Next, many newly arrived civilizations obtained territories. However, as they moved lower in the rankings and the level of civilizations decreased, the territories they obtained became more and more remote. Even some fifth-level civilizations were assigned to several In a galaxy. It is foreseeable that there will inevitably be conflicts during future development.
In fact, the excellent division of China's territory is also the result of superimposing the rewards for third place in civilized performance.
It took about a month to divide the territories, mainly to resolve the dissatisfaction and conflicts of the civilizations whose territories were close together.
But after the territory was divided, all civilization representatives suddenly became silent, because everyone knew that next, the main purpose of this conference, at least on the surface, was coming: the civilization ranking challenge! However, no one knows the specific details.
Baldur King Zach Payne came to the front again: "Everyone, what follows is the competition that all heroes have been waiting for. This is a ranking competition for civilization, and it is also a competition for heroes to show their self-worth.
Why is this contest being held? In other words, why is there a new ranking of civilizations? It's very simple, because there is something wrong with the Universal Civilization Alliance.
Hundreds of millions of years have passed since the establishment of the Alliance of Universal Civilizations. Over this long period of time, the Alliance of Universal Civilizations has actually aged! This is a fact, although this fact always makes us unable to face it. In the past tens of millions of years, our technological research and development, our social development, etc. have begun to stand still. We seem to have reached a dead end.
Some people say, are our development directions wrong? Sorry, we cannot answer this topic for the time being; but at least we can say that we have been on the right track in the past, but we are exploring in the future.
Some people also say, have we reached the end of development? No. We can answer this question with a resounding no! Because there are still so many unknown things in the universe, and we have not yet mastered the power of creation! In this case, it means that our development has not reached the end, and the future is still endless.
Don't say anything else. Everyone knows that we are getting the means to extend our lifespan from another universe. Such a vast universe seems to tell us that our development path is endless.
In this case, in order to promote the progress of the Universal Civilization Alliance and for a broader future, it is time for us to make changes.
After all our eight-level civilization discussions, we believe that peace for too long has made us lazy and unwilling to make progress.
certainly. If we start a war, it will obviously not be suitable for our development. In this way, we developed a challenge, a large-scale challenge. Or war!
This kind of challenge is to list and rank all the current civilizations above level five. This ranking is based on previous data.
If you are not satisfied with your current ranking, you can challenge someone with a higher ranking.
The general rules are as follows:
First, it is a small, controlled war. Our purpose is to penetrate the development of social science and technology. Instead of destruction and war. Therefore one must pay attention to mercy in war. This point doesn’t need to be said, right? Does anyone need special explanation to stand up? very good. If massacres, torture of prisoners and other bad incidents are discovered in the future, don’t blame advanced civilizations for intervening.
Second, since it is a small and controllable war, we will designate multiple fixed battlefields throughout the star field, and the number of everyone must be limited to less than 1 billion.
third. The civilization being challenged has the right to reject it unconditionally. But the ranking dropped.
Fourth, when a civilization loses more than one-tenth of its total, no civilization may continue to attack.
Finally, we will launch a series of challenge competitions at this conference. And show you some rules and methods. In the future, everyone’s challenges will need to follow the template shown this time.
Similarly, we will explain more specific requirements bit by bit during the on-site battle. ”
As soon as this information was made public, there was an uproar on the scene! In fact, only the eighth-level civilization knows about these plans; but no one from the eighth-level civilization has revealed any information to the outside world. Of course, this is not the main reason. The most important thing is that the Universal Civilization Alliance will enter an era of war from today on!
But the people present were representatives of at least level five civilizations, so everyone was not bothered by the experience. While silent, it was also very clear: war is really the best way to promote technological progress. As long as it is controlled within a reasonable range, although there will still be pain, but with the temptation of technological and social progress, such considerations are completely feasible!
And today’s Alliance of Universal Civilizations is indeed sick! Because war cannot be carried out, everyone should try their best to control it! In fact, many civilizations have already had grievances among themselves for a long time! This needs to be vented! Otherwise, if it continues to be suppressed and fermented, one day it will completely explode, with disastrous consequences.
War sometimes does not necessarily have to be for resources, territory, etc. Many times, war is for: revenge! I just don't like you, so I want to beat you!
The list is public. This is the ranking list of all civilizations above level five in the Universal Civilization Alliance. As for the entire list, it is basically as fair as possible. For example, although the Chinese civilization has just won a third-class award, because it has just entered the seventh-level civilization, China's ranking among the seventh-level civilizations is at the bottom. If China is really ranked at the top, there will definitely be countless challenges.
But as mentioned before, if the ranking is not necessarily reasonable, there will be no battle! Others are just for hatred!
Zhang Yingxiu silently looked ahead, looked around, and looked at the representatives of various civilizations with different expressions, but most of them were excited. But I was sighing in my heart, although this is conducive to the development of civilization, it may cause eternal pain! But yes, there is no progress without pain; hundreds of millions of years of peace have proven that short-term peace is conducive to the development of civilization; but long-term peace has made intelligent beings relax their vigilance, and of course there is laziness. . And once you get lazy, you have to retreat!
Although war is not good, it is really the best means to stimulate social progress and promote human thinking. Why is Chinese civilization so brilliant? The era when Chinese civilization reached its peak and matured was also a turbulent era - the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period! And this situation generally exists in every civilization above level five.
"How about we come first? Let's challenge the Chinese civilization and see why the Chinese civilization that just came here is ranked above us!" A representative of the civilization stood up. Real projections are directly displayed in every room of the conference venue, enabling instant communication. At the same time, information such as the introduction of this civilization, its current ranking, and the name of its representative are also displayed next to the projection.
There is no surprise for Zhang Yingxiu - there is no ghost unless there is a challenge. This is a civilization called Talaya, and it is also a humanoid intelligent life, ranking just below China. The Talaya civilization is a superpower civilization. They are the kind of civilization that specializes in developing magic wands, divine armor, magic, etc. Not many such civilizations have entered the interstellar era, but every such civilization is the stronghold of the "gods", each with superior combat effectiveness. Because of the excessive emphasis on superpowers, every citizen is a war madman.
While other civilizations only regard lifespan and health as the core of development, what they develop is combat effectiveness. Maybe their lifespan is not as good as that of ordinary civilizations, but their combat effectiveness is very powerful.
Of course, don't think that superpowers really develop superpowers, they will change as they develop. It's just that they use the concept of superpowers to develop technological weapons.
Differences in concepts have resulted in completely opposite results. Although everyone uses nuclear energy to extract energy, and although everyone is using matter in the universe to develop technology, the results are quite different.
For example, general civilizations pay more attention to the overall society, but they emphasize the social status of individuals. Ordinary civilizations will focus on allowing citizens to enjoy basic treatment; but they have divided society into dozens of levels, each level enjoying different rights, and some even have a slave class. Ordinary civilizations focus on the popularization of science and technology and mainly serve society; but they emphasize the cutting-edge nature of science and technology and serve a small number of people. In short, there are still many differences. These superpower civilizations seem to have gone to the other extreme!
But their strength is also obvious to all! An extremely powerful individual that other civilizations dare not underestimate! Because these powerful individuals can even travel across space alone and then carry out beheading operations! They won't engage in team battles with you, they will all be elite beheading battles! Of course, they also have area attack weapons.
In short, most superpower civilizations are extreme civilizations. In contrast, in terms of overall ratings, their ratings will be deliberately lowered.
Superpower civilization is often called the civilization of lunatics.
If someone jumps out, everyone immediately shuts up and prepares to watch the show.
"Representatives of the Chinese civilization, do you accept or reject it?" Bode King Zach Payne looked at the Chinese side, "After all, the Chinese civilization has just entered the cosmic civilization alliance, and many preparations are not sufficient. I think even if it is... Rejection is understandable.”
This Baldur King Zach Payne took the initiative to find an excuse and step for Chinese civilization. The combat capabilities of this superpower civilization are often one level higher than their overall ranking.
"No, we accept the challenge!" Zhang Yingxiu stood up, and the "projection" looked at Sean Black, the representative of Tellaya civilization. "Chinese civilization has never been afraid of challenges. I heard that your Talaya civilization has a strong single combat capability? What do you think of this? We will each send 100,000 people to fight on the spot. All combatants can only use mechas, Single weapons, etc. Not used by large spaceships, drones, etc." (To be continued...)
