Chapter 461 Ten thousand years is too long, we must seize the day
Lu Yuan suddenly heard a snoring sound and found that the little mirage dragon was taking a nap in the shade of a tree, staring at them with a pair of sleepy eyes blinking.
Over the years, it has become stronger. Its body diameter is already 1 meter and its length is over 10 meters. It has strong muscles and looks like a golden train. It weighs several tons.
As a guardian of civilization (mascot), it has also accompanied the growth of hundreds of thousands of children.
"Roar!" When the little mirage dragon saw the two of them running over to show their affection again, he turned his head away impatiently. Can you please not disturb the dragon's sleep... I was working on some experiment all night last night and had my blood drawn. You two, get out of here!
Lu Yuan looked around for a while and said, "Just now I wanted to take my sister flying, and a mount came."
"Roar!" The little mirage dragon was angry and frost spewed out of its mouth.
Lu Yuan's whole body immediately burst into red light, blocking the layer of ice.
"I really need to find you a female dragon..."
"Roar!" The adolescent dragon was very agitated, but also slightly moved, so his attitude became gentler.
"If all else fails, just clone one..."
Long was immediately furious. You want me to mate with myself? Don't think I don't understand "clone". I have attended compulsory education.
Lu Yuan and Hai Luo couldn't help but laugh.
"I almost forgot that you are a top student dragon!" Lu Yuan quickly took out the purple sticky thing to comfort it, and then was eager to ride on it.
In the end, this guy couldn't resist the temptation of the purple thing. He shook his body hypocritically, trying to push Lu Yuan away.
But as he was eating, he couldn't stop. He was shaking all over and eating voraciously.
Lu Yuan quickly called the girl and rode on it fiercely.
"roar!"
"I'm picking up girls! You can't lose face for me in front of girls." Lu Yuan patted the little Mirage Dragon who had a purple mouth and a happy face.
"Da Jin" originally wanted to doze off after eating, but for the sake of the food, he had to endure it and started to fly in the clouds obediently.
Looking down from the highest point, you can have a panoramic view of the entire city.
52 years have passed, and the green city has changed a lot!
The current Sky City, after a long period of expansion, still has three floors: upper, middle and lower.
But the area of the lowest layer has expanded to 200 square kilometers. It is the agricultural area, military area, experimental area, green mountain, coral island, quantum civilization UFO and high-risk laboratory. In case of any problems, the lowest layer can be abandoned directly.
The middle layer is 150 square kilometers and is a residential and industrial area. There are huge elevators connecting the upper, middle and lower floors, allowing people to travel easily.
The top layer is 100 square kilometers, and the overall shape is a trapezoid, with a total area of 450 square kilometers!
That is to say, the area of green schools occupies 8.89%, which is actually a reasonable proportion and still healthy.
The top layer is the light area, which can enjoy the sun all day long, has the best environment and the highest safety. Various rare plants, most of the green school, and some parks and squares are placed here.
A large number of rail trains come and go, and the current total track length is as high as 2,600 kilometers, which is actually quite a lot for such a small city.
A bright silver solar panel covers most of the roof area.
Well, it’s not the traditional materialistic route, but it brings some glyphs that specialize in collecting thermal energy - there’s no way, there are many glyph practitioners in the human race now.
In addition, the emergence of idealistic energy storage technology is equivalent to using carvings to reproduce the lithium batteries of the past, providing sufficient energy for various public facilities in Green City.
The green vines act as elevators, and pedestrians come and go.
The mix and match created an ordinary scene in the Green City, which was indeed a bit closer to the former green civilization.
The only difference is that there are also flying Zerg navigation tools that serve as taxis in the city.
These insects are called "flying snakes". They have a carrying capacity of 100 kg and a flying speed of 200 kilometers per hour. They are excellent means of transportation. With just 1 contribution point, you can hire a flying snake for a whole day.
The Zerg army lives a comfortable life just by selling labor.
"How much money does our family have?" Lu Yuan suddenly asked.
"The Zerg Army?" Because there was a little mirage dragon present, Hai Luo used telepathy, "Most of the consumables produced by the Zerg are used to support humans, or they eat them themselves. But there is a little surplus every year. After so many years, there are probably two thousand spiritual charms accumulated."
"Oh, that's not bad!" Lu Yuan was very satisfied. The Zerg are the bodyguards of Conch, and their current stable growth is not bad.
After 52 years, Leviathan has become a true ninth-level life!
Seeing the little mirage dragon flying by, he raised his claws and shouted "Bilibili".
Mammoth has reached level eight and is slightly smaller in size.
The three king insects are level ten life forms and are 2.5 meters tall.
But maybe because they are still young, they haven't created their own space yet. Yes, they are almost 200 years old, which is still a young age for a king insect. For this kind of advanced insect race, it is no problem to live to the next era.
From this perspective, the Zerg's racial value is indeed higher than that of humans.
After all, they are part of the vision, not traditional life.
"King! Queen!"
Three king insects flapped their wings and flew over, their speed surpassing the speed of sound, like small bombers. The little mirage dragon couldn't fly over them at all.
"It's nothing, go and have fun by yourselves." Lu Yuan waved at them.
At this moment, the communicator in his pocket suddenly rang. Lu Yuan did not dare to neglect it and quickly answered it. A call came from the secretary's office, "Commander Lu, the people from the Underground Alliance have arrived."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Lu Yuan patted the little mirage dragon below.
It was moving very fast and soon floated to the "communication area".
Many government officials are receiving allies of the underground alliance. More than 5,000 people came to this gathering, including scientists, engineers, soldiers, and everything else.
It’s really a grand event for communication!
There is actually a small city near Green City, covering an area of about 40 square kilometers, with two floors, a total of 80 square kilometers.
This was the original promise made by humans, that they would use their redundant productivity to give a small city to the Underground Alliance.
Now, this small city has been completely formed, and even the "solid" carvings on the walls have been engraved for them.
Of course, humans did not provide furniture, water, electricity and other internal structures, so it can be considered a large unfinished house.
This large group of guests is here to take over this small city.
This inspection took another half a day. Every corner was checked and no problems were found. The Underground Alliance finally felt relieved.
"We will always remember the friendship of your civilization. May our friendship transcend time and space and last forever!" The chief chairman of the underground alliance was replaced by the chief elder of the Slant-Eyed Clan.
The big-headed guy said excitedly: "This city fully meets the standards set at the beginning. The subsequent expansion work will be left to us..."
"When will your civilization set off?"
Lu Yuan said: "After discussion, we decided to do it on the 30th of next month..."
"Are you in such a hurry? In fact, you can stay for another fifty years, waiting for the next insect swarm, and then you can have another big harvest." The elder of the Slant-Eyed Clan made a warm invitation.
That’s right, just last year, there was a large-scale fight in the Zerg Nest, and a large number of Rift Zerg died!
As the Zerg decreased in number, the Greedy Demon began to plunder on a large scale again.
The income this time was not as good as the first wave, because the growth rate of legendary and excellent mushrooms was very slow, and 50 years was not enough, but he still got nearly 10,000 spiritual charms! In this way, the spiritual charms in his hands have accumulated to 23,000, a considerable number.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In addition, Lu Yuan still has 30,000 Lingyun in stock, adding up to 53,000. This value is indeed quite exaggerated! However, the amount of "luck" has not increased significantly, because the last rescue of Yunhai City consumed a full 5 points of "luck". If you want to make up for it, you have to wait for more than 20 years! "Luck" is really the most precious energy.
Humans and the underground alliance also reaped rich rewards from the mushroom picking strategy.
In other words, if you stay in this rift, you will have a big harvest every 50-100 years. It is really rich beyond imagination! But Lu Yuan shook his head firmly and rejected the other party's proposal: "It's really good here, but it's still too comfortable..."
"This is my intuition. Don't be greedy for these few resources. You still have to witness the bigger world."
He looked towards the distant horizon and said, "Once you stop, it will be very difficult to get back on track. It's like a marathon. Once you stop, you can no longer run."
The slanted-eyed elder said, "Your civilization is already a level three civilization, right? Your various technologies are much stronger than our alliance, and the proportion of divine skills is also very high..."
"Level 3 civilization is far from enough." Lu Yuan sighed, "We must have a long-term vision. Levels like the Gear Civilization have disappeared."
"Can we really survive the epochal disaster by guarding this cash cow? How long should we guard it? We might as well set off immediately."
Everyone in the Underground Alliance was suddenly speechless, and then they all sighed.
The total output of the rift is about 10,000 spiritual charms every 50 years, which is quite stable.
The ten thousand that the Greedy Demon robbed by his own ability were actually those from the deep layer. Humans and the underground alliance only collected from the shallow layer, and the two did not interfere with each other.
In fact, the Rift Zerg themselves consume more than 90% of the mushrooms. Humans and the Underground Alliance only steal some leftovers after the insect plague. It is absolutely a fantasy to actually go to war with the Zerg!
If 10,000 spiritual charms are spread over 50 years, the extra income per year is only 200 spiritual charms...
For a level two civilization, two hundred a year is definitely a very comfortable life, but for a level three civilization it is relatively tasteless, as the current productivity of mankind has already exceeded this number.
So this cash cow is indeed comfortable, but there is no need to stay here just for two hundred spiritual rhymes every year.
What's more, if you stay in one place for too long, comfortable thoughts will slowly occupy your mind. This is human nature.
Especially the decline of the "Heavenly Mythology" and the unsolved mystery of the destruction of the era have really brought our understanding of the cruelty of disasters to a new chapter - the pace of progress must never stop!
Lu Yuan smiled and explained: "You don't have to look down on us humans. Everyone likes to live a comfortable life."
"But our previous generations actually experienced hardships and had sufficient fighting spirit. But what about the next generation of children... They are indeed excellent, but they have not clearly felt the cruelty and malice of the world, and are actually a little naive."
"Especially, after spending so much time with you, they really think that the world is a happy place and everyone can live in harmony."
"The more powerful a civilization is, the more cautious we must be. We cannot relax for even a moment."
The slanting elder also smiled bitterly: "Yes, the previous generations of your civilization were indeed excellent and full of vitality."
Lu Yuan quickly said: "No, no, no, your alliance is actually excellent. They can survive the war and definitely have the will to fight."
"It's just that we need to explain things to them clearly... so that they can take a long-term view."
The two sides exchanged some business compliments.
The Underground Alliance should indeed be grateful to humans, as they have gained so much knowledge in exchange for a small cave.
As long as they can build up this small city, they can be considered a genuine second-level civilization.
But when will the Underground Alliance be able to move forward? Elder Squint Eyes doesn’t know.
The Tauren don’t know, and neither does the Dark Steel civilization.
Who would be willing to give up the extra income of two hundred Lingyun per year? This has formed an industrial chain, involving the livelihood of millions of canal workers.
If we give up, what will happen to these people’s jobs?
There are many times when internal problems are more difficult to solve than external problems.
The guests of the Underground Alliance were all silent, thinking about this question.
In the following banquet, there was toasting, singing and dancing.
The elf girls of the Dark Steel Civilization are indeed beautiful, and their graceful tap dance is full of artistic style.
"I finally understand why those guys want to clone Green Girl...a bunch of perverts." Lu Yuan thought secretly in his heart.
The Tauren chieftain was still boasting: "We will set off too! We will definitely set off and will not stay here for long!"
"My human brothers, we will definitely meet again in the next ten thousand years. We minotaurs will surprise you!"
"Ten thousand years is too long, we must seize the day." The ratman craftsman, Rat Gongye, also drank until his eyes were blurred.
The cow even invited someone to a duel on the spot.
However, the underground alliance has not yet researched the field, so they can only be stuck at the fifth level of the extraordinary level for the time being.
A cow and a human lieutenant colonel started sparring with each other. The sound of "pa pa pa pa" was very lively.
Before he knew it, Lu Yuan was a little drunk and a little sad.
The saying “There is no peace in the world and no friendship between civilizations” - go to hell with it!
When will we have the next opportunity to drink and chat happily? (End of this chapter)
