I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

The human voting process requires only a decision from everyone, but the Human Government has to consider many aspects; starting a war directly is the worst choice.

We must advance gradually.

Thanks to the training in the Northern Territory, the number of human diplomatic teams is adequate.

Green Grass City dispatched 40 diplomatic teams at once to the surrounding civilizations to inquire about their movements and decisions.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan immediately sought help from his powerful contact—the Turtle Civilization!

"Elders, those ancient races are so wealthy, and they possess many mythical artifacts. If the Turtle Civilization were to go to war with them and plunder these species, how many civilizations could it support?"

"Moreover, my Qiankun World also needs an ancient bloodline. Please assist me!"

The strangers in the Immortal Palace were speechless.

The trouble hasn't even reached your doorstep, yet you're already eyeing others' possessions.

But the matter was significant, making it awkward for them to make a decision.

Turtle Guzi tapped the table and said in a low voice, "I will contact my clan to send reinforcements... However, you shouldn't have high expectations."

"Why?"

"Although our Turtle Civilization retains some Level 5 and even Level 6 Technology, the quantity is limited and reserved for the final Epoch War," explained Turtle Guzi.

"This incident, though significant, is less than a ten-thousandth of the Epoch War, so the Turtle Civilization will not agree to reveal its trump cards... These things must be kept hidden. You must understand this. If Pangu Continent is really destroyed, we need to be able to escape."

Lu Yuan opened his mouth but said nothing, yet he understood.

"A small number of reinforcements can be sent... But they only have the combat capability of a Fourth-level Civilization, which isn't even as good as your [Greedy Demon God]. You know, our Turtle Clan does not like to fight and are all 'cowardly turtles.'"

"The [Spirit] we cultivate is no match for [Demon], so our combat power is limited. That's why we provide constant support to civilizations."

Lu Yuan was speechless, as he initially wanted to rely on them, but now it seemed they were relying on him: "Since you have supported civilizations, do you have any... very powerful ones? Have them come as reinforcements, that's not too much to ask!"

Turtle Guzi slapped his thigh and complained, "It's difficult! These civilizations are spread across the world. How can we bring them to the Ruins of Buzhou? You must understand that the civilizations in the Ruins of Buzhou are only a small fraction of them."

Moreover, the Turtle Civilization is merely an investor, able to suggest but not to command these civilizations to fight.

Old Cat also raised a hand to speak: "May I boldly ask, among the civilizations you support, where does human civilization rank?"

Turtle Guzi chuckled, "It's certainly not number one."

"You humans indeed have great luck and stable public support, but you started too slowly, only as a First-level Civilization. Some civilizations were already a Fourth-level Civilization when they came to Pangu Continent, so there's no comparison."

On the other hand, the old strangers were dissatisfied; the Crystal Man said, "I'm telling you, those Second Generation Civilizations need no support."

"They were initially a Fifth-level Civilization! Their technology has fallen to a Fourth-level Civilization; is supporting them meaningful?"

For a civilization to become strong, the focus should be on internal construction. A civilization can only progress, not regress. Once a backslide occurs, it signifies serious internal construction issues, such as unequal wealth distribution, political corruption, cultural problems, interest groups hijacking the civilization, etc. Solving these problems is much harder than mere technological advancement.

Of course, there are few civilizations that can self-renovate and be reborn in Nirvana.

But such civilizations are always the minority.

Turtle Guzi also knew this principle and sighed: "I've stayed in the Boundaryless for too long and don't know what they have supported... In short, we will send some troops. Rest assured."

Although humans are not ranked number one, they are at the forefront, and their promising future holds high weight in their minds.

Not to mention the [Greedy Demon God].

In the Turtle Civilization's ranking, the [Greedy Demon God] and humans are on an equal footing, comparable to the past [Jade], both having ethnic backing.

Just with [Jade] alone, the investment is substantial.

"Even if the Turtle Civilization arrives, do not expose yourself as [Jade]. We shall form individual poles to share the pressure."

"I understand. How long until you arrive?"

"Soonest seven or eight months, slowest over ten months, but we'll catch up. After this, some clansmen of my Turtle Civilization could enter the Northern Territory to help manage the rear. Though our combat power is low, we lack no Spirit Essence, bringing at least a seven-figure Spirit Essence... Spending ten thousand a year could last several hundred years."

Thus, this matter was decided.

Lu Yuan and Old Cat exited the Immortal Palace, thinking repeatedly.

Still felt that having the Turtle Civilization wasn't entirely secure.

No matter how ancient the Turtle Civilization is, even if things turned ugly, others couldn't easily handle them, but as for humans... there's no escape!

"It would be great if there were a [Ghost]-level reinforcement!" Lu Yuan sighed, "I'm growing to love [Ghost]-level anomalies more and more, defying everything, not needing to worry about consequences, just killing them all!"

The Turtle Civilization indeed has some [Ghost]-level reinforcements. Although they are wise [Ghosts] and thus slightly weaker than regular [Ghosts], they are still [Ghost]-level anomalies.

Unfortunately, all these fellows are located in the Boundaryless and will only re-emerge at the end of the era.
