As the old capital of the empire, Crystal City was larger than both Yao City and Salt City. Only at this moment, the city had turned into a huge ruin.
It was littered with sand and shards of glass, which were interspersed with the remains of every Imperial, just like their style and past, sharp and sharp, but also fragile.
After docking the earthbound boat, Uluru made his way to the Ghost Tower.
It was just as striking as the rumours had suggested, with an emerald green vertical pupil atop the tall tower, watching over the entire city.
He found Lady Yakutake inside the tower.
The teacher had sent Uluru to this lady, saying she could be of assistance.
“It’s good that Fabiani is still alive.”
Lady Yakutake wore spectral armour and spoke and acted very sharply. Thanks to her [Knowing Mind] ability, she could easily read Uluru’s sign language and transmit her words to him.
“By the way, has Fabiani been looking for a woman outside?”
Uluru shook his head.
Ms Pill Put nodded, “That’s good …… Didn’t he tell you that I’m his wife?”
Uluru froze.
The Wuzhi didn’t have a distinction between male and female, but most Yao clans did.
Uluru could realise that conceiving offspring between a man and a woman would give these two types of individuals a very complex and subtle relationship that was difficult for the Wuzhi to understand.
“This guy, it looks like the wedding will be delayed for a long time.”
Yakutobi sighed as she began to lead Uluru to familiarise herself with the tower.
“There are now 73,219 official residents in Crystal City’s Ghost High Tower, all of whom were once people of the Empire who died after their bodies crystallised after the God War.”
“Interestingly, the past ministers and generals of the empire have all gone into hiding one by one, not daring to show their faces.”
Medicine Put’s laughter was tinged with jerks and nuisance murmurs.
She tapped her helmet with a clunking echo.
“This Ghost Armour is badly worn, I’ll have to find some time to get it repaired by a Dwarf. The sound is often off, and sometimes there’s a delay in hand and foot movements ……”
Uluru notices that a man is also in the high tower.
He was dressed in a linen robed jacket, carrying a travelling bag, and had sheepskin or cowhide boots on his feet. A very normal Yao townsman’s dress.
The man spotted him and nodded towards Uluru.
“Let me introduce you.”
Medicine Putu volunteered, “This is Uluru, an archaeologist, here to survey the history of the old capital of the Empire.”
“This is Mr Botu, commander of the Salt City City Guard. Because of a phantom serial murder case, Mr Botu came here to investigate.”
Botu and Uluru took the initiative to greet each other.
Uluru gestured sign language – Excuse me, is that the criminal who roamed around and killed seventeen ghosts consecutively in Yao City and Salt City?
Botu actually understood without a translator and said, “Yes. Do you have a clue? I know sign language, so please elaborate.”
Uluru inquired with a sign – I had heard that the murdered ghosts were all former old Imperial citizens.
Botu states, “Good. The slain ghosts were all Imperial officials in life, so if you have any clues, we would be grateful.”
Uluru shakes his head.
Botu says softly, “We have reason to suspect that it may have been an Uzi apparition. Witnesses claim that the murderer wore spectral armour and would have left some strange stone carvings in the area of the crime.”
The ghosts that were attacked were all Imperial powerhouses, suggesting that the perpetrator had a deep hatred for the Empire.
Uluru gestures – the war is over, and I don’t think that the Uzis would do that. Molten Uzis can be very combative, but that would have to be deep underground.
Botu was thoughtful.
Yakuto suddenly heard something, and she said to the two, “There’s a group of ghosts fighting over a flowerpot, I’ve got to go check it out, you guys talk first.”
After saying that, she clunked her way up the stairs.
The two left behind were silent for a moment.
Botu let out a laugh, “It’s marvellous, I didn’t think that the Bo and the Uzi, would come face to face in such a way.”
Uluru said in his heart.
Botu really is an old Imperial citizen.
No wonder he could read his own sign language, most likely he was still a soldier on the frontline.
What Ululu was more curious about was how Botu had survived the Bose God’s exterminating divine power. The Bo people of the empire were all made into glass sculptures by this powerful old god.
The other party suddenly said, “You are an archaeologist, do you want me to teach you the Imperial language and script?”
Uluru was a little disbelieving.
He immediately gestured – really?
“Of course. But please also teach me the writing, customs and living conditions of the Uzi people.”
Botu tightens his smile, “If the murderer is an Uzi, I can pin him down faster, and if not, then I can rule out suspicion sooner.”
Uluru nodded.
Just then, Uluru suddenly felt a wave of dizziness. Then his entire body was suddenly infused with a powerful and warm power, and his body, which was shrouded in black robes, was slightly glowing.
Opposite him, Botou revealed a smile, “Congratulations, this is a gift from the gods. It seems that you have done something remarkable, quickly give thanks to the god-sama.”
Uluru panicked and sat on his knees, reverently chanting in his heart.
–Great Lord Yao God, thank you for your gift to Ururu ……
……
A few moments ago, Lu Yao noticed a series of reminders appearing on the screen.
Another villain with heroic qualifications appeared.
This time, it was a Uzi called Uluru.
He transformed it.
On the personal stand-up, it was a metal man at the edge of the lava, the black mud on his body disappearing without a trace at this moment, revealing the true silver body of the Uzi man.
A pike-shaped earthbound boat crashed into the lava, and Uluru grabbed the cliff with one hand so that he didn’t fall into the same hot fire as the earthbound boat.
There is a text under the elevation drawing.
–If you haven’t tipped over the earthbound boat, you’re not driving fast enough.
……

Elemental Elemental
Elemental life with a long lifespan, able to seek out and utilise the Elemental to replenish and strengthen itself.
Dual Form
The closer it is to solid, the more stable and inert it is, and the closer it is to liquid, the more aggressive and active it is.
……
In addition to this, Uluru also has the abilities of [Archaeology] and [Geology].
……
[Geology].
Excels at figuring out the material composition of the world, its internal structure, external features, the interaction and evolution between the various layers of the circle, and has a certain chance of discovering various rare mineral deposits.
……
The appearance of Uluru brought about a series of changes.
[Uluru invented a new profession: geologist.]
[Uluru discovered coal.]
[The appearance of geologists gave the Yao Clan the ability to record and study the underground world, and underground structures and perspectives were officially opened.]
Lu Yao immediately noticed that the ground was now no longer invisible below the surface, but had a subterranean perspective.
Take Saniro for example.
Clicking on the cave entrance one could see that a passageway had appeared underground, in which the sandworms were carving out rocks, carrying dirt, swallowing underground ores into their stomachs, and then carrying them to the surface to supply the dwarves with smelting metals.
Just like the emergence of writing and history, the birth of geology made the visualisation of the entire world clearer and more detailed.
Lu Yao suddenly had a kind of clarity.
The simulator was an observer that used civilisation as a vehicle.
Initially, players could only see the population and beliefs of the shard world, and everything else was based on speculation.
For high-precision observation and operation, the civilisation itself had to be evolved to a higher degree.
Lu Yao was in a good mood.
The addition of the Wuzhis had an immediate effect.
This group of special beings living underground were not good at surface construction and reclamation, but the underground world was their old home, and each of them came with their own underground encyclopaedic knowledge and years of experience.
The Wuzhi would fill in the missing link in the underground world that the Yao tribe currently lacked.
The simulator prompts continued to pop up.
[Tiese created “Lying”]
[Because of Lying, the Yao discovered art.]
[Tie Sai became a legend.]
Legendary painter?
Lu Yao clicked on Lying.
……
Lying: -1 Defence, +2 Attack, a special painting drawn by Tiese that absorbs the pain of a lost love and grows slowly.
After witnessing the painting there is a high probability of obtaining a short period of [Confusion] or [Weakness] status, and a small probability of obtaining [Joy] status.
Tiese depicts the pain and uncertainty of a male lost lover with his paintbrush, with a piercing feeling that hits the heart.
……
Being able to create growth props, the legend that is Tiese is indeed well deserved.
Lu Yao said in his heart Good job.
By letting this painting continue to circulate, it can slowly grow, and the Golden Wilderness background can check the words at any time, so there is no fear that it will be lost.
Lu Yao continued to look down.
[Pava invented the feather pen and smoke ink.]
Because of the feather quill and smoke ink, the Yao tribe’s literacy rate has slightly increased.
Pawel invented a new profession: writer.
There is also an optional option to convert Pawar into a hero below.
Lu Yao also transformed him.
The stand-up was of a man in brass armour, his helmet hiding his face completely. However, this armoured warrior did not hold a sword to kill the enemy, but instead was writing furiously in front of a table with a quill in hand.
Under the personal stand-up it is written.
–Fight and die, it is death that destroys death.
An additional [Writer] has been added to Pava’s abilities.
……
[Writer]: has created incredible masterpieces, has a high reputation, and has a chance of a creative outburst.
……
The only strange thing was that Pava’s name became [Matthews].
Lu Yao checked his personal history.
……
At the age of 66, Pava deliberately committed suicide, and after his death, his ghost changed his name to Matthews and began to create The Crystal Empire.
……
He does understand serialisation.
Straight away, he used suicide to break off and change his waistcoat to open a new pit.
Lu Yao straight up called it an inside job.
The little people of the Yao Clan have all made a lot of achievements, pushing world civilisation forward in their respective fields.
It is time to do some work himself.
He clicked into the Golden Wilderness and looked into the Realm Dimension Space.
In the vast, dark and boundless space, a giant world body that was connected as one caught Lu Yao’s attention.
