Chapter 408 Why can’t I control this hand?

 After Lu Yao sent Mao Cao and Totoro on the road, two more character icons appeared in the upper right corner. He clicked enthusiastically, only to receive a heartless response.

　　【The Western Paradise prohibits the prying eyes of gods. 】

 Damn, stingy.

Lu Yao was disappointed for a while.

In short, Mao Cao and their short journey to the bliss of the West are currently invisible.

 Lu Yao clicked on the exchange, searched for [Skeleton King’s Tomb], and found two of them for sale.

According to what the messenger said, He raised money just to purchase this wonder to help the Bone Ancestors achieve a rapid breakthrough in their thinking and abilities.

This wonder is not a commodity, even the low-level one is expensive.

 …

  「Skeleton King’s Tomb LV2」/2.25 million

 …

 【Skeleton King's Tomb LV2】: A wonder built by the Bone Ancestors to worship their kings. The corpses of at least three monarchs are stored inside. The tombs of kings of the past dynasties are accompanied by burial objects and their achievements and abilities during their lifetimes, which are symbols of the wisdom of the ancestors.

  【Bone Funeral】

 The ancestors of the Bones who offer sacrifices and worship to the tomb have a certain chance of receiving the blessing of the Skeleton King.

  【Revelation of the First Kings】

 Some of Skeleton King's abilities will be randomly retained on the tombstones of the mausoleum, becoming gifts for those who come after him.

 After receiving the blessing of the Skeleton King, you will be able to learn the abilities in the Book of Revelation. As the number of buried ancestor kings increases, the Book of Revelation will further grow, leaving more kings with the ability.

  Revelation: theology/inventor/commander/disguise/burn

 …

 This price is six times that of "Bone Graveyard".

 But there are reasons for being expensive.

Although the Tomb of the Skeleton King is not an outstanding spectacle, it has long-term growth potential. As long as more skeleton monarchs are buried in it, the abilities carried by these monarchs will also remain in the Book of Revelation and become the cultural heritage of the entire ethnic group.

 It can be called a snowball artifact.

 The only flaw is the randomness...which leaves no predictability in what abilities you have.

But the more Lu Yao looked at it, the more he liked it. He also had a clan of ancestors with bones. They were in Wugang, and they might be able to use it in the future.

 He double-clicked the mouse to take it down.

 After regaining consciousness, Lu Yao hit his mouse hand.

 Why can’t I control this hand?

 This is 2.25 million.

 Then Lu Yao discovered a small problem.

If the messenger hasn't bought it yet, he can buy another LV3 tomb, but he will have to pay 2.77 million, which is a high premium.

 No, no?

Lu Yao pays attention to the exchange market and clicks refresh from time to time.

After I bought the LV2 mausoleum, the price of the LV3 mausoleum actually increased, and the price became 2.85 million.

Lu Yao continues to refresh.

 After a while, a prompt appeared on the screen.

　　【The civilization supervisor you sent has arrived at the Sleepless Civilization. 】

  【You are welcome to check at any time. 】

 Lu Yao clicks on the character icon in the upper right corner.

　　The screen jumped to the top of Mao Cao, who was now in a vast different world.

 The world where the Sleepless Ones civilization is located is mostly land, with many rivers and lakes on the ground. The Resurrection Kingdom at the core of the civilization is built on a plain near the river.

 The Bone Mound is the center of the entire kingdom, surrounded by temples, palaces, barns, farmland, pastures, warehouses, low walls and other buildings.

  A small kingdom with hundreds of thousands of people, all the skeletons live together in the only city [Resurrection City].

Since the Bone Mounds have their own corruption, many farmlands and pastures have been moved to places farther away from Resurrection City to avoid the slowly expanding gray-brown land.

 Lu Yao was observing the overview of the world when suddenly a white light lit up, and a brand new building appeared opposite the bone mound.

Different from the scattered and dilapidated tombs, this building is grand and solemn, like a low white palace. There is a large skull wearing a crown on the top, with black eye sockets looking forward.

 The Tomb of the Skeleton King has landed.

 Lu Yao clicked and took a look. The wonder was displayed as LV3, and the abilities on the Apocalypse were exactly the same as those on sale. He looked through the exchange again, and the previous tomb was gone.

 If you just need something like this, it’s better to do it quickly.

 Perhaps the messenger originally wanted to buy a higher-end one?

Lu Yao decided not to care about such trivial matters.

Mao Cao has freedom of movement in the Resurrection Kingdom. He flies around on his Totoro and travels around the world. In the process it draws maps, marking special areas and geographies.

 The next step is to visit local civilized civilians to understand their living conditions.

Mao Cao's only big move in the early days was to build a temple in the city and build a statue of Lu Yao to show his identity and belief.

Lu Yao’s focus is on exchanges and cooperation among civilization chains.

 The productivity of the Resurrection Kingdom is low, not much better than that of the early Garlic Tribe, but there is a clear division of labor here. What little skeleton people are engaged in most is animal husbandry and farming.

 These livestock and grains were not needed by the White Bone Ancestors.

 After waiting patiently, Lu Yao saw a team arriving at Resurrection City.

 The team was led by an apostle named Boone. He was wearing a top hat, a majestic figure, and a black dress. Boone led a group of pointy-nosed goblins in fleece coats, followed by several strange wagons made of wood and metal.

Boone said to Theodore, the king who came to greet him and one of the local apostles: "Bring your livestock and grain over here and complete the settlement as soon as possible."

Theodore has a short head, wears a three-pointed crown, and has thick beard, which reminds Lu Yao of the dwarves of the Huolu tribe of the Yao tribe.

Boone showed a natural arrogance: "Unfortunately, the exchange items you provided this time are too poor. The cow and sheep skins are not shiny, and the sweet potatoes have traces of being gnawed by moths. Such quality does not meet the imperial standards... But consider Considering your low and backward civilization level, I express my sympathy and understanding, and will settle the corpses for you at a discount as much as possible."

"I hope that after resurrecting the kingdom, the output and quality will be increased, so that the empire will not suffer unnecessary losses, and the gods will not be worried about it."

 “Farewell.”

The goblins in Boone's convoy threw a pile of corpses from the car, loaded up the livestock and grain, and drove away.

After they left, King Theodore pulled out his sword and slashed it into the air: "This **** is arrogant and arrogant because he has the backing of the empire and gods! I've had enough!"

Appia, another apostle next to him, consoled him: "Boon is an apostle of the Twin Snakes Empire, the main civilization. The kingdom is a link in the civilization chain that provides livestock and food, and it is also the last in the ranking. There is nothing we can do about it."

“Boone spoke harshly, but not against the kingdom.”

She said: "He has this attitude toward subordinate civilizations other than the main civilization, and you know it."

 “I know, of course I know!”

Balls of anger emerged from Theodore's head: "He thinks other civilizations are garbage and barbarians, and the Twin Snakes Empire is the only center. I have tolerated him for many years. Ever since I became the king, I have been suffering from this Bastard’s anger!”

Maocao said: “Only when the kingdom becomes stronger can it be favored by the gods and no longer be restrained and coerced.”

 She made a series of suggestions.

 Theodore and Appia were silent again.

 …

Lu Yao gradually understood that the hierarchy within the civilization chain was strict. The Twin Snake Empire, the main civilization that directly belongs to the Messenger, enjoys the priority supply of almost all resources, and other subsidiary civilizations surround it and serve it. The Resurrection Kingdom is the bottom layer of the entire civilization chain.

 Is there any way to change the situation?

have.

 According to the two native apostles, Appias and Theodore. The ranking of the civilization chain is based on the development degree of the world's civilization.

 Having a larger population and showing stronger potential can improve its own civilization sequence.

  Anyway, it’s just a matter of going back and forth, competing for rankings and corresponding resources.

 Lu Yao took out a small salted cream cake from the refrigerator and ate it slowly with a spoon.

 As an investor, he mainly cares about reputation and not much else.

 The population of the Sleepless Civilization is growing slowly but steadily, so that's fine.

Lu Yaoqie returns to low-dimensional games.

 In the investment center, the ghost Bang Bang is also there.

Lu Yao controls the ghost to go over.

Seeing the sponsor, the messenger immediately moved all the way over and said: "Thanks to your investment, the Tomb of the Skeleton King was built, and now the civilization of the Sleepless Ones is growing faster... I just don't know who is also grabbing this wonder, so I bought it too expensive. A lot. Alas, a lot of unnecessary expenses.”

“But this also proves that the heroes have the same idea, and some people have also discovered the value of the lowland of the Bone Ancestors! Your lead investment has allowed two more investors to invest in the future, and the situation has improved!”

The messenger highlights one, and all feedback represents a positive signal.

 Lu Yao was speechless.

Brother is just a collector and has itchy hands. If he didn't have enough money, he would also like to get the Golden Light Cave in Qianyuan Mountain.

 At this moment, the simulator is displayed.

—A great god. There is a believer who has performed feats far beyond those of his peers. Do you need to transform him into a hero?

【whether】

 Lu Yao click on this article.

 The screen jumps to...the decayed land where the Sleepless Ones civilization is located.

 A skeleton man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and looking like a cowboy put away the bone crossbow in his hand and stuck it on his back.

It pressed the brim of its hat with its hand and said, "You are already dead."

Opposite, a four-armed monster with bone crossbows stuck in its body slowly fell down.

Lu Yao’s mood was a little complicated.

The messenger was still reporting good news to himself, the investor, and as a result, a hero of his own was born in his family.

 It’s really not my fault, it’s their own choice.
