207: Chapter 207: Bonds at Full Strength? Fourth Son Officially Announced

After Lin Zhe absorbed the Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Marrow, the fluctuations of the Power of Rules across the entire Dragon Domain had yet to dissipate.

On the square of Black Wind Valley, the Dragon Race remained kneeling in a vast expanse.

Countless old dragons, hatchlings, and dragon civilians were all feeling the newly stacked cultivation buffs.

Cultivation speed rose again.

Hatchling talent rose again.

The Dragon Crystal Training Ground was even opened to the commoners.

With this wave of benefits, the entire Dragon Race was completely won over.

Ao Ningshuang stood by Lin Zhe's side, her silver hair fluttering in the night wind, her cold and elegant face showing a rare softness.

She didn't say any more flowery words.

She simply took a step closer to him.

Just then.

Buzz—

In Lin Zhe's mind, the cold system notification suddenly exploded.

[Ding! Detected 100% Favorability with top-tier female NPC · Dragon Empress Ao Ningshuang!]

[Ding! Fourth Bond trigger progress has reached 100%!]

[Ding! Gestation conditions met!]

[Ding! The fourth child, Lin Jin, has officially begun gestation!]

Lin Zhe's eyes flickered slightly.

A second later, the system notifications continued to scroll out.

[Ding! Detected offspring's initial grade: Legendary Grade!]

[Ding! Identity Binding: Supreme of Ten Thousand Dragons · Ultimate World BOSS!]

[Ding! After this offspring is born, they will control all Dragon Domain rules, the authority to adjust God-tier equipment drop rates, and the authority to mobilize the combat power of the Dragon Race across the entire server!]

One sentence after another.

Ruthless.

Simply too ruthless.

Lin Chen is an epic grade Novice Village Archon.

Lin Yueyao is the epic grade Great Priestess of the Elves.

Lin Zhao is still in gestation, already bound as the Human Race's Imperial Heir.

And now, the fourth child Lin Jin hasn't even been born yet, and the system directly gave him a Legendary initial grade.

His identity was even more ridiculous.

Supreme of Ten Thousand Dragons.

Ultimate World BOSS.

Authority to adjust God-tier equipment drop rates.

Authority to mobilize the combat power of the Dragon Race server-wide.

This was no longer an ordinary offspring.

This was the true ceiling of combat power for the entire Dragon Domain in the future.

Ao Ningshuang seemed to have sensed something as well, her body trembling slightly.

She looked down at her lower abdomen, a clear look of astonishment appearing in her silver eyes for the first time.

In the next breath, that astonishment turned into fervor.

"Lin Zhe..."

Her voice was very low, yet she couldn't suppress the trembling.

"I felt it."

Lin Zhe looked at her and gave a faint nod.

"Mhm."

"Our child."

The tips of Ao Ningshuang's ears instantly turned red.

But she didn't hide.

Instead, in front of all the dragons, she raised her hand and pressed it against her abdomen, a touch of pride added to her cold, elegant face.

And at this very moment.

BOOM!!!

The sky shook violently.

A crimson, server-wide pinned announcement streaked directly across the entire sky of the miracle world!

[Server-Wide Pinned Announcement!]

[The Fourth Bond between Dragon Empress Ao Ningshuang and Lin Zhe has been officially achieved!]

[The fourth child, Lin Jin, has begun gestation!]

[Initial Grade: Legendary NPC!]

[Future Identity: Supreme of Ten Thousand Dragons · Ultimate World BOSS!]

[Upon birth, they will control: All Dragon Domain rules, the authority to adjust God-tier equipment drop rates, and the authority to mobilize the combat power of the Dragon Race across the entire server!]

The large crimson characters remained lit for a full thirty seconds.

This wasn't an ordinary announcement.

It was pinned for the whole server.

All players, whether they were in dungeons, the wilderness, main cities, or the auction house, had their vision filled by this row of blood-red characters at the same time.

In an instant.

All twelve billion players across the server received the news simultaneously.

The server directly lagged for three seconds.

Three seconds later.

The world channel exploded.

"Holy crap!!!!"

"The fourth child has been officially announced!"

"Legendary NPC? Born as a Legendary Grade?!"

"Ultimate World BOSS? Big Boss Lin Zhe's son is a future BOSS?"

"Authority to adjust God-tier equipment drop rates? In the future, will we have to look at Big Boss Lin Zhe's face to farm God-tier gear?"

"That NPC is the BOSS's father?!"

"May Prince Lin Jin be blessed with eternal fortune!!!"

"Congratulations Big Boss Lin Zhe! Congratulations Your Majesty Dragon Empress!"

The world channel moved so fast the words were a blur.

Blessings, shock, brown-nosing, and screenshots were all mixed together.

The official backend alarms were ringing frantically.

The technicians' voices were cracking from shouting.

"Manager Zhou! The server-wide channel has crashed!"

"The announcement trigger volume is too high! Twelve billion players got the pop-up at once!"

"The number of teleportation requests to the Dragon Domain is skyrocketing!"

Zhou Ming's face turned green, then red in the next second.

"Expand capacity!"

"Open all backup servers!"

"Don't let the celebration crash the system!"

The situation here in the Dragon Domain was even more exaggerated.

The teleportation array in Wanlong City was as bright as day.

Countless players rushed outside the Dragon Domain Palace, holding fireworks, streamers, and Dragon Crystal fragments in their hands.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Fireworks exploded one after another in the night sky.

[Congratulations to Prince Lin Jin!]

[Big Boss Lin Zhe is invincible!]

[May Your Majesty Dragon Empress be blessed with eternal fortune!]

[The future Ultimate BOSS is awesome!]

While setting off fireworks, the players were frantically taking screenshots.

"This must be kept as a memento!"

"When Prince Lin Jin is born in the future, I'll be an OG fan!"

"If I offer a blessing now, can he drop a Divine Artifact for me later?"

"Say no more, I'm kneeling first to show my respect!"

On the square of Black Wind Valley, the entire Dragon Race was also in a complete frenzy.

The Great Elder's eyes were filled with tears, and his voice trembled.

"Supreme of Ten Thousand Dragons..."

"My Dragon Race is finally going to have a true Sovereign!"

"And it's the bloodline of Mr. Lin Zhe and Her Majesty!"

Thud!

He knelt down once again.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations to the Co-Lord!"

"We respectfully welcome the gestation of Prince Lin Jin!"

All the dragons kowtowed in unison.

"We welcome Prince Lin Jin!"

"We welcome Prince Lin Jin!"

The sound waves surged straight into the night sky.

Ao Ningshuang stood beside Lin Zhe, her silver eyes filled with uncontrollable light.

She had always been cold and aloof.

But at this moment, she did not hide her emotions.

She directly raised her hand, her voice spreading throughout the entire Dragon Domain.

"Today, Lin Jin begins gestation."

"The Dragon Domain shall celebrate together."

"All players shall enjoy another three days of 30% off for Dragon Crystal exchanges!"

"All members of the Vanguard Army who participated in the battle shall receive an additional hour of free usage of the Dragon Crystal Training Ground!"

An announcement popped up simultaneously.

[Dragon Domain Announcement: To celebrate the beginning of the fourth child Lin Jin's gestation, Dragon Empress Ao Ningshuang announces: All players server-wide will enjoy 3 days of 30% off for Dragon Crystal exchanges!]

[All Vanguard Army players who participated in the battle will receive an additional 1 hour of free usage of the Dragon Crystal Training Ground!]

The players went crazy again.

"More benefits!"

"30% off Dragon Crystals for another three days? Sweet!"

"Prince Lin Jin is giving out benefits before he's even born?"

"I'm definitely stanning this kid!"

In Lin Zhe's mind, the system notification rang out again.

[Ding! Server-wide player blessings and support levels have skyrocketed!]

[Ding! Faith and submission levels across the entire Dragon Domain have significantly increased!]

[Ding! Host's Power of Rules has increased by 2%!]

[Ding! Host has unlocked the authority to adjust rules across the entire Dragon Domain!]

Boom—

In an instant, Lin Zhe's Rule Perception suddenly expanded.

It was no longer just a small portion of the Dragon Domain.

It was the entire Dragon Domain.

Wanlong City.

The Dragon Crystal Mine.

Dragon Flame Valley.

Black Wind Valley.

The Border Dragon Mountains.

All dungeon entrances, training grounds, dragon military camps, and hatchling nurseries surfaced within his perception.

Every line of rules unfolded before his eyes.

Lin Zhe's fingertips moved slightly.

The rule light patterns of the entire Dragon Domain bowed down accordingly.

Ao Ningshuang noticed this and looked up at him.

There was no wariness in her eyes.

Only trust.

"The Dragon Domain is in your hands."

Lin Zhe looked indifferently at the crimson announcement that had yet to fade from the night sky.

"Mhm."

In the distance, the players' fireworks were still exploding.

The world channel was still scrolling.

And that pinned announcement about Lin Jin, even though it had disappeared, its aftershocks were still frantically spreading throughout the entire server.
