Long Junhai spent a full three months cultivating the divine valley, and he would not be troubled by food problems for at least two years.
After solving the food problem, Long Junhai could finally focus on urban construction.
According to Long Junhai's plan, the first thing to do is to build a highway that runs through the entire country. In this way, both military campaigns and transportation will be very convenient in the future.
However, building such a road would consume a lot of manpower and material resources. If it were built solely by hand, it would take at least 10 to 20 years to complete.
To improve efficiency, we must leverage machine intelligence. But in a world of backward civilization, is an industrial revolution necessary? Even if an industrial revolution succeeds, how many people will actually use the machines it produces?
Because of Shen Gu's success, Long Junhai's first thought was to utilize the energy of heaven and earth. However, his current knowledge of the energy of heaven and earth was only superficial. Where could he learn the advanced knowledge of the energy of heaven and earth? Perhaps no one in the entire Orc Continent understood it?
However, Long Junhai suddenly thought of the mysterious broken jade he had obtained. It contained some scattered methods of using the energy of heaven and earth, which could increase his combat effectiveness several times!
This piece of broken jade was originally obtained from Baiyue's body. Where did that woman get it?
With this question in mind, Long Junhai began to read a large number of books about human history. Because the orcs in the entire Orc Continent are unable to use the power of heaven and earth, the things recorded in this broken jade must be the crystallization of civilization left by humans!
For more than a month, Long Junhai was looking up information all day long. He temporarily slowed down the pace of town construction, which made Medusa and others very curious.
"Your Majesty, why do you like reading all day long now?"
"I don't know. I've helped him transport all the books he could find from the entire Minotaur Empire, but His Majesty still doesn't seem satisfied."
"Or we can ask His Majesty what information he is looking for. Maybe we can be of great help."
After discussing with Princess Wenqin, Medusa found Long Junhai together and asked him for the information they were looking for.
"Your Majesty, what are you looking for?"
"Find some historical documents about humans."
"Searching for human historical documents in the Minotaur library? How is that even possible?"
Medusa and Princess Wenqin were both surprised. They didn't expect that Long Junhai was looking for this kind of information.
Humans have always been an inferior race, and it is impossible for any books to record human history!
Long Junhai smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible. Take a look at this information. This is exactly what I want. The more the better!"
Medusa looked at the pile of broken pages on the ground, picked up one at random, and saw that it actually read: "In the year 1021 of the Divine Calendar, the Howling Wolf King of the Sirius Empire ate nine human hearts and gained the power of human totems. His strength soared, and in ten years he expanded his territory threefold, ushering in the most glorious period of the Sirius Empire!"
Princess Wenqin also picked up a page at random and read, "Legend has it that in the ancient wild centuries, humans possessed the power to crush all races. Because they blasphemed the gods, they suffered a catastrophic disaster."
"In the 690th year of the Divine Calendar, a human slave named Tian Xing led 300 human slaves in the Divine Tiger Empire and annihilated 500,000 Divine Tiger soldiers! This ultimately led to the Divine Tiger Empire's near-death experience for nearly a thousand years!"
"Humans are the most dangerous race, fit only to be driven as slaves. Once they are given freedom, they will trample upon all living things and declare war on the gods!"
…
The more Medusa and Princess Wenqin read, the more shocked they became. They had never known that humanity once had such a glorious history! If the records in these documents were true, then Long Junhai might very well lead humanity to the pinnacle of this world!
"These historical documents all show that mankind was once powerful and glorious, but what I want to find most are mankind's own historical documents, mankind's own development process, and mankind's own wisdom and civilization!" Long Junhai said seriously.
Medusa took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, if we follow the records in these historical documents, human civilization should have ceased in the Savage Age, which is at least three thousand years ago! Even if we could really find the remains of human civilization, I'm afraid it would be incomplete. What use would it be by then?"
"How do you know it's useless if you don't try? At least you should try hard before giving up, right?"
Long Junhai smiled. He was not the type to give up halfway. Once he was serious about doing something, he would see it through to the end!
"Your Majesty, there's a place that might have what you need!"
Long Junhai was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Where?"
Medusa was a little hesitant, because this place was actually just a legend, and whether it could be found was another matter!
"There are two major tribes in the wilderness. One is the Beast God Tribe, which we wiped out, and the other is the Tree God Tribe. The Tree God Tribe is very mysterious. Legend has it that for countless years, only humans have entered, and no one has ever left. Because of the desert, many people dare not set foot on that land. Whether this tribe actually exists is a mystery! But if it does exist, it is very likely that we will find a civilization left behind by humans thousands of years ago!"
Medusa actually didn't want to tell Long Junhai this news, because given his personality, he would definitely take the risk to find the Tree God Tribe. Once danger occurred, it would be equivalent to her killing Long Junhai with her own hands!
"Tree God Tribe?"
Long Junhai muttered softly, then closed his eyes and pondered. Many legends were not groundless, but no one had walked out of the Tree God Tribe for so many years, which meant that the danger level here was extremely high!
However, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit. Long Junhai has never lacked the spirit of adventure. He suddenly opened his eyes and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, let's go to this tree god tribe and find out what's going on!"
Hearing this, Medusa was still a little nervous. She warned, "Your Majesty, this matter is extremely dangerous. I suggest you send a team of loyal and reliable troops to the Tree God Tribe first. After all, the Huaxia Empire needs you, and you cannot afford any mistakes!"
Long Junhai smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Some things must be experienced firsthand. I will be extra careful. We will leave in three days. I'll leave this place to you and Wenqin."
"What! Setting off so soon! Isn't that a bit too hasty? How many people are you taking with you?" Medusa asked.
"Haha, three days is enough. I will go alone and only need to bring horses, food, water and other necessary supplies." Long Junhai once crossed the entire desert alone without any supplies or water, so he felt that he could handle it.
