Chapter 535 Ancient Tortoise: Who are you? I am the number one investor in the peak civilization!


    Countless kilometers away, near a spacious underground crack.


    Black smoke surrounds and gears roar.


    Hundreds of thousands of machine puppets are working hard, and are constantly transporting wood, coal and other materials to the warehouse.


    The mechanical core of these puppets also have the shadow of Yuanhuo Civilization Technology, which naturally played a major role in human beings'' trading past knowledge.


    Since Green City embarked on a new journey, the Underground Alliance has grown at an unprecedented speed, and now it has basically digested the technology of human transactions.


    "I announce that the first trial of the Underground Alliance Sky City has officially begun!"


    With a command, the entire ground trembled slightly, and the city "boomed" and slowly rose like a hot air balloon.


    "Report to the Governor! The city''s operating status is normal."


    “All generator sets are normal!”


    "The current height is 300 meters...500 meters...1000 meters."


    "I announced that the first trial voyage will be perfect. The Sky City will maintain an altitude of 3,000 meters for about a month."


    As soon as this order was issued, both the residents on the ground and in the city burst into loud cheers.


    “We succeeded!”


    The faces of these 12 races are filled with rich smiles.


    The bright sun shines on their faces. Over the years, they have gradually become accustomed to life on the surface.


    The small cave of the Underground Alliance has been moved to the city on the surface.


    After this trial voyage, it means that the "underground alliance" has the ability to travel with the entire city.


    Now, the only thing I lack is a little bit of determination - the determination to leave this rich place and go to the distance.


    "I don''t know, are there any new opportunities for human friends? It''s been a long time since we contacted each other." The civilized leaders of the Underground Alliance had subtle joy on their faces.


    They have never used the branches of the poppy tree left by Lu Yuan before. It takes a lot of spiritual charm to connect with each other, but you still have to save some attention. Everyone understands this principle.


    The ancient insect jumped out of the soil and suppressed these arrogant guys. How much more did you achieve? Just so proud?


    "Human civilization naturally rises in adversity. Opportunities are always proportional to risks, and growing in crises is the theme of the times."


    "How long do you need to stay near the crack?"


    It secretly thought, if you know that humans may be destroyed when they encounter [ghosts], wouldn’t they be scared to hide here for the rest of their lives?


    Inappropriate, inappropriate!


    But unexpectedly, as it just started to suppress, these high-level civilized leaders had already begun to retreat.


    The squinting clan led by the leader twisted his body''s touch and said guiltily: "What the Lord Guzhe said is... Our current combat power is still not as good as that of humans. We will continue to develop military force here for a hundred years."


    "As long as we are stronger than humans, we will definitely set off!"


    The ancient worm almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and I wish I could swallow these guys in one bite!


    But it seems that there is a little reason.


    It turned its head and saw the scene of the people boiling, and sighed slightly in its heart.


    "Although the underground alliance has been refusing to leave here, there is only one shortcoming."


    "Sometimes when you think about it, it''s not that bad. At least they are still working hard, and more civilizations are still spinning in place... It''s better to be safe!"


    "As long as we can use ''Yun'', our underground alliance will be a serious third-level civilization."


    Thinking of this way, it has a sense of joy of harvest.


    Of course, the underground alliance does not have much "luck".


    Most of them are used to expand the small cave heaven, and some are embezzled by ancient insects to treat blight.


    In addition to the 900 points of fortune traded by Lu Yuan, it only has a little over 1,000, which can only be considered a small value.


    "It really doesn''t work, I''ll give them a little luck."


    "At least give them the opportunity to do experiments."


    "Ahem... Let me ask you, do you have any ideas about the technology of level 3 civilization?"


    "Report to you, sir, we do not have the foundation of human beings, so we cannot study spiritual language technology like human beings."


    "But large-scale glyph combinations such as harvest blessings can still be developed. There is little progress at present."


    “It’s done well, keep it going.”


    It used its strong forelimbs to touch its horns... Well, it has probably grown, but it is just a good person with no combat power.


    After all, insects also need face. Without this sacred horn, they can''t raise their heads in front of the underground alliance.


    "When my horns grow, I''ll give you the technology to study the third-level civilization. It''s not bad..."


    Thinking of this, the ancient insects became vaguely worried about humans. I wonder how Lu Yuan was doing and whether he had escaped the [ghost] crisis?


    "Humans are really a group of troublesome goods... I die in a different space, and I can''t make any inheritance. I''m sorry, I even sold my horns."


    "I had known that I would have left all the horns and [Immortal Palace] to the Underground Alliance..."


    The myth as huge as a mountain·Ancient insects, I feel a little regretful in my heart.


    That is the valuable legacy left by the gear civilization. Could it be that it was screwed up by itself?


    Although humans have a deep fortune, how can they like the underground alliance they cultivated by themselves?


    Look at these lizardman, tauren, and dark steel man, which one is not a good player?


    Why did you suddenly get the lard in your heart and send out the best thing? !


    The more you think about the ancient insect, the more annoyed you become.


    At this moment, it felt the immortal palace in its body tremble, and its heart suddenly moved: "It seems that human beings are still alive, I must knock on that boy to make him more cautious,"


    "If it really doesn''t work, let him return the Immortal Palace to me before he dies."


    The huge figure of the ancient insect slowly appeared in the huge immortal palace.


    Although it is still powerful, it is not the original body itself. It has shrunk from the size of a mountain to the level of a large truck, and it always feels that it lacks a little momentum.


    Strangely, in addition to Lu Yuan''s huge giant, there were six strange creatures standing opposite the table.


    What''s going on? Have you already had guests?


    "Your Excellency of Ancient Insects, we''re meeting for the first time." The Crystal Man said calmly, "We are the alien group who stayed at the warping point of Pangu Delta."


    The ancient worm was puzzled, who are you?


    Do I know you?


    Lu Yuan said: "Your Ancient Insects, these people are the old seniors I met in that city with [Ghosts]. You may have the same purpose."


    Same purpose? !


    The ancient insect made a sudden enlightenment look and became eager to try: "So that''s it! Lu Yuan, are you going to explain your own legacy?"


    "I don''t care about the rest for now. Life and death are fate, and wealth and honor are in heaven."


    "You are dead, I can''t let you go for other inheritance."


    "But Immortal Palace, you must return it to me. This thing is a contraband and must be handed over to a civilization with potential. If you are a strange man, don''t get involved in this kind of thing, there is no civilization behind you."


    Lu Yuan was speechless: "Why should I give it to you?"


    "The Immortal Palace can teleport itself! The premise is that there are no creatures inside! Hurry up, you are dying, and you will also transfer the civilization points to me."


    You can''t lie in this place, you''re still thinking about it. Damn, Lu Yuan was sweating profusely.


    The strange people looked at me, I looked at you, and then looked at Lu Yuan. You old friend seemed to be not very smart. "Ahem, isn''t this still alive? We have found a way to deal with [ghosts], so you don''t have to worry about it for the time being."


    "Our common purpose is to deal with the disaster of the era!"


    The ancient insect suddenly smashed the mouth, a little embarrassed.


    You are so tall and outstanding that I am completely out of character.


    Suddenly, its fake "horns" were raised higher, as if this posture could push back its shape.


    The crystal man touched it from his arms for a long time and took out a bottle of the same size as an eye drop: "Old Ancient Worm, I seem to have heard of you... Are you a parasite on the body of the Demon Myth?"


    The ancient insect snorted coldly, "So what''s wrong? The demon myth has passed away. Now I am the ancient insect alive... So what about parasites?"


    Crystal Human said: "I come from the Jing Concrete Family. A long time ago, our ancestors may have met you."


    "I can''t remember it for a long time...what are you asking me for?"


    "This is a gift we give you... I hope you like it."


    This crystal glass bottle is on the table, shining.


    Lu Yuan was a little jealous. These strange people, as ancient beings, were actually very rich, but they have always been stingy. Unexpectedly, they took out the treasure this time.


    The globe-like device automatically identified and transmitted the information of the treasure to the ancient insect''s mind.


    [The fountain of healing is a product of the fountain of eternity constructed by higher civilizations. It has strong healing ability and can even heal soul injuries, which basically eliminates side effects. (Epic-level artificial wonders)]


    [After using this spring water, the cost of treatment for injuries can be greatly reduced. 】


    This old man is worth a thousand gold when he takes action.


    The ancient insect cannot refuse this temptation. This bottle of potion can make its great horns grow faster, and can also be used as a life-saving prop.


    Then, it suddenly reacted: "What do you want me to pay?"


    "Behind every peak civilization, there is a support from a group of old people in the previous dynasty." The stranger said righteously, "Of course we want you to support a mankind."


    The ancient insect was shocked, and this guy actually brought sponsorship.


    Lu Yuan also sat shamelessly in the center, pretending that he was worthy of investment.


    At the level of human psychology, there is a mechanism: the people you have helped may not necessarily help you; but the people who have helped you will definitely help you again.


    Lao Yiren said, "Since you want to support human civilization, you should support it more and not be so stingy. It is an ancient myth, and you cannot have no property."


    “Ga!”


    The ancient insect suddenly stopped moving, as if it was banned, only the six insect legs moved occasionally.


    What''s the meaning? Are these old guys robbing openly?


    "That''s the one who is called Lu Yuan, you just want to rob? " It''s a little angry.


    "Ahem, seniors, I''ll leave first. Just talk and tell me the final result." Lu Yuan felt that these old Deng''s minds were not normal. Even his cheeky skin was a little penetrated, so he quickly quit. This was a place of trouble.


    …


    The Crystal Man first suppressed the ancient insects, and then tempted earnestly: "If we want to continue the Pangu Continent Yuan to the next era, we have no chance to rely on our own strength and can only support other civilizations. Right?"


    "I naturally know that there is an underground alliance here that is thriving and making great progress! You don''t have to worry!" When the ancient worm talked about this, he couldn''t help but feel proud.


    After spending time together for a long time, we also have feelings. Humans are just outsiders, and the underground alliance is our own.


    "No, you are wrong. Humanity is more valuable than you think. It is better to support one more than you think if you support two in a scattered manner."


    "Hmph, how high can it be?"


    "Humans have the ability to [steel], the underground alliance, do they have it?"


    "Humans caught two [ghosts], don''t you know?"


    "You also caught two [demons], do you know?"


    "I even caught three [demons]..."


    Every time this crystal man said a word, the ancient insect would shake. It is a bit doubtful about life. Is this the human civilization that it knows?


    Good guy, no wonder there was a myth so early. It turns out that there are reasons.


    "Can your underground alliance be as good as others?"


    "Something makes sense..." Although it was my own flesh, I could only admit it.


    The Crystal Man''s style changed: "What property do you have? You''ll invest it together."


    "What?!"


    "No matter which civilization wants to develop greatly, it requires huge resources. If you invest more, you will still be the number one investor in the peak civilization in the future. Otherwise, this title may be snatched away by us."


    The ancient insect racked its brains to think, and the conditions sounded like this was OK...


    The number one investor in peak civilization? It was a little moved.


    Wait, is the other party making a free **** trip? Is it necessary to give away a large amount of property just for a name?


    Moreover, can humans become the peak civilization? Even if you have potential, it won''t be like this.


    Its brain is a little messy.


    After thinking for a long time, the ancient insect said vigilantly: "How much property are you going to invest in? Don''t think that my ancient insect is easy to deceive. I have contributed a great horn, so I have invested more than you, right?"


    Crystal Man said: "It seems that you have already been on the same front with us. Naturally, things like property cannot be contributed free of charge. We will give money directly to encourage growth. They should have their own hardships and opportunities."


    "What do you want?" The ancient insect was confused. You asked me to fund it, but you didn''t let me pull out the seedlings to encourage growth.


    The other party replied: "This era is about to usher in its heyday, and there will be more and more civilizations outside."


    "We can set up a joint foundation, and you go out to sell supplies, and we act as a staff officer behind the scenes and earn more points in civilization. This will not only enhance the overall strength of the ninth era, but also prepare for the future and make some money for yourself."


    "What...what chicken?!"


    "Foundation, do you understand?"


    The ancient worm widened his eyes. Fortunately, it had a lot of contact with the underground alliance, so he barely recalled the term "foundation" from his mind.


    Crystal Man explained: "We are in a different space and have many inconveniences in doing things."


    "It''s much more convenient for you to be active outside."


    "When encountering other civilizations, you can disguise them as ancient ruins and trade some civilization points."


    "As long as you can earn enough civilization points, even at the end of the era, you will not feel panic."


    "What''s more, transactions are win-win... Those civilizations are not considered scammed by you, they have gained something."


    …


    …
