Li Qi looked over the battle reports from the front. He was far from the front lines, and his contributions were enough to earn him a period of rest, so there was no rush.
With the Immortal Heavens joining in, the Demonic Path, true dragons, and shamans joining forces, Human Path's situation was not looking too good.
But... Human Path had brought out many strange things, such as... a huge number of geniuses.
A truly huge number. No one knew where they had sprung from...
But they seemed to be connected to the School of Miscellany.
Besides that, the Demonic Path seemed to be investing more and more heavily. Human Path needed to find a solution, or defeat would come swiftly.
Putting away the battle report, Li Qi looked down below.
Skyscrapers, all kinds of flying motorcycles beneath them, vast numbers of automated facilities, machine servants, and local natives covered from head to toe in Prosthetic Body Modifications.
Neon lights flickered, appearing especially dazzling against the darkness of night.
Though that was not quite right. This was not actually cyberpunk; its artistic style merely resembled it.
In the world of the Forward Alliance, there were no megacorporations, nor had Human Path's evil arts ever existed. In truth, while their political system could not achieve absolute fairness, it still had an excellent mechanism for advancement.
Of course, that was necessary as well.
The turnover of people in this world was too fast. In a few hundred years, an entire generation could be completely replaced. Moreover, whether it was strength or anything else depended on the technological development of the civilization as a whole. Thus, smooth and fair paths for advancement were essential. Otherwise, they could never have reached their current state.
They were not strong because a certain powerhouse was strong.
