National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

That night, the Naga tribe indeed didn't dare to come again.

Ivan went to investigate early the next morning, but he didn't even see a snake's tail. It seems he was terrified and ran back overnight.

However, in this way

Everyone knew that they didn't have much time left.

Aurora busied herself making a sturdy backpack for each of them to carry their local specialties.

Exploding cantaloupes and Molotov cocktails.

After Ethan's examination, they finally learned the 'name' of the exploding melon that had performed so many miraculous feats:

The Tremor-Tremor Fruit

[Characteristics: The interior is filled with high-pressure, unstable liquid energy, which will cause a wide-ranging impact after being subjected to an earthquake.]

[Comment: This Tremor-Tremor Fruit is not the same as the Tremor-Tremor Fruit. Anyone who wants to try it... they'll suffer terribly o(*￣︶￣*)o. PS: When using it, please shout "Whitebeard is the best!"]

"..."

Once the identification is complete, the plant information is shared with them.

Ivan disgustedly wrapped up the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, stacked it in his backpack, and muttered, "Whitebeard was already the best in the world..."

With Ethan as a human translator,

The efficiency of communication with cave dwellers is now eight hundred levels higher.

They no longer need to understand through complex and abstract body language and then be conveyed by the Dalabengba; instead, they receive instructions directly, clearly, and accurately.

"Move all the food to Cave 6."

"Put the weapons and tools in stone chamber number 3."

"Use moss, yes, the kind that glows! Spread it all over Cave 10."

In an instant, hundreds of cave dwellers and cave monsters, like worker ants, orderly carried away the supplies they had stockpiled to escape the Naga.

In order to prepare for the possible imminent invasion of a large army of snake people,

They need to be fully prepared—

The entire tribe retreated to deeper, colder, and more complex underground caves for survival.

Because everyone knows that those cold-blooded Nagas become sluggish and much weaker in extremely cold environments.

Ethan plays the role of overseer.

He strolled around with his hands behind his back, like an old scholar.

But his explorer's instincts piqued his interest in the vast underground cavern, so he greeted Dala Bengba and began exploring the gradually emptying caverns of the cave dwellers on his own.

The air circulation is good, and the rock face is very smooth, showing signs of long-term habitation.

With over ten years of experience in tomb raiding...

wrong.

Based on exploration experience, this species has lived and thrived here for at least five hundred years.

However, the wall is very new, as if it had been rebuilt.

And the bold yet vivid patterns on it...

It's a mural!

Ethan stopped in his tracks.

The first image shows a small winged figure descending from the sky, holding a short black stick. Below him, many small snake-like figures are lying haphazardly on the ground.

It seems the cavemen and the Naga are sworn enemies?

Ethan continued walking forward.

The style of the second mural changed, becoming noticeably more refined and impressionistic, filled with a hazy, epic feel.

The painting depicts a sky torn open, with a beam of light shining down from the crack, enveloping a small figure standing on a mountain of bones with outstretched arms, exuding solemnity and holiness.

Could this be a legend about their origin?

Or was it some kind of sacrificial ritual?

These primitive murals are the most direct historical materials for studying a civilization, and Ethan felt his adventurous blood boiling.

He couldn't wait to get to the third mural:

The background of this painting is a deep black, representing endless darkness, with about a dozen twisted lines faintly drawn, like tentacles.

In the very center is still that little figure, holding a radiant sphere in both hands.

As can be seen from the painting, the sphere resembles a sun, its piercing light driving back the darkness and tentacles.

This is......

Is it describing a war against an unknown evil god?

Ethan became more and more fascinated as he looked at it.

When these murals are pieced together, they form a heroic history of a cave-dwelling tribe.

The gods descended and drove away the enemy.

Divine light blesses new life.

Then, raising the sun to fight against the abyss...

This is extremely valuable for research!

He immediately pulled out his simple little notebook, bound together with hard leather, from his pocket, and found a finely polished charcoal pencil, carefully tracing the mural.

Isantor's extreme focus,

But at this moment, the Chinese viewers watching the sunset country's split-screen video were already laughing so hard they were pounding their tables:

[Hahahaha! I'm dying of laughter... Is that little black stick a raven?]

[And the second one? Divine light shining everywhere?]

[Blind guess: This is the scene where the pro player cleared out the goblin bones... I've beautified it a bit (I'm sure)]

[The third picture is of the little Jiu relative in the wishing well.]

[Centuries later, "Mommy, Mommy, I still want to hear the story of the Sun God's epic battle against the Deep Sea Demon God, Xiao Jiu!"]

[Isn't the funniest thing that this guy actually took the rubbing seriously? Hahaha...]

The ground is completely unaware of this.

Xiao Jiu ran off with Aurora and Ivan because they were sorting through the plants Ethan had identified, and Xiao Jiu wanted to try them out.

While Xiao Jiu was away,

Renyi should quickly take out the [Naga Gallbladder] obtained from dismantling the Naga corpse.

He originally thought this thing would be similar to snake gallbladder, something that could be used to detoxify or soak in alcohol.

When I got it in my hands, I saw...

This thing looks like a large green pearl; it has a nice texture, but it's not very pretty, and it doesn't smell very good.

The courage of the Naga race

[Review: The inner core of the Naga race... a demon core. Want to become a peerless master? Eat it! Friendly reminder: doing so will most likely give you the experience of turning into a giant flower, but it's a one-time thing. PS: A certain drunkard did indeed consider using the largest one to make liquor.]

"..."

Oh.

Inner alchemy, to put it simply, is it a kind of highly concentrated energy crystal?

He probably won't need it, but Klaus might be able to use it to make something.

He stood up casually, patted his pants, and walked towards the other end.

When Klaus was found, the guy was staring blankly at his "exclusive weapon" [Newton], frowning. It was then noticed that the oversized wrench had undergone some changes in appearance—

The originally ordinary hexagonal wrench and hammer head have been given a lot of strange "decorations".

"...What did you do to your weapon...?"

"I can hardly believe it," Ren Yi asked, sounding utterly astonished.

"optimization!"

When someone asked about his new toy, Klaus's brow instantly relaxed.

He cleared his throat and eagerly handed his masterpiece forward so that Renyi could see it clearly.

The originally cold and simple industrial style lines have been enhanced with more precision gears, and intricate grooves extend along the hammer body. The handle is undecorated, with only a few knobs of unknown function.

"I call it Type 28."
