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

The Conch Secretary laughed and said, "However, the effect of outdoor education is truly remarkable. Life is gradually becoming more affluent, food and drink are not a concern, and it's a fact that the new generation of children is becoming complacent."

"Complacency can lead to vulnerability, having a slight survival crisis isn't a bad thing."

Human 18th Civilization is still different from the normal civilization of Earth.

If in Earth's civilization, the government were to throw children into the wilderness and have them survive on their own for a month, their parents would surely revolt!

However, in Human 18th Civilization, implementing this educational policy isn't that difficult.

"Captain Lu, when do we start?" Soldier Captain Sha Kan'er interrupted the conversation through the headset.

The soldiers were all hiding in the Sky Fortress!

Lu Yuan said, "Don't worry, we'll talk after the rain stops."

"You see, this is what happens to civilizations that haven't canceled the Safe Zone; but by canceling it, like us, we can never live in peace..."

Sha Kan'er also sighed deeply, possibly remembering the Sha Li Clan from a long time ago...

On the contrary, the younger generation who have no experience of death have no insights; they're just happily picking up garbage here.

This might well be how the generation gap arises.

...

After the rain cleared, a large crack in the heavy black clouds let the sunlight pour down.

Lu Yuan, without hesitating, led a group to the Corn tree, where the mother bear was located.

Unexpected yet reasonable, after so many years, the mother bear... was still in its cave.

It had given birth to two new cubs. Upon seeing the person before it, the bear's face instantly went wild—who are you, don't you know this is my territory!

"Roar!"

It let out a fierce roar, towering above, its huge bear paws striking at Lu Yuan like a storm!

Lu Yuan dodged slightly.

He was currently a Sixth-level life, with over thirty points in Shape Attribute, easily overpowering the mother bear and pinning it to the ground.

Then, he picked up the two cubs and stroked their fur.

"After so many years, don't you remember your master?" Lu Yuan said unapologetically.

"Roar?!!"

The mother bear knew it was no match for Lu Yuan, feeling a sense of déjà vu. It ran to the cave entrance, wanting to abandon its cubs and escape.

But, to its horror, there was also a dense crowd of people outside the cave.

One of the soldiers fired a capture net, "swoosh," entangling it.

"Caught it!"

The two cubs, subdued by a higher being, shivered and didn't even dare to howl.

[Pangu Grizzly Bear]

[Shape: 20.2]

[Qi: 11.2]

[Spirit: 1.4]

[Ability: Monster Power Technique, significantly increases strength for a short period.]

[Extraordinary Level: Level 2]

Wow, this mother bear has leveled up!!

It was Level 1 thirty years ago, now it's a Level 2 creature.

This also proves that the Extraordinary Life on Pangu Continent is indeed slowly getting stronger.

And their lifespan is surprisingly long.

They're still spry after so many years.

Maybe we should find a suitable ability and arrange it for Old Wolf?

"Captain Lu, this Corn tree is really beautiful, much better than the wild ones."

"The productivity is not bad; each year, the Corn produced might have 0.2-0.3 Spirit Essence," said a researcher with "Plant Affinity," running over excitedly.

"A preliminary estimate puts this tree at about 50 Spirit Essence value!"

It's normal; most Extraordinary Plants near the relics are "God's" Milestone Reward and spanning an Epoch, aren't they worth more than the wild ones?

"This bear isn't really valuable... its fur has some uses though."

"Shedding fur twice a year, and drawing some blood, if it can produce 0.01 Spirit Essence, that would be the limit."

The bear mother was infuriated by such criticism, "Roar!"

Lady Conch stroked the bear mother, "Stay still, Mama Bear. I'm not going to eat your flesh."

But under Lady Conch's gentle voice, inexplicably, she calmed down.

"Animal Affinity," a fascinating Divine Skill, specially used against wild animals.

"This bear mother was once my subordinate, so don't make it difficult for her for now... Let her continue to stay in the cave."

"These cubs are also growing up quickly. When they leave the den, we can take the bear mother and the Corn Tree back with us."

"Roar!" the bear mother tried to roar but was instantly subdued by a pat on her head from Lu Yuan.

Everyone burst into laughter.

"Captain Lu really values old connections!"

They then found the nests of the Sky Scorpion, Snake King, and Poisonous King Bee.

These Extraordinary Creatures had all become much more powerful over the years.

They were respectively Level 3, Level 3, and Level 4!!

Especially the hive—a total of over 15,000 bees, valued at more than 250 Spirit Essence units!

They produced over 2 units of honey and royal jelly each year.

Quite impressive numbers.

Sha Kan'er excitedly clasped his hands together and said, "This place is great. But capturing them is a big challenge!"

"Some animals, once startled, either stop laying eggs or outright get stressed."

"Our soldiers can capture them easily, but to make them obey us will require some effort..."

Lu Yuan said, "Use the [Spirit Word]. Lady Conch will hypnotize them."

"Pack the bees along with their hive, capture the biggest of the Snake King and Sky Scorpion, leave a few offshoots. The small ones are too many and not worth much; we'll... keep some."

The Shu Mi Dam Civilization doesn't really like to keep live creatures, but they still buy snake sheds and insect sheds.

Lu Yuan, for some subtle reason, didn't want to take everything.

Maybe it was... a manifestation of the mercy of God?

It could also be that this was his last time visiting the relics of the Meida Civilization.

This time leaving, he would never return to what was called "the second homeland"...

Lady Conch laughed, "Understood, Captain Lu cherishes old memories, unwilling to completely eradicate!"

Lu Yuan frowned, "Madam, you are correct, but please don't be so blunt... This is, after all, the second homeland."

The people burst into laughter again, filling the forest with an air of mirth and harvest joy.

…

Sha Kan'er thought of something else, "Since Lady Conch is willing to help, there should be no problem with the battle."

"Moreover, these wild species require a large space for activities; our Sky City might face some difficulties in housing them well."

"Like those bees, they have a wide activity radius and are quite aggressive. If someone gets stung, it could be fatal."

"The scorpions and snakes also need large nests. They need large caves to live comfortably."

Indeed, the Sky City was a bit too small.

While housing people wasn't a problem—Sky City has three levels roughly totaling 150 square kilometers, living there with 120,000 people is actually quite spacious.

But to keep these wild animals, if we lock them in cages, their productivity would obviously be lower than in the wild—this was also why the Shu Mi Dam Civilization sold Extraordinary Animals and Plants at a discount.

Poor upkeep only depreciates their value.

"It looks like we really do need to transport a mountain," Lu Yuan sighed softly.

Of course, tasks like moving a mountain were considerations for later; right now, they needed to capture these creatures first.

The people quickly got into action; through Lady Conch's [Spirit Word], they spiritually shocked these creatures, then transported them to the inside of the "Sky Fortress," and immobilized them with hypnotic gas.

The speed of this was no different from capturing a bunch of chicks.

Lu Yuan could not help but sigh inwardly. Creatures that once required a detour were now easily captured with a wave of the hand, truly a testament to the power of civilization...

As for the Cannibal Flower, it proved more troublesome. Its immense size, three hundred meters tall and over fifteen meters in diameter, made the effects of the hypnosis from Spirit Word less effective.

Fortunately, this time, Lu Yuan brought the Tree of Life.

To avoid attention, the Tree of Life was transported via "Sky Fortress." (Everyone always thought it was Lu Yuan's pet.)

Riding on the giant tree, Lu Yuan slowly approached the Cannibal Flower, step by step.
