National Tower Defense Survival: Start Awakening Fusion System

107: Thank you for your grace! Slap the First Emperor in the face in public!After a long period of silence, the World Channel was completely overwhelmed by “666” and “God.”

“This damn… he couldn’t win with an open conspiracy, so he started playing dirty, but then his prediction was predicted by someone else?”

“I call this: Entrapment! Art! This is absolutely art!”

“Bai Qi, the General, a generation’s God of Slaughter; after tonight, he will probably be renamed ‘Bai Gei’ (White Give). Hahahaha!”

Xianyang Plain, upon the throne.

Crack.

The second wine cup in First Emperor’s hand shattered again. Unlike last time, this time, the air around him seemed to twist from an invisible rage. The generals kneeling below felt a mountain-like pressure descend upon them, their souls trembling, almost suffocating.

His face was devoid of any expression, only a deathly silence.

That humiliation, that defeat, was like the most vicious curse, piercing to the bone.

Just then, the bloody night sky began to recede, and the first ray of dawn illuminated the land.

【System Announcement: Hunting Ceremony, Night One, has officially ended!】

【System Announcement: Congratulations to Lord 【Tianting · Heaven’s Choice】 for topping the Night One Hunting Leaderboard with 5,487,500 points!】

【System Announcement: Rewards are being settled…】

The next second, a prompt box that only Lin Feng could see popped up.

【Detected that you have won the “Hunting Ceremony” top spot. The reward provider is 【Great Qin · First Emperor】. You will receive a permanent buff blessing granted by his talent 【Son of Heaven’s Praise】—【Blessing of the Human King】.】

【【Blessing of the Human King】: Permanently increases the attack and defense of all units within your territory by 20%.】

【Do you accept this blessing?】

Lin Feng’s lips curved into a brilliant smile.

He clicked “Yes” without hesitation.

In an instant, an incredibly brilliant golden pillar of light, symbolizing “Human Imperial Authority,” descended from the sky, enveloping the entire 【Tianting】 territory! Golden rain scattered, and a faint golden aura appeared on all 【Tianting】 members’ units, whether buildings or troop types.

The 【Tianting】 channel instantly exploded!

【Mad Blade】: “Holy crap! My Berserker Axe Soldiers’ attack power directly increased by 20%! This buff is too fierce!”

【Gourmet Supplier】: “My pot! My pot is glowing! I feel like the next pot of soup can add 50% attack speed!”

【Miao Shou Sheng Hua】: “First Emperor… he tearfully sent us a peerless gift! I call this the best annual enemy aid!”

Amidst the revelry of the crowd, a world announcement echoed through the skies.

【World Announcement: Lord 【Tianting · Heaven’s Choice】 has accepted the blessing of 【Great Qin · First Emperor】 and received the permanent buff 【Blessing of the Human King】!】

After doing all this, Lin Feng opened the World Channel and slowly typed out a line of text in front of everyone.

Heaven’s Choice: “@Great Qin · First Emperor, thank you, Your Majesty, for the generous gift.”

Heaven’s Choice: “Was Your Majesty’s Hunting Ceremony meant to deliver this grand gift to me? Then I shall not decline.”

The World Channel went completely mad.

If Lin Feng’s million-point strike with 【Judgment Sky Eye】 showcased his unparalleled “power” to the world.

Then his final “thank you” @Great Qin · First Emperor was a naked declaration that he also possessed crushing “wisdom” and “courage.”

Power can inspire awe.

But this kind of humiliation, playing an emperor in the palm of one’s hand, was enough to drive people mad.

【White Whore in the Waves】: “Killing, and also striking at the heart! Heaven’s Choice’s move, I call it art!”

【One Punch, One Sobbing Monster】: “Did you see First Emperor’s face? I opened his spectating view, and even though it was far away, I swear, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot!”

【Holy Hall · Caesar】: “Interesting. It seems this battle for the throne won’t be so boring.”

【Abyss · Morgana】: “Hehehe, I’m growing to like this man named Heaven’s Choice more and more. First Emperor, how are you feeling now?”

Humiliation, mockery, schadenfreude…

The entire world’s public opinion, like invisible knives, cut into the body of the Great Qin Empire.

On Xianyang Plain, upon the Xuan-iron throne symbolizing supreme authority, First Emperor was expressionless.

At his feet were the fragments of the second cold jade wine cup.

Within the Imperial Guild Channel, there was a deathly silence. No one dared to speak. They all knew that the one on the throne was on the verge of a volcanic eruption.

Bai Qi, the General’s ID was gray; he had gone offline. This God of Slaughter, who had never tasted defeat in his life, chose to temporarily avoid the limelight after being made a fool of and watching his “heart-piercing scheme” become his opponent’s stepping stone. He needed time to digest this humiliation.

After a long while, Li Si, bracing himself, broke the suffocating silence.

Li Si: “Your Majesty… victory and defeat are common in warfare. This Heaven’s Choice, his methods are cunning, not to be measured by common sense. We… indeed made a misstep.”

“A misstep?”

First Emperor finally spoke, his voice very soft, yet carrying a bone-chilling coldness.

“I did not make one misstep.”

He slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping over the vast lands before him, his voice imbued with an unprecedented weariness and… anger.

“What he destroyed was not just one of my hunts. It was the damn ‘rules’! It was my ‘order’ that I painstakingly established on this chaotic land, belonging to me!”

“He used my reward to slap my face. He stood on my head in front of the whole world, telling everyone that my imperial majesty was nothing but a joke!”

“This is no longer war; it is uprooting! It is uprooting the very foundation of my emperorship!”

Upon hearing this, Li Si’s heart trembled violently, and cold sweat instantly drenched his back. He finally understood what truly angered His Majesty.

It was the collapse of authority! Heaven’s Choice’s actions were like drilling a visible hole in the foundation of a magnificent building that had just been completed!

Li Si prostrated himself even lower: “Your Majesty is sagacious! Your subject… is foolish.”

First Emperor ignored him, simply stood with his hands behind his back, his imperial robe flapping in the dawn wind.

“Issue my decree.”

“The Hunting Ceremony continues. From Night Two onwards, all rewards will be doubled!”

“Tell the world that I can afford to lose. As long as my rewards are there, my rules are still there.”

“This is dignity, the dignity of an emperor. Even if it’s fake, it must be maintained for me!”

A flicker of understanding passed through Li Si’s eyes, and he immediately accepted the order: “As you command!”

“Furthermore,” First Emperor’s voice sounded again, this time with a hint of chilling amusement, “you personally go to the treasury and retrieve that item.”

Li Si’s body trembled violently, and he looked up, his face showing unconcealed shock and fear: “Your Majesty, are you referring to… the catastrophe horn? That is a forbidden item; once it is blown…”

First Emperor interrupted him: “I know its side effects. But now, I need an absolutely fair ‘test’ that cannot be broken by clever tricks.”

“Heaven’s Choice, doesn’t he like breaking situations?”

“Then I will give him a dead end.”

“I want his ‘monsters and demons’ to fight among themselves in his ‘monster paradise’ that he prides himself on!”
