Chapter 362 The essence of civilization

The sunshine in the sky was blocked by a huge spacecraft. The Pioneer spacecraft came from the sky like a metal city, and as the height of the spacecraft gradually decreased, the shock it gave people was extremely amazing.

No one expected that this would happen. The battlefield, which was very noisy just now, suddenly became quiet. Whether it was the offensive party or the defensive party, whether it was ordinary soldiers or generals, everyone looked up at the sky in a daze, watching the Pioneer spacecraft descending in this way.

The first person who came to his senses was the gorgeous man. At first he was shocked, staring at the Pioneer spaceship that appeared in the sky with no other people, and then he showed an ecstatic expression, stretched out his hands to the sky as if he was hugging, and shouted: "This is a miracle! Miracles are coming to the holy city! The holy city is immortal, and the gods are forever!"

"The holy city is immortal, and the gods are forever!"

With his shouts, the same sounds rang one after another, and soon gathered into a group. The entire Holy City was filled with people who were excited to look at the sky, and some ordinary people and soldiers were even moved to tears. Facing the huge Pioneer spacecraft, they even knelt on the ground and welcomed the arrival of the gods in the most pious way.

On the contrary, both soldiers and generals on the attacking side showed extremely horrified expressions. They could not believe what they saw in front of them, but when they looked up, the huge Pioneer spacecraft was there, and it was even continuing to land slowly. Its huge size and majestic momentum made people almost unable to breathe.

The city they have been attacking these days is the most famous holy city on this planet. It is said that this holy city was built by gods who came from the sky countless years ago. The gods not only built this city, but also left a divine territory in this holy city and worshipped by future generations.

For thousands of years, the Holy City has been the most glorious place of this primitive civilization and is also the center that everyone yearns for. It is said that as long as you obtain the Holy City and enter the divine realm, you will become a god. Moreover, in the history of civilization, several emperors who left a great reputation in history have all come to the Holy City. This city is the capital of the kingdom, and has been passed down from generation to generation to this day.

Now, the Holy City is also the capital of an empire, but this empire that has continued for more than 300 years has lost its glory and no longer has the glory of the past.

The decline of the empire began decades ago. Some countries and tribes around the empire gradually rose up and continued to encroach on the empire's territory. In addition, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued over the years. Although the empire's monarch tried hard to save them, he was powerless to face such a big crisis.

The war began several decades ago, and the last little strength of the empire was consumed by the continuous war that lasted for decades. Since last year, the situation on various battlefields has deteriorated. The empire's soldiers shed all their last drop of blood and failed to stop the enemy's footsteps. While losing one piece of territory after another, the united enemies attacked the holy city with an unstoppable force. Now is the final moment of the empire. If the holy city is lost, the empire will perish.

In order to protect the Holy City, the Empire decided to fight to the death and took out its final military force to launch a decisive battle under the Holy City. However, this decisive battle was doomed to a failure from the beginning. The enemy's power was too strong. The defense of the Holy City was in danger. When the enemy finally used their trump card and sent out a powerful dragon knight, even the high priest of the Holy City took the battle personally, but he still could not stop the opponent's attack.

Seeing that the Holy City was about to fall, the emergence of a small shuttle unexpectedly changed the war. When the Dragon Knight was defeated and fled, the high priest finally defended the city, which made everyone feel relieved for a while.

But all this is not over yet. Because the enemy has only temporarily stopped the attack, the power balance between the two sides is still very different. If there were no accidents, today's attacking empire could not escape destruction, and the holy city would also fall into the enemy's hands.

But no one expected that at this moment, the appearance of the Pioneer spacecraft changed everything. When the huge Pioneer spacecraft descended from the sky and appeared in front of everyone in this scene, the high priest immediately thought of the guests who claimed to have come from a distant place yesterday. Are these guests the gods mentioned in the classics? Yes! They must be gods, gods descended from the sky. Their appearance is almost exactly the same as those mentioned in the ancient classics retained in the temple. The gods appeared in the holy city at this time. Isn’t this to save them?

The legends about gods and holy cities have been passed down for thousands of years in this primitive civilization. Of course, the united attackers also know these legends and understand the arrival of this holy city. Looking at the huge Pioneer spacecraft, the generals were anxious and some even felt agitation. Could it be that the imperial luck has not been exhausted? Can the holy city be blessed by gods?

Before they could make a judgment, or when these leaders were hesitant to consider whether to continue attacking or let the troops retreat, many soldiers on the battlefield, including some low-level generals, could no longer control their fear when they were facing the powerful pressure of the Pioneer spacecraft. Some people threw away their weapons regardless of the situation, and knelt down at the Pioneer spacecraft in the sky like the other party in the Holy City. They stopped in horror, and forgot everything around them in a daze, and even some people were ruthless.

The Pioneer spacecraft appeared and was frightened. They felt that fighting with the gods was absolutely impossible to win. When they lost their courage and belief, even the most powerful army would collapse in an instant. Soldiers began to flee from the battlefield, one, two, three, five... The number of people increased. No matter how many generals shouted to stop them, they could not control more and more soldiers to escape. Even in the end, even some low-level generals began to flee from the battlefield. The fleeing crowd became larger and larger like snowballs, and the army finally collapsed...

"The holy city is immortal, the gods are forever! Warriors! Attack! Attack!"

When he saw this scene, the high priest couldn't help but feel excited. He stood up and pointed his hand at the fleeing enemy outside the city, making a shout that could be heard throughout the battlefield.

"Occurrence! Attack!"

The soldiers of the empire swept away the decadent fear before. They were all as furious as if they were shot with a needle of chicken blood. With the protection of gods, what else do they fear? The enemy has already escaped. Isn’t this the best chance to win? Under the command of the generals, the gate of the holy city opened. Countless armies waving weapons rushed out of the city, and the sound of killing shocked the sky and launched a counterattack towards the arrogant enemy that had just been invincible.

It is not an exaggeration to defeat the enemy as many as the Holy City. The number of enemies that were far more than the Holy City was killed by the counterattacked imperial soldiers and fled in a panic. The soldiers and generals who were abandoned with armor ignored nothing, and they even lost the courage to turn back and fight. There was only one thought in their minds, which was to escape! Flee desperately, the farther away, the better.

Looking down from the sky, there were fleeing troops everywhere. Some of the troops were even driven around by pursuers who were only one-something or better. They ran slowly and were chased by the other party and killed them. They ran fast and did not look back. They just wanted to run away. The soldiers who saw that they could not escape but resisted but had no courage simply squatted on the ground and raised their hands to signal surrender.

In just half an hour, the situation on the battlefield completely changed. The army of the attacking side collapsed, and even the dragon knights hovered in the sky ran away without a trace. In the end, except for the leaders who were escorted by the cavalry and some guards, the entire army was almost wiped out in such a short time.

The sudden change in the war also shocked everyone on the Pioneer spacecraft, especially Tang Le, who was speechless. As a member of the Blue Star civilization, he did not understand why the dominant side would lose so quickly and so miserably. Even if the appearance of the Pioneer spacecraft was a bit amazing to the primitive civilization, it would not be like this!

On the contrary, people on one side of the Earth civilization knew better than him what was causing this. After all, the Blue Star civilization, as a third-level cosmic civilization, has entered the era of cosmic civilization for a long time. Of course, their understanding of primitive civilization is not as good as that of the Earth people who have just entered cosmic civilization. What's more, through image transmission, they can hear the shouts of the high priest clearly, and then contact the possibility of superstition, so it will be natural for one side to collapse quickly when it loses morale.

The changes in the war disrupted the landing steps arranged. Now the battlefield below has become chaotic, and the Pioneer spacecraft has temporarily continued to stay in the air. A few hours later, when the empire returned with great victory, the enemy who resisted was either captured or killed, and only a few people escaped. The battlefield gradually calmed down.

"Look, what are they doing?" Tang Le suddenly saw a scene and exclaimed at a corner of the image.

Everyone looked at the scene and saw that the soldiers who had collected the prisoners were picking out some people from the prisoners. The people they picked out all looked like earth and even cried. Some of them collapsed directly to the ground, but were still dragged aside like a dead dog...

"Don't look, this is not a good scene." Seeing this scene, Gao Jian vaguely understood, and he sighed immediately and said.

"Not a good scene? What do you mean?" Tang Le hadn't figured out the truth, but instead saw a look of unbearable expression on Luo Yan's face, and even turned his head aside. Just as he was trying to see what the people below wanted to do, a scene that shocked him happened.

The soldiers on one side of the empire began to execute the execution, and the men selected from the captive group were dragged to a clearing ground. The soldiers then pulled out their weapons without hesitation and cut off the heads of these begging and crying enemies.

One head after another rolled to the ground, and the screams and howlings of despair came to an end with the fall of the sword peak. On the contrary, although the remaining prisoners looked extremely ugly, their expressions were relaxed and atmospheric.

After cutting off the heads of hundreds of people, the soldiers continued to walk towards the next group of prisoners, and soon there were waves of howling and begging again...

Tang Le's face turned pale. He never expected to see such a cruel scene. At this moment, he finally understood why Gao Jian reminded himself so much. In the universe, wars would happen, but for wars or conflicts between cosmic civilizations, no matter how cruel they were, they would not see this bloody scene. This made Tang Le extremely uncomfortable. In fact, let alone him, including Su Yichen, who had not turned his head and witnessed this scene with his own eyes, felt that his chest was as breathless as if it was blocked from a big stone.

I changed the angle of the image and took a deep breath, which made me feel much better.

"It's so savage! It's so savage! How can you treat your kind of people like this?"

Tang Le was very angry after retching for a while. If he was the captain of the Pioneer spacecraft, he would even want to attack such a barbaric civilization on the ground. In his opinion, war is war. Since the other party has been defeated, why should he use such barbaric means to seize people's lives? Do these people from primitive civilizations know the preciousness of life?

"hehe……."

While Tangle was angry, there was a disdainful laugh beside him. Tangle looked at the person who was laughing angrily. He was Kevin Adams.

"Your Excellency, what do you mean?" Tangle asked dissatisfiedly.

"It's not interesting, it's just ridiculous." Kevin Adams said with a relaxed shrugging.

"ridiculous?"

"Yes, it's just ridiculous. Don't you think it's ridiculous to make fun of the other person with your point of view and attitude?" Kevin Adams asked with a plain expression.

"Do you think it's ridiculous? Why? Didn't you see what happened just now? Isn't this a manifestation of barbarity?" Tang Le was a little angry, and he reached out to point at the other side of the image.

"Barish? What is barbaric? What is civilized?" Kevin Adams asked coldly, and before Tang Le could answer, he continued: "What is the difference between cutting off the enemy's head with a knife and killing the enemy with a gun? As a third-level cosmic civilization, isn't it the same when you were in primitive civilization? Every civilization in the universe came like this, and it is taken for granted to the scene where you look barbaric. This is like there is no difference in the means used by the universe to conquer primitive civilization. Different means do not mean different purposes, isn't it?"

"You are quibbling! The universe civilization is completely different from the primitive civilization..."

"Different? Civilization is civilization. Before the division of cosmic civilization, civilizations were the same, and there was no distinction between high and low. What's the difference between civilization even if it progressed to the level of cosmic civilization? It's just a killing person, and using high-tech weapons is more civilized than a knife? It's ridiculous!"
