195: Chapter 177: Life Affinity 195: Chapter 177: Life Affinity “I don’t want to become a fugitive right after starting school for a peaceful and happy life…” Lu Ping’an’s thoughts were simple and straightforward, wanting to get rid of this calamity, he needs to eliminate all the “pursuing-hunters” and “informed-persons”. Then, “Disappear and return”, resume normal life and social order. However, getting rid of those fifth-sixth-tier big shots? It’s unrealistic to brute force, but if he’s still just a first-tier noob, he doesn’t even have a chance at approaching. From the beginning, it’s a desperate situation. If ascending to godhood has setbacks, perhaps, inheriting the legacy of a deity also has setbacks at the desperate level. “…But this, is not checkmate. The greed and selfishness of the pursuing hunters are my greatest opportunity.” Throwing out three names, Lu Ping’an looked forward to the results, looking forward to their death news… But before that, he would put an end to the situation. “Life Bank, ‘settle’ my investment yesterday, it should be about time…” The next moment, a large amount of memories and experiences flooded into his mind, but this time, Lu Ping’an remained calm. Compared to the convulsive feedback before, he was already accustomed. [Gained a small amount of grafting experience, gained a small amount of planting experience, gained a small amount of climbing experience…] After a series of screen updates, he finally got what he wanted. [Planting (Taboo) LV UP! Now LV7, 15/100] [Congratulations to the host for breakthrough, a small increase in spirit.] At this moment, his exhausted spirit lifted, Lu Ping’an felt like he had just soaked in a hot bath. [Planting (Taboo) reaches the higher stages, awakens common passive career ability, Life Affinity.] [Upper Black Iron Abnormal Ability, Life Affinity (Passive Permanent): Increase your affinity for life-force, increase your affinity for polluted life, increase ‘Life Perception’ and other life…] As before, the knowledge series first-tier core skill breakthrough gave him a common ability, but this time, Lu Ping’an was just delighted. “So, Life Affinity is here…” To control elemental power, one must first perceive the elements, understand the elements, then develop a good relationship with the elements (affinity) before using and controlling them. Elemental system capabilities, such as elemental perception and affinity, can be regarded as core abilities, but the Life system… is actually the same. Lu Ping’an’s life-points, the degenerated life source force and life curse-power are essentially a kind of life system elemental power, which naturally requires abilities to perceive, be close, and control. The previous Gardener series abilities had given “Life Perception” and “Life Resonance”, but there was still no further progress in Life Affinity. Lu Ping’an thought it would only come at the 2-tier, or as a core ability of a profession, but now he already mastered it at the end of the first-tier, and it came as an additional bonus of the professional skill, which was a pleasant surprise. There is no doubt that this is a core ability, be it Beast Tamers, Gardeners, Gourmands, Cooks, Healers, as long as it is a Life system profession, they all need to practice the core abilities of this “life energy” system. By the way, perception, affinity, control, etc., are actually directions of development and exercise. There is no inherent hierarchy, only the ladder of constant ascent. For most Life professions, all paths must not be abandoned and must be cultivated one by one with great effort. But Life Affinity is the foundation of everything… you have to make elemental powers like you and obey your arrangement first, only then, everything else follows. “Planting is the core professional skill of a Gardener, which increases the Gardener’s compatibility, understanding, and affinity for the Life force through continuous cultivation of Magic Plants, right?” Lu Ping’an nodded in satisfaction, as most of his abnormal abilities and professional skills benefit from this enhancement, making the improvement comprehensive. However, everything has its good and bad sides, the “Grafting” that fell behind by one step still lags by one step. [Professional Skill: Grafting (Pollution), lv6, 67/100.] This was already the result of Lu Ping’an burning a lot of life-points and catching up frantically. Looking at this progress, it would take at least another three days… “The time has come, today I must break through the 2-tier…” What else could he say? Just keep burning those points. After ensuring that everything around him was safe, Lu Ping’an decided to return to a certain area. Time and time again, he looked at the magic plants that “died naturally” and his heart bled. He didn’t regret the investment of points, he just regretted that these inputs didn’t achieve the best effect. Most of the “random combination” magic plants died automatically within a short time. “Cultivating new life” wasn’t something that could be done casually. A huge amount of points were wasted, as expected. Taking a deep breath, Lu Ping’an went out for a stroll, trying to find some seeds he didn’t have in the black market… only to be shocked by the sky-high prices. His student-level wallet was only good for browsing the forestry companies outside. It was still too early for him to find rare and taboo items in the black market. In the afternoon, when he went to exchange information with a cat, he received an unexpected surprise. “Here, this is a branch we found in the ruins, meow.” Ruins branch? Oh, the remains of the high-level Gardener Tree Shepherd. Didn’t they clean up the battlefield? “… Sister Xia Qin gave it to me, meow.” Lu Ping’an understood now, the Special Service Team cleaned the battlefield. [Fragment of Elven Lightwood (Silver Lower)]. For this kind of waste and remains, the system panel provided a rather simple prompt, but Lu Ping’an checked the plant codex and found its existence. “Although it’s a fourth-tier magic plant, it’s just a tree that grows fast, has strong vitality, and absorbs pollution. It doesn’t have much use… It seems like it could be used, let’s give it a try.” This Otherworldly lightwood was not rare among high-level Gardeners. It was a good “fast-growing meat shield” with many advantages like easy cultivation and high cost performance, but it also had the weakness of being very fragile. Meow also brought a batch of magic potions and a battered handgun. Receiving this gift was undoubtedly delightful, but what was more important was the favors. Lu Ping’an took the freshly obtained internal information of the Special Service Team, put it in his pocket, turned around and left directly. He was very short on time. Returning to the safe area, he began his “grafting” experiment once again. The fourth-tier magic plant of Silver Lower level didn’t need to be tested. The investment was definitely useless. But this lightwood was a good example of a magic plant that could be easily cultivated and brought to life. It was a temporary loser favored by Gardeners. The branch was inserted into the fertile soil of the Hidden World Courtyard and quickly sprang to life with the addition of fertilizers and water. This was at least a seventh-tier Land of Life, and it quickly became fully active. The pale green tree grew at a high speed, occupying a large living space while having no use other than “growing fast”. Lu Ping’an thought… and finally decided to process it, burn it to ashes, mix it into the fertilizer bag, and turn it into a compound fertilizer. “He must have a ‘Growth Module’. Although I can’t purify it, this crude method, combined with my Land of Life, might just work.” This makeshift approach alone showed that Lu Ping’an had been backed into a corner. But surprisingly, whether it was the fertilizer that was really fertile, the crude method really effective, or that he finally encountered success after a series of failures, a few of Lu Ping’an’s subsequent grafting experiments ended up successful. Finally, as evening came, Lu Ping’an took the last step. [Gained a small amount of grafting experience.] [Grafting (pollution) LV UP! Current LV7, 1/100] [Congratulations to the host for breaking through, spirit slightly increased.] Now that all the conditions for 2-tier were met, Lu Ping’an began his final transformation.
