“It shouldn’t be burdensome forced labor, a chore that destabilizes civilization.”

“Therefore, the best approach would be to turn the construction of marvels into a grand event that involves the whole population, much like a talent competition.”

“That way, when I farm in the abyss, the excess materials will have a place to be used.”

“People can earn contributions several times the normal amount, as well as a variety of top-notch items through this event.”

“Planet Blue Star will gain the marvel, enhancing the civilization’s bonus.”

“It’s a win-win for everyone!”

“This is what a person of hope should do!”

Of course.

The process, with all its trivial details, would be handled by the big shots.

Jiang Chen only needed to continue farming in the abyss as usual to maintain the production of top-tier resources and keep this entire system running.

Beyond that.

The Shining Star Torch, as a Civilization Wonder, possesses uniqueness.

Its construction process requires the participation of civilization members, not just for the construction itself, but for the cohesion of civilization.

Mechanical construction cannot speed up the building process.

However, this limitation exists only for the wonder itself and does not affect the areas attached to the marvel—

Therefore, the alliance plans to establish a supercity spanning thousands of miles, centered around the Shining Star Torch.

[Star Torch City]

Star Torch City will be able to accommodate most of the population of Planet Blue Star.

In the early stages of the marvel’s construction, it will provide convenient lodging and environments, making it easier for people to participate without having to spend a lot of time traveling.

Once the marvel is complete, Star Torch City will also be preserved.

It’s a part of the wonder.

At the same time, it’s also symbolic of the new era of alliance cities.

“Currently, Planet Blue Star is nominally united under one Blue Star Alliance.”

“However, people’s ingrained notions can’t be eradicated quickly, and in many cases, interactions still happen on a country-by-country basis.”

“We can utilize the process of creating marvels to promote the unity of civilization.”

“Completely integrating Planet Blue Star into a single alliance.”

“Aren’t we planning to build several wonders?”

“In the future, the rebuilding of Planet Blue Star will center around different wonders, creating several super city clusters…”

“Everything starts from Star Torch City…”

Listening to the big shots’ narration, Jiang Chen raised his head and looked at the Shining Star Torch woven from beams of light before him, his eyes bright.

From the birth of Abyss Rune to the rise of mecha pilots, and then the establishment of the alliance.

In just twenty years, Planet Blue Star had undergone too many changes.

Once the Shining Star Torch is truly erected…

Planet Blue Star’s civilization will have completely broken away from the past and embarked on a new path.

He could almost see the beginning of a new era.

Maybe…

In future history books, the establishment of Star Torch City will become a symbol separating the old era from the new.

And all this was happening gradually under his influence.

“Where will Planet Blue Star head to in the future…”

“I’m quite looking forward to it.”

…

Humans are visual creatures.

Even if the bonuses are exactly the same.

The meaning brought about by civilization traits and Civilization Wonders is absolutely different.

Therefore, when the nascent form of the Shining Star Torch stood on the surface of Planet Blue Star, it immediately caught everyone’s attention.

Soon, the alliance announced information about [Civilization Wonder Construction],[Large-Scale Marvel Event],[Mythical Items and Civil Contributions],[Daily Sign-ins for a Chance to Draw Prizes]…

As expected.

Everyone’s enthusiasm was completely mobilized—

It was clear to anyone with the slightest vision that the Shining Star Torch, as a Civilization Wonder, would become an eternal legend once successfully constructed, immortalized in history.

By participating in the construction of the wonder, they were taking part in a historical process!

The significance was extraordinary.

Not to mention, the alliance was offering rewards so generous, the profits were many times higher compared to the usual abyss farming.

Was there even a need to think about it?

Although Star Torch City was still under construction and the alliance was in the midst of mobilizing resources and not able to start building the wonder immediately,

They could first explore the Age-Old Shadow, accumulating materials necessary for the construction of the wonder.

Annihilate them completely!

Also, with the talent intensity bonuses brought by the [Protector] trait, people’s enthusiasm naturally soared.

Teaming up for dungeons, trading resources, discussing the effects of Wonders…

For a time, Planet Blue Star was even busier than during the New Year, filled with a joyous atmosphere everywhere.

Yep.

After injecting the gene serum, they no longer needed rest.

As long as the pay was good, they were more than happy to toil away.

During this period, Jiang Chen also made a trip home to see his parents.

When he visited last month, Father Jiang and Mother Jiang had expressed a desire to retire, even declining the Supercharge Module.

Now, they were reigniting their youth, their blood boiling with excitement—

Though Father Jiang’s talent was Rapid Construction, with no strength bonuses, he was not content to be just an assistant.

He had created a blast-through mecha, gaining a [Burst Elite] trait.

Increasing the power of explosive items, enhancing the quality of his forging.

Transforming into a demolition maniac, he rapidly produced various explosive consumables through a massive reserve of materials, flattening the abyss.

With a fivefold talent bonus, he could even forge while bombing during combat.

The forging speed almost kept up with the consumption rate.

He even planned to acquire an endurance trait, converting stray elements into the necessary forging elements.

Thus achieving infinite explosions!

Mother Jiang was not to be outshined.

Her water attribute talent already had a 30% bonus, rising to 150% after a fivefold increase.

Even on Planet Blue Star before the crossing of the abyss, she would be considered a genius.

She created a liquid-form mecha to primarily handle defense, to prevent any accidental harm from the explosives.

Together in the abyss, they thrived, fully embracing a second youth.

Even Father Jiang’s balding head began to regrow hair, exuding a sense of vibrancy and vigor.

It proved that playing dumb about mechas was just an act.

Over twenty years, they had almost witnessed the rise of mecha pilots.

How could they not be even slightly interested in becoming mecha pilots themselves?

Even after Jiang Chen came home, he hadn’t talked for long before Father Jiang and Mother Jiang received a call from their teammates, telling him to do whatever he needed to do, and they hurriedly rushed off to dungeon crawl.

The parents had found something they truly enjoyed.

Jiang Chen naturally felt very happy about this.

It was just a pity that Father Jiang and Mother Jiang were of too low a rank to team up with him…

It wasn’t so much about wanting to farm something; he just wanted to show off his strength in front of his parents.

This was probably the greatest pleasure of being a child who had achieved something.

“It’s a pity there’s a level restriction in the abyss; you can’t team up across levels,”

“Can’t show off in front of my parents… feels a bit disappointing.”

Jiang Chen didn’t dwell on it and quickly returned to the Star Base.

There were many materials required to build the [Shining Star Torch].

For the low-level materials, given the current state of the Blue Star mecha pilots, it wouldn’t take long to gather them.

However, the high-level materials were a bit tricky to obtain.

The 12th Rank material [Alien Demon Heart and Soul] was clearly a product of the [Alien Demon Invasion] disaster that Planet Blue Star was currently facing.

Li Xiao originally planned to drive his Divine Lord Mecha to trouble the alien demons.

But Jiang Chen stopped him, assigning him to take care of other matters first.

“11th Rank, 12th Rank materials…”

“To obtain the rights of a Level 4 civilization, you must completely vanquish a calamity of at least 13th Rank in strength.”

“For those ancient civilizations, obtaining such materials is not difficult.”

“In terms of value, they’re definitely not as precious as Mythical Items like [Supercharge Upgrade].”

“If trading is an option, there’s no need to take risks for now.”

Jiang Chen touched the Abyss Rune, his gaze falling upon a line of text.

[Would you like to traverse the Abyss Levels?]

It was time to take a look at the Purgatory level.

That place was where many civilizations convened.

Confirm!

Jiang Chen’s thoughts moved.

The next moment, his consciousness left his body, transforming into a star, plunging into the interstices of the endless worlds, streaking past countless bizarre and beautiful illusions.

Finally, he paused within a kaleidoscopic prism-like Void.

[You have arrived at the Purgatory level.]
