CHAPTER 85: CHAPTER 79: TIME TO LAUNCH THE INTERSTELLAR CIVILIZATION

Within just a few hours, all sorts of related live streams and videos sprang up one after another, and people all over the world were fervently discussing them.

The voices of discussion even easily overshadowed the huge number of casualties from the previous day.

This too could be counted as one of the characteristics of this era.

All kinds of unprecedented changes were occurring one after another at this moment, with each one drawing intense attention, making people overwhelmed yet perpetually pulled along by the next thing.

However, the biggest question right now was that the number of Monument of Great Achievements badges was too few.

A mere one hundred.

It couldn’t even guarantee that every country would get a monument like this.

Even though there aren’t many people now with "great achievements," this quantity still can’t satisfy people’s immense enthusiasm.

Shen Yu also gave a response, but he didn’t address the public—instead, he informed the global Meteorite Crisis management department.

"These monuments aren’t without a price. In theory, this counts as extra rewards from the Association for my resolve to save the world."

At the meeting, Shen Yu didn’t give much explanation about many of the Monument of Great Achievements rules.

He only stated calmly: "The more effectively we resist the apocalypse, the more monuments will be created, including the effect of achievement transformation. What the Association values in civilizations isn’t simply power, but potential. The same applies to members—the more potential a civilization or member has, the more support they can get."

So, what does a civilization’s potential mean?

The determination to resist the end of the world, and the ability actually demonstrated, is undoubtedly part of it.

The Meteorite Crisis management department think-tank studied the issue carefully and agreed with this explanation.

Given that resources are limited, and members don’t die when civilization is destroyed, ordinary civilizations truly aren’t worth the Association’s attention.

Only civilizations that stand out in mutual support and show extraordinary potential have a chance to receive help.

Moreover, it’s not enough for the civilization alone to show potential—the Association actually cares even more about its members.

Both need to show potential—to cultivate more members, and indirectly help their civilizations.

Fortunately, humanity has had good luck in terms of members.

They’ve already faintly noticed—even if they don’t know the reason, the other two members clearly have some respect for their member.

These details may not even be noticed by the individuals themselves, but they’re evident upon closer inspection.

"This is our chance. No matter what, we have to seize it." For once, the Meteorite Crisis management department’s upper management reached a high degree of consensus.

Then, they began a series of discussions about how to use the Monument of Great Achievements efficiently.

The strategies they came up with were not only immediately effective but also took into account the specific situations of countries around the world.

For example, the West Country decided to create the profession of Free Hunter, giving certain people weapons, Martial Arts skills, and Worm Meat, encouraging them to hunt monsters and gain achievements.

Another example is the Eastern Country, which decided to quickly promote Martial Arts in the military, while also recruiting from society. Under stable order, they would dig out those with talent and combat awareness, enabling them to rapidly form fighting power.

There were also other attempts at achievement by various personnel.

In short, just as Shen Yu predicted, from ordinary people to the upper echelons, the entire civilization’s enthusiasm for resisting the apocalypse had significantly increased.

As for the more specific and far-reaching impact, time will be needed to confirm it.

Once he finished the internal Human Civilization meeting, he quickly hurried to the Gray Mist Space, where he had to convene another routine meeting within the Mist.

"That move of yours really is incredible," Martial Artist Shen Yu said with obvious envy. "Too bad I can’t do something like that—our world simply doesn’t have any specific enemies, and people’s individual qualities aren’t high. If I try to make them stronger this way, it’ll just throw everything into chaos."

The truth is, for Martial Artist Shen Yu, using the Immortal’s name to give certain Martial Arts Masters rewards to make them more obedient is actually more effective.

"Each world has its own circumstances," Shen Yu said with a smile. "Since the Gray Mist has already been distributed, whatever ideas you have, you can try them yourself."

"But once the news gets back, those masters will go crazy—they’ll be dying to flock to your world," Martial Artist Shen Yu sighed and shook his head.

He had certainly taken note of Shi Zhuang’s performance.

But it wasn’t just Shi Zhuang.

Old Lady Liu, Sword Return Two—weren’t they all beside themselves with excitement, desperate to kill and create achievements?

If not for this change, even Martial Artist Shen Yu himself couldn’t have realized how astonishing those masters in his world could perform.

Turns out all their previous effort was just for show—they hadn’t truly gone all out.

"I’m very open to it," Shen Yu said seriously. "The Martial Arts World’s strength lies in fighting enemies, not in endless Heavenly Calamities. If your world’s masters come to mine or to interstellar world Shen Yu, they’ll perform even better."

He had actually thought about this question before.

After all, the Mist value created by the few masters who came so far has far exceeded the ’cost of their journey.’

But after careful consideration, Martial Artist Shen Yu still shook his head.

"This can’t be rushed. My world still needs those masters to unify order. Without them, the rest of the common people would be tough to manage—not to mention, I haven’t even unified our civilization’s order yet."
