Chapter 713 Past Suffering, Today’s Wealth
Seeing their suspicious eyes, Lu Yuan sighed inwardly. He couldn't tell him the real reason directly: the Human Alliance was still too weak. It had not yet formed an organic whole and was still just an alliance.
This is a short-lived era, and no one knows when the disaster will come.
Even if you are lucky and have some small trump cards, it is already a remarkable thing to eventually develop into a level 4 civilization.
As for the fifth-level civilization... it's not that there is no hope, but it's quite slim...
Of course, Li Jun, Mok Hochul and others did not know this information.
The Human Alliance still has some ambitions and wants to make a career in Pangu Continent. Whether it is the top government officials or the people at the bottom, they all have a sense of self-improvement on an inner level and feel that humans should not be inferior to others!
This is a good thing, but also a bad thing...
After a long while, Li Jun finally spoke: "Mr. Lu, our political system needs to be responsible to the general public. The current social trend is progress, development, and competition, and the military also advocates honor."
"Even if a few of us decide, if a large group of people below oppose it, this matter will not be able to move forward."
"The North may really be safer than here, but if there is no greater benefit than the third-level civilization ruins, it will be difficult to get the people to agree to this..."
What he meant was simple: ordinary citizens of the Human Alliance were very resistant to being manipulated by other civilizations.
This is like the big and small countries on the earth. Citizens of small countries are willing to rely on other countries for economic benefits, but citizens of big countries, even if life is tight, still want to maintain independence.
Lu Yuan smiled slightly: "There is no rush for this matter. You can continue to stay here for decades, and we will slowly expand exchanges, strengthen circulation among the people, and expand publicity."
"Once everyone has a better understanding of the North, we can decide this matter logically."
"Besides, the North is not a stagnant place. There is fierce competition and a prosperous trade market. If you have a chance, you can go there and take a look."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
There is still time, so there is no need to rush.
…
…
Just like that, Lu Yuan continued to take these senior officials to visit the Green Knight. Everyone temporarily shelved Lu Yuan’s proposal - after all, it would be a good idea to get to know this powerful compatriot first!
"This is... a bullet made of mithril. The cost seems very exaggerated."
“It should have a unique purpose.”
Li Jun pointed to a tiny bullet in the glass window, which was about the size of a peanut.
Others also gathered around. Mithril, a rare material, was actually processed into bullets. It was scary to tell others about it.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "It's called [Distortion Bullet], and it contains idealistic rules related to distortion. As long as it hits the target, most shields can be easily corroded, including those of legendary and epic levels."
"Even the light curtain shield may be corroded."
"That's really... an excellent weapon." The human officers felt a chill in their hearts. Damn, the legendary shield that they had worked so hard to forge was contaminated by a cannonball. How much hatred would that cause?"
Some people are still wondering, how is the [Distortion Bullet] made? It must be extraordinary to be able to contaminate high-level idealistic equipment.
As if he had seen through their thoughts, Lu Yuan did not hide it: "The power of the rules of this distortion bomb comes from an anomaly [distortion ghost]... This thing is a long story. At that time, we were still a level 2 civilization."
Everyone was stunned and pricked up their ears.
The second-level civilization encountered a ghost-level anomaly. How did they survive?
Later, I heard that the remains of the [Deformed Ghost] were trapped in a container made by an advanced civilization, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yuan was good at speaking and described his past experiences vividly: "Past sufferings, today's wealth."
"This thing is very valuable. If other civilizations want to buy it, they need to trade it with civilization points. We don't want to sell ordinary spiritual charm yet!"
Describing the past in front of the elders and fellow villagers, even those memories that had long been covered up seemed to become clear again.
"There is also a more powerful weapon, the [Blood Vampire Bullet]. That thing is too powerful, so we didn't bring it with us."
[Blood Vampire]? There's another one?
"How powerful is it?" Li Jun asked curiously.
Then he felt that this question was a bit presumptuous. How could one casually ask about the highest-level weapons of other civilizations? Even if they were compatriots, they should have some privacy.
So he quickly said, "I'm just asking casually, it's okay if you don't reveal it."
Lu Yuan laughed and said, "Selling this kind of weapon to other civilizations is not considered a high-level secret."
"It's just that its power is hard to describe. [Blood Vampire Bullet] is not as good at contamination as [Distortion Bullet], but it has a unique killing ability against life." Lu Yuan thought for a moment, "For example, if it is an enemy of the level of [Demon·Frost Mist], a round of [Distortion Bullet] will break its ice shield first."
"Indeed... [Frost Mist] has shielding capabilities." Li Jun nodded.
"Then, another round of [Vampire Bullet] salvos will basically paralyze it if it doesn't die. The speed of this electromagnetic cannon reaches sub-light speed, and it is difficult for it to escape."
Lu Yuan waved his hand: "We even have to think about how to capture that guy alive. A living [Monster] is much more valuable than a dead one, so we can't use too many bullets."
"As for the story behind it, that's a long story..."
People looked strange and couldn't say a word for a long time.
They lost nearly 100 million people, and the [Demon·Frost Mist] they killed felt like a big fat pig...it was killed in just a few shots?
Even though Lu Yuan was just speaking casually, there was an inexplicable sense of conviction in his words, as if they had really killed a similar monster before...
"No, they have certainly fought similar opponents."
Li Jun scratched his head. He was already imagining the complicated expressions of the comrades in the Politburo after hearing the relevant reports.
"...Comrades, Lu Yuan, who was once stranded outside, has indeed built a civilization by himself!"
"I believe that Green City's combat power is 100 million times ours and can easily destroy all of us..."
Okay, one hundred million times might be a bit of an exaggeration, but if a real fight breaks out it will be one-sided.
"We, the civilization from Earth, have fallen far behind and cannot keep up with the times. He invited us to the North... Only in the North can we avoid the disaster of the era."
Thinking of this, I felt better for some reason. After all, I am not the highest commander. As long as I am not embarrassed, you will be the ones who are embarrassed!
Next, seeing that Lu Yuan really answered all the questions, everyone gradually relaxed and started to ask questions actively.
Lu Yuan picked out some key information and briefly explained it, such as the "Northern Alliance", "Buzhou Alliance" and "Iron Key Alliance", which are considered to be the more powerful civilizations in the entire Pangu Continent.
"Perhaps there are more powerful civilizations hiding in the dark, but no matter what, the development speed of a civilization community must be faster than that of a single civilization."
"So the Northern Alliance you mentioned..."
"Yes... We in Green City have a lot of say in the Northern Alliance, so you can consider it. But in the Buzhou Alliance, our say is relatively small... The Buzhou Alliance is relatively closed and does not welcome outsiders to join."
Li Jun opened his mouth, but in the end, nothing came out.
He understood.
Lu Yuan is Lu Yuan, and Green City is Green City.
Lu Yuan himself has a strong sense of kinship with his hometown, but how much support Green City is willing to give is a question.
The responsibilities that a person can bear are limited, and his greatest contribution to human civilization is to let them go to the north and be self-reliant.
Everything is no longer the same as before.
"Sir Lu Yuan, what is this?" While walking in the corridor, an expert suddenly pointed to a circular device embedded in the wall and asked.
This thing is like a crystal ball, emitting a soft light that makes people feel inexplicably comfortable.
"Oh, that's a mind detection device." Lu Yuan said with a smile, "Some life forms have strong latent abilities and can use space abilities to directly jump into the spacecraft. Some life forms can also turn themselves into air-like substances. There are even creatures as big as mosquitoes."
"In order to prevent the invasion of these enemies, we developed the mind detector."
"Its sensitivity has been improved over generations, and it can now penetrate most power armor. Let's put it this way, it can see through S-level idealistic resistance."
"This is really good stuff!" The experts immediately understood and their hair stood on end.
No wonder they didn't go through any security checks when they entered the Green Knight.
At first they thought that Green City was so skilled and daring that they allowed them to enter the spacecraft without going through the safety procedures. Deep down in their hearts they couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks, "A powerful civilization could neglect even this little thing."
I didn't expect that I was the one running around naked, and I had been seen through long ago!
"Oh, by the way, there is a very interesting improved version of the mind detector. Please follow me over here."
Lu Yuan took them to a large machine with great interest. This spherical instrument was 5 meters high and rotated slowly like a football.
"This thing is called the Green Elf Combat Power Detector. It is combined with the most advanced AI intelligent system. As long as you display specific performance in front of it, it will evaluate the specific combat power and threat level."
“Can machines also judge?”
"Of course it can. Its scanning function has a certain degree of penetration, and it can even detect souls and bloodlines. It can be regarded as the highest wisdom of our Green City." Lu Yuan made a few gestures. "It has many uses. For example, if a large number of missiles fly over, it can immediately detect which one has a nuclear warhead and which one is just a blank."
"Also, when we were traveling, we scanned along the way and were able to scan some animals that might have some ancient bloodline and strong vitality. As you know, extraordinary life on the Pangaea Continent is very rare and has low reproductive capacity."
"If we capture these animals and carefully cultivate them, they will have a greater chance of becoming extraordinary life forms."
The experts and soldiers of the Human Alliance were surprised when they heard this. They didn't know what "ancient bloodline" was, but they deeply understood the great value of this scan.
"Let me try first."
Li Jun sighed softly, walked forward, his whole body glowing red, pushing the light of the extraordinary fire to the limit.
[Human ethnicity, bloodline type A3392 component, 0.012%, B821* component 0.092%...]
[Extraordinary abilities: dynamic vision, extraordinary fire...]
[Extraordinary level, level 6, threat level 1072]
The machine spit out a lot of data. The mess in front were all parameters, and even the specific superpowers were detected.
Moreover, the data is generated very quickly, and the list appears on the screen in almost the blink of an eye.
"The threat level... is equivalent to combat power." Lu Yuan explained, "If it's more than a thousand... well, it's the average level of humans among level six masters."
"What is the highest a human can reach?"
"I estimate, about two or three thousand."
Li Jun laughed out loud: "It's really embarrassing. When I was just exploring my superpowers, my combination of skills was not very reasonable. I don't even have a divine skill, I just practiced faster."
Lu Yuan said: "The importance of individual combat capabilities is becoming less and less important, General Li does not need to force it."
The soldiers of the Human Alliance were very curious and activated their superpowers and took some measurements in front of the instruments.
"Threat Level 1011..."
"Threat Level 1043..."
The military values the use of force, especially soldiers from different cities, who are always compared.
The highest one actually reached 1453, and possessed a divine skill called "Lightning Control"!
A blond man laughed and said, "Old Yu, you really lost to me in our last martial arts competition. It seems that this machine is very accurate."
"Heh, didn't you lose to me sometimes?"
The winning soldier was very excited and kept praising the machine for its "vision", while the loser could only stare blankly and wanted to complain but had to hold it back.
But in general, this machine is indeed accurate and magical. It can measure everyone's fighting power with just a scan of light. If this is the case, there will be no need for gambling in the future. All you need to do is perform in front of the machine and it will be over? !
They even discovered that the combat effectiveness of power armor could be evaluated.
After a level six expert puts on power armor, the threat level can be increased to 2000-2200... I don't know how this is judged.
"I don't know either. It may be a combination of big data-related considerations." Lu Yuan thought to himself. There are too many civilizations in the Ruins of Buzhou, and the styles of power armor are also varied. With this big data, many tasks will naturally become more convenient.
Soon, the power armors of Newyue City and Yunhai City were compared in front of this instrument!
Yunhai City's armor... is 5 points higher?!
New York City Mayor Mok Hochul's face darkened. He lost his temper and began to pace back and forth. He caught the driver and whispered, "Can't you try your best to improve your score?"
"Sir, I'll try my best!" The soldier was sweating profusely.
Those present were senior military officers from various cities, and they all had some say after returning to their own cities.
Don’t underestimate these five points; perhaps these five points mean the outcome of the competition between the two sides!
Another large group of experts surrounded Lu Yuan, constantly asking various questions: "What is the so-called ancient bloodline?", "Does it involve the core mechanism of extraordinary abilities?", "How is the threat level judged?", "The specific working principle of this machine?", etc.
Lu Yuan was not a professional, so he was stumped by all the questions.
And even if he knew, he couldn't reveal all the secrets at once.
He could only reply ambiguously: "Don't worry, everyone. I only know that if the threat level difference is within 10%, there will be some back and forth, but if the difference is more than 30%, it will basically be one-sided! So the current results are actually inaccurate. The driver's physiological state and emotional index are all within the error range."
Mok Hochul finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But no matter what, the various instruments currently displayed by the Green Knight are nothing short of magic!
Everything is challenging their cognition!
Just then, a voice sounded in my ears.
"The Queen has prepared a sumptuous afternoon tea and invites the guests to the banquet hall." King Insect Lu Da walked over and bowed.
It is tall, like a golden giant, exuding a vague majesty.
There are also some craftsmen and scientists from Green City around the King Insect. Everyone has been looking forward to the so-called hometown Earth for a long time, and is waiting to pursue the inspiration of the craftsmen!
"Hello, I'm Lu Tiantian, the chief scientist of Green City."
"Hello, Professor."
Lu Tiantian smiled and said, "This detection machine is actually not as magical as imagined. Its core structure is a biological eyeball, which was taken from a powerful creature. After a long period of improvement, it was transformed into its current appearance."
This creature's eyeball must belong to some "ancient bloodline creature".
Even though the experts from the Human Alliance were curious, they did not ask further questions.
"Its specific idealistic principle is somewhat similar to the [Identification] ability. [Identification] is actually an ability that is worth exploring. It has quite a few variants, such as [Pioneer's Eye], [Treasure Hunting Eye], [Explorer's Eye], etc."
"Due to the uniqueness of the material, this instrument is difficult to mass-produce."
There is no need for an acquired myth, as long as one is a member of the "Linyuan Clan". The stronger the Linyuan Clan is, the more eyeballs they have.
The bodies that remain today can probably only produce a few thousand units.
Of course, Lu Yuan’s Qiankun world has the bloodline of the Linyuan clan. If he cultivates it deliberately, he may be able to raise the corresponding exotic beasts.
However, this explanation satisfied the experts of the Human Alliance. The white scientist, Professor Edward, suddenly realized: "I see... But we also need to explore the underlying mechanism of idealistic rules to create this thing, which is the so-called ancient bloodline... There is also some superficial research in this area in the current ruins..."
