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

Yunhai City, Supernatural Research Institute.

The first solution that came to everyone’s mind was the renowned Morse code!

By using the short signal "・" and maintaining a long signal "—" for a certain duration, they could complete the transmission of information.

However, just after they sent the first command, the screen turned blue.

[The other party has disconnected the communication. Would you like to re-initiate the communication request?]

And in the conference room, there was a stir of commotion.

"He… he turned off the communication video?!"

"Re-establish the connection!"

[Please wait… Communication with the Meida Civilization is being initiated…]

But after trying to connect for quite some time, the screen still did not light up; it seemed the other party’s communicator really wasn’t functioning well.

Professor Zhang Hui, the main person in charge of the research institute, forcefully slapped his forehead, feeling that their good intentions had backfired.

They had originally intended to use vibrations and alarms to let Lu Yuan know: You have reached human beings! You are not fighting alone!

But on second thought, on the one hand, it was highly likely that the other party did not understand Morse code, so sending it would have been in vain; on the other hand, the passage of time was different for both sides, with one second in the Safe Zone being equivalent to a hundred seconds for Lu Yuan.

And the frequency at which vibration signals could be sent was limited, with an interval of about one or two seconds per attempt.

Therefore, they had essentially sent only one vibration over a long period of time; wouldn’t it be strange if the other side didn’t find it baffling and turn off the device?

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Professor Zhang Hui swallowed and took a deep breath, "The good news is, the alarm vibration channel on that device on the other end is intact. It can receive our signals and initiate vibrations..."

"The bad news is that the alarm channel can transmit too little information, which led to Lu Yuan misunderstanding our intentions."

"Can we continue to send alarms?"

"No, we need the other party to re-initiate contact before we can do that... This thing is like the window shaking feature in QQ; if the other side shuts down, we can’t shake it."

Zhang Hui swiftly reached out to some information experts from universities, asking them to consider how to transmit more information through the alarm vibration channel.

"Professor Zhang, aren’t you asking the impossible? Alarm devices can only emit a beeping sound; it’s determined by their physical structure..." The person answering the phone was the famous information science expert, Professor Shang Xingwen, who was a bit perplexed.

Zhang Hui said over the phone, "Our demands are not high. We at least need to let him know that he has successfully connected with humanity on this side! And moreover, to not turn off his machine!"

"A signal simpler than Morse code? That’s going to be tough."

"Well, let me discuss it with my colleagues for a while and think of a solution."

Soon enough, several experts were seated in the discussion room, eagerly engaging in conversation.

Within the metal sphere, a buzzer-like alarm capable of emitting two wave shapes, "square wave" and "triangle wave," these were typically used to produce alarm sounds.

But by combining these two simple wave shapes, could they produce more complex syllables? The experts started experimenting near the large sphere.

"We need to be faster! In a few hours, he might be… gone."

Just then, people heard the voice of "God" again.

[The attribute system for items has been generated. Extraordinary items will be classified into eight levels: Inferior, Ordinary, Rare, Superior, Legendary, Epic, Immortal, and Mythical.]

[After acquiring relevant identification skills, one will be able to identify the levels and effects of extraordinary items.]

…

Pangu Continent.

Mountain winds rustled the clouds and mist, while sunlight bathed the earth, with the distant sound of a babbling waterfall faintly audible.

Lu Yuan sat on a large rock, diligently cultivating.

The roll of tumbleweed, the cries of insects, the howls of wild beasts, and the friction between sand and stones—these sounds were like ripples on water, vaguely reaching Lu Yuan’s ears.

This was a simple method, one for cultivating the Extraordinary Spark.

Suddenly, he heard a voice from "God", "The Attribute System for items has been fully generated. Extraordinary Items will be classified into eight levels: Inferior, Ordinary, Fine, Superior, Legendary, Epic, Immortal, and Myth."

The tranquil Primitive Forest showed little reaction, and the wolves nearby remained quiet as well.

"God" had activated the Equipment System, but for the native animals of Pangu Continent, nothing had changed, they continued to live freely.

"Could it be that only beings with wisdom can hear this voice?"

"The frequency of ’God’s’ updates seems to be getting lower. Perhaps the true completion of Pangu Continent isn’t far off."

For Lu Yuan, "God" had only "updated" the Equipment System once in over three months.

But for the lives within the Safe Zone, "God" seemed to be "updating" almost every day.

In Lu Yuan’s hands, there were a total of three Extraordinary Items.

After identifying them for a while, indeed more information emerged.

"The pattern on the back of a juvenile Hell Demon Spider can cause a spiritual shock to its enemies. (Superior Level·Natural Wonder)"

"Fire Red Crystal Stone... (Fine Level·Natural Wonder)"

"Fire Lizard Leather... (Ordinary Level·Natural Wonder)"

As for the Fuel Stone that he had dug out from the Fire Lizard’s gland, it surprisingly didn’t count as an Extraordinary Item, not even reaching the lowest Inferior Grade.

"It looks like the standards are not low."

"What a pity, if this Hell Demon Spider were to grow, this piece of its back pattern might even reach the Legendary level or higher…"

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan felt that "manually crafting an Extraordinary Item" might very likely be a new Milestone set by "God".

He suddenly felt full of drive!

The conditions for accomplishing this Milestone didn’t seem difficult, with methods such as sewing, forging, woodworking, and carving all potentially able to achieve it.

In fact, because it seemed too simple, it might be snatched away by other civilizations!

Perhaps a civilization hiding in the Safe Zone was just about to craft some Extraordinary Item?!

Or maybe they were nearly finished crafting it!

Take note, Earth had already entered the Supernatural era ten years ago, and Supernatural users had appeared since then.

Mutated animals and plants also existed on Earth, and even though they were extremely rare, considering the entire planet, it wouldn’t be strange for a few treasures to appear.

If this was the case for Earth, it could be the same for other civilizations.

Right now, Lu Yuan’s advantages were only a 100-fold time boost, the several ready-made Extraordinary Items he possessed, plus the informational edge—he knew for certain that completing the Milestone would yield great rewards, while other civilizations might not be aware of this.

Feeling a sense of urgency, he thought, "Just right, the lizard skin has been soaking for several days, time to start tanning the lizard skin."

He walked over and switched on the large iron sphere again, the indicator lights resumed blinking, and the electronic display lit up.

Fortunately, this time there was no vibration or warning.

Actually, Lu Yuan also had his doubts whether the previous vibrations and alarms were signalling something special?

But slapping his forehead, he figured he was being paranoid. Could he really take a straw floating on water for a lifesaver? Could humans really send messages over here?

"Even if I’m being paranoid, so what? There’s no one else around, so why not consider it a form of social relaxation?"

"Awoo!" The pack of wolves began to howl in accompaniment.

"Quick, contact human civilization!"

Still not giving up, Lu Yuan shouted in front of the screen, "Humans, whether you can see this or not, I will only demonstrate once, the legendary Milestone!"
