Chapter 714: 170,000 combat power? !
Edward is actually a well-known old professor. When he was on Earth, he was already famous and had many disciples.
"I have a request."
"Please go ahead."
"This Zerg warrior should be considered one of the top ones. Can you show us his stats?" Professor Edward seemed a little restrained. "I'm just curious. I don't mean anything else. If you don't want to, that's fine."
For just a moment, the room was quiet.
Even the soldiers looked over here.
Their power armor has a threat value of over 2,000. How strong are these mighty-looking golden beetles?
This is indeed a big question.
Lu Tiantian was also a mean-spirited guy. He was stunned for a moment, then said honestly, "We haven't studied the data on the vision-level idealistic radiation clearly, so there will be a large deviation. In addition, these king insects are a very powerful category even among the vision [insects]."
"Mr. Lu, go and try it. Relax your mind and don't resist that gaze." Lu Yuan said.
"Yes, sir."
The Insect King Lu clenched his fists, and a crackling sound was heard. The golden shell actually swelled up like a muscle, and bone spurs grew out from the surface of the joints, making it look even more hideous.
The surface of the skin glows with golden light.
The numbers on the screen also began to rise sharply, and finally a line of information popped up: [Ancient Zerg King, bloodline type A1392, 18.012%, B221* component 11.092%...]
[Extraordinary abilities: blood devouring, extraordinary resistance...]
The threat level is fixed at the number "178213".
When the experts from the Human Alliance saw this number, their eyes widened and they swallowed.
They have actually made some psychological expectations, but they are basically in the units of "thousands" and "tens of thousands".
Tens of thousands is already amazing!
But now, it has suddenly become 170,000, which is ridiculously high!
They didn't doubt that the data was wrong. The Kingworm belonged to Green City and obviously came here often to conduct experiments. How could there be any mistakes? !
This exaggerated order of magnitude is already a qualitative change, just like punching a kindergarten, no matter how many power armors are there, it is not enough. Unless a hydrogen bomb attack or weapons of mass destruction are used, a king bug can massacre an entire city!
This complex mood lingers for a long time and never dissipates.
"Mr. Lu Yuan's suggestion really needs to be carefully considered."
"It might not be so bad if we head to the North... a civilization that stays behind closed doors is hard to catch up with."
Lu Yuan was also proud in his heart. Perhaps this was the feeling of returning home in glory...
"He went out alone and lived in a doghouse. After returning, he had become a local tyrant. With one order, an army of 300,000 came roaring towards him!" Some melodramatic scenes from online novels flashed through his mind.
What's more, this subtle emotion comes from the collective!
I am proud of the achievements made by the entire Green City.
…
Just like that, after several hours of visiting, the Human Alliance team returned in despair.
Even though what they saw was less than one-tenth of Green City’s development in the past six hundred years, it still caused a huge uproar!
The crowd quickly split into two factions.
"It's simply... ridiculous! A fifth-level civilization? Do you know how difficult it is to become a fifth-level civilization in just six hundred years? At this rate, fifth-level civilizations should have been rampant in previous eras."
Those older leaders who had not witnessed it with their own eyes could not imagine it at all.
People are always resistant to things they have not been exposed to, even the smartest people.
What's more, this matter touches upon the most core point, which is - "dignity".
Dignity is a very delicate thing. If you want to stand firm in Pangu Continent, you must have the spirit of striving for strength. If a civilization is like mud, even if it witnesses the rise and fall, it has no psychological reaction, then it is undoubtedly impossible to develop into a strong country. But sometimes, dignity is an obstacle to development. After all, it is very difficult to deny yourself.
"Ridiculous? Are you saying that we were all hypnotized and fooled? They came all the way here just to fool us, a Level 3 civilization?"
"Isn't it because of our brotherhood? Otherwise, we are just an ordinary civilization."
"But……"
"No, they said they are not a Level 5 civilization, but no matter what, they are a Level 4 civilization. We can't even dream of a Level 4 civilization."
In the large conference room of the Flying Fortress, there was a lot of lively discussion, with people of all kinds of white, yellow, and black skins arguing in one mess.
Li Chunhong suddenly patted the table twice and said, "Everyone, please listen to me first. Mr. Lu Yuan just told me that he wants to bring his relatives back to Green City, but they will retain their personal household registration in Yunhai City. This is a personal matter, and I have agreed."
As soon as these words were spoken, many people shut their mouths and started thinking rapidly in their minds.
Taking the people away meant that the bond connecting the two sides was taken away. From now on, Lu Yuan and the Human Alliance only had the friendship of their hometown.
But hometown friendship is a very illusory thing. If the hometown is thriving, it would be nice to add icing on the cake, but if the hometown is a mess, few people would be willing to spend energy to help it - not to mention that 90% of this hometown is concentrated in Yunhai City, and the so-called Human Alliance is just a by-product.
Li Chunhong said slowly: "We in Yunhai City are willing to follow Mr. Lu Yuan's advice and go to the North. We also have some information about the North, and we will distribute it to you when the time comes."
"If you don't want to... that's fine. Anyway, the sky is divided into cities, so it's easy to split them up..."
The conference room fell silent again.
Li Chunhong's meaning was very simple. Yunhai City had secured this golden thigh! Anyway, Lu Yuan had a good relationship with us, and his family's household registration was still preserved. He would not deliberately cheat us.
Whatever you want to do, it’s your choice!
Other cities have more or less some concerns. The gap in strength between the two sides is huge, which is equivalent to pinning their lives and property on the morality of others.
"Mr. Li, please don't say such discouraging words." The leader of Xini City said, "We are just a little worried. It's human nature."
"The strength displayed by Green City right now is like that of aliens... If aliens suddenly visited Earth and said they wanted to take us to another planet, most people would hesitate for a moment."
As soon as these words were spoken, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated a lot.
"What's more, even if we really want to go to the North, we have to do it slowly, otherwise the people will not accept it."
"The social level is not that fragile," said another economist. "When we first built the Sky City, our confidence reached its peak. We had a [Frost Mist] and a complete industrial chain. We integrated internal differences and the public sentiment was very strong."
This kind of belief that one is invincible when just starting out is a good thing to a certain extent. It allows one to be self-reliant, have enough food and clothing, and have a high level of subjective initiative.
But there is also a characteristic, that is, xenophobia is high - we humans are invincible in the world, and you are all a bunch of garbage buckets, isn't that highly xenophobic?
The expert continued, "But now, we have experienced many setbacks and know our own strength. We also lost the last bet and have the Haji civilization as an ally... To a certain extent, this is a good thing. It allows us to figure out our own strengths."
“Now there is a more powerful compatriot guiding the way forward… If it can be guided by public opinion, I think the people will be able to accept it.”
After a moment of silence, another expert said, "Friends from Yunhai City, don't be too anxious about this matter. We still don't know enough about Green City, and in the short term, we are still digging ruins and can't go to the north. So during this period of time, expand exchanges and send more people."
"This includes journalists, scholars, craftsmen, and even student representatives. I wonder if Yunhai City is willing to do so?"
"Um..." Li Chunhong hesitated for a while, and finally told the truth, "They have invited us, and even invited us to participate in the craftsman competition."
No one could hold it any longer.
Good old man, no wonder you defected so quickly? So you have already received the other party's promise and want to go solo?
…
The next morning, Lu Yuan had just finished breakfast when he received a notification from the Human Alliance.
"Dear friends, the Human Alliance sincerely invites you to visit our military city. There will be a shuttle bus to pick you up later."
"Then... it's better to obey than to be respectful!"
This battle fortress is quite excellent in terms of both weapon performance and power system.
The "Human Alliance" inherited its own traditional materialism and carried it forward.
Controlled nuclear fusion technology was invented independently 40 years ago - facts have proved that the "forever fifty years" of controlled nuclear fusion does not exist, it's just that not enough manpower and material resources have been invested.
A nuclear fusion device built using purely materialistic technology is quite remarkable.
"We have made some small progress over the years." Li Chunhong said with emotion, "With a population of 100 million, we can barely support the third-level civilization industry and build airplanes, cannons and hydrogen bombs. Almost 70% of the population are industrial, but it is still not enough."
"Fortunately, people's life expectancy has increased, and retirement is far away...Oxen and horses may live for hundreds or thousands of years, and working all the time without retiring is also a major social problem."
Lu Yuan knocked on the wall a few times. The outer layer was made of common black iron elements, and the inner layer was reinforced concrete. There should be some carving patterns. The third-level civilization actually looked like a real thing.
He smiled and said: "So we still need to promote the eight-hour work system and the talent exit system."
"People can work overtime when they need to, but eight hours is enough for a normal working day."
“But how should we formulate a mechanism for the exit of talents? It’s difficult!”
Li Chunhong shook his head. Who among leaders would want to retire? Especially when their life expectancy is several thousand years.
Lu Yuan said: "In my Green City, a god is almost retired at 20 o'clock and has to become a craftsman. The more craftsmen there are, the better. They are always scarce and have a high status."
"The only other way is to make the pie bigger. As long as there is always a pie to be divided, there will be class mobility. The development of civilization is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will fall behind."
In fact, this battle fortress can only be described as "okay" and is not amazing enough to amaze humans.
Next, the large army finally entered the major human city, Yunhai City!
Everyone was on a small floating spacecraft.
Yunhai City is completely different from before. The tall buildings of the past have long disappeared, replaced by a pyramid-shaped sky city with a total of three floors: upper, middle and lower. Its specific structure is actually somewhat similar to that of Green City.
As for Castle in the Sky, after watching it so many times, I always feel that it is all the same.
Reporters who rushed to the scene after hearing the news have already started taking pictures. This is big news, a big event!
Lu Yuan's name is written in textbooks. He is the founder of the "Supernormal Fire Seed Cultivation Method" and everyone will come into contact with it when practicing.
They were even given materials such as "Field Industrialization" and "Gear Collection" that would benefit them for the rest of their lives. Experts and scholars often heard of this name and muttered: "Among our human group, there are actually pioneers who left the safe zone from the beginning..."
As a result, this pioneer actually came back - it felt a bit like the unlucky guy who was kidnapped by aliens returning home in glory.
Countless reporters flocked to the scene, wanting priority interviews.
Lu Yuan was already familiar with such grand scenes and just smiled politely.
Instead, Li Chunhong took the microphone: "Hello, friends from the press. Before we start the formal interview, I have a few words to say."
"Mr. Lu Yuan left our Yunhai City six hundred years ago and lived alone in Pangu Continent."
“It’s not easy.”
"Let me ask you, right now, if I ask you to survive alone in the wilderness for a year, can you do it?"
“I believe most people can’t do it.”
"But Mr. Lu Yuan did it. He even provided us with a lot of intelligence at the beginning of the era. He has made great contributions to our development to the present stage. Let us give him a sincere welcome and welcome him home."
"Pa pa pa!" The audience suddenly burst into applause.
Li Chunhong paused and continued, "Six hundred years is hard for us to imagine. It's only been less than a hundred years since we left the safe zone."
"But if we follow the cycle law of dynasties, six hundred years is already two dynasties, which is equivalent to the Ming Dynasty. You can think about how many stories have happened from the Ming Dynasty to the information age?"
"I won't go into too much detail about Mr. Lu Yuan's experience. What I can say is that in these six hundred years, he has established a family, built a career, and even built a great civilization."
"It is truly an unimaginable feat for one person to create a civilization!"
"Wow!" This time it was the turn of the visitors from Green City to start applauding. Lu Tiantian, Lu Ying and others couldn't help but cheer!
They are proud of their dad!
As soon as this live broadcast was released, not only Yunhai City, but also the internal public opinion of several other human cities was in an uproar.
“The great master in the textbooks has really returned home!”
"He actually gave birth to a civilization. His wife is so amazing. I bow to her!"
These guys obviously misunderstood something. In addition to those who were making jokes, some were devoted to discussing academic issues, such as "If you have 100 children with your wife, it will grow exponentially, and you will have a civilization in just three generations."
“How do we solve the problem of inbreeding?”
"Inbreeding is not a big problem. Crested ibises and tigers in nature reserves are all products of inbreeding. As long as you are not afraid of premature death, you don't have to worry about this problem."
Some even asked: "How did he find a wife in Pangu Continent? I can't even find a wife in the city!"
Well, looking at the noisy crowd, Lu Yuan could guess what gossip they were thinking about, but he didn't intend to explain anything.
On the one hand, the children of Green City are indeed his juniors. Although your thinking is a little distorted, it is generally correct...
On the other hand, it is also to enable my hometown to better accept the eighteen civilizations of mankind.
"They are all your Lu Yuan's children?" Once this idea is planted deep in the mind, it will be easy to accept it on the psychological level. After all, we are all descendants of Yan and Huang.
From a cultural perspective, the Dadong Kingdom was not averse to marrying women of other races. There is an ancient story called "Su Wu Shepherding Sheep". Su Wu had a son with a Xiongnu woman in a foreign country. The Han Dynasty actually recognized this son and allowed him to come back to serve as an official.
From a genetic perspective, the Han nationality's paternal origin is relatively pure, while its maternal origin is relatively broad. The different genetic genes distributed in various regions also prove this point.
Soon, a reporter asked excitedly, "I'm a reporter from Yunhai Daily. May I ask how you found your wife? You were so lucky to find someone who could support you when you were alone and helpless in this vast continent!"
"Wow!" Instead, Lu Tiantian and others cheered even louder. This ancient event was an unsolved mystery even in Green City.
"This is my wife, her name is Hai Luo, she is an alien from the last era. Thank you all for your concern." Lu Yuan took the girl's hand and changed the subject.
Even though Hai Luo has experienced many ups and downs, it still feels a little shy to make the official announcement in public in front of the folks.
She was wearing a suit today, looking elegant, with her hair falling down her shoulders like silk, and a few strands of hair were blown by the air-conditioning, brushing lightly over her pointed ears. A pearl stud on her earlobe swayed as she tilted her head, and its luster was as warm as frozen moonlight.
This girl is so beautiful!
The perverts of the Human Alliance were immediately shocked: "Fuck, brother, you are so lucky!"
"This girl looks like she came out of the second dimension!"
They began to wonder if there were many beauties with pointy ears like these in the distant Green City.
"Well, I can't find a partner in the Human Alliance. How about I go to the Outlands to find one?"
“Maybe it’s a good idea.”
