87: Energy Revolution! The Future of the Dragon Kingdom!

"Quick! Quick! Connect to Line 1 immediately! I need to report this right now!" Lin Zhan's voice had become somewhat hoarse due to extreme excitement.

"Yes, sir!"

However, before everyone could recover from the massive shock,

the golden treasure chest on the screen once again burst with brilliant light!

[Congratulations to Dragon Country for obtaining the SSS-grade evaluation bonus reward...]

"What? There's more?!"

Everyone was stunned.

Controllable Nuclear Fusion wasn't enough; there was actually a bonus reward?!

The value of this SSS-grade evaluation was simply too high!

Under everyone's tense gaze, another line of golden text slowly emerged.

[Congratulations to Dragon Country for obtaining the National Destiny reward: Desert Oasis Environmental Transformation Device (Large)!]

If the "Controllable Nuclear Fusion" from moments ago had driven everyone into a frenzy,

then this "Desert Oasis Device" left everyone in a state of dazed shock.

"De... Desert Oasis?" Li Guodong muttered blankly. "What kind of thing is that?"

"Could it be... a device that can turn deserts into oases?"

As soon as this thought appeared in everyone's minds, it made their scalps tingle with excitement.

Dragon Country was a vast land with abundant resources, but at the same time, it was a nation plagued by desertification.

In the expansive western regions, vast tracts of land were barren deserts and Gobi, severely restricting the country's development.

If these deserts could be turned into oases suitable for farming and living... what would that mean?

It meant that Dragon Country would suddenly gain millions of square kilometers of fertile land out of thin air!

It meant that food security, housing issues, environmental problems... a series of difficulties that had plagued Dragon Country for thousands of years would be easily resolved!

"One solves the energy problem."

"The other solves the land problem."

Su Yuan looked at these two rewards on the screen and muttered to himself, a tidal wave of emotion surging in his heart as well.

The national destiny arena never rewarded simple weapons or technology.

It rewarded national destiny! It rewarded the future!

It was using the most direct and blunt method to help the victor solve the most fundamental and core challenges on their path of development!

"Soaring..."

"This time, our Dragon Country is truly going to soar to the heavens!"

Tears shimmered in Lin Zhan's eyes as he looked at the rising Five-Star Red Flag on the screen. He seemed to see an unprecedentedly powerful and prosperous Great Dragon Country standing tall among the nations of the world!

Soon, the call was put through directly to the Command Center.

The entire Dragon Country was shaken.

A highest-level national meeting, which would determine the national destiny of Dragon Country for the next century, was urgently convened!

The entire state machine began to grind into motion with unprecedented efficiency!

A brand new era belonging to Dragon Country was about to arrive... At eight o'clock that evening.

Dragon Country National Television, News Broadcast.

The usually calm and dignified male anchor announced a heavyweight piece of news that would go down in history, his voice trembling slightly with an unprecedented excitement.

"Latest news from this station: our country has once again achieved a brilliant victory in the second national destiny arena challenge, obtaining an SSS-grade limit-breaking evaluation!"

"According to the reward mechanism of the national destiny arena, our country has obtained two key core technologies: 'Controllable Nuclear Fusion' and 'Desert Oasis Transformation'!"

"Starting today, our country will officially open a new chapter of energy revolution and environmental transformation. A brand new, great era belonging to Dragon Country has arrived!"

The moment this news was broadcasted,

the entire Dragon Country and its 1.4 billion people completely erupted!

"Holy crap! What did I just hear? Controllable Nuclear Fusion?!"

"It's true! Even the News Broadcast reported it! This is definitely real!"

"Hahahaha! Awesome! Our Dragon Country is awesome! The Dragon Team is awesome!"

"Energy revolution! Deserts turning into oases! My god! We're going to the moon!"

Countless families, offices, and streets erupted with cheers like a mountain tsunami!

People rushed out of their homes and onto the streets, waving the Five-Star Red Flag in their hands, excitedly hugging and celebrating with every stranger nearby!

Landmark buildings in major cities lit up with giant light shows saying "Dragon Country Must Win" and "Dragon Team is Mighty"!

Brilliant fireworks bloomed across the night sky nationwide, turning the entire Dragon Country into a city that never sleeps!

That night, no one slept!

Social media exploded even more fiercely.

"#Dragon Country Obtains Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology#"

"#Dragon Country to Start Energy Revolution#"

"#Dragon Team Obtains SSS Evaluation Again#"

One hot search term after another instantly dominated the entire list with unstoppable momentum, each followed by a bright red "Explosive" tag!

"In my lifetime! I'm actually witnessing history! From today on, is the price of electricity going to become dirt cheap?"

"The person above is thinking too small! This is about more than just electricity prices! This is the progress of human civilization! Our journey is the sea of stars!"

"Thank you, Dragon Team! You are the greatest heroes of Dragon Country! I'm kneeling to you!"

"Wuhu, this makes me tear up. I have no regrets being born in China in this life; I want to be a Dragon Country person in the next life too!"

Countless netizens expressed their excitement in the comments section, and the entire internet turned into an ocean of joy.

The next day, as soon as the stock market opened,

all stocks related to energy, infrastructure, environmental protection, and technology hit their daily limit up immediately!

Countless investors looked at their accounts glowing red with profit, grinning from ear to ear.

Capital also smelled the business opportunity and began to frantically pour into these industries that were about to experience explosive growth.

Countless experts and scholars also tirelessly explained the great significance of "Controllable Nuclear Fusion" and "Desert Oasis Transformation" to the public on major media outlets.

"Friends, this is not science fiction, this is reality! A brand new energy era is within reach!"

"We can foresee that in the near future, electric vehicles will completely replace fuel vehicles, every household will use nearly free electricity, and our sky will be bluer than ever before!"

"And the Desert Oasis Transformation is a great project that will benefit the current generation and all future generations! It will completely change our country's geographical landscape and leave a legacy of green mountains and clear waters for our descendants!"

The entire Dragon Country was immersed in a fanatical atmosphere of optimism, upward mobility, hope, and pride.

As the greatest contributors to all this, the twenty members of the Dragon Team received a hero's welcome of the highest specification the moment they were teleported back to the National Destiny Base.

The Base Commander personally led all the remaining officers and soldiers to line up on the tarmac to greet them.

When Wang Yi and the others walked out of the teleportation pod with their tired bodies, they were met with thunderous applause and earth-shaking cheers!

"Welcome home, heroes!"

"The Dragon Team is mighty!"

Looking at these excited and respectful faces, and hearing the heartfelt shouts in their ears, the team members—especially the new ones—were all a bit overwhelmed, and their eyes instantly turned red.

They had only done what they thought they should do.

They hadn't expected to receive such high honors.

"Salute!"

At the Base Commander's order, all the officers and soldiers snapped a standard military salute toward Wang Yi and the others!
