Man on the ark, forced to become king

If we can do that, can we give Theresa a new body in the same way?

Wouldn't that allow me to get rid of this broken body and also eliminate any potential hidden dangers associated with the blessing?

Although it is said to be a pure blessing, who besides Lin Lu knows if there are other hidden tricks in it?

It was unwise to place one's hopes on the kindness of others, and Kal'tsit knew this very well. She would not have wanted Theresa to receive any blessing if there were no other way.

But if you change bodies, everything can be solved!

But would this guy really be so kind?

Kal'tsit's cat ears twitched, and she instinctively felt a little suspicious.

"However... technology can't be given away for free. You have to pay for what you get. This principle also applies to the Golden Tree."

"what do you want?"

The unknown is the most expensive; every gift comes with a hidden price.

Demanding payment actually made Kal'tsit feel more at ease. She preferred a fixed price, even if it was expensive, to the unknown.

It has to be said that this technology did indeed tempt her.

'Hey, silly cat, I knew you'd fall for it.'

Whenever that demon king is involved, this stupid cat's intelligence plummets to a worrying level—Nian keenly discovered this and immediately put it to use.

Just as I expected, it worked perfectly and the fish took the bait easily.

Of course, she didn't have any bad intentions; she just wanted to see if she could squeeze any more money out of this silly cat.

“I don’t want anything, power? Money? Do you think I care about those worldly things? It’s just that this matter is indeed a bit urgent, and I’m just thinking about whether it can be done as quickly as possible, that’s all.”

These words sounded like nonsense at first glance, but after a little thought, Kal'tsit realized that they made a lot of sense.

Although we don't know exactly what Nian was talking about, an ancient deity certainly doesn't need to care about any reward. Their immense power and eternal life allow them to overlook the changes of the world, and everything that mortals pursue is just a fleeting moment in their eyes.

Human ways of thinking cannot be applied to God.

"Simply put, the Golden Tree needs a well-made puppet body. We have the technology now, but we're still missing some materials. If you can provide them, Lin Lu will definitely not refuse to let you participate. At that time, you will not only get the credit, but you can also learn the technology along the way. How about it?"

"that is it?"

Kal'tsit hesitated for a moment, somewhat tempted, but still had some concerns.

The main problem is that this guy's playful nature makes it hard to trust him; even when he's speaking seriously, it feels like he's digging a hole for you.

What good would it do me to lie to you? You're not even worthy of my scheming.

Nian glanced at her indifferently, perfectly displaying the arrogance of a deity.

This indifference and aloofness actually reassured Kal'tsit a lot; in her mind, this was how a god should be.

"I will think about it."

Her careful answer showed that she truly took the matter to heart.

Even if he's a philanthropist, there's probably no need for him to lie to her about something like this. Once they reach the Golden Tree and meet Lin Lu, they'll naturally learn the relevant information. There's no point in making up such a clumsy lie that's so easily exposed.

In other words, this matter is most likely true.

The Golden Tree has a deep foundation and many secrets, but it has only recently been revived, so it is understandable that it is somewhat short of resources; in fact, that is normal.

Well... she's lived this long and still has some connections. Even without relying on the Tower of Babel, it's not impossible to gather enough materials for a doll's body. Even if they're a bit more precious, it's still the same. At most, she'll just have to shamelessly ask a few more old friends for help.

Or, try?

Kal'tsit frowned and thought for a while, her pace slowing down considerably.

Nian noticed her hesitation but didn't point it out. He quietly tugged at Xi's sleeve and slowed his pace, knowing that this move was probably a sure thing.

When it comes to that demon king, this silly cat simply can't refuse!

At this time, Lin Lu, who was far away in Longmen, was unaware that Nian had not only perfectly carried out his instructions, but had also gone a step further—while obtaining the relevant technology, he had also managed to swindle the materials for making the doll's body and free laborers, and the other party was willing to do so.

Chapter 135 Lani: A Personalized Sci-Fi Version

"So that's how it is! I completely understand now!"

Holding the memory crystal specially made by Theresa in his hands, he sat in the Great Blessed Library—once the study of Sir Hundred Wisdom—where the secret method of doll making unique to this world was now displayed before him.

As the saying goes, if you master one method, you can master all methods. Lin Lu had learned a few tricks of doll making from that disgusting guy, Servis, back in the border region. Although the techniques here are slightly different from those in the border region, they are mostly in terms of material differences, and there are still many similarities.

The issues we need to consider now are the materials we need and a sorcerer who is proficient in Originium Memory.

The quality of materials not only affects the body's flexibility and durability, but also its fit, so good materials must be used.

Then there's the body structure, which requires a rather ingenious design. The related design drawings in the announcer's memory all felt a bit strange and couldn't be used directly.

However, revising it only takes some time and is not too difficult; the main difficulty lies in the materials.

Material……

"Should we go find Old Wei again?"

Lin Lu touched her chin, somewhat hesitant.

The Golden Tree has a shallow foundation in this world, lacking both financial resources and connections, making it difficult to gather the necessary materials in a short period of time.

But Longmen is different.

As a renowned commercial capital, Longmen attracts businessmen from all over the world. Wei Yanwu is not short of money, so everyone has to give him some face.

Even the more precious materials can be obtained by him.

only……

Leaving aside whether Golden Tree can afford the cost of materials, even if it can, it will inevitably owe Wei Yanwu a favor.

That kind of cunning favor, tsk.

"Mr. Lin."

A white cat head suddenly appeared at the doorway and called out softly.

"Kal'tsit? What is it?"

Lin Lu glanced at Kal'tsit, wondering what this woman was up to now.

If he weren't so anxious to deal with Lani's health issues, he would have already confronted her about how she had interfered when he asked Theresa for help. Instead of quietly disappearing into the shadows, she dared to come to him on her own initiative? Doesn't she have any self-awareness?

"Miss Nian... she told me some things about doll making. I think I might be able to help with the materials?"

"Hmm, help?"

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

Lin Lu immediately became alert.

If you said this guy just wanted to help, even a dog wouldn't believe it!

"We're all sensible people, so let's not play those games."

After a moment's thought, Lin Lu decided to speak frankly and directly.

The best way to deal with a riddle teller is to prevent her from having the opportunity to tell riddles!

"I……"

Kal'tsit opened her mouth, intending to say something riddle to appease him, but for some reason, when those golden eyes looked over, she felt as if her thoughts were laid bare. After thinking for a moment, she decided to tell the truth.

"I want to learn the techniques related to doll making and soul transfer, and I need a promise from you."

"A promise? Tell me about it."

"I hope that when I need to use this technology in the future, Golden Tree can help me once."

Improving her own status within the Golden Tree or removing the restrictions of the Blessing are of course not as important as Theresa. Kal'tsit can endure the shackles on her body, but she cannot stand by and watch Theresa walk down a dead end.

So she didn't hesitate to ask the Golden Tree for a promise.

Transferring a person's soul into a doll is a technique that is by no means easy to achieve and will inevitably come at a price. Since Golden Tree intends to do this, it must have a way to avoid the related consequences.

"That's it? Okay, but you'll have to pay for all the materials this time."

Judging from her appearance, Lin Lu guessed that the cat must want to use this technology to prolong Theresa's life when she was terminally ill.

Although it was all in vain, Lin Lu didn't mind taking advantage of her.

"can."

"Kelsey."

The agreement was reached, and Kal'tsit turned to leave, but was called back.

Lin Lu's voice came faintly from behind, making her heart tremble.

"The boundary between life and death is not always clear."

"Losing your physical body does not mean the end of life. We can do far more than you can imagine."

"Don't judge us by your past experiences. A frog in a well can only see a small patch of sky no matter how much it explores. The world is bigger than you can see. When you truly become a member of the Golden Tree, you will know what gold is."
