You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

Just like the naming of "Central Earth".

Both Feng Tianyin and the people of the empire firmly believe that the true representative of civilization is right under their feet. This unprecedented war outside the region has further boosted their confidence and enhanced the empire's prestige.

The war, which spanned two oceans, lasted for three and a half years, and involved half the world, came to an end.

It marked the end of the era of barbaric development during the colonial expansion period, and the spheres of influence of various countries effectively formed invisible boundaries.

The seeds of new conflicts in the new era have been sown.

Xia He was naturally paying attention to the development of the war and had guessed that it would be included in the event's effects.

【hint】

The signing of the "New World Agreement" document, which was the subject of a pop-up ad incident, is regarded by historians as the first achievement of modern diplomacy.

[It innovatively introduced a series of new concepts that will undoubtedly continue to inspire future generations of political scientists.]

[From this point on, a document significant in defining the global landscape was finalized, establishing the Great Qian Empire's dominance over the north and south of the Central Plains and the New World. Just as the High Priest had said, "We will build an empire on which the sun never sets," it had, in fact, taken shape.]

The map of a superpower has emerged.

[Effect: Increases political influence by 10% and trade efficiency by 15% per turn]

Very high praise.

It's rare that "Civilization Evolution" directly identifies a major event.

Although the close interconnectedness of the world makes it easier for friction between countries to lead to major events, this war is still significant. This is a long-awaited large-scale war for the Great Qian Army, with a main force of 60 men, but the actual number of troops involved is estimated to be over one million.

Only the Industrial Age could achieve this.

It can't be just ordinary industrialization; it has to be an empire that has completed its second industrialization and developed internal combustion engines and electricity.

It demonstrated a new form of warfare to the world through a war fought over an extremely long distance.

The long-term national policy that Xia He initially chose, namely [Military Strategy: Modernizing the Army], proved highly effective and did not go to waste.

There is nowhere in the world I cannot go.

The war progressed faster than she expected, which also demonstrated that the Great Qian Empire's military projection capabilities were unparalleled in the world. It could launch a large-scale war from thousands of miles away, so there was no place it couldn't reach. Anyone would have to weigh the terrible consequences of opposing it.

Didn't the coalition force of 50 still collapse?

Every civilization in the world of Terra has experienced the might of the Great Qian Empire.

Military mythology.

Xia He felt that the current Daqian Army had the right feel to it. Indeed, its intimidating aura alone made people hesitant to act against it, effectively reducing the cost of ruling the empire and preventing the need to use the army for everything.

"However, as the saying goes, an arrogant army will surely be defeated, a defeated army will surely be miserable, and a miserable army will surely be victorious."

Military myths are meant to be broken.

If the Daqian army continues to rest on its laurels of victory and let its tactics and equipment gradually decay, that won't work.

Fortunately, both she and Feng Tianyin would always keep an eye on the empire's sharpest weapon.

It will always be sharp.

With the two of us looking after you, it would be hard for you not to become strong.

Of course, that's all in the future. The current Daqian Army is undoubtedly at the forefront of the times, equipped with the strongest weapons and possessing the most advanced tactics. Now, its only task is to garrison troops and maintain order.

Xia He looked out and saw ships leaving the East Coast colonies, carrying large numbers of residents from the Western Continent.

Farewell.

Many who once considered this place their home understand that they will never return. To this day, the Great Qian Empire has never relinquished any territory it has swallowed, maintaining a constant, predatory momentum.

They finally adapted to the new world, but still had to leave their homes.

"The war is over, but my home is gone."

"Why not choose to stay in the New World? After all, the Great Qian didn't kick us out; they respected our choice."

"Forget it, I still can't get used to it."

"Everyone has their own choices, and I will still stay and develop in the land under the rule of Daqian."

People had only two choices: leave or stay. Most chose the former, and the Great Qian Dynasty never interfered. History will reveal the answer, and eventually they will understand.

Her gaze shifted to the microscopic.

As Xia He judged, this colony was actually fortunate because the Great Qian Empire, unlike other colonial powers, did not come to exploit. More accurately, it never had the concept of colonization; its focus was on management.

After the army took over the situation, Xu Xiuwen began to strictly enforce public order.

We must continuously apprehend thieves, robbers, enemy deserters, and other destabilizing elements; we cannot let any of them go, and we must arrest and reform them all.

In times of chaos, harsh measures must be taken.

Of course, simply arresting people won't work. We need to find things for them to do. They'll only cause trouble when they're idle, and they won't have any wild thoughts when they're busy.

The second batch of forces to move in were not the inner palace or scribes, but rather enterprises.

Companies with business in the New World are especially welcome.

For example, the representatives of New Continent Grain Company and Shipping Company were familiar faces that even Xia He remembered. Wu Tong and Nan Wei, two students from Xiayi University back then, have now become representative figures of the overseas business conglomerate, wielding great power and possessing rich experience.

They knew the way very well.

Expanding the business is a simple task; all you need to do is have the company's branches move in one by one.

On the surface, it is related to food and shipping, but in reality it encompasses a wide range of topics.

The management style of the enterprise park was particularly suitable for these arrogant colonists. Thus, military intimidation and enterprise management formed a set of tactics that quickly integrated them into the production system of Daqian.

"That's much more efficient."

Xia He felt there was no need to intervene. All that remained were some bandits, barbarians, and other wild monsters, many of whom were actually transformed from deserters.

Despite the Western Continent Allied Forces' swift retreat, they actually left behind a mess.

Those rebels will eventually need to be dealt with.

"...Anyway, there's nothing crucial left to do; it's just a matter of grinding away the time to run the business."

hum!

An unusual fluctuation appeared in the subspace rift on Lost Island, attracting her attention. At the same time, the members of the Spiritual Abode stationed there to closely monitor the situation also noticed it and immediately began to reinforce the seal:

"Is it the negative emotions surrounding war that have fueled activity in the warp?"

"It's not that simple; it's more like some kind of signal."

"It's a response. Someone is responding to the High Priest's preaching broadcast, but it's too muffled. It's probably only because of the activity in the warp that it can be received."

"It's too damaged to be deciphered; the information is distorted."

"Don't let your guard down. Report this to the authorities. This could very well be a conspiracy by an evil god."

The people of Daqian were still too wary.

They were very experienced in the subspace, but Xia He believed it was safe, because the Lost Empire ruins themselves had the power to filter out pollution, not to mention the sealing formula left by Zhuang Qing.

It was Feng Tianyin's persistent cosmic broadcasting that worked.

In the later stages of "Civilization Evolution," everyone is busy climbing the technology tree and fighting against evil gods, so there is no dark forest.

After all, the chain of suspicion is related to the efficiency of information transmission, and there is no time difference in subspace.

Instead, we should be wary of the distortions caused by evil gods.

boom!

As Xia He had predicted, the evil god's twisting power interfered with the signal, and many of the Familias, driven by warlike emotions, crowded into the subspace passage. Almost simultaneously, Zhuang Qing's mental projection descended, and a single bombardment instantly vaporized the Familias in the front row.

"The Great Sage has arrived! That's wonderful! We're saved!"

"Leave the demons to me; make sure to guard the Lost Island space passage."

While the Lost Island ruins were bustling with activity, Xia He was also busy.

She didn't directly intervene, but she blocked the potential, silent infiltration of the curse's corruption, which already contained a trace of an evil god's aura.

"The restrictions on psionic powers are getting fewer and fewer."

In a sense, isn't it that Terra's own barriers are weakening, and it's becoming more and more in line with other worlds in the universe that have suffered the same pollution, thus matching its proper level?

The Elo mechanism is taking effect.

However, under her protection, the civilization of Terra still has the strength to fight back.

Just like at this moment, Zhuang Qing and the warriors of the Spiritual Cultivation Academy have formed a solid defensive line that even a demon leading the team cannot break through.

"Humans, go and slaughter in the human world."

"Break through quickly, turn the empire into a torch, and let everything burn."

"Damn psionicists!"

Even though Xia He was hiding in the shadows and didn't actually make a move, the current combat power of Da Qian was enough to easily deal with the intruders. Even powerful demons were defeated one by one by the elite warriors.

This doesn't even include the truly top-tier psionicists, after all, Dai Qingshuang, Song Qingyun, Jiang Bai, and others are also quite formidable.

They even seem to grow younger with age, clearly having mastered the power of life energy.

The spiritual energy it contains is also extraordinary.

Zhuang Qing's command was meticulous and cautious, keeping the demon constantly on the run. Even though the demon possessed command skills comparable to humans, it was completely outmaneuvered.

It won't amount to anything.

They were utterly defeated by the well-prepared Great Qian Empire.

Xia He witnessed a failed invasion, but no one, including herself, felt it was over; it wasn't even the end of the beginning. On the contrary, the advancement of psionic energy in this era would only lead to more frequent incidents and a lack of peace.

Of course, there are opportunities as well.

She traced back to the broadcast response, which was a psionic signal mixed with vague emotions: "Bless you," "Let's survive together in this vast universe," "Hello, unfamiliar civilization," "May you survive the dangers of the warp," etc.

With Feng Tianyin's spiritual energy level, she should have already received it, but unfortunately it was too blurry.

A moment later, Zhuang Qing also deciphered it through the technique.

“Did you hear that?” She replayed the translated version. “There are many comrades fighting against pollution alongside us.”

Civilization is not alone.
