Chapter 1069: Old Subordinates

......." The fat man grumbled."Actually, we still have some here. We just packed it up and planned to bring some back for Dad to try. You can eat it, but you're not allowed to finish it all!" Tang Wen.........

At that time, Lu Cheng didn't particularly want to land directly.

When facing celestial bodies of alien civilizations, it is necessary to calculate the size of gravity and detect unknown risks, among other things.

But during the detection, Ah Qing reported that in front of them, it could possibly be a man-made celestial body.

Artificial celestial bodies, as the name suggests, are celestial bodies created by humans.

Human race!

Lu Cheng had used his divine sense to probe for over three months, and discovered that the celestial body before him contained all sorts of humans.

This is a human nomadic group.

The nomadic tribe's ark, in pursuit of drifting meteorites, possesses immense gravitational pull. While its landing was not entirely smooth, it proved no challenge for the new era's sophisticated Jingwei spacecraft.

After a year of turmoil, Lu Cheng quietly fell.

And just at the moment it was falling.

Lu Cheng's lost memories suddenly began to return.

Even a fairy's divine sense has its limits, Lu Cheng wouldn't retain memories for too long.

But at this moment, regarding the Calamity Corps...Great West Continent...Loyalist Expeditionary Force...Needle of Calamity!

One by one, memories come to mind.

After the war, the world of Daxi changed drastically. Global rejection reached its peak, forcing Lu Cheng to return through a piercing channel. But... under his influence, perhaps an old card world was preserved.

and has developed to this day.

Lu Cheng didn't know that the two elder statesmen of Yin Xuan had been fighting in a separate four-dimensional space for tens of thousands of years.

This is too magical.

If that's the case, then the deity worshipped by this human nomadic tribe is actually... themselves!

Lu Cheng was eager to understand the social ecology here, and he learned about it in a few days.

Here, the card masters revere a type of card called "Great Demon" as their weapon.

After the Battle of Sunset, the great demons helped the human mage Nan in his campaigns north and south, fighting their way out of encirclement.

Here, Lu Cheng also learned the exact news of the Third Dynasty's demise.

Later, humans formed a collective and drifted about.

But there is a fundamental difference from the sandy areas.

......

Strolling along the Ark Street, Lu Cheng only felt that the space here was extremely cramped and that the people's livelihood was backward.

Now the Sand Realm utilizes spiritual energy conduits for everyday use. Commoners also have access to civilian airships and flying boats.

Here, none of that exists.

These people are struggling to survive, gathering all available resources and collectively building a deck of 40,000 cards called the "Eternal Ark".

And out of the four thousand cards, only over thirty are domain cards.

The four cards of the domain master, arranged horizontally and vertically, built the four walls of the ark.

They also formed the upper-tier card game.

In his eyes, the Eternal Clan's flagship... its lifespan was coming to an end.

To harvest more resources, artificial gravity was enhanced, but this also resulted in the Quadrants being battered and dilapidated.

And, the card iteration speed is slow.

Separating from the huge expansion pack, the technology and mythological background have fallen seriously behind.

However, unlike the relatively peaceful sand dunes, in terms of combat strength alone, they are definitely a mid-tier force among humans.

The roadside old man who peddled Huzhong Yao to Lu Cheng was still bragging, endlessly recounting the true or false history of the eternal human race to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng was just lost in thought, and didn't hear a word.

For "The Demon in the Pot", I really do want to buy a copy to study it.

"How much is this"

"1 Star Energy Card, as described."

Lu Cheng awkwardly smiled.

The Eternal Human Tribe barters.

But the currency they commonly use is still energy cards.......Lu Cheng doesn't have that denomination.

You can't just pull a [Kunlun Immortal Qi] card from the engine, can you

This is too eye-catching.

The only way is to wave it away.

........

Keep moving forward and learn about the eternal human society.

Lu Cheng discovered that the human combatants on the Eternal Ark were extremely powerful.

They have a set of old yokai and gu cards.

However, after thousands of years of war and baptism, it can still exist today, which itself explains its tenacity.

They could even sense nearby humans and come to their aid...

Lü Cheng learned from the street that three hundred years ago, the Eternal Human race detected a war between the Spiritual Species (Bai Yu Jing and Tao Yuan Human Race) and rushed over immediately.

The Eternal Ark is actually here to support Bai Yujing...

Unbelievable!

According to Lu Cheng's analysis, the situation for the Eternal Human Race is difficult and their development is limited, even though they claim to be saving humanity.

It's possible that this is about empathizing with fellow sufferers and using the opportunity to absorb new talent.

What they probably want most is to be humanity's savior, find an expansion pack suitable for humans, and thus continue to exist.

This is the reason for rescue.

However, since things are based on evidence rather than intent, the fact that they have truly arrived is enough. ..................

The concept of "military" and "demon" here are all from me, you could say they are old friends.

Although Lu Cheng couldn't directly expose Baiyujing to them rashly, there was nothing stopping him from giving them some practical help.

Back then, he left without a word, leaving behind an old subordinate who fought in the north and south.

I happen to have money and skills right now, but no one...

If it could...

"You desire to seize this territory, don't you"

The voice of the Cave Master of Thought echoed in her divine sense.

"How is it taking"

This woman is still so rude.

The Eternal Tribe is in grave danger. Their supplies of energy and consumables are running low, and if they experience another attack by alien predators, this human tribe may be wiped out from history.

This is obviously a rescue!

"The Eternal Clan still venerates scorpion statues, these totems are everywhere I look, and I can feel them...but...I cannot draw strength from them." The pipa's voice rose again.

Lu Cheng glanced at the ramen.

Strange.

The experience points of 【Bipa Cave Master】 did not increase at all.

That's not right......!

Let me know.

.......

.......

The Eternal Ark, the Heavenly Palace.

Four domain lords gather here to hold a military conference.

Aiding fellow sufferers is clearly out of the question.

Regardless of the outcome, this star region is now a dead silence.

It has no valuable celestial bodies.....

"I went for a run in vain."

The Eternal Ark is running low on energy.

The population is large, and too many cards have been raised.

Relying on a batch of old energy pyramids left by the Third Dynasty, it is difficult to develop.

The Eternal tribe is not afraid of war, but... they are afraid that their cards will no longer be able to iterate.

In the next millennium, the opponents we encounter are likely to be unbeatable.

If we can rescue our kind this time, we might be able to recruit a new force. It would be best if we could find an expansion pack suitable for human use, that way we'd have a fighting chance....

It's a pity....

It seems their war is finally over, everything is desolate, and all the energy was wasted.

"Within three turns, we might not have enough cards to offer the Calamity Needle."

After Ragnarok, the disasters recede.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Disaster Legion Commander Liya, besides offering incense to the [Queen Bee], she never forgot to offer incense to the true god, the Twilight Demon King, [The Needle of Calamity].

After Liya's death.

The Disaster Legion is gradually declining.

However, to this day, the human race of the Ark of Eternity has not forgotten to offer a large amount of resources to the Heavenly Altar every round. This act has lasted for twenty thousand years.

Diligent and hardworking.

The Calamity Needle will not return.

But this might be the only way for them without giant expansion packs to access the unlimited card pool..........

Unfortunately, I have yet to receive any response.

The crisis is not limited to this.

The next war match is about to begin....

The Four Kings know deep down that the Eternal Human Race might not be able to hold on much longer....

"My Lords," the eldest of the Four Kings rose. "I know this is out of place, but we must abandon the idea of finding the so-called 'orthodox' Xia mythology from [The Calamity Needle]... There might not even be such a myth in the world. Our ancestors created this story to inspire us to move forward... But that's enough! We should return to the Core Zone and seek the orthodox myths of the Golden Age from the ruins of the fallen Third Dynasty... Change our allegiance."Chéng created the demonic energy himself, we can save ourselves the effort. Why don't we use this incident as a turning point and rewrite the laws of time, depicting another flourishing Tang Dynasty!"...
