Chapter 542: Chapter 398: Discovering a Mountain 100,000 ters High

People were dying to set foot on a solid piece of land again.

After the war with the South Island Civilization, the civilians were left with severe psychological trauma, the horrors of the deep sea, the naless gray mist, and over fifty years shrouded in ghost fog—all too nightmarish even to think about!

Now that they had glimpsed the vibrant tropical rainforest and the golden beaches, how could they not be thrilled?

They knew that land wasn’t necessarily safer than the sea, but urging the governnt to promptly investigate and designate a tourism zone didn’t seem like such a grave error…

Even Lu Yuan, deep down, kind of wanted to take the ladies of his household out for a honeymoon.

Sky City was too small; no matter where you went, you’d run into acquaintances greeting you and talking shop—it was truly annoying!

...

He too yearned for the pleasures of a world just for two.

So, under these circumstances, the investigation team and the Insect Clan Army first scouted the beach and the surrounding 100 kiloters, confirming it as uninhabited with no traces of civilization, Safe Zones, or particularly dangerous plants or animals. Only then did they kick off the nationwide tourism project.

The first phase of tourism was limited to that stretch of beach.

Lu Yuan brought a crowd of civilians to the beach.

“Please enter in an orderly fashion, do not enter the forest, thank you for your cooperation. Please do not damage the beach environnt and take your trash with you.”

Under the gentle caress of the morning light, the beach shimred with a golden glow, like countless fragnts of ti, quietly welcoming the arrival of humans.

With the “Greedy Demon God’s” protection, even if there were so risks, there weren’t any major concerns.

So of the more resourceful youngsters had already started selling food: “Fresh seafood! Fruit juice and grilled at!”

anwhile, the reporters were going “click, click” with their caras, writing their articles.

The laughter of the young boys and girls was indeed a delightful sight.

If the surrounding areas were confird to be safe, even the little kids from school could be brought to play on the beach for a while.

Lu Yuan lay under a parasol, wearing sunglasses, enjoying the massage service provided by the Maid, his mood couldn’t be any better: “Maid, go buy a cup of juice… 30% apple juice, 30% orange juice, and add 40% water.”

“Maid, apply so sunscreen for , cover my whole body.”

“My dog seems to be bullying soone else’s dog, go discipline it.”

The Maid was puffing with anger; she had wanted to wear a bikini and do a little uniform temptation.

But the nature of the Green Grass People was more reserved. If it were just Lu Yuan, she might dare to wear it, but with so many people on the beach, she had to let it go.

Ever since she lost the bet last ti, she had beco a maid, and this despicable guy really put her to work, showing no compassion at all—what a hateful man.

Thinking of this, Conch gently kicked Lu Yuan’s shin.

“Holy King, what’s this new reward? Give two more,” Lu Yuan played the part of a Lowly maid.

“Hmph, scum, one day I’ll turn things around and beco the master.”

“Maid, my skin is a bit itchy, help scratch it.”

Conch gritted her teeth but obediently climbed onto Lu Yuan: “You lecherous King Shang!”

“Thank you for the complint.”

While enjoying the exquisite service, Lu Yuan was still diligently working. He was reading a reconnaissance report from the front lines: this tropical rainforest was astonishingly vast, roughly estimated at 16 million square kiloters!

This forest’s area is comparable to three Amazon Rainforests.

The annual precipitation is around 2000 milliters.

“The sea at one end is a tropical rainforest, while at the other is a vast desert. Nature isn’t really all that fair.”

The density of extraordinary creatures here is ordinary, and a cursory reconnaissance found no relics of civilization. However, thanks to the vast area of the rainforest, so extraordinary creatures like trees and animals could still be captured.

“With such an extensive forest, the expected inco is only 200 Spirit Essence creatures… this is really… well, it’s fine, I guess.” Lu Yuan laughed to himself, reminding himself not to be too greedy, 200 Spirit Essence creatures were not few after all.

“Mining resources such as small coal, iron, and copper mines were found, but no Mind ore deposits… as expected.”

Following that, Lu Yuan turned to the next report, and his brows furrowed.

The reconnaissance soldier, riding a “Flying Dragon,” had crossed the tropical rainforest and saw an even more vast terrain beyond.

It was a huge plain, and… a super mountain peak that defied description!

The scale of this mountain peak simply surpassed human imagination; its height even reached 100,000 ters!

It stood like a gigantic wall erected upon the Earth.

What was more miraculous was that the vegetation on the mountain was sparse and rare, it looked just like an oversized slab of bluestone.

“We have sufficient reasons to suspect… this mountain peak was artificially constructed!”

But the super mountain was not the strangest thing; the reconnaissance soldier, running out of supplies, had risked his life climbing up the super high mountain, and at the very top… he saw a massive dark crack leading to the deepest parts of the Earth.

This great fissure in the Earth seed to stretch tens of thousands of kiloters, black smoke rising, magma flowing, bringing with it a sense of weirdness and divinity, and even its width was a few hundred kiloters.

Using a series of technological thods to asure, the depth of the Earth’s crack could also be 200,000 ters, truly an astonishing depth.

“Does that an, up ahead in the terrain, there are two super mountains, with a spacious crack leading deep into the Earth between them? Like the shape of a hot dog…”

When Lu Yuan saw this scene, he was so shocked he nearly leapt out of his seat.

A term abruptly surfaced in his mind: “Strategic Point!”

According to human understanding: to avoid the Epoch Disaster, the probability of finding remnants of powerful civilizations in “Strategic Points” is much higher than in plains or forests.

The scene up ahead was truly extraordinary, and the level of this “Strategic Point” was even higher than that of the Source Fire Civilization in the past. (Note: Source Fire Civilization was a civilization protected by the Mirage Dragon.)

Old Lu thought of sothing clever, his heart itching to act. Now he was too poor, unable to even hand out gifts to children; it was about ti for the “Greedy Demon God” to pick up so scraps and shake off these days of poverty!

The reconnaissance soldier continued in the report: “Near this mountain, we also discovered traces of civilization activities. So extraordinary plants that originally existed in the rainforest may have been dug up along with their roots.”

“In addition, we found several campfire sites with traces of plastic waste, indicating that the civilization had achieved a certain degree of technology.”

“However, the reconnaissance forces were too limited in the short term, and we have not yet found the settlent sites of this civilization. It cannot be ruled out that they have settled inside the crack or have used so ans to hide themselves.”
