RUN AWAY, THIS CIVILIZATION IS CHEATING!

Chapter 449: Chapter 358: Great Sun Immortal Sect_2

Especially those who demonstrated their Talent.

The results of the Observation weren’t particularly good, but they were quite a bit better than expected.

The high-level officials were somewhat self-interested, but the order was strict, with strict assessments from even higher levels. The middle level had a strong sense of belonging to the Great Sun Immortal Sect, with clear opportunities for advancement. Overall, the atmosphere was quite striving and progressive, whereas the lower levels were somewhat numb and resigned, not holding much hope for the future, yet still longing to live.

This included their battles against Weird Demons, which were similar.

On one hand, they were indifferent, not seeking merit but only to avoid faults. On the other hand, the middle level strove fiercely, desiring rewards, and then there were the numb lower levels who, when danger and death loomed, would also panic and scramble.

Zhuang Ying had once recorded a neither large nor small incident, where high-level officials demanded perseverance, and some farmers near the city walls, who couldn’t evacuate in time, were rescued by a warrior of about Level 37, strong but not among the elite, who risked his life to save them.

Such events were not frequent, but they could serve as a microcosm of the social structure of this small world.

Even, one could roughly discern the situation within the target world of the so-called “Great Sun Immortal Sect.”

However, just as Feng Ping and others had finished recording the state of this world, and were preparing to temporarily depart, they scouted some unexpected information.

It was from one of the top warriors in this world.

Named Master Hao Wu.

After he received the routine documents from the “Upper Realm,” he quickly gathered some of his closest followers.

“The war in the outer regions has been lost,” Master Hao Wu’s face was very grim, “we lost six small worlds in one fell swoop, marking the third major defeat in nearly thirty years.”

“What shall we do?” His followers were all visibly shocked.

“They will surely call for more troops.”

“The last time it was our turn, not even one-tenth came back!”

“With so many warriors in the Immortal Sect, why must they always send us to the front lines?”

“Just sending one Great Power should keep the front lines from consistently suffering major defeats!”

“Hmph, they’re just afraid to die. The people in the Immortal Sect have long lost their edge.”

“…”

Perhaps because everyone present was a close follower of Hao Wu, they spoke without any reservations and even named names when criticizing some of the high-level individuals in the Immortal Sect, allowing Zhuang Ying, who was hiding nearby eavesdropping, to keenly record everything.

The dissatisfaction of a top-level warrior in a small world with headquarters, coupled with the loss at the front, was all considered extremely important information.

However, when Hao Wu spoke, he first rebuked the one who had criticized the sect.

“Don’t say such things, without the Immortal Sect, could we survive in the Night? Moreover, there are warriors in the Immortal Sect who are constantly fighting on the front lines. The urgent matter is to first figure out what we should do; there’s not much time. This defeat means the summoning order will soon reach us,” Hao Wu said, his expression also anxious.

With his capability, he could have completely stayed at the headquarters of the Immortal Sect, but the reason he returned to the small world was naturally because of the opportunity to control a small world and gain more resources through some not-so-orderly means.

However, the headquarters were clearly also aware of this.

Years of defeats had led them to pull people from the small world to the front lines.

It was literally a struggle between life and death, no exaggeration!

He’d wanted to return to the Immortal Sect more than once, but was refused each time.

“Now, there is only one solution!” someone gritted their teeth, “Spend money to avoid disaster, as long as we show our capabilities in cultivation, we will not be sent to the front lines.”

“Exactly,” the rest agreed. One even directly suggested, “First, hold back the rewards for the lower levels, and use this opportunity. If they don’t want to be cannon fodder, they’ll have to give up resources.”

“It’s the only way. If it’s still not enough, we’ll pitch in.”

“What if those higher-ups are insatiable?”

“What to do? Hmph, I’ll just say my cultivation went wrong and I was corrupted by the Night, let’s see if they dare to send me!”

“…”

These people then planned various ways to avoid warfare on the front lines.

The most extreme measures even included self-inflicted serious injuries.

Especially when it allowed the corruption by the night.

It was the simplest and most effective method.

As long as one cultivated during the night, they would be corrupted by the Night Law, and in severe cases, even transform into Weird Demons. Many powerful Weird Demons had originated this way; under such circumstances, no one wished to see their compatriots become Weird Demons.

This caused Zhuang Ying, who was silently watching from the side, to show a slight change in expression.

Don’t they know that once the Great Sun Immortal Sect falls, they are all undoubtedly doomed to die?

No, it’s not necessarily unclear to them.

However, even so, no one wanted to be the first to die.

Clearly, there were significant issues within this native civilization.

However, while eavesdropping, some unexpected information was also gathered.

“I heard that the Exploration Team discovered some rather powerful small worlds.”

“I heard about it too, two or three, right?”

“That’s right, those few small worlds, despite not being high levels, have not yet fallen; they clearly have a trick up their sleeve.”

“Wonder if it’s possible to make connections to go there. Do you know the location?”

“I only know the general area; we need to ask someone.”

“….”

Newly discovered small worlds, quite powerful, not high level, yet unoccupied.

Piecing these pieces of information together led to some speculations.

It was very likely one of the other Trial Civilizations’ Affiliated Civilizations.

Human Civilization was here, not just the Star Moon Civilization, but also another subordinate Affiliated Civilization; hence, having other Trial Civilizations’ Affiliated Civilizations in this area wasn’t surprising.

Although no precise coordinates were obtained, knowing this bit was enough.

And when all this information was gathered in Shen Hao’s hands, he immediately started searching on the Small Map.

There were quite a few unbreached small worlds, approximately two to three hundred, mostly clustered near that Sixth Rank world; the areas mentioned in the intelligence as fallen zones could also be quickly located, some small worlds’ Weird Demon populations were indeed rapidly growing; as for those suspected to be other Trial Civilizations’ Affiliated Civilizations, it was temporarily hard to determine.

However, if the remaining Trial Civilizations also turned their attention to this area… then things needed to be hurried.

“Let’s shift from dark to light,” Shen Hao decided after pondering, “The basic situation of the Great Sun Immortal Sect is already pretty much understood, at least they are natural allies on the front lines, no need to investigate in secret anymore. Let’s send an envoy, switching to overt operations, at least before other Trial Civilizations notice them, to seize a certain initiative…”

Compared to other Trial Civilizations, the indigenous civilization was easier to approach.

After all, there were competitive relationships among Trial Civilizations.

Especially in this case where they shared regional coordinates.

Prior to conquering the capability to traverse regions, the only source of points for the Trial Civilizations lay in these areas containing Affiliated Civilizations, especially if Human Civilization wanted to compete for first place; it’s best not to miss any opportunity to earn points, otherwise, once all possible regions were exhausted without achieving first place or mastering inter-regional technology, they would have to concede the first place.

Shen Hao’s decision also received unanimous agreement from the united front structure, and a plan was rapidly formulated.

It was handed over to the Scout Team who had been observing the front lines for some time.

They would be directly transitioning from the Scout Troop to become envoys of civilization.

When the task update was received, Zhuang Ying’s reaction was still slightly odd; after all, transitioning from a Scout to an Envoy was somewhat unusual.

But Feng Ping was very composed.

His first mission had been the same, initially designated for reconnaissance, but later it turned into an embassy.
