Chapter 70: Chapter 67 Today is a Day of Great Miracle!
```
Time ticked away, second by second.
Expectations began to wane; there's always an indescribable anticipation before things settle.
A full fifteen minutes had passed when suddenly, the big metal ball chimed again with a "ding" sound.
Lu Yuan stood still, listening incredulously to the sound, crisp and ushering in fresh hope.
It really is the sound of eating Gold Coins!
Humans are really contacting me!
On the human side, my signal must have been received! It's just that my screen here is broken.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Lu Yuan's face flushed red, feeling like his heart would leap out of his throat as flames seemed to blaze through his veins.
His innermost being was brimming with ecstasy, "Oh, God, today is a day of great miracles...God, I am your devout follower today!"
"Woof! Woof!" The loyal dog, seeing its master excited, howled wildly on the side.
"Another sound, Mario's jumping sound... give me another one."
Lu Yuan kept affirming this fact, and then bit his tongue viciously... Damn, that hurts, it's not a dream!
His emotions at this moment were like the tide, caught between the ebb and flow, fearing this was all false joy.
"Stop, stop, stop, don't act like a madman, have some dignity!"
After all, Lu Yuan possessed a Level 2 Extraordinary Spark, which, during the wait, quelled his turbulent thoughts and gradually calmed him down.
He instinctively began to reflect on whether he had presented an unfavorable image in front of the camera, whether he had made any indecent gestures?
"After finding the big metal ball, for several months, I was just making leather clothes, leather pants... should be no problem there."
The following few months were just a vast winter, the problem... maybe not big?
"It was just me cooking in front of the camera, showing off my ingredients a bit."
"Other than that, the metal ball was just sitting in the garbage room, not capturing much."
As for his bathroom, it was located far away, he definitely didn't make any improper actions in front of the camera...
"It's good that there were no embarrassments!" Lu Yuan nodded slightly, quite satisfied with his own performance.
As for the cheesy lines he once uttered... no big deal... I, Old Lu, am only 24, no, 25 years old, still a child.
And after making the shield, he did indeed communicate the "Milestone of Civilization," certainly qualifying him as a human hero, right?
After the metal ball made that sound, it was silent again.
Wanting to transmit Morse code was almost impossible, with the different rates of time passage, one second in the Safe Zone was 100 seconds on Lu Yuan's side.
This meant Lu Yuan had to wait a long time for each response, making communication inconvenient.
Meanwhile, what were the humans in the Safe Zone doing?
Perhaps they were engaged in gun battles? Zero-cost shopping? Or achieving a Milestone of Civilization?
But whatever they were doing, it was bustling... at least they had compatriots.
But Lu Yuan was alone on his side.
What he could hear, what he could receive, was only the sound of Mario eating Gold Coins with a "ding".
On the human side, it was difficult to transmit any more complex sounds.
But this single sound brought him a heartfelt sense of satisfaction!
Like a dream, not quite real...
Yet it was genuinely happening.
Lu Yuan suddenly felt a bit sorrowful and somewhat aggrieved.
He turned his head and pinched the flesh on the back of his hand fiercely, fighting back the tears in his eyes.
He didn't want others to see him in a state of dejection.
He should be, and must be strong...
He is, after all, the 18th branch of human civilization!
```
Who knows, maybe he's the strongest among humans!
The Extraordinary Fire in his mind gave a slight twitch and directly suppressed that part of complex emotions.
This is also a little trick in using the Extraordinary Fire; it can suppress emotions effectively and keep oneself calm in various environments.
He thought for a moment, then slowly spoke to the metal ball, "Cough cough, I don't know who exactly has made contact with me, but it must be someone from the upper echelons of human civilization."
"If you can contact my parents, please send them a message that I'm safe... Just tell them I'm alive, that's plenty."
"My current life is not too bad, and since time flows differently here, consider it as if I've gone on a long trip."
"If you can't get in touch, then... never mind."
After a long wait, the metal ball issued a "dingling" sound once more, perhaps indicating agreement.
Lu Yuan took several deep breaths, with a thousand words pressing on his heart, but didn't know where to start.
He remained silent, his mind a bit cluttered.
"The Safe Zone shouldn't have been canceled yet, right? Only a few days have passed, haven't they?"
"My parents are doctors, they can survive anywhere... and my sister is still in school, she doesn't need me to worry about her..."
"As for my grandparents, they aren't in Yunhai City... Sigh, there's no need for me to worry too much."
"I hope the government can look after them a bit, considering I've provided some information."
This feeling of one-sided communication, how should I put it...
It's like posting on social media when in fact you don't have a single friend, with only the mythical "cyber police" able to see your post...
Well, the cyber police are humans too!
That counts as some sort of communication, I guess.
Lu Yuan had no idea who was listening to him, were they scientists? Government officials? Or some soldier?
What did they look like, and what were their thoughts?
But they were really his only means of communication... At least the "ding" sound was like giving a like to a social media post, right?
Yeah, a like-based acquaintance wasn't too bad.
In the end, Lu Yuan decided to move the large sphere from the storage room to a relatively larger room.
He quickly shaved his beard, cut off the messy clump of hair, and changed into the set of clothes he wore when he first arrived at the Pangu Continent—clothes do make the man, as they say!
He took a small stool and sat in front of the camera.
"Cough cough, you've probably observed a lot and might have many questions to ask."
"Let me think, what important information do I have that I can share with you."
He paused for a moment, then said in one breath, "The first piece of information is about 'God' or the great existence that created the Pangu Continent, I really don't know what it wants to do."
"All I know is that I'm on the ruins of a civilization... This civilization is called the Meida Civilization."
"The Meida Civilization did leave behind a lot of papers speculating about this."
"This civilization has been in the Safe Zone for over three hundred years, observing the surrounding area for at least thirty thousand years."
"They discovered a lot, a lot of bizarre supernatural phenomena."
"If I must describe it, they believe that the worldview of the Pangu Continent might lean towards a Chinese-style Cthulhu... very terrifying, with incomprehensible monsters lurking."
"Yes, I'm not mistaken, very terrifying. If you don't encounter them, fine, but if you do, there's a chance of total annihilation."
At this point, Lu Yuan himself was a bit nervous.
Don't think that his life these past few months, living comfortably, hunting bears, petting dogs, gathering honey, eating corn, has been all there is.
But it's important to note that this is just the early stage of the Ninth Epoch.
Calm is the norm.
And the site of the Meida Civilization where he lives is just an inconspicuous corner...
Moreover, he encountered a "demon" that had just awakened!
How to deal with this thing is still an unknown.
