Chapter 328: Civilization Incubator
The overlapping space in the pentahedron is a very experimental world, built by the Protoss to solve the diversity of civilizations, and in the ancient centuries more than 200 million years ago, when the Protoss and the Yu Clan dominated the galaxy and stood side by side, they also faced the shackles of civilization diversity.
There are two ways to solve the problem, one is outward and the other is inward. From the beginning of entering the fifth-level civilization, the Yu clan and the god clan have taken different ways.
The Yu tribe chose to explore outward, and they continuously sent out exploration teams composed of volunteers to the extragalactic galaxy to find more civilizations in the new river system. The entire process lasted from level 5 to level 6 until it disappeared.
During this period, the Yu clan sent countless exploration teams, but there were no results, and none of the exploration teams sent out were heard from, and it was not known whether they had disappeared into the vast universe, or because they were too far away to pass on the information.
Sending the exploration team into the Silver Heart is another attempt made by the Yu Clan after entering the sixth-level civilization, trying to see if they can travel across the river system faster through the Silver Heart.
And the Protoss chose the inward way, and the civilization was incubated.
Stocking a variety of creatures in the overlapping space of the pentahedron, allowing them to develop freely, and then picking a direction that has never been tried by civilization before, and focusing on cultivation.
Relying on this method, the Protoss has cultivated many meaningful civilization samples, which have played an immeasurable role in this evolutionary process from the fifth to the sixth level.
And the results produced by this method, not only did the Protoss not cherish themselves, but generously shared them with all civilizations.
Of course. In fact, there is only the Yu clan that needs to be shared, and only the Yu clan has reached the level of knowing the diversity of civilizations. Arguably. The reason why the Yu clan was able to successfully enter the sixth-level civilization was inseparable from the help of the Protoss.
These results are not only shared. The Protoss will even transfer some samples of civilization with cultivation significance from the overlapping space to the large universe, allowing them to develop freely in the universe. It can be said that most of the civilizations in the galaxy today are actually inextricably linked to the Protoss, and some are even directly created by the Protoss.
From the perspective of interests, the reason why the Protoss is doing this is actually not selfless, and the entire galaxy is actually equivalent to their civilization cultivation. No matter how these civilizations develop, they will eventually become part of the civilization sample.
But in any case, it was the Protoss who created most of the civilizations in the galaxy, and it was the Protoss that laid a solid foundation for the colorful civilizations of the entire galaxy more than 200 million years ago.
Illusion is an undead creature born in overlapping space and conceived by the soul of a carbon-based creature.
In the world where he was born, the undead developed advanced civilizations. They ruled the whole world. Enslave all living beings, use them as a source of soul and body, and make the undead the ruling and aristocratic classes.
They built a magic web and allowed an energy called magic to spread throughout the world. Thus developed an energy civilization called magic. They invented alchemy, invented magic crystals that can be recharged repeatedly, and relied on both basic technologies. A powerful undead empire has developed.
But after the undead empire entered the second-level civilization, it was because of congenital defects. Collapsed with a bang.
The first flaw is that the Void does not have a magic web. No magical elements existed, which led to the stagnation of development after the undead left the planet's surface.
The second flaw is that the undead live too long.
In the illusory world, becoming an undead creature is a way to completely change one's fate, and from an enslaved creature directly to an immortal and powerful life, it is equivalent to becoming a god. This is the change that all enslaved races of life yearn for.
However, the difficulty of becoming an undead creature is very high, and they are all selected among thousands of people, and those who are selected are all the elites of each life species.
Although the percentage is small, the turnover rate is too low for the undead to die. Only in but not out, accumulated over time, the number is also very considerable.
In a period of rapid development of civilization, this kind of problem will not be very prominent, but once the development is stagnant, the problems that have accumulated for a long time will erupt together. There were too many undead creatures in the ruling class, and they had appropriated a lot of resources, making it difficult for the enslaved living races to survive, so the war broke out.
The result of the war was undoubtedly the victory of the undead, but it was also the beginning of the fall of the undead empire, which led to the mass death of the living race, and finally the complete extinction, leaving the whole world with only the undead remaining.
Immortal undead creatures, after a long period of time, will easily become bored with the world. After all, repeating the same life day by day, doing the same things, and seeing the same scenery can be insisted on for ten or twenty years, but what about a hundred years? What about a thousand years?
When these undead creatures spent a long time, and at the same time there was no new blood infusion, the entire undead empire fell into a dead silence unconsciously. Development has come to a standstill, civilization has come to a standstill, population has come to a standstill, everything has come to a standstill.
This made the undead empire enter a vicious circle, because there was no change, many undead creatures slept for a while, and woke up to find that the previous scenery was still the same as before, and the former neighbors were still the same as before, so more and more undead creatures were sleeping longer and longer, and more and more undead creatures were more and more reluctant to wake up.
The entire immortal empire died out unconsciously.
But all of this has little to do with fantasy.
Phantom was a succubus before his death, and he was born good at illusion and mental attacks, and after becoming an undead creature, he focused on developing his ability in this area, becoming the first illusion in the undead empire at that time, and his illusion has reached the point of 'making a fake come true'.
He is able to construct an almost real world in the illusion, and then envelop a group of people in it, allowing them to grow, learn, and live in the world of illusion.
He has built a world free of the undead, allowing a group of living races to grow up in illusion from an early age, and losing to their notion that the undead are evil. When he undone the illusion, the liferacing, believing that they had crossed over, launched an attack on the undead present.
This ability of his has brought him to the attention of the supreme creator in the underworld.
What did the Protoss build this world for? In order to cultivate more civilization samples.
But the development of every civilization is slow, difficult, and full of uncertainties, and a meteorite falls down, and a very special civilization may be destroyed in this way.
Although in the overlapping space, the Protoss has controlled these devastating accidents, but isn't the rebirth after the destruction an important part of giving birth to a special civilization?
Moreover, the cultivation of a large number of civilizations is very resource-intensive.
The Protoss has entered the sixth level and has mastered an endless stream of dark elements, which can easily support the development of dozens of civilizations together. But what if there are hundreds of civilizations? Or even thousands, tens of thousands?
If you want to support a civilization sample of this scale, the Protoss can't do it.
But what good would it do if you put it all in an illusion?
First of all, energy consumption will be drastically reduced, and not by one or two percent, but to a level that may be only one hundredth, or even one thousandth. In the past, only a few hundred civilizations could be cultivated, but now tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands can be cultivated.
What the Protoss needs is only a sample of civilization, not that they need these civilizations, so it makes no difference whether civilization exists or not.
Secondly, the time rate can be adjusted, the original one-to-one time, can now be adjusted to one-to-ten, one-to-hundred, one-to-thousand. A civilization that would have taken millions of years to evolve may only take a few thousand years in the illusion.
These two points alone were enough to greatly increase the value of the illusion, far beyond the entire immortal civilization he was born into, so he was lifted out of the immortal world by the Protoss, and began to build an illusory civilization incubator around him.
And as its core, Illusion has also continued to learn in the process, from an indigenous person who only understands illusions and spells, to an incubator master with sixth-level civilization knowledge, a deep understanding of the nature of the universe, and the interpretation of most civilization materials. (To be continued......)
