Survival of the Nation: I Can Specify the Items That Will Drop

The two flew to Lin Feng and stopped in front of him.Jiang Zhaoyue's cheeks were still flushed from the fierce battle just now.Jiang Yelan adjusted his breathing extremely quickly, returning to his peak state in just a few breaths, with no emotional fluctuations visible on his face."How do you feel?" Lin Feng asked with a smile."Exhilarating!" Jiang Zhaoyue spoke first, her eyes filled with a lingering fighting spirit."Ye Lan's Hunting Mark and Poison Blade combo is very smooth. My battlefield intuition almost couldn't keep up with the rhythm of her Shadow Step."Next time I'll try fighting her at night; her equipment has an extra bonus at night, that would make the match much more interesting.Jiang Yelan glanced at her, then turned to Lin Feng: "Zhaoyue has a strong ability to charge forward and a fast reaction speed. Her battlefield intuition is a perfect counter to assassins, making it difficult for me to find an opportunity to strike."After listening, Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction: "Finding your weaknesses is more useful than winning a game."Just as Jiang Zhaoyue was about to speak again, her expression suddenly shifted, and her gaze went past Lin Feng's shoulder, landing on the distant horizon.At almost the same time, Jiang Yelan also turned his head.A pale blue streak of light was seen flying steadily from the direction of White Tower City towards them. Within the blue halo, a tall and elegant figure could be vaguely seen – it was Isabella.As the light streamed towards the three, it gradually slowed down, and the blue light of the Wind God's Staff gently receded in the morning light.Isabella hovered smoothly about five meters in front of Lin Feng, her posture as composed as ever, only with a rare, gentle smile on her lips."Did I disturb you?"Jiang Yelan shook his head slightly, while Jiang Zhaoyue smiled and said, "City Lord Isabella has arrived at just the right time; we have just finished sparring."Lin Feng spoke up: "Does City Lord Isabella have something to say?"Isabella suppressed her smile and nodded solemnly: "It concerns the movements of the undead race. After repeated reconnaissance and confirmation over the past few days, we have discovered that the undead army in the Eastern Region has completely retreated to the area around Graystone City."It seems they are well aware that with Lord Lin and reinforcements from the Arctic region present, the chances of a direct confrontation are slim. Our staff speculates that the undead army is waiting for the 'underground city seal' to be completely lifted."At that point, you and the reinforcements in the Arctic will have to return to the Antarctic and Arctic regions respectively, only then will they launch a full-scale offensive."Lin Feng nodded; this assessment was entirely consistent with his own thoughts.“I think so too. Once the seal on the underground city is broken, both I and the Arctic reinforcements will have to return. That's exactly what they've been waiting for.”He looked at Isabella and said solemnly, "Lord Isabella, rest assured, I will provide support as long as the undead continue to attack the Eastern Region before the seal on the underground city is broken."Isabella nodded slightly, a hint of gratitude flashing in her eyes: "With Lord Lin's words, I am relieved. However, there is another reason for my visit this time."She took a deep breath and said seriously, "These past few days, I have repeatedly discussed with the other two city lords of the Eternal City, and we believe that the unsealing of the underground city will be an unprecedented disaster for the Nightmare World."Your continued presence here might hinder the development of the Beacon Territory itself. Besides, four days ago you shared crucial intelligence with all nations of Earth that the seal might be lifted two months ahead of schedule. Europa will forever remember this kindness."Therefore, the three of us have decided to first entrust the 'Heart of the Ancient Builder' to you. You should return to the Antarctic Region and upgrade the wonder to a high-level wonder. If the undead race here remains inactive, you don't need to rush back."As soon as she finished speaking, she took out a golden gear from her bosom.The gear was slightly larger than two fists put together, its surface covered with fine weathering patterns, the teeth on the edges worn unevenly, and a few even had chips at the tips, but the smooth round hole in the center faintly exuded a chilling ancient aura.She handed it to Lin Feng with both hands.Lin Feng did not refuse and solemnly accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you for your trust. I, Lin Feng, will never go back on my promise."He carefully put the gear into his pocket and raised his head again: "But there is one thing I must emphasize again: the Nightmare Clan brings more than just war; they will fundamentally destroy the ecological environment and change the living conditions of this world."Furthermore, according to the intelligence I currently possess, the Nightmare Clan has at least six level 49 Demon King-level combatants. I hope Europa will make preparations as soon as possible.Upon hearing "six Demon King-level combatants," Isabella's smile vanished.She nodded solemnly, her tone unusually serious: "Lord Sherin is concerned. After receiving your intelligence four days ago, we have already begun making arrangements in secret. The defenses of the Eternal City are being reinforced, and strategic materials are being urgently stockpiled."Lin Feng didn't say anything more; the two understood each other without saying a word."Then I won't take up any more of your time."Isabella regained her composure, slightly turning aside to make way for him, her voice carrying a hint of ease and blessing."Lord Lin, have a safe journey. The road to the Antarctic is still long.""Until we meet again, Lord Isabella." Lin Feng clasped his hands in greeting.Isabella nodded slightly, then looked at Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan: "I hope you two have a safe journey, and I hope we will have the opportunity to fight side by side again in the future."Jiang Zhaoyue smiled and returned the greeting: "Thank you for your kind words, City Lord."Jiang Yelan simply nodded and said, "Take care."Lin Feng said no more, turned around and flew south.Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan followed closely behind.Three figures left long trails of light in the brilliant morning light, and disappeared into the horizon in an instant....Two days later, in the afternoon.Three figures slowly descended from the sky from the north gate tower of Hangu Pass.When Lin Feng landed, the soles of his boots made a dull but solid sound as they stepped onto the familiar bluestone surface.He glanced at the mottled walls and the beacon flags fluttering in the wind on both sides, and his nerves, which had been tense for half a month, finally relaxed."It feels so much more comfortable here." His tone was unusually relaxed.Jiang Zhaoyue stood beside him, reached out to tidy her long hair that had been ruffled by the wind, and smiled as she echoed, "After fighting outside for half a month, even these city wall bricks look exceptionally pleasing to the eye when I come back."Lin Feng turned to look at her, about to speak, when hurried yet steady footsteps echoed from the steps of the city tower.Meng Yi and Zhao Hu walked quickly up the city wall, one after the other.Meng Yi maintained his calm and composed demeanor, walking at a measured pace.He walked up to Lin Feng and stopped, his right fist slamming heavily against his chest, his voice booming: "Lord!"Zhao Hu followed behind him, and was about to bow as well, but when his gaze inadvertently swept over Jiang Zhaoyue and Jiang Yelan standing behind Lin Feng, his movements suddenly froze in mid-air.Four dazzling golden halos slowly swirled around the two of them, and the golden ornaments on their fingers, wrists, and necks reflected a mesmerizing brilliance in the afternoon sunlight.Zhao Hu's gaze swept over the pieces of equipment one by one, his eyes widening, and he opened his mouth but swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
