I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 936 - 602: Lu Yuan’s New Wave of Inspiration

After Sky City traveled through space, the first to take action were the observatory, military, and communication station.

Pangu Continent was too large, even though human technology had made great leaps, as long as space technology wasn’t invented, its vastness still felt exaggerated.

However, humans could confirm the exact location as long as they compared existing constellation images.

"The astronomical results are out. We may currently be at the southeast end of Pangu Continent. Many constellations are being seen for the first time."

This fact was truly stunning.

Transferring from the Northern Territory to the southeast at once, this was the legendary "space technology"!

Unfortunately, this kind of space technology is uncontrollable, and even the timing of its activation is difficult to control.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath and issued three orders: "The military should maintain necessary vigilance, strengthen patrols around us, and please ensure there are no safety hazards in our city."

"Dispatch the Insect Soldiers to explore this ocean."

"The communication station should detect radio signals in the air and investigate the surrounding civilizations."

"Understood!"

Drones flew from Sky City out into the world. These drones were generally large, about 10 meters in length, with superior detection capabilities.

And the Insect Clan Army was not to be outdone, swarming out like a hive of hornets, exploring in all directions.

The Insect Clan Army had made significant progress over the years; three Worm Kings had already become Level 16 extraordinary creatures, Leviathan was a bit behind, reaching Level 15—Lu Yuan could proudly tell the mother of the Conch, "They were by no means neglected!"

However, the quantity did not increase significantly, remaining around 120,000. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Report to Command, everything is normal."

"No electromagnetic signals found."

"Marine species normal, with sightings of dolphin species, orcas, squids, and sea lions..."

Lu Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief; the normal biological classes indicated that this area was likely safe.

Then, he heard waves of youthful cheers coming from the small cave.

"Pangu Continent, here we come!"

"Look, a massive ocean!"

Even though the new generation of boys and girls were terrified by a [Ghost] last night, they were all filled with great expectations for the future, and having enthusiasm is always a good thing.

Especially since the new generation had never seen a real ocean before, their curiosity was instantly sparked.

The Northern Territory’s ocean was completely frozen, with only some cold-water fish active at the bottom.

But the ocean here truly resembled a blue gemstone, teeming with life.

Sunlight shimmered on the rippling surface of the sea, like countless fragments of gold leaping; one could vaguely see some marine life frolicking in the water, like silhouettes in a dream. Seagulls hovered in the air, occasionally diving into the water, then soaring high, emitting crisp calls, adding a touch of vitality to this blue world.

Next to Lu Yuan, several scientists were organizing the star images, and a young expert said: "We now seem to be further away from the Human Mother Civilization. If this continues, this journey really seems endless. Oh, by the way, according to star calculations, did we just jump 12 billion kilometers from north to south? Did I miscalculate?"

He was simply astonished—12 billion kilometers, even at supersonic speed, would take uninterrupted 559 years!

An older professor beside him said: "No miscalculation, but you seem to have ignored the curvature; if Pangu Continent is spherical, the distance you calculated will show a huge deviation."

"How do you prove there’s curvature here? It might actually be flat? 12 billion kilometers, oh, returning to the Mother Civilization is incredibly difficult."

"Young man, be patient. We, a mere third-level civilization, only join forces with others for safety when returning to the Mother Civilization. Once we’re successful and become a Level 5 Civilization, we’ll traverse 12 billion kilometers in an instant."

"Makes sense, we’re too inexperienced."

Lu Yuan overheard this conversation, sweat forming on his forehead.

Information from various sources was quickly gathered at the command center.

"The depth of this ocean is about 200 meters, with a rich variety of life."

The leader of the engineering department, Professor Desert, proposed a suggestion: "Our city can enter a drifting mode to facilitate our search for seafloor minerals."

"Throughout the year, we can at least dig up dozens of spirit rhymes."

Everyone else couldn’t help but laugh.

The National Treasury already stored 35,000 spirit rhymes worth of minerals; in comparison, salvaging single-digit spirit rhymes from the seabed in a month was really just a few meager gains.

But for a civilization, exhaust the stockpiles and you’ll starve!

Even mosquito legs are meat!

Moreover, these actions reminded the older generation of those times of hard struggle in the past...

Treasure Hunting Eye·Lu Ying, Colonel, said enthusiastically: "We cannot abandon traditional craftsmanship, I, Lu Ying, still prefer treasure hunting to continuous trading."

For years, he had been piloting a Floating Fortress, shuttling along various commercial trade routes, to his growing boredom.

"Eagle Team, your Treasure Eye may not necessarily match the current [Sigma Detector]" another scientist joked.

"Haha, instruments definitely have limits, but humans are limitless!" Lu Ying’s eyes lit up, "You don’t understand this joy, it’s just like fishing, how joyful treasure hunting is."

However, deep down inside, there was a faint sense of sadness.

Not because his skills were being gradually replaced, but because... comparing past and present, the rapid pace of development was like a dream.

"Starting today, the treasure hunting contest is officially on!"
