Battlefield of Civilization: From the Bottom to the First Citizen

Chapter 56 Energy Blade

On the road from Linjiang Shopping Mall to the Northern Base, Wu Ou and his three companions, along with Bai Zhou's friend Ding Fan, rode in a transport vehicle filled with residents who wanted to relocate.

"I never expected that Xu Rui would actually let us come along." Yan Chi was in the driver's seat, looking at the scenery outside the window, and was in a very good mood.

"You've already seen the situation at Linjiang Shopping Mall. He can support so many people, but he's not good at shaping the new order."

"It would be better to gather the remaining capable people together and build a more stable team," Wu Ou explained, fiddling with the dagger in his hand.

Despite the fact that their original defenses are riddled with holes, they still have ample meat reserves and a number of capable people.

With unity of purpose, we can quickly transform Linjiang Shopping Mall into Linjiang Base.

Moreover, they left two energy scientists with Xu Rui, which is more conducive to his reconstruction work.

Moreover, through this battle, they have witnessed the "foundation" of the Northern Base. Coupled with the matter of the river ruins, the Northern Base will definitely send a lot of people.

Therefore, it was only a matter of time before the Linjiang base was brought under the control of the Northern Base.

"Looking at it this way, the Northern Base is developing much faster than in the previous life! This is a good sign."

The thought of the changes he could make made Wu Ou's lips curl into a smile.

There's a temporary sense of relief, like when you've finally finished a leg of a marathon and are hundreds of meters ahead of your rivals.

Although the road ahead is long, we have achieved some results, which is something to be proud of.

"If I remember correctly, there weren't many things left from the Jiangxin Island ruins in the previous life, and they seemed to be more like individual exoskeleton underwater combat suits."

This early acquisition should lay a solid foundation for the source energy armor technology.

Although there are many relics on Earth, they are not systematic and are scattered, and many of them come from different civilizations.

The ruins guarded by the Snow Demon are examples of civilizations that leaned towards developing energy-based weapons.

After obtaining it in my previous life, I did indeed use this opportunity to rapidly enhance the military strength of the northern base, successfully restore the basic order of the guard force, and gradually restore the gathering place of human civilization to the outside world.

It wasn't until they encountered high-level source energy beasts that these strong individuals began to value their individual strength again.

However, it now appears that the relics on Jiangxin Island are more focused on the development of individual soldier strength and the technology of assisting those with strong individual abilities.

If this technology is the primary focus of development, it will definitely affect the technological development of the Northern Base.

Therefore, Wu Ou planned in his mind that after he had developed the Jiangxin Island area to a certain extent, he would find an opportunity to poach the Snow Demons from their side.

Otherwise, if we wait for the protective energy of the ruins to disappear and be wasted by the source energy beasts and natural invasion, we will regret it.

Both technological skills and personal abilities need to be developed in a balanced way.

Having already begun planning his next move, Wu Ou suddenly looked at the dagger in his hand.

"Perhaps it's worthwhile to find out beforehand."

The source energy potion needs to be taken back, analyzed, and then attempted to be manufactured, also as evidence to prove that the civilization represented by that relic is not the past of Earth.

But this weapon, it seems, doesn't necessarily require proof, as long as there is one.

Moreover, when it comes to the structure of weapons, who can analyze them as quickly as he can!

Realizing this, he opened his mouth and swallowed the dagger.

Although the absorption rate of the activated ability is not very slow now when it is directly applied to the skin, he has gotten used to this method.

The entire dagger entered the body, and with the activation of the supernatural power, it quickly began to analyze its overall structure.

Leaving aside the particle structure of metallic materials, the overall shaping was also recorded in a single instant.

Most importantly, how is the energy blade conducted, shaped, and stably output? This is the most crucial point.

Although this is a cold weapon, if the technology of these steps can be mastered, then it is not impossible to transform it into a firearm.

"Let me see, is this considered an engraving? The transmission, stabilization, condensation, and constraint of energy... Whew!"

A simple energy dagger, yet it contains such detailed and complete information—this is truly a testament to a complete civilization!

As he gradually analyzed the process and meticulously replicated the energy pathways on the dagger, Wu Ou was once again struck by the importance of science and technology.

In the previous life, during the development of the ruins by the Blue Star civilization, only the Dragon Kingdom attempted to localize and apply the technologies to build a complete technology tree system.

Other countries, not to mention the small nations that barely survived the disaster, often acquired powerful weapons or technologies from the ruins, either to demonstrate them in an attempt to gain status on Earth or to exchange them for survival resources.

The other countries that later dominated the Civilization Council tended to simply replicate and directly apply the existing models, at most making some summaries and revisions.

For them, the most important thing is to quickly turn these technologies into weapons and equipment, and thus seize the right to speak on Earth in the new era.

In addition, there are at least twenty ancient civilizations on Earth, each with different developmental tendencies. In the end, the Dragon Kingdom abandoned its plan to integrate them and instead began to classify and organize them.

After entering the universe in the second phase, they encountered huge bottlenecks and research stagnation in the development of technology. They also encountered some civilizations that were developing normally, and only then did they realize that they had gone in the wrong direction.

But by then, there won't be enough time to correct it.

The only option is to increase the training of people with superpowers and allocate more resources to them in order to maintain our military deterrence against external forces.

On the other hand, they are accelerating the construction of their own civilization and technology tree, and creating a distinctive civilization and technology system.

Unfortunately, they were too arrogant in the early stages, and before they could achieve technological advancement, they were betrayed and killed, becoming an exiled civilization.

I shook my head and decided to seal those things away. It's better not to dwell on bad memories, as they can easily lead to excessive anxiety.

While recording this complete energy pathway, I tried to apply it to myself.

Although he was not a scientist in his previous life and could not understand the principles of this kind of civilization's technology at once, he had seen similar civilizations and technologies and knew some of their applications.

He had seen three types of energy pattern civilizations: two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and resonant.

A flat surface is similar to a tattoo, representing a rudimentary civilization that emphasizes individual combat power.

The three-dimensional one represents a technologically advanced civilization, while the resonant one represents a civilization that seems like a magician.

Just as Wu Ou was preparing to attempt sculpting on the skin, Yan Chi suddenly exclaimed in surprise from the side.

"Why is the snow so heavy here!"
