Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!-Chapter 516 - 393: The First Affiliated Civilization_2
Chapter 516: Chapter 393: The First Affiliated Civilization_2
“General Tian, after this battle, you should have enough points to exchange for promotion resources,” said a native warrior, dressed in combat attire, beside Tian Chunyan, with undisguised envy. “This is Supreme Level, which in the world I came from would be enough to dominate the entire world. Even now, it would allow one to command hundreds of millions of troops among the ranks of us mercenaries, oversee the conquest of dozens of worlds, and even—truly join a First-level Attached Civilization.”
Indeed, at the Fifth Stage at this moment in the entire Human Civilization System, one could be considered a formidable force.
But all this talk of dominating the world and commanding armies meant nothing.
What truly made this native warrior and the others envious was that last sentence.
Joining a First-level Attached Civilization!
In fact, Tian Chunyan’s achievements over the years were already sufficient for her to join a Second-level Subordinate Civilization of Human Civilization.
That is, a civilization subordinated to a subordinate civilization.
However, one only had one chance to join, and after joining, it would be even more difficult to continue promoting oneself upward.
Therefore, in the absence of a direct opportunity to join Human Civilization, joining a First-level Civilization was the greatest desire of these native warriors.
This meant not only more resources and higher status but, most importantly, the fulfillment of a sense of belonging.
One could say that reaching this step, these natives would truly feel “transcendent” in their hearts.
It was as if they were no longer struggling in the sea of suffering in the Mortal World, but had joined the ranks of the Immortals, from then on, free and at ease.
Even though Tian Chunyan was not arrogant by nature, at this moment, she too showed an expectant smile.
“I’ve been waiting for this day for a very long time,” she said with a smile. “You all have a chance too, everyone has a chance.”
“It’s hard, hard, hard,” another leader at Level 40 shook his head repeatedly, uttering the word ‘hard’ three times.

Indeed, it was very difficult.
Talent, military achievement, loyalty—all three were indispensable.
Besides, one’s ability and fortune, among other factors, were also put to the test.
There were numerous people who had faltered at the last step.
“Which First-level Attached Civilization do you plan to choose?” another person asked, some even looking spirited. “If you ask me, Great Yan Civilization isn’t bad. Although it’s not the strongest among First-level Attached Civilizations, this also means its requirements aren’t as high, and the compensation is quite generous with a substantial number of subsidies. More importantly, the Empress of Great Yan truly is powerful. I’ve seen her on the battlefield once; that scene is unforgettable for life.”
As one of the earliest recruited by Human Civilization, Great Yan Civilization naturally belongs to the First-level Attached Civilizations.
Even though their strength could not keep up with the current pace, Human Civilization had not abandoned them nor relegated them to a Second-level Subordinate status.
On the contrary, they had received considerable support, especially for top-level warriors with Talent.
Thus, the likes of Great Yan Empress, Xi Qing, who herself possesses Golden Legendary Talent, has always been steadily within the first tier of the Human Civilization System under its strong support.
This kind of treatment was not merely out of nostalgia or similar reasons.
More so, it was to increase the cohesion within the Civilization System.
After all, given the growth potential of Human Civilization itself, within the entire system, there weren’t any civilizations that could ensure they could keep up.
Even Contract Spirit Civilization was no exception.
In the foreseeable future, there will inevitably be stronger civilizations with greater potential joining the fold.
Hence, at this moment, the attitude of Human Civilization towards early attached civilizations like Great Yan Civilization or Sky Spirit Civilization was also to reassure these newly joined powerful civilizations.
There was even a certain level of support in the recruitment of natives.
This also made these civilizations a popular choice among many native geniuses.
However, Tian Chunyan’s first choice was not the Great Yan Civilization; her desire ran deeper.
That was one of the most powerful civilizations within the Human Civilization System—the Contract Spirit Civilization!
Indeed, at this moment, the Contract Spirit Civilization had already begun to deeply integrate into the Human Civilization System.
One of the commanders of their Legion was a warrior from the Contract Spirit Civilization.
Although merely a deputy, the main officer position was naturally taken by a strong Human sent to harvest the Weird Demons to the fullest extent and gather points. However, on the battlefield, this warrior from the Contract Spirit Civilization was also incredibly remarkable.
But Tian Chunyan didn’t voice these thoughts, for the challenge was immense. Only, when she occasionally glanced toward the command center, the yearning in her eyes could not be concealed.
For instance, at this moment.
Within the command center, in charge of this Exploration Team, were the twins Zhou Wenxin and Zhou Wenbo.
After eight years, they had transformed from once naive newcomers into powerful warriors who now commanded an army.
At this moment, Zhou Wenbo slightly smiled at the Contract Spirit Civilization’s Main General beside him, “Look, this Tian Chunyan, she is one of the earliest natives to display her Talent. The charm of your civilization is indeed astonishing.”
The Main General of the Contract Spirit Civilization remained silent for a moment, then chuckled, “The General is jesting. It’s only because the Sovereign Civilization does not allow natives to join directly.”
“You see.” Zhou Wenbo shook his head, “So much time has passed, and you still subconsciously want to compare the Contract Spirit Civilization to us.”
…
How could the Main General of the Contract Spirit Civilization not know that they were just a Subordinate Civilization?
But indeed, it was impossible to fully stand in the position of a Subordinate Civilization.
The comparison was subconscious.
Especially when the strength of Human Civilization, apart from that inconceivable Human Emperor, in all other aspects still seemed weaker than their Contract Spirit Civilization.
“Forget it, it doesn’t matter.” Zhou Wenbo waved his hand and spoke again, “We’ve encountered this situation many times before, it’s just not being used to it for the time being, you’ll get used to it sooner or later.”
Yes, even if the current strength of Human Civilization was slightly inferior, the gap was closing at a visibly rapid pace.
Especially now that the Contract Spirit Civilization had already become entirely subordinate.
It’s likely that by the next Trial, the strength of Human Civilization would have completely surpassed them.
Not to mention the distant future, just the present.
The strength of these two siblings had gone from being weaker at the beginning to now, surpassing the one before them by far.
This Main General of the Contract Spirit Civilization knew the implications of Zhou Wenbo’s words all too well, and with a quiet sigh, he acknowledged the helplessness of the situation.
Now, he, along with all the strong warriors of the Contract Spirit Civilization, had nothing left but subconscious comparisons.
Both rationality and reality were clearly dictating the outcome.
Right then, he no further pondered and spoke in a grave tone, “Commander, the scout team at the front has detected some unusual activity. Weird Demons are amassing, and among them, many powerful Weird Demons likely do not belong to this region. I believe we should be vigilant toward this phenomenon.”
“Agreed.” Zhou Wenbo’s expression also became more serious, “What you’re saying, I’ve also noticed. And it’s not just here, in other areas it seems to be the same. There are suspicions above that our expansion has finally touched upon some, or one strong enemy force’s territory.”
Over these years, Human Civilization had been constantly expanding, taking over new regions.
In the process, they had encountered some powerful Weird Demon forces, even some that supposedly possessed entities known as Demon Lords. Yet, even so, these forces uniformly stepped aside in the face of Human Civilization’s expansion.
Among them, some didn’t engage in any reconnaissance actions at all, but upon the first sight of Human Civilization’s invasion, they immediately commenced a large-scale retreat.
