However, despite criticizing the Gods of this world, criticizing how poorly they manage, playing a good hand so badly, and turning a promising civilization into its current state.

Bai Yi can actually understand.

After all, without guidance, it is inherently difficult for a civilization to develop its technological level.

Especially for an Extraordinary Civilization, since it already possesses directly useful extraordinary abilities, there is essentially no motivation to develop any mechanical or Magic Technology.

Even knowing that if a technological path is developed, the future return would be high, the initial phase of technology not only requires substantial investment but may also show no return for years.

The initial phase of the technological path has many techniques that may not even compare to directly using extraordinary abilities.

Whether it's for geniuses researching technological systems, citizens witnessing and enjoying these technologies, or even the rulers deciding on investments, it's quite a blow.

It's akin to laboriously researching an idea all day, only to discover there is already a better and more convenient solution.

Moreover, for the vast majority of civilizations, the benefits that technology can bring are still entirely unknown.

Faced with research setbacks, without a clear reference or target, there is a greater chance of directly questioning their correctness, eventually returning to the original extraordinary system path.

It's like a project that requires a substantial investment every year, yet no short-term benefits can be seen.

Even if the growth in benefits can be witnessed, if within one's lifetime one cannot wait for the day the benefits cover the costs, anyone would have to carefully consider the necessity of the project's existence.

Only a few extraordinary civilizations, due to their suitable extraordinary systems and good fortune, happened to have geniuses pave a path, thereby developing a characteristic Starry Sky Civilization.

Especially for those extraordinary civilizations primarily based on the Faith System, the Faith System itself is the least suited for developing technological paths; all factors combined, it completely blocks that civilization's path to technology.

"However, it's also considered good news.

With as many as 3 individuals of the 8th Rank, if they really had not weak technological prowess simultaneously, it would indeed be troublesome.

Once reported, the Three Great Civilizations would absolutely regard it as a threat, putting aside the issue of the Martial Cultivation Association President, they would prioritize dealing with this civilization.

But now...

Ha, it's merely a primitive civilization with brute force."

Bai Yi exhaled and smirked disdainfully.

It's not that she looks down on it, but because in Paradise World she has encountered too many different worlds.

Just by speaking of extraordinary powers, the Beast Taming World certainly isn't inferior to this civilization.

Not only is its level of extraordinary power's technological integration higher, with a trend of developing systematic spells, but also in terms of high-tier combat power comparison, the Beast Taming World's 8th Rank has even more.

In all aspects, it far surpasses this Divine Authority civilization.

The greatest difference is just that the Beast Taming World relies on colonizing "Secret Realms" to acquire extra resources, while this civilization relies on colonizing alien planets.

Even though the extraordinary system of this civilization is unique, with indeed good potential, yet without the backing of a corresponding civilization level, it's not threatening at all.

"Let's go, we'll leave some personnel for further investigation, and we'll withdraw first, report back to the Gemini Civilization."

Bai Yi squinted her eyes, looking towards the most conspicuous Divine Statue at the center of the church.

She clearly understands her core purpose for this trip.

Her core is to use this civilization as an excuse to lure over that Martial Cultivation Association President, eliminate him, and seize intelligence.

Not for conquering this civilization.

Of course, her other target this time also includes the belief-related knowledge in that President's mind.

Since this civilization is primarily faith-based, it is also one of her targets.

Once the core objective is achieved, this civilization can't be overlooked within the original plan...

"With this civilization, the plan should be no problem; once reported, before transferring that President over, there will definitely need to be a token attack.

This matter is entrusted to you.

When you return, bring more people back; I need you to form a small team in advance, specifically responsible for collecting more information and knowledge about this civilization!"

"Yes."

Lunning agreed without questioning further.

Bai Yi's reconnaissance target this time has already been achieved, continuing to stay is meaningless, immediately activating her Space Ability to begin leaving.

Before she left, Bai Yi didn't forget the unconscious folks on the ground.

With a snap of her fingers, the golden-green Magic Power fell onto the unconscious priests, awakening them.

When they woke up, Bai Yi and Lunning had already vanished amidst the distortion of light.

Teleporting back to the warship docked in the asteroid belt of the outer space, Bai Yi quickly jumped back to the main fleet. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Once the Quantum Network reconnected, Bai Yi promptly sought out the Emperor of the Gemini Civilization.

"Are you saying that you've found a primitive Divine Authority civilization with at least 3 individuals of the 8th Rank?

Using the Faith System's power? And successfully possessing more than one 8th Rank powerhouse?"

Upon hearing Bai Yi's discovery, the Gemini's Emperor did not have the relaxed expression Bai Yi expected; instead, he was serious, frowning.

"What's wrong?"

Realizing something isn't right, Bai Yi's mind began flooding with numerous speculations.
