Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating! Chapter 201

Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Simple and Crude Method

Zast's secretary general, who was by his side, also showed a slight change in expression.

In the current situation, any statement from someone of Zast's status would have far-reaching impacts on all nations, and this statement seemed to be the worst-case scenario, right?

Indeed, that was the case.

“I've already understood the situation of your civilization. Simply by looking at your current state, you're hardly capable of contributing significantly to this crisis threatening all civilizations. Instead, you might just hold others back, which is absolutely unacceptable,” Zast said without sparing any feelings. His voice, amplified by the power of Extraordinary Power, spread far and wide, “Representing the will of the strongest Chosen One of all civilizations, I officially announce that from now on, we will take over your civilization and control everything here!”

This statement caused an uproar among the crowd.

For a civilization that had yet to achieve unity of power even during the Civilization Trial, the interests of individual nations, or even individuals, were more serious than the interests of the civilization as a whole.

They simply refused to compromise with each other, refused to contribute more, which was why they could not concentrate their power!

And now, an outsider was declaring to rule everything?

“Mr. Zast, please take back your words!” A female Louis, who had gazed at Zast with affection just a short while ago, now looked stern, “It's true that we've sought help from Human Civilization and we do face an extraordinary crisis, but that doesn't mean we should lose our power!”

“That's right!” Someone else added, “Even if the ultimate outcome is destruction, it should be our own choice!”

“Mr. Zast, Human Civilization may be powerful, but it cannot control us.”

“Are you truly going to wage war against us at this time?”

“Mr. Zast, we have hope of defeating the Undead on our own, and perhaps you should gain a deeper understanding of our power and make a cautious judgment instead of making such an arrogant and insulting declaration!”

Voice after voice, person after person, all accused him without mercy, many showing anger, some even warning.

It seemed in an instant, Zast had gone from an eagerly coveted prize to the target of everyone's censure.

And that was only to be expected.

Previously, Zast represented benefits, but now, his presence was a challenge for the interests of everyone.

“What I have said is not a matter for discussion, but merely a declaration,” Zast spoke out.

The next moment, engravings emerged on the back of his raised hand, and the terrifying Dominator Pressure swept over everyone present in an instant!

People who had been loudly condemning him just a second ago were now all kneeling on the ground, trembling under the Dominator Pressure.

Any interests, any self-confidence, were nothing in the face of this absolute Suppression!

Even laughable!

Indeed, Zast, a person of such stable character, had made such a radical choice, which naturally came with instructions from Shen Hao.

“There's no time to waste with them. The decline of Louis Civilization is completely due to their own doing. We will take control of all their High-level officials in the shortest time,” Shen Hao communicated his will, and the next moment, by Zast's side, one Chosen One after another appeared, gathering hundreds in a short time.

All were top Chosen Ones sent over through Shen's “Domain”!

Each one possessed tremendous power.

Together with the “Sovereign” Shen Hao had Divinely Descended, they were fully capable of taking control of the civilization's high command swiftly and silently.

Dealing with another civilization in such a blunt manner sometimes achieved surprising effects.

Especially for Louis Civilization.

Shen Hao had now come to understand the basic situation of the Louis People.

Just as he had told Zast, Louis Civilization had survived the first Trial and even lasted until now amidst internal strife because they had their source of confidence.

That was the Ancient Civilization!

Indeed, Louis Civilization was not the first to appear on this planet; there were genuine Ancient Relics present!

These were not the kind of relics awarded to Human Civilization in the first Civilization Trial. Based on the information Zast had gathered during this time, the level of that civilization had reached at least the third stage!

With a unique power called “Split Energy” as its main energy source, possessing various formidable manifestations, this energy seemed to lie between Transcendent and technology. It not only significantly enhanced individual power but could also integrate with technology to mass-produce powerful weapons.

For instance, a special technology called “Split Energy Armor” allowed the produced armor to merge into the flesh and blood of living beings, instantly transforming them into fighters comparable to those in the second stage of Extraordinary Power!

Yes, this thing could be mass-produced.

But it was controlled by just a few nations, who had not increased production to keep this power firmly in their hands!

And this was not an isolated case!

All countries were continuously delving into relic technology and conducting research, with many powerful results, yet they guarded against each other and did not cooperate!

Even though any visionary could see that cooperation between these powerful nations would unleash immense power, even the fifth-ranked one, facing the Undead crisis, still couldn't unite and maintained only the minimal cooperation needed!

Furthermore, some people even wished to push other Kingdoms toward destruction so they could snatch away their technology and benefits.

In such a situation, Shen Hao really had no interest in haggling with them.

“Take action,” Shen Hao finally said. “There are some conscientious individuals within this civilization who have realized the crisis. Moreover, the public outcry is substantial. As long as we take care of these so-called high-level figures, the entire civilization will stand with us.”

“Yes!” Zast took the command with everyone else.

After Shen Hao's gaze left, these “upper-class Louis people,” who had been stripped of all their confidence and had almost lost their selves to the Dominator pressure, finally stood up tremblingly, looking at the people before them with eyes full of fawning.

The Dominator pressure is not, in fact, brainwashing.

It is an absolute power, an overwhelming strength that assaults the spirit of every living being, leaving them no thought of resistance.

It is especially effective against the arrogantly self-centered and blindly confident.

Nevertheless, this method is still somewhat crude.

But in the current situation, there is no time to refine it further.

The situation of the Desert Tower Civilization is critical enough, with more than thirteen billion people in Civilization No. 9, and in just one day, over five hundred million have died.

Slightly better off than the Desert Tower Civilization, but only by a very limited margin.

“For now, let's leave Civilization No. 9 be,” Shen Hao dispersed his power, feeling a touch of trouble.

Both Desert Tower Civilization and Civilization No. 9 seem to be in pretty bad shape.

At least for now, they're all dragging their feet.

Hope that No.8 Civilization won't disappoint him.

Shen Hao then turned his attention to Kong Zhaoxia.

The fifty-year-old master of national studies was also attending a banquet at the moment.

However, quite unlike the banquets in the Louis Civilization, which were held purely for the struggle over interests and mutual slander, Kong Zhaoxia met the supreme ruler of this civilization–the Empress of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, Xi Qing.

Indeed, this was a civilization filled with Spiritual Energy and primarily focused on Cultivation.

However, it differed slightly from the cultivation path available to human civilization through the Chosen One Mall.

It seemed more aligned with certain branches of the Immortal Dao.

Just by what Kong Zhaoxia could see at the banquet, some generals had such strong blood and qi that they were no less powerful than the formidable martial artists of the Mongolian Civilization, and some civil servants were filled with immense Divine Sense power. Although the foundation of their power was still Spiritual Power, it was evident that their path was more destructive.

As for the Empress seated high on the steps…

Kong Zhaoxia couldn't fathom her at all; the only thing she was certain of was that the Empress's strength was far superior to hers!

And she was considered the strongest cultivator in human civilization.

“No wonder they managed to come in second,” Kong Zhaoxia thought to herself.

At that moment, the youthful yet majestic Empress suddenly let out a soft “hmm” and then looked towards Kong Zhaoxia.

Although she said nothing, Shen Hao clearly knew that she had detected his gaze.

Indeed, her strength was impressive.

Although she hadn't reached the third stage yet, she was very close, and her power foundation was incredibly strong. Shen Hao detected several abilities at least of the Golden Legendary Level in her.

Could it be a Golden Legendary Talent?

This speculation appeared in Shen Hao's mind.

Though the odds of one in a million were low, it wasn't impossible.

However, even though he knew she was aware of his focus on this place, Shen Hao had no intention of making a direct appearance.

Kings shouldn't confront each other directly.

If he appeared, it would surely take all the prestige, which, for a reigning Empress, especially one in a purely feudal civilization, would be an outright provocation.

At least for now, it wasn't his moment to step in.

Shen Hao simply passed some information to Kong Zhaoxia.

“My lords,” Kong Zhaoxia stood up and said, “I have just received instructions from the President, both the Desert Tower Civilization and Louis Civilization are in dire straits, with over 1.7 billion people perishing in just one day.”

These words clearly caused a certain amount of unrest in the court.

1.7 billion people?

That was undoubtedly an astonishing number!

At the beginning of the second Trial, the Mongolian Civilization and Siti Civilization only had that many people!
