Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Ranked First in Civilization!
At this moment, a top painter from the Siti Civilization was so inspired that he couldn’t help but stare at the scene before him, wishing he could capture it on canvas right away.
It wasn’t just him, Karla too came back to her senses amidst the shock.
Turning her head, she said to him, “Paint this scene for me, I wish to offer it as a gift to the great Sovereign.”
Indeed, in the hearts of the Siti people, Shen Hao had acquired a specific title.
That was the “Sovereign”.
The reason started when Shen Qian “unintentionally” spoke of Shen Hao’s Talent, which in the eyes of the Siti people, was practically another testament to a “God”.
Their understanding of Human Civilization now, at least a large part of it, all rested on that day’s immense and grand appearance, accompanied by the limitles Suppression of the “Thunder Giant God”!
And in this respect, the Global United Front was also happy to see such a development.
This was also one of the experiences provided by the Ellie sisters, Erin and Ellie.
For a civilization, rather than having them revere Human Civilization, it’s better to have them revere an individual. After all, a civilization surely has flaws that cannot be concealed, but an individual as strong as Shen Hao, who could be deified, could deeply embed his majesty into each Siti person’s mind.
The great migration of the Siti people began.
Countless weary and emotionally charged Siti people, filled with both excitement and fear, watched as the giant spaceship slowly descended until its door opened. Upon Karla’s command, they entered in an orderly manner.

The first step was not to board, but to transport.
Large quantities of food stored in containers were brought down, followed by more heating equipment. One of the Chosen One tore open a scroll and a giant, very warm Fireball appeared in the sky, spreading its scorching light, temporarily driving back the cold wave and allowing everyone to labor more quickly.
Throughout the process, there was no chaos, and no one dared to violate the rules.
They looked at those Soldiers in their thickly-armored War Armor, maintaining order, as if they were looking at Gods.
With awe and yearning.
Even some Siti people, upon stepping onto the spaceship, became so overtaken with emotion that they prostrated themselves and kissed the deck beneath them.
“Those who have managed to survive are those who have been sifted through by the apocalypse,” Shen Qian remarked quietly to Yang Jun as he observed the scene, “Whether in terms of physique or ability, they are outstanding compared to the average values of their civilization. Once saved and properly nurtured, they will possess stronger resilience to pressure and will cherish the hard-won opportunity even more. At least for this generation, they could make significant contributions to our civilization.”
Yang Jun didn’t respond, he merely watched in silence.
In truth, it wasn’t just the Siti people; even they were no different.
If it weren’t for the first Blood Demon war, for humanity to unite this swiftly, and to establish a new social order so peacefully, it would not have been so easy.
They will eventually adapt to the era of the Civilization Trial.
Whatever doesn’t kill them, will only make them stronger.
“Let’s hope both we and they can make it,” Yang Jun finally said to himself in his heart.
Just as Shen Qian said, the surviving Siti people treasured the hope that was laid before them at this moment.
The efficiency was very high.
Even when instructing a large group of people into extremely crowded compartments, there was no resistance. Everyone complied very strictly with the rules, fearing they might be thrown off.
“Ms. Karla, please board as well,” Shen Qian spoke to Karla at the end, “We need to hurry to the next location.”
By now, everyone in the Imperial City and its vicinity had already boarded the spaceship.
A total of more than twenty million.
For a spaceship that was actually intended for a migration of two million eight hundred thousand, this was a severe overload. However, it was still far from enough.
During the previous repair process and the time on the road, Human Civilization had made every effort to divide the spaceship into compartments and even cleared out places such as the cargo hold and production areas.
Packing in one more person might mean saving one more life.
No one objected to such crowding.
Karla was even incredibly grateful.
She could clearly see that Human Civilization was doing its utmost to save more of their people, even if it was because they needed them for labor. Regardless of the reason, this attitude showed that Human Civilization would not abandon them lightly.
For the Siti people at this moment, even a negligible sense of security was extremely precious.
Karla cooperated throughout.
In the end, when the spaceship took off, the loading amount reached a staggering figure.
Seventy million people!
Of the over four thousand Chosen Ones, only about four hundred stayed behind to maintain order for the remaining people; nearly four thousand boarded, including Karla, and slowly left their homeland.
Observing the Mother Planet, now completely turned into white ice and snow from outer space, everyone stared intently, as if to eternally remember this sight.
“If not for the Trial, our planet would have been even more beautiful,” Karla seemed to reminisce about the blue skies, white clouds, and the lush forests and grasslands, as tears involuntarily fell from her eyes.
However, she quickly stopped crying, turned her head to look at another planet, equally covered in white.
That was their new home!
And at this very moment within Human Civilization, countless people were already aware of the full allegiance of the Siti Civilization.
In the midst of their busy labor, people also use their free time to passionately discuss, and the internet is flooded with various voices.
“Have you seen the photos? I must say, they are kind of cute.”
“Heard their average height is only about 1.5 meters.”
“That tail, those ears, the perfect catgirls.”
“It’s just the eyes that are too big, feels a bit weird.”
“Wonder if there’s reproductive isolation.”
“An entire civilization, three billion people died leaving just over a hundred million, it’s just too tragic.”
“Sigh, from now on we’ll all be in the same boat before the Trial, hope more of us can survive.”
“…”
Clearly, compared to the seriousness driven by interests among the higher-ups, ordinary people do not lack curiosity and sympathy towards this new species.
In the time before the Trial, the fundamental characteristics of human civilization’s grassroots society remained peace and benevolence.
Even the Trial had not changed that.
Moreover, the harsh aspects had already been captured in specific policies, so as long as the public voice did not affect the high-level decisions, the friendliness and harmony in civil society could actually contribute to the control over dependent civilizations, and thus the Global United Front was keen to guide the direction of public opinion.
This was also one piece of advice from Erin Ellie.
The settlement location for these hundred million-plus people had already been decided upon.
In place of concentrating them in one location, they were divided into several groups and scattered in various places.
At the same time, after landing, a large number of strong Siti people would be quickly assigned to simple production and construction projects, supervised by designated personnel.
In fact, the basic qualities of these surviving Siti people were even higher than the Global United Front had expected.
The Siti people, during their last Trial, had also initiated a large-scale transformation of their production, and most of these Siti were experienced in participating in high-intensity, large-scale manufacturing in factories.
Even if the tasks were different, once on the assembly line, each of them could quickly become skilled workers, especially in the most basic tasks of carrying materials on construction sites.
Keep in mind that even though robotic production lines already existed, due to constraints on points and production efficiency, robots could only serve as a complement for the short term.
The current number wasn’t even half a million units yet, and the construction front still relied heavily on human labor.
Under such circumstances, this hundred million-strong workforce would certainly bring considerable help.
As for issues like language, communication, habits, individual differences, indeed they existed, but they were minor problems.
These matters would naturally be arranged by someone, and at this moment, Shen Hao was looking at the ranking board with anticipation.
At this point, there was only one day left until the first ranking reward calculation!
For this reward, Shen Hao and most of the Chosen Ones had been waiting for a long time.
Many in the Analysis Department believed that theoretically, the ranking was the only chance for weaker civilizations to shine, so the reward should be high, and for Shen Hao, just the fact that some civilizations had made hacks specifically for the ranking reward suggested its importance!
At this moment, human civilization remained in second place.
And the third place was still chasing closely behind.
Until, the spaceship carrying seventy million Siti people finally entered the atmosphere.
At the moment it entered the planet, Shen Hao clearly saw the performance points of human civilization surge by a large margin!
It surpassed the original first place in an instant!
Ranked first!
“It should be secure now!” Shen Hao felt quite comfortable, and even a bit surprised.
This increase was more than they had anticipated.
It didn’t seem like just the addition of seventy million individuals.
There was only one explanation.
The significance of the Chosen Ones was greater than expected!
Among the more than four thousand Chosen Ones, seven were Blue Talent holders; once they were all trained to Level 10 and began their professions, they could indeed widen the gap with ordinary Transcendents even further.
Various different professions, placed in different parts of civilization, could all play no small role.
But no matter what, at this moment, human civilization was ranked first in both civilization and individual rankings!
“Now it’s about holding on,” Shen Hao looked at the information about the Underground City construction sent by Dong Gong.
Now, a new blizzard had gradually taken shape, and the construction time for the Underground City faced certain difficulties. The estimated time was tight to the limit, and some places seemed impossible to complete before the settlement.
After contemplating for a moment, Shen Hao visited the Undead World again.
Over time, he had continuously harvested quite a number of Undead that had been nurtured to the limit that Ten Thousand Soul Banner could suppress; his total points were close to 1.8 trillion now, but to secure first place, he couldn’t afford to waste any and proceeded to harvest some Undead that could have been developed further!
After all, even though the civilization was now ranked first, the gap was still not wide, and there was no guarantee that some civilizations were not doing the same as him, holding back for the last moment.
