I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 645 - 467: The Appearance of a Quasi-interstellar Civilization!

Chapter 645: Chapter 467: The Appearance of a Quasi-interstellar Civilization!

Facing everyone’s doubts, Lu Tiantian smiled and said: “It’s simple, that civilization probably hasn’t discovered our city yet. We can send an electromagnetic wave message first, greet them in a friendly manner, and invite them to study the Snake-man Palace together.”

“If the other party does not propose rules like gambling, it means that their awareness of the Pangu Continent may not be high.”

“We might as well go with the flow, there’s no need to go the extra mile…”

This was indeed a novel approach, as it had always been humans who initiated the “gambling” in the past.

Now that the ball was in the other party’s court, it was also a good option—after all, both parties were technological civilizations, and “gambling” actually had its limitations; it wasn’t likely they would display nuclear weapons as a show of force.

If the other party doesn’t propose anything, then just don’t gamble at all.

Having made up his mind, Lu Yuan spoke loudly: “Then, please prepare a Floating Fortress and communicate with the other party as soon as possible.”

“Here I must emphasize one point, the purpose of communication is to escape the predicament!!”

“If the other party is far stronger than us, we can yield the leading authority in exploring the Snake-man Palace to them, and we can follow their command to a certain degree.”

“After all, this world is still one where strength reigns supreme; as long as the other party can lead us out of trouble, it’s only natural to pay some price.”

His expression serious, he said: “But if the gap between us is not large, we must control the exploration of the Snake-man Palace and not allow the other party to act recklessly!”

“This may involve Catastrophe Level anomalies, and I don’t believe they have more experience in confronting them than we do. A major mistake could have uncontrollable consequences!”

Old Cat hummed: “Meeting and wanting the other party to follow your command, might as well just gamble directly and compete in all aspects.”

Lu Yuan cleared his throat: “This is indeed the logic… but we still need to use some tact, and not be so direct.”

“Comrades, have confidence!”

“We are a bona fide Third-level Civilization, walking on the legs of both Materialism and Mind; we are not biased in any aspect!”

“The other party can’t be a Fourth-level Civilization, no matter how strong, so there’s no need for us to belittle ourselves. There’s a great chance that we are stronger than them, and it can even be said that encountering our peaceful civilization is a form of luck for them.”

The crowd visibly relaxed a lot; the enhancement in overall strength really did give everyone more confidence.

“Then, let’s get moving!”

Many high-ranking military officers left the meeting room, feeling inexplicably exhilarated.

One after another, Source Fire Mechas were activated, their dark bodies flickering with light.

The large Floating Fortresses were also urgently started up.

This thing was actually just a concrete bunker that, once equipped with the Pandora Anti-gravity System, could move slowly in the air.

The walls were more than a dozen meters thick and engraved with Solid Runes; theoretically, it could survive the bombardment of a million-ton hydrogen bomb!

The officers also donned relatively decent equipment from the National Treasury; such an opportunity was impossible in normal times, they were all dressed up incredibly sumptuously, illuminating the entire room with various Mind lights…

And the Diplomats also carried various small props, including Shell headphones, Mind Sensing Enhancement Devices, and other sundry little gifts.

Even the precious Level Three Spirit Runes were brought along—these things really are expensive, each use consumes more than a hundred Spirit Essence and about 1 point of Luck! They’re costly to use!

Only Lu Yuan dressed in casual clothes, watching them with some resentment.

He and the Greedy Demon God could not leave Green Grass City…

There really was no way around it.

Green Grass City truly was a den of dragons and tigers.

There were already two Ghosts; what if something happened while he was away, and Monsters took the opportunity to strike?

And his lovely wife, although she also had some self-protection Ability, was too easily targeted. If such an outlandish scenario were to happen, Lu Yuan would never forgive himself!

“The safety inside is more important; I won’t go,” Old Lu muttered quietly.

“I’ll go with them, you rest assured. Comrade, everyone has grown, they will surely secure the leading authority for you so you can rightly embezzle from the Snake-man Palace,” Old Cat declared self-righteously.

“How come you’re accusing me of embezzlement again?” Lu Yuan’s forehead veins bulged, “This is slander!”

Old Cat jumped into the cockpit of a Puppet Mecha.

This was a specially modified armor model that looked like a majestic tiger walking upright.

The machine tiger’s pupils glowed red, fierce and imposing, and it could emit a Source Fire Laser from its chest.

“Warriors, let’s depart!” Lu Yuan waved his hand.

The Floating Fortress slowly rose, sailing out of the port and gradually heading towards the direction of the Alien Civilization.

…

…

Lanpeng Civilization, Supreme Leader, Jin Bote.

This towering birdman, standing 2 meters tall, is currently lounging on the sofa, sipping on a cup of pale red alcoholic beverage.

A few beautiful female bird people are lazily lying in his arms, grooming his broad and majestic wings.

Recently, Jin Bote’s mood hasn’t been great. The reason is that his city, “Quincy City,” has been trapped in this damned prairie for four whole years!

His ambitious aspirations are slowly being eroded by this vast grassland.

As the Fourth Prince of the Lanpeng Civilization, his city was brought to the Pangu Continent to participate in a baffling civilizational trial at the onset of the Ninth Epoch by a mysterious force.

According to his original destiny, as an heir of royal blood, he should be ruling over a population of more than five hundred million on his own planet, to become a great governor. All the education he’d received since childhood and his noble lineage told him that he was one of the future leaders of the Lanpeng Civilization!

Especially when technology was flourishing, the Lanpeng Civilization had already broken through the critical barrier of controlled nuclear fusion technology and was making strides toward space, embarking on the interstellar era—even the construction of interstellar warships had begun!

He had the ambitious dream of becoming an interstellar governor and even planned to immigrate to an exoplanet, to be eternally recorded in history books.

But before his dream could start, “Quincy City” was transported to this odd Pangu Continent, and the great leader became a mere city mayor. The discrepancy was like falling from heaven into hell.

“A bunch of rubbish, still can’t find the reason!” Jin Bote smashed the glass furiously against the table.

“Am I to be trapped here for a lifetime? To waste the prime of my life in this place?”

“Your Highness, do not be angry. Our scientists will surely find a way,” one birdman said.

“Your Highness, please, calm your anger,” the female bird people continuously comforted him, “The exploration team never disappoints.”

Jin Bote snorted coldly and slowly calmed down as he looked out the window at the blue sky and white clouds.

He recalled the past years immediately after entering the Pangu Continent.

In fact, the city initially had a population of nearly nine million, but it still couldn’t sustain the global industry chain of the interstellar era. Technology plummeted overnight, social order was in chaos, and the nobles even rebelled.

The Fourth Prince showed his tyrant’s prowess during the turmoil by first taking control of the army, suppressing the rebellion, seizing properties, and using the royal prestige to restore order. Nevertheless, hundreds of thousands died, and up till now, the city hadn’t completely recovered its essence.

Of course, Quincy City did have some reserves of talent, and after so many years of development, the city rose from chaos once again.

They even stumbled upon five ancient civilization relics.

Yes, five!

Outside their Safe Zone, there’s a relic visible to the naked eye.

But that relic was disappointingly primitive, only at a medieval technological level.

All the written materials were corroded by fungi, and nothing significant was found.

The only thing of research value was the half-Gothic fortress floating in the air, constructed from some type of marble, like a small mountain suspended midair.

This fact simply astounded the scientists of the Lanpeng Civilization. What interstellar joke is this? Why is this thing flying in the sky?!

Is it that any medieval civilization on the Pangu Continent can build an interstellar warship?

The second relic they encountered was even more disappointing, likely still in the slave era.

However, the indigenous people of the slave era had also constructed floating fortresses: buildings made of clay, straw, and some kind of plant starch as glue, which, unbelievably, could also fly?

The Lanpeng Civilization wasn’t stupid and soon realized this might be a major opportunity—the emergence of a Mind-oriented route simplified what used to be complex technologies.

The Floating City was now a simple technology, no longer as unattainable as before.

So, Jin Bote boldly took fifty years to develop Supernatural science and modify the foundations of his city, suspending a portion of the city. By doing this, he indirectly achieved his dream of becoming the “interstellar governor.”

“Although I can’t become an interstellar governor, nor can you become interstellar citizens,” he said.

“But in this new world, we still have goals to strive for! A brand-new Mind-oriented route is before our eyes!”

“Many citizens have awakened Extraordinary Abilities, which is a huge boost for our development.”

“Here, I have a small wish. If we develop well on our own, will there be a chance to return to our home planet in the future? With the aid of Supernatural technology, can we proudly tell them, ‘Our mother civilization, we are now stronger than you are’? As representatives of the Lanpeng Civilization, we must bloom a beautiful and splendid flower in this new world!”

In this speech, the eight million city residents boiled over with an unbeatable morale!

Cheers and shouts were like ocean waves, echoing wave after wave in the upper atmosphere.

Of course, this was also inseparable from his Divine Skill—”Agitator”!

During the speech, the audience would subconsciously be convinced and greatly boost their morale.

It was the exclusive skill of a great leader!
