I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early Chapter 232 - 182: The All-Powerful Conch Girl

Until now, Lu Yuan still felt a sincere sense of regret.

It was too unpleasant!

"Originally, I could have found a complete set of Divine Equipnt! Now I can only pick up air."

"What’s the use of equipnt? Knowledge is the ultimate power," Old Cat was even more speechless. "And this is just a dream, you’re taking it too seriously..."

It suddenly beca suspicious, muttering to itself, "That’s not right, such a powerful dream must be constructed based on reality."

"Even with the abilities of a ’Ghost,’ it’s impossible to fabricate millions and tens of millions of people’s lifelike dreams out of nothing... It’s only possible if it really existed."

Its voice trailed off, falling into long contemplation.

Many phenona of mind would only occur the first ti one encounters them.

For instance, when seeing the Terracotta Army, Babylon’s Hanging Garden, the Temple of Artemis, and other world wonders for the first ti, one would feel shock and amazent.

But as the number of contacts increased, people beca accustod to them.

It was Lu Yuan’s first visit to Sky City; it was understandable that his dayti thoughts resulted in nightti dreams, resonating with history.

"You an, this dream really happened?"

"Based on my understanding of dream abilities, it should be so..."

Old Cat regretted, "You should have let the dream continue to the very end, then let Conch pull you back."

"Investigating this matter now, you may have to go through a lot of hardships."

Conch quickly disclaid any responsibility, "I... I may not have that kind of ability. What if I fail? Mr. Lu might turn into a dried-up, soulless fish, right?"

Lu Yuan gave her a look.

"I understand now, it must be you causing trouble!" The Undying Giant Turtle opened its huge maw, wrongfully accusing the innocent.

Conch Girl said gloomily, "Smart Mr. Turtle, use your walnut-sized brain to think about it."

"We’ve been living together for two years now. If I were to cause trouble, shouldn’t I do it when everyone is at their weakest? What sense does it make for to do it now? I’ve decided not to talk to you for a month."

Is two years a long ti? Is one month a long ti?

The Undying Giant Turtle harrumphed, wouldn’t it all pass after just a sleep?

Thus, they began their cold war.

"Conch Girl, what is your ability?" Old Cat asked again.

"I don’t know what my ability is, maybe I’m just a little smarter than the average person? I really am quite smart, aren’t I?"

"Okay, I admit I’m a flatterer now, but that’s just good manners. Once I grow, I’ll still flatter you."

"But then, I would do so with a teasing tone. Can you handle my flattery?"

That little green vine sprouted from Conch and began to sway to and fro.

She sounded so smack-worthy!

"ow ow ow!" Old Cat couldn’t take it anymore, crazily scratching Conch’s shell with its paws, nearly breaking its own claws.

Lu Yuan also felt a bit annoyed.

But at the mont, he dared not sleep again, only pacing back and forth in the room, waiting for dawn.

"Are you very nervous?"

"No, not really." Lu Yuan rubbed his hands together, exhaled, and sat down on the floor, "As long as I don’t sleep, I’ll be fine. I can replace sleep with deep ditation."

"Or hide in Different Space to rest; the problem isn’t too big."

Conch’s voice dropped down, "Actually, I’m even more nervous... I keep thinking, who am I really?"

"If the entire civilization is destroyed, what’s the point of my existence? Why did I survive?"

"Who are my parents, and what do they look like?"

"I don’t even know the na of this civilization..."]

["Or perhaps, I’m really just an insect in the desert that happened to evolve intelligence?"]

["I know these thoughts are aningless, but occasionally I still ponder and sigh at the fickleness of fate."]

Lu Yuan fell silent. He suddenly realized that he had sowhat neglected the lonely heart of this little companion he had been with for two years.

Although she is always full of energy and a chatterbox, even the robot Old Cat ponders philosophy.

Living in this world, there will always be so worries.

Lu Yuan’s strength lies in his long experiences of life and death. He looks upon life and death with indifference and stands firm against any challenge!

But if the Conch really is a sentient being, then it’s only natural for her to have a vulnerable soul.

"It’s okay to not have a na. You can be called Conch, what else do you need a na for?"

"As long as you want, you can always follow us."

["Pfft, seeing as you thought so hard just to co up with that comfort, I’ll pretend to feel a bit better."]

Old Lu was embarrassed.

Bearing the pain, he took out a Soul Baby Fruit and handed it to his little companion whose tone was asking for a beating.

["What is this? For ? I only have one soul... I can’t eat."]

"You can eat it, I’m not lying to you."

["Alright, let’s satisfy my curiosity for now. I’ve never eaten anything before~"]

All that was left of the Conch was a soul, and the Soul Baby Fruit was specially made to nourish the soul. It was a rare delicacy.

Only soone as wealthy and generous as Lu Yuan could afford this.

In fact, he didn’t have many of them either. The few he had grown in the past years amounted to only three.

"Where’s my fruit?!" Mr. Turtle beca a parrot, "Alright, let’s satisfy my curiosity for now. I have never eaten anything before... wahahaha!"

Lu Yuan felt a tingling in his scalp and was all unsettled.

Why is it that when you say the sa sentence, it sounds so disgusting?

Reluctantly, he gave Mr. Turtle a Pogranate Fruit.

Imdiately, Mr. Turtle was over the moon and decided from then on, he would parrot the Conch.

["Is this what sweetness tastes like? It’s like a cloying strawberry scent, with a hint of sourness and a whiff of creaminess... so delicious..."]

["Don’t get wrong, the taste is just so-so, it can’t satisfy my taste buds at all.]

After a while, she awkwardly added: ["Could... could I have a little more?"]

["It’s a smart move for you to appease in advance so that I grow stronger."]

["Just so you know, I’m a very polite person and I rember kindness. Just give a bit more."]

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes, this guy really deserved a beating. Imitating her tone, he said, "You scrappy thing... how about that, did I make you laugh? You’re such a glutton, looks like you are indeed just a riff-raff!"]

The Conch unceremoniously responded: ["You’re the greedy riff-raff... Do I need to change my lines for you? Or, maybe I should change my tone?"]

"No need, no need, you’re fine just as you are, don’t mind the turtle."

And so, they waited until dawn.

The Conch gathered her spirits again.

Everyone still resolved to continue investigating information about Sky City.

After all, since they were here, they had to settle down for a long ti. So things couldn’t be avoided even if they wanted to. It was better to muster the courage to face them.
