Chapter 254: Chapter 248: The Tribute Is Ready
It was in the brief moment when Prince Bent’s heart had stilled that his pupils suddenly contracted.
Beside him, Reith also sensed something.
The next moment—
Boom!
A massive column of light, carrying an indescribable suppression, thunderously descended before them. In that instant, Prince Bent, including Reith and even the carefully selected “Guard of Honor,” all subconsciously knelt to the ground.
Without exception!
Prince Bent didn’t even understand what had happened, as if some grand presence had arrived!
Only when the column of light disappeared did the feeling gradually fade.
But it didn’t completely disperse; rather, it clearly lingered on the ground before them, proving to everyone that what had happened was no illusion.
Under these circumstances, all of Prince Bent’s preparations, all his predictions, were destroyed in an instant.
He somewhat blankly raised his head, seemingly unable to come back to his senses.
Until he saw individuals dressed in uniform, standing in orderly ranks, emanating an astonishing presence!

Yes, even to the naked eye, his Yodora Kingdom’s national guard, cultivated at great cost, was completely overshadowed!
There was simply no comparison.
This was actually the effect of a military formation.
At this moment, military formations had become a compulsory course for armies of Human Civilization, and had been profoundly studied. In the past five and a half years, various reforms had been made, including those that directly suppressed enemies with “military presence,” and the effects were significant.
Formations consisting of hundreds of Level 17 or higher soldiers could, in terms of presence, completely overpower a third-stage powerhouse.
And knowing his mission, General Yang Jun naturally did not hold back.
He directly suppressed them with power!
In some ways, this was also a characteristic that extended from Shen Hao.
General Yang Jun easily found Prince Bent, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Although to humans, all Yodora People appear quite similar, their clothing had very clear distinctions.
“I am the supreme commander of the forces stationed in the Yodora Kingdom, General Yang Jun,” Yang Jun stepped forward, his voice steady, “Reports say that the Yodora Kingdom is under attack by dimensional life forms? Tell me the exact location and arrange for a spaceship to take us there.”
“Now?” Prince Bent clearly hesitated.
He had now fully regained his senses, half nervous and half excited.
Nervous because the strength of this civilization seemed far beyond his expectations; just this scene alone was beyond anything anticipated.
It was even to the point where betting all he had might still not be enough to compete!
Firstly, they hadn’t used a spaceship!
This meant it was some kind of powerful Spiritual Ability Equipment, or a Spiritual Ability Talent!
If it was the former, it would be better; if it was the latter…
Moreover, the feeling of suppression when the light column appeared still lingered, making his entire heart quiver, having never felt such powerful aura before.
However, he was also excited because of the other party’s strength.
The Yodora Civilization indeed desperately needed a new powerful ally!
As long as the other party’s appetite wasn’t bigger than that of the Life Empire, no, even if it were somewhat larger, it would still be acceptable.
“Respected General Yang Jun,” Prince Bent even maintained a kneeling position, “The prince has already prepared a lavish banquet and gifts for you. Having come from afar, why not rest for a moment…”
“No need!” General Yang Jun interrupted him, his voice stern, “We are a civilization that values efficiency, and efficiency means life. Banquets are pointless wastage to us. Take us to address your issue, right now!”
This was also according to the arrangement of the Analysis Department.
Shen Hao nodded his approval.
And this was no lie.
Even if the culture of the previous human civilization hadn’t valued efficiency like this, at least in this trial, it must do so.
They already knew what the trial was, who the enemy was, there was no more time to waste.
Efficiency must be increased!
“Yes,” Prince Bent responded gravely.
This style was completely different from that of the Life Empire.
The Life Empire would even use the dumbest methods, consuming a vast amount of time and resources, all for a research result that wasn’t important.
Prince Bent also reminded himself internally.
The backing from now on was different; he—including the entire Yodora Kingdom—must change.
It’s just about efficiency.
Prince Bent quickly gave orders to dispatch a spaceship, granting full authority for direct jump!
This series of actions also made General Yang Jun nod internally.
According to the reports from “Black Silver”, Prince Bent, though currently only a prince, already had a status no less than that of the king.
He was already one of the highest-status princes of Yodora Kingdom, for his Spiritual Ability Talent had reached the fourth level, essentially securing his position as the next king. And now, with the nation in poor condition, the current king already thought of abdicating, essentially delegating authority to him.
In this universe, a Spiritual Ability Talent represented potential, even status.
This aspect did comply with a world order dominated by the transcendent.
However, the aura and strength displayed by Yang Jun and his men, although exciting Prince Bent and other Yodora People like Reith, made certain individuals very unhappy.
Right behind Prince Bent, someone within the King’s personal guard sent all the details of the current situation and their feelings to a certain place.
