Chapter 2629 [Devoting the Power to Safeguard the Nation]

Actually, it was a bit strange from the very beginning when the Ancient Azure Dragon said that he would become its first opponent.

The Primordial Azure Dragon in its Dragon Crystal form had always wanted to devour Lin Mu. But after its rebirth, its attitude changed drastically…

Could it be that the dragon vein's body affected it? Or perhaps the dragon vein's spirit wasn't completely possessed and is still influencing the ancient azure dragon?!
The thought flashed through Lin Mu's mind in an instant, and with a thought, more than a dozen dragon shadows floated around him, forming a temporary protective shield.

"Bang!!!" The golden spear struck again, hitting the dragon shadow.

“Huh…” At this moment, the Primordial Azure Dragon exclaimed in surprise.

Because of it, they finally discovered something unusual! The dragon shadow that Lin Mu summoned this time was different from the previous ones!
The dragon luck on Lin Mu is not the eighteen dragon luck...

This is bad; its advantages seem to be disappearing little by little...

Its dragon luck currently only amounts to twenty dragons.

If you can't win in direct combat and are also at a disadvantage in terms of luck, what should you do?
A slight tremor ran through its body, and with a thought, the Primordial Azure Dragon unleashed a vast announcement:

"--Ding!"

"--Announcement from the Eastern Kingdom (China): The national guardian beast of the Eastern Kingdom, [Yamata no Orochi], has issued a nationwide appeal by abusing its power: I am currently engaged in a life-or-death battle with Lin Mu, the Dragon Lord of the China region. His dragon fortune is flourishing, and I wish to draw upon the national fortune of the Eastern Kingdom to counteract the dragon fortune on Lin Mu's body. I hope you will support me. Supporters, silently recite in your hearts: [Contribute to the power of the national guardian]."

"..."

"..."

Unexpectedly, the Ancient Azure Dragon had already gained authority and was able to issue announcements, gathering the dragon's fortune from all over the Eastern Kingdom. Because during the national war, players in the Chinese region also heard the Ancient Azure Dragon's announcement.

"Is it the Yamata no Orochi... or the Primordial Azure Dragon... or perhaps a dragon vein... what's going on?" Lin Mu frowned slightly after hearing the announcement.

However, at this moment, Lin Mu suddenly discovered that his identity as the Dragon Lord had been revealed!

"Damn it... Luckily, the Han Dynasty's power is weak and the emperor is in a state of decline, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!" Lin Mu cursed out loud.

His position in the Han Dynasty was that of a valiant and auspicious general, not a dragon emperor!
"Fortunately, he didn't directly reveal the extent of the Dragon's Fortune... This guy!!!" Lin Mu glared at the golden space and snorted coldly.

However, if the dragon luck on Lin Mu is even greater than that of the national treasure beast of Japan, how much less could Lin Mu's dragon luck be...?

Upon hearing this announcement, many astute players in the Chinese server began to have people analyze how much luck Lin Mu possessed.

Of course, Lin Mulong's identity also began to spread in the Great Han Dynasty immediately.

Because many people are secretly keeping players under their wing!
Some ambitious individuals secretly speculated that Lin Mu's trip to the Japanese islands to kill the national guardian beast was actually for the dragon luck it possessed.

Some people also believe that Lin Mu is imitating Dong Zhuo!

For example, Lu Zhi, Yang Biao, and others weren't surprised to learn that Lin Mu was blessed with good fortune. His ability to raid the dragon vein on Yizhou Island meant he possessed a secret. It's just that no one explicitly revealed it.

As long as the Great Han Dynasty stands, Lin Mu's status as the Dragon Lord is useless. If he secretly plots rebellion, then only two words will be given to him: Heh...

……

Golden Space.

Lin Mu's expression kept changing, finally settling into a sigh.

The Dragon Lord's identity was revealed passively, so he couldn't say anything or argue about it; he would just let things take their course. In any case, the Dong Zhuo rebellion had already begun, and even if he declared himself king now, he wouldn't be trapped in a desperate situation.

"However, there might be some changes in the subsequent campaign against Dong Zhuo," Lin Mu sighed softly.

"Whoosh!!!" Just then, the spears came again.

Lin Mu's mind stirred, and the familiar dragon shadow reappeared. The two sides clashed once more.

At this moment, Lin Mu discovered that each attack involved ten spears, but there were two rounds of repetition. This meant that the Primordial Azure Dragon could only utilize twenty dragons' worth of dragon energy!
Each attack on the luck path is not simply a battle of strength and quantity; it also involves consumption, and each impact damages the luck of both sides!
Fortunately, he had a lot of Dragon Luck; he used eighteen in one battle, thirty-six in two. He didn't use any more Dragon Luck after that, otherwise he might have revealed the exact amount…

Having adapted to its attacks, Lin Mu no longer intended to passively defend. He needed to take advantage of the dragon's gathering power from the East to make his move. He didn't know how much East Asian fortune the Primordial Azure Dragon would accumulate.

At that moment, the golden space began to tremble...

At the same time, in an instant, the entire island of Japan trembled, and endless resonance of wills emanated from the feudal states of Japan.

Countless Japanese gamers responded to the call, silently chanting, "To dedicate our strength to protecting the nation!"

Strange forces began to spread, and the sky over the entire Japanese island was filled with auspicious rays of light...

Unlike the players from Japan, the native inhabitants of the islands of Japan are hesitant because the path of faith in the Yamata no Orochi has been severed and the country is forcefully suppressing matters of faith.

In fact, many rulers of the vassal states did not want to respond to the call of the Yamata no Orochi, which was gathering the national fortune of Japan. Was it truly for the public good? If they had selfish motives and intercepted that fortune, the consequences would be dire.

However, their opponent, Lin Mu, was the greatest villain who had caused much irreparable damage to Japan, which made them hesitate.

The plan to harvest the temples of Edo Castle was aborted, leaving them unable and unable to participate in the battle to kill Yamata no Orochi. Yamata no Orochi's death was now completely unrelated to them.

If Lin Mu really kills the Yamata no Orochi, that would be terrible. Putting aside everything else, the decline in national strength would be absolutely terrifying.

If Lin Mu obtains the legendary [Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi] from the Yamata no Orochi, along with the [Yata-no-Kagami] which is rumored to have already been stolen by Lin Mu, then two national treasures will be lost, and the country's strength will drop another wave. The national strength of Japan will definitely plummet to rock bottom!

With both royal cities utterly destroyed, the national guardian beast slain, and national power plummeting to rock bottom, how dark will the future of the Eastern Kingdom be?!

After only a slight hesitation, the leaders of various countries sent people to shout from the sky, urging all the common people and the elite to respond.

Regardless, the Yamata no Orochi still belongs to Japan. Even if it secretly intercepts the power of destiny, it still belongs to Japan. If Lin Mu takes it away and brings it back to China, it will be like throwing a meat bun to a dog—gone forever.

Even Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo, who were chasing the mysterious figure, silently chanted in their hearts: "[Dedicate the power to protect the country]!"

The next moment, strange rays of light surged from their bodies and shot straight into the sky.

"Aren't you afraid of death?" At this moment, the mysterious figure that was heading towards Mount Fuji stopped, turned around and looked at Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo.

At this moment, the protection of the Heavenly Dao on the two of them has reached its weakest point. If he wanted to kill them, the chances of success would be very high, and he would bear the least amount of karmic burden from heaven and earth, and might even be unaffected by karma.

However, after only a moment's hesitation, the mysterious figure did not retaliate against the two. He continued his journey towards Mount Fuji.

Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo were overjoyed to see him pause, assuming something was wrong. However, he merely glanced back and continued his escape. This left the two men quite frustrated.

"Buzz!!!" Just as the mysterious figure approached the foot of Mount Fuji, which was shrouded in thick white mist, hundreds of figures suddenly appeared and blocked its path.

"So you called for backup." The mysterious figure glanced at the people in front of him and raised an eyebrow.

"Put down the Ame-no-Murakumo sword!!!" Hattori Hanzo roared as he chased after him.

When Oda Nobunaga heard Hattori Hanzo reveal the big secret, his expression changed slightly.

Originally, the Kusanagi Sword belonged to him, but he never expected it to be stolen, and now, news of it has spread... He has a premonition that the Kusanagi Sword will become increasingly distant from him in the future!
"What?! The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi!! Our sacred treasure of Japan!!" The others had only come to surround them after receiving information from the two, but they didn't know the specifics. They never expected it to involve the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi!

"This sword is not something you can wield right now. Those whose lives are not strong enough will suffer the consequences." Helpless, the mysterious figure could only tell the truth.

However, for him it was the truth, but for Oda Nobunaga and his men it was just a weak excuse offered by robbers after they were surrounded.

"It seems you don't believe me..." the mysterious figure shrugged and said calmly.

"Kill!~~~" At this moment, Oda Nobunaga roared and charged towards the mysterious figure.

However, at that moment, a mighty force suddenly descended, enveloping Oda Nobunaga and all the historical warlords of Japan.

The next moment, they felt all their strength draining away...

Orochi's "Using the Power to Protect the Nation" also secretly contains methods to extract power!
