751: law of cause and effect

The power of a Universe overlord-level civilization made Yang Dian feel somewhat anxious.

Is there a difference between Earth and the Green Star civilization?

You could say there is.

The Green Star civilization follows a technological path, like hopping on one foot.

Earth advances personal martial prowess and technology side-by-side, walking on both feet.

But is there really?

In reality, there isn't that much of a difference.

When encountering an existence like the Nuo Ling Civilization, it seems that no matter how one struggles, they will end up like a bug on the side of the road, kicked away at will.

If truly targeted, perhaps one can only hope that the Nuo Ling Civilization is kind-hearted, treating Earthlings the same way they treated the Green Star people, leaving behind a spark of civilization for Earth.

But is this what Yang Dian wants?

Of course not.

What he wants is to follow his heart, and what he desires is for Huaxia to stand at the peak of the Universe.

Not to die with regrets like Yu Tian, and even be dissected after death.

Not like the Green Star civilization, where 99.9% of the population is killed, and the remaining population is relocated to a dead star with no development potential, only to have to say thank you to others.

This is not the future he wants.

"Huu~"

Watching Adrian sign his name on the surrender document, Yang Dian let out a long sigh.

The Nuo Ling Civilization can use the star seas as frames and star Systems as stations to pave a Universe-level 'interstellar orbital highway'.

What about Lao Bai?

Still holed up in the culture tank playing with his brain.

He hasn't even fully perfected the spatial jump System for the star destroyer.

I have to put the pressure on him~

While pondering how to pressure Lao Bai to unleash more potential, Yang Dian, who had been keeping a portion of his focus on Qi Ling, noticed that this interstellar orbital engineer from the Nuo Ling Civilization had a fluctuation in his emotions after receiving the surrender document.

It wasn't the kind of emotion like 'mission accomplished, now I can relax'.

It was more like 'as expected, everything is exactly as I thought,' a feeling of having everything under control.

Frowning, Yang Dian looked at the surrender document again and suddenly noticed rows of small text on the cover.

Number of viewers: [8]

Viewers: Nuo Ling Civilization Far Star Expeditionary Legion, 79th Legion Deputy Commander -- Yi Renshi;

Nuo Ling Civilization Interstellar Orbital Group President -- Qi Qing;

Star Rail Group subsidiary 7th Construction Bureau Director -- Qi Feng;

7th Construction Bureau Chief Engineer -- Qi Feng;

7th Construction Bureau 3rd Battalion Commander -- Qi Le;

7th Construction Bureau 3rd Battalion, 1st Squad Engineer -- Qi Ling;

Green Star Civilization Archon -- Adrian;

Unknown Civilization -- Unknown [To be explored]

Seeing the characters on the last line, Yang Dian's pupils constricted sharply.

Just by taking a look, I'm being recorded?

As soon as the sound of surprise left his lips, Yang Dian saw Qi Ling tap on the three characters [To be explored].

In the nether, a mysterious aura rose from the surrender document in Qi Ling's hand, passed through 77 layers of spatial folds, and swept directly towards Yang Dian.

The moment he sensed that aura, a thought arose in Yang Dian's heart.

Can't dodge, can't avoid, can only endure?

As the thought arose, he was suddenly struck by inspiration and flicked a trace of Fate Power onto that inexplicable aura.

"Hum~"

After a sound like a Soul buzzing, or perhaps just tinnitus, rang out, the Fate Power and that inexplicable aura dissipated simultaneously.

At the same time, the characters on the eighth line of the surrender document cover, [Unknown Civilization -- Unknown [To be explored]], began to blur.

A moment later, it turned into the characters [Encountered Karma Law attack collision, stop exploration].

Then, these newly appeared characters blurred again, and finally turned into the two characters [Unknown].

Yang Dian could feel that Qi Ling, who was staring at the [Unknown] characters on the cover, was somewhat afraid.

It seemed he was afraid of the meaning represented by [Unknown].

So even within the Nuo Ling Civilization, the power of fate, or rather the Law of Karma, is a very terrifying thing?

That makes sense.

How could fate not be terrifying?

A butterfly in the east flaps its wings a little more, causing a tornado to blow in the west.

This is the influence of fate.

Subtle, yet omnipresent.

If one is truly targeted by a terrifying existence that masters fate, can it end well?

Not wanting to die, Qi Ling sank into silence for a while, then wiped the cover of the book.

The number of viewers jumped back from [8] to [7].

The two characters [Unknown] disappeared at the same time.

The always arrogant Qi Ling even saluted the Void Realm, then without saying anything, extended a finger and tapped his own brow.

Yang Dian could sense a wisp of Soul escaping from his mind.

He voluntarily gave up this part of his memory?

No, this surrender document is about the same as a tender document, right?

Can this thing be changed so casually?

Hearing Yang Dian's surprised voice, Zero, who had been faithfully recording everything Yang Dian saw and heard, suddenly spoke:

Commander, although Qi Ling is suspected to be a middle-level figure in a super-grade civilization, he is still a sentient being.

Being a sentient being, he will have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and possess his own emotions.

When a sentient being is not loyal enough to their civilization, the first thing they think of will only be themselves.

Take Qi Ling, for example.

He feels that you, who wield the Law of Karma, are hiding your own existence, surely for some purpose, and do not want your purpose to be known by others.

He is worried that his careless peeping just now triggered your ill will, causing you to take action against him.

So he chose to erase a part of his Soul memory, indicating that he has no malice towards you.

Even if this behavior would harm the civilization itself.

Speaking of this, Zero analyzed the Nuo Ling Civilization simply based on the existing information:

The Nuo Ling Civilization is 99% likely to be one of the nine super civilizations of the Human Race Alliance, possessing extremely advanced technology, but with average individual strength.

Like Qi Ling, suspected to be a middle-level figure of the Nuo Ling Civilization, but his individual strength is only around the Star Dome Realm.

The Nuo Ling Civilization has existed for an unknown amount of time, and the power of families and clans may be extremely inflated.

Like the Interstellar Orbital Group of the Nuo Ling Civilization.

From the Interstellar Orbital Group President Qi Qing at the beginning, to the 7th Construction Bureau 3rd Battalion, 1st Squad Engineer Qi Ling at the end, all are surnamed Qi.

It is temporarily impossible to determine whether the main personnel of this group all belong to the 'Qi Family' or 'Qi Clan'.

Or if one must change their surname to 'Qi' to enter this group.

But without a doubt, this uniform 'Qi' character from top to bottom is the best proof of forming cliques.

Yang Dian nodded, agreeing with Zero's statement.

When he saw that string of 'Qi's, he was guessing that for these ancient and powerful civilizations, perhaps the 'Legacy' is far more 'orderly' than he imagined.

Celestial Dragons are Celestial Dragons for life.

Country bumpkins are country bumpkins for life.

Those who can break free from the barriers are always in the minority.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Dian.

No matter how tightly the Nuo Ling Civilization locks its class System, it has nothing to do with him.

Perhaps when his strength is sufficient in the future, he will help the bottom layer of the Nuo Ling Civilization shout: "Are kings, nobles, generals, and ministers born with noble blood?"

But now?

Watching the Green Star people on the plaza being sucked into the spaceship in an instant, Yang Dian turned and left.

With this time, it's better to go back and find Yu Tian, and ask him what it tastes like to be insta-killed...
