I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

Chapter 164 - 135: Can Other People Be Taken Out of the Safe Zone?



The information shared tonight was indeed a bit too much.

Catastrophe level anomalies, like heartless mountains loomed large.

Even hearing a smidgen of information about them was enough to feel their invisible pressure and intimidation.

What’s more terrifying is that civilizations can’t trust each other.

Even within a civilization, it could collapse on itself.

"Control" abilities, "Sealing" abilities, and other unknown abilities...

These nuclear bomb level "Divine Skills" possess the power to overturn civilizations, completely beyond people’s mental expectations.

How to make these people play to their strengths?

This indeed was a silent pressure.

Seeing everyone deep in thought, Lu Yuan sighed softly; he had shared almost all the information he intended to.

What’s left can only depend on humans themselves!

"So that’s that, I’ll trouble you all to care a bit more. I don’t want to come back home to ruins!"

In the following time, he handed the communicator over to Old Cat.

Letting Old Cat exchange scientific papers with the scientists over there.

After listening for half the night, Lu Yuan couldn’t understand a thing and just yawned, then he went ahead and slept deeply. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

An evening passed by quickly, Old Cat was practically ecstatic, chattering all night!

When seeing men, it seriously chatted.

When seeing beautiful women, it would "meow" at them.

As an endearing Orange Cat, it caught the eyes of all the pretty girls.

Lu Yuan, feeling restless, wondered what was going on. Why does no one love me? Do you all only love cats?

As dawn approached, Old Cat ended the video call with great satisfaction.

"Your sister has the potential to become the Holy King!"

"For the chance to be petted by her, I’d also make sure you get back to your homeland. Meow!"

This damn cat is so cheap, always acting up.

"Her classmate, Miss Han Yue, has very clear secondary sexual characteristics, you’ve been staring at her chest, so it seems you like her quite a bit."

"Although she’s only 18, and there’s a bit of an age difference, don’t be discouraged, you can pursue her."

Lu Yuan, with dark circles under his eyes from too much excitement and not sleeping well, bounced up upon hearing Old Cat’s nonsense: "What do you mean ’a bit of an age difference,’ I’m only 5 years older than my sister!"

"That was in the past, comrade."

Old Cat said gravely, "Now it’s more than a decade, and in the future, it will be hundreds or even a thousand years."

Lu Yuan’s forehead veins throbbed: "What’s wrong with looking at a beautiful woman? And, can you stop mentioning ’secondary sexual characteristics’? It only makes you sound lecherous."

Old Cat: "I can’t, I’m just an alien cat. I have over a hundred genders, I’ll say whatever I want."

Lu Yuan, irritated to the point of itching for action, swiftly decapitated it with a knife.

The head on the ground, Old Cat: "Meow~ He’s abusing the Orange Cat!"

In the end, as much as it pained him, Lu Yuan had no choice but to return the metal ball back to the Rize Civilization...

Lu Yuan had thought about just pocketing the thing; after all, he had the ability of Storage Space – just put the metal ball into the Storage Space and run away.

Escape the Safe Zone, and those Rize people wouldn’t be able to catch up!

Ultimately, he still didn’t do something so morally corrupt.

On the one hand, it’s very hard for civilizations to form friendships.

In a terrible world where even the "Divine Skills" could be plundered from one another, only when both sides are weak can they meet and have the chance to become friends.

Two very powerful civilizations met, and it really wasn’t likely for them to trust each other.

When one was strong and the other weak, they would only plunder one another.

Therefore, Lu Yuan ultimately rejected this slight temptation.

On the other hand, there were some of his war companions here, namely those Rize people who were in comas.

Without them bringing in bombs, Lu Yuan couldn’t have defeated the "Monster".

Out of this bit of camaraderie, he couldn’t be too heartless...

So after returning the Communicator, he took the opportunity to visit the quarantine center to see his former companions.

These nearly three hundred people were all lying on hospital beds.

Their bodies were covered in eyes, occasionally twitching, with a sort of nutrient device attached to their arms, akin to an IV drip.

The six who had fought alongside Lu Yuan were also in comas.

"Still no way to wake up?"

Lu Yuan glanced at Eagle Eye, then at Tado.

Those wide-open eyes seemed void of consciousness, lacking any focus, like those of someone in a vegetative state,

A Rize Civilization medical professor said, "These extra eyes are linked to the Monster’s main body. Now that the Monster is dead, they’ve lost their central control."

"Fortunately, their souls and brains are still intact, just in a sleeping state... As for whether they can wake up, we’re still trying to find a way."

"Can these extra eyes be removed?"

"Unfortunately, with our current level of biological technology, solving the mutations brought about by the Monster is still too difficult," the professor sighed deeply.

Lu Yuan thought for a moment. Although he had many methods, he was powerless in the face of this situation.

"Mr. Lu, can you take the others out of the Safe Zone?" said Governor Leon, approaching quickly from outside the room.

Leon had contacted his kin through the Communicator.

"Theoretically possible, but there is a very great risk."

"If it fails, everyone will die."

Spatial Teleportation required a tremendous amount of spiritual power.

Lu Yuan could at most wear light clothes; he didn’t even dare to wear armor.

If he had to carry a 50-kilogram living being, the consumption of spiritual power would increase several fold.

Besides, the moment of Instant Teleportation, fusing with the air could be unbearable for ordinary people.

Lu Yuan knew when he would Instant Teleport and could brace himself; carrying someone who was completely unprepared, obviously a higher level of strength was needed to endure large amounts of air entering the lungs, blood vessels, and even the brain!

This was also the main reason why Old Wolf hadn’t entered the Safe Zone.

"So, our soldiers can’t get out..."

Leon was obviously disappointed and hesitated to speak.

"Please speak up. If it will help them wake up, I’m still willing to contribute something."

Leon hesitated for a few seconds and then slowly said, "In other cities, there are some Ability users who might be useful."

"One of them has the Ability to ’awaken’ even those in vegetative states, as long as the brain is intact, he can awaken them."

"That Awakening Ability user, even if he can’t cross the Safe Zone, his blood still has a certain effect... so we hope..."

"There is also a tree, the fruit of which can repair the soul."

"These two things are both in our first civilization branch."

Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up; he didn’t mind, it was just a bit of running around after all.

(Some readers might not like to read about the internal development of Humans, but there’s no helping it, this storyline still needs to be written. Apologies to those who dislike it.)

(Lastly, a humble request for Monthly Tickets QAQ)
