Transform into a human

Humanity gave Hibern the most direct response, leaving the goddess with no choice but to pluck two strands of her hair, which then transformed into a dazzling galaxy, swirling towards the two formations.

Meanwhile, an army of elves arrived at the battlefield at the edge of the star system, riding on elven dragons. However, they appeared so small in the face of the human warships that were as huge as mountains, and for a moment they did not know how to fight back.

Relying on elven dragons to devour them? Dragons, which are like behemoths on the ground, are nothing but insects in front of warships!

As for the mage group composed of elven elders... they were wiped out in the first round of attacks by humans, and even some of the star spirits are now on the verge of death.

Ultimately, it became the classic composition of a god facing off against a fleet alone, much like the pioneering wars of hundreds of years ago, with sirens, dragonborn, giants, mythical beasts from mountains and seas, the undead, star-devouring beasts... all in the same style.

No, there are still some differences; the human fleet is no longer what it used to be.

The starry sea released by Hiber was annihilated the moment it came into contact with the magic circle, turning into nothingness like positive and negative particles coming into contact. At the same time, it released a huge amount of energy. The point of contact was like two stars, illuminating the entire battlefield in a bright red light.

The stalemate continued for a long time until the light of the magic circle finally dimmed, the universe returned to darkness, and the galaxy was also completely destroyed. Sibel coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The blood of the gods transformed into a veil of nebula, dreamlike and illusory, yet it chilled the hearts of the alien gods watching the battle, instantly diminishing their initial desire to aid the elves.

Yes, the human fleet is very strong, but centuries ago it was just a consumable for wearing down the gods. The real deciding factor was the holy positions and other human gods. In the battle against the first god, humans even lost more than five holy positions before winning. But now... the gods have been severely damaged by the holy positions and the fleet alone!

The communication networks of all the major civilizations were silent. The authority that Shibel held was called "Hope." She was indeed not very good at fighting, but she was still a god!

The outcome of their first encounter completely shattered their original understanding.

The total number of gods in various civilizations was roughly equal to that of humans. They had thought that by uniting, they could curb the pace of human expansion, but today's scene completely shattered their illusions.

The Federation has nine such fleets!

Of the nine fleets, the Central Fleet and the Second and Fourth Fleets were split and reorganized from the original Imperial Invincible Fleet, while the Republic Fleet became the current First, Fifth, and Sixth Fleets. The Third and Seventh Fleets came from the Northern Kingdom. In addition, there is a joint fleet composed of subordinate races and demi-human civilizations. Theoretically speaking, humanity can fight on equal terms with the various civilizations without even the intervention of its own gods.

How could this not terrify all ethnic groups!

The original plan to join forces to help the elves was no longer feasible. They needed time to find a way to deal with the human fleet, and the elven civilization was the "sacrifice" they offered to buy them time.

Hiberna clearly realized this; He, who held the power of "hope," was now shrouded in despair... No, there was still a faint flame of hope in the lake of fate!

He once again smuggled the subconscious into humanity's crystalline network, then rekindled the flame of hope within everyone's hearts:

"Citizens of the Federation, do you know why humanity has waged such a war?"

It must be said that the elves' appearance is truly outstanding, especially in line with human aesthetics, and even makes most people willing to listen to the elf queen's stories.

"The Andromeda constellation is teeming with civilizations, like stars in the sky, yet only a handful are considered mainstream. Do you know how we, the gods, measure whether a civilization is mainstream?"

Even the crew members in the human fleet slowed down. They were unconsciously drawn to these words, and of course, more so because ordinary people might not have the chance to hear the voice of a god even once in their entire lives.

Human gods attempted to stop the Elf Queen, but the Chain Crystal Network always maintained a door for gods of other races, and even their authority could not change this underlying code.

The Elf Queen finally revealed the secret: "That is, a flourishing civilization can extract a Level 6 civilization relic, and then, based on this, a path to transcendence can be born."

"For example, the extraordinary methods and techniques used by you humans!"

So that's how it is... The highly skilled cultivators instantly understood what the Elf Queen meant: there are never thirty-six paths to becoming a cultivator, but only one! Just as the authority of the siren is "space," the authority of humanity is called "cultivator"!

"The overall strength of each path is related to the prosperity of the civilization to which it belongs. The tragedy of Tianweisan can be called a 'civilizational tragedy'. The key is that it happened in your core area and was witnessed by hundreds of billions of people. All thirty-six extraordinary paths were shaken as a result. The saints are eager to improve the prosperity of human civilization in the short term. Only in this way can they prevent their great power from declining."

"There is only one way—war!"

"So don't be fooled by them. This war is not a war of revenge at all, and it has no justice whatsoever. It's just a war of the jungle!"

This is shocking! The schemes of the Holy Ones have been laid bare, and the citizens of the Federation who value justice cannot accept this explanation.

Why did the Federation conceal this information? Because the law of the jungle is inherently "uncivilized," and the jungle and civilization are naturally antonyms!

Therefore, they want to deceive the masses. As long as the profits from war are large enough, they can cover up the "uncivilized" aspects of war. This is how humanity has developed.

The secret of the Human Extraordinary Path was only discovered by the alien gods after the Federation was established, but by then no one dared to expose it and face the wrath of the human gods. But now, Hiber has no time to worry about that.

"Hiber, what's the point of all this?" Luo Ansheng said softly. "The gains from annihilating a race far outweigh the losses from waging war. You can't escape it in the end."

Since the prosperity of human civilization has been damaged, someone must fill this hole!

"What if I told you that there's still hope to salvage everything on Apollo?"

"What did you say?!"

"My authority is hope, and I will not joke about this."

"But the time cage has been reversed three times, and the ending has never changed."

After the gods removed all of Apollonius's spacetime, causality, and mass, they created a time cage, which they placed in the Temple of Civilization. Although they could not interfere with it by any means, they could reverse spacetime again and again in an attempt to find a different timeline.

But they reversed it three times, and the tragedy happened three times!

"You have overlooked a cause and effect that is extremely hidden, and my authority is just right to detect its existence."

The Elf Queen said with utmost solemnity:

"It's in the Great Library!"
