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

Chapter 348: Found an... Egg?



These two had pushed their limits and soon caught the attention of others.

However, everyone just gave a knowing smile, it's just a little squabble, common enough.

In this young society, even the second generation was only fifty years old, and those that followed were even younger.

From the green belt, several curious faces appeared, excitedly watching the argument between the second sister and Lu Ying.

It turned out that the crafty Lu Tiantian was observing her own older sister with their relatives.

The younger sister's eyes sparkled, "It looks like elder sister is really getting married... She's so dominant, poor Brother Eagle, why did he fall for her? Could it be because of her big chest?"

"Let them have a child, and then shut it away in school."

"Come on, at most she'd donate an egg! I thought she could never be in a relationship, but now I see, she still likes handsome guys..." Lu Tiantian unconsciously cursed her own sister under her breath, only to find the atmosphere suddenly fell silent, and her older brother and younger sister were holding back their laughter.

"What are you... talking about?" a grinding female voice emerged, "You're talking about me, aren't you?"

Lu Tiantian jerked up and exclaimed, "Great Commander, fine!"

Sister Lu Ling paused, turned her head to greet but, after all, her dominant nature couldn't possibly apply to the Great Commander.

But she realized she'd been tricked, there was no Great Commander behind her!

Her family members ran away laughing, and she chased after them in anger!

This lively scene, full of life, occurred in various corners of Green City. People's moods are always tied to their social environment; when disaster strikes and overtime becomes routine, there's no room to think about love and romance, creating a somewhat oppressive atmosphere.

But now, with the weather improving and Commander Lu returning, everyone was enjoying the moment's relief.

Perhaps humans as a species are like this, only after suffering can they truly enjoy happiness.

...

The treasure-hunting operation officially began this day!

An epic volcanic eruption brought fire-related minerals from beneath the ground to the surface, making this area unimaginably rich!

Humans then awakened all the Insect Soldiers!

A total of 1500 insects roared and snarled at the edge of Sky City, most of the insects were burrowers, except for producers like the Fungal Blanket Worms, all others were deployed!

As the Insect Soldiers were an independent faction, humans promised that they could devour some extraordinary resources if they found something good.

This was the first cultivation opportunity for the Insect Soldiers, the more they dug, the more they could consume!

Moreover, various excavators and drilling machines were taken out from the warehouses, including the newly developed Large Puppets, all set to dig.

"The first team, responsible for Area A, leads 120 insects and 13 machines. There is a small Fire Source mine there."

"The second team, responsible for investigating Area B, to find more veins."

The treasure-hunting operation's most important feature was human strength... The search team quickly grew to ten thousand people.

Divided into ten large teams, a hundred middle squads. Naturally, this goes without saying, everyone was putting in full effort, holding back no energy!

Especially people like Captain Lu Ying, eager to achieve feats, almost wishing to dig the land three feet deep!

The steaming hot land, desolate, with surface temperatures reaching up to 50-60 degrees Celsius, was like a steam room.

Thunderstorms were frequent, with occasional minor volcanic eruptions and hail.

No one could have imagined that this place was once a vibrant sea.

And nobody could know that there once lay the remnants of a civilization, an old dragon silently guarding...

However, for the members of the Treasure Hunting Team, the recent times were quite enjoyable; in the first month around the Central Volcano, they actually dug up minerals worth 100 Spirit Essences! Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

That reason alone was enough for humans to linger here!

The discovered minerals were mostly of Fire Attribute or Flame Attribute, which humans themselves might not exhaust entirely but could be advantageous in trade with other civilizations.

On this day, it was the first team of the Treasure Hunting Team's day off—everyone was bragging and chattering in their tents.

They were about three hundred kilometers away from Sky City and hadn't been home for several months.

Fortunately, with technology developed now, a phone call or a text message was possible.

"Eagle Team, this huge harvest is surely enough for you to brag in front of the girls, right?"

"Humph, is treasure hunting just for bragging?! This is for ourselves, for all humanity! Don't you guys enjoy this kind of life?" Captain Lu Ying spoke righteously.

"Love it!" all the soldiers shouted. These days really felt like they were on a high, like the Gold Rush on Earth back in the day!

In the room, everyone studied the maps of the surrounding area.

Meanwhile, Lu Ying fiddled with the Jade Pendant given to him by a girl, wondering if he should confirm their relationship back home and start a sweet romance? After all, he was fifty-three this year.

No, now what needed to be done was to complete his mission!

"There are life forms active here... How can we evade these creatures' attacks and extract the resources from the Magma Lake?"

Ten kilometers away, there was a Magma Lake where insect-like life forms thrived near the lake.

Creatures such as Flame Centipedes, Flame Cockroaches, and a stone-like life form dashed over the surface of the magma.
