For a cosmic-level civilization, just the living consumption of citizens, even if it is all added up to food, clothing, housing, transportation, etc., it is actually nothing at all.

What's more, the vast majority of the resources consumed by civilian products can be recycled, and in the final analysis, what is consumed is just some energy, which is not ranked among the top ten in the various expenditures of cosmic civilizations, and just the rational and efficient use of resources within the planet has been able to meet a large part of the needs of the citizens of cosmic civilization.

The main expenditure of resource consumption in the true sense of the cosmic civilization is actually the research and exploration in various disciplines, and the construction of the army and defense system in the field of overall security of the civilization, and the expenditure in these aspects is simply thousands of times that of the people.

The living expenses of ordinary people are not even worth the luxury living expenses of those elite who are less than one millionth, and the children of those who have a little status, rights and resources, which one of them does not have a large number of industries in hand, and usually takes a private luxury interstellar cruise ship with his family at every turn, and travels around the starry sky, and the cost of a random interstellar trip is the living consumption expenses of hundreds of thousands of people for a year.

Therefore, in the territory of ancient civilization, the living standard of ordinary people can be improved to a certain extent, which is far from enough to explain the development achievements of ancient civilization over the years.

In just a few hundred years, the ancient civilization started from breaking through the wormhole network blockade of the cosmic-level civilization, and expanded rapidly along the way, and at the beginning it was just a simple expansion of territory, which actually does not mean that the ancient civilization has really stabilized its ruling foundation and digested all the territory it occupies in a real sense.

After all, the purpose of the ancient civilization from the beginning was to finally seize the dominance of the three cosmic-level civilizations, and form a civilization symbiosis ecology with the ancient civilization as the main body and the cosmic-level civilization as the wings.

Because only in this way, relying on the productive forces and combat effectiveness of a powerful scientific and technological civilization, can the ancient civilization be able to firmly establish a foundation in the material universe in a real sense, and not be afraid of any challenge from foreign forces.

Many unique advantages of the soul civilization form unique to the ancient civilization, coupled with the super scientific and technological strength of the cosmic-level scientific and technological civilization, strong production capacity, war ability, etc., these two cooperate with each other, and can definitely play the effect of one plus one is greater than two, forming a super force across the universe.

And if you want to achieve such a goal, it is obviously far from enough to just destroy the original civilization pattern within the cosmic-level civilization and control a large number of large and small forces.

Because the original pattern of the cosmic-level civilization has been broken, if the strength of the cosmic civilization cannot be restored, then the ancient civilization will only work in vain and control an unusable force, and this is undoubtedly not the result that the ancient civilization wants to see.

Therefore, in the past few hundred years, the ancient civilization has not just been subversive and sabotage all the way, acting as a firefighter everywhere to resist the various impacts of the official government of the cosmic civilization on the various forces within the jurisdiction of the ancient civilization, while the ancient civilization is also carrying out various resource integration actions simultaneously, trying its best to enhance its comprehensive strength within its sphere of influence.

After all, after nearly a thousand years of entanglement with the three cosmic-level civilizations, and years of continuous struggle, although the ancient civilizations have achieved good results, tearing the territory of the three cosmic-level civilizations off nearly half of their territory, and bringing great harm to the three cosmic-level civilizations, this is by no means without negative results.

Although the three cosmic-level civilizations have been defeated repeatedly in the hands of the ancient civilizations for nearly a thousand years, they have been defeated and retreated, losing troops all the way to survive, exchanging space for time, tossing for hundreds of years, and doing everything possible to develop practical and effective combat weapons that can target the ancient civilizations, or special drugs that can detect potential signs of the soul virus and cure the soul virus, etc., but these research projects are ultimately too difficult and exceed the research ceiling of the three cosmic-level civilizations, and finally end in failure after consuming a huge amount of time and resources。

However, while these research projects that can draw money from the bottom of the pot have failed, the three cosmic-level civilizations are not completely fruitless and completely fruitless.

At least with the investment of a large amount of resources and energy, the three cosmic-level civilizations have a deeper understanding of the ancient civilizations, and the performance of the soul body detection equipment has also been greatly improved.

Although these bits and pieces cannot make the three cosmic-level civilizations completely turn over, regain lost ground, and wipe out the ancient civilizations or drive them out of the original boundaries of the cosmic-level civilizations, they are enough to completely improve the combat system of the three cosmic-level civilizations.

While relying on the comprehensive defense system of many core star fields to resist the infiltration and invasion of ancient civilizations, the three major cosmic civilizations have also been able to gain a firm foothold under the various attacks of ancient civilizations relying on the new combat system. The war between the three cosmic civilizations and the ancient civilizations thus formed a solid balance.

It is true that it is difficult for the three cosmic-level civilizations to regain the lost ground, but if the ancient civilizations want to further penetrate into the core territory of the cosmic-level civilization, this is simply impossible to do.

Although this new pattern has only been completely solidified in the last hundred years or so, forming a situation in which the ancient civilization and the three cosmic-level civilizations are divided into two worlds, and neither side of the war can easily help the other, but in fact, hundreds of years ago, the ancient civilization had already encountered this result.

Because the ancient civilization is the one who knows itself and knows the other side the most, its predecessor is a cosmic-level civilization, and it has a deep understanding of the priorities and defects of scientific and technological civilization, and after transforming into a soul body civilization, the ancient civilization is also well aware of its own advantages and disadvantages, so hundreds of years ago, the battle between the two parties was still in full swing, and when the victory of the ancient civilization was still rising wave after wave, the high-level of the ancient civilization had a premonition that it was far from enough to completely win the three cosmic-level civilizations only by virtue of some particularities of the ancient civilization itself.

The civilization advantages of the ancient civilization should not be underestimated, but the same point that cannot be ignored is that the ancient civilization is too single after all, even if the soul virus of the ancient civilization can be called an unsolvable killer weapon, but when the three cosmic-level civilizations thoroughly understand the details of the ancient civilization and adapt to the combat style of the ancient civilization, the lethality of the ancient civilization will be greatly weakened after all.

In fact, the three cosmic-level civilizations have been seeking innovation and change in the face of various offensives of the ancient civilizations, although from the perspective of the superficial victory or defeat of the battle, the ancient civilizations have always been winning, and have been eroding the bodies of the three cosmic-level civilizations and controlling the people of the three cosmic-level civilizations, but the three cosmic-level civilizations are also constantly growing.

From the silent infiltration of the ancient civilization at the beginning, the three cosmic-level civilizations were unaware, and then according to various abnormal data, the three cosmic-level civilizations deduced the infiltration range of the ancient civilizations, and then targeted the ancient civilizations. From being enabled by the soul virus by the ancient civilization, killing an entire fleet at every turn, to the three cosmic-level civilizations realizing the existence of the soul virus, and looking for various ways to avoid risks, it can be said that the growth of the three cosmic-level civilizations is very rapid.

On the surface, it seems that the ancient civilization has been winning, but in fact, behind this, the hole cards of the ancient civilization have been opened one after another, in order to win the war against the three cosmic civilizations, the ancient civilization has to repeatedly bring forth the new and adapt to the new war pattern.

In this process, although the ancient civilization has continuously studied the nature of the soul virus, it has gradually developed various innovative application methods for the soul virus, and constantly optimized the combat mode of the ancient civilization, making the ancient civilization more invincible. But it has to be said that this kind of situation where the hole cards are constantly being opened will inevitably lead to the effectiveness of the combat effectiveness of the ancient civilization over time, and this day will always come sooner or later.

At that time, even if the minions of the ancient civilization are still sharp, but the enemy has a complete insight into the combat style and lethality range of the ancient civilization, and has found a way to deal with the ancient civilization.

As the ancient civilization entered a bottleneck period in the research and application of soul viruses, it was no longer possible to continue to efficiently and quickly come up with all kinds of more effective, more deadly, and more large-scale killing methods, and the three major cosmic civilizations really slowly found a way to deal with the ancient civilization.

Although the soldiers of the three cosmic-level civilizations are still afraid of the soul virus of the ancient civilization, they dare not easily set foot in the territory of the ancient civilization, and they are even more powerless to counterattack the ancient civilization, but when facing the attack of the ancient civilization, they used unmanned combat ships, set up long-distance unmanned defense belts, and moved the base of the wormhole defense force to a farther area, leaving no safety blind spots and other countermeasures, which still made the soul virus of the ancient civilization gradually fall into the dilemma of having no heroes.

The situation has developed to this point, it can be said that it has really entered the combat attack area, and the ancient civilization wants to easily expand its sphere of influence, trying to further control the three cosmic-level civilizations in its own hands, which only relies on the strength of the ancient civilization itself, and the possibility is really getting more and more remote.

Fortunately, this trend has been predicted in advance, and the ancient civilization will naturally not do nothing. Watching one's advantages lose step by step is obviously not the style of ancient civilizations.

In fact, the ancient civilization has been preparing for this day for a long time, and after hundreds of years of careful preparation, although the ancient civilization is now facing the defense facilities of the core star fields of the three cosmic-level civilizations, and its own soul virus has the embarrassment that a tiger can't eat, but this does not mean that the ancient civilization is completely helpless!

There are still ways, although compared to borrowing the soul virus to overcome difficulties, the new method seems a bit stupid, but the ancient civilization believes that in the face of this trick, the defense line of the three universe-level civilizations will inevitably fall step by step. Victory will eventually go to the hands of ancient civilizations.

The method of the ancient civilization is very simple, that is, with the help of the advantage of hard power, and the three cosmic-level civilizations will fight for each star field step by step and not give an inch.

The reason why this method was chosen is because for a long time, only this method is the most suitable for the ancient civilization and the most beneficial to the ancient civilization, so the ancient civilization has always chosen the wormhole channel as a breakthrough.

After all, the wormhole channel is a fast corridor linking various star fields, and within the cosmic-level civilization, because of the powerful scientific and technological power of the cosmic-level civilization, this leads to the cosmic-level civilization has an extremely powerful ability to transform the living environment.

Similar to meteorite star seas, various ecological planets are often centrally arranged, and the density between planets is very amazing, which is extremely suitable for the development of civilization. Of course, this is not a natural phenomenon, although the innate conditions of the meteorite star sea are very good, but the reason why such a pattern will be formed in the end is because of the powerful transformation ability of cosmic-level civilization to nature!

Those planets that are suitable for development have been artificially transported together by cosmic-level civilizations with the help of powerful gravitational devices, forming various star fields suitable for development.

Therefore, within cosmic-level civilizations, the distance between star fields and star fields is often very far, often thousands of light years or tens of thousands of light years, and only through wormhole channels can they be quickly linked. If you start sailing from the normal starry sky, this distance is too far even for the regular faster-than-light ships of the cosmic civilization, and it can easily be hundreds or thousands of years away.

Even military warships can easily take years to reach the long distance between star fields. And such a long distance between the star fields has also made the conventional rush combat method have been abandoned by the ancient civilization, because such a battle can not play the strengths of the ancient civilization at all, as the defender of the three cosmic-level civilizations can also deal with it calmly, the final result is probably not as good as attacking the wormhole passage for the ancient civilization.
