67: Is it ringing yet? Give it a ring!

The appearance of Yuan Lao can be described as shocking the world!

In the history of the Game of National Destiny, to be able to make an existence empowered by the [Chess Rules] voluntarily retreat, and even seem to be expressing respect—

This scene was absurd to the point of defying all reason.

Let alone seeing or hearing about it, if one hadn't experienced it firsthand, no one would believe it!

This is even more significant than the Dragon Country winning the Game of National Destiny!

Winning the Game of National Destiny grants national destiny and gains experience for the participating [Strategist] and [Roleplayer].

But the shock brought by Yuan Lao gave the Dragon Country glory and self-confidence:

From this day forward, from the very moment Yuan Lao appeared, who dares to say that the Huaxia Civilization inherited by the Dragon Country is a trash civilization?

Huaxia Civilization is a trash civilization?

My Huaxia has Yuan Lao, what do you have?

My Huaxia made 'special contributions to all of humanity' in the old era; do your [Heroic Spirits] have such achievements?

No?

If not, then shut up!

The self-confidence of the Dragon Country people, which had been dragged down for centuries due to poor results in the Game of National Destiny, would inevitably be completely changed by the appearance of Yuan Lao!

The hearts of the people are far more important than the numerical values of national destiny.

This was true in the old era, and it is the same in the new era!

Of course, the appearance of Yuan Lao also made many people extremely unhappy.

It is unknown what the expression of that commander from the Sakura Country Support Group is now, but the infuriated commentator Heller is truly very unhappy.

"What is there to be proud of? What is there to be smug about? So what if you placed a [Heroic Spirit] that can appear during the descent stage? Isn't it still unable to squeeze into the top three? Isn't it still unable to deal with nightfall? I've seen unreliable people, but I've never seen a Dragon Country [Strategist] as unreliable as this one. The Heroic Spirit is called Yuan Lao, right? Yuan Lao's ability is to make 'nightfall' retreat? Never seen it before, impressive."

Speaking with sarcastic praise, Heller mistakenly took the respect 'nightfall' showed to Yuan Lao, and the retreat of 'nightfall', as a skill Chen Aoyun had constructed for Yuan Lao.

"Yuan Lao's ability is to make 'nightfall' retreat. Isn't it hilarious? The Dragon Country Strategist didn't just make the 'nightfall' in the area of the Dragon Country Home Base retreat, but made the retreat of 'nightfall' benefit the entire Star Chessboard? Is this to demonstrate the power of Yuan Lao? Well, the Dragon Country [Strategist] did it, and it really made me realize the great power of Yuan Lao—not delaying nightfall, but making it retreat. But what is the result? Making the 'nightfall' on the entire chessboard retreat means that for all countries, it's equivalent to Yuan Lao doing nothing! The surging 'nightfall' will soon invade the Dragon Country's Taoyuan Wonderland again! The Dragon Country's ranking will not change; at this rate, it's still fifth place. The Dragon Country [Strategist] really has done an amazing and unprecedented deed!"

This was already naked sarcasm.

He did not like the Dragon Country, but the Dragon Country kept causing trouble again and again, even undermining his authority as a commentator several times, especially with the appearance of Yuan Lao.

Clearly, the commentator Heller was quite stimulated.

Not everyone understood the active avoidance of 'nightfall'. Many viewers also had doubts in their hearts.

Why did the Dragon Country [Strategist] need to construct an exclusive skill for Yuan Lao that makes 'nightfall' retreat as a whole?

The answer given by Chen Aoyun was very simple:

That was not an exclusive skill at all, just the respect that the Game of National Destiny should have for Yuan Lao.

Chen Aoyun was only now beginning to construct the true exclusive skill for Yuan Lao.

The same Construction Power gathered, the same finger-twisting movement.

The direction of the ability being constructed for Yuan Lao was clear:

Since he is the 'Father of Hybrid Rice', then Yuan Lao's ability is naturally [Hybridization]!

When the [Hybridization] skill was bestowed upon the Dharma Image.

When this skill was cast with a grand wave of the hand by Chen Aoyun's clone, acting simultaneously on the 'tree of dark twilight' and the 'tree of morning light'.

Fan Ling and Zhao Hongxiu finally understood what Chen Aoyun meant by that previous sentence!

Chen Aoyun had previously said:

"Even with the echo of [Reaching into a Bag], it is impossible to snatch another country's 'tree of eternity'. But who said the tree of eternity must be snatched?!"

Therefore, Chen Aoyun never intended to snatch the 'tree of eternity' from the Home Base of the Sakura Country or the Ottoman.

Using the 'Father of Hybrid Rice' as the allusion, the exclusive skill is [Hybridization].

The 'tree of dark twilight' and the 'tree of morning light' hybridize with each other.

Chen Aoyun wanted to 'hand-craft' a 'tree of eternity' himself!

On his eccentric face, his signature smile appeared again,

"The rules mentioned that there are only two 'tree of eternity's. But the 'tree' produced by the hybridization of the 'tree of dark twilight' and the 'tree of morning light', although its effect is identical to the 'tree of eternity', should count as a new variety, right? I am not breaking any rules!"

Indeed, he did not violate the rules.

To be cautious, Chen Aoyun even gave the new tree bred by hybridization a separate name: Twilight Tree!

"The variety is different, and the name is different. If the Will of National Destiny still finds fault, I will not accept it!"

The clone looked left and right, confirmed that there was no rule power coming to strangle the hybridized 'tree of morning light', and then smilingly carried it out of the Taoyuan Wonderland, passed through the basalt cave, and returned to the Home Base.

He manually dug a pit, planted the tree, and did not forget to water it; the 'tree of morning light' was born because of Yuan Lao, and Chen Aoyun showed enough sincerity and humility.

It took root and took effect in an instant.

'tree of morning light' = 'tree of eternity'.

Now, the Home Base was truly immune to nightfall, absorbing corruption, and refreshing troop sources.

Completely, thoroughly, a trinity without any worries!

The top three are secure!

And if there are no surprises, if they can hold out until dawn arrives, then it will be a battle for the top three order in the next stage!

Pulling up his soil-stained sleeves, Chen Aoyun looked calmly at Fan Ling and Zhao Hongxiu,

"Well, 'watching the sea mode' is on again. Got any BGM? Play one!"

Fan Ling was in the mood and started singing immediately,

"Jade plate, jade plate, why do you hang above the roof? Jade plate, jade plate, why do you give silver light in vain? Jade plate, jade plate, why are you sometimes swaying and sometimes hiding? Sometimes thin, sometimes fat..."

Chen Aoyun raised an eyebrow: "This song actually passed down... Giving silver light in vain? It's quite fitting for the Dragon Country's contribution to the end of the old era."
