Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 562 - 317: The Development of the Human Civilization Alliance (2)
In fact, because those Great Powers and Great Immortals are no longer around, the fortune distributed to each Immortal Official is even greater than before!
Becoming an Immortal has also become easier.
Moreover, it seems that the Heavenly Court does not oppose their departure.
In such circumstances, the number of Heavenly Court Immortal Officials seeking employment in the Human Civilization Alliance is naturally increasing.
"For the time being, we are only recruiting two types of Immortal Officials. First, the local protection Immortal Officials, such as the Land God, City God, and Mountain God. Second, the production-type Immortal Officials, whether in alchemy, planting, or artifact refining, each has their own craft and can increase production." Secretary Ji Mingshu paused, then continued, "We are currently considering recruiting some Immortal Officials responsible for teaching, but have not yet started executing this plan."
The current demand for these Immortal Officials is very low.
They merely need some fortune and some cultivation resources to ensure they can continue their cultivation, and that is sufficient.
This allows this portion of Immortal Officials to have a great impact in protecting the people.
Even in some near-modern worlds almost devoid of Extraordinary Power, some Immortal Officials are willing to guard a region. Even the weakest Land God is generally at the realm of an Earth Immortal, already considered a Great Power with impressive strength.
If it weren’t for them, the population loss brought by the ongoing war with the meteor monsters would at least double.
Though this also increases the demand for resources.
However, besides using ever-optimized efficient methods to increase resource production, the Human Civilization Alliance is also importing resources on a large scale from other worlds.
Such as the High Martial World, Wizard World, and even the Immortal Cultivation World.
These worlds are all resource exporters.
And now there’s also a Beast Taming World. If the Beast Taming World can be somewhat controlled and developed, it might become the largest resource exporter.
Therefore, resources and fortune are barely sufficient.
Shen Yu slightly nodded and then picked up the next document.
This document was concerning war.
"The enemy has not employed a constant means of attack," Ji Mingshu’s explanation consistently followed Shen Yu’s gaze, "We can clearly observe that the monsters the enemy is deploying are becoming more refined, both in number and the diversity of Laws, which is constantly changing, placing some pressure on us."
The enemy continues to deploy meteor monsters even after realizing they cannot obliterate human civilization in one go.
Naturally, this is not to test human civilization.
But rather a simple war of attrition.
Consuming human civilization in number reduces the gathering of fortune, weakening the number of powerful individuals in human civilization.
It is clearly a straightforward tactic.
However, such a tactic also demonstrates the enemy’s confidence.
If they lacked sufficient confidence, they would inevitably lose in such a war of attrition.
It somewhat resembles the Association’s usual methods.
—— If victory cannot be achieved in one stroke, a stalemate is maintained, partial victory accumulated with the Gray Mist, accelerates development, and eventually secures victory.
"Are they comparing growth potential with us?" A hint of an amused smile appeared at the corner of Shen Yu’s mouth, "Such confidence is an insult to us."
"Indeed," Ji Mingshu also smiled faintly.
As a secretary with titular duties in the Association, Ji Mingshu naturally understood how mighty the Association was.
And how rapidly these civilizations have developed.
Initially, the Interstellar Civilization was purely a technological civilization, utterly ignorant of Extraordinary Power.
But merely twelve years have passed.
The current development of the Interstellar Civilization in the Extraordinary Domain has reached the realm of Laws!
Indeed, the realm of Laws.
This was largely thanks to the inspiration and experience brought by the enemies from the Primordial World.
"The joint R&D base established by the Interstellar Civilization and the Wizard Civilization has already created the initial generation of Law-Biological Weapons." Ji Mingshu directly indicated the next document, "Although these Law-Biological Weapons cannot yet compare to the optimized meteor monsters currently deployed by the enemy, they are not much weaker than some of the initial meteor monsters. Some experts even believe these biological weapons can be tentatively introduced to the battlefield."
Shen Yu also picked up this document. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Indeed, it listed some research findings.
However, aside from Ji Mingshu’s suggestions just now, most of the suggestions were not to rush into the battlefield.
On one hand, rushing into the battlefield might alert the enemy.
On the other hand, these initial biological weapons still pose uncontrollable risks.
And the battlefield is, after all, their own land.
This is actually a significant disadvantage.
After all, most of these meteor monsters act on instinct, indistinguishable between friend and foe, even on the enemy’s side, actually sharing this characteristic.
"So, the biggest issue is still locating the enemy," Shen Yu expressed slight regret.
He had tried using the Gray Mist to locate them.
But under the protection and interference of the Heavenly Dao, not even Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor, could find them. The amount of Gray Mist needed is simply unimaginable.
Completely not worth it.
"No rush, first utilize some controllable technologies, staying on par with the enemy’s progress is sufficient," Shen Yu finally said.
By "controllable technologies," he primarily referred to War Puppets.
The experimental War Puppets now even reached the level of a Taiyi True Immortal!
Yes, equivalent to a Level Seven Wizard.
Though the Wizard Civilization actually already possessed such technology, the cost was extremely high.
Almost over ten times the cost of training a Level Seven Wizard.
However, with the participation and optimization by the Interstellar Civilization, the costs have substantially decreased.
The primary reduction lies in energy.
The Interstellar Civilization, primarily a technological civilization, consistently delves into the truth of the material world, especially in terms of energy, reaching levels unattainable by the Wizard Civilization.
Ultimately, the convenience of Extraordinary Power inevitably impacts the technological development on the material level.
In summary, after the collision of technologies from the two civilizations, the cost of producing such a level of War Puppet is now lower than cultivating a Level Seven Wizard, and more efficient.
Although large-scale production is currently unachievable, with certain stages heavily reliant on some high-level Extraordinaries, it still manages to keep up with the enemy in optimizing the meteor monsters.
This is also the main reason why the Primordial World can dispatch so many strong beings to other worlds.
Shen Yu reviewed all the accumulated documents and ultimately came to a conclusion.
"Time is still on our side."
Since it’s certain that time is on their side, time will become ample.
And will accelerate.
Everyone just needs to proceed with orderly development.
Subsequent events unfolded just as Shen Yu predicted.
In the span of three years, things rapidly progressed while maintaining this state.
The war continues, with a new generation growing up within the Human Civilization Alliance, some even participating in the war.
Meanwhile, development in the rear continues to steadily stabilize.
At this moment, Shen Yu was conducting a discreet visit in a rather ordinary Great Ming World.
This world now shows little sign of the Great Ming.
The entire world has over a hundred massive cities, each housing nearly ten million people.
The wilderness is not entirely given over to meteor monsters either.
Instead, there are numerous production bases.
These farmlands have become the main battlefield, with each location garrisoned and patrolled by a large number of warriors, continually eliminating all meteor monsters threatening the production bases.
