From Passive to Active Abilities

These were tangible benefits, foreseeable benefits.

If the difference in warship combat power displayed by civilizations of the same level due to differing depths of research across various scientific fields was the external manifestation of a civilization's strength, its military manifestation, the cultivation of external techniques, then this improvement was internal strengthening, the cultivation of internal techniques.

When two civilizations of the same level went to war, a civilization with powerful external techniques could certainly dominate for a time. But if it could not directly crush an opponent with weaker external techniques but strong internal techniques in one wave, then the strength of those internal techniques would gradually reveal itself. The civilization relying solely on powerful external techniques would find that, as the war dragged on, its opponent became increasingly formidable and might even turn the tables.

This showed just how important it was for a civilization to cultivate both internally and externally.

Human Civilization had always relied on the power of Alloy No. 1 and Alloy No. 2, as well as the combat strength brought by Mechanical Mastery, making it quite powerful among civilizations of the same level. The Kun-Tai Civilization and Crimson Flame Civilization had been defeated by humanity in this way.

The daily routines of each race were basically influenced by their home planets, shaped by billions of years of solar and lunar cycles on those planets.
