Genesis: Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 86 Two Hundred Years of Change in the World, New Talents
in the afternoon.

Liu Jun watched the movie online and felt compelled to criticize the rapid changes of this era.

So I decided to check out the book "The Creator Image of the Buddha" to join the fun.

This book is not something everyone can afford right now.

Third-tier books can only be accessed by a third-tier Nen Master.

This threshold is already extremely high.

However, Liu Jun still logged in decisively, without buying any books, and quietly bypassed the encryption to sneak in.

Wow!
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in the starting village.

He played for a while after that.

I found the magic here quite interesting; I might try it sometime to relax.

As for other thoughts?
He didn't.

It's just a simple casual game.

It's good enough that we're just having fun, and we can even steal the magic they're researching.

However, while he was playing, he suddenly saw an old man, an angel, squatting on a bench in the starting village, studying a wind vortex.

Liu Jun was taken aback: "Friend, your technique is pretty good."

"good."

The old man glanced at Liu Jun, not recognizing this unfamiliar third-tier cultivator.

But it's normal not to know each other.

In the fifteen districts of Rehe City alone, there are hundreds of third-level officials, each of whom is a senior executive of a company or head of an organization.

Scattered here and there, plus other cities, there are actually quite a few third-tier cities.

"You don't recognize me?" the old man suddenly said.

Liu Jun said, "Should I get to know you?"

"That's good, you don't need to know me." The old man seemed to have some status and background.

Liu Jun was taken aback.

The park, the mysterious old man, with a powerful background.

Good heavens, isn't this exactly what Xu Changsheng, the protagonist of the next story, should encounter?

I met an old man practicing Tai Chi in the park.

I encountered an old calligrapher at a calligraphy exhibition.

Why does this old man act so pretentious, with that arrogant "get to know me quickly" attitude?

It seems that intellectuals these days are all a bit cyber-psychotic.

This old man wants to become a Taoist master.

If the old man hadn't said anything, Liu Jun really wouldn't have asked about his background. No matter how mysterious his identity was, could it be as mysterious as my immortal god?

Furthermore, the other party is only at the third level of perfection, not at the level of the God of Wisdom, but should be among the strongest group of company management below.

An older version of the domineering CEO.

He certainly has the right to pretend.

Without giving it much thought, Liu Jun deliberately avoided asking any questions and, under the old man's "ask me quickly" gaze, started talking to him about magic.

Then we started talking about biology and social systems.

It was a pleasure to meet you!

They even talked about the Butterfly Clan era, evaluating the various heroes of the Butterfly Clan, engaging in lofty discussions and pointing out the future.

Liu Jun felt that this old man was quite knowledgeable; despite not having actually seen that era, he had said quite a lot.

The old man also thought Liu Jun was quite capable.

Finally, I added him as a friend, and silently left while the other person looked hesitant.

That's when I found out the old man's game ID: [Zhang Baixin].

Below is my personal information:

[The winner of the 37th World Seedling Biology Award, and the founder of Qingdeng Welfare Lottery.]

A world-class award.

Liu Jun cursed under his breath, "Old Deng, did you just write this introduction on?"
Liu Jun finally remembered.

I heard there's a rich old man named Zhang Baixin who's about to die online. He's incredibly wealthy and is the founder of Qingdeng Welfare Lottery.

He likes to act like a foolish landlord and spend money everywhere he goes.

Just like a random NPC encounter, it randomly spawns on the street, in the park, or even in Tier 3 books.

If you spot him and flatter him, he'll spend money on you.

Liu Jun was speechless.

I recalled the pitiful look in their eyes as they waited for my concern:
"This lonely old man is really interesting."

"When you really get into the upper echelons of this world, you realize that these old Dengs really know how to play the game."

The city's residents are like random NPCs, and he sees himself as a lucky encounter that pops up on the roadside, right?

He's just waiting for others to fawn over him, let him show off, provide him with emotional value, and then give them money.

—Mysterious NPCs randomly spawn on the roadside?

Six six six!
But what about the lottery?

Suddenly, Liu Jun thought of something and silently searched online.

You know what, this lottery ticket is really something I'm destined to win.

Because the comment is:
"Ahhh, a while ago a woman in Rehe City won the first prize. She bought a lottery ticket and gave birth to a baby boy. She's become incredibly wealthy."

Yes.

correct.

In this world, buying lottery tickets won't bring you money, but it might bring you a child.

The baby saint that caused such a stir before was actually the winner of the first prize.

Because, as the saying goes, this world values ​​wisdom more than money.

To possess the wisdom of a sage is to have won the grand prize.

The lottery shop was filled with the seeds left behind by the male saint and the core of his direct lineage.

Only beautiful female customers can buy them. For every lottery ticket you buy, you get an injection of a special biological agent.

You will be able to claim your prize in ten months.

The first prize has a one in a million chance of winning, which could directly create a new saint.

There's a saying circulating in Rehe City.

In Rehe City, children aren't necessarily picked up from trash cans, but some are definitely lottery winners!

That's what people are saying online:
"Old Zhang's Green Lamp Lottery is the best philanthropist in the world! Not only is it free to buy his lottery tickets, but he also gives us a 10,000 Nian Dao bonus for every ticket we buy. It's awesome!"

"I buy one ticket every year, and I've never won!"

"Me too, I sent all the discarded lottery tickets I gave birth to to an orphanage."

"As expected of the welfare lottery, it directly connects with welfare homes."

"It's already very good. Buying one every year and getting 10,000 Nian knives as a gift is enough for us to live comfortably for a year."

"Sisters! It's that lottery shop on Dongxin Street in District 12. The announcement for the first prize is still up there. Let's try our luck!"

"I've already gone there, and I even prayed for the release of the Angel Emperor series."

"Hey! I want to buy his, and have a little angelic AI!"

"Are you crazy upstairs? Stop dreaming, okay? My angel husband would never cheat on me."

The top posts are all from girls discussing this.

Liu Jun was not surprised by this.

Many students in Rehe City choose to buy lottery tickets when they are preparing to have children.

Even between married couples, after discussing it, the woman is often encouraged to buy lottery tickets rather than have her husband's child.

This is because those with better genes and higher aptitude have a greater chance of winning the lottery.

One in a billion or one in a million, which would you choose?
Don't let your inferior genes pollute the future of students in Rehe City, you bastard!
It's not certain that Liu Jun's three children are their father's biological children; only their mother is confirmed to be their biological mother.

but.

Whether the children were lottery winners or not, the parents of the three children will not say, for they would take the matter to their graves.

Since their parents are all dead, there's no need to pursue the matter further.

Of course, there were also men who were very dissatisfied:
"One day, I will invent DingTalk lottery so that boys can also make a living."

"I'm so upset. Why don't we boys get any benefits? I wish they would give us 10,000 yuan too."

"It's a win-win situation! You got the child of a powerful person and you got money too. Old Zhang is so good to you!"

"Otherwise, how could Old Zhang have received the Kindness Award? It was this very old man who researched this biological agent and propelled the times forward!"

"I've heard that Old Zhang is still a human lottery ticket; meeting him is like winning the lottery! He'll give you a tremendous opportunity!"

Even now, Liu Jun still finds this world very abstract.

Are the common people of this world not only helping the saint raise his cloned brain, but also helping the saint raise his children?

Adding another cow to a cow.

Green on top of green.

Bitter, too bitter.

I really want to liberate them.

No wonder the people here are filled with longing for the kind and upright butterfly civilization.

This is the perfect utopia they dreamed of.

They all want to be traitors! Come quickly, angels, save us!

"However, this Mr. Zhang is indeed a philanthropist."

Liu Jun felt there was no problem.

The era determines the philanthropic model.

At the very least, he gave you money, gave you a child, gave you hope, and gave a poor family a chance to win the first prize.

Didn't that woman from Rehe City, who won the first prize, become incredibly successful after having a child?
In this world, he truly is a philanthropist.

"That old man is quite interesting. I'll go online another day and chat with him."

Liu Jun also became somewhat interested, after all, he was a recipient of a world-class biology award.

Too lazy to think further, Liu Jun returned to the world of mushroom soup.

A world of mushroom soup.

A century has passed, and time has flowed by.

The creation era has gradually been forgotten by people.

Their attention was focused on becoming gods and cultivating magic and battle qi.

Furthermore, as the various races multiplied, the characteristics of each race gradually became more distinct.

They gradually developed biological characteristics of the reproductive era. With each iteration, their blood concentration decreased, and their bodies became less perfect.

After all, the principle is quite simple.

Woven artworks are the most perfect.

However, the reproduction pattern can deviate from its intended path as generations pass.

First, there's Titan.

The Titans were incredibly strong, and the first Titans were remarkably intelligent. However, as the Titans multiplied, their intelligence gradually declined.

They possess immense strength, yet are relatively foolish.

They cannot yet cultivate magic, but their martial arts techniques are becoming increasingly sophisticated, making them extremely powerful in combat.

The dragon race also discovered this flaw. So they became obsessed with researching reproduction, trying to give birth to holy dragons with various sacred organs, and even interbreeding with other races, attempting to use mutations to select stronger members of their race.

Angels are all powerful magicians.

They also possess extreme fastidiousness and unique aesthetics, and their offspring include two races: winged people and harpies.

The siren clan began to follow the sea goddess Varuna, practicing her water magic and becoming her loyal followers.

The least affected were the elves.

Because the Tree of Life is the only creation tool left by the Butterfly race after the creation era.

They also maintain their physical integrity and reproduce elves through weaving.

Each elf is almost perfectly identical.

They are kind, beautiful, hardworking, and brave; they live in trees.

On the land, five races began to multiply and thrive, and the number of various magicians and aura knights continued to increase, soon ushering in a new golden age.

And, chaotic times.

Small-scale conflicts gradually began to emerge on the land.

The original five races were born at the very beginning of the Butterfly Clan's creation.

They had long since separated from the Butterfly Clan three or four hundred years ago.

They do not consider themselves to be the Butterfly Clan, and naturally they do not consider the other four races to be of the same race.

Although the butterfly people love beauty and are sincere and kind, that's how they treat their own kind.

The Butterfly Clan is decisive in dealing with outsiders.

The Butterfly Clan once killed many Tyrannosaurus Rex, Pterodactyls, and various other dragon species, dominating an era and being a force to be reckoned with by other races.

To other races, the Butterfly Clan are executioners.

The five major races today can also look at the other four races with the same attitude, and can kill them without restraint.

Their beauty was reserved for protecting their own people, and never displayed to their enemies.

Angel Empire.

The Angel King Newbal, after more than a decade of conquest, has amassed a considerable number of Templar Knights and Angel Mages under his tribe.

They don't cultivate wind magic, only light magic, and they are extremely compatible with it, possessing extraordinary talent.

On this day, Newbars summoned his four angels to his palace for a meeting.

He was dressed in a pure white robe, with four pairs of holy wings behind him, and said:

"After Hercules died, this land lacked a new master, a new king, and I believe it should be our angel race."

The Angels were once the original rulers of the earth.

Now is the time to reclaim their glory.

Furthermore, there are only two divine objects in the world, and they must fight and compete for them in order to have the opportunity to become gods.

New Bar said, "We don't need to attack the giant tribes. They have a low reproductive rate, their intelligence is declining with each generation, they are becoming stupid and have no desires. They are still in a primitive tribal mode and have not established an empire."

"And they are the race of Hercules, we will not offend them."

"The siren race lives in the sea and follows the sea goddess. The water magic they cultivate in the hands of the divine being will not compete with us for divinity."

"The elves hide in the forest and have been on good terms with our angels for generations. They have the same physique and the same aesthetic as us, and their numbers are small. They can only reproduce through the Tree of Life, but the number of Trees of Life will not increase. The butterfly race has disappeared."

"On the contrary, the dragon race is incredibly greedy. In recent years, their population has continued to expand and they have been encroaching on our territory. We must go to war."

New Barr saw it very clearly.

Titans and elves are few in number and pose little threat.

On the contrary, the siren, who are just as fertile as them, are the dragons, who are their greatest threat.

Siren live in the sea, and dragons are their natural enemies.

On this day, they attacked the dragon's city of Orise, sounding the horn of attack.

"Are you crazy?"

Alexstrasza roared, "Why are you attacking my land?"

Xinbaer replied, "Back then, our angel king conquered the dragons on earth. Now, you are also a dragon race woven from the prototype of that dragon race, and we will conquer you as well!"

Alexstrasza was furious, and the war between the angels and the dragons began.

One after another, terrifying dragons cultivated battle qi, their physical bodies becoming incredibly powerful. They began to feed on angels, ravaging the sky as if hunting flies.

The angels formed an archery team to shoot arrows in the sky, and magicians also blessed the arrows.

War is the best catalyst for the growth of civilization.

Various war spirits and war magic began to emerge.

The Butterfly Clan, 606.

The angelic subspecies, harpies and winged people, began to attack in small groups.

Seeing this, the dragons began to increase their reproductive capacity, resulting in various dragon legions.

Yuri, the leader of the harpies, was a great mage who used their wind magic—silence magic—to silently bypass dragon cities, penetrate deep into enemy territory, and intercept the enemy's food supplies.

Logistics were cut off, and the front lines achieved a great victory.

This was also the first time that military strategy had appeared in the world.

The great hero Yuri continued to venture deeper, keeping the dragon clan extremely busy and unable to find any trace of him, allowing the enemy to cut off their food supply from the rear.

But at this moment.

A giant dragon named Edel developed wind magic, specifically the detection spell, and used the echo of the wind to capture Yuri.

In one attack, Yuri's banshee army suffered heavy casualties. If she hadn't used her trump card, the opposite of silence: Painful Scream, they would probably have been wiped out in enemy territory.

The Butterfly Clan, 618.

After more than a decade of war.

The various races on Earth discovered the power of magic and continuously developed various light and wind magic.

The angel king, Newbal, further developed the "Chant of Light," which can boost morale, heal injuries, and has a sacred, solemn, and dignified sound.

For the first time in this world, light-based healing magic has appeared.

In the years that followed, he created various light-based magic spells such as "The Song of the Sanctuary," "The Divine Comedy," and "God Loves the World."

Meanwhile, the dragon king Alexstrasza developed his dragon roar magic, which made him famous in a battle on the Lily Plains.

The enormous roar was specifically targeted at flying angels; a single roar could knock down hundreds of elite angels.

The war between the two sides is becoming increasingly fierce.

Furthermore, they both occurred in the same month.

New Bal broke through to become a fourth-tier light mage, creating a profession more suited to them: Sanctuary Angel.

Alexstrasza broke through to become a fourth-tier archmage of both wind and light magic, and developed a hybrid wind and light magic: Dragon Shout magic.

The Butterfly Clan, 648.

Due to the difference in size and race, New Baal was clearly inferior to the dragon king, who was dozens of times larger than him.

However, relying on the fact that their race still outnumbered the dragons, they remained evenly matched.

The two sides finally began a truce and held a ceasefire meeting.

The final result of the meeting was:
The dragons control the source of the wind-elemental artifacts.

The angels hold the source of the divine objects of light.

The dragons established the Southern Empire: the Dragon Court.

The angels established the Eastern Empire: the Holy Empire.

Fifty years have passed quietly in this way.

The Butterfly Clan, 691.

Holy Empire.

Green shade collar.

Liu Jun transformed into a handsome young man with short blond hair and blue eyes, walking across this land.

On the streets, there are many short-winged angels whose bloodline has degenerated. Their wings are short and their bloodline is gradually being diluted, which is also a characteristic of most people in this era.

“It has only been a little over two hundred years since Eden Thoth left.”

"And that's how the world has become."

Liu Jun looked at the street, his expression calm and composed.

The Butterfly Clan did not lose their integrity so quickly; they were simply kind to their own people but cruel to their enemies.

The war between the angels and the tyrannosaurus from years ago seems to be playing out again at this moment.

"They've developed magic quite well."

He looked at the blacksmith shop by the roadside.

A middle-aged angel with calloused hands and dark skin, his wings hidden inside his clothes, was tapping an enchanted short sword.

"The magical tools have also been developed quite well."

He walked around and looked around.

The nobles lived in castles, and the maids were young and beautiful.

"Lord Li Wei, you've arrived." As he entered the banquet, the attendant beside him nodded respectfully.

Liu Jun nodded slightly and went inside.

Their banquet was extremely lavish, with thick wool carpets on the floor and guests toasting each other in the magnificent banquet hall.

They were dressed in magnificent formal attire and talking to each other:

"The gods have already circled the earth and came to our empire last month, bestowing blessings of longevity and wisdom."

"I saw it too, that majestic and sacred butterfly-shaped carriage, like a rainbow streaking across the sky!"

"I feel much younger!"

"I feel like I've gained a lot of wisdom!"

A group of young nobles looked on with longing, for more than two hundred years had passed since the era of creating myths.

But people still tell their poems, those heroic adventures, those thrilling and legendary journeys!
Liu Jun sat down, drank a glass of wine, and the butterfly in his pocket popped its head out and happily ate pastries.

But the nobles present ignored it, as if the amber swallowtail butterfly had vanished without a trace.

“This era is not bad at all,” the Amber Swallowtail said as it ate.

As always.

They ride in a butterfly-cage carriage, descending to bestow blessings every so often, after which he and Ah Feng will travel across the land.

This is the promise Liu Jun made to A Feng.

So they came to the Holy Empire.

For Li Wei, a nobleman of Greenfield, obtaining this status was not complicated.

Liu Jun ate and drank, but his gaze fell on a number in the depths of his eyes:

[Progress: 100%]

The next mushroom is about to appear.

Rush!
With a thought, three talents slowly emerged.

But he fell silent after just one glance.

Because he saw a term in it that gave him the creeps:

[Ultimate Wisdom]

He looked completely bewildered: ???

Liu Jun was immediately filled with unease.

Isn't there only three kinds of wisdom in life?
He remembered that in the game, the Wisdom series only had three advanced sequences.

How come there's a fourth one?
What kind of wisdom is this?
Wisdom surpassing that of sages?

The fourth term terrified him: what kind of disaster would it cause if this thing appeared in this world?
