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

Chapter 349: Humans Plunge Into Revelry!



Its surface had complex cloud-like patterns, and its volume was astonishing!

It was two meters in diameter and likely weighed up to a ton!

"Holy shit, what is this?!"

Everyone was shocked to the extreme. What happened to that dragon corpse they were promised?

"Could it still be capable of hatching?" Lu Ying activated the "Treasure Hunting Eye" and sensed strong life force emanating from the egg.

Such a significant event was naturally not something this small elite team could handle; they discussed nervously for a long time and did not dare to act recklessly.

What if they broke the ice and the outside heat killed the egg?

They quickly returned to the camp and called to report the situation to the government of Green City.

"What? An egg!" Guo Dafeng made the call, and Lu Yuan, who was crazily studying the "Puppets," was also stunned.

"Great Commander, that egg is near the magma, which is a bit dangerous."

"We really can't handle this thing. We need urgent support, and it'd be best to dispatch Sky Fortress and Leviathan-level, high temperature resistant insect soldiers."

A strong sense of joy surged in him.

"Good heavens! Did it really undergo Nirvana? How did it manage that?!"

Lu Yuan felt somewhat conflicted. There are no two identical leaves in the world, even if it was reborn, it wouldn't be its past self...

But he soon cast these philosophical thoughts aside and shared the news with Miss Conch in the next room.

Miss Conch was thrilled beyond measure, even bursting into tears, and couldn't help herself from giving Lu Yuan a peck.

"Cough, cough, Madam, please comport yourself; this is a public place, isn't this a bit unseemly?" Lu Yuan, still dizzy from the reward, said.

He cheerfully dialed his communicator.

"Sky Fortress... working in Sector C? Temporarily reassign it here, there's a big situation... Okay, good, help communicate with the staff there, it's an emergency that needs urgent attention."

"Sector D... summons Leviathan and three Worm Kings!"

"We... depart immediately!"

Once everyone was gathered, Sky Fortress embarked majestically with the group.

The corresponding rescue was not too troublesome. Although the insect soldiers were a bit slow, they were resistant to both heat and cold. As long as they didn't fall into the magma, excavating ice from the cliffs wasn't a problem.

And the mineral resources in the volcanic crater were astonishingly abundant.

"How can there be so many? Other volcanoes don't have this many minerals!" Many scientists expressed their sincere doubts.

Before the volcanic eruption, there weren't so many minerals; it was really strange—the only explanation was Qi Fortune. This volcano had changed the Ninth Epoch's Qi Fortune.

"So much Spirit Essence, so much!" The Greedy Demon God, deep inside, was itching to act but it was a shame, as the vein had already been discovered by humans, and it couldn't openly embezzle.

When the large block of ice containing the egg was extracted, the scene erupted into ecstatic cheers!

A wave of engineers excitedly discussed: "Is it the one?"

"In such a scorching place... it must be."

"Don't rush. Let's wait for it to hatch."

"We need to find a way to mine."

The egg's surface had exquisite dragon patterns, appeared golden, and was very beautiful. A cold aura gradually filled the air.

Once it was removed from the dangerous high temperature environment, the thick layer of ice on its surface quickly melted, confirming it could sense the external environment and was indeed alive.

Lu Yuan took a closer look.

"[Unhatched Unknown Phenomenon·Oviparous State.]"

"[Each Epoch, due to intense fluctuations in Qi Fortune, new anomalies emerge.]"

"[But some anomalies, due to certain innate factors, remain in an oviparous state. If placed in a quiet location with abundant vitality, the hatching speed will accelerate.]"

"[Current life activity: High.]"

"[Hatching success rate: High.]"

"[Extraordinary Level: Level 1.]"

He sighed lightly: "This is a Phenomenon Egg, we can't take it lightly before it fully hatches."

"Bring it back, place it near the Tree of Life at Green Mountain. The Tree of Life will protect it."

Guo Dafeng asked, "Should we make this information public?"

Lu Yuan thought for a moment. Publicizing the news seemed harmless and might even boost societal vitality.

Thus, a few hours later, this Phenomenon Egg was transported back to Sky City. Countless reporters looked up at the Sky Fortress, eager to interview the discoverers of the egg.

Alright, Lu Yuan certainly wouldn't accept an interview, he wasn't the discoverer... so he pushed the exploration team in front of the TV crew.

"We discovered it... yes, it's very resilient; it has survived in the magma for many years."

"Yes, the crater also has a lot of minerals, perhaps it's a gift left for us."

This event truly sparked a national sensation and jubilation!

Humans had survived the disaster and were reborn in the cold winter. They would become even stronger in the future!

And it, did it really achieve Nirvana?

Well, no one knows what this egg actually is yet, but many are already certain it is.

Is there anything more beautiful in the world?

The so-called fate is really subtle. The dissipating life, though scattered like clouds and smoke, under the protection of various factors, is harmonized by yin and yang, and the spirit energy coalesces into shape, a new life gradually revives in another era.

Years later, experts analyzed the reason for its Nirvana: it was essentially a large fluctuation in Qi Fortune that gave it a powerful boost.

Yes, the delayed eruption of the volcano, "God's" misjudgment, the misjudgments of the great civilizations, leaving the Safe Zone too early, this chain reaction caused a strong fluctuation in the Qi Fortune of the entire Ninth Epoch!

Under this overwhelming fluctuation of Qi Fortune, a vast amount of Ideal Energy was generated, allowing it to successfully achieve Nirvana—otherwise, under normal circumstances, how easy could a Phenomenon so easily die and be reborn? What a Pangu joke!

Of course, those ores were also brought about by the fluctuation of Qi Fortune...

Many people directly wanted to touch this egg fervently, after all, they had indeed spent some time with the "Mirage Cloud Dragon"!

That old dragon, they wouldn't forget.

Many relics of the Source Fire Civilization were also displayed in the museum.

Humans... would not forget.

But in this life, the dragon is a brand-new dragon, and the civilization is also a brand-new civilization! It can now protect humanity!

The crowd in the square was too much, hundreds of thousands surged up together, making the noisy scene make Lu Yuan's scalp tingle.

Hundreds of thousands of people, touching it once would rub off a layer of skin off the 2-meter big egg, wouldn't it?

Lu Yuan would absolutely not allow such a dangerous thing to happen!

Of course, to accommodate public sentiment, he still had Leviathan carry the golden egg, guarded by three Worm Kings on the side, displayed for a few hours in the city, to give a satisfactory account.

"Comrades, please let us be patient!"

"We still do not know what this egg is, perhaps it is some kind of insect, or it might be a Phenomenon hostile to humans."

"It must be strictly guarded and allowed to incubate in Green Mountain."

"Letting it be subjected to so much observation and noise is not good."

"Think about it, it's still in a fetal state and cannot handle such a noisy environment. So everyone please disperse, we will strictly guard it. Once it hatches, we will greet you all."

Though the public was extremely fervent, they were reasonable and could only watch helplessly as the egg was sent to Green Mountain.

Many were already imagining how to interact with the "Civilization Divine Beast" in the future...

Yes, this new dragon will belong to humanity's 18th civilization in the future.

...

"The heavens are unjust! The heavens are so unjust!"

And the Rat Artisans on the side witnessed the scene, shedding tears of envy and jealousy.

They bitterly complained to each other, "Damn the heavens for letting them find such a large ore vein as well... We of the Shu Mi Dam Civilization also have tens of thousands of Spirit Essence."

"In the end, they got the dragon... a loyal Phenomenon, quite a formidable one at that..."

"The heavens really are unjust!"

They were nearly driven crazy! They started drinking!

Began eating eggs frantically, as if they wanted to eat up all the eggs in Sky City.

Even a Rat Artisan named Shu Baogang, in a complex state of jealousy, erupted with intense inspiration!

[Legendary Masterpiece: Jealousy·Treasure Hunting Puppet.]

[This artwork showcases a powerful robot skilled at treasure hunting and mining. It possesses a body as sharp as a tiger, with sharp eyes and sturdy limbs.]

[Capable of Mind Link with the controller, the stronger the controller's jealousy and competitive spirit, the faster the robot's efficiency in treasure hunting and mining.]

[The piece is filled with a strong classical atmosphere, perfectly describing a jealousy-inducing accident during a journey—someone else picked up trash, but I didn't?]

[Who doesn't like treasures buried underground? Maybe I could also dig up a dragon?]

[Features: fully automated mining, Mind Link, Resistance to harsh environments. (Legendary Level·Artificial Artifact)]

The Rat artisan who created this puppet suddenly grinned ear-to-ear, his luck surged as he squeaked, marveling at his improved craftsmanship, following humans to explore ruins and picking up knowledge indeed had its benefits... In the past, he really couldn't have made such a robot.

Then, the very next moment, he regretted it, wait, isn't this yet again benefiting humans?

Mr. Cat, watching from the side, had his pupils reflecting the firelight: "Elder Shu, is it a success?

"Legendary Masterpiece, how much money, just name it... We rent it for a while, that's not too much, right?"

The Ratman had a mournful face, could he really compete with humans for ores?

He could only rent it out!

Cursing in his heart: "What a cursed thing! Isn't this making the human mining speed faster?"

"The gap between the Qi Fortune of civilizations, why is it so vast!"
