You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

The flames of lost imperial civilizations scattered across the sea of ​​stars were felt.

Humanity still has great civilizations that are still alive.

Moreover, there is a powerful deity protecting them—no, there is another power descending upon them.

hum!

The iconic echoing sound of the valley announced its arrival, and everyone in Xiayi looked up. Yes, it was all too familiar; it was the great being who had arrived as promised, returning once again after ten years.

Sure enough, a hole appeared in the sky, revealing the starry sky, including the colorful chaotic light of the subspace.

The material universe and the subspace are intertwined, and are stable and pure.

This single glimpse was enough to stabilize the minds and enhance the power of countless psionicists.

Their souls were protected.

At the same time, Feng Tianyin also took the initiative to release her spiritual energy to respond. In the past, she had always passively waited for the Heavenly Dao, but this time she took the initiative to transmit the scene here.

Whoosh!

The High Priest's psychic signal resounded throughout the entire subspace.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she completed a large-scale missionary leap, reaching her peak the moment the rosy light enveloped her. In an instant, countless beings in the starry sea glimpsed a corner of the ceremony and learned of the rise of a great civilization.

"This is simply outrageous."

The evil gods won't suffer in silence. It's one thing if they only attack Terra and the surrounding areas, but what if they attack the entire warp?

Thus, the four forces began to actively isolate the external influence of the psionic signal and transmit a counterforce.

boom!

The clash between the two sides triggered a massive explosion in subspace, which even penetrated into the material universe. Feng Tianyin's body trembled, but she immediately felt warmth coming from behind her.

The projector caught her just in time.

Xia He had just arrived when she saw the little robot doing something amazing and was amazed.

"Your Majesty, I am severely exhausted and have no strength left."

Without any pretense, Feng Tianyin tilted her head and fell down, causing her to sigh and pick her up in her arms. The latter immediately curled up in her arms and revealed a smug smile.

A smooth little combo, a quick and clever move, and I was unexpectedly carried in a princess carry, which made me feel even safer than described in the database.

There was a sense of weightlessness, yet the heavens seemed to be supporting them, creating an atmosphere that was both unsettling and reassuring.

No one in this world can hurt you.

Xia He smiled faintly, her tone leaving no room for doubt, her words carrying the weight of imperial authority.

This is true.

The rejection from the evil gods earlier didn't cause any real impact. Even if it was transmitted, it wouldn't shake Feng Tianyin. It was just that the child was busy collecting treasures and even lingered in his arms, refusing to get down.

"Your Majesty, how did you feel about the broadcast? Did you sense an increase in the power of faith?"

“Well done, the parish has expanded several times over, and it’s still growing.”

"After all, it can be considered a kind of infection."

While Feng Tianyin made the announcement with great pride, she also felt a little conflicted.

"The methods are not important. The key is that you have indeed given those remote border areas the opportunity to resist the contamination of the clans, and they have also become the territory of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Continue like this, and then you can launch a great expedition to take over these dioceses in one go."

From Xia He's perspective, the religious map is expanding rapidly. Although it is gray and cannot be operated for the time being, the hazy outline is very clear.

They actually submitted in secret.

Chapter 201 Claims (6K)

What a vast religious landscape!

During the turn rotation, the Civilization Evolution game will refresh a large amount of information, and will present it in as much detail as possible.

Various notification messages appeared before Xia He's eyes.

Her perspective had shifted from a typical terrain map to a starry sky view, with a vast star field tinged with the colors of the Heavenly Dao Sect, signifying that it belonged to the Empire on a religious level.

Even if not completely.

But they still yearn for the empire, and given time, they can quickly build up their fighting strength by taking over.

Moreover, some of these civilizations possessed technology that was no less advanced than, or even more advanced than, that of the empire. They still admired the High Priest and were very interested in the successors of the lost empire.

The so-called "inheritor" was clearly fabricated by Feng Tianyin.

Then again.

Isn't it a fact that deities can directly interfere with the spatiotemporal information of the past, present, and future? The fact that the high priest can associate himself with the name of a lost empire is a matter of prestige; even after its decline and destruction, his grave can still be dug up and he dug up.

Xia He snapped out of her thoughts and said, "Aren't you coming down? Do you want me to hold you while I play this round?"

Feng Tianyin turned her head away and murmured, "It doesn't seem like it's impossible."

She stretched out her arms like a koala and clung to the tall projection.

"Whatever you like."

The explosive proselytizing effect just now brought in a flood of notifications. If it weren't for my significantly improved mental strength, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep up. In any case, the temple's higher-ups' plan has been a great success.

The Heavenly Ritual was not actually fully transmitted; only fragmented pieces of the psychic signal were transmitted before it was blocked.

But that was enough; we exceeded our expectations.

This directly changed Xia He's initial plan and gave her new inspiration.

"...Now it seems that the benefit of armed missionary work is no longer needed, because conventional missionary work is more efficient. Therefore, we should increase investment in military technology, and religion should only be an auxiliary tool."

that's it.

There's no need to change the long-term national policy; it should remain unchanged.

[Long-term national policy: Globalization]

[Description: As the global market takes shape, it's time to further advance capital exchange. The Great Qian Empire has taken on the important task of building a new era. Globalization is inevitable, and we will connect every civilization here.]

Even beyond Terra's own borders, this voice will penetrate the warp, illuminating an even more brilliant fusion of ancient civilizations.

[Effects: Increases efficiency in promoting globalization by 10%, trade efficiency by 10%, research points by 5%, and political influence points by 5%]

It acts on both Terra and the Warp, making it ideal for projecting influence.

Xia He also judged that Terra was lacking a war of unification.

Letting everyone adapt to modern life in advance can reduce resistance in the future, so why not?

The remaining part is military affairs.

Unlike previous eras where military strategies related to psionics were almost nonexistent, this time, strategies related to psionics have emerged for the first time. It's a natural progression of the times.

Militarization of Psionicists

[Description: In an era where the extraordinary are becoming increasingly active, our army is required to adapt to new changes. The Empire has undergone a long period of accumulation in psionic technology, and it is time for these gifted individuals to join our long journey. The Great Qian needs your strength.]

[Effect: Psionicist Military Experience +15%, Psionic Research Points +15%]

Xia He chose it without hesitation. Today's decision was to pave the way for a future psionic army, which would eventually become the main force.

Then we can build a large canned food army.

This is not a hypothetical scenario, but a reality that is currently unfolding; the Empire has related project plans in place:

Space Marine Project

The aim is to recruit powerful psionicists into the army and to mass-produce and popularize this talent, which integrates a series of cutting-edge achievements such as genetic modification, subspace psionics, and equipment technology.

Progress is slow at present, but once the technology matures, we can start mass production of troops.

The priesthood led by Feng Tianyin never forgot to draw power from the subspace, and even diluted the authority of the evil god, all in order to build an army in the future.

She has no respect for demons who have been corrupted by human corruption.

They're just cannon fodder.

Conquering the subspace doesn't rely on those human-demon monsters; they're just temporarily used as pawns to annoy the enemy.

[Religious Strategy: Missionary Work in the Warp]

[Description: The Empire's continuous flow of faith into this chaotic and abnormal land has finally paid off. We are gradually taking over parishes, and it's time to intensify our efforts and press on.]

[Effect: Missionary influence range +20%, parish conversion rate +8%]

While the numerical values ​​may seem small, their strength lies in their focused emphasis: a significant boost to the missionaries of the Great Qian Empire.

Xia He saw this as an opportunity.

The Empire does not lack the ability to conduct missionary work in the Warp; what it lacks is the distance.

Since the technology for crossing subspace has not yet been unlocked, the only option is to significantly increase the influence of a missionary, achieving two goals at once and still spreading the power of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Moreover, the inner sanctum has accumulated experience over the years, making it even more powerful.

The last item simply needs to be combined with the previous items as usual.

[Cultural Strategy: Creating Claims]

[Description: The Great Qian Empire is attempting to establish a connection with the Lost Empire through large-scale "research," and this is not unique to it. Other ancient interstellar regimes are also making claims, as are new "beacons of human civilization" and "heavenly Dao religious states," which will have a profound impact...]

[Effect: Increases regional cohesion by 10%, claims creation efficiency by 10%, and political influence by 5%]

Thanks to Feng Tianyin's tireless efforts in modifying the information, this top-tier policy card was finally obtained:

claim.

On the surface, the description of its effect is not strong, but in reality, it is quite extraordinary.

It allows the Great Qian Dynasty to skip the long assimilation period and seamlessly transition to rule over a region under the same claim, which, combined with religious policy cards, will be incredibly smooth.

Xia He has decided to keep these two religious and cultural strategies in place.

"Consider it as a convenience for your future expeditions."

Feng Tianyin immediately replied, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Rest assured, I am already making preparations. The next era can begin gradually, and I will try my best to integrate the Terra world in this round."

"The next round will be the information age. Your research progress is too fast; it's practically dragging down the technology tree."
