Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

You should know, at the pinnacle of their civilization, there were millions of Chosen Ones, and there wasn't even a single Mythical one!

Moreover, this Talent was so powerful, so dominating!

Even now, they dared not recall what they had just felt, for the mere thought could cause their entire sense of self to collapse, even twist into a servant or puppet who would madly offer up themselves, offer up everything!

This wasn't because the other party's Talent was so malevolent, but simply because the difference in status was so great that they couldn't bear it!

Having signed a soul contract with such an entity, even though they were still weak, the nature of things had completely changed.

A hint of rebellion could bring unbearable consequences.

"Erin is the one who walks the Path of Life, isn't she?" Shen Hao was at this time further discerning the differences between the two souls, and spoke indifferently, "Interesting, I don't sense any love for life in your emotions, on the contrary, your personality is very cold. Is your Talent the Purple Level 'King of Magic'?

On the other hand, Erin, who walks the path of death, seems gentler, with the Purple Level Talent 'Weapon Master'?"

The Talents really complement each other.

One close-combat, one long-range.

Though their characters deviate somewhat from expectations, it's not incomprehensible.

Considering their own strong Extraordinary Talents, having once been Level 40 warriors, plus having dual souls which is almost equal to two Contractors, this Golden Legendary assessment is actually not an exaggeration.

"Stand up," Shen Hao said to Erin Ellie, who was still prostrate on the ground, "I forgive you, Ellie, for your disrespect just now, but now you are my Contractors, and everything you do from now on must serve me and my civilization."

"Yes." Relief flooded through both of their hearts.

At this moment, their greatest worry was undoubtedly being erased from consciousness.

Although a puppet without a self is naturally inferior to one with a self, a tyrant may not care, and they had no power to resist.

Ellie even felt very guilty.

It was merely because of her own words that they had almost brought disaster upon themselves.

However, Erin was comforting her in her heart: "At least, we have a bigger chance to achieve our wish, don't we?"

That's right.

Colors began to emerge in Ellie's heart as well.

Although they still didn't know what this civilization that had summoned them was like, such powerful Talents really gave them a greater chance!

To witness the end of the Civilization Trial with their own eyes was the only reason they had chosen to cling to life!

"Dong Gong." At this time, Shen Hao was contacting Dong Gong, briefly describing the situation with the building and the Contractors, then commanded, "Have the Analysis Department list some location suggestions for where to place the building, and send some experts to teach them language and basic knowledge."

"Yes." Dong Gong quickly went to arrange things.

In times when a Civilization Trial might emerge at any moment, any form of power was very important!

Developing technology, popularizing Transcendent abilities, and finding Pocket World Blessed Lands all served to enhance strength!

And naturally, the current situation was no exception!

The Mage Tower and a strong individual from another civilization could both provide significant help!

Especially this individual, who possessed a Golden Legendary level!

Even after learning this news, the high-level officials of the Global United Front mostly showed joy, and many were even eager to meet this "Angel" and learn as much as possible about the Civilization Trial and other civilizations.

Even though most of the relevant knowledge was locked, isn't it said to be unlocked as one's level increases?

"What you need to do next is to familiarize yourselves with our civilization, and to level up your status," Shen Hao said, turning to them again, tossing over a pile of resources.

White Level 15...

Erin and Ellie both felt a touch of surprise as they received the resources.

If it was a second Trial, this level would be a bit too low, not quite matching the performance of a Mythical Talent, but if it was the first Trial, then it was too high!

In their own civilization, during the first Trial, the highest they ever unlocked was the White Level 12 marketplace.

But they would know soon.

They began to look forward to learning about this civilization.

At this time, Shen Hao was not idle either.

He had loaded the VIP2 Marketplace External.

Just like with VIP1, there weren't many eye-catching changes, but once the VIP marketplace was opened, one could see that there were three more items inside!

And among these three items, one was even the unlock permission for a Blue Level 14 item!

"A higher VIP level means not only three more items in each refresh, but also better quality," Shen Hao chose to unlock it directly.

He had plenty of points, and most of the Blue Quality items held considerable utility.

Not to mention a Blue Level 14 one.

This was a piece of protective equipment, just right for enhancing the safety of some exceptional Chosen Ones.

"If the hiatus can be a bit longer, then just the refreshes in the VIP marketplace alone can be quite a significant help," Shen Hao had actually asked Erin and Ellie about the duration of the hiatus already.

But their answer was "uncertain."

The length of the hiatus varied.

Sometimes it was long, sometimes it was short.

Trials always come when civilizations are least expecting them.

At that moment, Shen Hao focused his attention on the most critical option.

——The Chosen One's profession!

The chance to draw a Mythical exclusive profession just once, and the one with the highest compatibility at that, meant that for Shen Hao, one draw would be enough!

There was no need to hesitate; he had been at Level 10 for some time now.

It was time to decide on his Chosen One profession!

"Load the External, then match!"

Shen Hao directly loaded the external and proceeded with his first profession match!

As one hundred million points were spent, the profession matching interface began to swirl.

A red text appeared on the interface!

[Profession: Emperor]

[Quality: Red Exclusive!]

[Rejoice, for this is the luck of a civilization! It is also the pinnacle of being the Chosen One! The Emperor is your profession! This is not some god lofty and aloof! Nor is it an identity shaped by a false political power structure! It is the true Controller and Leader of civilization!

As the Emperor, you will gain supreme power as the civilization grows stronger! Civilization will also gain an invincible future from your greatness!]

[Note 1: I am the civilization!]

[Note 2: A civilization is neither a state fixed to a certain piece of land nor a Species fixed to certain creatures.] Enjoy new adventures at empire

[Note 3: There is only one red exclusive profession, with no Pioneers, no successors, everything on this path must be pioneered by you alone, but no one can predict your Potential, your future.]

[Transfer Conditions:]

[1. Control Type Mythical Talent]

[2. At least three Golden Legendary Abilities, required to be: Sensing Type, Transmission, and Enhancement]

[3. You are the Strongest of the entire civilization]

"This is the profession with the highest compatibility for me?" Shen Hao murmured as he looked through the content of the introduction.

He had thought of the various Chosen One professions that might appear before, but considering the uniqueness of the red color, he knew it would definitely not be a common profession like "Mage" or "Warrior."

He even wondered if it might just be [Sovereign], which could also seem like a profession.

But the actual result was indeed beyond his expectations.

Emperor!

Clearly, this was not the Emperor as commonly understood; the introduction also made it clear that this profession did not require recognition from a political structure, nor did it require the actual status of an Emperor, but it would undoubtedly have everything an Emperor has. More importantly, the subsequent content seemed to describe the features.

The stronger the civilization is, the stronger he becomes; the stronger he becomes, the stronger the civilization becomes!

Although he still didn't know the specific manifestations, Shen Hao was already thrilled.

This was simply too fitting for the Civilization Trial!

Shen Hao's external, even his Talent, his growth, were all based on the Civilization Trial, without which he might still be able to live somewhere but could never expect to grow so rapidly and would lose greater developmental Potential.

Not to mention that from the beginning, he had been determined to lead the civilization in winning the Trial and never thought of abandoning civilization to become a "strong man" who lost everything.

In this light, the compatibility of this profession with him was indeed very high!

Whether it was his Talent, his character, or his pursuits!

"The external really is powerful," Shen Hao could only sigh with emotion at last and was somewhat impatient to transfer professions.

But of the three conditions, the first and the third were already met; only the second one remained gray.

"Three Legendary Ability Balls, each with their own conditions, and it's a good thing I have the [Ability Ball Furnace External] too, or the odds would be much lower." Shen Hao realized the difficulty of a Mythical exclusive profession.

He wondered how many of the countless civilizations undergoing the Trial could achieve it.

Without giving it too much thought, he directly opened the Ability Ball Furnace interface.

He had tried it once before: four thousand eight hundred White Ability Balls gave only a 0.6% chance of producing a Golden Legendary Ability.

Such odds were incredibly low.

The external required a minimum of a five percent chance to lock in.

Shen Hao tried it, and it took nearly forty thousand White Ability Balls to ensure a Golden Legendary Ability with the help of the external!

One could see how rare the Golden Legendary Abilities were.

Even though Shen Hao still had a total of twenty million and four hundred thousand White Ability Balls left, with these odds, he could at most gamble fifty times.

Getting the specific category of Ability Ball was still not a sure thing, and the Ability Balls had other uses too.

Not to mention that other Chosen Ones needed Ability Balls to enhance their strength; just getting the Ability Balls and then upgrading them was quite a drain.

However—

Shen Hao tried tossing in the Blue Ability Balls.

"There really is a loophole" his eyes lit up.
