silence

The atmosphere among the three was strange.

Previously, they thought the Dragonflight civilization was just a vicious wolf.

But now the facts are telling them that the Xiaolong civilization is not a wolf.

It was a giant dragon.

This was beyond their expectations.

This also caused significant problems with their original expectations.

"So what should we do now?" a leader of a civilization asked.

We need to think of a solution.

Otherwise, we'll have to wait until the Xiaolong civilization truly grows to a terrifying level.

Then, when the Beast Alliance and the Golden Eye Mutual Aid Association are destroyed...

"Then we are even less of a match for the Wyvern Civilization." Another civilization leader said in a deep voice.

President Korki thought for a moment and said, "The only way is at a certain point in time."

We launched an attack on the Xiaolong civilization.

Catch them off guard.

And this time point is very important.

If we acted too early.

The Beast Alliance and the Golden Eyes Mutual Aid Association are still around, but we still can't sit at the table.

If you act too late.

The Wyvern civilization has already swallowed up these trial civilizations; we probably wouldn't be a match for them on our own.

What time?

This has become a difficult problem for the leaders of these three forces.

"Currently, our three forces have a total of nearly 200,000 interstellar warships, including nearly 2,000 T4 interstellar warships."

But this order of magnitude is still far from enough.

Let's not even talk about comparing it to the JF-17 civilization.

Compared to the Beast Alliance and the Golden Eyes Mutual Aid Association alone, they are no match.

Therefore, several conditions must be met at this point in time.

First!

That means our military power must, to some extent, surpass the Beast Alliance and the Golden Eyes Mutual Aid Association.

second!

We need to have a sufficient understanding of the JF-17 civilization.

We need to know exactly how many star systems they have, their coordinates, how many fleets they have, and how many starship factories they have!

The other two civilization leaders nodded in agreement.

The president of the Korki civilization pondered for a moment, then squinted and said, "As for your concerns, the Xiaolong civilization has grown to the point where we cannot destroy it."

Then we can assume that the first condition is met.

We directly announced the existence of the Xiaolong civilization and all intelligence information to the public.

In this way...

What we will receive is a joint attack by the five trial civilizations on the Wraith Dragon Civilization.

Such chaotic fighting presents an opportunity for us to seize victory amidst the chaos!

Hearing about this plan...

The other two civilization leaders expressed their agreement.

While this plan doesn't guarantee they'll win the trial of the gods, it's certainly a much better chance of winning than doing nothing.

Just as the three of them exchanged a glance and couldn't help but chuckle.

Suddenly, the expressions on all three people's faces changed.

"You... also received it?" The president of the Korki civilization looked at the other two civilization leaders with surprise.

"Yes, I received it."

"I never expected such a big change to happen."

It seems our plans will have to be changed.

"Let's each go back and discuss this," the president of the Korki civilization said with a serious expression.

The meeting came to an abrupt end.

At almost the same time, all other trial civilizations seemed to have pressed the pause button. Even the battles that were still in progress were stopped in various ways, and those that could not be stopped reduced the intensity of the battles.

Because all the leaders of the trial civilizations received a message.

Dragon Civilization, Dragon Palace Starport, Supreme Conference Room.

Zhao Chen looked at all the senior executives in front of him with a serious expression.

"A newly obtained rule."

One year later.

The entire star system where the Trials of God are located will change.

A setting called "Safe Zone" will appear.

Areas outside the safe zone will be subjected to fierce attacks from various natural disaster races!

No one knows how big this safe zone is.

"And every year, the entire safe zone will shrink until the Trial of the Gods ends!" Zhao Chen said solemnly.

"This... battle royale?" Annie, who loves playing games, exclaimed in astonishment.

Everyone instinctively looked at Annie.

"Haven't you guys played this kind of game before?"

It's about being on an island with resources and weapons, where you deploy a hundred warriors who can collect weapons to improve their combat capabilities.

After a set time, a safe zone will appear on the map, along with a countdown timer.

The safe zone will gradually shrink, and the area outside the safe zone is called the poison circle. People inside the poison circle will gradually be poisoned and eventually die.

However, the safe zone shrinks every so often.

Until the area is less than one square meter.

The person who survives to the end is the winner of this game.

"I'm really good at this game!" Annie said, raising her head.

"Is this the game you always say you get eliminated as soon as you land?" the person next to him added bluntly.

"Cough cough cough...that was only occasionally, only occasionally..." Annie's cheeks flushed, but she still stubbornly insisted.

"In that case..."

Then we will have to change our previous plans.

What if our galaxy is not within the safe zone after the first safe zone appears?

"Should we abandon the existing star system?" Zhao Chen said in a deep voice.

The people at the scene fell silent instantly.

Anne said instinctively, "Of course we should evacuate."

In the game, being outside the safe zone is very dangerous.

"But the problem is this isn't a game; there are hundreds of billions or trillions of people living in those galaxies."

"That's their home!" someone said, unable to bear it.

Annie fell silent instantly.

She also realized how cruel this matter was.

“From a practical point of view, evacuating and abandoning the star systems outside the safe zone is the best option.” Secretary Barbara looked at Zhao Chen with a complicated expression.

However, this is a decision that Emperor Xiaolong must make.

Zhao Chen remained silent for several breaths.

give up?

Even knowing it's irrational, they still insist on sticking to it.

Zhao Chen clenched his fist, just as he was about to speak.

Chu Xuan immediately said, "We can prepare two battle plans."

The first plan is an evacuation plan. We will try to modify the personnel and valuable production tools, take everything that can be taken with us, and relocate them to a safe star system.

The second plan is to defend these star systems to the death and fight the enemy to the very end!

Although this is very risky, if we can really withstand the enemy's attacks, we will have a larger galactic territory and more resources.

However, both plans need to be considered based on the actual circumstances.

Chu Xuan's two plans left Zhao Chen a way out.

Zhao Chen took a deep breath and looked at Chu Xuan and Barbara respectively: "Chu Xuan, you are in charge of formulating the battle plan."

Barbara, you're in charge of developing the evacuation plan.

Each galaxy needs to be defined.

We need to calculate how long it would take to evacuate all personnel and evacuable industrial facilities from this galaxy!

"Yes!" Chu Xuan and Barbara said in unison.

"It seems that this trial of the gods is really coming to an end." Zhao Chen sensed that the most intense moment of this trial of the gods was about to arrive.

And then the next year.

Almost all the trial civilizations abandoned their external expansion and began to prepare for war at all costs, building interstellar warships on a massive scale.

At the same time, we are preparing for the major changes that are about to occur.

A year is almost over.

Zhao Chen looked at the documents handed to him by his secretary, Barbara.

This describes the situation of various forces within this year.

Because of the impending catastrophe, the Xiaolong civilization remained relatively peaceful for the next year and did not attack the trial civilizations again.

"The Beast Alliance still consists of three trial civilizations, and the number of star systems it possesses has increased by thirty-three."

The number of active interstellar warships is currently said to be 250,000, 40,000 more than two and a half years ago, but the growth rate is not as fast as they originally planned.

There are 15,000 T4 starships and the remaining 235,000 T3 starships!

It should be noted that their original plan was to have 300,000 interstellar warships within these three years, including 20,000 T4 interstellar warships.

Our previous attacks and harassment against them were indeed quite effective.

Secretary Barbara pointed to the information and data of the Beast Alliance.

"If it weren't for this year, we wouldn't have continued to harass them."

"They will never have this year of peaceful development," Zhao Chen said helplessly.

It can be said that the change in the rules of the Trial of the Gods disrupted many of their original plans.

"The Golden Eyes Mutual Aid Association still consists of five trial civilizations and currently has forty star systems."

It currently possesses over 700,000 interstellar warships.

This included 3,000 T4 starships, 400,000 T3 starships, and 200,000 to 300,000 T2 starships.

They originally had no intention of producing T2-class interstellar warships.

However, due to the sudden change in the rules of the Trial of God.

They began a large-scale procurement of T2-class interstellar warships from civilian sources, aiming to maximize the size and number of their fleet before any unforeseen events.

"The Three Giants Star Alliance is still three trial civilizations, possessing twenty-seven star systems."

The total number is 250,000 starships, including 2,500 T4 starships, 200,000 T3 starships, and 50,000 T2 starships.

The Crimson Flame Federation has four trial civilizations and twenty-seven star systems.

The total number is 230,000 interstellar warships.

This included 2,000 T4 starships, 160,000 T3 starships, and 70,000 T2 starships.

Even without considering us, the other side of deep space still consists of three trial civilizations and twenty-three star systems.

The current total number is 250,000 interstellar warships.

This included 2,000 T4 starships, 150,000 T3 starships, and 50,000 T2 starships.

Secretary Barbara then proceeded to describe the current combat capabilities of these trial civilizations.

She then accessed the information about the Xiaolong civilization.

"We currently have a total of 250,000 interstellar warships."

This includes 10,000 T4 starships and 240,000 T3 starships.

We organized these interstellar warships into eight legion fleets, each legion fleet consisting of 30,000 interstellar warships.

The remaining 20,000 interstellar warships were organized into the Sentinel Force fleet.

It serves two purposes: as a reserve fleet and to protect your safety.

Secretary Barbara finished explaining the combat capabilities of the Wyvern civilization.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand interstellar warships." Zhao Chen squinted and thought for a while.

"With our current fleet strength, if we were to deploy it among these trial civilizations..."

A one-on-one fight with the Beast Alliance is absolutely no problem.

However, the problem is that there are other trial civilizations, including the Golden Eyes Mutual Aid Association.

Even the relationship between us and the other side of deep space has become delicate in the past year.

Didn't you say before that their starships were trying to find out the coordinates of our star system?

The coordinates of three galaxies have now been suspected to have been revealed.

There can only be one winner in the trials of God.

We previously displayed overwhelming combat power.

They have begun to fear our presence.

There's a high probability they'll turn against us at some point.

We need to be prepared.

"In the future, we are very likely to become enemies with all the trial civilizations!" Zhao Chen had anticipated the worst-case scenario.

Marshal Chu Xuan said from the side, "That's right, this situation was entirely foreseeable."

I even made relevant combat preparations.

However, the change in the rules of the Trial of God has made the future highly unpredictable.

No one can predict what will happen on the battlefield in the future.

Zhao Chen sighed, "Now all we can do is wait."

This rule change directly disrupted the original order of the game.

The last moments.

All the trial civilizations fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone is waiting, waiting.

finally!

Suddenly, a star map appeared in the minds of all the leaders of the trial civilizations.

Zhao Chen opened his eyes and, without saying a word, opened the interstellar map and drew the star map that appeared in his mind on it.

He drew a circle.

Originally, there were nearly two hundred star systems in this star field, but now half of them have appeared on the outer edge of this circle.

"Is this the safe zone?" Secretary Barbara asked, looking at the circle drawn by His Majesty Zhao Chen.

The first thing everyone looked at was the nine star systems controlled by the Xiaolong civilization.

Actually, it should be said to be ten, because the chaotic galaxy from before has been basically cleaned up.

However, they learned that the Trials of God had changed.

Therefore, in this star system, the Xiaolong civilization did not build any fixed buildings; instead, they used only interstellar mining ships and interstellar industrial ships.

We can develop the resources here, but we can also evacuate at any time.

Therefore, even if he were to abandon this galaxy, Zhao Chen would not feel any heartache.

“Damn it, we have three star systems outside the safe zone!” Secretary Barbara said, frowning.

Three star systems, accounting for one-third.

These are the sixth, seventh, and ninth star systems of the Xiaolong.

In comparison, the Xiaolong civilization was actually quite lucky.

The most unfortunate party should be the Crimson Flame Federation, because only seven of the twenty-seven star systems owned by the Crimson Flame Federation are within the safe zone.

It has the most star systems outside the safe zone among all the trial civilizations!

Looking at the new map, Zhao Chen said in a deep voice, "Chaos is about to begin."
