Chapter 310: Inspiration... Exploded!
"This mysterious 'Qi' has always lingered in society, never dissipating.
Lu Yuan watched for a long time before he understood what this annoying 'Qi' was.
It was actually called 'Ideal'!
To become a more powerful civilization!
Honestly, Lu Yuan was a realist himself. He had been an average student from childhood, born in a glittering big city, with a decent family environment which shaped his character.
He... had no ideals.
Or rather, making lots of money was his ideal...
Isn't going to work all about making money? Who would do it for the boss's Rolls-Royce? That's what Lu Yuan truly thought.
But now, he had unexpectedly nurtured a generation with 'ideals'!
This made Lu Yuan feel a subtly bitter sweetness and an indescribable emotion.
However, he couldn't let Old Cat mock him, so he approached a young lady and shared his thoughts.
'It's quite normal, isn't it?' Conch Mother seemed somewhat puzzled by his emotions, 'Under the patriarchal system, there must be a capable parent.'
'As long as the parents are dedicated, the children will feel it and be subtly influenced.'
'From this perspective, the Great Elder of Green Grass Civilization isn't doing as well as us...'
Playing the role of parents, they indeed put in effort, compared to the Great Elder... Two parents are always better than a single parent.
A beautiful smile appeared on Conch's face, patting her plump chest, and she boasted: 'It's all thanks to Conch Mother and Daddy Lu.'
Lu Yuan asked, 'Then, what's your ideal?'
'Me?... To quickly reach the maximum Divine Attribute, hopefully surpassing 40 points, and to continue being a precious darling... then to see you occasionally enraged is just too addicting.'
'And you?'
Lu Yuan was initially planning to tease her, just to have some fun as she boasted of being a 'precious darling.'
But facing such a sacred topic, he could only think hard for an appropriate answer, 'To keep an environment with ideals going on continuously, and not just for these few short years...'
'That's going to be difficult, Mr. Lu. You'll have to work like an ox in the future,' laughed Conch.
Lu Yuan immediately pinched her ear, 'Then let's choose a simpler one... hurry up and solidify your soul.'
Conch muttered discontentedly, 'Why does your ideal have to involve me?'
"Because I was enraged."

Thus, after a week of intense work, the government of Green Grass City officially issued the 'Moving Mountain Project White Paper', a thick volume of over 300 pages.
The plan listed all the major goals to be accomplished in the next twenty years, from perspectives of population, science, industry, etc., involving 300,000 people in the corresponding construction wave.
The government was serious this time, and of course, so were the ordinary people!
Suddenly, nearly everyone was mobilized.
Lu Yuan personally held a groundbreaking ceremony, and seeing the enthusiastic crowd below, he said emotionally, 'We are a very lucky civilization.'
'Our predecessors left us a lot, friends helped a lot, and we also tried a lot.'
'But even so, surviving in this harsh world, the future is still unclear.'
'Luckily, we are a collective, and we have struggled together and survived until now.'
'Sometimes I'm surprised that a modest band has developed until now... Can we keep moving forward? This is a question I often ponder...'
Before he could finish, from all directions came 'Yes!'
This voice was so loud, it completely drowned out his.
'This is about building a world wonder! I want to sign up!'
'Me too!'
Then, an uproar of 'Mountain Shifting' cheers followed.
Although Human 18th Civilization was just a First-level Civilization.
At this moment, even a First-level Civilization showed its own fighting spirit.
This mysterious spiritual power spread like wildfire through every corner of Sky City.
Lu Yuan said emotionally again, 'Returning to the mother civilization of humans is actually just my dream... Many travels, actually...'
'No, it's everyone's dream!' someone shouted from below.
'We want to build a great civilization too!'
Honestly, Lu Yuan was a bit teary-eyed, he had indeed put much effort into the strength of humanity, but the feedback at this moment made him feel a bit like 'it was all worth it.'
'Haha, I underestimated you... it's everyone's dream!'

Meanwhile, at Green Grass School, a group of young lads, about to graduate, cheered continuously in front of the TV.
Seeing that white paper, each gasping hard, feeling a surge of unexplainable zeal.
They had no Divine Skills, just the most ordinary metal workers, merely involved in materialistic technological tasks.
They passionately discussed what jobs they could take on, how to program 'Green Grass Paradise,' how to automate production, etc.
The atmosphere was filled with sincerity, embodying a naive and simple ambiance.
At that moment, even outside groups like the Ratmen felt an inexplicable Resonance and a subtle emotion.
They built Sky City over a long time.
Perhaps they could also build successfully, but it surely wouldn't be as thrifty as humans.
After all, humans have such a small population... freeing up industry is difficult.
The newly joined school teacher, Ratman Shu Gongye, put on his reading glasses, slightly puzzled, 'Lads, this is about adding more effort, working for twenty years! Twenty years of youth is no joke...'
