Before the bayonet sees red, everything is fake except strength.

In Lu Ping'an's eyes, it's not just his rank that needs to be improved... He is even thinking about how to clear the way for his companions. What needs to be improved now is the overall combat power.

"...It's too expensive, but there's no other way." Gritting his teeth, Lu Ping'an knew he had to make a choice.

As a result, his total life points, which he finally managed to get positive, became negative again.

Along the way, Lu Pingan has many cards in his hand, some of which are the result of talent sharing, and some of which can also be regarded as gifts from fate.

He has gained a lot from being a scholar, a gardener, a runner, and a soldier.

This is no longer the case where there are so many cards that you can't play them all, but when you get a lot of cards, you just throw them into the warehouse area without even looking at them.

"There are too many cards. Let me read the information and decide which one to play."

“There are too many skill trees, I don’t know which one is better to climb.”

"Well, the upgrade was too fast. The core professional abilities were not upgraded until I learned them. Many auxiliary and secondary professional abilities were not learned or awakened, so I went directly to the next stage... My first level Runners, first-level gardeners, and first-level soldiers all miss many useful professional abilities."

In a sense, this is a trouble that cannot be shared at all...unless Lu Ping'an wants to be sprayed by others, and other bystanders also cheer.

But on his side, it's really a bit innocent.

It only took four or five months for him to go from being an ordinary person to the present. For a normal person, being able to become an official professional requires both talent and hard work.

Well, that's a tangent. Perhaps it was this kind of experience that made him see the unusual "utility" of his "career".

While many professionals regard their profession as a field of lifelong study and a sacred and inviolable sanctuary, Lu Pingan views it with unusual rationality and reality.

"What does it do? What does it offer me?"

In Lu Ping'an's eyes, all these are just tools, either useful or useless, cheap or costly.

It is normal for other professionals to gradually turn them into life and sanctify them during research and training. After putting in the effort, they will naturally invest their emotions. Especially when the true god is involved, and faith is involved, it will naturally become The trouble...some people cultivate themselves and become fanatical believers.

This is the joint influence of both internal and external parties. It is easy to put it in, but it is difficult to pull it out.

But in Lu Ping'an's eyes, even gods are just useful tools, just ladders leading to higher places. Use them if they are useful, and forget about them if the price is too high.

And the pair of eyes he acquired recently revealed the fact...these gods did not provide these paths out of good intentions.

Some people climb the ladders given by others and walk on the roads given by others. As they walk and climb, they become others.

And this "becoming someone else" is not just metaphorical or literal...

"...In a world without gods, is it possible to obtain the power of those 'god-given pathways'? If possible, it is best to filter it..."

This is not only because Lu Pingan wants to borrow the profession of gods in a godless world, but also because he "covets" the power of gods, but does not want to pay too much price.

In his opinion, if you use a metaphor, the "career" given by the gods is like a prepared "one-click decompression package" that is easy to download and use at any time.

It is very easy to use and has a high degree of compatibility. Compared with other supernatural systems in other worlds, it is simple and easy to operate and is large and comprehensive. It has all the abilities that should be available and can also be externally patched.

But at the same time, it is inevitable to "decompress" a lot of "Trojan horses" and "junk files" that should not be used.

The most frustrating thing is that in most cases, this is not the malice of the gods, but you using her power...

"Strength is will, power is body. After seeing the 'real' you, you should already have the answer." Chris didn't care. In a sense, this is also a must for high-level professionals who have stepped out. road.

She just didn't expect that Lu Ping'an would take this step so early. He was not even at the legal level, and he was thinking about "separating the family"... But it was also a good thing. When the time came to force the division, he could pay less. cost.

"I'm just asking you because I understand it. I don't believe that the hidden dangers are so obvious and you, the high-level council, don't have a way to deal with them."

"...Actually, you have a way. You even guessed it. Just ask me to confirm. Yes, that's the answer."

At Big Cat's words, Lu Pingan nodded silently.

"...Scholar?"

The scholar path is the most special of all professions. Not only does it not require the power of gods, but no god can really master a complete scholar path.

It is a ladder to heaven built jointly by countless mortal professionals, and there are not many "predecessors" left behind. The most straightforward thing is that when other paths reach a critical point (lv4, lv7), they will often send a "gift" Traits and abilities.

And it is often a useless passive characteristic, and its actual combat ability is zero...

[Breader (general): A well-read, proficient reader, able to read books (including pollution knowledge) more quickly, and has the characteristics of refreshing, photographic memory, and improved comprehension and concentration when reading. Note: At the same time, the reading resistance to contaminated books is improved, and the ability to understand foreign domain knowledge and texts is improved...]

[Erudition (universal): Being well-read is only a prerequisite. A true scholar can turn any "knowledge" into his own power. Comprehensively increase the learning speed and awakening rate of professional skills and professional abilities. 】

Of the two passive characteristics, the former is given by the ability to "read", that is, the ability to understand and grasp "truth".

The latter is the ability to "write", that is, the ability to transform reality according to the "truth" one masters.

To be honest, the two seem to be somewhat useful, and they probably have been playing a role, but when they take effect, Lu Pingxin really can't feel it...even without the "features" of these two , scholars’ “writing” and “reading” have always played a role in this aspect.



"Scholar, can you even change the 'compressed package' of a god?"

"Why not? Scholars are meant to transform 'pollution' and 'reality'...but if you want to transform the 'gift' of a superior being, your own level must be sufficient."

Lu Ping'an glanced at his scholar panel...

[Professional skills, taboo knowledge (universal) lv33: Due to your understanding of the origin, in a sense you already know everything, which can greatly improve your understanding, recording, and research and development capabilities of other knowledge, methods, and items . 】

[Immortal: I have gradually understood everything...]

Well, that seems to be enough.

"It's not enough. In many cases, whether you can change it is not about whether you have the technology, but whether you have the strength... Well, it might be more accurate to say permission."

Now it becomes even clearer to Ping An. If a programmer wants to change the Shishan code package given above, he needs not only proficiency, but also the authority to rewrite it.

This is of course not a question of "permission". After the priest's compressed package leaves the superior, no one can control what you do, but the question is whether you have "rewritten" his "pen". Can the new code you write be used? embedded in it.

"You are just a scholar at the top of the bronze peak now. You can probably make a slight move to the law level, but it is definitely not enough..."

Just analyzing the offline package of the gods is not something that mortals can do. Instead, the core must be completely rewritten. Not to mention a "curse-level" scholar, even a law-level scholar can only take his time.

"If you are not in a hurry, you can take your time. You can find a way to build your own counterfeit industry and replace the genuine ones with knockoffs."

"This will take a lot of time, and the technical content required is too high. I can't do it..."

Lu Ping An understands the benefits of building from scratch. As long as the technology is high enough, who says knockoffs can't surpass the genuine ones.

But if you need to polish every brick by yourself, the basic knowledge and time required are too exaggerated, and Lu Ping An cannot make it in time.

Based on Big Mao's guess, I'm afraid Lu Ping'an needs to be a fifth- and sixth-level scholar before he can consider taking action on the "clergy", and the effect will definitely not be good. If it is really of practical value, please hire a seventh-level scholar...

"...If I were a seventh-level scholar, I wouldn't look down on those rags from the gods."

"That's the truth..."

Even Lu Pingan himself knows how difficult and difficult it is to be a high-level pure scholar.

The strongest human being is a pure scholar, or so the big cat told him.

Not to mention anything else, the sophist is the "evil scholar" who changed the content of "writing" into "human beings", although the path has obviously gone astray.

But in all aspects, he has crushed a bunch of law-level players. If you give him some time (if he doesn't self-destruct), it will only be a matter of time before he reaches the rule level or even higher.

Scholars have the ability to grasp the truth and transform reality. It does not exclude other professions and approaches. On the contrary, other professions and approaches are the goals of its transformation and nourishment, and are its tools and nutrients.

It is precisely for this reason that the scholar's rank is actually its "level" and the lower limit that it can be rewritten.

Therefore, improvement is not generally difficult, and requires a lot of things...Lu Ping An has already satisfied some aspects, but some things require time to verify and polish, and this really cannot be done in a short time.

"You can't, but someone...has something that can."

"Sure enough, it can't be avoided."

So, the facts are back to the beginning.

"The big library...Why has the price increased again?"

“You get what you pay for because it’s more valuable.”

When Lu Ping An was still a level 2 contractor (pure scholar), it was worth 1,500 points. It was the most expensive of all regular buildings, bar none... At that time, Lu Ping An was really reluctant to part with this money. .

Of course, the main reason was that the road was safe at that time and I was not good enough. Even with the dragon-slaying knife, I couldn't find the dragon. There was really no need for such luxury.

I originally thought that after my career improved, it might drop in price, but the result was just the opposite.

[Construct Forbidden Library (4000) life points? 】

Lu Ping'an glanced at the system prompts and felt a little numb.

After Level 3 Taboo Scholar, it will be at this price, and there will be no discount.

But some money may not be saved.

"You want to use the profession of a god without a god? You can definitely do it, but to be honest, it's overkill..."

Big Cat thought for a while and gave a rough possibility.

"...It should improve all the regular buildings. I dare not say anything else, but the animal taming park will definitely be upgraded to a big level..."

Can it not be improved? Four thousand points, if exchanged for the base price of 1,000 points for a rule-level piece of this cheating Life Bank, this thing is directly worth four rules-level items.

"That's not how it is calculated. Consider the purchase price multiples of the quasi-regular level and the regular level. This several-fold quantitative difference may mean that it is not of the same level as other regular buildings at all. It is a qualitative change... .”

What is above the rules level? Well, Lu Ping'an is a little afraid to think about it.

"Press it. If you lose anyway, you'll have nothing."

So, in an instant, the family fortune that had not been easily accumulated evaporated, and Lu Pingping returned to before liberation overnight.

[Lu Ping'an, 17 years old, life points 951 (-1000)]

And a majestic library responded to him.
