Chapter 439: Chapter 260: Staring at the Es Civilization


Only Shen Shi and the Three-Day Civilization know the true value of Shen Shi’s words.


It’s not about directly providing some technology, but rather a direction, a development direction of powerful technology rooted in the mysterious Relic Civilization.


Understand that as the technological levels continue to rise, the pursuit of technology becomes extremely difficult. In the absence of a visible path forward, it’s almost impossible to continue rapid development. Choosing the wrong path in research is common, and sometimes, to explore the possibilities of a technology, countless failures must be faced, wasting numerous amounts of time and resources.


From this perspective, later civilizations in the system have a higher advantage.


For instance, Human Civilization has developed to this point almost without encountering such a civilization, because all its technology has a pathway direction sourced from Future World’s humans, and even directly from stronger civilizations.


If it weren’t for this convenience and relied solely on human development, humans probably couldn’t even step into D-level.


At this moment, Shen Shi provides the Three-Day Civilization with just such a future development direction.


Even though the direction is not clear, perhaps thin enough to be just a sentence, if this direction points straight to transaction market-level technology, its value cannot be estimated!


In a certain sense, this is also the reason why exists like the Es Civilization and Gus Civilization are madly collecting Relic Devices—even if they can’t reverse-engineer technology from these devices, they can at least see the future road through them.


Of course, for the Three-Day Civilization, this transaction might not be a loss, but Shen Shi certainly makes a bloody profit!


This is the top-level warship and weapon!


The outcome is as expected.


When Shen Shi returned to the modern society, after taking out these warships in the Eternal Solar System, the third future line once again changed.


The power of Human Civilization has indeed made greater breakthroughs, but the breakthroughs weren’t overly exaggerated. This is because Human Civilization had actually developed to its peak before, and obtaining more resources and comprehensive technology through these warships couldn’t give Human Civilization greater breakthroughs.


It is also a manifestation of trading time reaching a certain level.


At this level, the development of civilization is no longer closely related to the resources of the Future World, even having more, it cannot be digested.


Shen Shi knows that he doesn’t need to bring things from the Future World to the present anymore.


The benefit of time has temporarily filled them.


"Unfortunately, the strength of B4 is still not enough." Shen Shi sighed lightly.


After three thousand years, Human Civilization has only reached the Starry Era four thousand years ago. The accomplishment of such feats in such a short time is an unimaginable miracle for any civilization.


However, for Shen Shi’s goal, for the crisis humanity faces, it is not enough.


At least, the crisis in the second future line has only been slightly alleviated.


So after the enjoyable time from cheating ends, what’s left to do is to find ways to continue.


Time is definitely on humanity’s side.


A mere thousand years is still too brief for Human Civilization.


Next, Shen Shi continues to frequently travel between various timelines. Apart from a self-acting time incarnation in the third future line, time incarnations in other future lines have already been merged by Shen Shi, obtaining stronger power while gaining more responsibility.


But the most stable is still the modern world.


As the foundation of everything, the development of the modern world is the most important and perfect. Human Civilization has completely left the Milky Way Galaxy and is continuing to sail into the depths of the desolate universe.


Avoiding all civilizations and hiding oneself in unreachable locations is the primary task of contemporary Human Civilization.


With the continuous trial and error from the third future line and Shen Shi’s increasingly powerful "Prophet" ability, the chances of making mistakes are almost nonexistent. Human Civilization is predictably to become an unsearchable Ghost.


Of course, hiding oneself does not mean ceasing development.


As the main force of development, the "Pirate Alliance" has already begun perfecting itself, and with personal terminals linked to the transaction market, it has penetrated into the Mude System.


Shen Shi did not initially let the Pirate Alliance target the powerful B-level civilizations, nor was there a necessity to do so.


In the long future of Human Civilization, there will be no shortage of technology and powerful devices.


What is lacking are basic resources and sufficient manpower.


And these, simply plundering weaker civilizations is already sufficient.


In fact, warned by historical data from the third future line, Shen Shi has abandoned those civilizations that have reached C9 Level and begun to receive attention from B-level civilizations, focusing on even weaker civilizations.


Raiding, plundering, disappearing like a Ghost without a trace.


Even though the Pirate Alliance is just starting, more and more resources are converging towards Human Civilization, with a speed and efficiency that far exceeded what Human Civilization once achieved when mining within the Solar System.
