Lin Yi summoned a dune motorcycle to travel with a local guide, who feared the machine and insisted on running ahead. Lin Yi followed, marveling at the man's speed. They eventually reached a vast, five-kilometer-wide lake of crude oil, an unexpected and immense discovery.

Lin Yi suddenly thought of a feasible idea: he needed to search for more open-air oil deposits here.

That’s right, find these open-air oil lakes. Only this way can he swiftly implement his plans, only this way can he better mobilize the people still living primitively to serve him.

Otherwise, relying on them to operate future oil drilling machinery is obviously very difficult and impractical.

Instead, it’s better to directly search for such mineral deposits on-site.

Besides, he needed these individuals to rely on the natives’ memory and their ability to find things to search for some shallow oil deposits that aren’t very obvious yet but have already shown some promise.

At that time, all he needed to do was go over and find a way to extract them, and with this thought, he acted immediately.

He spoke to the leader:

"Good, this place is indeed good. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Now, go back and tell everyone to search for such places.

Besides places like this, try to find as many as possible. Whenever one is found, I will give you a good reward.

For instance, now that you’ve found this place, I will provide you with plenty of food."

While saying this, he waved his hand, and suddenly a large piece of cooked beef appeared in his hand. He then handed it to the man in front of him, who drooled at the sight of the beef.

The porridge earlier hadn’t truly filled him up, so when he saw the beef, he immediately took a big bite without hesitation.

He had never tasted such meat before, but he knew it was meat. Although he didn’t know what kind of animal it came from, as long as it tasted good, they wouldn’t care. As long as there was food, it was enough.

Especially when that chunk of meat entered his mouth, the intense aroma made his eyes widen instantly. In all his life, it was the first time he had eaten such delicious meat.

As for why he didn’t save some for his wife and children but chose to eat it himself, he considered it thoroughly. After all, he was on a mission and would need great physical strength later, requiring him to eat well now to have the energy to find more food for his family.

This was what every man in their tribe had to do, and the reason why they would first eat part of the food once found.

It’s like ants in the animal kingdom; when facing difficulties, they cling together.

And this group isn’t protected on the outside by the young and strong but rather by the elderly, who shield the young and strong, ensuring they always gain vitality.

Of course, these thoughts are somewhat distant. After getting the meat from Lin Yi, he wolfed it down and quickly devoured the entire slab of beef, finally satisfied.

After eating, the man was obviously more energetic than before. Once Lin Yi gave him tasks, he immediately turned and ran off.

Soon he was running toward the tribe, wanting to spread the word and have every man in the tribe start searching for similar black water.

After he left, Lin Yi redirected his gaze from him to the vast expanse of the oil lake.

Then Lin Yi twisted the throttle of his motorcycle, speeding towards the lake.

Soon his entire figure was at the edge of the lake.

As for why he didn’t use the Iron Man Armor to hover over the lake, he had his reasons.

After all, the Iron Man Armor was powered by flame propulsion, and the high-temperature flames from its base could instantly ignite the lake if they got even slightly close.

If such a large-scale oil deposit were ignited, it wouldn’t just be a loss—it would cause immense pollution here. Without exaggeration, unless the whole area was burned clean, the oil couldn’t be extinguished because the present society’s firefighting equipment is nearly zero.

Even though Lin Yi possessed the System Space, which contained several fire extinguishers, for such a massive oil fire, it would hardly make a dent, and he dared not approach.

For safety and to prevent any mishaps, Lin Yi chose the safer option of riding the motorcycle over.

Moreover, when the motorcycle was several hundred meters from the lake, he stopped it.

Going any closer, he feared static electricity from the motorcycle could ignite the place.
