I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 541 - 397: Arrival at the Coastline

Chapter 541: Chapter 397: Arrival at the Coastline

In the next two years, Lu Yuan tailored a domain for these lining up Grandmasters almost every week.

His experience was accumulating rapidly, just like a surgical expert who, after many surgeries, becomes much more skilled than an intern… Moreover, he also earned a significant reward! Tailoring domains, obviously, came with a fee, and the impoverished Lu Yuan managed to alleviate his financial stress somewhat.

This definitely wasn’t embezzlement!

The overall strength of humanity was also continuously increasing.

Over a hundred Level 7 Grandmasters, in most civilizations, would be a terrifying military force!

However, these Grandmasters were all very obedient and respectful.

...

During their domain customization process, they subtly realized the terrifying power hidden inside the “Greedy Demon God,” a force that could easily crush them!

The world’s cultivation prodigies all have sensitive perceptions; facing a difference in magnitude, they instinctively felt panic, hence no infractions occurred like “using martial arts to break laws.”

Moreover, these Grandmasters had grown wise, realizing that “Combat Domains” had limited use. Thus, they leaned more towards functional and defensive domains, like enhancing reconnaissance abilities, boosting concentration, or improving health recovery rates.

Some even opted for domains that simply increased “productivity,” improvements like enhanced Animal Affinity or advanced versions of Plant Affinity, and so forth.

Thanks to the high education standards and favorable humanistic environment, whether it was the new generation or the older ones, everyone knew some Engravings and studied various job skills, contributing to productivity, which was encouraged by the government.

Lu Yuan was delighted to witness this phenomenon; after all, times have truly changed. It was no longer the era of using masters for assassinations; even now, the combat power of elite Insect Soldiers had silently surpassed humans, and more productivity was always better.

He even thought, Level 5 experts could also customize domains…

“Why not catch them and practice on them?”

“Although they haven’t fully developed their abilities to the limit…”

Just then, the Communicator suddenly rang, and Lu Yuan saw it was the Reconnaissance Team calling, so he quickly answered.

“Report! Our aerial reconnaissance has spotted the coastline! At about 1000 kilometers ahead in the direction we are moving, at our city’s current pace, we’re about 300 hours away from reaching the coastline.”

“There is a vast land there, with no crises detected yet, nor any signs of civilization.”

“I’ve sent the photos to the communications room.”

They had finally reached the other side of the ocean…

Lu Yuan was instantly invigorated, turning on his computer to enjoy the photos taken from the sky.

On the golden mudflats, masses of crabs the size of fists were crawling!

Among them were bucket-sized gigantic crabs, possibly mutated creatures, enjoying the seaweed there.

Near the mudflats, there was also a stretch of beach that extended for 100 kilometers, the sea breeze fluttered over the sandy beach, mixing with the salty moist air and swaying coconut trees, creating a tranquil and beautiful painting.

Further away naturally was a vibrant tropical rainforest.

The climate in this area seemed a bit hot and humid, widely growing plants that looked like coconut trees, as well as sago palms, banana trees, cassia trees, and so forth… Even in a corner of the photo, people saw large trees similar to the “Cannibal Flower”—ancient Extraordinary Plants.

A subtle thrill and emotion surged through Lu Yuan’s heart.

Honestly, having drifted in the ocean for so long, seeing the same scenery every day, was genuinely exhausting. Even though Sky City was vast and solid, humans, as creatures grown from the land, how could they not crave real land?

He commanded through his headset: “Reconnaissance Team, land first, conduct safety explorations, investigate the potential landing sites, and scout the numbers of Extraordinary Animals and Plants.”

“It will still take some time before Sky City can land on the land. Prioritize checking surrounding risks.”

“Understood!”

Lu Yuan quickly convened a senior meeting to discuss the landing.

Everyone was rubbing their hands together, appearing relieved, even Old Cat, who had always been the rational kind, also showed a lazy sense of “it’s over.”

This ocean journey had really been… too, too long, always worrying about the city sinking.

Now it was finally coming to an end.

“Wait, we can’t go ashore directly yet,” Professor Desert suddenly slapped his head.

The most troubling issue now was actually the “Coral Island Cultivation Center”; the seawater inside was connected to the external ocean.

Once they landed on land, it meant that the water cycle would be broken, posing higher demands for environmental pollution management.

Then there were submarines, the Overseas Fleet, also needing to be reclaimed.

These large equipments had to be moved to storage, just in case they might be needed in the future?

Other matters… were not so troublesome.

Sky City had long been prepared to take off again and land on land.

“Within a month, we can complete these tasks.”

Of course, the most important thing before landing was safety.

The deep sea was actually safer than the continent because oceanic civilizations were sparse, and the risk of Anomaly attacks were not high—Anomalies also need energy, after all, running into the deep sea might starve themselves to death.

Even many Anomalies probably couldn’t swim.

But the land was where various Demons and Ghosts mainly roamed.

Thus, the upper council organized a thousand-man combined investigation team, each team twenty people, led by one Level 7 Grandmaster, totaling 50 teams, to check the safety within a thousand miles radius.

If they encountered any Extraordinary Creature, they would capture it directly; if they encountered unknown civilizations then return immediately, without needing much interaction, protecting themselves was more important.

Over a thousand Insect Soldiers were also sent out for reconnaissance, letting them chew some wood and move their limbs; Sky City was too small to accommodate their gallops.

“There shouldn’t be any problem now.”

The result was unexpected by Lu Yuan; after this news was made public, it actually caused a huge stir among the civilians!

The frontline reconnaissances were only responsible for the field investigation, but the civilians in the rear had more to consider…

Countless civilians also eagerly signed up, like Treasure Hunting Teams, geographers, botanists, zoologists, educators, all clamoring; they wanted to land on land for scientific exploration!

Various applications, like snowflakes, flew into the government’s public mailbox.

“Don’t think I don’t know what these guys are thinking about!” Lu Yuan slammed the table hard.

Well, what people cared about more was… when they could take a break on the land and tour around for a while!
