I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 921 - 597: Lu Yuan Arrives Late_3

"Did you exert a lot of effort? Be a little more specific."

Lu Yuan’s figure was very blurry, with signals intermittently breaking up.

Transmitting just his consciousness was already very difficult, so Miss Conch wouldn’t temporarily come over.

Once the dream signal stabilized, he looked around.

The "Parasol Tree Dream" still resembled the past, with dusk and grasslands, ants, crickets, and dragonflies creating a harmonious natural scene.

This tree is ultimately not an Anomaly; its current strength has reached a bottleneck, requiring a large amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or the accumulation of time to grow further.

However, at this moment, there were no Humans in the dream, which once again gave Lu Yuan an unpleasant feeling.

The parasol tree rustled and shook, expressing something very complex and incomprehensible this time.

"It says, because its Essence is severely injured and it’s about to die, it won’t let Humans enter this dream."

"All the contacts over the past hundred days were initiated by it secretly," came Miss Conch’s voice.

The parasol tree shook again, and a small Light Ball appeared in front of Lu Yuan, recording part of this great battle.

From how the Twin Ginkgo Tree used "Light Screen Spirit Language" to contend against the {Demon} to the massive nuclear bomb bombardment.

The enormous Light Balls made Lu Yuan’s heart race.

In his view, the {Frost Mist Demon} wasn’t very powerful.

But it was more than sufficient to wipe out a Level Two civilization.

"It seems that without my involvement, Humans have their own evolution."

Even without the "Light Screen Spirit Language" provided by him, Yunhai City might still have triumphed, albeit at the cost of a few more hydrogen bombs, but many soldiers might have perished.

"You worked hard, this time you will be rewarded generously, and Humans will certainly not let you down..."

"Oh, I’ll get you a Spirit Plant Field now. Do you have the Blood of Alien?"

There really is!

Last time, when the {Frost Mist Demon} intruded into the Safe Zone, a piece of its flesh was cut off.

The blood that flowed out was useless to Humans and was all poured on the parasol tree.

This is also the main reason the Twin Ginkgo Tree has grown exceptionally fast over the past few years.

"With the Entropy Element, things become simple. Come, map the engravings I’ve made onto the bark and vessels, it might hurt a bit, so bear with it."

Lu Yuan patiently began creating the "Spirit Plant Field"—as the pioneer of Field Industrialization, he was very familiar with this Field.

"By the way, what’s happening in the real world, show me."

Lu Yuan commanded the parasol tree to project the real world into the dream.

Immediately, a blurry screen appeared before him.

"Yunhai City looks just like before... nothing has changed."

Still the familiar high-rises, and at the end of the street, you could still see the thought-provoking sign "Braised Chicken Rice."

This is expected; Yunhai City has only been around for a mere 5 years and couldn’t undergo a dramatic transformation like Green Grass City.

"Is that... a Floating Fortress?"

"It’s developing quite well... how come there are so many?"

At least 18 fortresses were soaring in the sky.

The larger ones were as big as aircraft carriers, with tonnages over 100,000, while the smaller ones were between 20,000 and 30,000 tons.

In the Earth era, this was practically the scale of an interstellar battle fleet!

But in the Supernatural era, the technology content of floating fortresses isn’t much, as long as one could use electricity and make cement, they could cobble together a floating fortress.

In the nearby square, a group of soldiers was sitting on chairs watching TV, clapping from time to time, with smiles on their faces.

The title on the big screen was surprisingly: "Warmly Celebrate the Great Victory of the Third World War"!

"Yunhai City Holds the First Human Alliance Meeting, Formally Convening"!

Lu Yuan couldn’t help but widen his eyes; this scene indeed exceeded his expectations.

The Human Alliance was established!

...

Streets Barren!

Today is "the 100th day after the end of the Third World War"—Yes, the previous battles with the {Demon} have been recognized by Human survivors as the Third World War!

The total death toll is... 99.19 million!

A total of 11 cities were eradicated, and only 6 cities remain!

This figure is simply staggering, with 70% of the Human population perishing suddenly!

Post-war statistics are already something that makes one’s scalp numb, and there are still survivors to be settled, city mergers, civilian migrations... these more than three grievances are simply overwhelming!

What’s more, there is also a strange yet important matter—How should the {Demon} be handled?

It has already self-frozen but is indeed alive.

Moreover, a "Control" ability was stripped away.

This dreadful Divine Skill has become an indescribable taboo, utterly impossible to be integrated with Humans!

"Comrades, friends."

"Today marks the 100th day after the end of the Third World War."

"I stand here representing the remnant Humans, to deliver a speech."

Dressed in a suit, Li Chunhong stood before the television station, his voice solemn and profound: "We have achieved a brief victory, but we now face long-term challenges."

"We stand at the crossroads of destiny, facing a scarred world."

"The currently tallied death toll is 79,234,210 people, with 20,314,912 missing; due to the chaotic household registration system in some cities, the number of uncounted missing people might number in the millions. This is an unimaginably vast figure."

"11 cities were completely destroyed."

"The war cost us dearly, but it also made us realize the preciousness of peace and opportunity."
