Somewhere in Pangea.
The wonderful New Year holiday has passed quickly, and people are once again engaged in tense and busy work.
"We are leaving here today..." Several soldiers were carrying a bunch of supplies, talking and laughing along the way.
"Why, I still miss this place."
"How could it be? If the empire still exists, I should be an ordinary farmer, farming..."
"Haha, I might be a fisherman."
In the past time, the ruins of the empire have been explored countless times by soldiers, and no resources can be found.
Thirty years have passed, and the place has become overgrown with weeds, with no trace of its past.
In another hundred years, this city will be covered by nature, and no trace of the Mandala Empire will be found.
And the wood with a radius of dozens of kilometers has also been cut down cleanly, and those huge Zerg are carrying the wood one by one.
They are like tireless machines that can keep working as long as they have a bite to eat.
But just today, the Zerg warriors received the order from the King Zerg and slowly rushed back to the Sky City from the wilderness.
…
At this moment, King Insect, Lu Da, is reporting: "King, all the Insects have gone home. There are currently 132 Awakening Insects, and the rest have all been sleeping in the Sky Fortress for a long time."
"The soldiers sent abroad, a total of 422, have all returned."
Lu Yuan stood on the edge of the Sky City, overlooking the vast land. The silent mountains were filled with the chirping of insects, and the red giant was hidden in the deep pool. Near the coastline, the ancient story was about to come to an end.
A new story is about to begin.
The fishing boats in the distance also came back slowly.
The fishermen took the last boatload of fresh fish, loaded with harvest, to the City in the Sky.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the radio issued a notice: "Attention all communities! The Sky City is about to take off. Community staff are invited to do a population count."
Each community has about 500-800 people and is the smallest administrative unit.
Ten communities in one town.
The current population of 120,000 is almost 20 small towns.
What was once a green town has finally been upgraded to a green city.
Because the city is about to take off, people can only move around in the living area and are not allowed to run around on the edge of the Sky City.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the radio announced again: "Sky City is about to take off. Citizens of Green Town, please check the supplies at home and keep fragile items. The elderly and children, please sit in a safe position."
"Repeat, the city in the sky will soon..."
After staying in one place for a long time, they might actually get along and develop feelings for each other. When they came here, they had nothing.
The city in the sky was in tatters and almost fell from the sky!
When he left, although he was not very powerful, he still had a trump card to settle down.
This land is worthy of being the 18th civilization of mankind.
The human expedition team found 8 extraordinary plants, 22 mutant plants, 6 extraordinary animals, and 19 mutant animals from the ruins of the empire.
From the perspective of resources, the Mandala Empire died and the Green City was enriched - this is a truly good big brother.
Many people stand on the top of tall buildings and gaze affectionately into the distance.
How they long to live in such ease forever.
However, everyone knows that comfort is a luxury in this world.
For the future, for civilization, for ourselves...
Voyage is an inevitable choice!
"Huh... everyone is a little sad."
Before leaving, Lu Yuan also sent the king insect, Lu Da, to place a golden statue in the imperial palace.
There are some words written on the statue.
[To the great Mandala Empire!]
[This is a prosperous and fertile civilization that was completely destroyed because of a [demon] level disaster. 】
[We are human civilization. As latecomers, we have defeated the natural disasters here and obtained part of the wealth of the empire. 】
[We have to admit that these wealth are no more than precious oases in the desert, they have saved our confidence and our future.]
[To commemorate this great war, we have left some information about the Mandala Empire to those who come after us.]
[We should never come back, but we also hope that traces of the empire can exist forever - part of the history of the empire has also become part of us.]
In this statue, there are information on how to cultivate to the sixth level of extraordinary fire, as well as some simple glyph knowledge - if there is really a rookie civilization, it will really be a great wealth to find this statue.
Who knows what will happen in the future?
Maybe it was picked up by the civilization of the 10th or 11th era?
This may be Lu Yuan's own bad taste. Every time he passes by a place, he likes to leave some traces.
But to a certain extent, it is also for the "luck" of the "Ninth Era"!
Even a great existence like the Gear Civilization must leave some historical traces.
It's not a bad thing for humans to leave traces behind.
What's more, nothing will be lost with this gift of knowledge.
After doing all this, it's twelve o'clock at noon.
Lu Yuancai solemnly announced in front of the TV station: "I declare that the City in the Sky has officially set sail!"
After many years, the Pandora crystals inlaid on the walls began to shine one by one, and the gravity of all rocks in the entire city was being offset.
"Countdown, ten seconds..."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
The Sky City took off quickly and steadily!
Several propellers restarted, making a huge roar. Because of the slow development of physical technology, people still use large propellers.
The sea breeze from the ocean happens to be blowing to the north, which can bring subtle assistance.
After years of cultivation, the poppy tree has recovered a lot of its vitality, but it is impossible to restore it to its full glory. After all, it is just a tree stump now.
After evaluation by some people with "Plant Affinity" abilities, it is best to recuperate and recuperate for about one year for every 3,000 kilometers the Sky City sails.
Otherwise, its vitality will be overdrawn, and the time cost of raising it back will increase significantly.
It's not a big deal, it's fine to just stop and go.
Lu Yuan did not expect that the Sky City could fly directly back to the mother civilization of mankind. He had sensed in his dream that the location of the mother civilization of mankind might really be at the end of the world...
"The power grid is stable...the generator set is normal!"
"The poppy tree is stable and the energy circuit system is normal."
"Pandora Crystal Antigravity System is officially activated, and the gravity of the rock is being offset."
This time, no accidents occurred. As the city gradually rose, and after a smooth sailing, the restrictions on civilians were lifted.
More and more people came to the edge of the city and looked at the gradually rising height.
The crowd was divided again at this moment.
Some people feel a bit reluctant to leave. No matter what, they have lived here for thirty years... How many thirty years are there in life?
They all had red eyes and seemed very quiet at this moment.
But there were also many young people who started cheering loudly: "Hey——"
The loud voice spreads far, far away.
This is an ambition unique to young people.
The vast world, here we come!
…
…
Just like that, time passed quickly.
One month...
Two months...
Three months...
This voyage was relatively smooth. After all, humans have made much progress compared to thirty years ago.
Neither the power network nor the health of the poppy trees is what it used to be.
For the people, everything is as usual, they work when they should work, rest when they should rest, and go to school when they should go to school.
After seeing the scenery in the sky too much, I gradually got used to it - after all, the whole world is a desert, very monotonous.
In three months, the only possible risk was when the scouts saw a big red bird in the sky!
According to the observations of people with "clairvoyance" abilities, this big bird like a phoenix has a wingspan of 800 meters, and its flying speed is about 8 times the speed of sound, flying at an altitude of 50,000 meters.
It seemed to be aware of the presence of the poppy tree, but it did not launch an attack.
While this is a false alarm, it also reminds people, especially young people, that the water in this world is really deep, and what humans currently know is probably just the tip of the iceberg, so we must be more careful.
Three months later, the Sky City landed smoothly near the original "Sari Clan" ruins.
According to the plan, the city needs to stop here for a while, dig some oil, and dig out all the Pandora crystals in the ruins to prepare for future expansion.
In fact, everyone is afraid of poverty. The ruins of the Sky City are much richer than the outside world.
"How does it feel to return to your old place?" Lu Yuan smiled at his old subordinates.
The ruins of the Shali clan at this moment are long gone.
The old house was blown away by sandstorms for 30 years, and not a single thing was left behind.
Only the majestic ruins of the Sky City still stand in the vast desert.
The wind and sand blew on my face, burning it.
"Haha, Captain Lu, please don't bury Tai." The retired old man from Shasanli narrowed his eyes, "Who would still miss this place?"
Time really changes a lot.
Even for an old man like him, when he saw his "hometown", he just lamented the changes in the world, but he didn't feel nostalgic.
Who doesn’t want to live a better life?
Lu Yuan did not write any ink and immediately issued an order: "Comrades, let's start working according to the arrangements made at the meeting."
Today's human resources are 12 times more than before, and the work speed is naturally more than one level faster.
Many Zerg warriors have been awakened, including Leviathan, Mammoth, Drainer, and Burrower. These types have also joined the mining trend.
Poor Leviathan, the mammoth, is obviously a super war weapon, but because of its relatively mediocre food over the years, it has only grown to the size of an excavator.
And I don’t know why, but they seem to be kind-hearted. Every time they see a member of the engineering team, they always call out: "Biba"!
Does this seem to mean hello?
They also gradually got used to the life of working when they wake up.
Chapter completed!
