It was truly shocking to believe that human civilization could build an extensive and elaborate economic corridor across the Panama Continent that not only restored the severed web of trade and transport, but also transport any Martial Artists from any part of the continent to any other part in about an hour.
This was a level of human connectivity that was truly beggared the mind, especially in the modern post-Incursion world where most of the continent was now drowned in esoterified extensions of the Beast Domain.
And yet, the plans that the Emperor of Harmony proposed beca increasingly realistic in their eyes the more they thought about the specifics. Not only did they allegedly have a powerful Elder Tree to drastically cut down on the ti, but the full power of human civilization was nothing to scoff at.
With all this power pooled together constructively for perhap the first ti in the history of human civilization, even sothing as seemingly insurmountable as wide network of corridors across the entire continent entered the realm of plausibility.
The leaders of human civilization beca increasingly favored to this choice.
There was an increasingly nigh unanimous support for the collectivization of intelligence and Martial power, as well as the collective effort to restore the web of human civilization before they were destroyed in the process.
Of course, they didn't intend to sign any treaty on the spot, that was far, far too premature.
A treaty of collectivization in regards to the various initiatives that the Emperor of Harmony had created weren't formulated, let alone verified and vetted each one of them, they would need to go through the massive dumps of information that the Emperor of Harmony had thrown atop their heads in a single eting.
And yet, they were on the sa page in regards to the long-term future of human civilization.
They needed to pool all their power together if they had any hopes of preventing any hostile entities of the true world from steamrolling them.
Of course, in truth, many of them were simply agreeing to this initiative because of the promise of absolute protection from the Kandrian Empire if they chose to support and partake in the initiative.
It was hardly the case that human civilization was ideologically unified in collectivism and connection, and moreso that the Emperor of Harmony had cleverly stacked an incentive structure to get them to join the initiative.
After all, human civilization was diverse with a myriad different cultures and ideologies, and not all of them supported collectivization and unity.
But with the ironclad absolute guarantee of protection from the Kandrian Empire, none of those things mattered.
Nothing mattered in the face of raw safety and security.
"We have discussed many a matter in this summit," the Emperor of Harmony continued with a powerful tone. "We have plotted the long-term trajectory of human civilization, a vision of the future that will benefit us no matter what the true world holds for us. We cannot go wrong with unity."
His eyes sharpened with intensity.
"In the following days, I would advise all of you to shed all your pre-conceived notions of this world."
His tone grew stronger.
"Anything is possible."
His words were simple, and yet, they belied the still shocking truth that everything that they had considered to be fundantally true about the world was now shattered. That ant that they needed to prepare for, well, anything.
It was theoretically possible that the true world was almost entirely barren of life.
It was also possible that it was filled with monsters that were orders of magnitude more powerful than anything that they could even begin to dream of fighting head-on.
In both cases, the initiative that the Emperor of Harmony proposed were extrely beneficial.
Regardless, human civilization would have to face them, one way or another.
"Good luck, my fellow leaders," the Emperor of Harmony bade them farewell. "No matter what is to co, we will fight united as a continent. As a civilization. As a species."
With that solemn declaration, the summit ca to an end as the various projections of the leaders of human civilization were disconnected.
One mont, the Emperor of Harmony found himself addressing the leadership of the human species.
The very next mont, he found himself standing in a massive empty hall, stretching as far as the eye could see with the bright light of the afternoon Sun shining through the large windows of the hall.
He heaved a deep breath.
"Your Majesty," his Royal Secretary erged from the side of the hall, hidden away from the stage up until then.
The Emperor of Harmony shifted his gaze towards her with inquisitive eyes.
"She has arrived, Your Majesty," she inford with a composed tone. "And with her are all fifty six jets than carried away the Martial Sages of human civilization to Beast Domain."
His eyebrows furrowed with seriousness. "Arrange a eting with her imdiately."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Transfer all Martial Sages to the manifold and make arrangents for their rest, it doesn't matter how crude it is and it doesn't matter if you have to boot Martial Artists out of their rest bays. Make space and ensure all of them are in the manifold."
"Understood, Your Majesty."
It was very rare that human civilization would trust one nation with all their Martial Sages, but the Kandrian Empire was the one nation that they decided to entrust with the recovery of the Martial Sages of human civilization.
With the manifold, they could accelerate recovery by a factor of fourteen, and given that the Martial Sages had already been resting for about half a day since the anomaly occurred, it was expected that it wouldn't take very long for the Martial Sages to recover.
Asides from Rui, who had abused Gigabrain for quite an extended period of ti, making it certain that he was likely to sleep for quite so ti even in the manifold.
While the Emperor of Harmony was eager to see his son, he needed to have an important word with the one who had brought all of them back.
