The touch of a fingertip, bringing a soft, resilient sensation.

A light flick of the finger directly extended gave the feel of a baby’s skin.

It’s just that the cold, unblinking eyes on the smooth cheek quietly stared at him.

“….Three years old?” the woman closed her eyes, her voice as mechanical as ever, but Lu Ping’an heard a hint of helplessness.

“Well, if we are talking about the age of a Newborn, it’s about right.”

The Contractor consistently spoke the truth, but he smiled at the woman before him.

Originally, Chris was in a non-physical state and could only temporarily possess a physical body when serving the garden.

But now what Lu Ping’an touched was no different from a normal human body…

however, what surprised him was that the physical manifestation of Big Cat was right in front of him, and he felt no “threat” whatsoever.

It wasn’t about hostility or anything of the sort; a high-tier professional is a source of Contamination in itself, and such presence would naturally make any other professional feel threatened.

“…Still just a part of the garden, can’t leave…”

With her hands clasped in prayer, the nun sighed as if disappointed, but Lu Ping’an breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the constraints were still in effect as expected, had they been loosened, it would have been quite the troublesome affair.

The more Lu Ping’an understood the world of professionals, the more he was certain that his previous victory was a fluke…

probably most so-called Deities in this world couldn’t match the accumulation of the “nun” before him, who was completely immobile.

“I finally got to hold my mama…

older sister who can’t resist!”

As Lu someone and Chris were conversing, Eve was still happily clinging to Chris.

But gradually, Chris’s calm face began to show signs of distaste.

The next moment, Eve vanished without a trace.

“…..As a manager, I have the authority to kick someone out.”

Seeing that Lu Ping’an noticed her, she explained a little.

“Ah ah ah, that’s too much!”

But the next moment, she was embraced again.

Clearly, she had the authority to kick people out, but she hadn’t set up a blacklist to stop people from coming back in.

Leaving the awkward sisters behind, Lu Ping’an turned his attention to the new courtyard…

or rather, the new world.

This time, unlike the previous half-plane, the view filled his eyes with an entire vast miniature world.

There were mountains, rivers, lakes; Lu Ping’an even spotted the moon, the sun, and stars…

after understanding a bit more, Lu Ping’an confirmed that this was at least ten times larger than the original garden.

If before it was merely a “box garden,” now it truly resembled a “world display case,” even an ecosystem.

Obviously, the garden had had its fill this time.

When he noticed the natural wind, Lu Ping’an was truly astonished.

This meant that this was no longer considered “indoors,” but rather an independent Plane with a complete natural cycle.

[Life-points have been credited, rule building is under construction.

We look forward to the host’s continued efforts to acquire more World Origin fragments.]

Fine, “World Origin fragments,” not putting on any show.

The upgrade through hibernation lasted ten hours, but the overall absorption and evolution would take more than two days.

Watching the nearby terrain undergo slight transformations, Lu Ping’an estimated that this time’s rule building should also be something significant.

[Taboo Library functionality has been greatly enhanced, Beast Taming Area breeding functionality has been greatly strengthened, and the gymnasium’s training acceleration effect has received a significant boost.

Please check the details, host.]

When the wind is favorable, surprises are everywhere; the enhancements of several major rule buildings are also good news.

This time, although there seems to be no obvious material gain, the long-term benefits are probably beyond what multiple worlds could offer.

But what Lu Ping’an was most looking forward to, or rather the main dish of this time, was still the reward of two rule buildings of unknown level.

As far as Lu Ping’an understood, a rule building is the physical manifestation of “rules” in the courtyard.

Previously, such rule buildings that could only be provided by “Rule-Level items,” now this obviously more powerful “World Fragment” digested by the courtyard, what would it result in?

After all, according to his concept, above the Decree are the rules (seventh-tier), and above rules are the “World’s Reason”…

The World’s Reason is the “Truth” held by Deities, often the result of them sublimating a rule into “a Truth recognized by the world.”

Having the World’s Reason can be said to be a prerequisite for Deification.

Only when your “World’s Reason” is acknowledged and absorbed by the current world will you become one of the immortal Deities…

but this is still the “software” the world needs.

The “World Fragments” that Lu Ping’an currently came in contact with were obviously a higher-order matter, which could be considered the “hardware” that operates the world, something that under normal circumstances Deities are not allowed to touch.

Once it integrated into the courtyard, the original Virtual Divine Kingdom’s Half Plane really evolved towards a real world, an overarching treatment that might not even be available in Deification.

“…A Deity’s Divine Kingdom wouldn’t have this level of ‘world recognition.’ You have deviated from the normal Ascension to Godhood path, but it should be a good thing.”

Even Big Cat could only make speculative guesses without much confidence.

“If we could get some more fragments…”

“There would be further evolution, and missing this chance, it’s unlikely that there would be another one any time soon.

But we should prepare for a confrontation with Quasi-Gods and Deities.”

This time, it was the entire Linnu Force that sacrificed “multiple Deities” as a poison pill to pry the World Origin from the hands of a conscious Deity, something a normal Explorer wouldn’t be able to obtain.

At that moment, remembering the treasures of the Meteor Shower, he became more eager, and also thought of another Meteor Shower…

“Right, a few hours ago, I saw another batch of meteor showers, but this time it was a bit different, I’d say, calmer…”

Lu Ping’an shared his feelings and even showed the video to Chris.

Even she rarely showed surprise.

“That should be a God’s Descent…

It’s likely a Deity has forsaken their Divine Kingdom, and other Deities have sent down Avatars!

At the very least, sent down the highest-grade Divine Sons or Divine Envoys.”

Well, those Deities are personally taking part in this.

“Would the loss be great?”

“Immense, it’s like abandoning a part of themselves…

but if they can obtain one or two such fragments, it might be worth the gamble to transcend the limitations of ordinary Deities in the future.”

At that moment, Lu Ping’an understood that he absolutely couldn’t miss this chance.

Furthermore, as time went on, the difficulty of obtaining them would probably greatly increase.

“Not only that, what do you think would happen if this fragment was left for a month or so?

It won’t be a treasure anymore, but a disaster…

And I always feel like it’s not that simple, I have a feeling that since the World Consciousness has a personality, it’s most likely acting deliberately.

What good do you think it’s going to do?”

Events of this magnitude were still too far away from Lu Ping’an, and with too much missing information, he pondered for a moment without an answer and then temporarily gave up.

But what’s most important, as always, are his own gains.

[Congratulations to the host for acquiring a rule building, Lake of Dreams Awakening.]
