Chapter 1386: Craftsman
This return was short but fulfilling. At least Lu himself did not expect that he would undergo a qualitative change during this period of time.
He thought that his chance would be on Mercury 42, but he didn't expect that he would meet his fate on his mother planet. He also knew about the complete demise of the Mother Goddess Cult. At least, the sight of Big Cat staring blankly on the rooftop all night that day was probably impossible to ignore.
But it was a little difficult for him to suppress this pleasure. Maybe it was a bit too much for the big cat, but Lu Ping'an couldn't like the Mother Goddess Church in any way.
"It's fine if they just devour something instead of sharing it, but the attitude of treating all the weak as food and a burden is really hard to like."
Of course, he wasn't stupid enough to show it in front of the few remnants of the Mother Goddess Church.
It is worth mentioning that when the news spread, the person most affected was Fang Wen. She was obviously weaker and a little dazed as she had suffered a severe mental trauma.
In the past, she pursued digital life and eventually built her own "Internet empire", which actually fits the idea of "all things return to one". In a practical sense, she has always been a devout believer of big cats.
The result was that the "Mother Goddess Royal Family" acted as if nothing had happened, seemingly completely unaffected
.
"They are all different possibilities of me. How can they walk the same exact path? Even if I understand the Mother Goddess, I will use her as a tool."
Fei'er is not like the Mother Goddess in every aspect, and Eve's "Citrine Empire" is somewhat similar, but it is more of an extension of her original body. All her "citizens" are herself, which is different from the "hybrid life" of the Mother Goddess in its origin.
“It is all too true that the church’s biggest beneficiaries and ruling class are not religious.”
Mr. Lu is quite open-minded. He can feel that he is getting stronger every day on Earth. All kinds of inspiration and progress seem to fall from the sky. The so-called favor of fate is like cheating.
In the later stages, another reason why logistics professions/knowledge professions are often more valuable than ordinary combat professions is that "knowledge professions" are often the holders of a certain principle, and it is easy to get stuck inexplicably. The higher you go, the more metaphysical it becomes. It is not like combat professions, which are simple and can be easily advanced with sufficient accumulation and conditions.
The core reason for Lu Ping'an's strange growth rate is that his "reason" finally won, and he broke through a life and death barrier, and grew up strangely fast.
But the big cat suggested that Lu Ping'an leave as soon as possible.
"Excessive expansion is not good for you. The Life Department is always a profession that pursues 'knowledge' rather than being obsessed with 'power'. You'd better not make the same mistake I made back then. What you need now is accumulation and precipitation."
Mr. Lu accelerated his departure because of this consideration.
Even he was a little panicked by the growing "power". The subtle urge to find someone to fight made him feel that something was wrong.
He vaguely realized that perhaps this world expected him to become a god as soon as possible and become a part of this world's order. This might be a good thing for the world in the short term, but it also limited Lu Ping'an's upper limit, which might not be a good thing for him.
"Clang clang clang."
This time, in the Ship of God, the clanging sounds of the "blacksmith shop" never stopped.
Lu Ping'an personally took action to mass-produce various quasi-polluting weapons and forbidden items, the best of which were naturally the weapons for the backbones.
"Tsk, he's defeated again. Shuiyun, do you want it?"
"Meow is not a rag picker!!" Even though Maomao was very envious of the diamond brass knuckles made for Teacher Chris, he still chose to refuse.
".If you put down those 'failures', I will take it seriously."
"Meow, don't be stingy, meow, we've failed anyway"
Lu Ping'an's "investment ability" to make ordinary weapons quasi-polluting and quasi-polluting weapons directly taboo items consumes a lot of resources and has a high failure rate.
The advantage is that it can be "tailor-made" by incorporating ability modules and the library's forbidden knowledge into it to produce the weapons that professionals need most.
A quasi-tainted weapon that suits you is far better than the forbidden weapons that are required for those levels.
Originally, Lu Ping'an did not mass-produce, mainly because the cost was too high. After the failure, he suffered a huge loss. So he provided more "enchantment services", letting those people process the materials, practicing his skills himself and charging high OEM fees.
But now, even if there is a batch of failed products, we can't let the cat steal them out and sell them at a discount again.
".Even if they fail, they can be activated in batches and become my armed forces."
This is the reason why Lu Ping'an began to invest resources at all costs. For Lu Ping'an now, those "failed products" soaked in pollution can also become reserves in his own arsenal once they are activated.
Since there is no loss in either success or failure, Mr. Lu will naturally not refuse.
During this process, with so many materials to try out, his "Enchanter" path also grew rapidly.
"Pah. Sorry, your weapon broke."
"Ahhhh, no, my little darling, you promised to accompany me to defeat the Demon King!"
"Next."
Without even looking at the drama queen in front of him, you are going to defeat the devil with a second-level quasi-contaminated weapon? Lu Pingan turned his attention to the next customer.
Just like the previous trips, the long window of time was too idle, and a lot of time was wasted on setting up stalls, practicing, and even playing cards (which was the most).
Lu Ping'an set up a blacksmith shop and started hammering and pounding. There were often waves of quasi-contaminated weapons and forbidden items flowing out, and the news that "there is a great craftsman here who can make forbidden items" naturally spread.
It was natural for someone to come to Lu Ping'an for processing. It was a way to practice and get paid. He had no reason to refuse. He had been bleeding too much recently and his financial situation was not optimistic.
[Congratulations to the host, you have successfully broken through and obtained the profession, Gilded Craftsman (Mid-level Silver).]
His craftsmanship has also improved rapidly as he hammered and pounded his way along the road. Of course, this is also because he recently "invested" in several hired assistant craftsmen to share their professional skills and experiences.
It is worth mentioning that Lu Ping'an's "investment" ability has been further strengthened with his advancement.
Lu Ping'an himself felt that the progress towards becoming a fifth-level craftsman was going too smoothly, but Big Cat said that it was nothing.
"This is what the industry calls a 'fake profession'. It was just forced up by someone of your kind. Feel it for yourself. What you awakened should be the lowest-level professional ability. And you can only copy others. If you really want to become a normal fifth-level craftsman, rather than a machine that uses the ability module, you need to work hard to make up for it and turn it into your own knowledge system."
Lu Ping'an confirmed it himself and found that this was indeed the reality. He was afraid that this quick-trained craftsman was just an empty shell to increase the success rate of forging. It would naturally get stuck after reaching a certain level. Even if it was pulled up by other means, it would still be a false career path.
“It’s enough.”
Since it was an unexpected surprise, Lu Ping'an naturally would not refuse it.
With the higher profession level, the success rate also goes up a lot. Big Cat's boots, Xuen's chains (I still helped him to fight, as chains tied to the body are not easy to fall off), and Lu Ping'an's own beheading sword are considered the first batch of finished products.
By the time the God's Ship really reached the other shore, Lu Ping'an's fake craftsman level had been forced to the sixth level by a large number of quasi-contaminated weapons and forbidden items.
