Chapter 70 Physical Warfare
Since the Super God Academy settled on Planet Melo, the Divine River Technology it brought has acted like a technological key, unlocking the previously backward door of the Angel Civilization and allowing it to develop rapidly.
Kilan brought more than just a few devices. He Xi, referencing the design of the celestial computer, multiplied the computing power of the space-based computing cluster several times over. The super-gene compilation technology significantly improved the upgrade efficiency of the second-generation divine body.
The optimized dark energy circuitry made the entire defense system of the Merlo Heavenly Court much smoother. Keisha and He Xi absorbed and integrated all these technologies into the Angel Civilization's system, accelerating the implementation of the Angel Civilization's just order.
The influence of the Celestial Court of Merlo began to radiate outwards from the planet Merlo. Smaller civilizations in the surrounding areas began to seek refuge and submit to its rule.
Some chose to join voluntarily, while others joined after being "visited" by the angel fleet and witnessing the power of the angel civilization.
Keisha's expansion was not an invasion, but an export of order. The just order created by Keisha required all civilizations that had submitted to her to abandon internal wars, the plunder of lower-level civilizations, and the research into divine power.
In exchange, the angels will provide them with protection, necessary technical support, and trade channels for mutual exchange.
Most of the weaker civilizations readily accepted the new order of the angels. Those more powerful civilizations, however, after witnessing the might of the second-generation angel fleet, were forced to accept it as well.
This expansion lasted for nearly a century.
Over the course of a century, the angelic fleet's journey extended outwards from the planet Melo, traversing countless star systems. Wherever they arrived, Keisha would first send an envoy to greet them with courtesy, read out explanations of the principles of justice and order, and invite them to join her.
If the other party refuses, the envoy will leave his contact information and tell them, "You can take your time to think it over. If you've made up your mind, or if the country is in danger, you can contact us."
If the messenger is attacked by unreasonable people, Keisha will send Liang Bing to talk to them. Liang Bing's method is relatively simple: first, all those involved in the attack on the messenger will be put on trial, and then they will sit down and talk slowly.
This expansion only encountered real resistance when it reached the southern part of the universe.
This is a gathering place for beast-like civilizations. Giant wolf tribes, gluttonous tribes, and various other unnamed beast-like races live scattered across a planet in the southern part of the universe. They do not have a unified government, but rather fight amongst themselves in tribes, frantically expanding northward in pursuit of resources and living space.
When Keisha's messenger arrived, he went to negotiate. However, he was killed on the spot before he could even see the opposing leader.
After reporting the situation here to Keisha.
Keisha keenly sensed that this civilization was not simple and did not choose to immediately resort to force. Instead, she gathered detailed intelligence from the southern part of the universe and discovered that this was not just a problem of beast-like civilizations.
Deep in the southern universe, traces of a civilization called the Triangular Sphere Civilization are faintly visible. The Triangular Spheres' evolutionary path is completely different from that of the Divine River Sphere; they do not rely on complex technological equipment and do not follow the physical laws established by the Divine River Sphere Civilization.
The Triangulum enhances its power through brain development; the higher the development level, the stronger its ability to manipulate the material world.
On this day, Keisha convened a military meeting to address the issues in the southern part of the universe. Zhao Chen also attended the meeting.
At the meeting, Keisha spoke first: "Gentlemen! The beast civilization is expanding wildly northward, and we must stop them."
"The Triangular Civilization's brain development is unscientific," He Xi began at the meeting. "Their evolutionary speed far surpasses that of any known civilization. If we don't intervene, tens of thousands of years from now, the Triangular Civilization may replace the Divine River Civilization in the universe."
Keisha looked at her. "So what are you trying to say?"
"I would say that we should initiate the war first."
She then tapped a few times on the dark communication interface, bringing up a distribution map of the triangular and beast-like entities. The two forces were intertwined in the southern part of the universe; although they lacked a unified command structure, they would likely unite should war break out.
"Although the triangular bodies and the theropods are two different evolutionary paths," He Xi analyzed, "they have one thing in common—aggression and expansion. When faced with a powerful external enemy, they may unite."
Keisha looked at the star map, remained silent for a long time, and then looked at Zhao Chen. "What do you mean?"
What I mean is, we can fight, but we can't fight alone. Kieran is still on Melo, right? He has a lot of connections; we can explain the pros and cons to him and have him form an alliance, which we can then join.
Zhao Chen knew that Kiran would most likely agree. Based on the events of his previous life, it was the Triangle Forms and the Beast Form Civilization that, due to resource scarcity and a lack of suitable living conditions, frantically expanded their power outwards, becoming unstoppable. This led to the Super God Academy, in alliance with the Angel Civilization and other forces, launching the First Form War. They decisively defeated the Triangle Forms and established the God River Forms' dominant position in the universe.
"What if Principal Najilan disagrees?" Liang Bing asked.
He'll agree. If he doesn't, we'll just wait and see how the triangular and beastly forms develop, and see who gets anxious first. Zhao Chen said indifferently.
How could you do this? How can this be fair to the forces in the south that have just joined us? Keisha said with dissatisfaction.
"But there's no other way; the opponent is too powerful. How many of us would die if we didn't do this?" Zhao Chen explained.
"Alright, I'll discuss this with Principal Kieran." Keisha made her final decision.
As Zhao Chen expected, Kieran eventually agreed. He contacted the Deno and other Divine River civilizations, and formed the Divine River Alliance with the angels.
The Divine River Alliance, centered on the Angel Civilization, unites forces such as the Super God Academy and the Deno Civilization, along with the Divine River Civilization, which has recently submitted to Keisha.
Keisha served as the overall commander, Liang Bing led the vanguard, and He Xi was responsible for technical support and logistical support. Zhao Chen, at Keisha's insistence, stayed by her side to protect the rear. Kiran did not participate in this battle, but the resources of the Super God Academy would be fully open to the Alliance.
Although the Beast and Triangular Allied Forces lack a unified command structure, their numbers are overwhelming. The individual warriors of the Beast civilization are formidable, while the Triangular civilization's advanced brain development allows them to display almost bizarre combat methods on the battlefield.
They do not rely on any weapons; they manipulate matter directly with their thoughts.
This war lasted for hundreds of years.
Liang Bing's troops played a crucial role in the early stages of the war. She led a lone elite force deep behind enemy lines, cutting off the Beastman civilization's supply lines and destroying a key node in the Triangular Spheres. Her flexible and unpredictable nature often caught the Beastman Alliance off guard.
He Xi's technical support was equally indispensable. The space-based computing cluster operated at full capacity during the war, providing real-time battlefield data analysis for frontline combat troops.
The new dark energy shields also greatly increase the survivability of the Angel Fleet on the battlefield.
Ruoning also gradually distinguished herself in this war. Her swordsmanship was exquisite, and in several direct confrontations with the beast-body civilization, she killed the second-generation beast-body leaders multiple times.
His reputation began to spread rapidly among both sides, and he became the sharpest weapon in Keisha's hands.
Keisha herself still rarely took to the field. She remained behind the scenes, overseeing the overall situation and ensuring that the banner of justice and order was planted in every reclaimed star system. As the war progressed to its final stages, Keisha's strategic focus gradually shifted from military strikes to the export of order.
For every star system they conquered, the Allied fleet would leave an outpost to help establish a just and orderly administrative system and implant the culture of the Divine River Civilization into the occupied territory.
The beast-body civilization was the first to succumb to the fierce attacks and harassment of the allied forces, suffering heavy losses and forced to retreat to the rear. Gradually, the triangular civilization also began to struggle alone, retreating to the edge of the southern universe, no longer posing a threat.
Ultimately, the Divine River Alliance emerged victorious in this war of physical forms. Keisha termed this war the Holy War, using it to proclaim justice and order. The Angelic Civilization gradually became the dominant force in the known universe, and justice and order, over time, slowly spread to every corner of the known universe.
After the war ended, Keisha held a victory celebration in the main hall of the Heavenly Court of Merlo.
Kieran brought Karl specifically to congratulate Keisha. Kieran's white hair and beard stood out among the blond crowd in the hall. His gaze was calm and unwavering, revealing no emotion. Karl stood behind him, a faint smile always playing on his young and handsome face.
"Queen Keisha, I have to congratulate you." Kieran's voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the entire hall could hear it.
Keisha sat regally on her throne, gazing at him with her golden eyes. "The Super God Academy and Principal Kieran have both made invaluable contributions to this war, and they have also provided tremendous assistance to Planet Melo in the past. From now on, whatever needs the Super God Academy may have, please feel free to make them, and I will consider fulfilling them."
Kieran bowed slightly. "Thank you, Queen Keisha."
Karl's gaze pierced through the hall and landed on Zhao Chen. No one knew what he was thinking.
After the celebration party, Keisha returned to her chambers. Zhao Chen was sitting on the windowsill, gazing at the starry sky outside.
"You think you're so fast?" Keisha said with some dissatisfaction.
"It's so boring in the main hall, and there's no one to talk to," Zhao Chen complained.
"Who told you to do that? And you still think you're right?" Keisha said with a hint of schadenfreude.
It's been almost two hundred years, what can I do if you still won't let it go? It's one thing for others, but even you are wary of me, and you won't let me participate in this battle.
"I did that to prevent you from making the same mistake again," Keisha emphasized.
What mistakes I've made? Power itself is neither inherently evil nor righteous; it depends on who's using it. If I use evil power but spend my entire life doing good, can you call me evil?
Hmph, what good deeds have you done? Tell me. And don't tell me again that you used this power to end the war and prevent more people from dying—I'm sick and tired of hearing that.
I... I have nothing to say. By the way, I'm about to break through; can I go to the starry sky to do so? Zhao Chen's face was full of anticipation.
"No way! And why are you breaking through again? Did you sneak out?" Keisha looked suspicious.
"I haven't made a breakthrough in ages, okay? You see me every day, how am I supposed to sneak away?" Zhao Chen said, his face full of melancholy.
"Alright, let's break through on Melos Star. It'll be slower, but it'll be safer." Keisha walked to the window, leaned on Zhao Chen's shoulder, and changed the subject. "Liang Bing seems a bit off lately."
"What's wrong?" Zhao Chen asked.
"She spends all her time at the Super God Academy now, researching void theory with Karl. I asked her what exactly they're researching, but she wouldn't tell me," Keisha said softly. "I find that stuff disgusting."
"I'll come over and check on you after I finish my breakthrough," Zhao Chen comforted him.
Keisha closed her eyes and nodded, saying nothing more.
After the celebration banquet, life seemed to return to normal. Liang Bing sat in the research lab of the Super God Academy, staring at the void theory data on the dark communication interface, her eyes holding a light that Zhao Chen had never seen before.
He Xi returned to her laboratory to continue researching upgrade plans for the astronomical computer.
Zhao Chen did not participate in the knowledge competition. Instead, he sat on the high platform of the palace, focusing on meditation and cultivation, striving to break through as soon as possible.
