Lu Yao clicks on Flower Boat words.
……
【Flower Boat】: A refined carrier created by the Uzi Clan led by Uluru based on the Ground Boat, capable of travelling slowly on flat ground. Can be loaded with [Mild Green Roses*3].
Life Value: 803/803
Mana: 0/0
Damage: 5 (*3)
Defence: 2
Speed: 4
……
The Flower Boat is modelled after a medium-sized shuttle-shaped ground boat, except that it has three green roses planted on its hull, making it look like some sort of peculiar chimney.
The panel is pretty mediocre except for the life value, which represents durability, which is pretty good: slow speed, low defence, and complete dependence on the three rose turrets loaded for damage.
The (*3) in the panel represents three damage-creating roses, not stacking their attacks.
Lu Yao observed how it travelled on the ground and found that the effect was not bad.
Although the Flower Boat was slow, it moved smoothly outside of the Crystal City, and it wasn’t unwieldy whether steering or moving in and out. This was thanks to the excellent Wuzhi pilots, as well as the Wu Elemental in its inner core structure.
The Killing Flying Locusts tried to attack this large, suspicious living creature.
They charged straight at the most visible green rose, and the threatened rose instantly transformed into a turret, spikes spewing out, shooting a single locust out of the air and sending a large number of bugs rustling to the ground.
After the heavy deaths and injuries, the locust swarms had to give up their attack and turned to coaxing the corpses of their dead counterparts – to the locust swarms, wasting food was a shameful thing to do.
The birth of the Flower Boat gave Crystal City a safe house that stretched outwards. Farmers travelled in the flower boats to the abandoned farmlands outside the city, replanted the fields, sprinkled rose seeds, and watched over the green roses as they grew.
As a gentle green rose grew branches and bloomed petals, the roses took the land back from the locust swarm little by little, and they became the most reliable guards and barriers.
The beauty of it was that Crystal City currently had just one flower boat.
It wasn’t too easy to build such a fine carrier, and the Uzi team was polishing a second one, but the progress was slow.
Lu Yao was optimistic about the future prospects of the Flower Boat.
As the Earthbound Boat technology continued to expand, Pinkman cultivated more diverse roses, and they combined into the Rose Cannon Carrier, which would have a vast display stage in this world.
Uluru invented the first refined vehicle, pioneering the Yao civilisation.
The prompts on the simulator continued.
[The Crystal City Ghost Lighthouse has the beginnings of an evolution.]
[Please ask if the spectacle is to be evolved.]
[Yes] [No]
Lu Yao immediately clicked yes.
After the white light, this magnificent lighthouse that had been transformed with the Emperor’s Palace and the Divine Palace at the top suddenly took on new abilities.
……
[Ghost Academy LV2]: a special wonder born of the Crystal City, the abode of the ghosts, able to resist the gravitational pull of the Sea of Miasma.
In the city where it is located, humans have a certain probability of comprehending the [Psychic] ability, and the city’s security is slightly improved.
The Ghost Academy has a certain probability of giving birth to [Ghost Scholars] and [Ghost Warriors].
……
The last time the spectacle advanced, it was still the Colosseum evolving into a theatre.
The Spectre Academy was an advanced version of the Spectre Lighthouse, with the lighthouse’s abilities retained intact, and there were new outputs.
Lu Yao had gained some new insights from these two samples.
The evolution of the wonders themselves was based on their audience, and they would evolve in whichever direction the audience wanted. In the end, wonders were masterpieces of the times created by groups of believers.
So, while the Colosseum became a theatre by the demand of the people of Yao City, Crystal City was the home base of the spectres, so the Spectre Lighthouse went one step further and became the Spectre Academy.
Lu Yao clicked on the two new professions in the words of the Academy.
After a while, he saw the first Ghost Scholar.
This Ghost named [Glass Sound] was lecturing by the bonfire on the top floor of the Academy Hall.
“Cities are built on the foundation of the most important building, the idol or shrine, and based on the order and blessings brought by the buildings of the gods, the city gradually emerges with various buildings full of rituals, which are the original traditions and the beginnings of the order of the city ……”
One more personal ability for Glass Sound.
……
[Spectral Scholar]: a scholar who has acquired much knowledge in the Spectral Academy and is happy to impart and communicate it.
……
Lu Yao looked delighted.
This one was good!
Nowadays, the Ghost Academy’s public lectures were synchronised for Yao City, Salt City and Saniro, which was equivalent to the Ghost Scholars’ continuous TED Talks.
This had long-lasting benefits for all groups willing to learn knowledge.
Lu Yao clicked on the Ghost Warrior phrase at regular intervals for a while, before waiting for the first case to be born.
This pixelated villain was called [Nongbase], a Yao of the right roots.
His personal history showed that because of a disease that caused Nongbase’s modest possessions to be consumed, and the farmland that had been cultivated for many years was lost, so Nongbase came to Crystal City in search of opportunities.
As it turned out, the farmer had little luck and encountered a swarm of locusts on his first trip out of the city. He finally ran back desperately, but was too badly injured and died anyway.
……
[Yao Clan LV5] Farmer Base
Life Value: 61/61
Mana: 12/12
Damage: 3
Defence: 2
Speed: 5
[Evasion
Can evade damage caused by some attacks. The probability of this is higher when compared to one’s weaker beings.
[Ghost Warrior]
Having learnt many combat skills at the Ghost Academy, he is initially able to grow quickly from combat and training.
[Avenger].
+1 damage to a vengeful object, with the avenger being [Killing Flying Locust].
……
As soon as Nongbase left the city, he started his path of vengeance and easily killed a few Killing Flying Locusts. However, he was soon surrounded by a swarm of locusts and ended up fleeing all the way back to Crystal City in a sorry state.
He turned into another wonder [Underground Drill Ground] to practice hard.
In less than ten minutes, the Farmer’s Base actually had a LVup↑ icon appear above his head, rising to LV6.
Lu Yao realised that the greatest value of the [Ghost Warrior] was the early soaring boost.
So, was it possible that it could continue to improve as long as it was consistently rehearsed?
Lu Yao soon realised that this was not the case.
The Nongbase had been practised up to LV10, and there was no more effect behind it.
The idea box also surfaced above the villain’s head.
“It seems that this is already the limit, to go further you’ll have to use other methods.”
Nongbase once again left the city and began to carefully hunt the Locust Swarm.
Lu Yao checked three Ghost Warriors in a row and found that they all had the same process, coming out and entering the [Underground Drill Ground] sooner or later, then raising to LV10 to leave.
To put it simply, the [Ghost Warrior] trait allowed this part of the ghosts to quickly ascend to LV10. However, from then onwards, there were no more bonuses, and like Martial Cultivators, they needed all sorts of opportunities in order to advance further.
Just as Lu Yao was checking the current status of Crystal City, a reminder popped up on the game interface.
[The world is about to undergo an Era Update, all the gods in this world are about to be forcibly ejected and slumbered, the estimated update time is 72 hours.]
[Update countdown: 60:00.]
A new Era was about to arrive.
Lu Yao immediately made the appropriate arrangements.
The last Era update he was apprehensive, this time he had more anticipation and relaxation in his heart.
It would be best to have more races, both strong and weak, and the world borders expanded a bit more, a little bit of everything, the more the merrier.
I don’t know if it was because the Yao world was too strong, but the trainee god players hadn’t been refreshed here for a long time.
Lu Yao kind of missed the days of interacting with them.
