CHAPTER 245: CHAPTER 163: THE LIFE OF SAGE SAINT SHEN SHI

"A C9 Level Civilization-level Energy Device!?" The Collector finally couldn’t hold back anymore and spoke, "And it’s a device produced by the Three-Day Civilization? That Three-Day Civilization that advanced to a B-level through Primordial Energy Technology?"

The incredulous shock he felt burst forth alongside the glow of Primordial Energy Manifestation!

It’s important to know that during this time, he has been investigating this type of civilization-level energy device in Gus Land.

He deeply understands how exorbitant its price is.

It’s completely not on the same level as devices like warships.

Merely relying on conventional resources for trade, given the current resource levels of human civilization, even after a thousand years of hard work, they still couldn’t exchange for a C9-level civilization-level energy device.

Let alone one produced by the Three-Day Civilization!

This civilization is renowned throughout the Mude System, even hailed as the most advanced B-level civilization in Primordial Energy Technology below an A-level Civilization!

The civilization-level energy devices it produces, even at the lowest level, are treasures for all C-level civilizations!

Paired with a Master of Primordial Energy, it can cause the defensive power of the entire civilization to surge instantly!

"This is indeed a civilization energy device, and the level is indeed incredibly high!" Gong Chu also stared intently at the device ahead.

Unlike Shen Shi initially, he saw at a glance the countless "roots" on it and understood its essence.

These roots turned out to be manifestations of primordial energy!

Not merely simple information manifestations, but actual primordial energy manifested in the material world, which should only exist in consciousness.

This level could directly shatter the understanding of primordial energy for civilizations with relatively shallow development in this technology!

Even for current human civilization, it’s somewhat the same.

Solely based on their current understanding, it’s challenging to evaluate the level of this device before them.

The C9 designation wasn’t given by humans themselves!

"The manual states that this device works best when placed on the Mother Star." The Collector quickly and frantically flipped through the manual, "Its coverage range is up to seventy-eight light-years! Doesn’t this mean it can directly cover all nearby nodes? Our Star System Fortress only has a range of three light-years."

"Its function is far beyond this." Gong Chu was completely bent over, staring at this beautiful Crystal Tree with an increasingly excited tone, "It can instantly link all individuals within its range of civilization and maintain a long-term consciousness link, equivalent to a delay-free communication network! People can even train primordial energy through it... It’s not just a defensive device, but also a powerful communication device and a strong primordial energy technology development device!"

You must know, the civilization-level energy device humans painstakingly designed can barely cover a range of 0.01 light-years, and everyone has to wear cumbersome devices, staying completely still to transmit their primordial energy to Gong Chu, the Master of Primordial Energy, causing considerable loss in the process.

Originally, the Human Federation planned to gather the most skilled individuals in primordial energy mastery from the entire civilization around the Mother Star to bolster the battlefield for Gong Chu.

But this device ahead is entirely different!

Not only can it communicate with all humans within the Solar System efficiently, but it can also gather and utilize the power of all humanity, playing a crucial role in wartime communication and accelerating the overall development of humanity’s primordial energy technology!

This is incredibly important for human civilization at this moment!

"Clan Leader..." The Collector looked at Shen Shi again at the end, unable to help but speak, the primordial energy within him rolling like a tidal wave, "How did you acquire this device?"

"Are you satisfied?" Shen Shi asked with a smile.

"This isn’t about satisfaction, it’s..." The once elegant Collector couldn’t even find the words.

If before, human civilization had hopes and chances to grasp the last straw to overcome the crisis.

Now, it’s turned that straw into a lifeline, wrapped repeatedly around human civilization.

Even cutting them personally might not sever it!

At least, just relying on the Daike Civilization’s currently deployed legions outside the civilization wouldn’t be enough to defeat humanity. With some concealment and tactical feigning of weakness, relying solely on this device, it might ensure human civilization remains unharmed for at least three to four hundred years!

What happens after that?

If after three to four hundred years, humanity still relies solely on this device, then Gong Chu, the Collector, and even all human leadership should apologize to humanity with their lives!

At this moment.

Gong Chu suddenly approached Shen Shi and knelt down on one knee.

"Clan Leader." He said with utmost gravity, "Gong Chu wishes to change the affiliation mark to absolute obedience mark!"

The turmoil in his heart wasn’t less than the Collector’s. In fact, it was even stronger.

After all, what the Collector truly cares about is cultural heritage.

Gong Chu, however, truly cares about the entire human civilization!

Being able to say such words means Gong Chu has already regarded Shen Shi as the true future of human civilization! Even the hope of everything for civilization!
