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

"What... what is this?!"

Guo Weiqiang’s eyes widened as he exclaimed in shock.

Their worldview was shaken; they just stared dumbfounded at the countless machines and vines.

Lu Yuan calmed his mind and explained, "Everyone, this should be a production room... it should be for producing cars. Do you see those scrapped cars outside?"

"Technological civilization is like this, science can create miracles."

"Whether it’s idealism or materialism, it’s all part of science."

"There’s no need to be surprised. As long as you study hard, you’ll soon understand its mysteries."

"Really... can we?" Guo Weiqiang murmured, curiosity and desire stirring in him for the first time.

"Oh, right, this belongs to Miss Conch, so don’t recklessly damage it."

"Our task from now on will be to inherit the legacy of the Sky City, even if we can repair just one percent of these machines, it will be enough to make us powerful."

Lu Yuan walked up to a machine, touched it lightly, and the rust fell off.

He muttered "What a pity."

"Who knows how many of these assembly line machines can still be used..."

"And right now, there’s also no energy source."

Having a treasure mountain yet not being able to use it felt frustrating.

"Clean up a bit, have some people collect the vines, and don’t tamper with the machines for now."

"Captain Lu, what’s the use of these vines? Even used as firewood, they can’t compare to... oil," Sha Kan’er stumbled over the word "oil."

"Feed the insects," Lu Yuan said seriously.

"Insects... they do eat a lot," Sha Kan suddenly suggested, "Can we tame them to be used like camels? Our camels are almost all dead."

"That should be possible," Lu Yuan paused, "But I think you should break away from some of your existing ways of thinking."

"Like, for example, researching tricycles sooner."

...

...

The legacy of the Sky City truly exceeded all expectations!

It was far richer than the once-great Meida Civilization. @@novelbin@@

Lu Yuan always had this mysterious illusion that "Human Civilization 18" had risen.

In those scrapped countless machines, there must be a few that still worked, right?

Existing city measures, wide roads, complete sewer systems, and ample reserved resources.

And that barely alive Opium poppy... inside it was a virtual world "Green Grass Paradise."

Honestly, if Yunhai City, the "first branch of human civilization," had acquired this inheritance, it might have had a chance to leap to the stars.

In less than 10 years, Yunhai City could have far outstripped its counterparts in development speed, becoming a leader of humanity.

But the reality was, "Human Civilization 18"...

was somewhat weak.

The average educational level of its citizens hadn’t even finished kindergarten.

Being able to write their own names made them intellectuals... Read exclusive adventures at NovelBin.Côm

The population was barely over ten thousand.

In such a situation, it was really... difficult to make good use of this inheritance.

However, Lu Yuan was still quite happy; he led people to explore the city and catalog the resources every day.

And he planned how to revive the Sky City... that was the ultimate goal.

The daily joyful harvest was recorded in a little notebook.

That was the passion of striving.

A long time ago, during the era of the Meida Civilization, his dream was to have enough to eat, then lie flat and idle away with a pack of wolves, just lingering through each day.

Later on, for extraordinary power, he and his companions started a difficult journey.

"Old Wolf’s Diary" was written during that time.

Until now, Lu Yuan had a new dream.

He still pursued extraordinary power.

But there were new attachments.

"If I can drive the Sky City back, humans will definitely be amazed."

With this thought, gradually, Lu Yuan was also willing to take on some responsibility.

Having followers who were somewhat naive, enthusiastic about learning, and who showed him enough respect, what reason did he have to refuse them?

…

As the days swiftly passed, everyone, including Lu Yuan and Old Cat, was busy and fulfilled, with hardly a moment of leisure.

Even the Undying Giant Turtle and Old Wolf were very happy.

They regarded this place as their territory, calling on friends with the female wolves, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

As for Miss Conch, she was temporarily serving as Lu Yuan’s secretary, as someone needed to clearly account for the assets.

Her feelings... were more complicated.

She didn’t mind the occupation of the Sky City, for the once-flourishing civilization was already a thing of the past.

Having never witnessed its prosperity, she didn’t feel much sense of belonging.

For Miss Conch, the biggest trouble was probably...

that she was soon to be born from the Life Fruit!

Once she had a physical body, she could experience this beautiful world, taste delicious food, enjoy the brilliant sunshine, touch the furry Chicken Lady—there were many things in this world worth doing.

But at the threshold, she felt a bit timid.

What if she turned out to be ugly?

What if she wasn’t welcome?!

Even though the Green Grass People generally looked quite beautiful,

occasionally, there were some oddly shaped individuals.

This became her biggest concern, and the closer it got to her birth, the more anxious she felt.

Let’s face it, a girl’s thoughts always have a bit... of whimsy.

…

Thus, four months hurried by.

Lu Yuan gathered his friends for an internal meeting to discuss the next focus of their work.

"The first batch of crops is growing well, and the food crisis is expected to be initially resolved," Old Cat nodded proudly.
