Chapter 764: Chapter 520: The Manager’s Fear
Simply put, it’s the rapid increase in the legion’s combat power.
Previously, the combat power comparison between human civilization and the demonized army could reach a ratio of 1:10 at the same level.
This took into account various equipment, magic, and even the special attack effects brought by Shen Hao’s Emperor’s suppression.
Under certain circumstances, such as holding a strategic advantage or being led by a particularly strong Chosen One, the ratio could be even more favorable.
That’s why, even though the enemies outnumbered the trial civilizations by more than ten times at every level, they could still fight to this extent.
Now, this advantage in individual strength has been further enhanced.
Especially at the Eighth Stage level.
Almost all Level 8 warriors have upgraded their equipment.
At this stage, the importance of level actually outweighs the quality.
Not to mention, the level gap between the mid and late Eighth Stage.
Level 76 Red Mythical Equipment, at best, can only match Level 77 Purple Epic Equipment.
It is incomparable to Level 77 Golden Legendary Equipment.
Currently, in the VIP Mall, Golden Legendary Equipment of the same level as the Civilization Mall is already available in large quantities.
Under the effect of cheats, even Red Mythical Equipment appears regularly.
This is a major upgrade!
Sufficient to cause a qualitative change in combat power!
Even without considering high-end combat power, ordinary warriors have also undergone significant upgrades from the Level 77 resources in the Civilization Mall.
Some breakthrough technologies, after rapid research and analysis, can be directly applied to all warriors.
Major upgrades to lifebound battleships, legion formations, and even magic and weapons…
These enhancements certainly require time, and the entire research framework of human civilization is operating at high speed.
Even strong warriors like Qiuyue and Yang Jun, who focus primarily on combat missions, are taking the time to complete their research tasks on the front lines.
After all, aside from technology, other research on the Extraordinary Path is closely related to the Extraordinary Level.
At the same time, the warriors of the Heavenly Dao Civilization also seem to feel the hope of pursuing sovereignty and the future.
The highest commander of the Heavenly Dao Civilization is naturally Huan Yu.
This powerful being, who has embodied thousands of avatars, each reaching Stage 8, has his primary consciousness essentially becoming the collective consciousness of these countless avatars, presenting a collective persona effect.
More rational and wise.
For the trial civilizations, it is very common to have such a collective consciousness manage an entire civilization.
They have little personal desire and exceptional ability.
Therefore, Huan Yu genuinely feels a sense of hope.
“The human civilization is indeed fully supporting us,” one of his core avatars said at an internal meeting of the Heavenly Dao Civilization, “Although there are some differences between their cultivation path and our core path, they generally align in the same direction, providing us with great support. I can feel the breakthrough for our Heavenly Dao is close at hand.”
Yes, this is the core theme of this meeting.
The core of the Heavenly Dao Civilization’s Heavenly Dao is naturally their mother planet’s collective Extraordinary Rules, manifested as a Transcendent Rule source with consciousness but no ego.
If the strength of human civilization increases with Shen Hao’s life level, then the collective consciousness of the Heavenly Dao Civilization will surge with the rise of their civilization’s level.
This is one of the reasons why the Heavenly Dao Civilization has chosen this path.
Chosen Ones might encounter bottlenecks, long-term or even perpetual limitations at one level, unable to break through. However, the Transcendent Level of the trial civilization’s mother planet will improve with each trial’s rewards.
Even though Shen Hao knows that, in the future timeline where the cheating panel exists, the Heavenly Dao Civilization might be destroyed or imprisoned due to the Civilization Trial System’s punishment, as of now, this civilization indeed has the potential to become a supreme force of all heavens.
They just need their mother planet to step into the Ninth Stage world.
Even if it’s just a planet, it will become incredibly powerful at that point.
Now, the Heavenly Dao Level of their civilization is finally about to pass a critical point.
Level 77.
Since entering this trial world, it has been Level 76, and even the distance to Level 77 was not far.
They were prepared to achieve a breakthrough during this trial.
Once they break through, the Heavenly Dao Civilization will officially enter the most powerful tier of trial civilizations, and this trial crisis will no longer threaten them.
This is also why the Heavenly Dao Civilization insists on maintaining sovereignty, despite other civilizations having already joined human civilization.
“Human civilization indeed displays the true character of an ally,” another warrior said at the meeting, “With the various high-level resources they provide, the breakthrough of the Heavenly Dao Consciousness is imminent. The estimated breakthrough timeline is between three hundred to seven hundred years, within which we can meet the final ranking reward. However, during this process, we will be relatively vulnerable…”
