Recreating a Firmament!
After less than a minute of deliberation and consideration, Lin Ye gave a direct answer from the Divine Firmament.
"I choose the second method of controlling the Firmament!"
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt its debtor! The Primitive Planet I've chosen to control is Kazi Star, the one I used to control Azure Star!"
Actually, this choice isn't difficult.
Of the three options, a quick comparison will show that the second one is the best choice!
The first approach, the moderate and pastoral control method, has the advantage of integrating the Child Planet into the entire system of the Parent Planet. It can increase the Challengers population of the mother planet in the short term, and in the long run, it does indeed have greater potential.
However, the drawback is that this method of concluding contracts is too unstable, as it relies entirely on mutual trust.
Furthermore, during the process of Parent-Child Planet Contract, the mother star will inevitably provide some assistance to the child star in terms of Instance technology, Instance knowledge, and points, which is similar to raising a pet baby.
Unfortunately, while pet babies are loyal, other civilizations are not.
In this fucked-up, cruel world, there's absolutely no trust to speak of!
The Three-Body Problem World has a Dark Forest theory, which states that civilizations distrust each other and want to destroy one another; this is the universal principle of the Three-Body Problem World Universe.
This was also the biggest bargaining chip that allowed human civilization to threaten the Trisolaran Civilization with its Level of 0.7.
In today's world, the "Dark Forest" theory can be said to not exist.
Because all civilizations openly fight each other, the rules of the Divine Firmament incentivize them to fight and plunder each other.
No need for suspicion, just meet and do it...
If trust truly exists in this world, all trust must be built upon shared interests and goals, just like Azure Star has now entered the Level One Civilization War Zone.
Since the planet has now lost the conditions for civil war, everyone can only unite against external threats. It is understandable that people of the same civilization and species would trust each other.
But those Primitive Planets were different.
To put it bluntly, they are all foreign civilizations, and their intentions are bound to be different!
Which Primitive Planet wouldn't want to advance to a new level of civilization and live a free life not ruled by other civilizations?
Choosing this control method will most likely lead to nurturing a tiger that will eventually become a threat!
Lin Ye's least favorite thing is to do someone else's bidding!
This option is to be skipped.
As for the third method of control through plunder, Lin Ye felt it was a bit too short-sighted and destructive.
A civilization that chooses this approach is likely to be neither intelligent nor good-tempered.
Looting everything in one go might yield a large amount of points and Instance technology in an instant, but it's actually the least profitable approach, as you'll likely end up with mostly junk.
Given the limited Level on that Primitive Planet, it certainly wouldn't be of much use, at least not to Earth Online, which has already reached a certain level of civilization.
After some comparison, it became clear that the best approach is still the control of the Firmament. This control method is the most ruthless, but it is also the most effective.
On the one hand, it can stimulate the progress of top civilizations; on the other hand, it can continuously harvest their technology and points.
The only drawback is the possibility that it could be directly defeated by primitive civilizations that overthrow the Heavenly Gang.
But Lin Ye wasn't afraid of that at all.
As long as he continues to strengthen his own Instance, he doesn't believe that the Kha'Zix who live off the bug Instances will have a chance to defeat him.
The Kazi Star will only drift further and further away from itself, forever existing in this Universe as a slave to the Azure Star.
As for why we chose Kazi Star, the reason is quite simple.
With hundreds of millions of civilizations laid out before him, so diverse and bizarre, Lin Ye had no time to select them one by one.
The planet Kazi Star was recently reverted to its Primitive Planet; before that, it was at least a Level One Civilization.
As the saying goes, even a centipede with a hundred legs does not fall down when dead.
This kind of civilization, which has been reduced to a primitive level, must be considered to be at the upper Level within the group of primitive civilizations.

[The Divine Firmament has received the selection of the Civilization Guide. A new Firmament program will be generated on Khaz's planet. As the Civilization Guide, you can use this Firmament program to control Kazi Star at any time!]
[The data tables for Kazi Star have been uploaded to the Guide's backend!]
A virtual Light Screen immediately appeared in front of Lin Dong, Light Screen a 3D model of a planet and various text data.
[Rule the planet: Kazi Star!]
[Civilization Level: Primitive Civilization]
[Population: 2 billion!]
[Number of Instance: 900 million!]
[Highest Instance Level: Endless-level Instance "Heart of the Swarm"!]
[Basic Introduction to Civilization: The Kaz Star people possess tentacles that allow them to perceive the world. 20% of the Kaz Star people have two pairs of arms, while the remaining 80% have three pairs. The Kaz Star people are hermaphroditic, and their primary food and energy source is the insects found on their planet.]
By slightly rotating it with your hand, you can observe the more detailed features of Kazi Star, a feeling exactly the same as in the Creation Space!
As the virtual planet spun before his eyes, Lin Dong felt as if he had truly become the master of this planet.
It can observe every move of Kazi Star like God.
This feels different from playing Instance. In Instance, the NPCs are ultimately just digital beings, but on this Kazi Star, they are all living, breathing human beings.
It's no wonder that Lin Ye noticed the Kaz Star people's appearance was quite different from what he had imagined.
He initially thought that the species on this planet were just like the insectoid creatures in their Instance of Heart of the Swarm.
But that's not actually the case.
The Kaz Star people share many physical similarities with humans.
They also have an upright walking body structure, distinct facial features, and flexible limbs.
The difference lies in the two slender and sensitive antennae above their heads. These antennae are constantly wriggling, not only sensing subtle changes in the surrounding environment but also helping them better communicate with their companions.
Furthermore, compared to humans, the Kaz Star people have more limbs, which may explain their greater agility and nimbleness. Despite their numerous limbs, the Kaz Star people are actually slightly smaller than humans in overall size.
It looks quite cute overall.
The reason this planet was able to design such an insane Instance Heart of the Swarm is that, at the very beginning of its civilization, the Kaz Star people lived alongside insects.
Their food is insects, their energy comes from insects, and their means of transportation are also made of insects.
Under such circumstances, designing a bug- Instance is understandable.
[Honorable Civilization Guide, you can now customize your Firmament program, including a custom name, in-planet Instance battle rules, and points draw rules!]
[The Firmament Control system is a dynamic adjustment program; the Guide can then adjust the Firmament Rules in real time based on population fluctuations on Kazi Star.]
[Friendly reminder: If overly harsh conditions cause the planet's population to fall below normal levels, the planet's civilization will also perish more quickly due to the intense battles in the Instance.]
After a moment's thought, Lin Ye spoke directly to the Divine Firmament:
"I've made up my mind."
"First of all, please name my Firmament after me Lin Ye."
"Regarding the Instance battle rules, each person needs to enter the Instance twice a day, and there will be a rest period every five days."
"For the points-based system, we can use the same rebate ratio that Kazi Star used when controlling Azure Star."
Actually, this design doesn't make much sense. Since Azure Star has been able to continue for thousands of years, it's highly likely that similar rules will also allow Human Kazi Star to continue.
[The Divine Firmament has received the Guide's custom modification instructions!]
[The "Firmament" on the Kazi Star is being generated!]
[Generation rate: 1%...]
[10%...]
[100%]
Meanwhile, on the distant Kazi Star...
A chilling voice echoed from the heavens.
All the Kaz Star people ran outside and looked up at the pitch-black sky.
Because of its recent downgrade, the planet is still immersed in an atmosphere of sadness.
[Greetings, Challengers of Kazi Star! I am Lin Ye, the ruler of this world!]
[Next, I will lead everyone in the Instance battles. Instance battles are a beneficial project for improving the civilization of Kazi Star. All Dungeon Designers, please actively participate in Instance design! Let's create better Instance for this planet!]
