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

Chapter 170 - 139: The Spaceship Left by Ancestors



The walls and floor of this room were covered with complex engravings; dense ants and tadpole-shaped symbols chaotically piled up together.

At first glance, the symbols seemed to surge toward his mind, viscous and chaotic, forming a torrent of information.

This feeling was truly heart-stopping and made stars swim in his vision.

[Extremely complex engraved marks; due to severe wear, their specific functions cannot be determined, but they still have certain effects.]

[Materials for the etched engravings include: Starry Sky Shell, Lanwen Crystal, Cinnabar Iron...]

[Only a master-level genius, along with a profoundly deep understanding, could craft such engravings.]

[Note: Learning these engravings requires certain talents, or a Divine Attribute of over 12 points.]

Pioneer’s Eye listed a series of unfamiliar terms that made Lu Yuan scratch his head in confusion.

Ideal Technology, indeed impressive.

Too bad it’s too high-end; the Rize people have spent so much time on it without even scratching the surface.

Lu Yuan was even less likely to decipher it. Although he possessed a Divine Attribute of 15.5, he had no teacher and could not teach himself without guidance.

Old Cat... was similarly incapable.

Lu Yuan suddenly remembered "Daedalus’s Legacy of Knowledge," that little golden book with tadpole-shaped runes engraved on it, which seemed to be a similar script.

In fact, humans had also seen this booklet... but had cracked nothing at all from it.

"Could it be that this little book is also an example of engraving technology?" Lu Yuan murmured to himself. "Certainly worth studying when I get the chance."

"There is indeed some Idealist Interference in this room," Old Cat paced back and forth. "Especially right in the center of the room, the Idealist Interference is emitting from the void."

"Why don’t you try, Lu Yuan? See if you can teleport in?"

"I feel a very faint, very strange aura."

Old Cat jumped onto Lu Yuan’s shoulder and whispered, "The aura of an Anomaly. Powerful civilizations capture Anomalies, and even if they are all dead, you could let your Tree of Life feed on them!"

"That makes sense!"

Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up, very tempted by the idea.

His Tree of Life had evolved significantly after feeding on a Monster’s corpse; if it could eat ten thousand corpses, wouldn’t it be able to challenge a Ghost?

His heart raced with excitement, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Let’s wait a bit longer. I’m afraid there might be dangers inside."

It wasn’t the fear of death holding him back, but rather the prolonged duration of resurrection if he died.

Thus, Lu Yuan decided to send the medical supplies back first before coming here to ’die’.

This decision wasn’t actually wrong.

After all, on the other side of the Seventh Civilization Branch, the unconscious Rize people were still waiting, and human lives were at stake.

...

This back and forth took half a month.

The motorboat journey was uneventful and rather leisurely.

Near the Sky Pit, they encountered the Harem guarded by wolves.

Poor Old Wolf, skinny and extremely listless as if he had been drained, his fur messy and scruffy like a homeless wanderer.

"Buddy, what are you doing? Why are you so thin? What have you been eating?!" Lu Yuan shouted from the motorboat.

It was eating a water buffalo’s intestines.

For some reason, Old Wolf had developed a taste for the foul-smelling food.

Hearing Lu Yuan’s call, it rushed over like mad, it’s solitary eye almost tearful.

"Awoo, Awoo, Awoo!" it roared nonstop, cursing at Lu Yuan.

You guys didn’t take me with you, let me suffer here, you deserve to die!

"Comrade, this guy not only lacks gratitude, but also wants to commit patricide. Shall we have dog meat today?" Orange Cat gleefully chimed in.

Soon after, the harem team chased them down.

This time, however, their number had significantly decreased, leaving only six female wolves. They looked healthy, their fur sleek and shining, indicating that they were quite happy.

The female wolves gave Lu Yuan a symbolic glance, then proceeded to showcase their empty bellies.

They howled brashly, indicating that he couldn’t take him away because they were not yet pregnant.

"The other six wolves got pregnant?"

"And then they just left?" Lu Yuan linked with the Tree of Life and got this amusing information.

These guys were living in harmony, the Tree of Life was watching!

"Awoo, Awoo!" Old Wolf looked utterly miserable, with his front legs scraping, trying to get on the boat.

Lu Yuan was deeply shocked by the Pangu Grey Wolf Race’s "pregnancy culture"; he proved with his actions that he would never disrupt a happy couple.

He first gave Old Wolf some Pomegranate Fruit, then fed him "Knocking Beast horn powder."

Old Wolf stared as his privates plumped up once again, dumbstruck.

He was truly depleted of energy, and even if his privates were revived, regaining the lost essence wasn’t easy.

Lu Yuan kicked him back down into the water.

Seeing those fierce female wolves crowd around, each with a happy, expectant look.

Old Wolf clenched his butt and leapt into the river with lightning speed.

He wanted to get on the boat!

As the engine roared to life, Lu Yuan did not take him aboard. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Lu Yuan, run!!

"Awoo, Awoo, Awoo!" Old Wolf looked ferocious, barking wildly at Lu Yuan, with half of an intestine still dangling from his mouth.

The harem team closed in tightly.

He began to flee desperately in little sultry steps along the river!

"Don’t come over!!!"

...

...

I’d had a smooth stint as a courier this time, and at last, there were no major tasks left.

"The evil wolf, struck by the forces of justice!"

"Teach it a valuable lesson, lest it stirs up any more trouble."

Lu Yuan was thrilled and expectant.

What kind of story would he encounter next time he met Old Wolf?

The most mesmerizing thing under the sky must be this thick unknown!

With this in mind, he once again arrived at the First Branch of Rize Civilization.

Inside that stone spaceship, a new adventure began.

"Mr. Lu, is there anything we can help you with?" the surrounding Rize people asked.

"Cover the walls for me; these things are a bit distracting. Do you have a camera, can I get one? Abilities like telepathy, put them to use," he answered.

After some discussion, the Rize people brought over a crystal ball and a shiny Cat’s Eye Stone.

"We don’t have a telepath here, but we do have a spiritual seer," Governor Moses explained. "If you are willing to take this Cat’s Eye Stone..."

The ability of spiritual vision is quite different from telepathy.

Wherever this Cat’s Eye Stone goes, the spiritual seer can see, and the images will be displayed inside the crystal ball, serving like a humanoid monitor.

Of course, this ability also greatly drains psychic energy, and can likely last only about two hours.

Moreover, the ability of spiritual vision cannot hear sounds, nor can it converse.

So compared to telepathy, they each have their advantages.

Lu Yuan nodded, "Clear accounts make good friends; if there really is a treasure inside, we’ll split it fifty-fifty."

"And if there’s technological data, we’ll share it together, is that okay?"

"No problem, absolutely no problem! You can rest assured on that point!"

Lu Yuan then wore the Cat’s Eye Stone on his chest.

This was akin to a body camera, reducing many potential disputes.

He was not greedy enough to take all the treasure for himself.

After all, the spaceship belonged to the Rize people; taking half of the wealth was already quite a lot.

If some exceptionally good items really appeared...

He would decide then, as the Rize people could only see an image, and they couldn’t identify exactly what it was... He could just embezzle it and compensate them later.

...

Thus, with everything ready, Lu Yuan sat cross-legged in the room.

The nearby walls were covered in engravings, emanating mystical and complex supernatural powers.

A few panels of Black Iron, slightly isolated these powers of idealism.

He calmed his mind, patiently waiting for the right moment.

Spatial teleportation was a very dangerous affair.

Even though there might really be a hidden space here, if he teleported into some mechanical device or into a wall, Lu Yuan would be instantly killed.

"Deep breaths...deep breaths..."

Gradually, he entered a meditative state.

Wearing "Leo’s Mask", it seemed as if a third eye sprung from the back of his head.

This eye, being highly near-sighted, could greatly enhance perception.

It could see things that normally couldn’t be seen.

Lu Yuan then covered this third eye with the "Far-Sighted Cornea".

Instantly, his view became even stranger; the mask and the cornea, two supernatural items, reacted mysteriously to each other’s idealism.

His third eye opened.

Streams of rainbow light continuously emerged from the wall’s engravings.

Streams of black fissures, like a spider’s web, spread throughout the small room.

Especially at the very center, massive black fissures intertwined, creating a complex, pulsating vortex, seemingly capable of sucking in one’s soul.

"When these two extraordinary items are stacked, they indeed produce an effect greater than the sum of their parts...I need to find some inspiration to modify them," he thought.

"But is this black vortex the hidden space?" Lu Yuan took a deep breath.

The thing looked somewhat sinister, giving off an ominous premonition.

If he hadn’t had the ability to resurrect, he definitely wouldn’t have teleported into this bizarrely mysterious place.

But ultimately, Lu Yuan made up his mind.

After all, "Since I’ve come all this way" seemed like an unavoidable law of idealism.

He closed his eyes, took off the Donkey Head Mask, and put it in the Storage Space.

In his mind, he visualized the hidden space within the "black vortex".

Gradually, a faint trace of inspiration surfaced in Lu Yuan’s mind, like the beat of a heart.

He discovered the rotational pattern of the black vortex.

His will, like a tiny serpent, slowly slithered in, finding a suitable corner for teleportation.

"Whoosh!" Lu Yuan disappeared from the room.
