Chapter 216 A new milestone—achieved!

Lu Yuan stood on a small hill, looking into the distance.

Only his original companion, the one-eyed old wolf, stayed by his side, with his belly exposed, eating chicken bones.

During these past few months, it was really starving, and its developed organs had shriveled up, probably because it hadn't done anything bad for a long time.

This guy has fulfilled his responsibility by not letting his harem starve to death, and he has remained strong until now.

"Can the city in the sky really rise again?" Lu Yuan muttered to himself as he looked at the desolate desert.

No one knows the answer to this question. The old cat cannot predict it, and the conch cannot give an answer.

Lu Yuan felt a little confused.

A long, long time ago, he was a lone man with only a dumb wolf by his side.

Later, he joined some wise friends, which alleviated his loneliness.

Travel together towards a distant place.

These little friends often have special skills and don't require much care.

It’s quite worry-free.

But now, all of a sudden, he had a team! There were many times when Lu Yuan would lament that it was really hard for just one person to handle multiple responsibilities.

Now, the team is really here.

Ten thousand people is a considerable number.

If not used properly, these 10,000 people will become a burden.

If the city in the sky cannot rise, perhaps he will never be able to return to his hometown and can only be a native chief here until the day he dies.

But if you think about it carefully, the conditions seem to be ripe.

The poppy tree is still alive and will recover if given some time.

1,500 Zerg warriors were considered a relatively strong fighting force. As long as it wasn't a war involving hundreds of millions of people, these Zerg warriors were still very strong.

As for the development of technology...

Lu Yuan thought of the Lize civilization.

As long as the Sky City is moved there, it can be exchanged for huge amounts of technological materials.

"The prerequisite is to rise. If it can't rise, everything will be in vain..."

At this moment, a mysterious voice suddenly came from the sky.

[Congratulations to your civilization for achieving its only milestone, the Ninth Era: Peaceful Riders.]

[Conditions for achievement: Be the first to gain the trust of the foreign civilization in a peaceful way and make them willingly join this civilization.]

[Your civilization has obtained the only milestone reward: Mastery]

[Your civilization has received a unique milestone points reward of 5,000 points. (This feature has not yet been enabled)]

I haven't heard this voice for a long time.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, feeling quite surprised as if he had been hit by a lottery ticket.

He soon realized that it was the willingness of most of the Sarai people to follow him to the Sky City after discussion that triggered this milestone.

The conditions for achieving this milestone are really difficult! The most critical factor is "peaceful means and full trust."

Trusting each other is such a difficult thing.

Just like the Lizardmen from the Rize civilization we encountered in the past, they were also very nice and polite.

But if you want him to join the human race...

It's simply impossible!

The people of Rize have their own culture, system, thinking and living habits.

How easy is it to change one's ways? The two sides also look different, so don't underestimate this. Appearance is the simplest and most intuitive "label", which reminds the two sides subconsciously that they are different species.

Only when a strong civilization encounters a weak civilization, and they are of the same race, can the conditions for mutual integration be achieved.

But then again, why should a powerful civilization accept some burdens?

Or in a peaceful way?

Isn't it good to cultivate your own people?

There are no saints in the civilizations that can survive in Pangu Continent! Even in the Green Civilization, although the people are somewhat saintly, the leadership is quite self-aware.

Therefore, by accident, Lu Yuan completed this difficult milestone.

And "control" is also a very terrifying skill, it can almost be said to be a legendary divine skill!

A ball of white light suddenly appeared in the sky and merged into Lu Yuan's soul, making his body continue to heat up.

Lu Yuan had experienced this scene many times and was already familiar with it.

His physical condition is much stronger now than it was back then. He just felt a little uncomfortable for a while before returning to normal.

"The ability to [control]?"

The sandstorm gradually expanded, and everything in sight was trembling slightly.

After identification, Lu Yuan discovered that he did have an extra ability.

[Control: Consume a huge amount of idealistic energy to dominate the target creature and make it submit to you forever. ]

[Spiritual energy includes but is not limited to: the soul of intelligent life, spiritual crystals, the energy of extraordinary objects, one's own fire energy, etc.]

[The stronger the target is, the more idealistic energy is consumed. 】

【Also makes you immune to the "control" ability. 】

[Note: It is a double-edged sword. Those who wield it always dream of conquering everything in the world, but they often die in the midst of being deserted by their friends and relatives.]

Lu Yuan exhaled and looked at the sky. A bright full moon was hanging in the east.

He turned his head and looked at the old wolf again.

He activated his "control" ability, red light flickered in his eyes, and a mysterious feeling surged in his heart.

"Ouch?"

After making an estimate in his mind, the Eternal Fire accumulated only enough spiritual energy for one month to control one mutated wild wolf!

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows. The consumption of this ability was too terrifying. It was hundreds of times greater than space teleportation! So, how can we quickly obtain idealistic energy?

"Spirit Crystal" and "Soul"! "Spirit Crystal" is an important strategic material in civilization, and the reasons for its formation are very complicated.

No matter how powerful a civilization is, there is never too many of them.

It is such a waste to consume it through "control".

Therefore, "soul" has become the cheapest energy.

The higher the divine attributes, the higher the value of the soul.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Lu Yuan sighed. He finally understood why there had to be a "Peace Driver" milestone.

The ability to "control" is a disaster in itself.

Only the "peace driver" can realize its true purpose - "the essence of war is for peace."

"It seems that God is still a saint."

The next second, Lu Yuan's face changed slightly, and waves of subtle feelings came from the depths of his soul.

Because he obtained a new divine skill, his soul was full once again and was about to solidify!

"Alas, these are troubled times..."

Fortunately, this time he brought the Tree of Life with him.

Summoning the big tree from his mind, Lu Yuan transferred his soul over and once again turned into the form of a big tree.

He dressed up his human body a little, pretended that he had "conquered" the big tree, then took a step forward and headed towards the village.

…

The chattering discussion became more and more heated.

In fact, most ordinary villagers are willing to follow Lu Yuan away.

The number of these people may be over nine thousand!

The remaining hundreds of people were mostly the gentry and prominent families in the village, with some food reserves at home... They were really hesitant, but the ordinary villagers had all run away, so what use were these hundreds of people? After deciding on the policy of "following Lu Yuan", these ordinary villagers actually breathed a sigh of relief and were no longer as confused as before.

Men and women sang and danced around pots and pans.

“Leave tomorrow’s troubles to tomorrow. There is no mountain that cannot be climbed, no river that cannot be crossed!”

"Other people's fields always look good, but your own fields will only yield a good harvest if you work hard on them."

A young man named Shamo is encouraging his fellow villagers to make up their minds and comforting them that "everything will be fine."

"Nothing could be worse than right now!"

"A tree that is moved will die, but a person who moves will live!"

Shamo is the smartest person in the entire Shali clan.

In the past few months, he has been learning very quickly. He can learn whatever the old cat teaches him...

The reason is that he possesses the divine skill of "super thinking"!

This is a strong research talent, but he has been living in an indigenous village, which is a waste of talent, and this talent has never been discovered.

It was not until the old cat taught the simplest knowledge in the village, including physics, chemistry, common sense of life, etc., that the desert grew at a very fast speed.

When other villagers were still confused and didn't understand the significance of these things, he had already realized the most profound truth: "knowledge is power."

In fact, the smarter a person is, the faster they can understand the meaning of knowledge and the gap between the two sides.

Only fools and those who are the most stubborn and unwilling to accept new knowledge will get stuck there.

The six young men, including Sha Mo, all understood deeply that only by following Lu Yuan would they have a slight chance of survival.

One of them is a tall young man named "Guo Weiqiang", who not only possesses the "talent for reading glyphs", but is also a junior master of the second level of the extraordinary level.

He scolded rudely: "Why are you crying? Do you know what kind of opportunity this is?"

"Think about it, if the former empire brought us from the remote countryside to the imperial capital, would you go? Of course you would go!"

"What kind of place are we in? This is the most remote place! Who would want to live in this damn place unless it's absolutely necessary? Don't think this place is good, this is a garbage place!"

"Mr. Lu's country is much stronger than the Empire! What are you reluctant to give up?"

These intellectuals are Lu Yuan's most loyal supporters.

"I am even willing to donate all the food in my home!" He never stopped talking until his words shocked the audience.

After hearing what these people said, the other villagers seemed to understand. After all, "empire" was the most concrete thing in their impression.

The title of the Sarari clan is really not that precious.

In fact, in order to survive, the entire village’s population is highly mobile.

Before arriving at Pangu Continent, many villagers went to other places every year... After all, this barren land could only support too few people, and they would not be able to survive without moving.

As for nationalism, it had not even been born yet! The Sarawak people only had some clan culture.

But with the massive death of the population, there are actually only a few clans with large populations left.
