In its heart, it thought, "This guy actually promises such heavy profits, could it be that he wants me to bear this share of karma?" "The Divine Skill is still manageable, but that ’Field Industrialization’ must involve significant karma... How can I, an Ancient Insect, be easily fooled?" This guy has lived for so many epochs, confused in small matters, but shrewd in big ones. But then it thought, "At the very least, I could earn six thousand civilization points..." "That’s six thousand... six thousand!" With six thousand points, its own offspring, the Underground Alliance, achieving a fourth-level civilization is almost a certainty. Even a Level 5 Civilization would no longer be just a dream. The Ancient Insect secretly cheered itself up, "Hmph, a bunch of garbage scoundrels sticking to this epoch, just making trouble here." "It’s not like it’s an Epoch Disaster, what am I afraid of? Even the Heavenly King himself coming would have to earn this money!" "Even if a Ghost comes, I’ll still have to claw the money out of its mouth!" After making up its mind, the Ancient Insect said in its deep voice, "Wait for a moment, I need to gather myself." "Ancient Insect Horn, come!" Instantly, the ground trembled, and the winds and clouds changed colors, that brilliant majestic horn shattered like glass. With a crisp "crack," various shards scattered all over the ground. Lu Yuan’s expression slightly changed, realizing for the first time that the big horn was merely for show. And a new horn was regenerating at a visible speed - this time it was genuine Immortal Level material, a weapon capable of penetrating all matter! At this moment, the entire body of the ancient giant insect radiated golden light, transforming into a Golden Saint Beetle, even the dents and bite marks on its shell rapidly recovered. A large group of insect race around, including those bizarrely shaped Mother Worms, all showed expressions of awe. In the underground rift, although the Ancient Insect was often nibbled by these Mother Worms, truly, it was the Ancient Insect revered from a combat power perspective. Such mythical strongmen capable of utilizing Luck are all top-notch experts. As long as they still hold Luck in their hands, they will not easily perish. So, the expected income of six thousand civilization points was indeed a great temptation. Lu Yuan curiously asked, "Senior, after all these years, why hasn’t that horn of yours grown back?" The original one was sold to Lu Yuan and made into the Earth Escape· Shuttle. "It grew back, and then I gave another to the Underground Alliance... Sold it to them for 500 points, but when I grow one it takes 900 civilization points." The Ancient Insect said sadly, "The savings in my hands are dwindling, now I can only throw my life into it to earn some money for the children..." "This kind of practice is not going to work, as your savings continue to shrink, your reach expands, and there are many that are negative assets, how will you control these civilizations in the future? Will they listen to you?" The Ancient Insect was at a loss for words. Lu Yuan said, "This time, I will give the money to Jin Bote, calling the Civilization Support Foundation to help you manage your finances. Otherwise, the Epoch Disaster hasn’t even arrived, and you will have already starved yourself to death." The Ancient Insect admitted that it wasn’t good with numbers, "Alright then, anyway I’m bad at math... My wallet has indeed collapsed recently." It turned around and shouted, "Children, join me on the expedition." Tens of millions of insects emerged from the soil, squeaking loudly, all these insects were elites, a formidable fighting force in the entire underground rift. Lu Yuan frowned, calculating in his mind as he watched that swarm of insect race spread across the mountains and plains. This time, a real battle is possible, the more insects, the better. For original chapters go to novel{f}ire.net But the cost of traveling such a long distance using the Earth Escape· Shuttle is not low. Transporting tens of millions of insects might require hundreds of trips back and forth, and he doesn’t have that much Spirit Essence! "Senior, just pick a few hundred elites to represent us!" "The transmission requires tickets, and I can’t afford it." The Ancient Insect snorted coldly, the children are willing to risk their lives, and you’re worried about expenses? But it also knew that precisely because of its lavish ways, its wallet ended up empty, "being stingy is the right choice." After discussing with the Mother Worms for a while, it recruited over twenty Worm Kings, plus more than a thousand worms with reproduction abilities, and said to Lu Yuan, "As long as you have enough food, within a month you can breed a large army!" "But this army will only bully low-level civilizations and won’t mean much to advanced ones..." "Rest assured, senior, our Green Grass City has one hundred years’ worth of food storage, donating a batch is definitely no problem." Lu Yuan pat his chest, guaranteeing. Thus, Lu Yuan, the Ancient Insect, along with a massive group of insect soldiers, returned to the Ruins of Buzhou through the Earth Escape· Shuttle. Ancient city walls, decaying pillars, floating on the meteorites, a gentle breeze wafting through. Everything seemed to return to that ancient epoch. The Ancient Insect gazed up at the sky, dazed for a moment. "This place... is nostalgic." A hint of nostalgia appeared in those enormous compound eyes. It is a remnant of the mythical Spirit of Demon, who knows how much memory it really retained... "Actually, even if the Myth of Demon struck at that time, it was still unbeatable... Can you believe it?" The Ancient Insect added some self-respect, "It just regretted not having died heroically on the battlefield instead of living on a little longer." Lu Yuan said nothing, whether he believed it or not, the past was like the dust and had long dissipated in the wind. Soon, the Lücao Government learned of their arrival, and some high-ranking government officials and military leaders walked out of the city to greet the Ancient Insect. Many of the younger generation were seeing it for the first time, each gazing at this mountain-like mythical strongman with curiosity. With this powerful reinforcements willing to take the lead, everyone was greatly relieved.
