Logging in 500 Years Early, I Became a God by Treasure Hunting

The era of the supernatural has arrived, with changing rules, mysterious forces, and a world in flux. Countless ancient ruins have emerged, and vast amounts of natural treasures are up for grabs.

Chapter 757 The Future Path of the Greedy Demon

Chapter 757 The Future Path of the Greedy Demon

The completion of this transaction not only satisfied Green City, but also Mirage Civilization.

The leader, Dongbi, said excitedly, "Thank you very much!"

"Mr. Lu Yuan, if you have time, you can go to the Eastern Continent and take a look. I can introduce you to some powerful civilizations from the Eighth Era. There will definitely be more big business to be done there."

Lu Yuan was a little hesitant about the matter of the Eastern Continent.

They, from Green City, will not be able to go to the Eastern Continent for the time being. After all, the development of "Myth Industrialization" is in full swing. How can they leave halfway?

As for him and his team going there... he might have to stay in the North for a long time and won't be able to spare the time.

"Can't we just let them come here on their own? A Level 5 civilization should be able to use some naturally occurring spatial rifts, right?"

"Of course, they can indeed come here by spaceship...but the so-called partnership is more than just a business deal."

The leader of the Mirage Civilization lowered his voice, "Your civilization... we are quite optimistic... the Eighth Era, there are still some remnants of its legacy. Do you understand what I mean?"

The old cat widened his eyes and interrupted, "I really don't understand."

Dongbi laughed heartily. "I'm a little ashamed to say this, but the Eighth Era is indeed a bit inferior to the Sixth and Seventh Eras. We didn't make any groundbreaking breakthroughs in the realm of transcendence, and we didn't recapture the moon... We spent an era in mediocrity and inaction."

"However, there are still some Level 6 civilizations willing to take some responsibility... They actually left some things behind..."

"These sixth-level heritages are kept by some old fellows. They are quite rich. Like us, there are many civilizations that possess strange [monsters], and even civilizations that possess [ghosts], [monsters], and [demons]..."

Lu Yuan frowned and said nothing.

Demons, ghosts, and monsters lack intelligence, so I won't elaborate on them. Only demons possess intelligence, and their perspective is quite unique.

He thought of the [Myth of Demon], which was the legacy of the Mo Sect, and wondered where it had gone.

The leader of the Sea of ​​Mirage was vague: "There are many truths about the end of the era that only a Level 6 civilization can barely access. Even our Level 5 civilization is not qualified."

Lu Yuan said: "But we haven't developed to the sixth level of civilization yet, so it seems we can't accept that legacy."

Dongbi smiled again and said, "There's no rush for this. We need to industrialize and develop Shinhwa to a certain level before we can convince those old-timers. Otherwise, they won't give up their power."

"I'm just mentioning that the Eastern Continent has a strong foundation. With a little support from you, you can connect these civilizations into the long river of destiny of the Ninth Era, which is no less than that of the Neutrino Alliance."

Lu Yuan nodded: "I understand. We will carefully consider your opinion. Anyway, as long as the acquired myth appears in the Mirage Civilization, those old guys can't help but be tempted."

Dongbi's eyes narrowed: "Haha, of course!"

After the negotiation was completed, the man and the cat left the meeting room.

The old cat was immersed in happiness and joy, as it was about to control unprecedented wealth.

Lu Yuan was thinking about things related to God.

What kind of existence is God remains an unsolved mystery.

Ever since entering the "concept world", Lu Yuan vaguely realized that [God] was most likely a group.

Since he encountered and killed a white-haired [God], are there other [Gods] active in Pangu Continent?

The answer is yes.

"Our current normal activities are likely a deliberate cover-up by Pangaea... The [Gods] have no way of discovering our potential civilization, otherwise they would have slaughtered us long ago."

Thinking of this, he felt a little restless: "If I have the chance, I really must go and see the legacy of the Eighth Era."

"Buzz—"

The jet engine roared and the spacecraft returned to the rear base.

Lu Yuan was sitting in his seat with nothing to do, and thoughts in his mind were popping out one by one like bubbles.

"Everyone is developing rapidly now, but my personal combat power has begun to stagnate... Ever since I forged the Demon God's Heart, there has been no improvement."

He has some minor troubles.

In fact, this is the norm in the world. How can one person's power always surpass the power of civilization?

But Lu Yuan’s idea might be what is called “greed”. He has no pursuit of material things now and just wants to improve his personal strength?

"But the Greedy Demon's combat power has indeed reached its limit, and it's still a long way from reaching the Eternal Level."

"I can't defeat two [Gods] right now. If two white-haired [Gods] appear at the same time, they will most likely kill me. What's more, the white-haired [Gods] are probably not the strongest ones."

Forge another demon organ?

No, forging organs has marginal effects. The heart has already been forged. Adding some new organs will only add a few more functions, but will not produce any qualitative changes.

What's more, forging organs indiscriminately will disrupt the internal balance and weaken the Greedy Demon.

"From now on, at best, we can only forge some minor functional organs. It will be difficult to achieve another qualitative change in combat power."

"But there is another way."

The first is the integration of capabilities.

Lu Yuan originally wanted to fuse an ability stronger than [Gangfeng], but after trying for so many years without success, he had to give up strategically.

Because the prerequisite for the fusion of abilities is that one should already have the ability before being able to fuse it in - whether it is [Gangfeng] or [Eternal Fire], they already existed before there was a way to fuse them in.

The Sea of ​​Chaos may have stronger abilities than [Strong Wind], but trying it like a headless fly is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"It's better to create a new one myself..."

The second way is...absolute ability.

[Greedy Demon] still does not have absolute power.

This thing can undergo a quantum leap in qualitative change.

According to Lu Yuan’s current understanding, absolute ability may involve “concepts”.

For example, the immortality of ghosts and the immortality of demons are not actually immortality in the absolute sense. However, as more intelligent lives recognize this, corresponding concepts are formed, which further strengthens these abilities.

"So, absolute power is actually related to the cognition of the vast majority of intelligent life."

"What should I do? Deceive the world again?"

Lu Yuan thought for a long time, but he didn't have any good ideas, but this path seemed to have a higher success rate...

Suddenly, the communicator made a "beeping" sound.

After the old cat answered the call, his whiskers trembled a few times.

It seemed like something significant had happened.

"Good...good news!" Old Cat said excitedly. "Neutrino Industrial Union, after hearing we loaned out Li Datie, is finally getting anxious...and wants to offer a high price for him!"

“Anyway, there are still a few master craftsmen, but their strength is slightly inferior to Li Datie, and they can be sold for a high price.”

Lu Yuan just comforted himself that there was no need to be greedy, he didn't need these little things at all.

But even though good things happen one after another, there is still a hint of sadness.

The children finally grew up and could bake cakes by themselves, but Old Lu remained stagnant.

"You can negotiate on your own. I'm going to the North anyway!"

"Old Lu... please! Without you, I, Old Cat, can't suppress them!" This damn cat was shameless and begging, "Please, comrade!"

The members of the Neutrino Industrial Alliance have a variety of appearances, and are composed of several species with relatively high IQs, including humans, dwarves, elephants, octopuses, etc.

Because of the mechanized transformation, their clothes have a cold, streamlined beauty.

"Sir Lu Yuan, let's make it short."

"The conditions offered by our alliance remain the same as before: exchanging knowledge of the [Etheric Spirit Network] for the 'Acquired Myth'. This bargaining chip is no less than that offered by the Mirage Civilization."

The Yanri craftsmen of the Xingyao civilization are indeed believers in efficiency above all else, and they don't engage in those polite words.

"Our alliance's fortune is unstoppable, but... the craftsmen are a little weak. Therefore, you must first train our craftsmen, and then teach them the knowledge related to the [Future Mirror]."

"But the [Etheric Spirit Network] we offer as compensation is sufficient. This is because it is a genuine legacy of a Level 7 civilization, and there may not be another one in the entire Pangu Continent."

Yanri submitted a report.

The other leaders had serious expressions and said nothing.

It can be seen that they are actually a little reluctant... This involves their background.

But the Mirage Civilization has already borrowed Li Datie. If they hesitate any longer and are intercepted by other civilizations, it may take decades for them to recover.

Lu Yuan took the report and read it patiently for a while.

He can read a page of text at a glance.

It only took two minutes to finish the explanatory report of more than a hundred pages.

This impressive learning ability sparked a private discussion within the Neutrino Alliance. Even with their brain chips and Ethernet connections, they couldn't achieve such a rapid reading speed. It seemed the so-called "acquired myth" did indeed possess some depth.

Lu Yuan sighed softly.

[Ether Spirit Network] is actually the legacy of the gear civilization.

That is... [God]!

Of course, it’s not the white-haired monster [God] who plays with concepts.

Instead, it is the "god" who distributes civilization milestone rewards and protects major cities in safe zones.

"God" is built based on the "world will" and is equivalent to the conscious mind of the "world will". It appears to be smarter and more agile, and will have some preferences similar to those of normal life forms.

The original "world will" is subconscious, with greater authority and great power.

But not very smart.

But occasionally there would be some brilliant ideas, such as bringing the Tower Top Civilization to the Pangu Continent.

In other words, as a collective will, the world will has its subconscious and conscious parts separated. It has smart parts and dull parts. The reasons are very complicated, including "Pangu Continent is too big", "too many distracting thoughts between lives", "the speed of information transmission is too slow", "the distribution of intelligent blocks is too sparse", etc.

The significance of the [Ether Lepton Network] is to interconnect all things in life, increase the speed of information exchange, expand the intelligent blockchain, and transform the "world will" into an artificial intelligence with high IQ.

This is definitely an ambitious plan.

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and asked, "That's an interesting idea. So, you're giving us this information so that we can join the [Etheric Spiritual Network] and become one of its administrators? Aren't you afraid that we might leak this plan?"

"Haha, excuse me for laughing at you," Yanri said solemnly, "You created the mythical industrialization, and you've already become a thorn in the side of that unknown enemy."

"We are on the same page. So you won't leak the secret. Besides, many civilizations know about this. After all, my Neutrino Alliance already has many foreign civilizations joining it."

"The construction of the [Etheric Spirit Network] lasted for three full epochs. The Gear Civilization had already completed the corresponding concept at the end of the Seventh Era," Yanri continued. "In the Eighth Era, it lay dormant for an entire epoch, collecting vast amounts of data, iterating continuously, and evolving."

"In the Ninth Era, this network became smarter and more intelligent."

"Before our civilization arrived on the Pangaea Continent, we had some contact with the Gear Civilization. This gear legacy is their greatest treasure left on Pangaea Continent, far more precious than so-called immortal-grade materials or the Gear Treasure Book."

"And you don't have to worry about security issues. The [Etheric Spiritual Network] has deep connectors, like us, and shallow connectors. Most civilizations that haven't been transformed are shallow connectors. It's no different from wearing a jade pendant. It will slowly enhance your divine attributes."

"Furthermore, the civilizations that join will be able to better utilize the authority of the world's will. Idealistic anti-gravity, world seal technology, these level five technologies will consume less energy."

"Especially the World Seal technology. If you want to control a natural disaster-level phenomenon, it's a low-cost, low-consumption technology."

"That sounds quite attractive." The old cat's ears twitched twice, "But these technologies are just icing on the cake for us."

"If you want us to join, you must at least have higher administrator privileges... Otherwise... our survival will be in your hands."

Another leader with an Iron Warrior-like appearance said with a smile, "You may have misunderstood."

"The [Etheric Spirit Network] created by the Gear Civilization is distributed and public. There may be a host, but even we don't know where this host is located."

"As for what we have, we only have some secondary hosts."

"The permissions you will have after joining are based on the network's own algorithms, and the Neutrino Industrial Alliance cannot forcibly tamper with them."

"This technology, which is completely algorithm-based and cannot be tampered with, is the core of my Neutrino Industrial Alliance."

"Otherwise, we would have long since fallen apart due to internal disputes over authority. It's precisely because authority cannot be tampered with that we've been able to develop smoothly to this day. The greater your contribution to the world, the higher your authority will be. I believe that Green City will have a good position."

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows. It sounded a bit like the blockchain technology of the Earth era. As long as you provide computing power, you can get virtual currency.

"Leaders, what do you think?" Lu Yuan asked several intermediary guarantors of the Buzhou Alliance.

This kind of poaching behavior in public must be questioned to the leader.

A stranger from the Bai Ze civilization smiled and said, "Sir Lu Yuan, don't worry."

"Our Buzhou Alliance is a loose organization, and we don't exclude you from joining other circles. Our goal is to fight against the disaster of the era, not to dominate the world."

"Of course, please keep it confidential. I hope you won't make a big fuss about it and let everyone in civilization know about it. If public opinion gets heated, it will inevitably be embarrassing."

"Based on our assessment, the [Etheric Spirit Network] is indeed a good thing. It complements the industrialization of mythology and is not mutually exclusive. If the time is right, we will also promote it."

Now that the "myth industrialization" has come out, these old aliens are all broad-minded and fat.

Do whatever you like.

Anyway, my Buzhou Alliance is already the number one alliance and will remain standing.
