167: Chapter 166 Help me pick up a package
Tang Wuying watched the chibi elves flying all over the sky, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
He instinctively took two steps back, pressing his hands emptily in front of his chest while the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably.
"A mistake! Purely a mistake!" Tang Wuying let out two dry laughs, trying to salvage the situation. "It might be that when I was just filtering the characteristics... I seemed to have forgotten to retain the size of the elves. We can start over, really, give me one more chance!"
Gu Han looked at those little things circling around Ier, but his expression was unusually calm.
This thing had already exceeded the scope of his understanding; it should be considered a zoophytic plant, but it also had life forms composed of elemental forces, yet it didn't quite look like a rune creature.
He would need to find some time to study it properly.
"It's fine." Gu Han waved his hand, his tone very comforting. "After all, no one can guarantee that experiments won't have mistakes. This elf divine tree looks pretty good, and experimental failures are a common occurrence. Just pay attention next time."
Tang Wuying was stunned for a moment, and the breath he was holding in his chest finally relaxed. He thought to himself, did Gu Han have a change of heart today? It was truly rare that he hadn't been scolded by him for this matter.
Before he could completely relax, Gu Han's voice drifted over leisurely.
"However, the one hundred million credit points for artificially ripening the elf divine tree just now, send them to my account later. Oh right, and that anti-peeping divine building from last time, get it made quickly."
The smile on Tang Wuying's face instantly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely twice.
He just knew it! How could Gu Han possibly change his nature? This bastard's heart was darker than the bottom of a pot!
Gu Han ignored Tang Wuying's constipated expression and continued arranging tasks: "Right, I have an external assignment for you."
"An external assignment?" Tang Wuying was full of suspicion.
"Take a trip to Wanda Plaza in the new district of Jiangcheng City. On the third floor, in the men's restroom on the far right, help me pick up a package. Be quick-witted and don't let anyone discover you."
What kind of quirk was this? Having to pick up a package in the men's restroom?
Tang Wuying's mind was full of confusion, but he tactfully didn't ask any more questions.
"After you bring it back, I'll give you a vacation. We happen to need to pack things for Jinghai, and one more thing, remember to help me book my plane ticket. I want first class."
"A vacation?!" Tang Wuying's eyes suddenly lit up.
Ever since he became Gu Han's exclusive optimization tool human, he had to experience more than five years of divine kingdom time of work every day. He had been running continuously for who knows how long, doing nothing but optimization every day, and even dreaming of sorting through species characteristics at night.
He could finally take a vacation!
"Woohoo!" Tang Wuying cheered frantically in his heart, patting his chest to guarantee: "Leave it to me, I guarantee the mission will be completed!"
Finished speaking, he impatiently exited the Divine Kingdom.
Returning to the real-world room, Tang Wuying stroked his chin and pondered.
It turned out to be a real-world task; this was the first time Gu Han had ever asked him to run errands outside.
In a place with an exploding population flow like Wanda Plaza, what important thing could there be? Could it be that Gu Han had some shady underground transactions in reality?
"No, I have to go there myself." Tang Wuying made up his mind. He was now a Level 4 Divine Lord anyway, and his martial prowess and strength were incomparable to ordinary people. Furthermore, this was a great opportunity to investigate Gu Han's background.
To be safe, Tang Wuying dug out a set of black sportswear, brought a duck-tongue cap and a black mask, and packed them into a bag. Notifying his bodyguards to stay behind, he sneaked out of the Tang Family villa.
Inside the Divine Kingdom:
Gu Han's attention was entirely on Ier and that group of small elves.
Ier held a tree branch in his hand, solemnly teaching those little elves how to arrange formations.
Although the little elves lacked physical forms, their magical talent was frighteningly high. As soon as Ier chanted a spell, they could trigger the surrounding magical elements to resonate.
Gu Han came to the elf divine tree and tried to communicate with it.
A naive consciousness was transmitted over. Although this tree had been directly ripened to a thousand years, essentially it was still an inexperienced "baby" that didn't understand anything other than instinctively releasing little elves.
Just like the medicine bag sovereign hybridized from those divine plants and mushroom-pouch people, even if artificially ripened, its medicinal efficacy wouldn't increase by much.
This species should wait until it was thoroughly researched before being added to the Ant-man Race.
"I still need to match it with some teaching materials." Gu Han muttered, and with a reverse hand, he brought up the spoils of war from the Kuanglan Divine Kingdom.
With a loud rumble, a huge stone tower with an archaic shape and various halos flowing along its body landed in the open space.
S-rank divine building — [Law Transmission Tower].
This thing was much more precious than ordinary magic towers. It not only covered common magic spells of various systems, but also recorded the lifelong magical insights of successive veteran mages.
Although most of the information inside was water-system magic, and it was mixed with quite a bit of private goods from the Merfolk and the Kuanglan Race, to Ier, it was definitely an immeasurable treasure.
Hearing the commotion, Ier turned his head, his gaze falling on the Law Transmission Tower, and his breathing instantly became heavy.
He hurried to the front of the tower and reached out to touch the tower door. The moment his fingertips made contact, countless magic runes crawled up along his arm, and a massive flow of knowledge poured directly into his brain.
Ier's eyes lit up as if he had discovered a new video.
"This... this actually records such good things inside! The Divine Lord's grace, unswerving unto death." Ier's voice was trembling with excitement.
"Don't get too excited; this tower belongs to you from now on." Gu Han waved his hand.
The earth roared and trembled, and the elf divine tree, the Demon Marrow Divine Wood, along with that huge Law Transmission Tower, were all uprooted from the ground.
Gu Han controlled them, crossing the plains all the way, and steadily landing on the edge of the inland sea.
This was the junction between the Merfolk habitat and the Elf Forest, making it convenient for both races to study magic.
"Ier, I have a task for you." Gu Han pointed at these two trees and one tower, "Run a magic academy here. The Merfolk, the Elf Race, the Ant-man Race, and talented children of all races will all learn magic here with you. I don't care what method you use, pull together a combat-capable mage legion for me as soon as possible."
Ier knelt on one knee and performed the most standard elf salute: "As you command, Divine Lord! I shall scatter the brilliance of magic across the entire Divine Kingdom!"
Now all races within the Divine Kingdom were honest and well-behaved, and the brain storage had been removed. Although the Merfolk practiced racial discrimination, they were equally thirsty for magical knowledge.
Ever since he threatened them last time that if they dared to make trouble again, he would hybridize legs for them, they immediately became a lot more well-behaved.
After arranging matters for the magic academy, Gu Han turned his attention back to the Ant-man Race.
The Swallowing Heaven Bloodline Method practiced by the Ant Queen was a B-rank technique. There were quite a few S-rank Body Refining techniques, but there were temporarily none that could allow the entire tribe to inherit them directly through Bloodline. The Swallowing Heaven Bloodline Method was already the most cost-effective choice. Techniques didn't directly determine the strength of Body Refining, so he could look around more.
If there wasn't a suitable technique, then he would add battle tactics.
The A-rank Burning Sacrifice that Wild King learned from Qu Nimade before his death—that method of burning Origin in exchange for extreme bursts—was indeed useful on the battlefield. It was a popular battle tactic that Body Refining believers must learn, and it could serve as a compulsory course for the Ant-man Race.
But this was still not enough.
After Gu Han opened the trading platform and searched through it, he locked onto a battle tactic worth one billion.
S-rank popular battle tactic — [Divine-Demon Transformation].
This battle tactic was extremely weird; it didn't require practitioners to have high talent. It only required continuously devouring a large amount of flesh and blood, transforming the energy within the flesh and blood into "spiritual charm Origin" to accumulate inside the body.
Once successfully cultivated, one could descend like a demon god, with combat power doubling exponentially. It was somewhat like an upgraded version of Burning Sacrifice, and it wouldn't hurt the Origin, except that it required a large daily supply of flesh and blood.
As for where the flesh and blood came from?
Gu Han waved his big hand, and an urn-shaped building covering a huge area and exuding a strange fragrance crashed heavily to the ground.
S-rank divine building — [Rich-Aroma Old Urn].
