How Am I Still Alive?

“I never thought the Salvation Army would be so easy to talk to.”

Lu Ping'an was commissioned by a second- and third-tier city to find other members of his club.

Due to changes in the entire world map, previous "plans" and "agreements" must be redone, and it is necessary to adjust the meeting place and contact information.

But the other "god churches" he was looking for were actually those that should have long-distance communication methods.

But they did not give Lu Ping'an, a "high-level person", face, and were even vaguely wary and hostile.

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Pingan understood.

"If I go, we will all become competitors."

It goes without saying how important the "fragment" is. I'm afraid that the gods and high-level experts are now fighting openly and secretly. Not to mention providing convenience for you, Lu Ping'an's presence will probably be reported directly.

In such an environment, the local headquarters of the "Salvation Army" can provide help, which is really beyond expectations.

"It's interesting, this magic plant."

Although the "communication flower" is precious, the major forces are not short of money. When Lu Ping'an saw the local leader of the Salvation Army personally helping him to contact him, he was a little moved, but at the same time he turned his attention to the magic plant itself.

He tried to research, but couldn't find anything that matched his level as a gardener, which was really hard to explain in words.

Although he joined the circle of forest girls who are full of high-level gardeners, and indeed acquired a lot of high-level knowledge and skills from Master Liu and others, he did not spend enough energy and time on it, and he was always a "technician" It is not possible to use it at the level of an "expert", but it is simply impossible to explain the principles, explain its history and draw inferences about other cases.

However, he is still a (middle) high-level gardener, and his specialization is "the link of life". Naturally, he is interested in this magical plant that can span "space".

"Forget it, I can't figure it out through research."

He worked hard, tried, and failed without any surprise.

Lu Pingping could only see that they seemed to be connected to something and led to the underground.

"Go and ask their maker."

After thinking about it, Lu Ping'an decided to go directly to Garden City to have a look.

After all, no matter what you want to do, you need strength. Therefore, among the various tasks in the current work list, advancement is the first, and your main path is still the gardener.

Lu Ping'an actually also discovered that there were many mistakes and problems in his application of the gardener. He had gained a lot during this period and really needed some guidance from the boss. At the same time, he also needed some "allies", at least Mr. Liu, who he had had friendship with before. You can try it.

"The current Mr. Liu should be the version that just came from Earth. He should be able to try to cooperate."

After thinking about it, he left his contact information with the Salvation Army and set off again.

Although the Salvation Army behaved quite friendly and even treated themselves with respect, after all, they were a force dominated by the locals such as the Long Hand Clan, and they were fully involved in the war. Lu Pingan did not want to get too involved with them.

Instead, he sent a letter to Xia Qin through them, saying that it would be best to gather in Garden City. He didn't know if she, who was on the front line, would be able to make it in time.

But he still spends more time on his own practice. The fifth level is already not a low level, but in the following battles and even death battles, this level is really not enough.

"Some headache."

In his own courtyard garden, looking at the flowers and plants that he had raised to death again, Lu Ping'an felt a little helpless.

He did not use his abilities, but only used his "professional skills" to raise magic plants. However, due to his lack of practical experience, he always missed some links.

For example, it is impossible to adjust the frequency of watering and nutrient use according to the situation of the magic plant. For example, there is a conflict between certain types of soil, pesticides, and fertilizers. For example, there are parasitic species next to the magic plant. These failures must be mastered through actual operations. It’s just that Lu Ping’an owed a lot of experience tuition, and now it’s all a failure.

And his sudden interest in this aspect was not just due to advanced needs.

"Ten years have passed. Many things have changed, but what really changes the world?"

In fact, he had already understood the core of the profession of "gardener" from Mr. Liu, which is a profession of "communicating with nature" and at the same time, it is also a profession of "transforming/adapting to the environment".

High-level gardeners are masters of positioning in actual combat, not only because of the restriction that plants cannot move, but also because they use the environment and control it

"Gardeners control and tame magical plants, and magical plants adapt to and transform the environment."

Low-level gardeners and high-level gardeners are not the same thing. The strength of high-level gardeners is also among the highest among professions, but the things they really control cannot move.

A mature gardener's garden is similar to the "Mage Tower" in fantasy stories, not only because of the positions formed by those magic plants, but also because the gardener can borrow and control local natural forces and even nature through magic plants. Laws and become the actual "master of the world".

Lu Ping'an is already at level five, and he already owes too much homework in this area. If he doesn't want to change his main profession, he must make up for it this time.

His ability can also link and communicate, but the level of communication stops abruptly when it comes to magic plants, and it is still the way of playing a low-level gardener.

"If I plant a large garden full of sunflowers, will it reflect the volcanic environment suitable for me? Well, forget it, that doesn't make sense. The flame intensity of low-level sunflowers is not as high as that of my own fire."

Lu Ping'an thought about it on his own, but couldn't figure it out.

At first, he learned a lot on the southern island, but when it came time to go further, he found that he seemed to have learned nothing.

"I need to have my own research results."

Gardeners have always been a research and development profession. Most of them control the environment through magic plants. Many magic plants are their lifelong companions, but Lu Ping'an uses magic plants as tools and consumables.

No matter how fast his research and development is, but in the wrong direction, it still remains at the level of tools, and quantitative changes cannot lead to qualitative changes.

Lu Ping'an also knows how advanced gardeners advance. He wants to develop a "field" by himself, a "my nature" that he can control.

In fact, many fourth- and fifth-level gardeners have begun to do this. "Fighting" gardeners like Lu Ping'an are the ones who really play around.

Just like Professor Kanwen, a third-level researcher can construct his own "botanical garden" and use symbiotic banyan tree links to control countless magical plants, forming his own ecological network.

"If it were not limited to resources and environment, Teacher Wen's accumulation would have actually advanced over the past ten years. He should be at a high level now."

At this time, Lu Pingan missed his expert team even more.

But time is precious, so we can only bite the bullet and work hard.

When it came time to take action, he became more and more convinced of Professor Wen's hard work and difficulties, and gained nothing except a full sense of frustration.

"How about making do with it, advance to the advanced level first, and make up for it later. No, this is the main path, and it's still the sixth level. I guess I won't stay at the sixth level for too long. The cornerstone of the seventh level cannot be chosen casually."

After thinking over and over, Lu Pingan gave up the plan of "cheating". He knew that if he really wanted to go far, he really couldn't play around this time.

He could only continue to collect the local new magic plants as usual, and use his own abilities to piece it together, hoping to get something good.

But before giving up completely, Lu Ping'an, who was just as lucky as he was, unexpectedly met someone who could guide him.
