Su Bai scratched his head, a smile appearing on his face.
"It was just luck, I was just fortunate!"
Wang Zhenguo's eyes widened, his voice filled with disbelief: "What kind of amazing luck is this! To be able to so forcefully crush the newly promoted lords of various countries around the world is simply unbelievable!"
"To be the weakest race and yet manage to garner over 30,000 points, I can't understand it no matter how hard I try!" Guo Jing was agitated, his eyes filled with shock. "Just thinking about those national fortune rewards makes my heart race."
Bai Mengyu stood to the side, not saying a word, but her eyes were fixed on Su Bai, never leaving him for a moment.
Seeing the intense reaction from the crowd, Su Bai thought to himself that if he kept using "good luck" as an excuse, it would seem too perfunctory.
Once you become a formal lord, you will inevitably have dealings with the outside world.
The matter of the Zerg can't be kept secret any longer, so it's better to reveal it in advance, as a way of giving the authorities an explanation.
Otherwise, if they keep asking questions, it will definitely be a huge hassle.
Of course, it doesn't need to be explained in great detail.
Just a brief mention will suffice.
With this thought in mind, Su Bai cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Among them, the companion race I awakened is not an ordinary insectoid race."
"The situation is a bit complicated and cannot be explained in a few words."
"In short, they are completely different from the units under other Zerg overlords, those enlarged versions of Earth's insects."
Upon hearing this, Guo Jing's face turned horrified, and his eyes revealed deep shock.
He couldn't help but say, "Could it be a mutated Zerg? This situation is truly very strange."
“There have indeed been individual cases of mutated races in the past fifty years, but without exception, they all became weaker.”
"But your Zerg have mutated to be so powerful that they directly crush all the newly promoted lords in the world."
Wang Zhenguo's eyes gleamed with intense curiosity as he asked, "What kind of insectoid race is this, that it could be so terrifying!"
"When you meet again in the Land of Redemption, you will see it with your own eyes and you will understand."
Su Bai's lips curled up, revealing a mysterious smile.
Guo Jing and Wang Zhenguo exchanged a glance, their surprise as if a thunderbolt had struck them.
Unexpectedly, Su Bai emerged as the biggest dark horse this year, and the reason for this was actually due to racial mutation.
What kind of insect could possess such formidable fighting power?
Earning over 30,000 points is no easy feat.
This shows that the overall strength within Su Bai's territory must have reached a terrifying level.
"By the way, has your territory level broken through to level three yet?"
Wang Zhenguo looked puzzled and asked.
Su Bai pondered for a moment, then said, "I possess a level 4 territory."
His territory is currently at level 8, but he doesn't want to reveal his strength too early, so he has reduced it by half.
"A level 4 territory!" Wang Zhenguo exclaimed in surprise, unable to help but sigh, "It has already surpassed 99% of the lords!"
"No wonder you achieved such results. It turns out that both your race and territory level far exceeded our expectations," Guo Jing sighed repeatedly.
"The defensive building blueprint you gave me was a great help!"
Su Bai's gaze was intense, and his voice was full of sincerity.
Without that watchtower, the Wraith, immune to ordinary physical attacks, would have to wait for the corresponding unit to appear before it could be killed.
Then, the ritual of summoning spirits in the mysterious cave might be missed.
The formidable Queen of Blades will not appear in the territory.
Therefore, everything is interconnected, and there is a cause for every effect.
Su Bai naturally remembered the help Guo Jing provided.
"Compared to the national fortune rewards you bring, a mere defensive building blueprint is nothing!"
Guo Jing smiled broadly, his eyes revealing deep joy.
He continued, "You have made such a great contribution to the country, and the rewards will be substantial! From this day forward, you are a hero of the Chinese nation, and the people of the motherland will never forget you!"
Su Bai spoke with righteous indignation and stern words, quickly saying, "Thank you, motherland! Thank you, people! I will continue my efforts and create even greater glories!"
"I reckon you'll be very busy for the next while," Guo Jing said with a smile. "You're quite the celebrity now; everyone's talking about you."
"I still prefer to keep a low profile," Su Bai said with a smile.
Then, Guo Jing turned his head and said, "Bai Mengyu, your performance was also very good. You ranked eighth on the points leaderboard, which increased the lifespan of all the people of the Dragon Kingdom by half a year!"
"Compared to Su Bai, I am far inferior." Bai Mengyu shook her head.
She looked at Su Bai, her beautiful eyes filled with amazement: "I never expected you to be so unassuming. Although I have a legendary Lord's Mark, you have left me far behind."
"Just lucky!"
Su Bai chuckled.
After not seeing Su Bai for three years, Bai Mengyu had many things to say upon their reunion, but with Guo Jing and Wang Zhenguo present, she ultimately kept quiet.
"The banquet is about to begin, let's hurry over." Wang Zhenguo glanced at his watch.
"Xiao Su, Xiao Bai, let's go!"
Guo Jing walked forward with a broad smile.
A short while later.
Banquet hall.
Su Bai was assigned to the chief position.
Sitting around him were all high-ranking military officers.
This made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
I was a little reserved during the meal.
Fortunately, soldiers are known for their efficiency and decisiveness, and this applies to their meals as well.
The dinner ended not long afterward.
These distinguished military officers chatted with Su Bai for a long time before leaving one by one.
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Su Bai, you are truly amazing! You managed to take the top spot and bring such a generous national fortune reward!"
Su Bai turned around and took a closer look. The person who came was none other than the class monitor, Zhao Xiangtian.
"Haha! Just lucky!"
Zhao Xiangtian was holding a bottle of red wine.
He took a wine glass, poured in about a third of it, and presented it to me with both hands with great respect.
"You are a great hero of the country, I must personally pour you a glass of wine!"
"Your homeroom teacher, classmates, and principal will all be proud of you!"
"Me too. Being classmates with you for three years is the greatest honor of my life!"
"If you ever need anything from me in the future, just let me know. We're good brothers, and I'll do anything for you, no matter what!"
Su Bai was somewhat surprised as he accepted the wine glass.
In the past, Zhao Xiangtian, relying on his position as class monitor, was extremely arrogant and unruly.
Why has his personality changed so drastically? It's really hard to get used to.
Throughout their three years of high school, although Zhao Xiangtian and he had no personal grudges, they could hardly be considered good brothers.
However, you can't hit someone who's smiling at you.
Su Bai picked up the wine glass, gently touched it to his lips, and took a sip.
Zhao Xiangtian was overjoyed.
They were high school classmates, so their relationship was definitely special.
Su Bai's willingness to clink glasses with me must represent acceptance and recognition of me.
Very good!
The thing about taking me in as your underling!
There's a chance!
In his excitement, Zhao Xiangtian tilted his head back and drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp.
