Chapter 1227: Chapter 1227

Numerous civilizations were once again enticed.

They more or less benefited from the inheritance of the Gear Civilization.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, for he knew why these civilizations willingly abandoned their wealth—if not discarded, they would be cursed by the Pangu Continent and unable to escape!

With several thousand kilometers of water depth and boiling seawater, it’s as hard as reaching the sky for materialist robots to function normally.

"It’s simply a perfect place tailor-made for me, the Greedy Demon God!"

Next, the Alien Group reported several valuable space tunnels.

This thing is indeed a big investment with big returns! It made one’s blood boil, wishing to start mining the next second!

The Pangu Continent is so vast, with many places where wealth is concentrated, including Antarctica, the deep sea, the relics of various Sixth-level Civilizations, and even those of the Seventh-level Civilizations.

But then again, the Ruins of Buzhou are so large, with thirty thousand civilizations gathered together, that even great wealth, when divided by thirty thousand, becomes insignificant.

"Only the relics of the Eighth Epoch are worth searching... The relics from the previous epochs should not hold much value."

"Indeed, but how to distribute the proceeds?"

"It can be done through a bidding process."

Before even discovering the relics, the civilizations began discussing distribution matters, making Lu Yuan quite speechless.

But the truth was, indeed, that discussing matters after finding the relics would be too late.

"I think the underground rift leading to the Insect Race Emperor’s homeland is also a good destination." The leader of the March Civilization emitted an electronic voice, "That space tunnel connects multiple destinations in one go, with relatively stable returns."

"The other destinations carry a gamble."

The Ancient Insect was startled; these guys were actually targeting the corpse of the Myth of Demons!

The Underground Alliance is just a Third-level Civilization; they can’t be devoured alive by you, right?

However, on second thoughts, it wasn’t impossible.

I, the Ancient Insect, will oversee, allowing the Underground Alliance to have more exposure to external civilizations; perhaps they would grow!

[Sure!] Its Holy Horn shone brilliantly, [My underground rift produces many high-quality minerals, insect race materials, and underground mushrooms, being a good place.]

Suddenly, it heard Lu Yuan’s voice from within the Immortal Palace: "Senior, did the Underground Alliance leave the rift?"

The Ancient Insect sounded a bit irritable: "Can you stop mentioning this!!"

"Senior, do you no longer favor the Underground Alliance? You have abandoned them!"

"Hmph... they are my lifesavers, I will take care of them."

At this moment, an elder of the Iron Key Race expressed his opinion: "I also agree with the perspective of the Insect Race Emperor; that tunnel passes through the homeland of the Iron Key Race, the insect rift, and finally leads to a great desert called ’Kusi’ dry desert." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI(F)ire.net

"That desert was once a lush primitive forest during the Fifth Epoch; unfortunately, after the epoch war, nothing remains. Its area rivals the Ruins of Buzhou, with temperatures annually ranging between 60-80 degrees Celsius, also a rarely trodden place."

"The mineral resources contained within, though not comparable to the South Pole and the deep sea, are the easiest for us to extract. Various coals and oils are not lacking."

He paused for a moment, "Moreover, this tunnel passes through our Iron Key Civilization, if there’s a desire to save the Pangu Continent, the Moon is the key to the future... this space tunnel must eventually be opened."

"The main goal of our Buzhou Alliance is to jointly combat the epoch disasters; I hope everyone agrees."

In the remote conference room, there was a moment of silence.

For most civilizations, saving the Pangu Continent was too distant... epoch disasters or whatever, there weren’t many pre-plans.

The extraction difficulty of the great desert is indeed low, but it’s very likely to have been raided by past civilizations...

With this in mind, they were still more inclined to explore the space tunnels in the resource-rich areas.

"Our Iron Key Race also has a small gathering place." The bearded stranger continued, "Though not comparable to the Ruins of Buzhou, it still hosts hundreds of civilizations, including Fourth-level Civilizations, and our Iron Key Civilization also has some devices left from the Level 5 Civilizations available for research."

"Mutual exchange and complementing each other is a long-term benefit too."

"Moreover, this tunnel links three destinations at once, and the great desert eventually leads to contains minable minerals."

The Iron Key Race possesses the inheritance of the Thick Earth Civilization, their strength on par with the Turtle Civilization.

The Level 5 relics in their possession are purely equipment of the material domain, whose research value is indeed much higher than that of idealistic items—for Fourth-level civilizations, this is very tempting.

The bearded old man slowly stated, "There are very few untapped virgin lands in the Pangu Continent aside from those extremely difficult to extract areas; other resource-rich regions might very well be the resting places of anomalies like [Demon] and [Ghost]. If you have the confidence to challenge these powerful anomalies, I won’t object either."

"We don’t have the capability to develop Antarctica or the deep moon sea... or rather, only a handful of civilizations have the capability, then again it would lead to a situation of not worrying about scarcity but inequality."

Gui Wu also said, "That’s right, space tunnels won’t only develop one. We should first find a stable income to grow stronger, then consider more long-term matters."

These words were reasonable and well-founded, and most civilizations were persuaded.

"The tunnel leading to the insect rift..."

Lu Yuan glanced at the map and suddenly realized that the direction of this space tunnel was remarkably close to the location of the Human Mother Civilization!

"Indeed, Green Grass City initially went through the underground rift, actually in search of a way back home."
