Fang Wen is a sixth-level beast tamer and a fifth-level master craftsman.
In all aspects, he is a top-level expert. He can be called a super expert below the rules level. It is not wrong to say that he is now the "number one expert in the ancient city".
However, she has been very honest recently, extremely honest.
Not only did she act as a free laborer, she also did not have any "accidents". At least she did not fall for the "flaws" given by Lu Ping'an even once.
"Fang Wen, how have you been lately? You seem very satisfied and plan to stay here permanently?"
"...It's like, can I not stay here permanently?"
The woman smiled, holding a kettle in one hand.
Lu Ping'an found her in the garden, watering the magic plants.
"No, that's not necessarily the case. You're taking up some space by staying in there. It's actually good for you and me to be free." Lu Ping'an touched his chin and said as if he would let her go tomorrow.
"Then, shall I go?"
"Well, when I surpass you, at least when you pose no threat to me, I will consider letting you go."
Lu Ping'an was very sincere, but his words were still full of bad water.
When you stop threatening me, I'll start to think about it... I've said this, but I haven't said it yet. Will Fang Wen be no longer a threat in a short time?
Consider it? What should I do if it fails to be considered or re-examined?
Fang Wen smiled and continued to water the flowers with her head down. She also knew that Lu Ping'an was not sincere...if it were her, she would also be without sincerity.
A wise man knows the current situation. After confirming her situation, she knew that it was meaningless to speak harshly to Lu Ping'an. This was not an opponent that could be defeated with words and profit temptations.
Hard words don't work, try soft words... Nice words are of little use, but tangible benefits are the hardest to resist.
She indeed has nothing now, but her job, experience, and strength are still there, so she can continue to generate value.
She tried to improve the relationship, or at least make herself appear less threatening.
A useful person naturally needs more treatment. Even if the chance is very low, after a few years or more than ten years, he may not regard himself as an important threat... Fang Wen is patient, at least,
She did this, even if the hope was slim, at least there was hope.
There are very few fools among high-level professionals. At least Fang Wen is quite aware of current affairs.
Not only would she not refuse Lu Pingan's request, on the contrary, she also hoped that Lu Pingan would rely on her more.
Even if you don't consider the long term, if you want me to do something for you, you should give me some treatment.
You want me to help you forge and modify your equipment. At least bring me some metals and materials so that I can repair my body.
Once or twice, when debts and favors are mixed together, the position will not be so firm.
No, I asked her to cooperate several times, even if it was just labor, it also provided the materials to construct a new body.
Perhaps, this is a tortuous and extremely inefficient approach, but at least it is better than hiding in a corner of this secret realm and waiting for Lu Ping'an's conscience to find out one day.
But Lu Ping'an also saw this aspect very clearly, otherwise he would not have found craftsmen outside. He planned to put Fang Wen out for a while, so that she could be more sensible and take the initiative to find her own position...
. He has no intention of hiding his intention. He will never leave the house until Fang Wen is no longer a threat to him.
"Oh, I'm on my way to the third level. Maybe within three to five years, I'll be at the regular level. Then I can really consider letting you out."
Hearing this, Fang Wen was shocked, and her simulated cheek also showed a shocked look.
Now, all she thinks about day and night is Lu Ping'an, so she naturally knows his background and when he really entered the industry.
Level 3 in three months? Even if you know his experience sharing ability, this is really outrageous...
"This is the tailwind of fate. Perhaps, the moment I pose no threat to you really won't take more than a few years..."
She was sighing and saying nice things. She said that she was like a harmless little white rabbit, and that it was just a helpless coincidence that Lu Ping'an placed her under house arrest.
Lu Pingan smiled and said nothing.
"Whether to release her or not" is a dead end. Since it is destined to be unresolved, the more it is brought up and discussed in detail, the more unpleasant it becomes.
Today, she still needs her help, and Lu Ping'an's attitude is better...
"I heard that you can make metal produce advanced intelligence?"
Lu Pingan knew that this was the ability of the mechanical spiritual master, but how to do it specifically required her cooperation.
Lu Ping An's need is not an "intelligent robot", but "metal materials that can provide high-level intelligence." Perhaps, this is a subject that Fang Wen has never seen before.
A "highly intelligent" demon pet is both Big Cat's suggestion and Lu Ping'an's desire.
Big Cat probably wants to see if the upper limit of this "Life Illustrated Book" is limited to the creation of beasts with low intelligence, or if the level of the "Core of Wisdom" last time was too low.
"The Great Luo of All Worlds"
For Lu Ping'an, a "living armor" that can "automatically process" intelligence, a third eye and a third hand that can help him deal with situations are very much in line with his career expectations.
To put it bluntly, Lu Pingping would be a bit unbearable when another mad dog bites anyone he sees.
Since he needs Fang Wen's help, Lu Ping'an must explain his needs in detail and the function of his "life illustration".
"...There is such a good thing! Can you let me take a look!"
In an instant, the mechanical face that originally had a fake smile revealed genuine urgency.
This is a trading place, and robbery does not exist. Lu Ping'an did not refuse. On the contrary, he also showed the results of the "Life Bank" appraisal and some of his own experience in using it.
Looking at Fang Wen who was excited and lost in thought for a while, Lu Pingan smiled with satisfaction. This was also expected.
Mechanical Spirit Awakening Master...at least Fang Wen's lifelong pursuit is to make his creations become real "living creatures" with independent and complete "self", instead of being infused with power by a mechanical Spirit Awakening Master to act.
"Automata".
Obviously, completely breaking the boundaries between dead and living things goes against the common sense of the world, and only rules-level professionals can attempt it.
Now, when I heard that with just a few materials, I could create a complete life picture book of "real creatures", I couldn't stand it anymore and devoted myself to research.
Lu Ping'an knew that she would not refuse to help herself, because she simply could not refuse the illustrated book of life and the "complete principles of life" in it.
It took more than ten minutes for the big mechanic to calm down.
She looked at Lu Ping'an who was smiling but not smiling, and also smiled, but she was secretly complaining in her heart.
In transactions, those who show desire will naturally be at a disadvantage, and those who show irrational desire will be surprised if others don't kill you.
I want to gain favors and build a relationship with him, but I don't want to ask him for help... Then I will be more passive in the future.
The simplest thing is that if Lu Ping'an wants to do something by himself, he doesn't need to owe himself a favor to give him a chance to show his kindness. He just needs to say "I will show you the book" and "I will show you the recent biological report".
It will inevitably yield.
"...You can let me see your magic pet and touch it with my own hands. By the way, do you have a detailed list of materials? If you want me to help, what are your expectations for your future magic pet?"
But she also knew that she couldn't refuse... she couldn't refuse a quasi-regular creation that used materials to make "creatures" before her.
Yes, she also recognized it. If the sophist's rank was not too low, this life illustration would definitely be a complete rule-level item.
She felt a little sad for no reason. She and her group came here for the opportunity of "breaking through the rules level", but it seemed that she gave the key to "breaking through the rules level" to the people in front of them... At least that was unlucky
The sophists presented their own "Tao".
"I need time and information, tell me your specific requirements, I will try my best..."
Helpless Fang Wen once again recognized the situation, sighed, and prepared to work honestly.
