I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 522
Chapter 522: Chapter 384: [Greedy Demon God] VS [Ghost] Chapter 522: Chapter 384: [Greedy Demon God] VS [Ghost] Old Cat couldn’t help but scratch his own head; this information sounded very important.
Even with Lu Yuan’s reminder, he dredged up some content from distant fragments of memory—the real superweapons of the mind seemed to consume this very thing…
that is, the super weapons created by the Third-level Civilization or Fourth-level Civilization to withstand natural disasters.
Old Cat blinked his eyes, pondering hard: “The number of Civilization Points…
can it be increased?”
Lu Yuan frowned: “As long as we are developing and history keeps changing, we accumulate some each year, but not too much, around 1-3 points.”
“Like now, with everyone in hibernation, there probably won’t be any accumulation of Qi Fortune.”
“Unless we exterminate other civilizations, plundering the fate of others, that’s the only way we’ll have more income…”
“Anyway, we have between six thousand and ten thousand now, which isn’t too little.”
“Six thousand to ten thousand…
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
that should be enough.” Old Cat nodded and said, “If we come across any High-level Relics in the future, we won’t be completely broke.”
The man and the cat discussed the future and fate of humanity for a while.
In fact, there’s still a lot to be done now, after the war everything needed to be rebuilt.
...
Whether it’s internal management or the integration of the South Island Civilization heritage, there’s still much troublesome work to do.
But with so few people currently awake, climbing the technology ladder is impossible, so the focus must be on the most crucial and simplest matters.
Old Cat suddenly had an idea: “Since you’ve been able to concoct such a badass thing, why not go to the Great Lai Empire’s Sealing Chamber and have a trial?
Otherwise, without knowing the real combat strength, it would be difficult to make estimations.”
“I’ll accompany you.
It’s time to check whether the [Blood Ghost]’s seal has loosened…
it has been so many years, we should take a look.”
Lu Yuan excitedly nodded: “That’s a good idea.
While I’m at it, I want to deter that damn [Mirror Demon] and see if I can get some intelligence.”
He thought of those 180,000 Mutated Hibernators…
His heart was still concerned about this matter.
How good would it be if they could be saved…
After setting the appointment, Old Cat stepped away with tiny steps, seemingly in a fairly good mood.
And Lu Yuan buried himself in some official duties, including the recent periodic hibernation reports and the progress of Lu Tiantian’s research, and so on.
He went to Conch to boast and lament, “I’m really broke right now,” “My treasury now only has Immortal Equipment and some trashy gear.”
“Epic level…
look at you, playing the pauper after scoring big~” Conch rolled her eyes, giving such an evaluation.
Then she sweetly praised, “Mr.
Lu’s skills may have already surpassed the greatest craftsman of the Green Grass Civilization,” “Can you make a piece of equipment for my mother?
Nothing too fancy, just suitable.”
This made Lu Yuan’s mood blossom radiantly, having such a sweet sister cheering him on really filled him with emotion.
“Once I gather some materials, I’ll make something for your mom…”
“Sigh, I actually want to find her and discuss the reproduction of the Insect Race.
In the current situation, losing one means one fewer…
we can’t afford to die.”
In the end, he took a long sleep to fully recharge.
Only then did he call Old Cat, transfer his soul back into the “Phantom Body,” retrieve the Tree of Life back into his body, activate Spatial Teleportation, and enter the Great Lai Empire’s spaceship.
…
“Whoosh!” Greedy Demon God·Lu Yuan entered the High-level Phenomenon Laboratory.
The passage of time had not brought any obvious changes to this place; the peeling grey wall plaster kept falling off, emitting a scent of decay.
As soon as Lu Yuan entered, he felt the cold and dense, terrifying atmosphere.
Over the decades, the seals inside had loosened even more, and the power of the [Ghost] was constantly seeping out of the resin.
Unfortunately for them, he wasn’t the same person he once was.
A red light on his body surface flickered slightly, immediately dissipating the gloom.
[Craftsman Master, you’ve come?
How are the Mutated People being handled?
I suppose, conventional methods wouldn’t suffice, right?][Mirror Demon] noticed Lu Yuan’s arrival and spoke in a mocking tone.
Its attitude wasn’t good, since they were enemies.
Lu Yuan was expressionless; he had entered in a wooden puppet body, but to deceive the [Demon], he had also squeezed in his human body, looking like operating a Gundam.
[Cooperating with me is the optimal choice, isn’t it?
I could sign a contract with you, promising to never trouble you, even providing you with more information and materials.]
[You must be poor by this point in your development, right?]
[There are endless civilizations under heaven, I don’t have to fight you to death.
Cooperate with me, and you can survive the Epoch Disasters and live to the next age.
Isn’t that better?]
Lu Yuan couldn’t be bothered with the constantly cajoling guy and slowly made his way to the room where the [Ghost] was.
Because he was now so heavy, to avoid crushing the floor, he was wearing a piece of “Pandora Anti-Gravity Armor.”
“I’m going to open the door,” he whispered.
“Wait!” Old Cat suddenly became a bit nervous, almost more than Lu Yuan himself.
“Hmm?”
“If you fail, will the gear explode everywhere and you won’t be able to resurrect?”
“Well! definitely cannot! but I am now truly the Greedy Demon God.”
Old Cat said affectionately, “Comrade in arms, if something happens to you, I’ll take good care of your wife.”
“I really regret giving you that coat of fur.”
Lu Yuan steeled himself and pushed the door open—at that moment, he was indeed a bit nervous.
“Cre-eak~”
In the silent environment, the noise was particularly jarring.
At that moment, the [Blood Ghost] opened its ferocious pupils and looked towards Lu Yuan.
The darkness began to spread, and some unclear, meaningless murmurs penetrated his skin through the air.
Before, even a slight hint of this force would have caused his blood to boil and stars to burst before his eyes.
Now, Lu Yuan shook it off lightly, the red light emanating from his body making the darkness collapse.
He didn’t even feel much pressure.
It was as if this body was naturally supposed to possess such strength.
This is…
The power of myth.
…
The eyes of the Greedy Demon God blossomed with red light as he quietly stared at the Blood Ghost.
This time, I stand here.
Not a step back.
Perhaps those beyond words, the effort and the gain, are the secrets hidden within our lives; hidden within countless adventures and struggles.
Pangu Continent, Ninth Epoch, the forty-eight thousand one hundred and fifth day.
Lu Yuan created his own myth and gained the initial power to resist the Ghost.
But…
it’s only initial.
After all, he is only opposing a sealed, incomplete Blood Ghost.
Just a head.
…
Actually, Old Cat was quite nervous, its whole body bristled, and its shiny eyes were fixedly staring.
Blurry memories surged up.
“…We create…
to resist the Ghost…”
“We succeeded!
We have succeeded!
Hahaha, we no longer need to fear…
this is an entirely new anomaly!!”
“…This is too evil…
How can we create such an existence…
it will exterminate how many civilizations?”
“Stop being naive…
if we can’t even counter the Ghost, how can we talk about…”
These memories made it feel slightly mentally disarrayed, always feeling as if it had seen some kind of historical repetition…
But the situation was completely different from what it imagined, Lu Yuan actually…
easily withstood the pressure of the Ghost.
“Meow?!” It couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Don’t worry, no big issue!
This Gundam is unprecedentedly strong.”
Old Cat trembled, its fragmented memory only had these bits, no matter how it tried, it couldn’t recall anything more crucial.
…
Even more shocking was actually the Mirror Demon, this endlessly chattering guy, who suddenly calmed down from that “bluffing” state.
It discovered…
It actually couldn’t see through this strange wooden puppet in front of it!
Completely indecipherable…
The puppet looked somewhat exquisite, just like an epic-level toy, but in reality…
it felt like it was facing an abyss-like black hole.
The power of the Ghost was directly repelled.
At this moment, the Mirror Demon felt as if it was taken back to a long, long time ago…
In a fierce battle, it was defeated by the mighty ones from the Great Lai Empire.
No matter how unmatched its wisdom was, having lived for countless years and plotted numerous schemes, in front of that pair of sagacious eyes, it seemed like everything was seen through…
“…Demon…
the failed creation of the Ancient Epoch, truly a calamity for thousands of years…”
The Demon did not have too many emotions.
It was always rational, but it also had its own pride.
It always remembered the words of that Wise Man who evaluated it.
At this moment, the indiscernible mist once again appeared…
The Mirror Demon was unwilling to submit to being a forever prisoner.
It launched an assault!
Body Control!
A shadow passed over the surface of the mirror, a light-speed attack aimed at Lu Yuan!
On the mirror, the image of a wooden man appeared.
Lu Yuan suddenly felt, a mysterious Mind had taken over his body.
But this force was not even as strong as the Ghost.
Moreover, this body was only compatible with his own soul, with the added power of Steel within, how easy would it be to control?
A flash of red light expelled the mysterious Mind from his body.
Lu Yuan snorted coldly: “Mr.
Demon, since you’ve become a prisoner, just behave yourself.
Stop thinking about pulling any tricks.”
The Mirror Demon fell into silence.
It began to rack its brain, thinking about how it was defeated.
There are countless Superpowers in the world, but there is a hierarchy to their strength.
The most critical aspects fall on two levels, the first is the mechanism of the Superpower, for example, the noble Space Ability, without a targeted ability, even the power of the Ghost cannot break through.
For another example, Curses can counter Space Abilities, overcoming strength with weakness.
The second is…
the intensity of the strength value!
This is easy to understand, in situations where mechanism is not restrained, value determines everything.
Indecipherable, completely indecipherable…
Thus, it could only silently think of the current strategies and…
what exactly happened.
