Chapter 1878 Civilizational Confidence

Chapter 1877 Civilization Will <TOC> Chapter 1879 Return to Initial Heart City

In a moment of agitation and worry, Freud expressed his concerns, when Sanders spoke again: “Although for those living here, like the residents of Initial Heart City, the impact might be significant, I still believe that the effect will eventually subside over time.”

Angel asked, “Why does Mentor think so?”

Sanders, glancing at Freud’s complex expression and then at Angel, seemed to understand something and chuckled lightly, saying, “Because these two are not on the same level at all.”

Freud, lifting his head with a puzzled look towards Sanders, wondered: Does Lord Phantom Master mean that the humans of Initial Heart City are utterly helpless against the Dream Plant Fairies?

Although Freud himself thought so, the situation seemed dire if even Sanders agreed.

However, Sanders then offered an unexpected answer: “Humans are far stronger than Dream Plant Fairies.”

After throwing out such a response, Sanders didn’t leave them in suspense and explained: “While the humans of Initial Heart City might seem weaker individually compared to Dream Plant Fairies, individual strength isn’t everything.”

“Besides, individual power isn’t a big issue as there are various ways to enhance it, like relying on Sinful Monsters or the future inclusion of more people into the Wilderness of Dreams, all of which can strengthen human overall combat capabilities.”

Sanders’ answer made Freud nod inwardly. Indeed, he was right. Although currently at a disadvantage, there was still hope for the future.

However, if individual strength could be improved, what if the Dream Plant Fairies launched a civilization invasion? 

Freud’s doubt was quickly answered.

“As for the problem of civilization, it’s not even on the same scale. Even if the people of Initial Heart City are not extraordinary beings but ordinary people. Yet, even as ordinary people, what stands behind them is a wizard civilization that shines through the ages, has boundless influence, and suppresses countless pan-dimensional worlds!”

“In this universe, only the wizard civilization involves human participation and development, and only in the Wizarding World do true humans exist. Thus, in a sense, the wizard civilization also represents human civilization!”

“This is a human civilization that has settled over countless years, refined through the historical process like gold from sand, removing the dross to keep the essence and continuing to thrive!”

“Faced with a nascent civilization that hasn’t even been around for a day, with its foundational settlement not yet fully stable, to worry about a civilizational invasion is absurd.”

“This is a laughable question that doesn’t even require thought.”

“If human civilization lacks even this bit of self-confidence, what does it amount to?”

“Perhaps, the Dream Plant Fairy might influence the lives and progress of humans in the Wilderness of Dreams to some extent, but it’s impossible to gain any advantage in a clash of civilizations.”

“It’s even possible that the civilization could be assimilated.”

“So, time is in the hands of humans, not in the hands of the Dream Plant Fairy,” Sanders paused, his gaze shifting to Freud, whose expression transformed from initial confusion and worry to calm enlightenment, evidently absorbing Sanders’ words.

“Looking at the current situation, the Dream Plant Fairy will definitely affect the existing structure of the Wilderness of Dreams, but, in my view, this influence is more beneficial than harmful.”

As Sanders spoke, he gazed towards the entrance of this valley.

Green mist drifted in, influenced by the Mother Tree, falling onto the earth, and in the blink of an eye, tender shoots broke through the soil.

The energy of the Mother Tree had weakened slightly, so these buds did not grow into mature plants as quickly as before.

However, at that moment, several Dream Plant Fairies, the size of butterflies, humming a song without words, arrived where the buds were growing. Colorful specks of light fell from them, and the buds, as if nourished, suddenly grew taller, turning into mature plants.

As they flew, the seeds soaked in the earth experienced a rapid growth spurt. Aside from the seeds in the green fog, they also spread their own seeds, and where they lingered for a few seconds, bright clusters of flowers would certainly sprout.

In just a few minutes, the barren valley was filled with an abundance of flowers and large trees.

Freud also witnessed this scene and agreed with Sanders’ earlier statement that, for the time being, the Dream Plant Fairies could quickly make barren lands flourish, which was more beneficial than harmful to the Wilderness of Dreams.

Remembering Sanders’ earlier words about ‘long-term vision’ and ‘Civilizational Confidence,’ Freud felt much better. However, he still felt somewhat guilty for not having successfully taken on the power.

“Although Freud’s attempt at assuming power failed this time, I’ve gained a valuable piece of data, which is greatly useful for calculating the success rate of new power assumptions,” Sanders said, squinting his eyes. “And, I have a small hypothesis.”

Angel: “What hypothesis?”

“I’ll tell you after I confirm this test.”

“But I can reveal that this hypothesis is related to my success rate in taking on new powers. If I succeed next time, then this hypothesis might just be true,” Sanders continued, pausing and looking at Freud. “If this hypothesis is proven, I think Freud should try to take on new powers. The success rate could be as high as 90%.”

Hearing this, Angel’s eyes lit up: “Then, when does Mentor plan to take on new powers?”

Freud, having twice shouldered the burden of power and failed, may not show it, but Angel knows well the tremendous blow this has dealt him, perhaps even robbing him of the courage to take on new powers again. If Sanders’ hypothesis can be confirmed, and Freud successfully integrates new powers, this could swiftly pull him from the despondent vortex he’s trapped in.

“I need to digest this newly acquired data, re-adjust and recalculate the formula, so it might take about three days.”

Angel pondered for a moment. Although Freud’s failure in taking on powers didn’t cause him severe harm, he still needed to adjust his state; three days should suffice.

After discussing the matter of new powers, Sanders suddenly shifted the topic back to the Tree Civilization.

“More than the matter of the Dream Plant Fairy, what really concerns me is the Tree Civilization itself.”

When Sanders said this, his expression turned very serious: “I used to think this particular Nightmare Domain was of great research value, until I witnessed the birth of this Tree Civilization.”

“This has transcended the scope of the Nightmare Domain. The beginnings of civilization, the pioneering of continents, it’s almost like the primal budding of a real world.”

Sanders felt that the potential of the Wilderness of Dreams might be even more terrifying than he had imagined.
