Chapter 181: Chapter 131: Waiting for a Better Warship

"It’s somewhat inferior to the Daike Civilization, but it can still be classified as a C-level Civilization." Shen Shi said.

The Daike Civilization from three thousand years ago was indeed far inferior to the Daike Civilization of three thousand years later.

But it had also been a C-level Civilization for over a millennium.

So Shen Shi’s statement wasn’t wrong.

"A C-level civilization’s fleet?" the Collector asked again.

"No... it’s not yet at the level of confronting an entire civilization, there might only be a few warships." Shen Shi said.

The Collector visibly relaxed.

He had already guessed the deal between Shen Shi and Gong Chu, but seeing Shen Shi not pulling the Dongfeng Corps over, it was apparent that Shen Shi had his concerns.

Although the Shen Clan had retained the heritage of the past Human Civilization, thousands of years of fleeing must have left their power far from strong.

In such a case, the Dongfeng Corps indeed wasn’t suitable to go over.

After all, a weak commander would pose a tremendous risk to the entire corps and to the boss himself.

But if the enemy is indeed the fleet of a C-level Civilization... then currently, only the entire Dongfeng Corps moving over would have any chance of victory.

Since it’s just a few warships...

"If the situation is dire, I have a medium-small immigrant warship for personal use, an upgraded warship of the Wogte, merely for self-protection, no issues with that." the Collector said.

In fact, his ship would face little trouble dealing with an ordinary warship of a typical C-level civilization.

But it also depended on who was piloting it.

And what sort of technology the enemy possessed, especially their mastery of Primordial Energy.

Overall, while using this warship to engage in combat poses considerable risk, escaping should not pose much of an issue, as it was this very warship he used to flee in the first place.

The Curvature Engine, Stealth System, and Teleportation System it carried were all meticulously selected, acquired through black markets, even some underground markets of certain civilizations, and assembled using various other means during his flight.

The Wogte was essentially an emergency warship configured from secondary components obtained during this process.

"For survival then..." Shen Shi slightly furrowed his brows.

He had long guessed that this altered Collector likely had a stronger warship than the Wogte, based on conversations in newly altered memories from the last trade.

But hearing this, it seemed that even so, it was not at a level that could certainly defeat a Daike warship.

Even though he knew that the Collector was surely using cautious terms.

However, he must also be cautious, let’s not forget, there’s also the presence of the World Convergence.

Shen Shi had now mostly figured out that to deal with such phenomena as World Convergence, he must employ an absolute strategy that allows no risks, as the World Convergence is merely a broad trend. If you lower the probability to one percent, it might occur, but if you reduce it to a thousandth, a ten-thousandth, it would surpass the influence range of World Convergence.

Like that Worren warrior.

Erasing him from history resulted in no second or third appearance.

So Shen Shi pondered for a while and asked, "In the Gus Land, can you acquire better warships, and would that put pressure on your plans?"

If it were before, he might only have this warship, but now, with the emergence of Gus Land, he saw the possibility of acquiring better warships.

"If the boss’s situation isn’t critical, I also suggest the boss wait a little longer," the Collector said, "Gus Land undoubtedly has better warships that are more suited for the boss. As for the pressure, the boss need not worry, there are indeed advanced pieces of equipment in the Gus Land that are expensive. However, some resources are equally scarce to them, which we can obtain relatively easily... Once we advance to a C-level Civilization, or when we go to war with the Daike Civilization, some resources will be easier to acquire because we won’t need to meticulously prevent investigation by the Daike Civilization and could plunder from war."

Shen Shi nodded slightly.

He knew that at this moment, although the Human Civilization had not yet completed the construction of the Star System Fortress, it was still preparing to submit an application to advance to a C-level Civilization under the pressure from the Daike Civilization in the Mude System.

And whether they succeed or fail, there will surely be a war between Humanity and the Daike Civilization.

But if they fail, Humanity will face even greater pressure in this battle.

Because by that time, the Daike Civilization would represent the Mude System to punish Humanity.

Yet, does that mean Humanity will completely cease to resist?

Impossible.

This is not merely about erasing culture, but complete annihilation, so Human Civilization simply cannot surrender a second time!

This battle is inevitable.

Gong Chu cares so much about the advancement of Masters of Primordial Energy for this very reason as well.

"Then we’ll wait for a period."

Shen Shi had now blocked all information transmission from the Worren scout forces; future history substantiated this as well, so he was not in a hurry to deal with that Daike Base.

Since there are already backups, waiting for something better isn’t a problem either.

He glanced at the time and wasn’t planning to leave, so he asked, "Tell me about Gus Land."

He was quite concerned about this Gus Land now.

It might be the most powerful civilization he could understand so far!
