Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

Not only did it add several entries to the checklist for human civilization, it even sent over all the intelligence information he knew about the remaining laboratories and personnel of the Life Empire!

He left no stone unturned.

Shen Hao was quite satisfied with this attitude.

And very loyal.

Although he had confidence in the future of human civilization, it was clear that he would not underestimate the powerful forces within this native civilization.

At least at present, the level and scale of human civilization could not compare with the Life Empire, which once spanned dozens of star systems, controlled thousands of Life Planets, and whose influence radiated across half of the universe.

The technology of the Life Empire was very important for the current human civilization.

Therefore, he sent out another team!

No longer needing to use the Emperor's Scepter for long-distance deployment, but directly bringing down the domain and using the domain rules for teleportation.

This was a special operations squad among the top echelons of human civilization.

Officially, they were called the "Direct Special Operations Squad."

But some people referred to them by other names like "Divine Judgement," "Royal Guard," or "Inner Experts."

After all, although there were just over ten people, each one was a direct subordinate of Shen Hao!

After all, when Shen Hao selected his direct subordinates, he looked mainly at individual potential, but not everyone was suitable for leading a legion.

For example, Liu Ruoxi, and also Gu Qiuyue.

Although their strength was formidable, neither their talents nor their personalities were fit for the army.

They could either become loners or form or join such a squad.

The squad leader of this team was named Thorne Yuri.

A former West State man.

He appeared to be in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes hid a subtle ruthlessness.

Before the Civilization Trial, Thorne had been a spy for West State, even reaching the top of the world, and he had become a Chosen One during the first Trial.

Of course, at that time he was only a Level 1 White Talent, nothing noteworthy.

But he witnessed the most brutal scenes after the start of the Civilization Trial, witnessed the weakening of the nation he had sworn loyalty to, and also witnessed the meat grinder-like battlefields.

He also experienced the death of his family.

After a series of arduous mental processes, Thorne had completely changed.

He became a firm believer in humanity, a revenger!

It was precisely because of his bravery and fearlessness shown in the previous trial that Shen Hao chose him as a direct subordinate, although he did not allocate one of the scarce two hundred Purple Talent slots to him. However, he earned himself a talent improvement reward for a Chosen One based on his performance in the last trial.

Chosen Ones like him were not very common, but also not rare in the current human civilization.

"Is everyone clear on the mission information?" Thorne looked at his teammates.

"Yes, Captain!" everyone responded in unison.

This was a squad with quite diverse skin colors and species.

Not only were there humans from various countries, but there were even two alien Chosen Ones.

One was a Mongolian, the other a Siti person.

Shen Hao's direct subordinates were not exclusively human; he had also selected some outstanding Chosen Ones from alien races. On the one hand, their abilities indeed were outstanding, nearly the most elite of their respective civilizations. On the other hand, it was also to strengthen the control over alien races.

"From now on, we will become ghosts," Thorne looked at one of them, "Yumura Tomoaki, your ability must constantly be applied to all of us to reduce our presence; Lu Yun, you hide our forms to evade various types of surveillance; Samira, you are responsible for hypnotic control to let us blend onto the spaceship headed for our destination, and it would be best to control a few more people..."

Thorne's teammates were carefully selected by him.

The main characteristic is to penetrate deep into enemy territory, conducting reconnaissance and sabotage!

Everyone's Talent was chosen with this direction in mind.

Even in such an area where technological strength is not weak and which also possesses psychic abilities, a kind of supernatural force, they still have confidence.

You must understand that everyone in this squad has a Blue Elite Level Talent!

Furthermore, they're all above Level 21!

In fact, were it not for the squad having been established for more than five years without much use for their martial skills, they would not have been selected for this task—it would have been a bit of overkill.

However, strength on paper is meaningless without practice.

Shen Hao naturally wouldn't keep strong individuals idly within his grasp.

So, they were dispatched here.

Thorne was not the least bit careless either, his vigilance was completely necessary.

The researchers from the Life Empire had spent a long time in the Yodora Kingdom, were deeply involved, and since they dared to attack the human civilizations' stationed troops through dimensional creatures, it meant they had come to regard human civilization as an enemy.

In such circumstances, no one could be trusted, including Prince Bent.

Just like ghosts, they would silently locate their target and then neutralize it—that was the nature of this mission.

After giving Thorne and their actions a bit of attention, Shen Hao also felt reassured.

"Although we can't compare in size, at the level of Extraordinary Third Stage, we have a very clear advantage over the indigenous civilizations," Shen Hao slightly squinted his eyes, confident in this realization, "It should be said, all Trial Civilizations have such an advantage."

By sending so many stationed troops, each one is like his eyes, his perception.

Thus, he now has a deeper understanding of the Extraordinary System of this universe.

Among the twelve layers of Spiritual Ability Talent, the bottom three, by the standards of the Chosen One's Talent, do not even qualify to be called a Talent.

At best, they could be considered abilities.

And that's the lowest-level White Ability.

The middle three layers, however, could be comparable to White Talent, while the Purple Epic Talent has far exceeded the standards of the top three layers.

It definitely reaches the "Divine Third Layer."

This means that human civilization possesses hundreds of "Spiritual Ability Users" with "Divine Third Layer Spiritual Ability Talent"!

In terms of potential, even the so-called Five Great Forces likely do not have so many.

Being called "Divine Third Layer" is nearly an impossibility in this world, each one capable of receiving absolute attention among the major forces, and even capable of supporting a mighty force after leveling up.

It can only be said that the strength of Trial Civilizations may not yet match that of the indigenous civilizations, but in terms of potential, they are certainly incomparable!

But this is as expected.

Trial Civilizations, after all, are backed by the existence of a Civilization Trial. In the face of a Civilization Trial, what can a mere universe possibly amount to?

Hence, certain that Thorne was sufficiently cautious, Shen Hao had no concern whatsoever about the possibility of their mission failing.

And indeed it was so.

They were given three days for the mission, yet in just two days, Thorne and his team successfully infiltrated the highest-level laboratory left by the Life Empire!

This was an absolutely closed laboratory, where entry and exit relied solely on a psychic with the Teleportation Talent, and moreover, this psychic had to be one who had been brainwashed and controlled, with devices implanted in their body, their thoughts and spiritual energy fluctuations completely under control. Even the people of Prince Bent only knew the approximate location of this laboratory but not specific details, much less the method to get there.

But that still didn't stop Thorne and his team.

It was merely a matter of using large-scale detection to lock down the area, followed by a targeted Teleportation Magic spell, through which everyone directly entered the laboratory!

Meanwhile, Gerson was still analyzing the parameters he was currently seeing while actively contacting various collaborators within the Yodora Kingdom.

"I want those psychics from human civilization, anyone will do, dead or alive!" Gerson was nearly driven to madness.
