I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 510
Chapter 510: Chapter 376: Hibernation and Protracted War Chapter 510: Chapter 376: Hibernation and Protracted War “`
[Mr.
Lu, in light of your melancholy, I’ll tell you two pieces of good news.]
“`
“What?”
“`
[This Soul Gem has the function to enhance Concentration.
Anything you do inside it, you become inexplicably focused.]
[If you really have nothing else to do, you can come here to study the Engravings.]
“`
“It’s normal! Without a sense of Concentration, who would want to keep guarding this place?
But I need to deal with matters outside first, then I can stay with you.”
“`
[The second piece of good news.
Staying in the Soul Gem and suppressing this Ghost, the speed of Divine Attribute enhancement seems to be faster than under normal circumstances.]
“`
“Um…
What do you mean?”
“`
[I’ve discovered a part of the Ghost’s Ideal Energy, after a complex transformation, becomes a type of mental nourishment.
This might be a special form of nourishment.
...
There’s not much of the Ideal Energy, but it’s unique, and probably one of the reasons the Stranger is willing to stay here.]
“`
“Are you saying the entire flying saucer was built for the purpose of enhancing ‘Divine Attributes’?”
“`
[Perhaps that’s the case.
There needs to be some benefits for suppressing a [Ghost].
It’s a pity that my Divine Attributes are about to reach their limit, and since I have Immortal Equipment, the value of this function is limited.]
“`
“It’s equivalent to Immortal Equipment?”
“`
[Not quite on par with Immortal Level, as it can’t increase the limit.
It only helps you reach that limit faster.]
“`
Lu Yuan nodded.
If a flying saucer could match the value of Immortal Equipment, then “Quantum Civilization” would be too terrifying, as it would mean they could mass-produce immortality!
But if it cannot increase the limit, then its value is actually acceptable…
It’s just a resource that speeds up Cultivation.
“`
[I’m thinking, maybe we can use Green Grass Paradise to take over the function of this Soul Gem?
When the time comes, we could have ten thousand staff members in Green Grass Paradise take over the suppression work.]
[This mental Energy that is nourished in return could be transmitted to these workers through the Opium poppy, slowly enhancing their Divine Attributes.]
[Of course, if you, Greedy Demon God, want it, we can also give some to you.
Let you hurry up to 30 Godhood points.]
“`
“I, the Greedy Demon God, am not so greedy now.
After this battle, I’ve realized just how limited an individual’s strength really is.
Even those weak little Monsters, they could actually overwhelm and kill me.”
“Many ants can kill an elephant.”

“`
Leaning against the wall, Lu Yuan sighed, “But these two really are good news.
Once Green Grass Paradise takes over, you can also get away, right?”
[That’s right!
By then my soul might be fully satiated, and I know you’re looking forward to!]
“`
“Then I really am looking forward to it…
I hope by that time, the human situation has improved.”
Lu Yuan shook his head, unable to even crack a joke, and turned to leave the spaceship.
…
Now the humans’ active areas had shrunk to just three places: Sky Pit, the spaceship, and the nuclear power station.
The development of civilization had come to a complete halt, shrouded in thick fog; only a sliver of sunlight could penetrate, and food production was nearly non-existent.
The number of workers was maintained at three thousand.
Fortunately, as if humans had foreseen this, a lot of food had been stored in the Sky Pit, enough to feed three thousand people for several hundred years.
However, Lu Yuan still felt that there were too many people.
There was no real need to stay idle here, risking mutations.
The fight against the Ghost fog was likely to be a long-term battle.
After the scavenging of spoils of war was done, he had the soldiers rest in shifts.
Each person would be on duty for one year, then rest in the Sky Pit for a while before continuing their duty.
And in the southeast corner of Sky City, in the History Museum, a small memorial was added, commemorating the soldiers who died in the war as well as the Insect Soldiers.
Because of the bad weather, not many people visited the museum, only Little Mirage Dragon would occasionally come by.
Its lively big eyes scanned the history of Source Fire Civilization.
Then it read the history of humanity…
Once life passes away, it will never return.
However, in the long river of history, they would be eternally remembered; as long as humanity doesn’t perish, they won’t be forgotten.
This is another form of eternal life.
The Little Mirage Dragon seemed to have grown a lot.
…
And so the years passed by!
In the first year, by the sixth month, the Opium poppy tree had recovered once more.
Green Grass Paradise began to operate normally.
Lu Yuan seriously suspected that it…
was a scam!
How could Old Deng, who had survived Epoch Disasters, die so easily?
Recovered in just a year?
Really?!
The guy, a Great Spirit Rhythmer’s soul containing immeasurable Ideal Energy, had been outright embezzled by it!
But now Miss Conch has no time to discipline it, it could only be scammed successfully…
However, the rapid recovery of the Opium poppy tree also brought tangible benefits – humans could start some engineering projects with low risk through remote control of robots from “Green Grass Paradise.”
All in all, it was worth it!
…
By the third year, Professor Desert’s research team of over a hundred people had developed a large air extractor!
This large air extractor could filter out the power, originating from [Ghosts], from the air.
By sealing this power in a container made of “Resin,” they could clear out the “Ghost fog” – a Legendary Level material “Eternal Essence Gold” was used, so only one could be made.
It was estimated that it would take about thirty years to clear the fog; alright, it seems long, but with the current technological strength of humanity, that’s all we could do.
