Chapter 963: Giant Enterprises and the New Era
After Lu Xingshi entered the Etruscan Empire, he began to inquire about the recent situation.

It's basically that the Human Empire and the Sky Demon Empire have been in a stalemate for 100,000 years, with natural wins and losses and changes for both sides during this period.

It had also gone through civil wars, rebellions, wars that destroyed the nation, and so on, but due to the struggle between the two gods, not much had changed until today.

However, in the past 100,000 years, the two empires have changed regimes countless times, and even the systems have been constantly changing.

The only thing that remains unchanged is that it is still composed of two species: humans and space demons.

The human empire is still populated by humans, as can be seen from the name.

The branch of the Sky Demon Empire was once a human race from an interstellar civilization, but they spent too much time with the evil god, the Son of the Stars, and eventually mutated into a new species called Sky Demons in the evil god's environment.

The skin all over his body turned purple-black, his hands turned into something like claws, a pair of bat wings grew behind him, and he controlled new psychic powers derived from psychic power and genetic engineering.

Of course, in the mouth of the human empire, it is called evil energy.

At the same time, it possesses advanced technology, such as psychic radiation guns, super-quantum space psychic armor, etc.

In terms of technology, they are not inferior to humans. However, because the Sons of the Stars are not as limited as the Lord of Glory of the Empire and the Black Hole Sanctuary, they are naturally defeated repeatedly in front of the Human Empire and are finally forced to hold on.

When a full-scale war is not launched, the only way to undermine the internal stability of the human empire is through conspiracy means such as infiltration and bribery.

However, the effects of such methods are very limited. The Human Empire is not stupid. They will not be prepared for anything and will allow you to destroy them if you come to destroy them?
In fact, humans are more powerful if they reversely infiltrate the Sky Demon Empire. The Human Empire itself is more powerful. Not to mention destroying the Sky Demon Empire, it should not be a problem to counter and fight back through some means.

So from all aspects, if the Sky Demon Empire did not have the black hole fortress left over from the interstellar civilization period and strengthened by the core of the cosmic fortress, whether it could defeat the Human Empire would be one thing.

"This development is indeed not right. In all the novels I read, the human race is always oppressed by the alien races."

"In the worlds I've encountered, except for the Great Dynasty, when things were developing normally, they all beat the alien races so hard that they could hardly breathe. They were so fierce and vigorous that they looked terrible."

Lu Xingshi complained.

The development of the Human Empire is particularly powerful, but unlike the Sky Demon Empire, it did not inherit the legacy of interstellar civilization and combine it with the power of evil gods, but instead formed a completely new magical device.

It is probably an enhanced version of the former magical weapon. It does not simply rely on external objects. Many magical devices have the effect of giving permanent enhancement to humans, such as improving strength, gaining talents, rapidly growing skills, etc. after use.

If a human being is endowed with various magical devices, he can transform from a novice into a veteran with powerful strength in a short period of time, and if he is equipped with weapons and protective magic devices, his combat power can soar.

However, the human empire also has its own drawbacks.

The Etruscan Empire during this period was an era of giant corporations. Magic device companies monopolized everything and became powerful chaebols. The Etruscan Empire was just a puppet controlled by the magic device giant corporations.

Strength and financial resources are tied together, and people at the bottom of society... live very well. Even if they don't have strength, they won't starve to death.

The existence of magic devices has greatly improved the productivity of the human empire. Even homeless people who do nothing can live a prosperous life with relief funds and food every month.

If you ask whether there are negative situations, of course there are, but in front of the huge human empire, there are simply not many obstacles.

"Then it seems that there is nothing for me to do. Should I find a place to stay for about ten years?" Lu Xingshi felt that this was a time of peace and prosperity.

In about ten years, his real body will arrive in this world. Then the whole world will become his nourishment and the higher level for him to transcend.

The entity has already touched the threshold called infinity. As long as it formally crosses this threshold, it will be able to reach the realm of transcendence.

As for what this realm is, it is the infinity that covers everything. This is thanks to the space technology derived from the parallel space-time technology and the time technology that comes from the destiny of time travel.

Even if he wants to cause trouble, he has no chance, so he can only take things one step at a time.

Especially since the Human Empire strictly monitors everything through powerful magic devices, not to mention privacy. The giant magic device companies have absolute military power in their hands, which cannot be shaken by ordinary people.

What's more, it's not the end of the dynasty yet, and no one would think of rebelling.

Especially since the giant magic device companies used the method of boiling the frog in warm water and then combining it with sugar-coated bullets, basically no one wanted to ruin their own lives.

However, it is precisely because of this practice of transferring all exploitation to magic devices and not exploiting the middle and lower classes that the population has exploded, and the number of magicians, who are extraordinary beings among humans, has also increased dramatically every year.

Therefore, the Sky Demon Empire is no match for the current Human Empire.

Although the giant magic device companies have a monopoly, they never target the middle and lower classes of human beings. Therefore, on the whole, they are not a cancer, but are in a symbiotic state with the human empire itself, even though the Etruscan Empire has become a puppet of many giant magic device companies.

But as long as human civilization can be strong, the Lord of Empire Glory, as a god, will not interfere too much, but will support it instead.

He controls the empire and glory. His priesthood does not state that the empire must become a puppet, so he does not care what form human civilization takes, he only cares about whether it is strong or not.

"Or, how about becoming a magician? Then find the one favored by fate and see if you can trick the human guardian." Lu Xingshi thought about this matter.

As for doing business and becoming a new giant? Forget it. The magic device industry of the entire empire has been completely solidified, and it is not something he can intervene in. On the contrary, becoming a magician can get in touch with more magic device systems.

He also thought about becoming a magic researcher, but he found a serious problem, that is, the examination was too strict, and it was not that you could achieve success overnight just by relying on your talent.

Instead, you need to work your way up step by step through corporate qualifications.

Even if Lu Xingshi replaced one person, it would take decades.

Every one of those well-known magic researchers has the protection left by the two gods, the Protector of Humanity and the Lord of Empire's Glory.

He wanted to replace them successfully without alerting the two gods. The success rate was there, but only about 30% at most.

And even if the replacement is successful, it will still attract attention because of its own changes.

It is better to choose a magician. Although it is just a way of fighting and killing, you can get in touch with various magical devices and you can also do your own research.

Many magicians are self-taught magic researchers.

Of course, every magic researcher is a powerful magician.

It was not like the Federation and the Chosen Ones he had experienced before, who would deliberately suppress researchers.

At the same time, magic researchers are also shareholders of magic giants, lifelong employees, and a host of other identities that are tied to the giants.

"The magic system is already infinitely close to the modern system. The magic devices of the human empire are equivalent to the combination of electrical appliances, thermal weapons, etc. in modern technology."

"So if you want to forge an identity, you have to be careful."

"Let's find a lonely orphan." Lu Xingshi did not plan to forge an identity for himself, but planned to continue replacing.

The examination of the magician does not receive as much attention from the gods as the examination of the magic researcher.

“But then again, the mid- and low-level transcendents, including the magicians, don’t seem to know the existence of gods, even the evil god Son of the Stars of the Sky Demon Empire, who is their enemy.”

"It seems to be concealed."

Lu Xingshi didn't know why he had to hide it, but he thought that whether they knew it or not, it wouldn't really matter.

Firstly, there is no war now, and secondly, even if they knew about it during the war, it would not affect the overall situation. That kind of high level is not something that low-level and middle-level magicians can intervene in.

In this case, it allows most people to live better without knowing it.

What's more important is that if it is really exposed, once a problem of faith arises, for example, if the entire nation believes in the Lord of Glory of the Empire, it is likely to trigger the protection mechanism of the human guardians, and determine that the Lord of Glory of the Empire is a threat, and take direct action. What if

There have been cases where this method was used to use human guardians to kill the Children of the Stars. The result was naturally the destruction of a certain empire and the birth of a new human empire.

And because of this incident, the sky demons invaded on a large scale. If it weren't for the humans favored by fate who came out to turn the tide, then the human guardians would have come out to clear the area.

After that, no one used this cool operation anymore.

Before killing the enemy, you may die suddenly. Who would risk his life and power to do such a thing?

The cost is too high and no one is willing to do it.

After learning about this piece of history, Lu Xingshi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

All I can say is that the world is indeed a big makeshift team. If someone dares to come up with a bad idea, there will be people who dare to agree, and more importantly, who actually dare to implement it.

The destruction of the human empire at this stage was indeed not unjustified.

However, the Human Empire had a strong foundation and its people were very fierce. Even with such a good opportunity, the Sons of the Stars and the Sky Demon Empire still had no way to take down the Human Empire. In the end, they were forced to withdraw and were even severely killed in the counterattack.

In the Sky Demon Empire, many similar absurd situations that led to crises had also occurred, but as long as the Son of Stars was alive, the worst that could happen was that they would enter a new era just like the Human Empire.

As long as the gods in charge live, the empires of these two species will not perish, but will only be renewed.

The major premise is that Lu Xingshi does not exist.

Otherwise, even if there is no opportunity to cause trouble, Lu Xingshi will still torment them to pieces.

It is possible that a full-scale war might break out between the Human Empire and the Sky Demon Empire.
