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

Chapter 43 - 40: How to Activate Hidden Abilities?



It was his first time, and it was a bit poor.

Since childhood, Lu Yuan’s hands-on skills had never been great. For instance, washing dishes, he had a high probability of breaking a plate, winning the couple’s scolding.

As for carpentry or sewing, he had never done any of that.

"But making extraordinary items doesn’t seem to have much to do with craftsmanship as long as the quality is passable."

"What’s more important is to activate the innate supernatural effects."

This issue was crucial because without activation, you couldn’t achieve a milestone!

Lu Yuan turned around, searched through the database for information on Meida Civilization, and found a plethora of complex research topics that made his head spin.

Simply put, every natural supernatural item has its innate attributes.

Like the Fire Lizard’s skin, it possesses the ability of "high temperature resistance."

The fact that the Fire Lizard doesn’t burn itself when breathing fire is the best proof, and those flames reach temperatures of three thousand degrees Celsius!

While it was alive, its skin could constantly activate "high temperature resistance," ensuring it didn’t burn itself to death.

But as this massive creature died, its skin became an inanimate object, making it quite difficult to activate its ability again.

Therefore, this layer of skin’s supernatural effect is hidden.

In such a deactivated state, even with the ability of "high temperature resistance," if you threw it into a fire, it would still catch fire immediately.

You have to employ various methods to re-activate the innate "high temperature resistance" attribute.

"So that’s how it is..."

Because of this difficulty, experts and professors from the Meida Civilization had provided three methods.

The first is physical harmonization.

Using means like microcurrents to forcefully activate the innate abilities.

The Fire Lizard also had nerve tissues, and during its life, the transmission of electrical signals between neurons could activate superpowers.

Thus, using microcurrents or certain chemical signals could mimic the original neurons to some extent and adjust the leather’s supernatural abilities.

Of course, this method only works on biological materials.

For Lu Yuan, it was also too difficult; he simply couldn’t obtain any microcurrents.

What a cyberpunk method!

The second method is catalytic harmonization, using various materials with different attributes to interact and activate the innate abilities.

Like "high temperature resistance" and "low temperature resistance," if put together, might affect each other and activate each other.

This is a vast field, as complex as chemical reactions.

The Meida Civilization had explored for over three hundred years and had only just begun to understand it.

If Lu Yuan wanted to teach himself, the difficulty would be very high...

It would take at least several decades to learn, in the least.

The third is psychic harmonization.

Life is truly the ruler of the Pangu Continent.

Some talented artisans, with enough skill following the obscure telepathy, could create very powerful supernatural items.

Don’t ask them why it should be like this.

These guys couldn’t explain it either.

It’s purely a matter of talent!

After looking through this information, Lu Yuan glanced at the Fire Lizard double sleeping bag he had made and was simply petrified.

"Why are there so many intricacies!"

The most crucial thing was, even if the "high temperature resistance" of the lizard skin was activated, it wouldn’t be of much use...

All he wanted to do was make a sleeping bag.

But the evaluation system set by "God" didn’t care how you explained it: this sleeping bag must have high temperature resistance, or it’s not an extraordinary item!

"The strength of one person is really too small."

"Don’t worry, the higher difficulty means that other civilizations won’t find it easy to accomplish either."

Lu Yuan really wanted the milestone from God, and he was stumped, wracking his brains thinking.

Gradually, he focused his attention on another item.

[Pattern on the back of a juvenile Hell Demon Spider, can cause spiritual shock to enemies. (Superior Level・Natural wonders)]

This pattern looked like a pair of terrifying eyes filled with red veins, and staring at it would generate a deep sense of panic.

Its superpower is naturally activated!

No need for so much complexity!

"If I use this trophy to make a supernatural item, I should be able to make something decent... It is a Superior Level natural wonder, even downgrading it by two levels would still make it decent."

Lu Yuan’s breathing became heavy; this was a gamble.

There was only one Superior Level natural wonder.

Once he failed to complete the milestone, he wouldn’t be able to get better materials for a while.

So he remained somewhat cautious.

"The current level of craftsmanship is just too crude."

No matter how urgent, it wouldn’t help to rush it.

Accordingly, he first made an animal bed for Old Wolf as planned.

Old Wolf loved it, and so did the bunch of pups.

Then he started from a leather coat, to a leather jacket, and then to leather pants...

As time swiftly passed, a complete Fire Lizard suit slowly emerged under his hard work!

The difficulty of many things wasn’t as tough as imagined.

Lu Yuan had never done needlework before, but he pushed himself, and it seemed... possible?

Especially when you focus all your attention, seriously concentrating on it morning, noon, and night, you gradually become skilled.

Lu Yuan was so engrossed in his work, sky-rocketing his skills in crafting from morning to evening, completely forgetting that the metal sphere was still open…

He remembered the college entrance examination on Earth, a time when many vied for limited spots.

During high school, he actually hadn’t worked that hard.

Though he stayed up late and got up early, he was just pretending to be diligent and often slacked off secretly.

There were many students like that…

There’s a big difference between truly being diligent and just pretending.

So his scores were quite ordinary, and he attended an ordinary university, living an ordinary life.

Thinking about it, Lu Yuan felt a bit sad.

If only I could do it all over, I would definitely…

"What would I do..."

Brain and brother: Having been reborn and you’re still not dating?

Lu Yuan: ???

"Shouldn’t I study hard and try to get into Qinghua or Beijing University?"

Brain and brother: Study what crap, dummy! Having been reborn, just mine Bitcoin, Ethereum, date a bit, migrate to Thailand to marry 4 wives, migrate to Nigeria to marry 400 wives! Dude, I’m desperate right now, just want to date!

What the heck?

Lu Yuan’s hand twitched, almost driving the spider’s sharp leg into his flesh.

"You guys are mistaken, I’m from the Pure Love Party!"

It turned out that sewing was indeed not a very lucrative physical labor; even though his thoughts wandered, it did not hinder his craftsmanship.

Each line was neat and clean, Lu Yuan had already become a skilled weaver!
