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

Meanwhile, the Rize people around him smiled contentedly, "Rest assured, these ants were just born, they’ve never eaten meat before!" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Their bite is absolutely gentle, giving you the wonderful feeling of skin rejuvenation!"

"I knew it, why they were so small," said Old Cat, soaking in the ants, and surprised, "Are young queen ants more valuable?"

Even without any sensation, this fellow was taking a bath.

"Of course, the younger the better. These ants are just one day old, 18 hours and 44 minutes to be precise."

"They have never bathed anyone before, you are their first!"

Old Cat: "Old Lu, did you hear that? You’re enjoying the treat of virgin young queen ants."

Lu Yuan felt a chill in his heart!

Immersed in the ants, he was on the verge of going mad, feeling something crawling over his chrysanthemum.

This horrific and cold scene made him involuntarily recall the eyes that once grew on his chrysanthemum and eggs.

Recalling the pain, Lu Yuan couldn’t help shivering, his hands and feet ice-cold despite the heat, thinking the world went to hell and the devil roamed the earth, wondering if the world could ever get better.

Well, back to the point, if you put aside the intense fear of the "ant bath," it was actually quite comfortable...

You just have to close your eyes and enjoy!

Don’t overthink it!

After the bath, he put on a robe with a local flair.

The fabric was silky to the touch and very elastic.

[The robe made from Golden Baby’s silk, durable, dust-resistant, warm in winter and cool in summer, the craftsmanship almost made it an Extraordinary Item.]

"Mr. Lu, we will work overtime to tailor-make clothes and pants for humans for you," said the Rize person in charge of household affairs, "Let me take your measurements."

That was the pleasure of privilege!

The clothes and pants brought from the human world, after so many years, were all worn out, and now he was getting new ones, custom-made from an alien civilization.

It was indeed delightful.

Lu Yuan specifically requested, "I prefer the fabric to be a bit rougher."

"No problem."

Lu Yuan was not a stingy person; he straightforwardly gave them several gold rings, considering they were found anyway.

The eyes of those Rize people all lit up... Well, it seems these rings might not escape their fate of being confiscated.

Lu Yuan played the Rize Civilization’s electronic game consoles, very rudimentary electronic games that involved two figures playing a game of ball, back and forth.

So, he shared ideas about "Mario," "Tetris," and the like, which made the Rize Civilization’s scientists marvel as if they’d seen a god, thoroughly enjoying the concept... It’s just a pity they lacked the technical prowess to turn these ideas into reality.

Because the great nation was no more, semiconductor technology was hard to develop further in the short term.

Last was the history of the Rize Civilization.

"We might have had very powerful ancestors," Lord Leon said, "because the technology contained in many relics unearthed is even more advanced than ours. In some realms, fragments of spaceships have even been found."

"Of course, the remains of spaceships don’t exist in our city."

"Alas, the concept of technology wasn’t born here, but transmitted by other civilizations..." He seemed somewhat regretful, "Like the Rize Civilization’s First Branch, their technological strength is not a little stronger than ours."

"If you’re interested, you can also go and see it. They are very welcoming of your visit as well."

In other words, the Rize Civilization might be one of the survivor civilizations from an earlier Epoch on the Pangu Continent that had taken refuge there.

Because of some mishap in the middle, the spaceship crashed, the civilization regressed, and eventually became what it is now...

"I knew it, this is a second-generation civilization."

"But this regression is too much," Lu Yuan commented to himself.

"Now there have emerged two ways of taking refuge."

"The first is siliconization, like Old Cat’s, and the second is the refuge-seeking faction of the Rize Civilization’s ancestors... Neither seems very successful."

The remains of the [Ghost] were probably brought over by this survivor civilization, too.

How powerful a civilization must have been to seal a [Ghost], Lu Yuan could hardly imagine.

Just a drop of the sealed [Ghost] blood was enough to fend off the [Monster]’s ability to control the mind.

In a head-to-head confrontation, he wondered how many levels of the Extraordinary Spark would be needed to last a few rounds.

Having received so much information, Lu Yuan was indeed satisfied.

Since the other party was so sincere, he got straight to the point, "Lord Leon, since I’ve come here and learned some knowledge, I’m also willing to trade with your civilization."

"The items I’ve brought this time are quite plentiful, from minerals to animal hides, to some natural food ingredients."

"What would you like me to do? Please make your request, and I’ll see what I can do."

Here it comes!

Leon’s pupils dilated, and his heart thumped heavily—wasn’t this moment precisely what he’d been waiting for?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to bring it up directly.

Then he rubbed his rough hands together, "The rest isn’t very important, but I ask that you train some warriors for us."

"Help us reach the Milestone of spreading a million Extraordinary Sparks as soon as possible."

Between the lines, the message was simple: we want more knowledge about the Extraordinary Spark!

Of course, training warriors would mean teaching something more than just combat skills.

The Extraordinary Spark was the key!

"The other items, you might not be too interested in... our most important gift can only be this," Leon said, passing a small golden box, which contained a resin the size of a soybean.
