Chapter 380 Craftsman’s Talent—Inspiration Bursts!
No matter what, the disappearance of the ghost fog disaster is a great joy.
Lu Yuan strolled on the empty green mountain, enjoying the sunshine filtering through the clouds.
Every sober soldier was immersed in joy. They were not idle, but transplanted the extraordinary plants in the sinkhole and released the animals.
The food and fodder must be prepared before the troops move!
The little mirage dragon and the mother hen met again and snuggled together affectionately.
The cockatrice's round eyes were puzzled. How could you grow so big in just one sleep? Yes, thirty-nine years later, the little mirage dragon had grown a lot. It was already 2 meters long and weighed more than 100 kilograms.
It proudly shook its tail to show its ability. It could now fly at the speed of sound! The mother hen was very pleased, thinking that her child could dig for food by himself.
"Woo!" The old wolf was also eager to try in the sinkhole, shaking his big furry tail.
Lu Yuan originally didn't allow it to come out.
After thinking for a moment, I realized that this guy is already a supernatural being and has quite good resistance, so I allowed it.
"Ahhh!" The ungrateful wolf made an evil and crazy sound, and took a pile of dog shit on the grass with great force. It even barked "Wangwangwang", calling for its owner to come and see.
The longest disaster in human history is finally over - how can we not be moved? Even the animals are extremely excited! They are rolling around and playing with each other like crazy.
"Shit, now you can't even poop, right?"
Lu Yuan beat up the old dog, cleaned up its shit, and brought it to the Sky City.
The passage of time has brought some subtle changes to this city.
Even though the patrol team regularly maintains the equipment here and fills the warehouse with nitrogen, there are still many steel structures exposed to the air that rust.
Under the invasion of the ghost fog, neither animals nor plants can survive for long.
The power of "distortion" can ignite the soul, allowing life to gain vigorous vitality in a short period of time and allowing cells to continue to proliferate, just like cancer, but instead - the life span is also extremely short.
After deformation, they will also lose their ability to reproduce.
Reproduction is the healthiest symbol of nature.
Only the best creatures can find mates and reproduce the next generation.
The deformed creatures are considered monsters and will lose their ability to reproduce, which is a natural cycle.
All kinds of strange-shaped plants and fungi lay dryly on the roadside, and the rotting purple-black spots looked like the symptoms of late-stage tertiary syphilis.
It was a real mess.
Only the "old tree" - the opium poppy - is thriving again, with its leaves all over it emerald green, and it is even living a healthier life than before.
"You are such a good pretender! You swallowed a great spiritual master, and you made a fortune, right?"
Lu Yuan had no doubt that even if humans became extinct, Old Deng would still be able to rely on his ability to "play dead" and survive until the next era.
"Hey, Captain Lu, are you walking the dog?" Guo Weiqiang, the leader of the Carving Engineering Group, ran over and said hello.
"Hey, Lao Guo! Do you want to repair the city's glyphs?" Lu Yuan greeted casually.
"I need to repair some of it. The mucus that the monster spewed out is corrosive, and the walls have been torn to pieces by it."
“That’s a lot of work.”
"Isn't it..." Guo Weiqiang sighed slightly, and everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the sad war.
For the majority of workers, sadness is brewing in their hearts, but they are also looking forward to the future.
Some people have even started counting the spoils and thinking about how to move that large coral reef.
As a leader, it is difficult to help much at this moment.
Lu Yuan silently jumped to the top of the poppy tree and swept the dust on the stump with a broom. There were actually some slides for children to play here, but they were completely rotten at this moment.
A thousand meters away, a group of workers were having a conversation.
"The income from this war...is actually quite a lot, right?"
"It is indeed a lot. The resources in the treasury are piled up in a mess. Alas, I don't know when I can use them."
“Should we move a thousand square kilometers of large coral reefs and transform them into a city in the sky?”
"I don't think it's necessary. All the creatures in the coral reef are dead. It's just a large marble with a hollow center. It's not worth much!"
"How can it not be valuable? It's 1,000 square kilometers, a ready-made coral reef!"
"Cutting off 50 square kilometers is enough... any more is useless!"
Lu Yuanyuan listened to their discussion and a smile appeared on his face.
I turned around and saw a tenacious weed sprouting and growing.
…
The sun came out from behind the clouds, and the golden sun scorched the sea surface. The breeze blew, and the waves sparkled.
Light enveloped the city and life returned.
In this vast world, civilizations come and go. One by one, they come to the stage, one by one, they are excited, and one by one, they leave in loneliness.
From Meida, to Green, Sand, Mandala, Yuanhuo, and then to Nanyu, they all no longer exist.
Time is endless. If the road is only long enough, we will always be an endless passer-by, and we will always see that death comes like darkness and birth shines like light.
Birth and death are really the biggest philosophical questions in the world.
History will not promise anything to anyone, and happiness in this world can only depend on oneself.
Some people live every day like a year and work hard.
There are also people who spend their years like days, watching the world around them.
Some people were at a loss and crowded in the museum.
Some people behaved inappropriately and sighed to the sky...
Now... everything is in full swing, right now!
The new side of life appeared! Suddenly, a strong and subtle feeling burst out from my heart.
It was like a warm current was flowing up my spine and filling my entire brain! It was so powerful and so familiar!
Lu Yuan widened his eyes and suddenly felt happy.
The inspiration of the craftsman’s talent – burst forth!
How long has it been since the last time... Damn, it’s been too long.
This time, the inspiration was so strong that it was unimaginable. Lu Yuan had never felt such a strong inspiration before! It was as if a turbulent ocean had poured into his mind, making him feel suffocated. He was eager to release it in some way! It must be admitted that there are differences between inspirations.
Some inspiration comes from breakdown. The "breakdown artists" born out of pain and suffering can only be said to have "low-level" inspiration.
For example, the "jealousy" and "anger" inspirations of the Rat Man craftsmen are of a lower level because they are only related to individual emotions.
On the contrary, inspiration born from "happiness" and "bliss" is a medium-level inspiration.
After all, happiness is rare and pain is common.
Inspiration related to happiness is rarer, often brings a large number of positive buffs, and is more functional, so it is "medium level".
The grand questions related to civilization can be called "superior inspiration"! Last time, after fighting with [Painted Skin], Lu Yuan used this superior inspiration to create immortal-level equipment.
However, topics like "Life and Death" even surpass inspiration related to civilization and reach the level of "top inspiration"! It is really very rare.
It's hard to describe this strange feeling.
Fortunately, at this moment, his Ren and Du meridians were opened, and his nerve endings penetrated into this world and found the truth of the world.
Everything in the world is "beating", showing its own unique veins. Flowers bloom and fall, tides rise and fall, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. This may be the so-called cycle of "life and death".
A pair of soldiers ran by nearby. They were counting the spoils with great interest and saluted Lu Yuan with a smile.
"Hello, Commander-in-Chief."
"Hello!"
The breath of life emerges in them.
Several Zerg warriors followed the soldiers, crawling slowly.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly. Certain organs of the Zerg warrior were entangled by the power of "distortion", and the rhythm of death was brewing in them.
Their power is obviously weaker than before.
But the Zerg warriors were tenacious; they just endured silently without saying a word.
If it weren't for the "inspirational state", you really couldn't tell that they had some serious hidden injuries on their bodies.
"It's really hard for them... We have to find a way to treat them..."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It is as if everything you see is wrapped in the inspiration of "life and death" and becomes part of the rhythm.
For an artist this is a true paradise!
Of course, although this grand inspiration is powerful, it is still limited.
Lu Yuan can't squander it casually! "Is it a creation equipment?"
"Or save the world?"
"Or... tinker with the Chaos Essence Stone? Make it even more powerful?"
Three options are presented.
Lu Yuan thought about the first option for a while and felt that it was unnecessary.
Even if there are more immortal equipment, so what? Ever since witnessing the true power of the [Ghost], Lu Yuan has set a new goal.
A little bit of ghost fog almost killed the human beings!
Immortal-level weapons, for a ghost of this level of combat power, are still... not good enough. Really not good enough.
It's just a mythical level, it's possible to compete...
As for saving the world...
To be honest, Lu Yuan doesn't have that ability.
After all, craftsmen are not scientists.
The inspiration of "Life and Death" does not mean that those deformed hibernators can be rescued.
These are two different directions.
So, the best way to squander your inspiration is the third one!
Chaos Essence Stone!
"Old Wolf, you can play here by yourself. I have something to do and I'm leaving first."
Lu Yuan took a deep breath, took two steps at a time, and ran back to the Tree of Life. The "Chaos Essence Stone" was then nurtured in the tree hole.
From the perspective of inspiration, the Tree of Life and the Chaos Essence Stone are somewhat different.
The Tree of Life is pure vitality, with almost no other power mixed in.
The Chaos Essence Stone - the power of fiery magma and massive life force mixed together, seems a bit chaotic.
This situation is far from the mythical level!
"No wonder. I vaguely feel like something is missing. This divine fetus has power but no spirit. It's not much different from a robot."
Lu Yuan transferred his soul into the Tree of Life and used his life force to further transform the "Chaos Essence Stone".
In a world full of inspiration, there seem to be endless ideas!
In the past when he had no inspiration, his initial idea was very simple. He used the method of "Yin Yang Bagua" to transform the "Chaos Essence Stone", explained the principle that all things were created by the interaction of Yin and Yang, and nurtured a "divine fetus" that could control both "fire" and "life" attributes at the same time.
But now I realize that this idea is still too simple and too crude... It would be strange if I could defeat the [Ghost]!
Lu Yuan's ambition began to expand.
Countless thoughts are growing in my mind!
"With the life energy of the Tree of Life as 'life', the magma energy in the Chaos Essence Stone as death, and 'I' as the core, a true god can be created!"
That’s right, he wanted to invest all of the huge Tree of Life into it!
This tree is nothing more than the blood vessels and meridians of "God"!
"Chaos Essence Stone" is nothing more than bones and flesh.
And "I" is the real essence.
It is me and I am it.
This new god and his adventures are also my adventures, because... he is a part of me.
"If you want to fight against the [Demon], you must integrate the [Fullmetal]'s ability... Come on, [Fullmetal]..."
Lu Yuan took out a small glass bead without hesitation and integrated the ability of [Steel] into it.
[Steel], an ability above legendary, will automatically exclude other idealistic abilities.
Generally speaking, the owner of the [Steel] ability will not be able to obtain other abilities.
However, the "Chaos Essence Stone" is so special that before it fully grows, it will automatically fuse the absorbed energy.
"Steel's ability must be hidden. It might as well be used as the skeleton of the divine fetus."
"And I have to leave room for subsequent upgrades."
"So, the combat power revealed to the outside world can be pure magma power, pure vitality, plus my own abilities..."
"By the way, what should be the true ability of this divine fetus..." Lu Yuan thought about this question for a long time.
If you stuff a bunch of miscellaneous abilities into it, its ultimate attack power may still not be as great as that of a hydrogen bomb.
After all, human beings' extraordinary powers are really too limited.
So the answer he gave was: [Amplification].
"If this 'divine fetus' can [amplify] human abilities to the level of vision... or just a little below the level of vision, then the usefulness of extraordinary abilities will be truly revealed!"
This is really a great idea, which almost exhausts Lu Yuan’s brainpower and is also extremely difficult!
There are also compatibility issues between abilities. For example, it is impossible to control water and fire at the same time.
Moreover, the more abilities are amplified, the higher the complexity. Therefore, the first batch of abilities to be transformed are naturally the ones on Lu Yuan.
What's more, this huge project is too difficult and may consume all his wealth, so that the little spiritual energy he has is not enough!
"Wife, save me!"
