Chapter 1493: Chapter 1493

1493: Chapter 1489: Avatar Game 1493: Chapter 1489: Avatar Game Maybe it’s time to take a look at the Octopus World, at least to understand the situation with my opponent.

Thinking about it, Lu Ping’an didn’t need to worry too much now.

“Don’t talk nonsense, how can you go there?

Do you know how important you are right now?”

“We really can’t do without you here.

If the Courtyard stops for a day, all work grinds to a halt.”

“Don’t mess around; we don’t want to start the final battle prematurely.”

At Lu’s level of existence, he couldn’t just disappear anymore, and he honestly submitted a request.

Those rejections were indeed the hard truth, Lu Ping’an’s departure seemed like a loss no matter how you looked at it.

Not to mention the distant issues, just the inability to use the Courtyard meant losing at least a few thousand Newborn professionals every day, not counting the progress of those currently cultivating, the production of various weapons, and Taboo items.

Lu Ping’an himself was a mobile logistics base, and could even be said to be the most important part of the production chain, the loss of a single day’s closure would be quite terrifying.

But in the end, he still set out…

He didn’t explain; he only said he wanted to go, and eventually, no one could stop him.

“….Three days at most.” The Military Commission could only impose that limitation in the end.

If Lu Ping’an were just a newbie, or even an ordinary Rule-level professional, his strategic value alone would prevent him from stepping into an enemy Otherworld.

But as a Big Shot, he indeed had the ability to protect himself…

in theory, he had no superiors, and naturally, no one could stop him.

He would notify others as a courtesy to the current interim Command Center and to avoid panic caused by the closure of the Trading Land.

But just running over there, entering an Otherworld as a human, Lu Ping’an was clearly courting death.

When the time came, it might not just be seventh and eighth order, even Quasi-Gods and Avatars of Evil Gods might come personally.

In fact, not just him, other High-level combat powers going there as individuals would basically be asking for death.

Lu Ping’an was even more special, he must be on the hit list of the High-level forces on the other side, with several assassination attempts already made, any enemy would jump at the chance if possible.

So, he made some preparations.

Lu Ping’an’s Advancement to “Malicious Acquirer” was a further “manipulation” of Life, and as a catalyst was his successful creation of another self, Big Cat Kris.

Essentially, it was still a purchase, using Life-points and various hardware of the Courtyard to jointly hatch the opportunity for Life, creating a designated Newborn.

And this time, he underwent the Creation process again.

Now, above the Lake of Life Wishes, a Newborn was rapidly growing.

precisely, a mid-to-large Naga Fishman.

“It looks a bit like you, Meow.”

“Of course, it’s derived from my own flesh and blood…”

“Ah, so it’s like, you’re naked, Meow?

Female, Meow?” Meow asked innocently, but what she was pointing at was the lower half of the Fishman.

Some parts of the Fishman were hidden internally, Meow’s face was innocent, but in reality, she was holding back her mischief, mocking Lu Ping’an.

“….I could mass-produce a few cats to stand at the entrance of the Trading Land as greeters,” Lu Ping’an laughed, if I don’t straighten you out, your cat antics will turn the world upside down again.

Just thinking about copies of herself in maid outfits, bunny girl suits…

or even more outrageously, greeting guests naked in a line made Meow cower.

She pounced over and clung to Lu’s legs begging for mercy, because she knew this man could really do it, and the reason might just be for fun…

she had already seen the Big Cat’s maid outfit more than once!

“Tsk, I was joking; this single cat isn’t worth wasting my points on.”

“That’s good, that’s good, Meow.”

Meow breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to turn her head to look at the naked man, even pretending to cover her face with her palm.

“…But creating a few clones that look exactly like you wouldn’t cost many points.”

Meow’s wails did not stop Lu Ping’an’s work, on the contrary, they added quite a bit of extra interest for him.

As long as the Courtyard is given enough points, the work efficiency is guaranteed.

Soon, a Fishman was cloned…

but he wasn’t a complete life form, at least the current Lu Ping’an couldn’t remotely control a life form from a distance.

“…Uh, it’s kind of hot.”

The Fishman was opened up from the back, turning into a suit of flesh and blood, a scene reminiscent of a horror movie, but for Lu it was just part of the daily routine.

He climbed in, the Tentacles unfolded, and made the neural connection quite easily, after all, in some sense, this was indeed “another Lu Ping’an.”

As for transforming into a Fishman, Lu Ping’an had already had an “example” early on.

He had initially fallen victim to the vile Curse of an incarnation of the Son of the Evil God.

If it weren’t for his immunity to such a level of malicious Transformation, he would have naturally become a Fishman long ago.

Using that Curse as a tether, using his own flesh as the seed, creating a “Fishman Lu Ping’an” wasn’t difficult at all.

In fact, one of Lu Ping’an’s main goals for going there was “Fishman Transformation”…

the Beastman Eikon of his Courtyard had provided a template for seed transformation, but it lacked the Fishman species he needed.

The Long Hand Clan and Fishmen didn’t need this ability, but the Easterners did…

Lu Ping’an had originally rejected this order, but in reality, many people had already made their choices.

Not just the local Octopus front, but considering Earth’s current situation, they indeed needed enough “Elite Fishman Warriors.”

“Shark-transformed Naga Fishman, the Orca among Fishmen, one of the strong races, fierce in nature and preferring solitude, sometimes snacks on other Fishmen, which is why normal Fishmen steer clear of him…”

Just like how the Beastman Transformation includes sub-species of bears, birds, and wolves, there are many types of Fishmen as well.

Life forms require diversity; this is built into their innate structure.

To have strong racial transformations, a sufficient “genetic pool” is needed.

What Lu Ping’an saw was “Ten Thousand Spirits,” a confluence, Fusion, and Evolution of myriad lives; this was Lu’s philosophy and also became the foundation of the Courtyard.

For the commission “Transform into Fishman,” he needed to collect more of the genetic pool.

Merely these finished Fishmen were not enough; he needed a source like “high-dimensional divine objects,” preferably Rule-level Taboo Items.

If not, catching a few Rule-level Fish Kings would also work.

And after completing the first Creation, he didn’t stop.

When the second Creation appeared over the pool, someone suddenly panicked.

The cat has already apologized, so why are you still making them, Meow?!”

Meow fell silent, knowing that since it was an official work commission, she probably couldn’t escape this ordeal.

“Let’s make a deal, Meow.”

“How about a mermaid…

a Mermaid Princess, Meow?

The kind from DiXney, Meow!” Looking at Meow’s eyes sparkling, it seemed she still held a bit of a girlhood dream.

“Upper body like a human?

Lower body like a fish…

If you can’t swim, will you just drown, and if you’re on land, you can’t even get up?

I can do it, but you’d be one of a kind.

Aren’t you afraid of being caught by the opposing Fishmen for breeding?” As far as Lu Ping’an knew, the local Fishmen, perhaps due to long coexistence, had come to have very similar aesthetics to humans.

“…At least, a prettier Fishman, this green one, Meow.”

“How about an anglerfish?

Ha, you don’t want those either, such a picky Customer…”

In the end, unable to twist an arm stronger than a leg, Lei Shuiyun was stuffed into the suit with a disgusted face, cat turned into fish.

Lu Ping’an didn’t waste time; his “vacation” was quite limited, so he got ready and set off immediately.

But the one that eventually emerged wasn’t a duo…

There was an existence, for whom changing races was as easy as drinking water.

“Relax a bit, go with the flow of the water when you use your fins; the harder you try, the more you go off course…” Big Cat Kris, swimming at the front, still had the mood to teach swimming tips to Lu Ping’an.
