"Uh... Earth is actually a civilization of magical pets?"

"Strange, why isn't it something like a technological civilization, an industrial civilization, or a black silk civilization? Could it be that there were magical pets or something similar on Earth before, but they're extinct now?"

Looking at the cube-shaped screen above Jinghai City, Li Qingyu scratched his head speechlessly.

Demons, fairies, and the like...

Traces of this phenomenon have appeared in the myths and legends of Earth. A magical pet civilization... this is ridiculous, it's not like we're making an animated film.

Li Qingyu glanced at it, then rolled over and continued snoring away, the husky's tongue practically lolling out to its genitals. Feeling a bit bored, Li Qingyu kicked it.

Could it be that in some places on Earth, there exist magical creatures that ordinary people cannot see?

"Go, Pippi Chuck! Use Thunderbolt!"

Li Qingyu suddenly shouted and struck what he thought was a cool and imposing pose, squinting and coldly looking ahead.

a long time.

A night breeze.

The wind blew in through the window, making Li Qingyu's legs shiver.

Forget it, if the sky falls, someone taller will hold it up. We, the people, must trust the country; the country will definitely resolve such a small matter.

Besides, if you randomly select 100 people out of 7 billion on the entire planet, you're unlikely to pick me, right? Hundreds of people haven't even won a scratch-off lottery.

Li Qingyu was very confident in his luck.

I'll just grab some instant noodles to fill my stomach.

I'm exhausted after working hard all night... I've finished eating, time to keep working hard!

Damn it, I was so close to unlocking it!

..............................

Just as Li Qingyu was slurping his instant noodles and logging back into the simulation game...

United Nations conference room.

The delegates fell silent upon seeing the three faintly glowing cards that suddenly appeared on the conference table.

"Shall we continue with the exploration plan we just discussed?"

"Also, these three cards that suddenly appeared, shouldn't they be those seeded player designation cards?"

The Maoist representative glanced at the U.S. representative.

The US representative glanced at the Chinese representative.

The Chinese representative glanced at the Mao representative.

After scratching his leg hair, the Mao representative said, "Let's continue with the exploration plan. If we lose the competition, we'll throw mushrooms at him."

"Yes, throw mushrooms."

"Okay, let's throw a super-sized mushroom!"

The three leaders nodded in tacit agreement.

"Shall we each get one of these cards?"

"Agreed." "Seconded."

As for the representatives of the smaller countries, they served as mere background figures, watching the leaders divide up the designated cards with their words. They blinked, looking completely bewildered as to why they were there.

..........................

"Attention, people of China! Attention, people of China!"

"Whoever is selected must compete well. Don't worry about anything else. Trust the country."

"The state supports your parents, your spouse, your children, and even your pets."

"We must unite and follow the instructions of our seeded player, Colonel Chu."

"Win glory for the country and achieve victory!"

Li Qingyu slept soundly until evening after working on his liver all night.

While soaking their feet in goji berry water, they watched the newly established live broadcast room of the Chinese government, waiting for the Civilization Competition to begin.

The official live broadcast room of China displayed the image below the cube-shaped screen of Yanjing City. A beautiful female host was passionately recounting the various incentive policies the country provides for its athletes.

Li Qingyu was somewhat tempted by what he said.

Among them, the Chinese seed player, Chu Xuan, was also introduced.

The selected contestants from China are to follow Chu Xuan's instructions and not act on their own.

The husky, who had also slept with Li Qingyu all day, had just woken up. It stretched and then secretly licked Li Qingyu's foot bath water.

He would lick the foot bath water for a while, and then lick Li Qingyu's leg hair.

Li Qingyu rested his chin on his hand, watching the live stream with a serious expression and lost in thought.

I wonder what kind of fairies the Giant Tree Civilization has?

The kind with clothes on... or the kind without clothes on?

And why aren't witches considered human? What kind of witches are they?

The kind with clothes on... or the kind without clothes on?

Just as Li Qingyu was analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of other civilizations, and the countdown to the match in the live stream had only ten seconds left, a familiar mechanical voice suddenly rang in Li Qingyu's mind.

[The Seventh Universe System reminds you]

You have been selected for the Civilization Conquest Tournament.

[Because you are a contestant in the Pet Civilization, you may bring one pet.]

Please prepare for the competition.

Um?

Um!!!

Li Qingyu was stunned for a moment.

I was selected?

Magical Pet?

Li Qingyu glanced at the husky that was secretly drinking the foot bath water.

The husky sensed its owner's gaze, raised its head, and looked at Li Qingyu with an innocent expression.

Well....

Could it be what I'm thinking?

In a daze, Li Qingyu's vision went black.

..........................

A pristine white square.

In the center of the square, an enormous sphere of light was emitting a soft white glow.

103 Blue Star contestants suddenly appeared here.

In an instant, the once quiet square became noisy.
