CHAPTER 1271: CHAPTER 713: SEVENTEEN THOUSAND COMBAT POWER?!

Edward is actually a well-known old professor. During the Earth period, he was already famous, with numerous disciples and followers.

"I have an impertinent request."

"Please go ahead."

"This Insect Soldier should be considered one of the more top-tier types, right? Could you show us the values?" Professor Edward appeared somewhat restrained. "I’m just curious, it doesn’t mean anything else; if you’re not willing, it’s fine."

For a moment, the room fell silent.

Even the soldiers all looked over.

Their power armor has a threat value of over 2000. How much is this imposing Golden Beetle Clan warrior’s combat power?

This is indeed a very big question.

Lu Tiantian, this guy, is also a sly fellow. He paused and said honestly, "We are unclear about the data concerning Phenomenon Level Mind radiation, which will have significant deviations. Additionally, these Worm Kings, even among the phenomenon [Insect], are a very powerful category."

"Lu Da, try it, relax your mind, do not resist that gaze," Lu Yuan spoke.

"As you command."

Worm King · Lu Da clenched his fist, a "crackling" sound echoed, and the golden shell surprisingly expanded like muscles, with bone spikes growing out over the surface of his joints, looking increasingly sinister.

The skin surface further radiated a dazzling golden hue.

The numbers on the screen began to rise significantly, eventually displaying a line of information: [Ancient Insect Race · Worm King, Bloodline Type A1392, 18.012%, B221* Composition 11.092%...]

[Extraordinary Ability: Bloodline Devouring, Extraordinary Resistance...]

The threat level was locked at the number "178213."

The experts on the Human Alliance side, upon seeing this number, widened their eyes and swallowed hard.

They had already mentally prepared a bit, mostly expecting numbers in the "thousands" or "tens of thousands."

Tens of thousands were already quite astonishing!

But now, suddenly it’s seventeen hundred thousand, ridiculously high!

They didn’t actually doubt the data was wrong, considering the Worm Kings are affiliated with Green Grass City and frequently come here for experiments, how can there be errors?!

And this exaggerated magnitude is already a qualitative change; it’s like punching a kindergarten, and no amount of power armor is enough to fight it. Unless using hydrogen bombs and deploying weapons of mass destruction, otherwise one Worm King could slaughter an entire city!

This complex emotion lingered for a long time, unwilling to dissipate.

"Mr. Lu Yuan’s suggestion indeed deserves careful consideration."

"Perhaps heading to Northern Territory isn’t too bad... It’s hard for a civilization to catch up by working behind closed doors."

Lu Yuan also felt a sense of pride, perhaps this is the feeling of returning in glory...

"Leaving alone, staying in a doghouse, returning as a local warlord, with a command, three hundred thousand troops come roaring!" Certain clichéd internet novel scenes surfaced in his mind.

Moreover, this subtle emotion arose from the collective!

Being proud of the achievements made for the entire Green Grass City.

...

As such, after several hours of visiting, the Human Alliance team returned in a daze.

Even though what they witnessed was less than one-tenth of Green Grass City’s six hundred years of development, it still caused an uproar!

The crowd quickly divided into two factions.

"It’s simply... absurd! A Level 5 Civilization? Do you know the difficulty of achieving a Level 5 Civilization? To become one in just six hundred years? At this rate, Level 5 Civilizations from previous epochs should have flooded long ago."

Those older leaders, who haven’t witnessed it firsthand, completely cannot imagine it.

People are always resistant to things they haven’t encountered, even the smartest among them.

Moreover, this issue touches the very core—that is—"dignity."

Dignity is a very subtle thing; to stand on the Pangu Continent, one must have the spirit to strive and improve. If a civilization is like mud, witnessing prosperity and decline will not elicit any psychological reaction, then it undoubtedly cannot develop into a strong force. But sometimes, dignity is a developmental hindrance, denying oneself is indeed a very difficult task.

"Absurd? Do you mean we collectively fell under hypnosis and were fooled? Did they travel thousands of miles just to fool us, a Third-level Civilization?"

"Isn’t it out of consideration for the same kinship? Otherwise, we are just an ordinary civilization."

"But..."

"No, they said they are not actually a Level 5 Civilization, but their strength is anyway Level Four Civilization. Level Four Civilization isn’t something we can easily match."

Inside the flying fortress’ large conference room, the discussion was very lively, various people with white skin, yellow skin, and black skin argued into noise.

Li Chunhong suddenly gently knocked on the table twice: "Everyone, listen to me for a moment, Lord Lu Yuan just told me, he wants to bring his family to Green Grass City, but they will retain personal residency in Yunhai City. This is a personal matter, I have already agreed."

Upon hearing this, many people shut their mouths and their minds quickly started thinking.

Taking people away means the bonds of connection between both sides are being removed, leaving from now on only a hometown sentiment between Lu Yuan and the Human Alliance.

But hometown sentiment is a very vague thing; if the hometown is flourishing, it’s nice to add icing on the cake, but if the hometown is a puddle of mud, few would expend effort to help—especially when this hometown is 90% concentrated in Yunhai City, the so-called Human Alliance is just incidental.
