Chapter 306 The Joy of Harvest
The dripping rain brought white water vapor, and the whole forest slowly disappeared in the thick fog, making people feel like they were in a tension-filled ink painting.
Lu Yuan suddenly remembered that more than 18,000 days ago, he was also leaning against the wall, looking at the vast sky alone, thinking about his fate tomorrow.
At that time, the wooden statues in his hands were his father, mother and sister who were far away in the world. There were only some books about the Meda civilization and a wolf around them.
A feeling of loneliness suddenly arose in my heart.
"My friends, I'm back again..."
"This time, I'm just staying for a while. My friends, thank you very much for leaving me a treasure."
"I have gained a lot and experienced many stories over the years. Do you want to hear them?"
Lu Yuan picked up a piece of wood and a knife from the storage space.
It is the same sculpture, but it has become a castle in the sky, a turtle, a poppy tree, and a person.
The level of craftsmanship is incomparable to the past.
Just a few strokes give it a subtle sense of reality.
"Tsk..." Lu Yuan sighed. Although his skills had improved a lot, his emotions were not as rich as they were back then.
He picked up the tea-colored form [Central Archives C Library, Performance List], and some waxy yellow mold had grown on the names of several Meida people, "Ke Dagou", "Ker Gou", and "Xinqi Gou".
Who doesn’t miss his youth? Even if the past wasn’t so beautiful, it was his youth that quietly passed away. Now, he doesn’t think that he is still a young man full of vigor and vitality.
Speaking of which, the remains of the Meda civilization had indeed never treated Old Lu unfairly.
Lu Yuan took out a "Basic Carving Textbook" and a "Super Fire Textbook" that had been cultivated to level six from the storage space and placed them under the golden statue.
He took away a lot of wealth, but he had to leave some behind.
Anyone who comes here later can get them.
“Wangwangwang!!”
The old wolf came trotting back from the drizzle, followed by a few wet female wolves, shaking their bodies.
The hair is shiny and glossy, and looks pretty good.
The old wolf held up Lu Yuan's trouser leg, and made a "hululu" sound in his throat to please him. He showed an evil and arrogant expression, "You should know what I mean, right, Master?" Lu Yuan showed a sad look, "Maybe this is your great-great-granddaughter, Brother Wolf, how can you do this!" When the female wolves saw him, their eyes were somewhat alert, just like the group of female wolves back then.
Lu Yuan casually took out a piece of chicken from the storage space and threw it to them.
Suddenly, the female wolves were shocked and took advantage of the situation while they lowered their heads to eat the food.
Then, there occurred an indescribable harmony of life. The fellow was still strong and happy, and in a rare mood.
Watching Lao Lang's powerful performance, Lu Yuan laughed, and the loneliness in his heart gradually disappeared.
At this moment, a sound came from the headphones.
"Captain Lu, the extraordinary resources here are so abundant! There are a lot of extraordinary creatures nearby, and they are growing very well! We have observed five species so far, and they are better than those outside."
"That Venus flytrap... is too strong. It is extremely valuable! According to preliminary estimates, its price is over one thousand spiritual charms!"
one thousand?!
This number is truly touching.
The soldiers talked about it: "Hey, this is Captain Lu's second hometown, the last remnant of a civilization, how can it not be rich?"
"But how can we dig it out intact?"
"Picking up some trash and bringing it back can be considered a souvenir."
Listening to the enthusiastic voices of the crowd in the headset, Lu Yuan smiled and said, "This data center was my old home, so don't destroy it. You can pick up the rest of the garbage as you like."
"Is this your old home?" Hai Luo held up a small umbrella and ran into the house. The rain wet the ends of her hair.
"Yes, for six years."
"The six years back then were so long. Every day was filled with torment and anticipation. It's not like now, when you open your eyes and close them, it's a day..."
Lu Yuan always felt that time was passing faster and faster, just like the memories left by the past thirty years were not as good as the first six years of survival in the wilderness.
The conch looked very happy, touching things here and there like a child.
He squatted down again and discovered the gold carvings in the corner of the wall.
He even picked it up and pondered it for a long time. After seeing the pretentious quotes, he put the little golden man back, and a narrow smile appeared in his big eyes.
Lu Yuan was naturally thick-skinned. He pinched her face and then pinched her ears: "Alas, life alone is like this. I was so poor back then, and there was no girl to take care of me. Now... well, I have money but cannot spend it, and I am still poor, but I can see beautiful girls every day, and I am still very happy."
“How about the kids in outdoor survival?”
The conch quickly replied, "At first they were so happy, thinking they were going on an outing, but they became quiet after being hungry for a day. After a month, even if they didn't encounter any enemies, they generally lost a lot of weight."
"But there are some children who are able to plan for risks and benefits. Although their skills are a little lacking, they are still commendable."
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan felt a little proud: Your father Lu fought with a bear when he was in level 2, and walked tens of thousands of kilometers alone when he was in level 3. Why did you starve to death for a month? It's really worse than the previous generation! Secretary Hai Luo smiled and said, "But the effect of outdoor education is indeed good. Now life is getting richer and people don't have to worry about food and drink. It is also a fact that the new generation of children has become comfortable."
"Be prepared for danger in times of peace. It's not a bad thing to have a little survival crisis."
Human 18 civilizations are still different from normal Earth civilization.
If in the civilized world on Earth, the government threw children into the wilderness and left them to survive for a month, the children's parents would riot!
However, in the 18th human civilization, it is not difficult to implement this educational policy.
"Captain Lu, when do we start?" The soldier captain Shakaner interrupted their conversation through the headset.
All the soldiers are hiding in the sky fortress!
Lu Yuan said: "Don't worry, wait until the rain stops."
"Look, this is the final fate of civilizations that did not abolish the safe zone. But if the safe zone is abolished, we will be like us, and we will never be able to live in peace..."
Shakaner also sighed. He might have recalled the Shali tribe from long ago...
On the contrary, the new generation has no experience of death, so naturally they don’t have any understanding of it. They are just happily picking up trash here.
Perhaps this is how the so-called generation gap arises.
…
After the rain, the sky cleared up, a crack appeared in the thick black clouds, and the sun shone through.
Lu Yuan did not waste any time and first brought a team of people to the corn tree where the mother bear was.
It was unexpected, yet reasonable. So many years had passed, and the mother bear... was still in her cave.
It gave birth to two new cubs. When it saw the person in front of it, its bear face instantly went crazy - Who are you? Don’t you know that this is my territory!
"roar!"
It roared fiercely. Its tall stature looked down from above, and its thick bear paws slashed towards Lu Yuan like a storm!
Lu Yuan flashed slightly.
He is now a level six life form with a shape attribute of over thirty points. He simply crushed the mother bear and knocked her to the ground.
Then he grabbed the two little bears and stroked their fur.
"You haven't seen me for so many years, don't you remember your master?" Lu Yuan said bluntly.
"roar?!!"
The mother bear knew that she was no match for the man in front of her, and felt that this scene was familiar, so she fled to the cave entrance and intended to abandon her cub and escape.
But there was actually a large group of people outside the cave, which made it panic.
One of the soldiers launched a capture net, which entangled it with a "whoosh".
“Got it!”
The two little bears were suppressed by the superior creatures. They trembled in fear and dared not even howl.
【Pangu Grizzly】
[Shape: 20.2]
【Air: 11.2】
[God: 1.4]
[Ability: Supernatural power, greatly increase strength in a short period of time. ]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
[Extraordinary Level: Level 2]
Wow, this mother bear has upgraded! !
It was a level 1 creature 30 years ago, but now it is a level 2 creature.
This also proves that the extraordinary life on Pangu Continent is indeed slowly becoming stronger.
And their lifespan is quite long.
Still full of energy after all these years.
Or find a suitable ability and assign it to Old Wolf? "Captain Lu, this corn tree is so beautiful, it is more than one level better than the wild ones."
"The productivity is not bad. The corn produced every year may be 0.2-0.3 Lingyun." A researcher with "plant affinity" ran over with an extremely excited look on his face.
"According to preliminary estimates, this tree is worth 50 spiritual charms!"
This is normal. Most of the extraordinary plants near the ruins are milestone rewards of "Gods". Moreover, they span an era, so aren't they more valuable than wild ones? "This bear is not very valuable... Only its hair is somewhat useful."
"With two coats a year and some blood drawn, it would be the best if you can get 0.01 spiritual energy."
The mother bear was furious when she was criticized like this: "Roar!"
Conch stroked the mother bear and said, "Don't move, mother bear. I won't eat your flesh."
But under the gentle sound of the conch, it inexplicably became quiet.
"Animal Affinity", a very interesting divine skill, specifically used to deal with wild animals.
"This female bear was once my subordinate. Don't make things difficult for her... Let her stay in the cave for now."
"These little bears are almost grown up. When the time comes, they will leave the den. We can just take the mother bear and the corn tree back with us."
"Roar!" The mother bear tried to roar, but Lu Yuan patted her on the head and she immediately became obedient.
Everyone laughed.
"Captain Lu is quite nostalgic!"
Soon after, people found the nests of scorpions, king cobras, and poisonous queen bees.
These extraordinary creatures have become more powerful over the years.
They are level 3, level 3, and level 4 respectively!!
Especially the beehives - according to the assessment, there are more than 15,000 bees of all sizes, and their combined value exceeds 250 Lingyun!
They can produce more than 2 Lingyun of honey and royal jelly every year.
Quite impressive numbers.
Shakaner cupped his hands excitedly and said, "This is a great place. But how to catch them is a big problem!"
"Some animals, if frightened, will stop laying eggs, or simply become frightened and stressed."
"It's not a problem for our soldiers to capture them, but if we want them to obey us, we still need to spend some time to make them obey us..."
Lu Yuan said: "Use [Spiritual Words], the conch will hypnotize them."
"Pack up the bees and their nests and take them away. Leave some of the king snakes and scorpions and just catch the biggest ones. There are too many small ones and they are not worth much, so... let's just leave some of them."
The Shumiba civilization does not like to collect living things, but they still collect snake skins and insect skins.
And because of some subtle psychological reasons, Lu Yuan didn't want to take away all of them.
Maybe... God is merciful?
It is also possible that this is his last time returning to the ruins of the Meda civilization.
After leaving this time, I will never return to the so-called "second hometown"...
Hai Luo smiled and said, "I see, Captain Lu is nostalgic and doesn't want to kill everyone!"
Lu Yuan frowned: "Ma'am, you are right, but please don't be so blunt... This is my second home after all."
People laughed again, and the forest was filled with a happy atmosphere and the joy of harvest.
…
Shakaner thought of something else: "Since Ms. Conch is willing to help, there should be no problem in fighting."
"In addition, these wild species need a relatively large area for activities. It seems a bit difficult for our Sky City to keep them well."
"Bees like those have a large activity radius and are quite aggressive. If they sting someone, they can kill them with the poison."
"Scorpions and snakes also need relatively large nests. They need relatively large caves to live comfortably."
Yes, the Castle in the Sky is not big enough.
There is no problem with living in it. The Sky City has three floors in total and covers an area of nearly 150 square kilometers, which is quite spacious to accommodate 120,000 people.
But if these wild animals are raised and locked in cages, their productivity will obviously not be as good as in the wild - this is why the Shumiba civilization sells extraordinary animals and plants at a discount.
If you don't take good care of it, it will only depreciate.
"It seems like we really have to move a mountain." Lu Yuan sighed softly.
Of course, moving mountains and the like are things we need to consider later. Now we have to catch these guys first.
Everyone acted quickly, using the conch's [Spiritual Words] technique to stun these guys mentally, then transported them to the inside of the "Sky Fortress" and paralyzed them with hypnotic gas.
This speed is no different from catching a group of chickens.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The social creatures that used to need to be avoided could now be captured alive with just a wave of the hand. This was truly the power of civilization...
As for the carnivorous plant, it was more troublesome. It was very huge, three hundred meters tall and more than fifteen meters in diameter. Ling Yan's hypnotic ability had little effect on it.
Fortunately, this time, Lu Yuan brought the Tree of Life.
In order to conceal his identity, the Tree of Life was transported via the "Sky Fortress". (Everyone had always believed that the Tree of Life was Lu Yuan's pet.) After riding on the tree, Lu Yuan walked slowly towards the Piranha Plant.
