75: The country is made up of millions of families, the road to killing gods
The moonlight, like silver, gently sprinkled over the ancient courtyard.
This was the large house Qin Tian had bought for his mother, Murong Mingyue.
Murong Mingyue sat opposite Qin Tian, sharing a simple but warm meal around a table.
Murong Mingyue looked at Qin Tian, her eyes filled with both reluctance and, more so, anticipation.
No one understood her son better than a mother; she knew Qin Tian's personality.
She knew that Qin Tian, having signed up for the National War, would soon be leaving.
So Murong Mingyue had prepared the meal in advance, waiting for Qin Tian to return to bid him farewell.
Qin Tian looked up at his mother; even with his best efforts to conceal it, his eyes still revealed worry.
Murong Mingyue's illness had been cured, but the curse had not yet been removed.
Qin Tian's departure from the Beginner Area was not only for the National War but also to find the entity that cast the curse.
He intended to eliminate it and remove the curse.
Murong Mingyue saw Qin Tian's expression and instantly understood what was on his mind, saying gently, "Xiao Tian, you don't have to worry about me. As long as I maintain my current level, that curse won't affect me."
"You must fully prepare for the National War, continuously improve your strength before it begins, and fight bravely against the enemy on the battlefield."
"Don't worry, Mom, I will."
"Try this, braised pork with bean curd sticks. You used to love it the most. I haven't made it in a long time. See if the taste has changed?"
Murong Mingyue smiled, changing the subject, and placed a piece of bean curd stick into Qin Tian's bowl.
"Delicious."
It was the long-lost taste of his mother's cooking.
From Murong Mingyue's hospitalization until now, Qin Tian had not sat down to eat with his mother, Murong Mingyue, like this in a very long time.
Qin Tian looked around.
Skyscrapers stood tall.
Lights from thousands of homes twinkled.
He could vaguely see people gathered together, eating.
These people were players in China's Newbie Main City, and also a microcosm of countless Chinese players.
If this National War were to be lost, then such a scene would be very difficult to see again.
The punishment for failure was too terrifying; countless Chinese players would lose their homes and families because of it.
"Therefore, this battle must be won."
Qin Tian looked at his mother, and at this moment, he had a more intuitive understanding of the four characters 'family and country sentiment'.
The family is the smallest country, and the country is composed of millions of families.
Innumerable small families form the large family of China.
To protect China, to fight for China.
It is to protect this large family, and also to protect one's own small family.

Early the next morning, after bidding farewell to his mother, Murong Mingyue.
Qin Tian went directly to the Goblin Home.
Qin Tian already knew the coordinates of the high-level main city; he planned to use the teleportation gate here to directly teleport to the Newbie Main City.
"No."
Gobu Firm shook his head directly when he heard Qin Tian's idea.
Seeing Qin Tian's gaze still on him, he immediately continued, "Sir, I'm not lying to you, this really isn't possible. The world barrier hasn't disappeared yet. Currently, the teleportation gate can only be generated within the Beginner Area."
Hearing Gobu Firm say this, Qin Tian was also a little surprised.
If that were truly the case, wouldn't it mean that the West Sobia Grassland also belonged to the Beginner Area?
Not only does the Beginner Area have giant dragons, but it also has a forbidden holy item?
As if sensing the confusion in Qin Tian's heart, Ge Bu Xing began to explain: "The world barrier actually didn't exist at first; it was formed later. As for the reason, it is said to be from the War of the Gods, created by the united races to resist the gods."
"There is even a prophecy that when the world barrier breaks, it will be the end of the world. At that time, the gods will invade, and all races will become their slaves."
As he spoke, thinking of the rumored formidable power of the divine race, Gobu Firm's body couldn't help but tremble.
It was a new version he had never heard of.
Qin Tian, however, felt nothing; his focus was on the problem itself.
Qin Tian had previously thought that Cang Long was talking about battles between nations, but listening to Gobu Firm, it seemed there was another possibility.
God?
Qin Tian couldn't help but glance at the achievement reward he received in Sakura Country after completely killing that low-level evil god.
[God Slayer]: Damage dealt to divine monsters increased by 100%, and slain divine monsters cannot be resurrected.
This skill was designed to eliminate the divine race, and after killing that elementary evil god, his experience acquisition efficiency also changed from 1000 times to 10000 times.
Qin Tian suddenly realized that he had, unknowingly, already embarked on the path of God Slayer.
And it seemed that after killing the so-called gods, he could become stronger.
This also meant that perhaps the so-called divine race had already set their sights on him, and it was highly likely they were already preparing to strike him down.
Thinking of this, Qin Tian felt no fear in his heart; instead, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
From birth until now, the education he had received was never about the supremacy of gods, but rather that man can conquer nature.
In the legends of China, there were never naturally born gods.
They were all people who had achieved great accomplishments and were worshipped as gods by later generations.
This was completely different from the divine race Gobu Firm spoke of.
As for this divine race, Qin Tian wished they would come looking for trouble.
Among these divine races, there was a high possibility that the God of Curse, who had cursed his mother, was present.
"I still need to level up as quickly as possible."
Qin Tian thought to himself.
Level is the foundation of power.
Only by leveling up quickly could he deal with the potential troubles that might arise.
Whether it was Sakura Country, whom he would soon face on the National War battlefield, or the divine race, who were highly likely already preparing to deal with him.
Only by overwhelming them with level could he resolve them.
Knowing that direct teleportation was not possible, Qin Tian no longer dwelled on it.
Qin Tian directly told Gobu Firm the coordinates of the Trial Land.
As Gobu Firm fiddled with something, a teleportation gate leading to the Trial Land appeared.
Qin Tian walked into the teleportation gate, and when he emerged, the surrounding scenery had already changed.
Everything was yellowish-brown, with sand swirling everywhere.
Qin Tian looked into the distance and could already see many players.
This was the only Trial Land in the Beginner Area.
These people were not like Qin Tian, who had no level-up restrictions.
After their level reached 49, they could no longer gain experience.
Only by coming here and passing the trial of the Trial Land could they leave the Beginner Area.
They would then be teleported near a higher-level player main city.
Only then could they continue to gain experience.
And continue to raise their level.
Qin Tian walked to the entrance of the Trial Land, and some players had already proactively come up to greet him.
However, upon seeing the shield on Qin Tian's back, which had no glimmer of light, they immediately turned and walked away.
Qin Tian took a quick glance and roughly understood the situation.
The surrounding players, apart from groups of four or five, were scattered like him, standing alone.
These unteamed players, similar to Qin Tian's current equipment, were all carrying shields, clearly Defense Warriors.
The trial was conducted in teams, and only with a suitable class composition could they pass. The current situation was undoubtedly an excess of Defense Warriors and a lack of output classes.
Just as Qin Tian was about to casually team up with a few people to pass the trial, a figure quietly approached: "Join my team, I'll get you through for ten million."
