Chapter 36: Qualifications of a Predator
In God-Given Year 2, the entire Earth Star completely transformed into a Level 7 planet. During this period, all members of the Human Race completed their gene evolution. As long as they continuously improve their own genes, their offspring's genes will be very powerful from birth.
Thanks to the gene transformation, the Human Race now has sufficient resistance to the gravity, which is many times stronger than before.
After the Earth Star was promoted to a Level 7 planet, the Human Race moved down from Sky City. The surface area of the Earth Star is now very vast.
Even if the population explodes to one hundred billion in the future, this Earth Star can accommodate them, with room to spare.
The Human Race began building new homes. One after another, science fiction buildings rose from the surface of the Earth Star.
In God-Given Year 4, everything on Earth Star was on the right track, and the Human Race once again invested their energy into Technology development.
Seeing everything on the right track, Jiang Fan nodded in satisfaction. He didn't stay on the Earth Star any longer and returned directly to the outside world.
Outside world.
"Phew, accelerating for just a few years of time now costs as many Creation Points as accelerating for hundreds of years before. Luckily, I have a talent, and coupled with the rapid development of the Human Race, the feedback in Creation Points is also very high."
Jiang Fan sighed with emotion.
Now that some minor matters have been dealt with, it's time to figure out how the qualification for the Plunder War works.
Three days passed in a flash of time.
"So that's how it is. Every so often, I'll receive a rule prompt asking if I want to participate in the war."
Jiang Fan finally understood all the rules over the past few days.
Simply put, all Star Lords' information in this World is controlled by the rules, and everything about the Star Lords' development is very clear.
Once some Star Lords trigger civilization leaps, they will face the rules' test, testing whether they have the qualification for promotion. Weak civilizations have no need to exist.
'Weak' here refers to the potential for civilization development. The rules will not impose overly difficult tests; otherwise, it wouldn't be a test but a death calamity.
For civilizations below Level 1, when a Star Lord's civilization encounters the civilization leap rule, disaster will descend.
And these disasters are all natural disasters or acts of God, not considered artificial forces. If you survive, everything is fine, and your civilization is considered to have value and good potential.
Once a civilization reaches Level 1, the rules will again impose a test, and the difficulty of this test is greatly increased, with the minimum being S-rank.
And the test is a civilization invasion war. Jiang Fan's SS-rank difficulty was elevated because the disaster was stacked with the Level 1 civilization promotion assessment.
With the increase in difficulty, the opponents faced are survivors who have experienced several World civilization Plunder Wars.
For S-rank, both sides are novices, experiencing the Plunder War for the first time. In this situation, the power gap between the two Star Lords won't be too large, and they can both survive without unexpected circumstances.
As long as you survive the first Plunder War, you gain qualification for the Plunder War, meaning you can choose whether to participate in the future!
That's right, the Plunder War seems very cruel, but for some Star Lords whose civilization development has hit a bottleneck, it can be considered an opportunity.
By continuously Plundering the civilizations of others' Worlds, one can gain unexpected rewards. More importantly, after the Plunder War ends, the rules will provide a rating and give rewards.
This is also what Star Lords value most. Of course, opportunity and crisis coexist. Rewards are not easy to obtain; every Plunder War is a life-and-death struggle, betting on the future of civilization. The strong survive, the weak perish; survival of the fittest is fully embodied.
Once you've passed the Level 1 civilization test and the novice period, future Plunder Wars will have random difficulty. The civilization you encounter might be weaker than yours, or it could be much stronger.
Of course, there's also a special situation, just like Jiang Fan's time, where the difficulty is stacked!
Those who trigger a stacked difficulty assessment increase for the first time upon reaching Level 1 civilization can, having passed the novice period, apply to go to war. After receiving permission from the rules, they will connect to a World and initiate a Plunder War!
"Heh heh, it's getting more and more interesting..."
Jiang Fan chuckled. This rule was very helpful to him. After killing and Plundering Ji Cheng's talent, he wanted to go and Plunder the talents of other Star Lords.
As for whether he'd encounter Star Lords without talent? Don't be kidding. Star Lords who can develop their civilization to Level 1 wouldn't possibly be without talent, because they couldn't develop it at all otherwise.
He himself was an example before. Even if there were exceptions, they would die in the first Plunder War, and he wouldn't encounter them.
Jiang Fan was lost in thought, wondering if it would be better to develop for a while or directly initiate a Plunder War.
His civilization level is currently 1.5. When Technology progresses a bit more, the Plunder War will be easier.
"Forget it, no need to rush. Seek victory steadily. The Human Race is still just starting gene Cultivate. I'll wait until some high-level combat power emerges."
Jiang Fan still felt it was better to wait for a while.
Inside the Earth Star.
"Boom!"
Zhuo Yuanming opened his cloudy eyes, his appearance rapidly changing, returning from a middle-aged state to a youthful state. His skin was delicate and smooth, his cloudy eyes became bright, and his majesty was contained.
"Phew... Thank you for the Lord's grace."
Zhuo Yuanming prayed and stood up. Just now he broke the first gene lock, causing a qualitative leap in his lifespan. Judging by his vitality alone, he could live for several thousand years, which was truly terrifying.
This also infinitely elevated his faith in Jiang Fan.
"So this is the gene lock. That feeling just now was really uncomfortable. The muddled chains locked off the path ahead. If it weren't for my faith in the Lord, wanting to always accompany Him and fight for Him, I might not have broken through that barrier."
Zhuo Yuanming clenched his fists tightly. A special energy appeared in his hand. Now, according to the gene Cultivate system, he is considered a First Order Evolver.
"High Priest... the higher-ups and others are requesting your presence at a meeting. They say there's something to announce..."
A voice came from outside the door.
"Mm..."
Zhuo Yuanming responded and then pushed the door open and walked out.
The person outside was startled when he saw a young man he didn't recognize walk out of the room.
"You... who are you? Why are you in the High Priest's room!"
This person was somewhat panicked, fearing that the High Priest had met with misfortune, because he had been guarding the High Priest's room and hadn't seen anyone enter at all.
"It's me... I just had a breakthrough, and my appearance has changed slightly. Quickly take me to the meeting."
Zhuo Yuanming said calmly, then took out the scepter and activated it to emit light.
Seeing this scene, the latter finally breathed a sigh of relief. This scepter was created by their Lord. Without the Lord's approval, even if others obtained it, they couldn't use it. So, seeing the young man in front of him able to activate the scepter, he believed Zhuo Yuanming's identity.
"My apologies, High Priest. I was short-sighted. Please forgive me."
"It's fine. Lead the way quickly."
Zhuo Yuanming waved his hand.
"Yes, please follow me. You've been in seclusion for quite some time this time, and many changes have occurred outside. Now there's a new project that requires you to finalize the decision. This meeting is being held for you to decide whether to initiate it..."
Zhuo Yuanming listened silently. Ever since Jiang Fan passed down the Gene Law, led them in Cultivate personally for a few years, and then left, he also went into seclusion.
