Chapter 672: The Turtle-man's Double Exclamation
The Demon Sect, also known as the Mo Sect, excels in craftsmanship skills.
Like the first Jade Duomu, and the second and third Jade, all were renowned Master Craftsmen.
Generally speaking, these Great Craftsmen center their development on their own race and develop their powers to combat Epoch Disasters.
Some races are quite ambitious, being able to develop advanced civilizations, while others are not, willing to degenerate.
At that time, Jade could only cling to the pillar of the peak civilization of the Epoch—for example, the Fourth Epoch's Jade Brother Ma, if it weren't for his race being too weak, who would be willing to take the stinky feet of the Hebrew Civilization?
Like Lu Yuan entering the battlefield himself, it's the first time this powerful Jade appeared, and the Human Race seems to be the ambitious type...
"Combining the two really is unprecedented!"
Thinking about it like this, they became more and more satisfied, even unable to resist dancing with joy.
...
The mist gradually cleared.
Lu Yuan, who had bound three Demons, saw the group of Turtle People not far away and slightly cupped his fists to them: "Mission accomplished, a small victory."
Indeed, after the battle, the Turtle People became much quieter.
A trace of awe appeared in their eyes.
Gui Wu couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Lu Yuan defeated them seemingly effortlessly, I wonder how much strength you used?"
Lu Yuan released the three bound Demons: "On the attack front, I used about a tenth of my power; on the defense front, I used all my strength, it wasn't as easy as it seemed."
These words made the Turtle People more joyful, knowing that combat power isn't a linear relation.
There's an old saying: "With an increment of strength, combat power increases slightly; with two increments, combat power surpasses Heaven!"
Thus, if the strength is close, within 10%, victories can be mutual. But if the difference is 20%, it's basically one-sided.
The three Demons barely sustained damage and once again hid in the mist, having accepted the identity of Jade.
From now on, Lu Yuan could command them at will.
Lu Yuan gently exhaled and said to the Turtle People: "There's no need to make a fuss, on the surface I only used the Eternal Spark, but in reality, I used quite a lot of abilities, just that the entire process wasn't directly reflected in the battle."
"What do we need to showcase next? Craftsmanship skills? Or something else?"
Number 3 Turtle-man Gui Wu chuckled: "Please come visit our city."
Lu Yuan followed them into the Turtle City.
This city has about thirty thousand inhabitants, covering an area of 49 square kilometers, it's not large, but fully functional.
It's the quality, not quantity that matters, all thirty thousand residents have their own specialties.
Some Turtle People are passionate about the study of physics, others are passionate about craftsmanship, agriculture, breeding, and so on.
Gui Wu introduced: "Twenty-seven percent of the population are survivors of the Eighth Epoch, about nine thousand people."
"The remaining twenty-one thousand are mostly the new generation born in the Ninth Epoch."
"Aren't there any people from the Seventh or Sixth Epoch?" Lu Yuan asked.
Gui Wu smiled: "There are, but the numbers are very few, not exceeding a hundred. Even our Turtle Civilization cannot make most people's lifespans span across two epochs."
"Of course, if someone lives through more than two epochs, they can enter the top ranks."
"I see..." Lu Yuan nodded.
"The new generation we brought over are the most elite, including two hundred sixty-six craftsmen, among which eighteen are Craftsman Masters; three hundred fifty Rune Readers, and in other fields, a total of one thousand five hundred seventy-six with Divine Skills! Now, they have all become disciples of the Demon Sect, at your command."
This high-quality talent pool subtly amazed Lu Yuan.
This manpower alone is comparable to the well-developed Third-level Civilization.
Now they've all become the private army of the Mo Sect!
He mused to himself: "Handling private matters will become much easier in the future, no need to trouble the Lanpeng Civilization's remaining industrial capabilities..."
Gui Wu continued: "However, this batch of people doesn't know much information nor your real identity. In our introduction, you are the founder of 'Field Industrialization,' and the future leader of the Demon Sect—in their understanding, the Demon Sect is a craftsman organization created by an ancestor, and that's all."
"So at the time, you'll have to show them something."
Lu Yuan nodded, smiling: "No problem!"
The streets were spacious, with roads a hundred meters wide. The floors of the houses were several hundred meters high, allowing the tall Turtle People to live comfortably.
The Turtle People have long lifespans and devote themselves to their hobbies their entire life, which is their unique culture.
Their pace of life is slow and there are many old scholars; each with a straightforward and blunt personality.
The city's facilities are extremely luxurious, moving past ancient and modern architecture, the industrial area, agricultural area, residential area, and research area are clearly distinct, connected by high-speed railways, with many mechanical puppets.
Lu Yuan could distinctly feel that the ground beneath his feet was part of some Level Four engineering project.
This project is called 'Mind Harmonization Resonance,' capable of adjusting citizens' schedules, enhancing rest quality, and providing inspiration from the void.
Due to the high cost of the project, and lacking clear quantifiable data, Green Grass City had yet to fully implement this program.
