"This feeling is really strange." Lu Li stretched his body in his dormitory, his expression somewhat odd.

Now, he is a true human being inside and out, even in his soul. The only difference is that his consciousness is synchronized with his physical body. However, much of this synchronization is blocked. After all, he is just a human now. If he were to be completely synchronized with his physical body's perception, then information that a human cannot perceive would directly burn out his brain.

"Not bad." Lu Li nodded, looking at a dark green bead strung on a red string at his chest. The bead was constantly emitting an aura, continuously Nurturing his body.

This Avatar was not easy to create; it used some of the energy from the world's baptism. Its potential is quite good. Even Lu Li would find it difficult to create a second one in a short period of time, and even if he did, it might not be able to be placed in this world.

Lu Li's expression was somewhat gloomy. This Avatar and that bead were the last things Lu Li could pass on to this world. After passing them on, it was as if the quota had been filled, and Lu Li could not even open the gap in the Dreamlands now.

For a long time, Lu Li could only move around in this one Avatar in the main world. "Even as my main body grows stronger, this Avatar will be rejected. Before that happens, I must find a way to Deepening my connection with this world."

This world hides many secrets. The main players are here, and countless Evil God and great beings are watching them. Although the Man of Light and Shadow had no interest in this place, they gladly settled in Leping City after discovering the stepping stone cheat device.

Lu Li was also very interested in what this world was hiding. If this human Avatar could gain a foothold in this world, it would be equivalent to inserting an outpost into this world. Perhaps Lu Li could also get involved in the secrets of the main world.

"The problem now is to Deepening the connection," Lu Li thought, stroking his chin. "The best way is, of course, to establish a religious order. As long as someone is willing to perform sacrifices for me, this connection can be easily achieved."

"But this approach is absolutely suicidal. My current human body has absolutely no superpowers. At most, forming a cult can only deceive some ordinary people. Moreover, the Bureau of the Countermeasure Bureau's surveillance is also a problem. In a few days, it will probably be taken down."

"The important thing now is to quickly gain recognized superpowers." Lu Li looked at the dark green bead on his chest and thought silently, "Gaining superpowers isn't difficult. Whether with this bead or martial arts knowledge, I can quickly gain a certain level of strength. The problem is how to make it seem reasonable and be recognized."

"I come from a disaster-stricken area like Leping City, where any action I take is easily suspected. Therefore, it's best if the acquisition of this superpower has a clear source, or even be witnessed by relevant personnel."

"That's a bit difficult, but Miskatonic University, where I am now, seems to have some connections, and that so-called library..." Lu Li smiled slightly, recalling someone's reminder, "Perhaps I'm going to become a troublemaker too."

"Lu Li! Is Lu Li there?" Suddenly, Wang Wencheng's cheerful, jumping voice came from outside the door. Lu Li shook his head and opened the door. Looking at Wang Wencheng outside, he felt a sense of unfamiliarity. After all, ten years had passed for Lu Li.

"Is there something you need?" Lu Li asked, slightly surprised, looking at Wang Wencheng outside the door and Chen Qiao sitting in the living room.

"Didn't we run into some trouble exploring the library last night? Let's get a few more people together tonight!" Wang Wencheng said with a hint of excitement. It seemed they hadn't given up on the Mi University's library.

"Don't worry, with last night's experience, we'll definitely succeed!" Wang Wencheng assured him, patting his chest.

"Alright, we don't have anything planned for tonight anyway, let's go check it out together." Lu Li said casually. Chen Qiao was a gamer, so he probably didn't play many dungeons. Lu Li was quite familiar with the nature of gamers of this level on the forum, which was that they wouldn't get up early without a profit.

Players at this level would love to spend all their time getting stronger, and it's practically impossible for them to waste time on childish adventures. So the Mi University's library should really have some stuff. If they could obtain information about superpowers from it, that would be a good option.

"Hey, Lu Li, I see your chest is bulging. Is that something?" Chen Qiao suddenly asked, his expression perfectly natural, as if he had just noticed it and was asking out of curiosity.

"Still too young." Lu Li shook his head inwardly, but outwardly remained expressionless as he took out the dark green bead and asked with a hint of doubt, "You mean this?"

"I found this in my hometown a year ago," Lu Li said casually. "Are you interested?"

"Your hometown is Leping City, right?" Chen Qiao seemed to understand something, and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, I was just curious because I'd never seen you wear it before."

"Oh, the rope broke before, so I didn't bring it with me," Lu Li said casually. This gave the bead a story. There were just too many gamers and superpowered individuals who died in Leping City a year ago, so it wasn't too far-fetched for Lu Li to find an extraordinary item.

Having established some connections with Leping City could deter some people who coveted the bead. It seems that Chen Qiao is quite well-informed. Originally, he seemed very interested in the bead, but after hearing that it came from Leping City, his interest diminished considerably.

This bead actually comes from the Spirit Weapon World. After Lu Li completed the request from the spirit of nature, he received Gift of the Nature Spirit, which was this bead. It contains a large amount of life energy, and as long as you wear it, it can Nurturing your body.

Lu Li retorted that he had processed it a second time, turning it into a magical artifact. Then, he deliberately damaged some of its internal structures, making the bead look as if it had been subjected to some kind of impact and was damaged. Moreover, these structures would gradually collapse over time.

This leads others to conclude that this bead was once a magical item for every player, but it suffered an impact a year ago, damaging its internal structure. As time passed, it broke apart and gradually revealed some special abilities. Lu Li was just lucky enough to find it.

In this way, even if Lu Li can't find other sources of supernatural abilities, he can still obtain some reasonable abilities through this bead and join the circle of supernatural ability users. Of course, it's also possible that a complete novice will come along and simply snatch the bead away.

However, the left and right sides were unimportant, so it was fine if they were stolen. When it was discovered that besides this Avatar, only one small item could be transferred, this bead was the most suitable. I brought it along with the idea that I could take it with me.

This is the fourth update. There will be one more update later, a bonus update for Dao Wenxin's 10,000-yuan reward.
