Chapter 685 Civilization Games and the Tip of the Iceberg of the Imperial Clan
Time flies, and the soul of the town once again walks out of the golden pagoda.
With a calm expression and no signs of anger or anger, it got on its own carriage and returned to the mansion.
On the road.
"Master, the golden pagoda's pagoda spirit has been replaced again!" the town soul said solemnly.
Lando nodded slightly, looked solemn, and said: "This should be the third time this year!"
He knew that 'Diga's' sudden change in behavior would attract the attention of some people, but he did not expect that he or they would be so blatant.
You know, because of the high status of the Kshatriyas, any of their itineraries are naturally high-level secrets of the imperial clan.
If someone attempts to investigate, even if he is also a Kshatriya, he will be severely punished as long as he is caught!
Therefore, during this year, the pagoda spirit of the Golden Pagoda was changed so frequently, and I am afraid that it was silenced!
There are not many people in the whole city who can do things so unscrupulously, and the only one who would target the soul of the town like this is the brother of Di Jia!
Fortunately, during this period of time, Lando not only looked up the information he needed and was interested in, but also looked up a lot of other information.
When these data are broken down, they can all be classified into several systems. It is enough to confuse others and confuse others.
Anyway, for Lando, any knowledge is valuable, and it is not considered useless work.
However, it is not a problem to always accept the move passively!
Perhaps, it’s time to make some other considerations!
As time went on, the news about the ‘Ancestral God Ceremony’ was completely confirmed.
The messenger from the holy city conveyed the Brahman's order...
Three hundred years later, at the Ancestral God Festival, the outstanding Kshatriyas will be eligible to participate!
It was this order that detonated the entire Imperial Clan!
Vaishyas and Sudras are more discussing the 'ancestral god ceremony' itself, while Kshatriyas are more concerned about how to obtain the qualifications of 'participants'!
What exactly is... an excellent Kshatriya?!
Soon, the selection criteria will be released.
There were only nine ‘participants’!
This is almost certain. After all, the fundamental purpose of the ‘Ancestral God Ceremony’, in addition to worshiping the ancestor gods of the imperial clan, is to enhance the bloodline of outstanding Kshatriyas, so as to increase their probability of reaching the ‘immortal’ state!
To achieve this, in addition to the power left by the ancestor gods, we also need the special energy accumulated in the golden light dimension world as assistance.
Therefore, the time of the ‘Ancestral God Ceremony’ is often uncertain, but there is a high probability that it will be held only after the Brahmins have accumulated enough energy to refine the bloodline of the nine Kshatriyas.
Therefore, if you want to become a 'participant', there are two additional restrictions. First, you must be a pure-blood Kshatriya to be eligible; second, a Kshatriya who has already been a 'participant' once cannot participate again.
.
Next are the specific rules...
The Brahmins would divide a primitive river system in which only low-level civilization existed.
The Kshatriyas participating in the competition need to enter this primitive river system, select one of the civilizations, and then help them develop and grow, but they cannot directly participate in their wars.
When the Kshatriyas enter the primitive river system, they will cut off all contact with the outside world and cannot receive any form of help from the outside world.
There are also limits on the resources that the Kshatriyas can carry when they enter the primitive river system.
Of course, in addition, there are many strict rules.
After three hundred years, whoever supports a civilization that develops better will get a higher score!
The top nine Kshatriyas will be qualified to participate in the ‘Ancestral God Ceremony’.
This is... a civilization game!
After getting the rules, Lando and the town soul studied together for a long time.
The town soul complained: "This imperial clan is really good at playing! They actually directly divided a river system as a battlefield just for an assessment!"
After thinking for a while, Lando said: "This is inevitable. After all, all candidates are pure-blooded Kshatriyas, and there must always be relative fairness!"
"You know, among the current pure-blooded Kshatriyas, there are also old antiques who have lived for many epochs. Their strength and accumulation of resources far exceed those of the Kshatriyas born in the current era.
!”
"If it is a pure competition of strength, then there is no need to conduct the so-called assessment. Just rank them from top to bottom according to who has lived longer. Although they may not be all right, I think they are almost the same!"
The town soul suddenly realized: "So that's why those Brahmins created such a restrictive assessment?!"
Lando nodded slightly and said: "These rules are to restrict those veteran Kshatriyas. After all, they have not been able to reach the 'immortal' state for so long, which has proven their talent."
"Of course, even if there are various restrictions, the advantages of the old Kshatriyas are still obvious! But it is precisely because of this that if the new Kshatriyas can stand out in this situation, whether it is luck or strength, they will be enough to prove themselves
Got it!"
"Civilization Game!"
Lando muttered to himself, then sneered: "This imperial clan really regards itself as a transcendent existence!"
This is not something Lando said casually!
On the surface, it seems that it is a win-win move for the Kshatriyas of the imperial clan to enter this primitive river system and help the civilization in it develop!
But don’t forget, this is an important test for the Kshatriyas!
Then, it is very reasonable to use certain means to attack the opponent during the assessment process!
Among them, it naturally includes directly destroying the civilization chosen by a certain Kshatriya, so that his score will be cleared to zero!
In this case, the Kshatriyas who have chosen civilization will have only two options left...
The first is to admit failure and get out of the assessment obediently!
The second is to continue to choose another civilization and start over!
In fact, these two options may not make any difference to Kshatriyas who have already failed once!
Even if you choose the second option, you cannot make up for the time lost before.
Moreover, there are also differences among civilized races!
Some civilized races are inherently powerful and have high cultivation value, while some civilized races are inherently weak and difficult to support on the wall!
There is no doubt that those valuable civilized races must be selected by the Kshatriyas for training at the first time.
The ones who can be picked out are naturally those who are inherently weaker!
In this case, unless something special happens, it is definitely hopeless to catch up!
But no matter what, what the Imperial Clan brought to the primitive river system may have development and opportunities, but more definitely it will be continuous war and gunpowder smoke!
Once the opening of the 'Ancestral God Ceremony' and the assessment rules for 'participants' are determined, the first thing to do is naturally to call back the pure-blooded Kshatriyas scattered throughout the dimensional universe!
At the same time, the original river system also needs a certain amount of time to prepare.
In this case, Lando temporarily suppressed some small thoughts.
Time passes day by day.
It took five years to summon the pure-blooded Kshatriyas to return.
During this period, the town soul simply stopped hiding and went to the golden tower almost whenever he had time. This allowed Lando to gain a lot of knowledge!
In fact, it’s not too out of the ordinary to do this. After all, isn’t it normal to cram before an ‘exam’?!
Maybe it’s because Diyuan has also started to make preparations, maybe it’s because he feels that he can’t find any clues from the town soul’s reading list, maybe it’s because the number of Kshatriyas entering and exiting the pagoda has increased during these days, and it’s not easy to manipulate...
…
In short, the pagoda spirit in the golden pagoda has not suffered any more!
…………
Primitive star field, civilization game!
When the small town soul stepped into the primitive star field, it could be said that it was all alone, with almost nothing brought except the moon and stars!
Lando, Xiao Liuli, Xiao Miwu, and Xiao Nine-Headed Dragon Turtle are naturally among Yuexing, but including them, as well as the town soul and the Moon people, they can intervene and guide the chosen civilization, but they cannot participate in related matters.
in a direct war.
This is of course also one of the rules of assessment.
With this rule in mind, the choice of civilized race is very particular!
After all, there are only three hundred years. In this time, it may not be difficult to cultivate the state of 'immortality' from scratch, but if you want to cultivate the state of 'not bad', the time is very tight, and basically it is not difficult.
Very possible!
There is no need to even think about the realm of ‘immortality’, it is simply a dream!
Thinking about how high-level civilizations on the scale of the Human Alliance and the Sabi Empire have yet to have their own 'immortality' realm, you can understand how difficult it is!
And if we ignore the training of strong people and just develop science and technology, it won’t work!
The upper limit of real-world technology is there. If you can't combine the extraordinary energy of the dimensional world, you are destined to not go far!
The town soul woke up Lando and asked: "Master, what should we do next?"
Lando said: "Tell me first the specific circumstances of this assessment."
When Town Soul and other pure-blooded Kshatriyas came to the primitive river system, as a precaution, Lando entered the state of "integrating the body with heaven and earth", combined with the moon and stars, and completely sealed off all his own perceptions.
This can avoid being discovered to the greatest extent.
Therefore, there is still a lack of understanding of the current overall situation.
The town soul nodded and said: "The rules of the 'Civilized Game' have not changed. There are a total of 78 Kshatriyas participating in the assessment this time..."
"What?! 78 people?!"
Lando looked shocked. He never expected that the number of pure-blooded Kshatriyas could reach such a level!
There were indeed many Kshatriyas in the city where he lived before, but when it came to pure-blood Kshatriyas, it seemed that there were only two people, Diga and Diyuan!
The reason why Lando was so shocked was because the pure-blooded Kshatriyas represented more than just themselves!
You should know that according to the Brahmin custom, one or two Kshatriyas will be born to represent the continuation of their own lineage.
And the time for them to reproduce is often after the death of the pure-blooded Kshatriya descendants of the previous generation!
In other words, in the same era, a pair of Brahmin parents only had one or two pure-blood Kshatriya children!
This also means that the real number of pure-blooded Kshatriyas is even less than that of Brahmins!
There are currently 78 pure-blood Kshatriyas participating in the ‘Civilization Game’, but some of them were actually participants in the ‘Ancestral God Ceremony’, so they did not come!
If calculated in this way, the total number of pure-blood Kshatriyas should be more than one hundred, so wouldn't it be possible for Brahmins to be close to two hundred?!
These are close to two hundred ‘immortal’ realm experts!
The Titans dominated the stars in their era, and they were relatively strong among overlord-level civilizations!
But they only have two ‘Immortal’ realm creatures and three creatures with ‘Immortal’ realm combat power!
From this comparison, we can see how terrifying the accumulation of the Imperial Clan has been!
Seeing the tip of the iceberg of the Imperial Clan's true strength made Lando even more cautious.
Suppressing these chaotic thoughts, Lando said: "Continue talking."
The town soul continued: "In order to save time, each of our participants also distributed a star map, which marked the locations of all life stars in the original river system."
Lando asked: "Is it just the Life Star?"
The town soul nodded.
The so-called life star is a planet with conditions for the birth of life.
But whether life has been born on these planets and whether these lives are worth cultivating requires participants to understand on their own.
The town soul continued: "Last point, we participants were randomly dropped into the primitive river system."
"Right away?" Lando nodded slightly and said, "In this case, at least we don't have to think about meeting each other in the early stage."
After thinking for a while, Lando said: "Let's go, let's go to the nearest life star first and select a race suitable for cultivation!"
The soul of the town should be, then walk under the moonlight and stroll among the stars.
Soon, they arrived at the nearest living star.
Through the sight of the town soul, Lando briefly observed the life star and shook his head slightly.
Its size is too small, and most of its territory is ocean, with less than 10% of its land area!
For a civilization, a small planet means that the overall resources are small. Unless such a civilization is particularly outstanding, it will be extremely difficult to break through the limitations of its parent star and enter the universe!
In fact, the ancestral planet where humans were born is already considered the lowest limit.
No matter how small it is, the difficulty of development will increase exponentially!
Despite thinking this way, Lando did not leave directly.
This situation is like a lottery. Even if the analysis is perfect, it is not as satisfying as seeing it in person.
At his instruction, the town soul entered the life star.
This life star is quite primitive, and no race that can be called intelligent life has been born.
Because water occupies the vast majority, there are many types of marine life!
There are a large number of green algae in the ocean, which can continuously produce a large amount of oxygen. This oxygen-rich environment makes life generally larger in size.
No miracle happened. Even Lando, who had the talent of 'lucky man', did not find a satisfactory race directly!
After a moment's delay, the town soul left the life star and headed towards the next life star indicated on the star chart.
