I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

In the eyes of the Mirage Cloud Dragon, a bitter emotion flickered.

It... was too old.

Utterly aged... it could no longer protect this ruin.

It was completely drained of strength, and could do nothing except slowly dissolve into the air, dissolve into the ocean.

Lu Yuan noticed that the creature had vanished again and, on guard, made his way unhurriedly towards the final building.

"Roar!" The Mirage Cloud Dragon reappeared, blocking the inevitable path ahead, pleading and weeping ceaselessly; it was hard to imagine such a large creature begging the diminutive Lu Yuan, but this scene was truly happening.

Out of its mouth, it exhaled white clouds of mist, which formed into winged humanoid figures.

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, unsure of what the other party was trying to do.

These clouds of mist kept multiplying and under the sunlight formed an amazing "Mirage."

There, volcanoes stood majestic, the city buzzed with traffic; sunrise splendor, sunset afterglow romantic; ocean waves painted like pictures, volcano magma golden... Mischievous children ran about in the park, while the aged rested in peace, the bustling civilization, the lively city, even the sky was exceptionally blue.

Truly, it was a city brimming with life, filled with hope!

The magma was not that overflowing back then, but it embraced an intoxicating era.

Thousands of years are like a vast ocean, but now the volcano's magma is about to spill over, civilization completely gone...

Only a dragon remains, waiting here, waiting for their return... return...

The Mirage Cloud Dragon had suffered a heavy spiritual attack, groggy, and after exhaling the white mist, simply couldn't hold on.

The Mirage too shattered, turning into a spread of real, dilapidated ruins and rubble.

Behind it, the only intact building was its last longing.

No entry...

for outsiders.

Absolutely not allowed!!

"Mr. Lu, maybe... let it go first?" Conch said softly, "It might still have a little memory of the Eighth Epoch, should have some value, and... that's just its nest after all."

"Give me some time, I should be able to calm it down..."

The voice also came through the earphones, it was Old Cat who spoke, "Comrade, if you could tame this dragon, wouldn't the treasures of the sea be at your disposal?!"

Lu Yuan frowned, Old Cat, what are you talking about?

How could this creature with such high loyalty be lured away by humans?

But... also couldn't think the Mirage Cloud Dragon was weak; it was just old and specifically countered by spiritual attacks.

Under ordinary circumstances, for treasure hunting, it was still enough.

Lu Yuan said, "Let it spit out the Undying Giant Turtle first!"

Conch hurriedly transmitted the message.

The Mirage Cloud Dragon understood and its abdomen began to inflate upwards like a balloon swelled.

Suddenly it opened its mouth and vomited upwards fiercely!

An object covered in liquid acid, a black mass, was regurgitated near Lu Yuan.

"Mr. Turtle, are you alright?"

"Oi, it's really dark in there!"

The Undying Giant Turtle was unharmed, scurried into the sea to bathe, cursing all the while, "Good brother, I kept thinking, how embarrassing it would be if I got pulled out, luckily you saved me. Scared the life out of Turtle Turtle."

"Cough cough... Mr. Turtle, I'm carrying a monitor, don't speak nonsense in public."

The Undying Giant Turtle immediately shut his mouth.

While the Mirage Cloud Dragon still watched them warily, slowly flying back to that giant "Bird's Nest," and collapsed there.

"Roar roar!"

Conch whispered, "It says, you have to keep your promise, it has already ejected the Undying Giant Turtle, so you can't enter its territory."

"I won't go in, just wander around outside while you calm it down, don't let it get agitated."

Lu Yuan casually found a building ruin and discovered a rusty object resembling a refrigerator.

And that dragon, coiled within the "Dragon Nest," closed its eyes to rest.

In no time, the snoring rang thunderous, it was unclear whether it was asleep or just feigning.

"Swoosh!" Lu Yuan suddenly noticed something had latched onto him and, upon closer inspection, it was a small metallic ball.

"Old Cat... what are you doing?"

"Tap tap tap!" The little ball bounced, seemingly urging.

Lu Yuan took out a robot cat body from his Storage Space and installed Old Cat in it.

"Keep it down."

"I'm going to see what's hidden in that Dragon Nest," Old Cat complained, twisting in its new uncomfortable body, unexpectedly without any tactile sense, quite unaccustomed.

As the highest-ranking artificial intelligence, it was adept at reconnaissance.

Lu Yuan slapped his forehead, remembering that it was always Old Cat who did the scouting a long time ago.

Old Cat said, "You guys look elsewhere and call down the Flying Squad, I'll scout alone."

"Alright."

Soon after, over a hundred flying squad members landed on the surface.

Feeling the terrifying Qi emanating from the Mirage Cloud Dragon, they instinctively tensed their muscles.

Don't think Lu Yuan had an easy time with it; the "Mirage Cloud Dragon" could effortlessly deal with them too, a few ice spikes could smash a person to death!

While the Mirage Cloud Dragon snored away, it cracked open one eye and stealthily sized everyone up.

"Roar!" Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Its temper flared subtly.

"What are you doing?" Lu Yuan barked.

Under the eaves, the dragon had no choice but to bow its head!

As long as these people weren't too excessive, picking up insignificant trash, it had no choice but to endure it.

Everyone was rubbing their hands excitedly, searching through the vast ruins of the city.
