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

```

"One day, I will return to Human civilization to visit my parents," Lu Yuan affirmed his resolve.

The children picked each day were random, meaning they had to deal with infants of varying temperaments.

Encountering an Angel Baby wasn't too bad.

But with those ceaselessly wailing Demon Babies, even Big Daddy Lu Yuan would run out of patience, struggling in the sea of agony.

He kept reminding himself, "You must be loving, don't let artificial intelligence engrave it in," "I'll endure," "When he's older, I'll give him a beating."

On the other hand, Conch Mother, who was inherently gentle, and with Lu Yuan doing most of the work, was all smiles every day.

Indeed, she treated this daunting task as a form of entertainment!

Even in the office, her singing could be heard: "We are the flowers of the motherland~ Singing joyfully under the sun..."

Her days were filled with happiness.

[Happiness +1+1]

...

Eventually, Lu Yuan brought Old Wolf and the Undying Giant Turtle, his two buddies, into the Virtual World as part of the family environment.

It was only Old Cat who, lacking a soul, couldn't enter the Virtual World, so Lu Yuan created a big yellow cat to take its place.

The Undying Giant Turtle became a drudge, starting to mix baby formula.

Believe it or not, it even dutifully tested the temperature by dropping a bit of milk onto its paw before feeding (although it wasn't necessary in the Virtual World).

It gradually took over the cleaning duties too.

As the data continuously increased, artificial intelligence also gradually activated, simulating similar scenarios.

Almost all the children could feel this magical family combination, believing themselves to be members of the household.

...

On this day, basking in the sunlight by the window, stroking a fluffy dog, and sipping a cup of clear tea, Lu Yuan suddenly expressed a life reflection, "Ah, I'm starting to have trouble distinguishing between reality and fantasy... It's no wonder the Green Grass People are slowly getting accustomed to the Green Grass Paradise and even willing to have the entire nation enter it."

"Give daddy a hug quickly!" Conch placed a little girl on Lu Yuan's neck.

"She's developing so well, only six months old and already able to sit up."

"Six months is about the right time to sit up."

Lu Yuan kept lifting the child up, eliciting "giggles" of laughter from the little one.

As soon as he stopped, those round eyes looked up expectantly again, the cunning little one always wanting her father to lift her high.

Conch sat down beside him, "It's just a bit exhausting for a while, but once they start daycare, there's less and less for us to do."

"We only need to sporadically check on them, with teachers taking over more and more as time goes by."

"And once they get to kindergarten, as school education becomes more prominent, we'll hardly see them anymore, and they will slowly leave this period behind with just some simple memories."

As Lu Yuan played with the little girl, he mused, "Yeah... When they're old enough to understand, I'm going to educate them seriously. I want them to be exposed to Engravings from a young age, and when they're a bit older, even bring in a few Worm Kings for them to play with."

"Do you intend to promote this type of education?"

Lu Yuan shook his head, "I'm not too certain, for now... it's only for this generation."

"Later generations would be better off forming families naturally. Over time, I feel my mental state can't take it."

Lu Yuan realized he was actually a Conservative.

He was just one person, yet there were so many children.

He was randomly entering some child's Virtual World.

The rest were being raised by artificial intelligence mimicking him.

Humans have their developmental phases; without the Green Grass Civilization's productive forces and ideology, no one can say whether this peculiar social nurturing mechanism is right or wrong.

The current Human beings are also quite clueless, messing around here without understanding anything.

Once they're not so clueless anymore, the opposition will likely grow stronger—Lu Yuan himself was somewhat opposed to it.

It's just that there is no better solution for now, this is a last resort.

On the other hand, pretending to be real can lead to mental confusion over time, blurring the line between reality and fiction.

Raising children generates affection, even though their names are unknown and change every day.

```

But having held them in my arms, having personally fed them for a while, there's inevitably something different about it.

Unconsciously, I began to place even greater expectations on them.

What's more terrifying is that after spending so much time with Conch Girl, we already had a mutual liking for each other, playing and squabbling like a model couple, and the difficulty of resisting desire is exponentially increasing!

Lu Yuan found himself teetering on the edge of the terrifying abyss of "throwing her down" almost every day.

Then he would snap back to his senses, realizing he still had to hold back for now...

Eternal Spark, suppress!

Otherwise, her mother will come charging over and bite off my head!

"Has your Mind Control weakened at all? The moment it does, you'll have to quit forcibly! I'm enough on my own!"

"Not! At! All! Because I'm in such a good mood, it's actually become a bit stronger," the girl said with a beaming smile, directly hooking her arm into Lu Yuan's.

Lu Yuan immediately shook her off, pretending to be all serious, "Really? After we go out, I'll need to test it out, just in case you're up to no good, moving hands and feet around."

"Hmph, test all you want!"

·

In the end, the test results showed that Conch's "Mind Control" ability had indeed become stronger...

Not just a little, but quite noticeably!

Lu Yuan started to doubt life itself, could the weight of "happiness" be so high?

...

Of course, raising children doesn't require you to be by their side 24 hours a day.

They have their sleeping time, which allows for some free activity.

The Undying Giant Turtle and Old Wolf, although not particularly good at soothing children, wouldn't have any issue accompanying them for a nap, which meant that Lu Yuan had some time for work in the real world too.

That day, the first-ever Green Grass Town council was officially in session!

Apart from Lu Yuan himself, Conch and Old Cat were also members of the council, having certain voting rights.

Additionally, he had selected "Super-thinker" Desert from among the crowd.

"Rune Reader" Guo Weiqiang.

The former Soldier captain Sha Kan'er.

And a young woman with healing abilities, very hardworking and diligent, known as "Du Fuyu," the best doctor they currently had...

A total of 26 people, encompassing a variety of talents from all walks of life, forming the main framework of this little government.

Even the old man "Sha Sanli" was part of the team.

There was no choice, this old guy was one of the most forward-thinking of the older generation, always trying to learn and keep up with the times, no easy feat.

Plus, the guy did have some ability, accomplished some practical things, so Lu Yuan decided to include him.

He cleared his throat, "Comrades, as everyone can see, the massive childcare plan takes up most of my time."

"In the coming years, I won't have the energy to do other work."

"Therefore, a functioning government has become an urgent necessity."

"This meeting is Green Grass Town's first highest-level conference. All current council members have been appointed by me, which is just a temporary measure. We must develop a habit of democratic oversight, where the capable rise and the mediocre fall, breaking through the rigid class structure."

Everyone sat around a large round table for several hours, designated the specific statutes, and put their prints on it.

Lu Yuan didn't know how normal civilizations did this, but for now, it would have to do.

"For the first council, I'm not going to bother with voting, and will directly appoint the officers of various departments."

"For the technology group, Comrade Desert will serve as the leader."

"For the engineering group, Guo Weiqiang will be the leader."

"For the medical health group..."

Lu Yuan announced a series of names, and with that very ordinary approach, the first government of Green Grass Town was established.

With the addition of Empire Survivors, there were actually better candidates for some positions.

But the people on the list were all meritorious servants, so their priority promotion was normal. As for the rest, even if their abilities were higher, they'd have to start from the ground up and slowly work their way upward.
