I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early Chapter 585: 427: The Protagonists of this Epoch are You Guy

Chapter 585: Chapter 427: The Protagonists of this Epoch are You Guys

The grand banquet began promptly at 5:30 in the evening.

Amid the greenery and flowers, cups clinked and chatter filled the air as the guests enjoyed the convivial atmosphere.

Unconsciously, Lu Yuan felt a bit intoxicated—not from the alcohol, but from a ntal euphoria.

He loved this feeling of returning ho fully rewarded, with everyone feeling satisfied… Perhaps, this is what they call the joy of realizing the “value of life.”

Even history would note it simply: “In the 155th year of the Ninth Epoch, humans t the Underground Alliance; war did not break out, and both sides conversed with great enjoynt.”

If both humans and the Underground Alliance beca great civilizations in the future, this note would be highlighted with great significance.

...

If one or both sides disappeared into the river of history, this note… would beco insignificant.

But who knows what the future holds?

…

The Rat Artisans also attended this banquet, engaging in so exchange with the craftsn of the Underground Alliance.

“Does the Gear Civilization still exist in the world?”

“Hmm… that’s really hard to say.”

“There’s a theory that these high-level civilizations all fled to other dinsions…”

The Shu Gongye master stroked his beard: “As for why they left their legacy? Cough cough, it’s not because they were kind-hearted, but because they couldn’t handle the Epoch Disasters themselves, so they had to pin their hopes on future generations, haha.”

“They couldn’t handle it themselves; what makes them think we can?” Lu Yuan couldn’t help but ask.

He pointed to the sky: “No no no, that’s different. You know, the Pangu Continent is subject to the Epoch theory. This Epoch’s protagonists are you; you can utilize Luck and create Legends.”

“When the next Epoch cos, you won’t be the main characters anymore… You will be the ones abandoned!”

“Just like us old things, no longer favored by the world, we have to rely on our abilities or mooch so Luck from other civilizations. Tsk!”

“Why is it like that?”

“How should I know?!” Shu Gongye said indignantly.

“Then what are the Gods?” The curiosity of the Underground Alliance was actually the sa as that of humans.

Especially the Minotaur, who asked anything that ca to mind.

“Don’t know!”

Several Ratn were still studying the Legendary puppets Lu Yuan had tinkered with, having yet to understand the principles behind them—forging Legends without Inspiration, what kind of concept is that?

“Could this guy have quietly forged Immortality?” A few Ratn secretly discussed among themselves.

“Maybe he has crafted a Myth?”

“Nonsense! Don’t talk rubbish! Myths are another domain altogether.”

Unable to outdo humans, they could only vent on the Underground Alliance; Shu Gongye looked at “Farr No.1” hopping about incessantly and lost his appetite: “Well, we Rat Artisans of Shu Miba also have a little wealth, how about we gamble with the Underground Alliance?”

“Just a small wager, 5 Spirit Essences, not involving anything else, exchanging technical skills is also a good thing.”

“Great, let also make so small profit.” Lu Yuan ran over to join in on the fun.

“Who’s gambling with you! Get lost!” For so reason, Shu Gongye really disliked Lu Yuan—everyone knows you have great potential, but you’ve already realized it so quickly, it’s really sour grapes for us guys!

Thus, this miraculous gambling duel turned into the highlight of the late night.

And beca a topic of lively discussion for the crowd after als.

…

As for who won or lost?

Lu Yuan couldn’t care less; he wasn’t competing himself, and after the banquet was over, he took his girl and left in a hurry.

The Little Mirage Dragon and Old Wolf followed this sneaky couple around, suspecting they might be up to sothing improper.

Unexpectedly, the two were really just holding hands and strolling down the streets, indulging in the romance, much to the disgust of the dragon and the wolf.

“How shallow can you be! We are in a relationship of the spirit.” After discovering their intentions, Lu Yuan imdiately chased the two creatures away.

The familiar Sky City was still bustling, the children in the school campus had grown another year older; Lu Yuan had so spare change in his pocket, but for the ti being, he didn’t have any particularly special gifts to make, and surely he couldn’t give away those vitality-boosting mushrooms.

He could only give away so Underground Alliance local specialties: Black Steel dal! (a type of souvenir)

After playing with the children for a while, he shared so knowledge about Cracks, and discussed various unusual insects, puzzling the children.

Starting tomorrow, he would continue to work at the school and cultivate the next generation.

Actually, this task was quite joyful; interacting with the young made him feel as if he too was forever young.

“No, I am actually still young.”

After leaving the school, Lu Yuan took Miss Conch to visit other key locations.

The Deford Ghost was still locked in a cage, showing a fierce and nacing deanor upon seeing humans.

However, the human team had successfully taken over from the Conch, and managed the long-term imprisonnt.

And the flying saucer containing [Deford Ghost] was also moved into a newly established large laboratory.

This large laboratory could practically be described as a “Battle Fortress”!

The walls alone are 5 ters thick, representing the most luxurious and dangerous experint for humans, known as the “High-Risk Level Supernatural Research Center”.

The walls are etched with nurous engravings, boasting astonishing defense capabilities, and could remain undamaged even under a nuclear attack.

It is clearly not open to the public.

Another formidable entity, [Devil·Painted Skin], is still detained in the Green Space… with a research team of over three thousand people responsible for the study of [Spirit Rune] technology, which is also a main research direction.

As for [Blood Ghost], theoretically, the seal by the “Greedy Demon God” could hold for a long ti after it was resealed.

As for the corpse of [Demon·Shadow Illumination]… it’s still preserved with no research progress for the ti being.

After checking all the major security risks, Lu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief—Green Grass City is truly a place filled with hidden dangers.

“Nothing special happened recently, right?”

Sister Conch, a bit reserved, beat around the bush, “Just routine developnt…”

Ever since Lu Yuan returned ho, the smile in her eyes was almost overflowing; her plump cheeks looked quite adorable and also carried a shy, timid sentint.

Although she’s now a wife, she still has a girlish heart, enjoys playing around, and wishes to add so romance.

In short, behind the scenes, she already secretly buffed Lu Yuan with various boosts!

Lu Yuan’s all energies started boiling within him, his eyes scanning around with an aggressive gaze.

Conch has always been high offense, low defense, and her heartbeat quickened dramatically, her whole body tensed up, “Why are you looking at like that?”

“You seem to have gained weight.”

“Ah?!” She glared fiercely, “How is that possible! I exercise every day… and I have Divine Skills…”

“Miss Maid, I’ll only know if you’ve gained weight by holding you.”

The girl, realizing his plot, said grudgingly, “That… won’t do, I’ve gained weight now! I don’t want you to know this fact!”

Lu Yuan imdiately pounced, “Can a maid refuse her master?”

Conch dodged nimbly, and the two began frolicking in a secluded corner.

Green Grass People naturally have a very long lifespan, and with her body transford by the Mother Worm, there were no signs of change over the years. Instead, love’s nourishnt made her seem like a blooming, charming, and radiant beauty.

Lu Yuan always felt her big eyes were full of charm, and her scent was sweet—wondering if it’s because of the renewed passion after a small separation.

She tapped her forehead cutely, “Wait, stop ssing around, I just rembered sothing important!”

“We might need to restore so of [Devil·Painted Skin]’s power to create stronger Spirit Runes.”

“The current high-power runes have reached their limit, but still fall short of nuclear weapons. The main reason is that [Devil·Painted Skin] is still weak and can’t utilize more potent Spirit Words.”

Lu Yuan reluctantly followed her and visited the latest products in the high-risk laboratory.

Spirit Runes are not only about talisman paper; they can be used to manufacture shells, and also serve as productive and… defensive power!

Especially one type of Spirit Word that can generate a large Light Screen to block external attacks.

Back then, when humans were at the Source Fire Civilization Relics and a super volcano erupted, Sister Conch used this kind of “Spirit Word” to protect the Sky Fortress while it fled, shielding it from the lava.

The Spirit Words of [Painted Skin] are much stronger than Conch’s, and that Light Screen capability might even protect half a city, truly a covetable power!

Such noble defensive capability, wow!

“If it recovers, even just a little bit, Green Grass Paradise might not be able to hold it; that would be quite troubleso…”

“Hmph, it’s still up to your husband to settle this matter once and for all,” Lu Yuan declared confidently in front of the girl, patting his chest.

“Control?”

Lu Yuan, with fifteen thousand in hand, was eager to try, “Hmm… this damned creature, I’ve wanted to control it for a while now.”

“But can you really control it? That’s a… Catastrophe Level Anomaly, won’t there be spirit backlash?” Conch was sowhat worried.

“No, it won’t. Even if it fails, it’s just a loss of so money; we can afford that now,” Lu Yuan sighed lightly.

Theoretically, [Monsters] can be controlled, which is known information. But when the Strange Ancient People used to control [Monsters], they made a huge spectacle using certain formations and sacrificed a massive number of people.

Since the situations of the “Four Great Calamities” differ, so Lu Yuan is not entirely confident either.

Moreover, Lu Yuan’s “control” is actually not exactly above-board, and he could not possibly sacrifice a large population, only relying on his personal wealth to forcefully resist.

Truthfully, Lu Yuan was feeling the pinch. He didn’t know if his 15,000 Spirit Essence would be enough. Theoretically, it’s quite a substantial amount… really substantial, enough to fill a hole with 15,000 masters of 18 Godhood points!

Anyway, in front of the girl, he could only play the part of a generous spender.

“Open up Green Grass Paradise! This king will severely whip that monster.”
