Chapter 75 Picking up a batch of treasures for nothing

Watching these animals leave collectively, Lu Yuan had a bad feeling.

The valley where scorpions live is home to a large number of locust trees. The densely packed bean curd (a kind of green insect) on the trees is the main food of scorpions.

Wild animals do not have high IQs, but they often have their own survival instincts.

"Why do scorpions migrate... Where do they find so many bugs to eat if they abandon their territories?"

Lu Yuan plucked up his courage, went to the scorpion's nest and searched for a while, and found a piece of black ore weighing more than 200 kilograms.

[Black Iron Ore: Under certain unknown conditions, iron ore will turn into black iron with a small probability, greatly improving the material performance. (Low-quality natural wonder)]

[Ability: Persistence, idealistic nature is relatively stable, and can isolate other idealistic abilities to a certain extent. ]

Garbage man Lu Yuan didn’t know whether he should be excited or worried.

He didn't have to fight monsters to get the treasure here...

I wanted to go to the dungeon, but found out that the boss was away on a business trip? I jogged for another 20 kilometers and came to the territory of another small boss, the king snake.

This is a huge cave, and the sound of gurgling water can be heard from far away.

The geographical environment in the cave is winding and complex, with fast-flowing water leading to a dark underground world.

Lu Yuan was allergic to snakes, so he just watched from a distance.

As expected, the huge king cobra and its large number of quantum offspring had long since left here, leaving only snake sloughs and snake feces all over the ground.

Lu Yuan was not in a very good mood.

Then he couldn't control his hands and picked up the garbage in the cave.

[King Cobra's slough: the remains of a giant python after it sheds its skin. As a medicine, it can improve immunity and enhance cell activity. When made into clothes, the innate smell it emits can repel mosquito bites. (Low-quality, natural wonder)]

This thick snake skin is really a good thing! The most terrifying creatures in the forest are not wolves, tigers, leopards, or man-eating plants, but the poisonous insects that are everywhere... Although the extraordinary fire has therapeutic uses, it can't help but be bitten by insects all the time.

Moreover, some of these bugs might be bugs with super powers, which can make a bag as big as a bowl disappear in one bite.

[Venomous snake fang: The fallen teeth of the king cobra, very hard, a good material for bone knives. (Low quality, natural treasure)]

[Ability: Solid, it is harder than normal matter. ]

But Lu Yuan couldn't be happy even though he picked up the treasure for nothing.

"They sensed the crisis, so they chose to leave..."

The answer is obvious, it was the donkey-headed monster that scared the animals away!

The huge stone in his heart slowly lifted up, and Lu Yuan felt a little heavy.

"Oh shit."

When I looked back, I saw that the mother bear and her two cubs had not left.

The stupid mother bear was still guarding her corn tree and looked alert when she saw Lu Yuan.

"roar!"

Seeing that the stupid bear did not leave, his mood improved.

I'm very busy today and don't have the time to fight with it.

He left behind a piece of steamed bun and left.

Hurrying again, he arrived at the bees' territory.

The swarm of bees didn't leave either.

But the bee colony was obviously more agitated than before. Many of the worker bees had taken the wrong medicine. They flapped their wings and attacked before Lu Yuan even got close.

As for the Piranha Plant...well, even if this thing wanted to leave, it doesn't have the ability to do so.

"Only the stupid bear didn't react. Its extraordinary level is still too low, only level 1. Or maybe it sensed the crisis, but just couldn't bear to sacrifice its corn tree."

This crazy situation with impending storm shook Lu Yuan's confidence once again.

He may have encountered the "incomprehensible supernatural disaster" described by the Meda civilization, and it is not too late to escape now.

But where did he escape to?

Is it the city in the sky 17,000 kilometers away? What if there are similar monsters in that place? What should we do then?

…

…

He returned to his camp and looked up more information.

"The Meda civilization has been observing the outside world for 30,000 years, so there must be some information. I just haven't found it."

Even contact with humans was no longer interesting. He placed the metal ball next to himself, and the metal ball would read whatever he looked up.

The communicator occasionally made a "ding" sound, as if to express gratitude.

After searching for a long time, I actually found some useful things.

[Incomprehensible supernatural phenomena, summary and integration of investigation reports. ]

[Investigator: Guang Chaqiu]

[In Pangu Continent, there are too many strange and incomprehensible life forms. They are obsessed with entering the safe zone and linger around for a long time. ]

[We think that it is not appropriate to describe them as "life" because they do not seem to need material energy, but only spiritual energy...]

[That is, these species do not require normal feeding.]

[Where does idealistic energy come from? It's very simple. The higher the "God" attribute of a species, the higher the idealistic energy it will burst out when in extreme emotions.]

【At the same time, the extraordinary fire is a natural collection of idealistic energy. 】

[They hunt civilizations. Hunting ordinary creatures doesn't make much sense to them.]

Lu Yuan cursed in his heart: "Why does it feel like the extraordinary fire has turned into a trap?"

[We have observed many similar idealistic life forms. The most powerful ones often have a common feature: they can produce super-large-scale, "field"-like abilities.]

[We don’t know yet what kind of changes will happen in the field. ]

【Photos】【Photos】

【……】

[Some experts believe that idealistic creatures also have physical entities. If they do not have physical entities, it will be much more difficult for them to interfere with physical reality.]

[So as long as heavy weapons are used to blow up their physical bodies, idealistic creatures will also become weak and even die. ]

[We think this statement makes sense. Because most unknown supernatural events that occur in a safe zone can be solved by high temperature, high pressure, physical isolation, nuclear radiation, etc.]

[This also proves that supernatural power has its own limits. ]

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

[They are definitely not invincible, otherwise all civilizations active in the outside world would have been hunted down by them long ago.]

Lu Yuan felt a little relieved and patted his forehead: "It's good to have a solution."

Looking closely at these photos, one monster after another, black figures, sphinxes, and chickens with a head but a tail, their most typical feature is that the light around them is greatly distorted, just like black holes.

In addition, these photos can also cause people to have special fears on a psychological level.

The extraordinary fire in the mind beats involuntarily, either shrinking or full of fighting spirit, all depending on the thoughts of the holder.

Upon closer observation, you will find that the monster photographed by the Meda civilization is much stronger than the donkey-headed monster you encountered.

Those "black areas" are so airtight that people feel frightened and breathless when they see them.

As for the donkey-headed monster...

Although Lu Yuan's sixth sense was a little frightened, he felt that as long as he planned carefully, he would have a chance of winning - this was an innate intuition.

"After all, the donkey-headed monster had just woken up, and his whole body was rotten, and he didn't even have the strength to do it."

“And these monsters in the photos are all very imposing and show no signs of decay.”

Idealistic rules are complex and vast, but the laws of physics also govern this world.

A loose and rotten bone is definitely not as strong as a healthy and fresh bone.

Lu Yuan suddenly realized that the donkey-headed monster was trying to do something by squatting near the remains of the salamander... Was it using the salamander's skeleton to perform surgery on itself?

"Let's see if there is any information."

He gently turned the page.

[Incomprehensible supernatural phenomena (top secret file No. 112397)]

[Investigator: Guang Chaqiu]

[In Pangu Continent, the dangers are not only those idealistic monsters, but also civilization. ]

[We have observed more than once that foreign civilizations have been at war with each other.]

[In a very distant place, a huge explosion occurred, which was probably caused by a nuclear weapon.]

[According to our scientists’ speculation: the benefits of two civilizations meeting each other, communicating on an equal footing, and trading with each other are greater than plundering each other.]

[War is risky after all. Civilized wars are life-and-death struggles. Once a war starts, it is difficult to hold back.]

【There may be reasons we don’t know. 】

[Of course, it is also possible that the gap between the two sides is too great, resulting in the strong civilization being able to easily plunder the weak civilization.]

[We have stayed in the safe zone for too long and are clearly the weakest civilization. What should we do?]

【……】

The investigator, named "Guangcha Qu", also mixed some personal opinions into the report, calling for the abolition of the safe zone as soon as possible and entering the Pangu Continent.

Lu Yuan looked at the time when Comrade Guangcha Qu wrote the report. It was probably the 150th year after the Meda civilization entered the Pangaea Continent? That is, 15,000 years in Pangaea Continent time.

But what Comrade "Guangcha Qu" certainly did not expect was that even after another two hundred years, the Meda civilization still did not abolish the safe zone.

What a tragedy! But Lu Yuan also understood why the Meda civilization was so cautious.

Because the world outside... is really dangerous!

"Fortunately, the war of civilizations will happen ten thousand years later..."

"What I need to consider now is, should I flee or fight?"

"Killing that donkey-headed monster is definitely a huge milestone for civilization... and it can also nip this danger in the bud!"

"As long as we kill it, there shouldn't be much risk around the Meda civilization."

But the information about the Meda civilization was too scarce. They had never fought against these idealistic lives and only had some simple speculations.

There are no clear standards on how to kill and to what extent, and you need to decide for yourself.

You have to bear the risk yourself.

As the night deepened, Lu Yuan leaned against the window, gazing at the distant stars, feeling the vastness of the universe, the pride of life, the preciousness of time, and the proximity of death.

"Old Wolf, I'm beginning to be scared to death. This is a good thing, but also a bad thing."

"If I seek comfort, many opportunities will slip away."
