National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 647 Civilization Merit
When the Song family heard the news that ten galaxy ships were coming together, it was three months after they returned to the Chipan River system through the space wormhole.

The news was conveyed directly to the two star destroyer captains, Song Wujiang and Luo Yi, by the Xianqin Divine Dynasty's Xinhuo Ancestral Temple through the Supreme Xinhuo Network.

It is reported that the ten Galaxy ships that came to support were led by the [Eclipse King] of the [Eclipse Meng] family, a giant of the Divine Dynasty. Although the support came a little late, after witnessing the tragic battle, the ten Galaxy captains spared no expense, went deep into the rear of the Eight-Armed Snake Demon Civilization millions of light years ago, and launched a desperate pursuit of the group of snake demon overlords.

In the end, more than thirty seventh-order eight-armed snake demons and two eighth-order eight-armed snake demons were killed. It can be said that the blood of the Domination was used to commemorate the human citizens who died in this battle.

In addition, they received another piece of news.

Theirs was not the only propulsion fleet that was sniped. The other three empires each had a propulsion fleet of the same size that also suffered dimensionality reduction sniping. Among them, the Eighth Propulsion Fleet under the Templar Federation suffered the worst. It was said that all the star destroyers were sunk, and the two Galaxy captains who were with the team were killed and seriously injured. More than 90% of their fleets were destroyed.

Because of this incident, the four major empires of Xinhuo were all furious. Not only did they increase the number of galaxy-guarding ships in each of their fleets, they also increased the momentum of their main fleets. As long as they put enough pressure on the front line of the Eight-Armed Snake Demon, it would be difficult for them to spare a large number of peak combat forces to replicate similar operations in the future.

The last point is also what Song Chi and other captains who survived the battlefield are most concerned about.

The four empires decided that based on this incident, all the captains who died in the sniper attack would be given the title of human martyrs, and the territories that had been assigned to each party would be protected by the four empires for the next ten thousand years, and no force would be able to invade in any form within a limited time.

In addition, all survivors of the sniper attack will have all their battlefield merits gained since the start of the war doubled, and in the next thousand years they can return to the rear of the battle line to recuperate without being forced to return to the front line.

No force or individual can say anything wrong about the decision of the four empires. Both the dead and the living have received sufficient compensation. At least after this incident, other forces will not have any doubts about it, and their enthusiasm for promotion will be further enhanced.

……

Song Jiading Hailongxiang encrypted communication group chat:

"The list of meritorious service has been released, let's take a look!"

As he spoke, Song Wujiang sent a screenshot of the merit list he had just received from the Xinhuo network to the group chat, while explaining:
"Captain Xinhuo's Xinhuo Seed was awakened with the help of various Xinhuo Source Seeds, which are themselves connected to each other. Each Xinhuo Source Seed was split from the [Original Source Seed]. The four great dynasties share all the authority of the [Original Source Seed]. They can record the battle records of each Xinhuo warship without omission through the Xinhuo ship body connected to the Xinhuo Seed, so there is no need to question the accuracy of this merit list!"

Everyone suddenly realized, all their doubts were gone, and they began to check the merit points they had earned.

The same is true for Song Chi.

However, to his surprise, he did not need to search for his own name in the densely packed list. The merit list was arranged in order from high to low according to the merit point value, and his name was surprisingly the first.

[Civilization Merit List-Xian Qin Eleventh Route Advance Fleet List (Survival)]

[One: [Tianxu Cangqionghao·Songchi] -124500]

[Two: [Dinghai Longxiang·Song Wujiang] -108960]

[Three: [Shenyuedanghai·Zhao Li]-101588]

[Four: [Liu Shu, the King of the Wolf] -98832]

[Five: [Northern Dome Soldier Headquarters·Shen Wei]-95774]

……

[Fourteen: [Song Yan, the Blazing Sea] -81455]

……

[Twenty-two: [Acala Vidyaraja Title·Song Shiyuan] -75990]

……

[Thirty: [Purple Moon Long Song·Song Xingru] -71660]

[70856: [Dinghai Xinglonghao·Song Shixing] -]

……

[Two Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty: [Star River Minglong·Song Yiming] -5689]

……

As Song Chi glanced over the Civilization Merit List, he was a little surprised at first, but he soon figured it out.

Judging from this list, the kills from their mirror battleship were undoubtedly also included.

Also, don't forget that in order to fill up the soul-devouring progress of the [Soul-Devouring Altar] as quickly as possible, he has been using the Tianxu Cangqiong's "High-Energy Particle Storm", "Wanfu Purple Thunder Prison", "Neutron Star Fission" and other group attack characteristics to strangle low- and medium-level eight-armed snake demons and sky snake motherships.

It is precisely because of these layers of accumulation that the [Tianxu Cangqiong] was sent to the first place on the merit list.

Although Song Chi felt that this was a bit high-profile, he felt relieved when he thought that these civilization merit points could be doubled later and that they could be exchanged for various rare items in the Divine Dynasty War Vault.

Moreover, given the current state of the Tianxu Cangqiong, there is a high probability that it will officially impact the star destroyer within one or two hundred years. By then, even if it is low-key, it will instantly attract endless attention.

After all, his age has never been a secret. Now he is only over 900 years old at most. Even in 200 years, he will only be around 1,100 years old. How can a star destroyer captain who is over 1,000 years old not attract attention?
Just as his thoughts were racing, Ru Zu asked a question in the group chat that many people had guessed about, but were not sure about.

"Ancestor, why are there less than 20 star destroyers on this list? I remember that the head of the Lingyue Zhao family had an amazing record in the past few hundred years. How come I didn't see it?"

In response to this question, Song Tianhao, who had personally experienced the war between the two snipers, said

"I'm not sure about the others, but the head of the Lingyue Zhao family was attacked by an eighth-level snake demon on the spot. Before we evacuated through the space wormhole, his ship had already sunk!"

Following Song Tianhao, Song Wujiang further explained:

"It's not just the head of the Lingyue Zhao family. In this battle, as many as fifteen star destroyer captains of the fleet perished, including the [King Dongli] of the Yaohan Kingdom."

Although they had guessed it a long time ago, when they heard it with their own ears, everyone in the group chat took a deep breath.

These are fifteen star destroyers, the top combat units of human civilization. If they were sent out, each of them could support an advanced civilization in the Broken Star Sea. They are by no means a piece of cake.

Moreover, this was just their group. If the attacked fleets under the other three empires were included, the number of star destroyer captains who died this time alone would probably be close to a hundred.

For the Song family, who had just entered the immortal family, this was simply unimaginable.

……

Seeing that the atmosphere in the group chat was becoming increasingly heavy, Song Wujiang quickly said again:
"Well, it's over. There's no point thinking about it any more. Right now, there are only two things we need to consider. The first is of course the exchange of merit points. This is the most important thing. There are a lot of good things in the Divine Dynasty's war vault. Everyone should determine the exchange items as soon as possible. The clan will then unify the records and upload them to the Divine Dynasty's ancestral court. After that, the ancestral court will specially send a fleet to deliver the things!"

As he spoke, he sent several screenshots in the group chat again.

"These are all the various exchangeable items in the War Vault. The corresponding exchange merit points are marked on the back. Everyone must remember that your existing civilization merit points will be doubled. Be sure to choose the most suitable items for your exchange!"

After saying this, he said no more, but began to carefully examine the exchange items himself.

As the second on the Civilization Merit List, after doubling, the merit points in his hands will be close to 220,000, which is a considerable amount of merit, enough for him to exchange for multiple high-level components.

The current situation is not only happening in the Song family. The Chiguluo family, the Stark family, the Philip family, etc., are all doing the same thing.

In the main control room of Tianxu Cangqiong, Song Chi also scanned the multiple screenshots in the group chat.

The ancestor uploaded a total of ten screenshots, including seven [Basic Exchange Tables], two [Intermediate Exchange Tables], and only one [Advanced Exchange Table].

As the name suggests, the [Primary Exchange Table] is the lowest, and the exchange items required mostly require merit points in the range of 1 to 10000 points.

Song Chi took a quick look and found that the resources included titanium crystals, eternal stone bricks, fourth-, fifth- and sixth-level [Silver Apples], fourth-level [Time Realm Fruit] and other resources.

These resources are of limited value in his eyes now, but in the outside world, in the eyes of those ordinary Xinhuo captains below level five, they are also extremely rare items, which makes many members of the tribe shine.

Without staying on this [Primary Exchange Table] for long, Song Chi only paid attention to the exchange requirements for the titanium crystal.

【Name: Titanium Crystal】

[Category: Strategic Resources]

【Function: Resources required to strengthen purple and above parts.】

[Exchange restrictions: None]

[Exchange price: 1 merit point → 5 points]

Seeing the word "None" after the exchange restriction, he was instantly relieved. Since the Divine Dynasty's ancestral temple had not restricted the number of individual exchanges, it meant that the reserves of titanium crystals in the secret vault were sufficient and there was no need to worry about subsequent shortages.

The items on the [Intermediate Exchange Table] require civilization merit points to exchange for basically all of them in the range of 10000 to 100000. At this level, even Song Chi's eyes would occasionally flash with brilliance, and he had considerable interest in many of the items.

【Name：Silver Apple】

[Level: Level 7]

[Name: Dominate the True Spirit]

[Level: Seventh Level]...

[Category: Additional promotion resources for Xinhuo warships]

[Level: Level 10 to Level 4 (%), Level to Level (%)]

……

[Exchange price: 50000 merit points → one copy]

----

After looking at these items one by one, Song Chi's eyes finally fell on the [Star Spirit Liquid] and the [Silver Star Bracelet] as expected.

One of them is one of the special resources required to upgrade to a Star Destroyer, and the other can increase the success rate of upgrading a Dreadnought to a Star Destroyer by 4%.

The key point is that there are strict restrictions on the exchange of the two. A single person can only exchange one. Obviously, there are not many stocks in the war vault.

Song Chi thought for just a moment, and then his eyes were determined. He had decided to exchange for one [Silver Star Bracelet]. After hundreds of years of collection, the Tianxu Cangqiong was only missing one [Silver Star Bracelet] from the special resource formula needed to upgrade to a star destroyer. Naturally, he would not miss this opportunity.

After all, once they are gathered together, the success rate of promotion will be 10%.

Of course, the key is that Song Chi currently has enough merit points, which would be nearly 250,000 points if doubled, so he doesn't feel bad about taking out 20,000 points.

As for the [Star Spirit Fluid], he was not in a hurry to exchange it, but turned his attention to the last [Advanced Exchange Table] to see if there were any higher-level additional promotion resources.

To be honest, he really doesn't think much of 4%.

When his gaze shifted to the [Advanced Exchange Table], the gleam in Song Chi's eyes never dimmed again. The things in this [Advanced Exchange Table] were really tempting.

Although the quantity is far less than the first two, the value is simply incomparable.

【Name: Golden Apple】

[Level: Eighth Level]

【Name: Golden Apple】

[Name: Nine-transformation Spiritual Fruit]

[Category: Additional promotion resources for Xinhuo warships]

[Level: Level 20 to Level 10 (%), Level to Level (%)]

……

[Exchange price: 120000 merit points → one]

----

As he checked along, Song Chi felt that he was envious of every item, including the black quality [Absolute Spirit Ice Flame], which was an upgraded fire source that could upgrade the Fire Seed to black. Unfortunately, the exchange price was too high and he couldn't exchange it at all.

In addition, the ninth-level [Golden Apple] is also extremely coveted. It can freely evolve a golden object into a black object, and the same is true for upgrading the fire source.

When Song Chi saw the golden apple, the first thing he thought of was the [Mirror Image] component. If it could be evolved into a black component, the highest battleship component that could be replicated in the future would be upgraded to a lower-level colored component. It might not be a big improvement in a short period of time, but as time goes by, its effect would become more and more amazing.
