I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

A raspberry aroma wafted from the glass jar.

"Who is the straw maker?" The exile was also completely bewildered. The Italian gangster girl, who was already uneducated, had no idea who the straw maker was.

However, there is a deity named "Flower Maker," whose honorific title is the Untouchable God, the God Who Forever Preserves What is Desired, the God Who Intoxicates Dreams, and the God Who Strips Colors.

"The Grassmaker is one of the surviving named ones, whose theme is laughter and joy. Among the many named ones in the woodland, the Grassmaker is the most beloved by the Scion. He was once a gardener and a florist, and now he is the lush, dark wall of the woodland."

Heinrich chuckled and continued, "The Grassmaker was once a mortal, then ascended into the Woodland, where he accomplished the great work of his ancestors and became a named figure once again favored by the Woodland. The Grassmaker's power is especially strong in the Woodland, almost equal to that of the Star Lord."

The second half of the sentence is just a joke; even the most irresponsible Si Chen could slap all the named individuals to death.

Considering that Professor Heinrich was a believer in the straw man, saying this directly would easily offend him, so both the exile and the forget-me-not simply gave an awkward but polite smile.

"The straw maker is favored by the moth, the straw maker is favored by the ring cedar, his power is more focused on the former, and his philosophy coincides with the latter... Sorry, it seems a bit of a neglect."

After speaking at length for several minutes, Professor Heinrich finally realized that their visit was not to hear him promote his ideas on straw man making.

“How can you call this ‘seems’? You can drop those two words.” Li Lin said sarcastically from the side. As the lion craftsman’s father, he naturally had the confidence to say that.

Professor Heinrich smiled apologetically.

“But please forgive my bluntness, Professor Heinrich… since you are a follower of the Grass Man, why do you need our treatment?” the exile asked.

Thanks to Heinrich's explanation and Forget-Me-Not's supplement, the exiles also gained some understanding of the nature of the straw maker.

The power of the straw maker includes laughter, absurdity, joy, laughter, and foundation, but given that his most common appearance is a tangled clump of ivy, coupled with the "miracle" of the straw maker's vigorous growth from seeds... it would be absolutely impossible for him not to have studied the aspects of life.

After all, in the mouths of the grass-making believers, the path of "grass" is both an absurdity and a revelation of the foundation.

It is true that extending lifespan through the use of time is the orthodox method, but as the named owner of the woodland, the straw man can take other methods to extend the lifespan of his followers and make them his agents on earth.

“The grass maker can, of course, use a seed to find his apostle as he has done in the past, but I am not worthy of his doing so, for I am not good enough to make him laugh.”

270 Who is the King of Grass Living!

“The grass maker can, of course, use a seed to find his apostle as he has done in the past, but I am not worthy of his doing so, for I am not good enough to make him laugh.”

Professor Heinrich said matter-of-factly.

Only the audience found it inexplicably absurd.

What the hell is that reason?

Can't make yourself laugh, so you don't help your followers?

"So you wanted us here mainly for..." the exile asked tentatively.

“That’s right, I want you to help me get some inspiration and make something that will make the straw maker happy—” As if he felt that his request was too demanding, Professor Heinrich quickly changed his tune, “Or you can make the straw maker laugh.”

The exile's face turned black; what kind of ailment is that?

No matter how powerful time is, it can't cure this kind of illness that's not really an illness.

Only Forget-Me-Not stood by and watched coldly. In any case, this matter had nothing to do with him. But as an observer, he vaguely felt that Li Lin might not give Heinrich any good treatment.

The exile hesitated, intending to refuse Heinrich's excessive request, but just before she was about to speak, she saw Li Lin take a step forward.

“You know, the moment your mother first sensed your presence,” Li Lin said, living up to expectations, “she vomited.”

The moment Heinrich's smile froze, Li Lin opened his arms and snorted coldly, "I have something to say, please listen carefully."

The fireflies floating in the surrounding air suddenly stopped, like a frozen galaxy, and the silvery laughter in the wind disappeared. The plants seemed to be waiting in silence, with only Li Lin's voice echoing in the empty botanical garden.

Something was stirring in the deep darkness, and it seemed it would soon sprout and grow.

[Impact: Budding greenery]

[First-tier "grass" phase influence.]

With a gentle push, laughter and tender buds burst forth from the soil.

[A first-order influence. One "grass" phase influence requires one moth phase, one cup phase, and one heart phase influence.]

When it disappears, it will turn into restlessness!

[The current impact does not exist in the waking world!]

Putting aside the impact of this trend, the grass makers have at least turned their attention to it at this moment.

Li Lin took two steps lightly: "Last time, we talked about the center of the Energy City in the center of the world. The city lord of the Energy City snorted coldly, leaned back and jumped to shoot. There were gods like a forest in front of him."

"In the northern lighthouse capital, the Yongle Emperor, sitting on his throne, held a sniper rifle and looked down upon the world, his eyes filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

"At the highest snow-capped mountain in the south, the sage of the Gu family, who steers the Ice Dun War Treasure, smiled contemptuously, beneath her sled lay mountains of withered bones."

"At Bilibili headquarters, the King of Kings, Emperor Jin Yuan, unfolds the list of the top 100 gods and looks westward across the world. His hero, Queen Lace, carrying the resurrection coin, embarks on an expedition to Gotham's Holy Son, with warships as numerous as the sea."

"On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a young man named Ding Zhen walked step by step up the mountains and reached the summit."

"Great!" Nian shouted from above Li Lin's head.

"And then?" Professor Heinrich asked eagerly. "I can feel the Grass-Gatherer's gaze fixed on this place! He's very pleased, very happy—"

Li Lin scoffed, "Don't you use toilet paper when you poop?"

What does taking toilet paper have to do with storytelling? Professor Heinrich was bewildered, as were the exiles who had been listening intently.

Forget-Me-Not wasn't confused; he had been wary of Li Lin for a while. But this story was actually quite interesting...

The fresh greenery in the air is even more vibrant, as if it can't wait any longer.

After he had finished preparing, Li Lin spoke again.

"The protagonist, Ding Zhen, awakens the Identify All Things System at the beginning. Just then, a mysterious resurgence occurs, and many silent dead emerge from the Pure White Gate and the woodland, seeking the opportunity to become immortals and named beings, and to fight against many historical tributaries once again."

"The immortal 'Underworld Emperor' Sun Xiaochuan of Xindan intercalated three of his past selves, accomplished great feats, and ascended to the realm of the Named One, severing the path to ascension for all extraordinary beings. At the same time, Xiao Zhan and Tang Jia San Shao merged into one, using their deceased wives as sacrifices to perform a ritual and ascend to the realm of the Immortal. The world is in grave danger when they awaken."

"In a moment of crisis, the secret cult of the second dimension, symbolizing beauty and justice, and Bilibili, which worships the Flower Maker, decided to dedicate all its resources to completing the task and offer up several immortals. Thus, Genshin Impact and Jia Ran became the Flower Maker's immortals, but doing so consumed too many of Bilibili's resources, making Bilibili, located in Mansu, teeter on the brink of collapse."

"When it rains, it pours. Taking advantage of the situation, Sun Xiaochuan launched the War of Starlight and attacked Bilibili. In order to prevent it from falling and endangering the world of the awakened, Bilibili's leader, Chen Rui, used all his strength to support Bilibili while fighting against countless dead people, and finally sealed it temporarily."

"Even so, the flame of life in the world of the waking world still burns brightly. The Great Ming Sage Gu Sheng established a religious order to seize a glimmer of hope for all living beings."

"Although Chen Rui perished and returned to the Void Realm, he left behind a contingency plan. He gathered the faith of 22 million beings and resurrected the former named one of the Flower Makers—Empress Lei."

Even though he was deeply saddened by his uncle's death, Ding Zhen was determined to continue. So he bid farewell to his master, Gu Sheng, and embarked on his final journey. Along the way, he encountered Dong Xuelian, who claimed to be from the Great Ming Dynasty. Although he saw through Dong Xuelian's true identity at a glance, Ding Zhen did not expose her. Finally, one night...

"The next day, Ding Zhen discovered that Dong Xuelian had already left him. There were carvings on the cave wall that said she was the saintess of the Chrysanthemum Dynasty and that the two were destined to be apart. Ding Zhen was in great pain, but the pilgrimage had to continue."

"After Dong Xuelian left, Ding Zhen began his pilgrimage again. One day, he met a boy named Cai Xukun in a small town. Cai Xukun spent his days with chickens, and the townspeople thought he was a fool. Only Ding Zhen saw the innocence in Cai Xukun's heart and realized that he was an apostle chosen by an immortal. They gradually became friends and could talk about anything."

"The good times didn't last long. Sun Xiaochuan learned of Ding Zhen's secret and sent a large number of silent dead and several immortals to besiege him. Just as Ding Zhen was about to return to the Void Realm, a rooster crowed in the distance, and then a sun split into four pieces appeared on the horizon."

"What happened now? It turns out that in order to save the lives of all the people in the city, Cai Xukun spared no effort to exert his strength and regain his realm as a Radiant Longevity Being. He destroyed all the Silent Dead and Longevity Beings in one fell swoop, but he himself was also torn to pieces. Ding Zhen held Cai Xukun's body and wailed, vowing to complete the pilgrimage and bring him back from the Void Realm."

"Sun Xiaochuan's power gradually grew stronger. He betrayed Xindan and joined the crowned offspring of Sichen. Many of them began to grow red hair, which was ominous. Just as Ding Zhen arrived at the center of the world, Energy City, he learned that Sun Xiaochuan had gathered the power of several Sichen and was preparing to take over the Mansu gathering point—Energy City!"

"Even though the city of energy is on the verge of collapse, there is still justice that refuses to succumb to the forces of darkness and fights them to the death. This is Shenyang City."

"Under the leadership of Tiger, the named leader of the Double-Horned Axe, they made outstanding contributions in the struggle and achieved a great victory, buying precious time for Kobe, the lord of Energy City. This sentence has always been recorded in the records of the Anti-Suppression Bureau in later generations."

"—The cultivators of Shenyang have nothing to fear in a battle."

"The Energy City is in a critical situation. The center of Mansu is already teetering on the brink of collapse. Before the next 4 a.m., the gathering point will be swallowed up by the Crowned Spawn."

"Just then, light appeared. The city lord of Energy City, a great motorcycle warrior, Kobe, a friend who had once treated Ding Zhen to delicious fried chicken, knew that Energy City was destined to perish. All the people retreated, but he stayed behind to cover the retreat and block the invasion of the Crowned Spawn."

"When Ding Zhen saw Kobe, the great named one was already seriously injured. They were about to leave when they were attacked by an immortal being from the Void Source God in a plane."

"In a critical moment, Kobe pushed Ding Zhen aside and used his invisible technique on the plane—a fadeaway jump shot—while he himself fell into the void."

"Ding Zhen shouted Kobe's name loudly, but the great man could no longer respond to the expectations of his believers with his three-point dunks."

"Along the way, Ding Zhen realized how insignificant he was. He had seen many immortals, and those with names were swallowed up by Sun Xiaochuan. Wu Qian, Dang Mei, Paperclip... one by one, names fell into the void and never shone again. When he arrived in Gotham City, he was warmly received by Mayor He Ran."

"But at this point, a disheartened Ding Zhen no longer wanted to continue the pilgrimage; he only wanted to find a place to live out the rest of his days in a daze. Yet, it was here that he met his lover, Dong Xuelian, and learned a tremendous secret—"

"Those who have died can return through the Second Dawn ceremony by Mayor He Ran's child. He Ran finally agreed to Ding Zhen's request and completed the ceremony to revive the Void Kun."

"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Sun Xiaochuan, wielding the power of the Crown's offspring, attacked again. Gotham was not like the City of Energy; before they could even meet the enemy, they scattered and fled."

"Ding Zhen wanted to escape with the main force, but he thought of Kobe's smile, Chen Rui's shouts, Gu Sheng's teachings, Dong Xuelian, Xu Kun, and the Energy City at four o'clock in the morning. This time, he wanted to be like those people."

"The innocent youth brandished his sword to the sky, facing the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, and declared loudly:"

"Gotham Ahead, Gods Forbidden!"

Exam Week Update

I've actually mentioned this before, but I'll make it more formal by posting a separate chapter.

It's exam week, and I'm crammed with homework and revision deadlines. I really want to get a full month of attendance, but it's just not possible. So, from now until the 15th, updates will be sporadic, and there's even a possibility of missing an update occasionally. Don't even think about updating twice a day. If I miss an update, it will depend on whether I have time.

After I get home on the 15th, I will resume my two-update-a-day schedule. Exam week is an unavoidable event, and I think everyone will understand.

And so it goes (sadly).

271 Damn, it's beautiful!

This joke is extremely tasteless and politically incorrect.

Moreover, it should have received a lot of positive reviews, but because of the damn censorship policy, it was stuck for three days and didn't get the response it deserved.
