Chapter 337 191: Lamenting the Fleetingness of Life (Part 2)
The energy contained in his body is entirely incomparable to that of an ordinary Emperor.
He distributed power to 185 Puppets, yet his own Realm remained unchanged.
Such terrifying life essence is possessed only by him.
Apart from him, nothing on Blue Star can achieve this.
"Xi, you did a great job."
Lu Xun sincerely felt admiration and praised it, "I find myself unable to do without you."
A little assistant as satisfactory as this is hard to find anywhere.
He decided that even if he had to leave Jinghai City in the future, he would find a way to bring Xi along.
"Thank you for the compliment, I'm glad to be of help." - Xi responded.
"However, this exploration plan needs a little enhancement..." Lu Xun said, shifting the conversation, adding some of his own plans to the original blueprint.
Firstly, there was the Sub-human corpse found in the Rift, named Hamish Crow, from the largest Sub-human country, the Shi'en Kingdom.
He slightly adjusted one Puppet's route, allowing the Puppet to deliver Hamish's corpse and will to the Crow Clan, thereby forming a connection with Shi'en Kingdom's authorities for benefits.
The other task was to have the "Dragon King" visit the Mercenary Empire to meet that group of old acquaintances again, especially Mage Quint, who has an Emperor-level elder who could introduce him to Lu Xun. With a handshake, millions of Trait Points would be credited, how could he not go?
By "making friends," he could also gain a vast amount of Trait Points, and compared to hunting Demon Beasts, exploring ruins, and overcoming Rifts... making friends was much simpler!
Lu Xun does not have to rely solely on fights to thrive.
He upgrades by just touching, and as long as he diligently connects with dignitaries from all over the world, shaking hands with the strong from various races, Trait Points would come flowing freely, right?
Soon, Xi adjusted the exploration plan as per Lu Xun's requests.
A line slightly adjusted, a new line added.
Now there are 186 Puppets.
That's sufficient for now, adding more Puppets would cause his Life Level to drop below Emperor.
That would be unnecessary.
Maintaining his own strength is crucial, he has to protect himself, protect his family, without Emperor's combat strength, Lu Xun would lack a sense of security.
After a few days, once he breaks through to Emperor Tier Two, he would add 300 Puppets in one go!
"The next goal is to become a Catastrophe."
Lu Xun muttered to himself, transformed into Void, left the bedroom, and descended to create a sufficiently large space underground.
Standing still afterward, with arms extended, at a mere thought.
Rustle rustle rustle~
Accompanied by numerous strange sounds rising continuously, strands of vibrant willow branches emerged from his body, detached, and fell.
The willow branches grew wildly, intertwining to form vivid and lifelike Puppets.
Some familiar faces appeared first.
Such as Mage Finn clad in the resplendent golden Pharaoh's Set, of the Undead Race;
Xiong Er with a conical hat and iron staff on his back, of the Iron-eating Race;
Roland, covered in black fur and exuding a fearsome presence, a Werewolf;
Mage Sarnik wielding a Magic Staff, of the Spirit Rhinoceros Race;
And the various brothers of the Zhan Clan, as well as the father and son of the Long Family.
Eagle-faced People, tree spirits, Sea Giants... and so on.
...
And then some Puppets making their debut.
Such as Warriors of the Elf Race, and various Sub-human, Beastman, and Half-beastman Warriors.
Diverse with no repetition of races.
In the blink of an eye, a total of 186 Puppets were crafted.
Lu Xun observed them, and they also observed Lu Xun.
He multitasked, simultaneously controlling so many characters.
The next tasks became much simpler, Xi had arranged legal identities for all of them.
The Puppets need only appear at the designated starting points within the set timeframe to embark on their vast and legendary journeys.
Lu Xun's body is the hub of the Puppet network, with each Puppet being an extension of him reaching out to the world.
"Embark now."
He told Xi, "What comes next, I'll leave to you to arrange."
"Alright, please rest assured and leave it to me." - Xi responded.
Soon, 186 Puppets left the underground space one after another, then through various means, departed Jinghai City, heading to all parts of the world, following their respective paths, marching forward.
After finishing all these tasks, a lot of time had passed.
The sky was already turning white, dawn gradually approached.
Lu Xun returned home, spent some time with his family, and then saw off Xiao Yu to Jinghai First Middle School.
Everything needed for his sister's transfer had been settled.
All she needed to do was to head to Class 3 of Year 1, greet the homeroom teacher, and she could attend school normally like the other Elite students.
Along the way, Xie Manyu felt a bit excited, yet couldn't hide her timidity.
She was excited to be attending the same school as her older brother in the city's most resource-rich Noble High School.
From now on, whether going to or returning from school, the siblings could travel together, inseparable.
Yet she was timid because she left her comfort zone and was coming to a brand-new environment, it was hard not to overthink.
Would the new classmates welcome her?
Would the new teachers like her?
After all, she was once just a child from a common family, though thanks to her big brother, the whole family had now ascended to Elite status, facing these Elite of the Noble School, a natural sense of inferiority lingered...
It's like a beggar who suddenly wins the lottery, becoming rich overnight and achieving a class leap. But the first thought that crosses his mind upon waking up in a mansion the next morning is - where to beg today?
