Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 856 - 784: Paper Tiger

No time to waste, Jiang Yuan promptly got up to head to Times Square after hanging up the phone.

There are tons of big malls over there, perfect for gathering some handicraft information and crafting all sorts of people-sized models at will in the Otherworld—it's gonna be awesome!

"I know, I know~"

As soon as he got downstairs, the distinct summer vibe hit him instantly. Cicadas were screeching hysterically; the intense, sunny heat made him suddenly feel like time was reversing.

Clearly, it's already early autumn in the Wilderness World, but it's just early summer here; seems like he'll need a few more months here to synchronize the seasons.

Anyway, upgrading the Paperman and Paper Horse Skill isn't that easy, a few months should be enough to reach Level Ten!

He hailed a cab and headed straight to his destination, firmly believing that binding with the system marked a turning point in his luck, leading to his acquaintance with Chuci, such a talented individual.

No wonder a pressure-free wealthy guy—look at his vision and connections, not to mention, during their chat, he said he had an entire room filled with handicrafts in a mountain villa!

An entire room!!!

When Jiang Yuan realized the implication of this quantifier, he remembered how Chuci once casually mentioned he had a garage...

Indeed, comparing yourself to others can be depressing; comparing items, you might want to toss them; being born into a good life is truly an art!

However, considering the reincarnation process mentioned by Xiao Bai of the Netherworld, if the real world is included, the previous life of someone like Chuci wouldn't be ordinary either.

Oh? Could my system binding mean I also have a significant background?

Thinking about this, he suddenly recalled the unchanging "Thanks for your patronage" from the first twenty-odd years of his life. Did all his good luck go into obtaining the system?

Well, it's a fair trade!

While lost in thought, staring out the window, the traffic jam annoyed the driver, who glanced at the opposite square and made small talk: "A few years back, Transformers were all the rage, on the news, in phones everywhere, with some car repair shops and influencers creating them out of scrap materials.

Tsk tsk, each one bigger than the last, and there were really enthusiasts going everywhere to punch in.

Times Square's owner, not sure what they were thinking, put two huge ones here; at first, they attracted quite a lot of young people to punch in, bringing in crowds, and it was bustling for a while.

Once it settled down, kids passing by didn't bother looking at the Transformers anymore. Yet they kept the lights on, and during the day, it's fine; but at night, driving past here and seeing two half-body figures with green lights appearing from the treetops, it's pretty eerie!"

Jiang Yuan: ???

Been standing here for a few years already?

Sigh! The timeliness of information—you're too busy rushing around to pay attention to this stuff.

After waiting a few more minutes, they finally looped to the opposite side of the road. Stepping off the car, he saw the real face of the "Transformers" previously hidden mostly by green trees—one yellow, one green, probably seven to eight meters tall, and upon close inspection, he could identify numerous car parts, with two pairs of car tires hanging from each thigh.

Overall, it couldn't match the majestic presence of Optimus Prime in movies enhanced by special effects, but for a system needing detailed information gathering, physical samples are much faster than image acquisition, and cheaper too; gathering info on these two big ones only cost 500 yuan.

After circling around them, Jiang Yuan headed straight into the mall behind to collect various model information.

[Are you looking for puppet blueprint?]

[Puppet components can be interchanged anytime (including complete head or individual facial features, hairstyles); closer to human, can be indistinguishable; use Spirit Stone or Immortal Jade for energy source; can fight; can be bound as a tool for command and control anytime.

Current information collected with 95% resemblance, continue collecting?]

Jiang Yuan looked at the exquisite handicraft in his hand, suddenly realized how bug-like "real person handicraft" is in the Cultivation Realm!

Ever since accepting Yun Shu, he instinctively regarded puppets differently, as similar beings. In reality, both she and Yun Ying are top-level, soulful puppets.

However, refining ordinary puppets doesn't require infusing a soul. With sufficient parts, red eyes today, blue ones tomorrow, interchangeable at will; the lavish can even prepare various heads, swapping them as desired!

The ordeal with Granny Huang started because evil cultivators wanted her to refine a batch of pretty puppets for illicit dealings, right?

Not to mention, well-behaved puppets can serve drinks, and after gathering blueprints, combining them with warship-mode Immortal Ships essentially results in ship girls!

"Sigh, my mind just doesn't innovate." He put the small Hatsune Miku handicraft back, his lips curled higher—hee-hee, I'm ready to play for real!

Immediately took a cab home and plunged into the room to start paper crafting.

Yet to reach Level Ten, gaining experience requires using professional paper to create recognized paper art pieces from the compendium.

"Buzz-buzz-buzz~"

Just after dinner, his phone vibrated, and upon opening it, he saw a string of links.

[Chuci: links, links, links...

Bro, look at this crafted piece, isn't it freaking cool? Damn! I said we should customize a mechanical dragon; how about a newly released winged dragon that roars? This totally counts as a mecha monster!]

Jiang Yuan glanced briefly, instantly overjoyed!

Absolutely fantastic!

The mecha pterosaur opened its wings with a swish, designed like a fighter jet's head, raised high, emitting a roar;

Steel dragon's movements were a bit slow, but that framework and those claws...

"Hey? This dragon can totally be replicated with paper crafting, right?" He opened the video to collect information first, then earnestly watched the product showcase several times, identifying quite a few areas needing changes.
