Chapter 225 Civilizational Differences

Carrying 602 trillion Level 7 Space Marines, Mu Kange followed Ling Hao's instructions and arrived at the headquarters of the Layton Group. Well, the one on Mars is hardly even a branch, so it's not hard to understand, right?

What exactly is a Level 7 Space Marine?

Using things familiar to Mu Kange as reference points, it's the Three Tribulations Ghost Immortal in *Yang Shen*, the Eternal Star in *Swallowed Star*, the Four Extremes Secret Realm in *Covering the Sky*, the Six Levels of Divine Power in *Eternal Life*, the Primordial Breath in *Star River Emperor*, and so on...

It can only be said that Ling Hao is really too outrageous, but after all, he is a member of the genius club, which only has 42 members in the entire galaxy. In such a large area and among so many civilizations, there are only this many members, so it is normal for him to be superhuman.

The only drawback is that these 60.2 million Level 7 Space Marines are not psionicists, but rather Level 7 Space Marines on the biological side of the corresponding machines.

Following Ling Hao's instructions, Mu Kange made no attempt to conceal himself, even dressing up as he had when he participated in the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Tournament, and appeared casually outside the Layton Group headquarters.

Here's something I need to mention: the headquarters of the Layton Group isn't actually called the Layton Group, but rather the Gangshan Security Group. They have a private connection, but no official business dealings.

After all, in a place like Mars, if something were to happen that affects trust and reputation, it would be a huge loss.

Gangshan Security Group is roughly at the T1.5 level in terms of influence within the Human Federation. It sells high-end security robots to the outside world, and its most powerful security robot on the surface is the Yama VI, which is at the level eight limit.

Of course, under normal circumstances, ordinary people can only buy Yama Type II at most, officials or super-rich people can buy Yama Type IV, and Yama Type VI can only be purchased by super-officials or super-rich people who are themselves psionicists.

After all, the Yama VI is the normal level 8 boundary in this universe. In its explosive state, its total output per second is about seven and a half times the gravitational binding energy of Mars. That's why it is said that it can be purchased rather than bought; it belongs to the category of having a price but no market.

"A trillion Yama VI robots..." Mu Kange's perception told him this number, letting him know the powerful security capital of Gangshan Security Group. As for those psionic powerhouses, he couldn't say for sure.

The potential of the Neap race is far inferior to that of humans, a race with an innate upper limit of three tiers, so their clandestine activities within the security group are understandable.

Mu Kange stood quietly outside the headquarters of Gangshan Security Group. Not long after, a butler-type security robot came out and invited him inside.

Gangshan Security Group's facilities are filled with a blend of natural and technological aesthetics. The walls and other structures are made of microscopic robots, yet the surfaces are covered with vines, making it look more like the remnants of some ancient high-tech civilization.

"These plants... can instantly kill a regular Level 2 limit like Yama Zero." Mu Kange took a closer look and discovered that these casually growing plants, which seemed to be decorations, actually possessed combat abilities at the level of legendary figures or even demigods in the Mind Sea Universe.

"Mr. Resurrection Sword Demon, please come this way." The butler-type security robot led Mu Kange to the door of the reception room, opened the door, and bowed to let him walk inside. It was just a robot, merely showing the way.

Mu Kange shrugged and strode inside. A manager from Gangshan Security Group was already waiting for him there, and it seemed that Ling Hao had made arrangements in advance, as the manager was very welcoming.

"I've long admired your name, Mr. Resurrection Sword Demon. May I ask what brings you to our company?" The manager warmly greeted Mu Kange, and the table was laden with various delicacies and drinks.

Mu Kange tilted his head and said, "I heard that your group has been getting close to the people of the Neyap civilization?"

"Oh?" The supervisor, concealing his surprise, countered, "The Neap civilization's differences from ours are less than a third; contact wouldn't attract official attention, would it?"

The universe is a large society. People of different races, cultures, and stances have different laws. Therefore, the Human Federation has made a rough division of other civilizations based on the foundation of its own civilization.

For example, people in civilization A think it's normal to use enemy corpses as fuel, but people in civilization B think it's wasteful because they use enemy corpses directly as military rations.

Then Civilization C thought Civilization B was cruel, but Civilization B retorted: "What? Didn't your ancestors evolve from a primitive, hunter-gatherer era? This is our tradition. Besides, we're not eating our own kind, so what's so cruel about it?"

This is the difference brought about by different races, cultures, and stances. Even the laws designed by the Starsea Community cannot satisfy all civilizations.

It's too difficult to have a unified moral standard. In the end, there is only one standard, which is universally recognized as cruelty throughout the entire starry sky: the destruction of one's own compatriots, one's mother's people, and one's motherland.

Crimes committed against individual fellow citizens are merely minor acts of cruelty; crimes committed against the entire mother nation are major acts of cruelty; and defaming and tarnishing its heroes is the greatest crime against one's own civilization.

Because history and culture are the soul of a civilization, this is the most basic respect for intelligent beings. Those who cannot understand this are called barbarians.

The Human Federation can only roughly classify civilizations based on their cultures. Those with less than one-third differences from its own are considered civilizations that can be freely contacted, those with more than one-third differences require reporting, and those with more than two-thirds differences will be listed as objects of observation.

Because this melting pot called the Star Community, the exchange between various races and the collision of various cultures, ideas, and technologies will have a significant impact on them, and even assimilate them.

Therefore, while each civilization opens up some planets, it will inevitably preserve others. These preserved planets are the pure lands of that civilization, responsible for inheriting and nurturing their own culture and technology, and containing laws that conform to their own customs.

The area is open to commerce and communication, and members of all Star Ocean Communities can freely enter and exit. The law is based on the public law of the Star Ocean Community.

Reservations prohibit the entry of outside civilizations, allowing only their own race to live there. The preservation of traditions and the two complement each other, being open without being conquered, and learning from each other without becoming different.

"Yes, contact with the Neap civilization wouldn't attract much attention, but what if the Neap civilization came over aggressively to start a fight?" Mukange said calmly.

The manager of Gangshan Security Group frowned and asked, "What's going on now?"
