One of the military experts suggested, "Your Highness, for an interstellar civilization that has just stepped into the universe, even the population is very valuable. I still advise against slaughtering their population. A rookie civilization that has developed to this level by its own strength still has quite a bit of potential."
"This civilization's populace is usually full of vitality and ambition, making them perfect candidates to become scientists. At most, we can offer them a slightly better treatment."
"Exactly, exactly, fortunately, this is a rookie civilization; otherwise, they might not have fallen for it! The Ten-thousand-year Worm is quite renowned after all..." The officials around him chatted and laughed merrily.
The scientific research strength of the Badit Civilization itself was not strong; otherwise, they wouldn't have just barely reached the threshold of a third-level civilization after such a long time, but they had one trump card—cultural brainwashing!
