Chapter 653: The Ancient Race Reappears
At this moment, Lu Yuan is communicating with the human mother civilization in his dreams.
It was still the colorful and brilliant dream of the phoenix tree. Dozens of people from Yunhai City came online all of a sudden. Most of them were familiar faces, but there were also a few new faces.
These unfamiliar faces seemed to be scientists who had moved from other cities.
When they saw Lu Yuan, they were all shocked.
Professor Edward from Newyue City couldn't help but mutter to himself: "No wonder... No wonder you are developing so much faster than us."
It turns out that Yunhai City is really holding onto a golden thigh! "Hey, how are you guys, has the recent development been going well?" Lu Yuan sat on a big rock.
Standing in front of him was Colonel Li Jun: "People are slowly getting rid of their pain. Time is always the best medicine. The relocation of the city is 30% complete. Yunhai City has absorbed a large population, and with the collision of multiple cultures, the public security environment has declined slightly. There is still room for improvement in the future."
"As for [Demon·Frost Mist], it is still under a long-term seal... We will not disturb it unless it is absolutely necessary."
"The ability to [control] is also sealed and is under the personal supervision of the military."
Lu Yuan sighed in his heart, the natural disaster [monster] is obviously a huge resource, but Yunhai City is still too weak, and forcible use of it may bring disaster.
His sister Lu Qingqing sat on the grass beside her, holding her head in her hands and listening to their conversation.
As time passes and the proportion is restored, the age gap between Lu Yuan and his relatives will no longer widen, which means that both parties will age synchronously.
Fortunately, people of this era generally have a longer life expectancy and always look like they are 20 years old.
As long as Lu Yuan can get back within two thousand years, he won't have to worry about his parents' birth, aging, sickness and death.
After chatting for a while, Lu Yuan took out a silver booklet and said solemnly: "We got this knowledge from a high-level relic through trade. You must work hard to digest the knowledge and don't be careless."
"In the early stages of research, you must keep it secret and don't let anyone know. Just use it secretly. If you encounter other civilizations, don't trade this knowledge with them..."
What Lu Yuan gave to the human mother civilization was naturally a relatively complete inheritance.
However, he would not take the initiative to say that this was knowledge he took the lead in compiling.
As for not allowing humans to be traded, it is naturally to protect the safety of human civilization.
What level is the Kamehameha civilization? Even when promoting "field industrialization", they are extremely cautious and try their best to abandon cause and effect.
Humans should just use this kind of small Karami secretly, and it is better not to promote it indiscriminately.
"Yes!" Li Jun saluted excitedly.
The group received their gifts and left the dream space happily.
Only younger sister Lu Qingqing stayed.
After so many years, my sister has grown up and has transformed from a young girl into a serious female college student.
When Lu Yuan thought that she would also grow old and die, he felt a little melancholy.
"When are you going to find a partner and have a baby? If you die of old age, I'll still have a relative when I come back."
Lu Qingqing immediately jumped up, her pretty face wrinkled slightly: "How many times have I told you that I am a DINK!"
"What a stupid idea... Reproduction of blood is the highest idealistic rule of life." Lu Yuan cursed speechlessly, "Do you know how many children your brother has raised? It's almost 10 million."
Maybe it was because he now had a strong aura of authority, or maybe it was because what he said was a little strange, but my sister was actually shocked for a moment.
She avoided the question and said hesitantly, "Well, there is actually no suitable candidate."
"Boys my age are always a little childish. I've been on a few blind dates recently, but they always lack a certain feeling. I'm only 27 years old now, so there's no need to rush, right?"
Lu Yuan felt happy in his heart, you finally tasted the pain I felt back then.
However, these days, with longer life expectancy, 27 years old is indeed too young, so there is no need to be too anxious.
"When can you come back? Or can you find a suitable boy for me?"
"Alas, it's too far! Unless we develop space technology, there is only a slight possibility..." Lu Yuan sometimes fantasizes about what will happen if Green City really returns? Unfortunately, the 18th civilization of mankind is already a real civilization, and it is difficult to merge with the first civilization of mankind. Fortunately, Pangu Continent is so big that everyone can live their own lives, which is not bad.
"How are mom and dad? Are they in good health?"
"They are a bit busy with work. There are so many immigrants recently! How should I put it... In the era of superpowers, there are many fights and the hospitals are overcrowded, especially the conflicts between immigrants and local residents... Fortunately, routine diseases have indeed decreased."
The two of them sat on the grass in the dreamland of the paulownia tree and chatted about some family matters.
Especially when encountering interesting things in life, my sister would laugh out loud.
"I've encountered a few more races recently. The Xiongba tribe can reach level 8 extraordinary life forms. Isn't that amazing? Humans can only reach level 6."
"The Mad Wolf Clan, their noses are really sensitive, they can actually smell the strength of the battle from the air."
"And then, what about the fight?"
"No, we won't gamble anymore..." Lu Yuan sighed. The spaceships of Green City are becoming more and more luxurious, with all kinds of advanced technologies installed. Things like lasers and electromagnetic guns are simply exaggerated.
Just the sight of that huge spaceship flying over there will stop people from fighting with you, and you’ll have fewer opportunities to show off.
Compared with Lu Yuan's rich experience, the development of human civilization seems to be proceeding step by step.
The integration of the people is not something that can be done overnight. Racism, discrimination and being discriminated against, worshipping foreigners and bullying foreigners...all kinds of conflicts emerge one after another.
Fortunately, the Human Alliance has planned a total of five administrative units, which can be regarded as a buffer zone.
In addition, the construction of the Sky City took fifty years. Fortunately, after experiencing a catastrophe, there was not much damage in this regard, and the construction of various universities, laboratories, and factories flourished.
"Does humanity still have the ambition to move toward the outside world? One hundred million people have died."
"Don't underestimate your hometown!" Lu Qingqing was a little sad when she talked about this, and clenched her fists. "It is precisely because 100 million people died that we must work harder and stronger!"
"More than 80% of the residents believe that they should go to a larger world, communicate with more civilizations, and find more relics!!"
"If we settle in one place, we will slowly fall behind until natural disasters and man-made disasters happen again. We can't be lucky every time. Only by being strong can we resist disasters."
Lu Yuan burst into laughter and couldn't help but challenge her: "Haha! I hope we can meet one day, and then we can have a fight. You know, the rule of Pangu Continent is to have a fight."
"I, Commander Lu, will personally go to the battlefield to fight you."
Lu Qingqing rolled her eyes: "Maybe we will be even more powerful than you by then!! We are a civilization with a complete industrial system, a much larger population than you, and a [Monster] as our foundation!"
"We will soon be able to develop into a Level 3 civilization."
Lu Yuan said: "We also have [Demon·Poplar Tree], your newly born [Demon] is nothing."
"Yours is incomplete, ours is complete!" Lu Qingqing was fooled and began to report her assets, "We also have twin sycamore trees... and an extraordinary peach tree... That big peach tree has grown very fast recently, probably because we left the safe zone."
"We still have endless oil, coal, and nuclear weapons!"
Lu Yuan laughed: "I think the most amazing thing about humans is actually your mouth, and you, a genius girl..."
"ah?!"
"Because the genius girl has an awesome brother who is a big shot for the humans. Otherwise, humans would just be ordinary cities without any first-mover advantage... How can they beat them?"
Lu Yuan was beaten and kicked by the "Holy King" and let out wailing sounds.
Although it was a dream, he still thought that being beaten felt great.
…
…
Just like this, the spark is spreading rapidly in the Pangu Continent, even though the scope of the spread of "Field Industrialization" is very small now and is limited to the initial stage.
But one day, it will become a wildfire! Wild grass, mulberry trees, flying birds, journeys, relics, and dead bones...
The Pangu Continent of the Ninth Era was evolving silently...
The number of civilizations leaving the safe zone continues to increase. Amidst exchanges, collisions, and wars, the Ninth Era enters its own stage of rapid development.
The improvement of the overall strength of many civilizations has brought some subtle benefits to the world will of Pangu Continent. The strengthening of the world will has brought convenience to some third-level and fourth-level technologies. This is a positive cycle.
However, on this day, an extremely strong thunderstorm occurred in the central area of Pangu Continent!
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
The world was shaking, and golden thunderstorms as thick as bowls struck the earth again and again.
Cracks actually appeared in the void!
At first, it was just a tiny crack, like ice flowers on a winter window, spreading silently. Then light seeped in through the cracks - it seemed to come from another dimension.
The cracks in space gradually expanded, and even made a sound like glass breaking.
The noises came one after another, becoming louder and louder, shaking the earth into pieces.
A strong earthquake occurred!
Turbid groundwater gushed out of the cracks, white smoke with a sulfur smell hissed out of the cracks, and rabbits and mice fled everywhere.
Suddenly, the entire void trembled violently, like a shattered mirror, and a huge mountain suddenly appeared on the Pangu Continent - this was not a mountain, but a real continent, with an area of more than 10 million square kilometers! The sound of the earth became louder and louder, the mountains and rivers rose and fell like waves, and the sound of the continental shelf bursting on the seabed came one after another. Spider-web-like cracks appeared in the ocean, and the calm water surface suddenly boiled. Countless silver fry jumped out of the water, drawing a short arc in the sun.
"Boom!" The land fell onto the ocean, creating countless splashes of water.
"My Linyuan clan returns to Pangu Continent today!"
On the top of the mountain, there stood a group of strange creatures with animal heads and human bodies, offering solemn prayers to the whole world.
The leader was about 12 meters tall, with two horns on his head and bat-like wings behind him. The blue-black finger bones on his arms were distinct, and each claw was engraved with dark red innate inscriptions.
In his hand, he was holding an extraordinary prop that looked like a compass.
【Mythology: Candle Dragon Sundial】
After the death of the innate myth "Zhulong", his body was found by the Linyuan clan and forged into extraordinary equipment.
Its spine is coiled to form a sundial, and its dragon head holds a pointer made of black ice. The sundial is engraved with twelve ancient characters for the lunar calendar, including "morning", "dawn", "morning", and "day". When the sundial is rotated, the dragon scales will ooze out red sand.
[Zhulonggui] can reduce a person's life span, and can even control the passage of time in the small world! Because of this, their Linyuan clan hid in the small world and survived for an extremely long time.
"This world has reached the end of its life, and those incompetent guys failed to resolve the disaster in the end."
"Fortunately, most of those who possessed infinite energy are already dead. There is no one in this world who can be our opponent anymore!"
The leader was named "Yuan Tie". He opened his rough palm and began to comprehend the world: "Listen carefully, everyone! This catastrophe cannot be recognized. Once recognized, you will never be able to break free. Therefore, we don't need to discuss what the catastrophe is."
"Since this world is going to die eventually, it might as well die in our hands... and become fuel for us to travel to a new world."
What he was referring to was, of course, blood sacrifice—blood sacrifice to the entire world! In ancient times, blood sacrifice was almost an omnipotent means, which could purify blood, increase lifespan, create artifacts, and even cure the mental disorder caused by the use of "Infinite Qi"! Leaving the world through blood sacrifice was naturally possible.
However, Yuan Tie felt a strange sense of stagnation in his heart, as if he was in the vast ocean, with water pressure from all directions hindering his movement.
The blood power of all of them was weakened by this strange rule.
At the same time, he felt waves of weakness.
Hiding in a small world for a long time will always cause some sequelae. This disease called "time loss" requires "blood sacrifice" to be quickly cured.
"Your Majesty, new rules have emerged in the world... rules we have never known before."
"It doesn't matter. More myths will surely be born in the future. But as long as we recover our strength, why should we be afraid of these new myths?"
"Have other ancient tribes appeared?"
"There should be some, but we haven't contacted them yet."
"Your Majesty, we found a village at the foot of the mountain. It was easy for us to transform the lives inside into blood food." A creature with an animal head, a human body and bat wings brought up a bronze goblet filled with red liquid with a little halo.
"The lives of this era are as weak as insects, which will be crushed if they are crushed."
Everyone burst into laughter.
They are the Linyuan clan, who possess powerful divination abilities and hid in a small world before the disaster struck.
Even the tempting "Infinite Qi" has never been used.
That terrible disaster wiped out many strong people and killed the most powerful race.
Now, there are only a group of weaklings and them left in the world. The strength of their bloodline alone is enough to make them proud - you are all slaves, and the world is in my hands! Yuan Tie drank the liquid in the cup, but he was not satisfied, and frowned slightly: "Why is the spirit in this blood wine so thin?"
"Has the power of this blood sacrifice become so weak in today's era? Or has the blood of the creatures in this world become so weak that it cannot support the blood sacrifice?"
"It's all possible." A gray-haired old man waved his fingers a few times, as if he was predicting something, "Your Majesty, there are no innate myths in this world anymore. The bloodline has been diluted for countless generations, and strong people are rare."
"However, it is a big world after all, and it will eventually breed extraordinary strong people. We only need to sacrifice the blood of these extraordinary strong people, and the spirits we obtain will be enough."
He took out a palm-sized bronze tripod from his arms, on which was carved an ancient giant beast called Taotie.
【Mythology: Taotie Ding】
This is a mythical item specially used for blood sacrifices, and it can be enlarged or reduced at will.
Even if a mythical phenomenon is as big as a mountain, if it is thrown into the cauldron, it will be transformed into the purest "spirit" within a day.
Whenever it finds traces of a strong man, the eyes of the Taotie Ding beast will glow green and measure the combat power of the strong man, which is divided into four levels: "Heaven, Earth, Profound and Yellow". The highest level "Heaven" level strong man represents the combat power of the innate myth, while the "Earth" level strong man represents the acquired myth that is forcibly promoted through blood sacrifice.
[Taotie Ding] sensed for a long time, but the beast's eyes didn't even light up.
The old man couldn't help but shake his head: "Too weak, too weak. These days, even yellow-level masters are extremely rare. We must expand the search range to gather the spiritual essence we need."
The Linyuan clan couldn't help but feel troubled. Countless years had passed, and Pangu Continent had become what it is today, with only a few big cats and small cats.
Moreover, the world is so big, even if they run back and forth and kill ants on the roadside, how much blood sacrifice energy can they collect? Maybe they can't even recover the cost! At this time, another old man with disheveled hair and animal horns on his head said grimly: "I observed the celestial phenomena and found that the rules related to blood sacrifice have been covered up."
"This rule is not obvious. The power of the blood sacrifice has been forcibly weakened. Therefore, the spiritual essence in the blood wine has become extremely thin."
At this moment, everyone's expressions became gloomy.
If there were few strong men and they could barely accept it, but the rules of the blood sacrifice were hidden, it would be like digging out their lifeblood!
Most of their extraordinary props, their own cultivation and combat effectiveness are based on the rules of blood sacrifice.
Now that the rules are not obvious, the combat effectiveness has dropped by more than one level.
“Is there a solution?”
"Yes, we can fight blood sacrifice with blood sacrifice. As long as we capture enough strong men to sacrifice to the heavens and dig out the rules of blood sacrifice again, we can restore our former heyday!"
But the problem arises again. They can't even find a "yellow" level expert. Where can they find "enough experts"? If they want to dig out the rules, they need at least a few "sky" level experts, right?
Yuan Tie, the leader of the Linyuan clan, thought for a moment and said coldly: "First investigate what happened in this world, and then contact more ancient races."
"We can't be the only ones born in this world. Those ancient tribes should also be thinking of a solution."
