York laughed when he heard what Crimson said.

He was quite familiar with the Red Dragon’s personality, after all. They had known each other for many years.

"It’s not bad, not bad at all."

"Speaking of which, the Pure-blooded Dragon Clan on Dragon Island is actually doing quite well these days."

"If I recall correctly, there should be one hundred and twelve members of the Pure-blooded Dragon Clan now, right?"

One hundred and twelve members meant one hundred and twelve Giant Dragons at or above the Saint Tier.

And now, every single one of the fifteen so-called Dragon Race Elders here had long since stepped into the Demigod Tier.

With the superior Bloodline of the Dragon Race, the Power of these fifteen Elders was already on par with that of ordinary Deities of Weak Divine Power.

"Alright, let’s focus on the important matters. Enough of this idle talk."

"The war between civilizations is clearly imminent. Regardless of whether these three little ones succeed or fail, it won’t be delayed by much."

"We should first hear His Majesty’s thoughts on the matter."

Silver Dragon Camilla interjected at this moment.

Faced with Camilla’s directness, the other Giant Dragons had no objections. They all turned to York with serious expressions.

Hearing this, York’s expression also grew solemn.

He then began to speak.

"In that case, I will tell you everything I know."

"First, according to the information we’ve received from the Divine Favorers Association, the three chosen Civilization Pioneers from the Empire are all of Low Tier strength."

"We know their identities: one Divine Favor Professional, one Intelligent Machinery Industry Student, and one Dragon Descendant from a branch of the Emperor Race’s Bloodline."

"The world they are in is called the Crimson World."

"This world..."

York quickly relayed everything he knew.

As the Giant Dragons present listened to York’s explanation, their expressions, initially stern, gradually relaxed.

"Heh, what a Crimson World. I don’t think the three little ones will have much trouble there in the short term."

"That’s for sure. According to the news sent back by the Divine Favored, the strength of the entire Blood Race in that world is being suppressed by some unknown rules."

"Furthermore, the Human Race there is full of suffering, which makes it convenient for spreading our faith."

"So, next, perhaps once there are enough native believers, the conditions to establish a Star Gate will be met."

"Also, according to the Oracle from the Deities on the side of the Divine Favored, even if the conditions for the Star Gate aren’t met, the number of personnel our world can send over will increase, and the restrictions will naturally lessen over time."

"This is truly great news!"

The Black Dragon looked quite pleased. It was clear he was eager to go to another world and test his Power.

"Based on the information we have so far, the situation is indeed favorable."

"But don’t forget the peculiarities of this world. In short, we must be fully prepared."

"For now, we don’t need to concern ourselves with matters of the Divine Realm. It’s not something we can interfere with, after all."

"But for the Empire’s part, I believe Your Majesty needs to have more people begin training in Virtual Reality. Of course, I will also have our Dragon Race increase their sparring sessions."

Amos suddenly said in a low voice.

"Regarding the Empire, I do indeed have a plan."

"The Divine Favored can obtain real-time information on the Blood Race. Therefore, the Empire can have Intelligent Brain Anita adjust the opponents in Virtual Reality accordingly."

"So, you need not worry on that front."

York said, his expression full of confidence.

"Therefore, if you hear any news of one of the Majesties awakening, please inform me at once."

"That way, I can make the necessary arrangements more quickly."

"Of course."

"..."

The meeting was brief, and not much was discussed.

However, it indirectly set the entire populace of the Star Empire into a flurry of activity.

On one hand, the Empire would immediately begin more frequent training missions.

At the same time, in the outer Star Sea, the three ’Death Star’ Colonies established by the Star Empire in the Karte World would accelerate the production of various war machines.

By now, the Star Empire had already made significant breakthroughs in the field of Intelligent Machinery Industry.

The Empire had already constructed over twenty prototype Superconducting Starships enhanced with Magic Seals.

Although the stability of some of these Starships still needed improvement.

But as large-scale weapons of destruction, the main cannons of the Magic Starships were more than adequate.

As for more refined unmanned devices and smaller killing machines, the Empire also had a large stockpile.

All of it was in preparation for a war between civilizations.

Clearly, the Star Empire had long been making all necessary preparations.

Once the war began, the Star Empire would let other civilizations experience the full might of the Magic Industry they had developed over the past one hundred and twenty years.

Meanwhile.

---

"These three days have been absolute torture!"

"Thank goodness Inference Day is finally over! I hope nothing went wrong!"

On Blue Star, a young man in his twenties was nervously watching the clock tick down to the final moment.

Soon after, his Inference Day results appeared!

[Congratulations, Player. The character you are playing has successfully completed the third Inference Day. Evaluation: Excellent. You have received a random Middle Tier item from the designated Underground City.]

[Item Dispensed: Meditation Necklace]

(Meditation Necklace - Middle Tier: Increases Magic Power recovery speed by 35% after casting and Magic Power cultivation speed by 35%.)

[Congratulations, Player, on completing the first step of the special task ’Civilization Pioneers’: Spreading the faith of the Deities. The ’Divine Dragon Sect’ has now gained the devout faith of over three hundred people and the general faith of over twelve hundred people.]

[Believers: 1614. Evaluation: Excellent.]

[You have been rewarded with +16 professional Levels. You may claim this reward at any time after entering the game.]

???

’Is this a joke?’

’Sixteen hundred believers? And a 16-Level reward?’

’Is this the 200% bonus from the evaluation?’

In the Game World, He’an, who had just awoken in a commoner’s house, was filled with excitement.

"Claim! I want to claim my professional Level reward!"

At this moment, He’an was alone in the house.

So, upon entering the game, he couldn’t wait to claim his reward from the hundred-day period.

And then, in the very next moment.

A vast amount of Magic Power was suddenly siphoned into the area around He’an’s house.

This process was almost invisible to ordinary people.

But it was clearly visible to the other two people from the Star Empire.

"What’s happening? What the hell is He’an up to?"

Potter had been about to rest when he was startled by the nearby convergence of Magic Power.

As if he had thought of something.

Potter immediately rushed out of his room.

Just then, he ran right into the Young Princess, Helen.

"Uh, you felt it too?"

Potter asked as he looked at Helen.

"It would be strange if I didn’t notice such a massive and abnormal convergence of Magic Power."

"It looks like He’an is breaking through."

"Come on, let’s go see."

"Of course we have to see! Hurry up! I have a feeling this isn’t what a breakthrough from Tier One should look like."

"..."

So, the two of them quickly arrived at He’an’s door.

As it happened, He’an’s door was unlocked.

So, when Potter went to knock, the door swung open.

This was one of the downsides of the commoner district. Even in a better brick house, the wooden doors offered almost no privacy.

The moment the door opened, they saw a powerful current of air suddenly erupt from He’an, who was sitting on his bed.

"He... He’an, you broke through???"

Potter stared at He’an as if he’d seen a ghost.

At that moment, having just completed his breakthrough, He’an exuded the holy aura of a Priest, giving off a feeling of exceptional peace and serenity.

He’an opened his eyes.

"I broke through. And... I’m already Tier Three, Level 33!"

He’an announced it as if it were no big deal.

This left the two at the door completely stunned.

"Tier Three?"

"You’re already Tier Three??? Weren’t you just Tier One, Level 17???"

"Damn, it’s only been about a hundred days, and you’ve already jumped two whole Tiers?"

"Is the Divine Favor for all you Divine Favored this potent?"

Potter’s composure was starting to crack.

Going from Tier One to Tier Three in a hundred days?

’What kind of joke is this?’

Forget a hundred days, an ordinary Cultivator wouldn’t be able to go from Tier One to Tier Three in even three years, not even with constant lucky encounters at the Low Tiers.

"So, this... is this the power of a Divine Favored?"

"It’s truly enviable."

Helen said, her astonished gaze filled with envy.

"It’s alright, it’s alright."

"It’s probably because these are the Low Tiers, so the advancement is a bit faster."

"Besides, we did really well on our Civilization Pioneers mission this time. That’s why I was able to receive such Divine Grace directly. It can’t compare to you guys who gain strength through your own Power."

Potter: "..."

Helen: "..."
