Not to mention, there were over 400 eighth tier and 17 nth tier powerhouses.
If the affiliated tribes were included, this number could rise by several percentage points.
Such a large number of extraordinary warriors with such terrifying extraordinary ranks was only possible due to the abundant spiritual energy in the medium realm.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to sustain.
However, despite this, the Eternal Knight Empire had begun to cut back on citizen welfare.
There was no choice.
Without cuts, it would be impossible to sustain them according to previous standards.
Generally mid-tier extraordinary warriors could live to around 120 years old.
According to the welfare rules established at the time, the empire could not afford to support them.
It should be noted that as extraordinary ranks increase, fertility tends to decrease.
To be honest, the current human population of the Eternal Knight Empire, aside from their similar appearance to the humans of the Knight tribe, could be considered two entirely different races in other aspects.
Now, as long as they did not die prematurely and could grow up smoothly, they could enter the mid-tier extraordinary ranks upon reaching adulthood.
Do you call this human? Therefore, their declining fertility is quite normal.
The more powerful a race is, the more difficult it is to pass on their lineage.
This is a rule inscribed in the bloodlines of all beings.
If they wanted to enhance fertility, there are ways to do so.
They could refer to the methods of the dragon race.
Pure blood dragons are rare, but there are quite a few subdragon tribes that possess dragon bloodlines.
The current human race in the empire in terms of bloodline strength naturally cannot compare to dragons, but if they wished, they could indeed achieve similar results.
However, in this world that values strength, they're likely unwilling to do so.
No one hopes their descendants will be weaklings within the divine realm space.
Sushingu spent several days gathering information through believers from various locations, thoroughly reviewing the situation of the entire empire.
After a long time, he sighed softly.
A hint of a smile on his face.
The changes are indeed enormous.
In just 50 years, it has developed to this extent.
It wasn't just the Eternal Knight Empire that had changed.
The development speed of other affiliated tribes, while not as fast as the empires, was also quite rapid due to various foundational enhancements.
To be honest, whether it was the Eternal Knight Empire or those affiliated tribes, their development speed had somewhat exceeded Sue Shing Yu's expectations.
For the people of the Empire, 50 years is not a short time.
with so many good things and with the rulers of the empire working so hard, it is only natural that everyone is united and that development has reached this point.
However, for sushing you, 50 years is indeed too short.
According to the systems conversion, at a time ratio of 1 360, 50 years is actually less than 2 months in the main dimension.
To put it in a more vivid analogy, it's like finishing a semester in college, going home for vacation, and suddenly finding that the area that was still under construction now has a bunch of high-rise buildings and even a shopping mall to visit.
A remote area has suddenly become bustling and prosperous.
The changes are too great.
However, this also raises a question.
How should the empire develop next? Looking at the blank paper in his hand filled with a bunch of chaotic scribbles, Sushing Yu fell silent for a moment and began to contemplate the future development of the empire.
Expanding territory is unquestionable.
No matter when, the more land, the better.
After all, if nothing else, it can still be used for farming and raising livestock.
After years of reconnaissance by the Empire, the overall situation of this dimension has emerged.
Firstly, it is a large dimension.
Most players home dimensions are actually large dimensions.
In terms of area, it is several times larger than the planet he lived on before his transmigration with a land to sea ratio of four six.
The entire dimensions land mainly consists of three continents.
The eastern continent, the northern continent, and the western continent.
The former eastern continent was a wilderness with no powerful forces.
Highle transcendence could almost roam freely across this land.
Therefore, after the rise of the eternal knight empire, it naturally became the undisputed master of this continent.
To the northwest of the empire, the area referred to by the empire-es citizens as the northern continent does not have a unified empire or a clear ruling power.
However, this does not mean that the northern continent is weak.
That land is equally incredibly powerful.
The northern continent has hundreds of kingdoms forming a superpower known as the alliance of 100 nations with varying strengths among its members.
The weaker ones have less than a million people and in terms of combat power are not even comparable to the great lords within the eternal knight empire.
The stronger kingdoms have tens of millions of citizens, armies numbering in the millions and highle experts exceeding a 100.
As for the western continent, it is home to a superpower known as the blood empire.
The blood empire is a super empire established by the blood race, occupying the entire western continent.
Its population counts in the hundreds of millions with millions of troops and highle experts exceeding four figures and is said that there are top beings at the demagod level.
According to the information gathered by the Eternal Knight Empire, the Blood Empire has been established for 2,000 years, making it a true Millennium Empire.
Its foundation is profound, being the only force in the entire dimension that clearly possesses seventh tier legions.
The Alliance of 100 nations in the northern continent was initially established to resist the expansion of the blood empire.
unwilling to be annexed.
Led by three top kingdoms, it consists of over a 100 kingdoms forming a defensive organization.
However, even though they join the same organization, the northern continent has not settled down.
Conflicts between the countries remain constant and wars frequently break out.
But to say that the alliance of 100 nations is useless would not be entirely true.
At least under the alliance's supervision, the powers in the northern continent, even if they do engage in combat, will maintain a certain bottom line.
Sometimes due to disputes at the borders, they can even resolve issues directly through negotiation under the alliance's guarantee.
Although the alliance of 100 nations does not guarantee stability in the northern continent, it has preserved the overall strength of the northern continent.
However, recently the kingdoms of the northern continent have been under significant pressure.
This is because the eastern continent, once referred to as a wasteland, has unexpectedly risen to power.
And judging by the situation, it seems to be a super empire that can compete with the blood empire of the western continent.
This has suddenly caused all the forces in the northern continent to feel a wave of anxiety and unrest.
There is no way around it.
They are situated in the northern continent which happens to be the junction of the eastern and western continents.
Regardless of which power on either side wants to expand its territory, the only option is the northern continent.
The alliance of 100 nations, the blood empire and the sea tribe.
There are indeed plenty of troubles and none of them are easy opponents.
Sushingu pondered and muttered to himself.
Indeed, unifying a dimension is not that simple.
Just the visible troubles are so numerous.
And I don't even know what else lurks behind the scenes.
Unifying the dimension.
This is Sue Shing Yu's thought and also what he will do in the future.
Whether to expand territory, gain more land to support the growing number of citizens of the empire or to break through to the demagod level and achieve true godhood.
Unifying the entire dimension is imperative.
unifying the entire dimension, mastering the world's consciousness, and transforming this dimension into his base of operations.
There are many benefits to mastering the world's consciousness.
Without mentioning the others, let's just highlight a few points.
Once he masters the world's consciousness, he can become the lord of the dimension.
And the lord can increase their power level within their native dimension, making it possible to battle demigods as true gods.
Furthermore, the lord of the dimension has a unique trait.
Even if the true spirit perishes and the body is destroyed, as long as the dimension still exists, they can revive once more.
After mastering the world's consciousness, he can also freely mobilize the powers of the dimension all through the weather and ensure that the entire dimension remains in a state of favorable conditions.
Additionally, only by completely unifying the dimension and mastering the world's consciousness can sushi utilize the rewards obtained from the system to elevate the dimensions level, promoting it from a large dimension to an extreme large dimension.
Without mentioning anything else, just the benefits listed above are enough to make sushing you excited.
However, achieving this goal is not easy and the time consumed will be quite lengthy.
Well, let's take it slow.
After all, there is plenty of time.
