286: The box is also a treasure!

“Preparation? No preparation needed, just continue as usual,” Lin Yang shook his head, then instructed, “The only thing you need to do is not reveal any abnormalities, lest they see through you. When the day approaches for them to descend and collect the sacrificial offerings, I will hide in advance. If they are not strong, I will act on the spot. If I am no match, I will endure for now and wait for the opportunity.”

“Understood, my Lord. I will arrange everything for my tribesmen and ensure nothing is exposed!” The elder quickly agreed.

“Go make the arrangements. For now, my Apocalypse will be parked here. You can come directly if you have anything,” Lin Yang said.

“Understood, my Lord. You can also give orders anytime,” the elder bowed and left.

Afterward, no one knew what he said to his tribesmen, but the people in the tribe gradually moved away from the Apocalypse area.

Only Gen and a few strong men remained nearby.

“Lin Mu, begin repairing the Apocalypse. You’ll have a tough time ahead,” Lin Yang walked back into the Apocalypse and said to Lin Mu.

“It is my honor to serve Commander,” Lin Mu immediately took some materials and began repairing the Apocalypse.

Lin Yang, on the other hand, opened the stone box again and had the System analyze its material.

A material that could block the characteristics of extraordinary characteristic material was probably no less valuable than the extraordinary characteristic material itself.

And it was indeed so.

As the System detected, it quickly exclaimed, “Host, the material of this box is very special. The System cannot yet detect its specific composition, but it can be confirmed that this box itself can indeed be considered a treasure.”

“Is it truly a treasure as well?” Lin Yang’s eyes lit up.

“Yes, Host. In civilizations capable of creating extraordinary characteristic material, preserving extraordinary characteristic material also requires a high price. Therefore, extraordinary characteristic material is usually put into use immediately after being created. This stone box looks ordinary, yet it has the effect of blocking the characteristics of extraordinary characteristic material, and it is not a one-time item. If this stone box were sold to civilizations capable of creating extraordinary characteristic material, it would surely fetch a sky-high price!”

The System’s words carried a hint of pleasant surprise.

“It seems we’ve truly made a huge profit this time. I just don’t know how the ancestors of this tribe knew how precious extraordinary characteristic material was, or how they made this stone box,” Lin Yang recalled some of the elder’s previous words, feeling a little confused.

The elder had said that according to their ancestors’ records, as long as they presented this supreme divine stone, they would surely receive the protection of the Gods, or the Aliens, which made him a little confused.

How did the ancestors of this tribe know that extraordinary characteristic material was precious among Aliens?

Furthermore, how did they discover this extraordinary characteristic material?

They not only discovered extraordinary characteristic material but also knew that this item was extremely precious among Aliens.

Lin Yang even suspected whether this tribe had previously come into contact with those terrifying supreme civilizations.

“Host, are you really going to help them with the migration?” The System suddenly asked.

“If I can help, of course I will,” Lin Yang nodded directly.

He had already accepted the items, so as long as it was within his capabilities, he would definitely help.

He was not a black-hearted bandit who only took money and did nothing.

Besides, getting paid for a job was also a rule.

“Host, the System has detected some special animals on this planet that may meet the conditions for completing the second phase of Academician’s Dream series missions. You can try to collect them.”

The System did not continue the previous topic but reminded Lin Yang to collect animals.

“…Collect animals now?” Lin Yang pouted, “We’re not even sure if we’ve returned to the Original Universe yet. If we haven’t successfully returned to the Original Universe and still need to cross the spatial barrier, collecting animals now and crossing the spatial barrier would just turn them into corpses, which is pointless.”

“Host, based on preliminary analysis, the System believes there is over a sixty percent chance that we have successfully returned to the Original Universe.”

“Oh? Are you sure?” Lin Yang was instantly overjoyed.

“Responding to Host, the System cannot be completely certain yet and requires more data to support it. Once the other Alien fleets arrive in two months, the System will be able to draw a final conclusion.”

“Then we’ll wait until it’s confirmed in two months before collecting special animals. Catching them now would just be an extra hassle to take care of,” Lin Yang said.

“Understood, Host.” The System said no more.

“My Lord, it’s getting late. This is dinner made by my tribe. Please enjoy.”

The elder’s voice suddenly came from outside the Apocalypse.

At this time, the old man was holding a steaming clay pot and calling out from outside.

Inside the pot were various kinds of stewed meat.

Lin Yang walked out of the cabin, and the elder immediately handed over the clay pot, which was full of meat.

Lin Yang glanced at him. Although this barbaric era did not lack various animals, successful hunting was still relatively difficult.

This pot of meat was probably the ration that an adult strong man in this tribe would only get after several days.

“You don’t have to do this. I said I would help you, and I won’t break my word,” Lin Yang saw through the old man’s intention.

He was clearly trying to curry favor with himself.

Although, trying to curry favor with a pot of meat sounded ridiculous.

However, for such a primitive tribe, this was almost the most heartfelt thing they could offer.

Upon hearing this, the elder seemed to have already known Lin Yang would say this, and he did not force Lin Yang to accept it, but bowed and left.

Clearly, the old man himself knew very well that these meats would never catch the eye of the Gods.

He was just expressing his and the tribe’s willingness to dedicate everything.

“Wait a moment,” Lin Yang thought for a moment and called out to the old man. Under the latter’s puzzled gaze, he said,

“Although I cannot teach you technology now, I can impart some basic life knowledge. In the future, do not prepare food like this anymore.”

With that, Lin Yang began to instruct them on how to better prepare food, how to hunt more effectively, and so on.

A month passed in a flash.

The Apocalypse had been mostly repaired and had basically recovered some navigation capabilities.

And in this month, Lin Yang had taught the tribe many things.

Although none of them were technological, they had improved the tribe’s living standards by more than a hundredfold.

In the hearts of the tribesmen, he had been revered as a true God.

Finally, after another half a month, the Apocalypse was fully repaired.

And the System also detected Alien Apocalypses entering the detection range.

This meant that the people of that Alien civilization had come to collect sacrificial offerings again!

Lin Yang immediately told this news to the tribesmen. The tribesmen, who had been living a happy life for over a month, instantly fell silent.
