Although they had been prepared from the clues revealed in the words of 'God', the sudden war still caused some chaos in the Saiyan Empire, which had always been smooth sailing!
One hundred and seventy years in the imperial calendar.
The 200th Year of the ‘Civilization Game’.
The expanding Saiyan Empire finally met a decent opponent for the first time!
This is also a civilization that was selected by the Imperial Clan, left its home star system, and began to explore and plunder the outside world. Although its technological level is obviously partial to science, its military strength cannot be underestimated, and the territory it occupies is larger than the current Saiyan Empire.
Bigger!
When civilization reaches this level, the focus of competition will fall on basic military strength...
Including the strategic and tactical thinking of general-level officers, the comprehensive awareness of soldiers, the level of standard individual weapons, etc.!
These two aspects basically account for 50% each!
After all, the civilizations in the original river system all started from a low level, so there was no one above the 'immortal' state, the kind of strong person who could change the situation of a battle by relying on his or her individual strength after being armed enough.
The two sides started with careful contact and then transitioned to a fierce confrontation. It took almost no time!
At a higher level, the town soul and the imperial clan that supports the other civilization also met each other. Because of the "unfamiliar" relationship, they did not have much communication, but they had the same tacit understanding and did not prevent the battle between the two civilizations.
At the beginning of the war, the Saiyan Empire was at a disadvantage.
The enemy civilization has more warships than the Saiyan Empire!
But as the war continues, the advantage of the Saiyan Empire gradually becomes apparent!
Stronger quality of soldiers, more number of strong men!
You know, after the awareness level of consciousness reaches 10%+, you can come into contact with dimensional energy and use dimensional energy mechas. This is definitely not as simple as a small improvement in individual strength!
Some geniuses can even use this to have the strength to destroy a battleship alone!
After rounds of war, Lando's 'plug-ins' for the Saiyans began to show results, and powerful warriors with a consciousness awakening level of 10%+ continued to emerge like mushrooms after a rain.
The Saiyan Empire even gathered them together and formed several special forces!
They are extremely active on the battlefield and achieve good results in almost every battle!
When the Saiyan Empire began to advance vigorously and conquered cities and territories...
The imperial clan supported by hostile civilizations could no longer sit still.
After all, selecting a civilization is related to the performance of the ‘Civilization Game’.
The 'participant' status of the 'Ancestral God Ceremony' that the top nine can get is only one of the benefits, and the remaining rankings will naturally have other benefits!
Therefore, when he found that the momentum was not right and that he could not win, the imperial clan became a little anxious and immediately contacted the town soul to discuss a truce.
Of course, this truce cannot just stop. After all, the Saiyan Empire has begun to take advantage. If the other side wants to cease the war and surrender, it is definitely unrealistic to pay tribute every year, but basic war damage compensation must still be paid.
some!
And it’s double compensation!
The enemy civilization compensates the Saiyan Empire.
The imperial clan compensates the soul of the town!
Although the Imperial Clan left most of their belongings in the outside world before entering the 'Civilization Game' and only brought a small amount of basic resources into the primitive river system, this does not mean that the Imperial Clan is completely impoverished!
This sudden peace negotiation made many war madmen in the Saiyan military a little dissatisfied. However, considering the losses caused by continuing the war and the benefits gained so far, the empire still resolutely implemented the peace plan.
Defeating powerful opponents makes the Saiyan Empire more confident!
Received a large amount of compensation, making the Saiyan Empire even more greedy!
The pace of expansion is starting to get even bigger!
…………
In the basement of the hospital.
An elderly Saiyan who looked extremely old, but was still strong and energetic walked slowly among them.
Kakarot's mood was complicated and difficult to understand at this time, because he was summoned by the...'god' from the Saiyan legend.
As a Saiyan who was born after the establishment of the empire, for him, 'god' is a concept that only exists in legends. Although when he was a child, he occasionally heard stories about 'god' from his grandfather.
But it never felt real.
Moreover, in his perception, like all Saiyans who have received higher education in the new era, 'God' is just some advanced alien civilization that invests in training because it takes a fancy to the Saiyans' talents.
, nothing more.
Of course, although he cannot personally understand the admiration and worship of the 'god' by the older generation of Saiyans, Kakarot also respects him very much as the being who guided the Saiyans from being rough and drinking blood to civilization!
Arriving in front of the gate, Kakarot exhaled a breath, adjusted his mood, and couldn't help but laugh at himself...
At his age and with countless adventure experiences, he is still nervous?!
After all, the one behind the door is ‘God’!
Gently pushing the door open, a simple room comes into view.
The next moment, Kakarot's eyes were attracted by the young man in the room who was deep in thought.
That is his figure that can often be seen in countless murals, sculptures, and movies!
The difference is that the 'god' at this time is not wearing the cloak that can hide his appearance, so you can clearly see the appearance of the 'god'!
The sound of pushing the door also woke up Lando from his meditation. He looked at the old Saiyan in front of him, and he vaguely saw a kind of pure consciousness in him!
Kakarot?!
When he first heard the name, Lando even couldn't believe it.
When he originally changed the name of the apes to Saiyans, including naming their leader Vegeta, it was just for some bad taste.
But when Kakarot appeared in his field of vision as a Saiyan hero, it still gave him a ridiculous feeling.
A coincidence of fate? Or...a joke of fate?!
Regardless of his experience, actions, or thoughts emanating from his consciousness, Kakarot is worthy enough to be called... a hero!
Looking at the latter, Lando's thoughts began to diverge unconsciously, thinking of the Human Alliance, the Arcane Empire, and even his motherland before reincarnation!
Any civilization needs the existence of heroes. They always charge forward, turning their backs to all living beings, like torches, burning themselves and lighting the way forward!
It is precisely because of their existence that civilization can overcome one difficulty after another and continue to reach new heights!
Lando suddenly laughed and said: "Do you want to be a hero?"
hero?!
Kakarot was confused.
He thought a lot before coming here, but he never expected that 'god' would ask such a question the first time he saw him.
You know, it is now the one hundred and seventy-fifth year of the imperial calendar, and Kakarot was born in the twenty-fifth year of the imperial calendar, which means that he is now one hundred and fifty years old!
Although after the establishment of the empire, conditions in all aspects were much better, and the new Saiyans were no longer as short-lived as their predecessors before the establishment of the empire.
But even if he has been genetically adjusted since birth, and even if he has practiced well in awakening his consciousness, at his current age, he can already feel that his end is approaching.
It’s quite remarkable that he doesn’t linger on his bedside in his old age like other ordinary old people!
Now, can he still be a hero?!
These thoughts almost passed through his mind, but almost subconsciously, Kakarot replied loudly: "Think!"
A smile appeared on Lando's lips and he said: "Even if that will make you face pain and sacrifice?"
Kakarot’s eyes were filled with determination that he had never seen before!
"Okay, I get it!" Lando stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place!"
Now that he has decided to strengthen the strength of the Saiyans, Lando will naturally not hold back!
The "plug-ins" opened by the civilization consciousness in the past were just a means of helping the Saiyans to catch up with other civilizations selected by the imperial clan who were not too transcendent.
Considering that there must be some imperial clans with special abilities that turn the selected civilization into a supermodel existence, Lando naturally has to leave enough means for the Saiyans to deal with it!
Under the leadership of the town soul, the three of them walked directly into the star sea and roamed.
This way of traveling alone in the universe shocked Kakarot and made him even more in awe of 'God'!
In almost a moment, the three of them crossed the limit of the area explored by the Saiyan Empire and headed towards the unknown starry sky.
Kakarot didn't have to wait long before the three of them arrived at a distant star system.
Among the planets surrounding the star system, there is a life star with a low-level civilization that has just escaped from the shackles of its parent star.
Kakarot's eyes were a little confused, but he didn't ask any questions. He believed that 'God' would explain it to him.
Lando said calmly: "I believe you also roughly understand the current situation of the Saiyan Empire."
Kakarot nodded slightly, it was nothing more than expansion and development.
Lando continued: "There are actually many existences like me in this river system. We each select a certain civilization to invest in and help them grow and expand!"
"You should also understand that once this kind of 'game' starts, it cannot end easily! In the end, you will all embark on the road to conquer the stars!"
Kakarot's eyes suddenly shrank. He never expected that while the 'god' was helping them, he would have such a story!
The appearance of the word "game" made his heart heavier and reminded him of many things.
But as ‘God’ said, ‘Once it starts, it cannot end easily’!
Take the current Saiyan Empire as an example. He simply cannot stop the empire from expanding. As long as the empire continues to move forward, sooner or later it will encounter other civilizations!
Moreover, continuing to expand can strengthen itself, but stopping development will only lead to self-destruction. He still understands this truth!
Lando ignored Kakarot's thoughts and continued: "In fact, with my help, the Saiyan Empire is already quite strong in terms of strength, and it will not be easily defeated by other civilizations."
"However, among the other selected civilizations, there are always some existences that are beyond common sense. If you are unlucky enough to encounter them, the Saiyan Empire may not end well!"
Kakarot had already calmed down and asked: "'God', what do you want me to do?"
Lando nodded approvingly, pointed to the life star in front of him, and said: "There is a powerful silicon-based life inside this life star, which is roughly equivalent to the 'indestructible' state."
"And because of his special physique, he can directly connect to some dimensional worlds, and the strength he can unleash is equivalent to that of someone wearing a divine armor of the same level, which is quite powerful!"
"I can use secret methods to help you take away this silicon-based life body, but you will experience unimaginable pain in the process!"
"If you succeed, you will directly inherit everything from him, but if you fail, not only will your consciousness die directly, but the Saiyan civilization consciousness will also be severely damaged!"
"Are you willing?!"
As Lando narrated, many of the proper nouns were naturally understood by Kakarot, allowing him to understand the whole story of the matter more clearly.
This made him hesitate.
Lando did not rush, but waited quietly.
The life star in front of him was one of the planets he and the town soul passed by when they first entered the 'Civilization Game'.
At that time, he saw that a silicon-based life was being nurtured on this planet.
The nature of this silicon-based life is extremely special. If it is given tens of millions of years to fully gestate, it may be able to achieve the state of 'immortality' at birth!
But even if it's just the current 'not bad' situation, it's still a dimensionality reduction attack for the entire primitive river system!
Lando also considered the civilization on this planet, but after observing it, he shook his head and gave up!
There are hundreds of national political systems on this small planet. They don't think about how to break away from the mother star and embark on the journey to the interstellar world. They calculate and calculate every day. They don't even think about whether the remaining resources of the mother star are enough for their development?!
If he chose this civilization, he felt that he would be in trouble for a long time in the future, so he just passed it!
After a long time, Kakarot breathed a long sigh of relief and his expression relaxed.
Lando smiled and said: "It seems that you have made a decision."
Kakarot nodded and said: "Yes, 'God'! In other words, I had no other choice from the beginning!"
"In the process of civilization, if you don't advance, you will be destroyed! The Saiyans will never pin the rise and fall of their own civilization on other civilizations. Since they will fight sooner or later, they should not let go of any opportunity!"
"Maybe what I was struggling with just now was that I just didn't want to bear such a heavy choice on myself, and I was just escaping instinctively!"
Ignoring the little pun in Kakarot's words, Lando nodded appreciatively. Heroes sometimes need to make choices, which represents both courage and responsibility!
Even if sometimes wrong choices can bring unimaginable disasters to civilization, even so, it is better than just giving up without doing anything!
Lando smiled and said: "Now that you have made up your mind, let's get started!"
Kakarot saluted respectfully: "Sorry to trouble you!"
Lando stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, and immediately, immeasurable light emitted.
Bathed in this radiance, Kakarot felt as if he was lying in his mother's gentle embrace.
This feeling seemed familiar, he had experienced it several times in the process of consciousness cultivation!
This is exactly what Lando received, the brilliance from the sea of Saiyan civilization consciousness!
