I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 759 - 545: The Book Writing of the Greedy Demon God_3
Chapter 759 -545: The Book Writing of the Greedy Demon God_3
Even if epochs change, it can still be passed down for a long time.
“But this task is very difficult!” the Rat Artisan judged, “Your ‘Farmer No.1’ is a Legendary item… even the worst Legendary is still Legendary.”
“Think about it, traditional craftsmen can create one or two Legendary-level items in a lifetime, and that’s already at master level. How can you expect them to follow your path?”
He was puzzled: “There are the ‘Great Gear Treasure’ and the ‘Mini Treasure Gears’ in the world, but the widespread one is still the Mini Treasure Book. The ‘Great Treasure Book’ can only be read by a Great Spirit Rhythmer, it’s too advanced and obscure, no one understands it.”
Lu Yuan smiled: “That’s why I’m still exploring. If I can lower the difficulty, perhaps a new path can emerge.”
“How to lower the difficulty?”
“The current idea is to mix in some Entropy Elements. I’m still searching for patterns among them.”
He plans to first use the [greed field] to study some foundational imprints of Extraordinary Abilities, starting bit by bit.
The Rat Artisan stroked his beard: “Entropy Elements are very rare… Which civilizations can afford them?”
But after a moment of thought, if mixing in Entropy Elements can create Legendary Items—it seems quite attractive after all?
At least he, the Rat Artisan, was willing to spend some money to do it.
“Moreover, an item that can generate a field can be used for a long time once it’s created.”
“From this perspective, it seems worthwhile…”

…
Just as Lu Yuan and the others were having a heated discussion, hundreds of people from the Wulan Clan were also in a frenzied state inside a room.
A large group of people gathered together, staring at tablets and studying!
They even closed the curtains and assigned a few soldiers to guard the door.
“What is this… an S-class spacesuit? What is a spacesuit?”
“Orbital train? It’s not cheap… I saw this thing with the Dwarf Clan.”
The dazzling array of resources and commodities struck their fragile hearts; they really wanted to buy everything and wanted everything! Their eyes turned red with desire.
Even ordinary soldiers realized that this was a significant opportunity—a great opportunity that could allow the city, the race, to rise rapidly!
“Great Scholar, who is stronger, Green Grass City or the Dwarf Clan?” a soldier licked his dry lips.
“Well… it’s hard to say.” Great Scholar Constantine pondered for a while and shook his head, “What Green Grass City is currently showing can’t be all of their foundations; they should be hiding a lot of secrets.”
“The Dwarf Clan is the same, hiding many things.”
“But as it stands, Green Grass City seems more advanced than the Dwarf Clan. Their electronics are too powerful.” He gestured with his mouth to the large group of robots outside the window.
In just half a day, the snow covering the city would be completely cleared away. The work efficiency… machines are much more reliable than humans.
“If Green Grass City maintains its good reputation for fair trade and is willing to deliver goods, soon, most cities in the Northern Territory will be drawn here to trade. By then…”
“Alright, stop talking about these useless things! What’s urgent now is to discuss what we can sell to the other party!” Wulan City’s City Lord, Ta Gang, forcefully patted the table and then couldn’t help but turn his head to look at his brothers, who shared the same hardships in another city.
A true psychological depiction—especially when these brothers are slightly wealthier than oneself, that string in the heart is really tightly wound.
But, we’re poor!
Another City Lord, Dao Gu, cleared his throat: “Ahem, can we jointly invest in purchasing some items? For instance, a Floating Fortress, with each city holding half of the shares. This way, we can save half the funds.”
“We can completely join forces to do business together.”
This is actually a bad idea because there’s still a thousand-kilometer gap between the two cities, making it easy for conflicts to arise.
But there’s no choice, we’re poor!
Joint investment to cut costs in half is a huge temptation, and as for future disputes, they can be dealt with later.
“But even if the Floating Fortress can be co-invested, does that mean we won’t buy anything else?”
“Orbital trains can’t be shared, solar panels can’t be shared… and then there’s down jackets, computers, mobile phones…”
The crowd racked their brains thinking.
The entanglement on the face, like swirling dark clouds, unable to disperse.
Suddenly, Great Scholar Constantine’s eyes lit up: “In the past, did you ever receive an engraving compass distributed by the Dwarf Clan?”
“Are you referring to… that thing as big as a small house?”
“Yes!”
Fifty years ago, the powerful Dwarf Clan once spent significant resources to distribute a kind of “engraving compass.”
This item is about the size of a millstone, with its surface intricately engraved to the utmost complexity.
The Dwarf Clan claimed that as long as most of the city’s citizens gathered around the “engraving compass,” they could convert an advanced level of ideal energy!
This ideal energy is nobler than “spirit essence,” and they were willing to pay a hefty price for it!
This high-profile action indeed brought some benefits to the Dwarf Clan.
Some weaker cities used the “engraving compass” to convert this advanced energy, selling it for a good price and living a good life.
But which civilization surviving in the harsh Northern Territory is docile?
Moreover, with numerous relics around, there are always some lucky civilizations able to find relevant knowledge in ancient texts.
Not all of them, but rumors spread that this higher-level energy is a product called “civilization points” or “luck!!”
A billion times nobler than any combustible crystal stone, coal, and many times nobler than spirit essence!
Many civilizations, upon hearing that their “luck” could be sold, were unwilling.
Are you kidding? That’s “luck!”
And some cities that cheaply sold their “luck” were begrudgingly regretful, as if their future prospects had vanished.
Though the Dwarf Clan is strong, they cannot wage war with every race, so they temporarily halted this action.
“The Dwarf Clan’s campaign didn’t acquire much ‘luck,’ but rather lost a significant amount of reputation… it has only begun to slowly recover in recent years.” Constantine raised an eyebrow, “There are no secrets in the Northern Territory! Unless we become like those raider civilizations, surviving on robbery, reputation remains very important.”
“You mean, let us sell our ‘luck’? At a high price?” The faces of the two leaders showed concern.
Last time, they did not sell.
Why should they sell it this time?
“That’s because, last time, it wasn’t clear what ‘luck’ really was.” The Great Scholar stroked his beard, “Through long-term academic exchange, we discovered that ‘luck’ is merely a term and does not involve actual fortune.”
“Spirit essence is ideal energy at an individual level; by extracting the soul, one can obtain spirit essence, and the energy of the Extraordinary Spark can also transform into spirit essence, everyone knows this, right?”
The people nodded.
“And luck, or ‘civilization points,’ is ideal energy at a civilization level. If a civilization is a fruit tree, so-called ‘civilization points’ are the fruits that have already ripened.”
“Picking these fruits does no harm to the city. So, we misunderstood the Dwarf Clan in the past.”
“Misunderstood? They only wanted to cheaply acquire civilization points! Don’t think too highly of them!”
“Then what about Green Grass City, should we sell to them? Civilization points generate quite slowly, right?”
“Indeed… not fast. According to ancient texts, if a city ceases development, it basically doesn’t generate any, even with relic-level rapid development, civilization points only increase by a fraction each year…” The Great Scholar seemed to always know a bit of everything, “Does everyone remember the civilization milestone? If we completed any milestone, there might be a considerable income. But accumulating on our own would be quite slow.”
Everyone showed expressions of amazement.
The cities of the Northern Territory were initially within the Safe Zone.
It wasn’t until the activities of the Dwarf Clan nearly a hundred years ago that other cities gradually left the Safe Zone.
The Human race on the Snow Continent, innately endowed with supernatural abilities, had also completed one or two milestones, such as “taming Extraordinary Creatures.”
“We surely have some civilization points!”
“We can ask Green Grass City if they want to buy it; if they press the price too low, we’ll… sell it to the Dwarf Clan!”
“That’s right! That’s how it should be!!”
Suddenly possessing a large sum of money, smiles spread across everyone’s faces, and their expressions were as bright as spring sunshine when looking at the supplies on the tablet.
