153: From the day I was born, I had no choice
New section, Land of Dawn.
Chen Du didn't know if this section was the first time the High Martial Civilization had learned about it.
But for him, it was the first time he had heard of it.
Blue Star is very big, even for first-year students like Chen Du, the Land of Abandoned Armor is big enough.
If they can't even figure out the Land of Abandoned Armor, how can they talk about places further out?
Therefore, even in the Three Top Academies, they wouldn't tell first-year students about places beyond the Land of Abandoned Armor.
To avoid being overly ambitious.
Just like you eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time.
Achieving success overnight is impossible.
What you see as achieving success overnight is only seeing that one step of his ascent.
The countless footprints before that have long been buried by history, known only to oneself.
The newly discovered civilization, Itera Civilization.
I believe it won't be long before the 632 Alien Civilizations on the Qilin Martial Arts University APP turn into 633.
It's a pity this Alien is too difficult to distinguish.
Their overall strength is even stronger than the Upper Civilization here in the Land of Abandoned Armor.
As well as their terrifying ability to change their own brainwaves.
The only good news is that the conditions are harsh, so it shouldn't be an ability that can be used casually.
This allows them to naturally infiltrate civilizations that look similar, as brainwaves are absolutely Unique.
Compared to methods like fingerprints and voiceprints that twins can bypass, it's much stronger.
Although the iris is also Unique, current technology and some Alien Civilizations can change their own irises.
Therefore, brainwave detection is the only solution.
It is also the method the Technology Martial Hall has used to detect Alien Civilizations for the past hundred years.
Although it still can't prevent some Alien Civilizations from mixing in, they don't possess the ability to change brainwaves.
Instead, they use another form to avoid detection, or to make the detection results appear normal.
Chen Du silently noted these three key pieces of information.
As a person who always plans ahead, even if there are no spies within the High Martial Civilization.
Chen Du would still assume there would be spies in the future.
This personality makes him live a bit tiringly, always unable to put himself in a comfortable environment, needing to anticipate enemies that may not necessarily appear in the future.
And thus take preventative measures now.
Chen Du was not born with this personality, but rather it was shaped by the educational philosophy of the High Martial Civilization.
And the Alien Civilizations that invaded when Chen Du was young, together formed it.
Although he doesn't know the specific purpose of this Itera Civilization now, Chen Du can generally guess.
To put it plainly, wars between civilizations often stem from the struggle for resources.
It is conceivable that when this Itera Civilization developed to a certain stage in the Land of Dawn, it encountered a Bottleneck that was difficult to Breakthrough.
So much so that it could not advance further.
If they wanted to continue expanding their sphere of influence, they would inevitably urgently need a large amount of resource support.
However, facing those Great Civilizations whose strength far exceeded theirs, the Itera Civilization knew it was outmatched and completely powerless to contend with them.
So, they turned their attention to the inconspicuous sections on Blue Star, which were full of relatively weaker Small Civilizations.
Although the resources Controlled by these Small Civilizations are relatively limited.
They are as insignificant as a mosquito's leg, but as the saying goes, many a little makes a mickle.
Even a small amount of resources, for the ambitious Itera Civilization, is like water in a desert.
According to You Zhong's statement just now, the overall strength of the Itera Civilization is even stronger than the Upper Civilization here.
If the two civilizations were to fight one-on-one, the opponent would probably be an invincible existence.
But if they were ambitiously coveting the entire Land of Abandoned Armor, then Chen Du firmly believed that the other party would never succeed.
Although this Itera Civilization is powerful, it is still only in the Small Civilization class after all.
No matter how powerful it is, its strength is limited.
It cannot compare with those powerful Great Civilizations.
You know, on this Land of Abandoned Armor, there are Lower Civilizations, Middle Civilizations, Upper Civilizations, and even the most powerful Top Upper Civilizations.
There are nearly a hundred of them in total.
To try to contend with so many powerful opponents by oneself is tantamount to a fool's dream, simply a fantasy.
Based on all the above analyses, Chen Du secretly speculated.
Perhaps You Zhong was just a pawn used by the Itera Civilization to test the overall strength of the Land of Abandoned Armor.
Pang Tian Ce paused slightly at this point, staring intently at You Zhong with his eyes that seemed to contain a sea of stars.
Mixed with a hint of unconcealed regret:
"However, you are even more alert than I thought."
"You discovered this in advance and also noticed that I was suspicious of you."
"But in this situation, you still chose to act, even at the cost of igniting your own Life Ignition Cord."
"The purpose of this transport mission was just a test for you personally."
"But your actions completely exceeded my expectations."
"I can't even imagine what you want to achieve now."
Pang Tian Ce stopped abruptly at this point.
He gazed at You Zhong with an unprecedentedly serious attitude, and then continued solemnly:
"Everyone does everything for a purpose."
"So..."
"What exactly do you want?!"
"Has the High Martial Civilization ever wronged you?"
"The choice you are making now is absolutely wrong!"
Facing Pang Tian Ce's thunderous, sky-shattering question, You Zhong remained silent.
He just stood there quietly, as if his whole body had been frozen, unmoving.
However, from his slightly trembling lips and furrowed brows, it could be seen that his heart was not calm at this moment.
Suddenly, You Zhong seemed to have thought of something extremely bad, and a bitter smile instantly appeared on his face.
This smile was uglier than crying, full of helplessness and sorrow.
The smile was like the cold wind in winter, making people shiver.
"No, the High Martial Civilization has been very good to me."
He slowly raised his head, then looked up at the sky, squinting slightly to block the dazzling sunlight.
Above, a dazzling sun hung high, emitting scorching and intense light.
He gently shook his head, as if trying to shake off the dizzying light interference.
Then, he shifted his gaze back to the two people standing in front of him, a hint of helplessness reappearing on his face:
"When my wife was pregnant with our second child, the Itera Civilization found me."
"And they showed me with actual actions the fact that we are all pure-blooded Itera people."
"I am an abandoned infant who had my brainwaves changed through a special ritual shortly after birth, and was then left in the High Martial Civilization."
"They calculated my personality and made me their secret soldier."
"If I refused, they would kill me, my wife, and my two children."
You Zhong said this, looking at Pang Tian Ce and Chen Du in front of him, his calm eyes revealing a trace of unconcealed sorrow:
"Choice?"
"From the day I was born, there was no choice!"
