Chapter 1300: Chapter 1300

1300: Chapter 1286: Reform 1300: Chapter 1286: Reform Throughout the age, most of the time progress moved forward, at least until civilizations met their ends, the overall trend was upward.

Sealing Skill, a technology system foundational to the Silent Mountain Range, after “ten years of development,” had finally been completely mastered by Earth’s technicians.

The combat performance of “one-time use Abnormal Ability Scrolls” notwithstanding, the function of sealing “Taboo items”, “Energy”, and “Demons” had also been mastered and developed into numerous tangible products.

For gardeners like Lu Ping’an, this was good news.

“Space Items that come with Magic Pet Space completely collapsed…”

When Lu Ping’an was weak, he always carried Space Items with Magic Pet Space.

It was specifically for carrying Magic Plants/Magic Pets…

of course, Lu Ping’an used it to deceive others, while in reality, it was quite expensive and not very practical.

Not only did its “volume” tend to be small, but its “Hibernation Space” could only accommodate one life form and it usually wasn’t long before its inhabitants needed to be let out for adjustments.

But in that era, it was already considered highly practical and an expensive strategic commodity, after all, low-level gardeners and low-level Beast Tamers were practically useless without their Magic Pets.

“…This level of Sealing Skill can essentially keep a Magic Pet in the same state as when it first entered, and it’s inexpensive to produce, the business of Space Bags is going to collapse…”

The affected wasn’t just on the commercial level.

“…Sheesh, my Court Gardener Series might as well be almost a waste of learning, right?”

The “scenery” trait of Lu Ping’an meant that he could carry his own “environment” and “Magic Pets,” but now it seemed that its main features were going to be replaced by these cheap industrial products.

“How could it be a waste, isn’t your higher-level ability reliant on mastering the lower-level traits?

That knowledge and skill have all become the material for your next step upward.”

However, Big Cat and the others seemed rather open-minded about it.

“After all, this isn’t the first time something has happened.

Technological progress naturally brings about replacements, many past popular professions have disappeared with the development of the era, such as the Enchantment Warrior Series like ‘Demon Sword’ and ‘Demon Gun,’ which were eliminated by the mass production of quasi-pollution weapons.

They’re even worse off, because of the advancements in craftsman technology, the entire path is abolished…”

Whether this comfort was effective, Lu Ping’an wasn’t sure, but hearing about the “fortunate history” of his seniors definitely improved his mood a lot when he felt unlucky and upset.

These days, Lu Ping’an’s side seemed to be going through an industrial revolution, with new technologies and products coming out every day, each one amazingly cheap…

“These bastards, hiding one by one before, you’re not high-level enough, they even won’t let you know…”

Lu Ping’an had now entered this circle, also because the frontline had begun to tighten, and these church branches had started to bring out the truly good stuff.

And Lu Ping’an also realized that the older, the wiser: these church branches had probably prepared the developers, materials, and raw materials well, using these ten years to climb the tech tree well, resulting in the current “technical explosion.”

“Professor Wen and them in that corner of the world…”

Upon saying this, Lu Ping’an remembered that on his side, there were actually developers too.

Contrary to the consumer-end of the magic potion industry chain like Miss Rou, producers like Professor Wen had to be on the frontline to conduct their research and development.

There was a high chance that they weren’t on the ship, but were conducting their R&D alone within the world.

“Hope they can return soon…”

Lu Ping’an was also aware that, due to the recent return coinciding with the Godfall event, many returnees probably hadn’t found their teams yet.

“I’m being a bit malicious here, but maybe those big churches actually have internal technological connections, and their delaying in fixing the communication network is because they want to use this opportunity to slow down the return speed of the competitors, to gather more fragments and territory.”

Lu Ping’an sighed; although it was a malicious conjecture, his spirituality and rationale both told him that it was mostly true.

But upon truly considering it, his side could probably also gain a lot from this “industrial revolution.”

“Transport and carrying of Lamp Flowers will be a lot easier, demand will surge…”

“I’ve seen them even use it to carry vehicles; if it were possible to carry a Water Motorcycle with you over this sea, it would definitely be extremely convenient.

With that, sales would go up, and my factories could make quite a bit…”

The innovation of technology not only increased the quality of products, but it could also create new demand.

Just the mass production of Sealing Scrolls allowed warriors to carry various facilities and equipment, battle-pets with them, so naturally, the overall market demand increased, and additional consumer growth was inevitable.

Observing these changes, Lu Ping’an felt a bit impatient…

but considering the current situation, probably only after the majority of the personnel had regrouped could he start proceeding.

Looking at the new tech briefings every day, Lu Ping’an also started to become anxious.

He had research results to push out, too; Big Cat, Fang Wen, among others, were all outstanding developers, who could potentially reverse-engineer the Sealing Scrolls once obtained.

Meanwhile, he had to handle the political and diplomatic affairs of his region, consider the commercial operations of the ‘Sun Tree’ street, match wits with the big shots on the Contact Board, actively search for those missing team members, and the most taxing of all, he still had to invest energy in increasing his combat power after juggling all these tasks.

Without sufficient combat power, everything was false, a mere fragile skeleton that could shatter on contact.

But now, what was restricting him wasn’t just these numerous miscellaneous affairs…

“How is the big tree doing?”

“It has grown a bit, but it’s still far from a drastic change…”

Looking at the giant tree stretching outside the window, Lu Ping’an could only wryly smile.

Even though the Sun Tree had rooted itself and adapted to the environment, it was still merely surviving.

Lu Ping’an not only needed the big tree to transform quickly but also ideally spread several small saplings, to facilitate widespread sowing and evolution.

But now, it seemed that not only was cultivation hitting a bottleneck, but breeding had also encountered problems…

“Wait for Brother Guan…”

Back then, the revival and planting of the Fusang tree were done by Guan Xinxian, and the breeding was developed by him alone; the entire Fusang tree technology was developed by Guan Xinxian.

At this time, Lu Ping’an also faced one of the common problems encountered by startups.

It seemed like there were many people, but really when needed, there was a shortage in all areas.

Now, all he could do was patiently wait, waiting for his team members to quickly regroup.

Of course, in the meantime, aggressively purchasing various new products to rapidly enhance his own technological reserves was also inevitable.
