaths, while the total population of the county was only 250,000…” Online, only a brief introduction of the event could be found, describing it as a flood caused by a river breach. But by using the Bureau of Anomaly Management’s internal network, they could get more detailed information. “…An underwater Otherworldly exit suddenly opened, and a large number of amphibians, the Aquatic Clan, and creatures of the Water system emerged from it. Along with the sudden flood, they devoured the county town, causing more than 90% of the residents to die on the spot. There were many casualties……” Reality was often crueler than stories; many incidents had no possibility of being resolved from the very beginning. “…..After the incident, the flood receded, and West Entrance County was directly abolished. The survivors moved elsewhere, but the excessive number of ‘lost souls’ caused secondary pollution. The ‘Redemption Hand’ church took action and concentrated them in a Historical Secret Realm to memorialize the deceased and eliminate the pollution. This Secret Realm repeats itself once a month…” No wonder the senior brother already in West Entrance County had arranged to meet directly at the entrance of the Secret Realm. He probably didn’t want to miss the once-a-month opportunity. The entrance to the Secret Realm was in West Entrance County of An State, in the current ruins area, which didn’t seem to be far. “A county in the neighboring province? If we buy train tickets now, we can get there by tonight. Get some rest early and get ready at around 9 or 10 in the morning tomorrow, we’ll be in peak condition.” After calculating the time, Lu Ping’an started arranging his itinerary. The first thing to do was to report his itinerary to his guardian. Lu Ping’an estimated that if everything went well, it wouldn’t take more than one or two days for a round trip, so there should be no issues. After making the call, the other side was quite happy. “Her name is Lu Lulu, not Lululu. Don’t get girl’s names mixed up, it’s very direct…fine, the pronunciation doesn’t come across clearly over the phone, so we’ll discuss in detail later. With a logistics Magic Alchemist like her joining, we can even save on recruiting a professional healer. Now we have Xue En, Hua Xueyi, Lululu…Lu Lulu, and a young man they brought along. I’ll find two more people, and it should be enough. You did a great job…” Xia Qin didn’t expect that Lu Ping’an saying “I’ll have a talk, but don’t have high hopes” would have such a good outcome. Not to mention the originally impossible-to-acquire title of Masters, they had even taken the entire opposing organization and even the logistics Gardener/Alchemist who wasn’t planning on an internship initially actively applied. Xue En even reported through a phone call, joined the company ahead of schedule for the internship, hadn’t discussed his salary, and even brought his weapons and rations… This kind of employee was truly touching! However, the sudden power outage in the office was a bit eerie, and it was annoying that the report couldn’t be removed from the printer. Xue En went on a mission with Xia Qin during the day. His strength and keen battlefield instincts made the combat-oriented Xia Qin very satisfied. However, for some reason, there was an accident on the way back, the police car had to be repaired, and Xia Qin was covered in oil and blood. Just after taking a shower, Xia Qin had no idea what the future held for her…cough cough, but at least she was in a good mood for now. Since Lu Ping’an had a reasonable reason, they approved his leave right away, and said that he could submit the “application form” afterwards. The second thing that Lu Ping’an did was make preparations for the trip. Considering the special nature of the Secret Realm, he needed to make up for some knowledge. Luckily, there were two abilities that were almost ready for a breakthrough and seemed to have a high chance of being useful. “By the way, sister Xia Qin, I’ll drop by before leaving. Is Lei Huoren there? I’ll give him a BUFF.” Taking into account the special nature of the Secret Realm, their combat power might not be as important as mobility. Although Runners were lacking in many aspects, their practical abilities were very enticing, especially in special environments. The two abilities that Lu Ping’an valued were not far apart, and a final push would most likely be enough. “We have three slots, Hua senior sister has already used one. Although she has a Runner profession, she doesn’t seem to practice much…Ah, I’ll call her later and ask her to practice more. Lei Huoren gets one, as he never disappoints me with his experience Dividends. But for the last one, I don’t really want to give it to Meow, she’s on an extended vacation, and urging her is basically useless, she’s definitely fooling around…” However, not long after making the call, he knew there was little choice. Otherwise, Meow would likely scratch him. “…Is this Lu Ping’an? It’s Lei Huoren. You can take my sister with you when you come later; she’s affecting my work too much. Besides, it’s fine to take her out for two days.” Upon hearing that Lu Ping’an was looking for him, Lei Huoren immediately called back, asking to send Meow away with a particularly disgusted tone. It was evident that he was truly Meow’s older brother.
