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

Chapter 367: High-level Relics in the Deep Sea



"Found it yet?" "Not yet... no!" Treasure Eye·Lu Ying, already drenched in sweat. Besides frantically activating the Treasure Eye, there was also a leaf from the Tree of Life on his forehead, provided by Lu Yuan's "Explorer's Eye." The two eyes were somewhat incompatible, and the massive influx of information into his mind was causing his soul to tremble slightly. He was searching for high-level relics! Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was constantly on the phone. "What... you're holding up okay? The Opium poppy tree was severely damaged by the hydrogen bomb..." His voice involuntarily grew louder. "Already destroyed three of the enemy's submarines... good... we haven't found it yet... found it yet?" "I... I'm trying." Lu Yuan swallowed a gulp of saliva, the human headquarters, well-established and abundant, could hold out if their foundation triggered. But his side wasn't so wonderful; although Insect Soldiers were strong and tough, they mainly excelled in close combat and were very disadvantaged under the bombardment of long-range firepower. Moreover, the number of Insect Soldiers was not sufficient, only less than a thousand, making it very difficult to destroy a modern civilization. In the intense war, even the armor of the Leviathan War Worm was getting dented piece by piece. It was somewhat injured. "Wabba, Slada!" The Worm King commanded a large insect named "Coal Worm," emitting a weird gray-black gas that obscured the sight. It allowed the injured Insect Soldiers to temporarily hide within the city ruins, using the ruins to dodge those damned missile bombings. There wasn't much time left. Lu Ying suddenly made up his mind and loudly said: "Captain Lu, these two eyes are incompatible, the information they bring is too chaotic! I... I must integrate the 'Explorer's Eye' into my soul to glimpse a secret!" Lu Yuan was stunned: "Since they're incompatible, hasty fusion might kill you... even if it doesn't kill you, it will severely injure you!" Divine Skills and souls are closely related, sometimes incompatibilities do occur. Like "Mind Control," this ability is complex, takes up too much capacity, and since Miss Conch possessed Mind Control, she couldn't have any other abilities. The "Treasure Hunting Eye" requires the capacity of "two eyes." The "Explorer's Eye" requires the capacity of "one eye." If you want to have both abilities at the same time, species with three eyes are needed, which humans cannot achieve. "No time left; if we continue like this and can't find that deep sea relic! I definitely won't die, please separate the Explorer's Eye from my soul when the time comes... I hope to call my wife." "Okay." Lu Yuan wasn't the kind who hesitated. He called over a Sealing Ability User, the Explorer's Eye transformed into a beam of white light, and merged into Lu Ying's soul. An Opium poppy headset got connected, a woman's trembling voice said: "This is Central Shelter, I am Lu Ling..." The vibrations in the headset seemed to transmit over here. "Hahaha, it's me." "Your husband's accomplishments will ultimately be greater than yours!" "I'll be back, we will definitely win." Severe pain nearly caused Lu Ying to pass out, but this man's face turned red as he tried to maintain a calm tone. His soul had fused the "Treasure Hunting Eye" and the "Explorer's Eye", showing signs of collapsing outright. But at that moment, a surge of massive information flooded his mind, the whole world abstracted into points, lines, and planes, as if countless lines were colliding, those flashing spots seemed to be the fabled... convergence of Qi Fortune? Lu Ying's forehead burst with sweat, he shouted loudly: "I see a lot! It's useful!" He deliberately yelled very loud, letting his wife hear this voice on the phone. But the next second, the Great Commander closed the communicator. Because Lu Ying was about to collapse, his two eyes burst out with fresh blood... like a balloon bursting, deep crimson eyes exploded! Bright red blood sprayed onto the ceiling. "Quick, strip his ability out!! Quick!" "No, I'm almost successful! Give me another five seconds." His other eye also burst. However, in his mind, a cluster appeared, deep in the ocean, a signal source continually radiating a certain signal, reaching two battlefields. Lu Ying shouted loudly: "It's in the southeast direction, at 5 o'clock! 300 kilometers away from here!" "Ocean depth, 11,000 meters... there's a deep sea relic!" He... collapsed, those empty eyes facing southeast, his body blinking furiously. "Enough! That's enough!" Lu Yuan roared, then stuffed a carefully prepared medicine into his mouth. Lu Ying used his last bit of strength: "One... gemstone... Soul Gem... be careful... there..." The Treasure Hunting Team personnel were quite prepared; one Sealing Ability User stepped forward, a hint of blue light emerged in his hand, stripping the "Explorer's Eye" ability from his soul. A few military doctors, all hands on deck, stuffed this man into a hibernation chamber... luckily, there were hibernation chambers in the Sky Fortress. They looked solemn: "Captain Lu... he might... might be brain dead... His soul is still alive but in a very severe condition." "If the soul is severely damaged, he may not be able to wake up." Lu Yuan couldn't help but clench his fists, tears welling up in his eyes. He originally planned to take out a Life Fruit... but with the soul damaged like this, the Life Fruit would be useless too, so he had to let it go. At this moment, he couldn't afford to be bogged down by personal feelings. Two battlefields were erupting in war, and with limited time, he had to eliminate the main culprit! "You guys, from high above, use the Source Fire Cannon, cover the Insect Clan Army below. Don't clash head-on with them." "Me, Sha Kan'er, you three, and Little Mirage Dragon... let's go, we're heading to the depths of the ocean to search for those damned High-level Relics. Damn it, we must make the instigators pay." "Let's go!" Little Mirage Dragon also knew that now was not the time for play, especially seeing Lu Ying's soul collapse in the search for relics. And down below, the Insect Soldiers were getting injured and dying. Seeing its friends from the past withering away one by one, it seemed to have grown up from its naive state suddenly, its expressive eyes filled with tears. A sad expression appeared on its face, and it spewed out mist from its mouth, activating the Mirage Space, enveloping Lu Yuan, the three soldiers, and one "Source Fire Cannon" inside. This shadow of space quickly darted from the Sky Fortress to the ocean. Along the way, the rumbling noise of that heavy weapon could still be heard. "Boom boom!" The Source Fire Cannons fired from the Sky Fortress, each shot creating a mushroom cloud, causing a certain degree of chaos. Lu Yuan sighed in his heart—actually, this still wasn't a truly modern nuclear war, possibly due to the limited industrial capacities of both sides. Even the South Island Civilization had relatively few nuclear weapons; otherwise, Sky City would have been flattened long ago. Little Mirage Dragon swam deeper and deeper. The deep ocean, losing sunlight slowly around five hundred meters depth, 800 meters below the sea surface. This area is known as the Twilight Zone, the last region with faint light before entering the deep sea. Below the Twilight Zone is complete darkness where even torchlight directed outwardly can seem like a tiny firefly lost in the universe. Several soldiers, wielding "Hume Instruments," kept on detecting. The instrument "buzzed" and really couldn't detect much, the occasional signals probably caused by some extraordinary fish species. "It seems our instruments are still not accurate enough... there's a lot of room for improvement." "What if the information provided by the major is inaccurate?" "Trust him, information checked by his life must be accurate." Lu Yuan sighed softly, "Hurry up!" "Aw howl!" The shadow of Mirage Space moved swiftly through the deep sea. After roughly swimming 300 kilometers, Little Mirage Dragon seemed nearly exhausted, its eyes rolling back. Lu Yuan fed it a lot of Pomegranate Fruit to revive the creature somewhat. "Look ahead!" The four men and one dragon finally spotted a hint of blue fluorescence in a sea trench 11,000 meters deep. They... actually saw a spaceship?! This strange creation, like a large flying saucer, was embedded in a crevice of the seabed continental shelf. Its disc diameter was about 1.2 kilometers, with a broken hole at the bottom, with blue light emitting from inside. [The relics of an unknown civilization.] [A civilization capable of creating such a huge technological artifact is at least of a Middle Level.] "Should we give it a fierce bombardment?" Sha Kan'er patted the Source Fire Cannon, its dark muzzle emitting a brutal gloss. "Don't rush... Even the Source Fire Cannon isn't powerful enough to completely destroy this spaceship." Lu Yuan waved his hand. "Let's go, we'll fly in and confront that damned guy." "Whoosh" Little Mirage Dragon used its Space Ability, darting into the breach. Amazingly, there was no water inside! A structure like a soap bubble protected the space inside; this situation was somewhat like the "White Jade Hall" left over from Gear Civilization, caused by a complex phenomenon known as "Void Bubble Engraving." The structure inside the spaceship was even more stunning! Billions of crystal-like structures continuously twinkled on the walls, forming complex patterns... the lights flowed like water, constantly moving. Lu Yuan did not know what these crystals really were, only able to assume they were some kind of computer, or perhaps a special defense structure? And at the end of the corridor, there was a thick metal door; finally, the Hume Instrument began to "buzz." The mysterious supernatural fluctuations were coming from the other side of the door. "It looks like the enemy is behind the door." … (Please vote for some Monthly Tickets!)
