Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

Chapter 276: Chapter 263: Other “Hidden Civilizations”?

Last time, those three top-ranking rewards in the trial were major components that constituted the foundation of Human Civilization.

Without those nine Golden Legendary aspects of civilization, Human Civilization wouldn’t have been able to develop to such an extent in just five and a half years.

This time in the trial, there’s still a ranking, and there’s also a Ranking Reward Hack.

Shen Hao was hell-bent on being first!

The performance value of the force currently ranked second was growing at a speed that directly threatened the ranking of Human Civilization.

But Shen Hao wasn’t willing to give up first place, not even temporarily.

After all, they had no idea when the ranking settlement checkpoint would be.

“We need more points,” Shen Hao conveyed such a message to the members of the Global United Front.

Soon, the plan to accumulate points was laid out before Shen Hao. @@novelbin@@

The answer was one—Life Empire!

Indeed, if there was a place in the universe that was hardest hit by the calamity of the apocalypse, it was the Life Empire.

It was the origin of the apocalypse and also the area that suffered the most from the impact of ancient gods. Countless planets had turned into purgatory, and even those who still lived were mired in madness.

In some ways, the Life Empire of yesterday had become today’s purgatory.

Even a formidable force like the Company Alliance didn’t dare to venture deep into it now.

But for Trial Civilizations, it was also a paradise of points.

Full of rich wealth!

Most Trial Civilizations might find spiritual energy troublesome to deal with, but for someone like Shen Hao who possessed the “Refining Spirit Pot” and a high status that was immune to pollution, spiritual wealth could still be transformed into nourishment for the rapid growth of Human Civilization.

The final scheme handed to Shen Hao was exceedingly simple.

“Inquire with the Company Alliance and then assemble the Expeditionary Army,” Shen Hao looked at the content of the plan and was quite satisfied.

Indeed, there was no need for complexity.

This was the advantage of having established a specific identity.

The current identity of Human Civilization was as a civilization that had survived the previous era—all for the ultimate goal of combating the apocalypse. In this case, wasn’t it all too normal to head to the Life Empire, which was both the most dangerous and the closest to the apocalypse, and carry out exploration and research?

The outcome was just as Shen Hao had expected.

When Human Civilization proposed to the Company Alliance that they intended to investigate the Life Empire, the Company Alliance didn’t feel the slightest bit surprised.

Even when the news reached the oncoming Director Heather, the Level 9 Company called Bolis gritted its teeth and offered tremendous support!

“Warships, weapons, soldiers, spiritual ability users, intelligence, logistical resources!” Roddy’s conveyed voice was imbued with an undeniable determination, “Whatever we have, we can provide. The price will be calculated at the lowest rate; we can even offer an interest-free loan batch!”

The Company Alliance was not without attempts to explore the Life Empire, but they still suffered grievous losses despite their might.

Under such circumstances, the Level 9 Company known as “Bolis” was willing to offer such terms.

They were implicitly harboring intentions to cling to Human Civilization.

Only it wasn’t explicit—otherwise, instead of a loan, they would have offered it for free.

Clearly, they recognized the foundation of Human Civilization but doubted its strength.

Could Human Civilization, which had isolated itself from the universe for 18,000 years and only recently re-initiated, exhibit much strength? How far could it go relying on the foundation that countered the universe’s apocalypse?

In the face of such doubts, no proof was better than actual performance!

“The army of one billion is ready!” Dong Gong, standing atop Lingxiao Palace, reported to Shen Hao with an undertone of solemn resolve.

In the five and a half years that had passed, the entire civilization system with Human Civilization at its core had been preparing for the new trial’s war.

This included not just the troops, but everyone.

Equipment, weapons, logistics…

The entire civilization system had been fully developing its war potential for five years and was now pulling out all the stops!

Everyone was ready!

“Have you selected a target?” Shen Hao asked.

Indeed, the target was also chosen by the Analysis Department.

It required combining intelligence provided by the Company Alliance with the current strength of Human Civilization to make a comprehensive selection.

It wasn’t something Shen Hao could accomplish alone.

“It has been selected.”

Dong Gong was there that day to report on all related matters.

He raised his hand and launched the projection.

Several peculiar planets appeared before them.

They were described as peculiar because they were made up of three huge planets, each in close proximity to the other, forming a triangular stance, while a blue sun sat right in the middle of the three planets!

The size of the sun was only about one-tenth that of the three planets.

Such a strange configuration was rare even in the Extraordinary Universe.

Indeed, it wasn’t naturally formed but rather a unique type of spiritual planet created by the Life Empire about thirteen hundred years ago at great cost.

Shen Hao closely examined the data.

It was well known that although this was an Extraordinary Universe, extraordinary power wasn’t directly accessible to everyone.

Spiritual energy, located in dimensional spaces, needed special methods and innate Talents to be harnessed.
