Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

This is cause and effect!
Lin Mu was really looking forward to the reward for defeating Lü Bu, but he wasn't entirely confident he'd get a share. After all, Liu Bei had dispelled the "borrowing luck" technique after Lü Bu took flight.

After that, it wasn't that Guan Yu truly defeated Lü Bu, but rather that Lü Bu retreated voluntarily, and only fled after sensing the aura that Lin Mu was unleashing.

Therefore, it's reasonable for him to receive 70% of the contribution!
This time, Heaven is fair!

Regardless, Liu Bei's Seven Stars Luck-Borrowing Technique was indeed quite impressive.

"Tsk tsk... I have a feeling that Liu Bei might not use this technique on me again in the future..." Lin Mu said quietly.

"Liu Bei's life of wandering might be related to this technique..." Lin Mu pondered to himself.

"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, because you have achieved the hidden achievement of [Three Heroes Battle Lü Bu] and your contribution has reached 70%, you will receive 35 Dragon Luck, 350 Tiger Luck, 350 Ox Luck, +35 National Legendary Points, +700,000,000 Reputation Points, and a National Artifact."

The reward points have been distributed!

This was an amazing haul!!!
Liu Bei's plans to fight Lü Bu, and even Hua Xiong, must have been influenced by the system. The system may have assigned Liu Bei specific tasks, hence his actions.

"--Ding!"

"—System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, since there is only one national artifact as a reward this time, and according to the rules you are entitled to 70% of it, and you and Liu Bei are both Dragon Lords with the same priority, therefore, in order to ensure the principles of fairness, impartiality and transparency, both of you have the following four options:"

1. Upon selecting a national artifact, the system will randomly reward you with a complete national artifact. However, Liu Bei will have the right to use this national artifact. The specific rules for its use can be agreed upon by the two dragon lords themselves. If they cannot agree on a rule, the system will stipulate that Lin Mu will use it for the first seven days and Liu Bei for the last three days of every ten days. Each transfer will be handled by the system, but both of them will need to pay a price of one million reputation points each time.

2. Completely dismantle that national artifact. Based on your contribution, the system will provide two rewards (random) with the corresponding contribution value.

3. Duel: The two Dragon Lords can engage in a duel to determine the ownership of the national artifact. This duel can be configured to allow for either resurrection or no resurrection.
4. The two parties may negotiate, with one party offering a price in exchange for full ownership of the national treasure.

"--Ding!"

"--System prompt: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, please note that because Liu Bei is the chosen one for the special storyline [Three Heroes Battle Lü Bu], you have priority in choosing Liu Bei this time."

Lin Mu frowned upon hearing these system notifications.

Other rewards are easy to divide directly. But the national artifact is harder to divide; the system gave four options, which is quite rigorous.

He actually preferred the fourth option. He could exchange precious items for the complete national artifact.

For example, the Crimson Dragon Token!
Liu Bei would definitely replace this item!

Of course, the premise is that the national treasure must be valuable!
National treasures are not all equally powerful; they vary in quality.

He wouldn't even look at a typical national treasure.

If the national artifact has amazing attributes, hehehe... he'd be willing to return the Crimson Dragon Token to Liu Bei...

However, the choice wasn't in his hands, despite him contributing 70% of the resources; it was in Liu Bei's. This left him somewhat speechless…

At this moment, Liu Bei, in a state of rage, would certainly not make a choice after careful consideration.

Sure enough, the next moment, a system notification appeared showing Liu Bei's choice of outcome:

"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, because Dragon Lord Liu Bei chose option 2, the national artifact will be divided into two items of corresponding value for you two."

Enraged, Liu Bei chose to sever ties with Lin Mu, wanting no further involvement. Without hesitation…

In fact, if Liu Bei had strategists, and if he could have remained calm, the fourth option would have been the best!

With a shrewd and far-sighted strategist by his side, he might be able to extract even more rare and valuable items from Lin Mu... and perhaps even uncover the true culprit behind the destruction of his territory...

Unfortunately, Liu Bei had no strategists by his side at that time and had no idea how far ahead he could have gone...

However, Liu Bei's gains this time were not bad...

……

Just as Liu Bei acquired the divine steed Lu, in a high-walled compound in Jingzhou, inside an empty stable housing hundreds of fine warhorses, a bright white light flashed, and then a warhorse vanished...

The stableman was drawn by the white light and rushed to the stable, only to find that one of his warhorses was missing.

This was a big deal for them, and they immediately reported it to their lord.

Liu Biao, beaming with joy, was leisurely sipping fragrant tea.

This time, he not only gained the support of two local prominent families, but also a virtuous wife.

To have both beauty and power—what could be more delightful in life!

Just then, the steward rushed in to report that a warhorse had gone missing from the stable.

"So what if it's lost? It's just one horse," Liu Biao waved his hand dismissively, clearly pleased with himself. Little did he know, the value of that warhorse far surpassed that of any other fine warhorse…

There are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers!

……

"--Ding!"

"—System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, because it was detected that you had defeated the Heavenly Generals Zhang Fei and Lü Bu in the Battle of Fate, you have met the hidden achievement conditions. You can add the reward for this division of the national artifact to your rewards. The system will directly provide you with a specific item. Do you accept?"

At this moment, another system notification appeared in Lin Mu's ear.

Upon hearing this system notification, a fierce glint appeared in Lin Mu's eyes.

Previously, he fought Zhang Fei during his life-or-death tribulation and won against the odds, but the system reward was so small. On the contrary, if he had lost, the price he would have paid was half of his Dragon Luck and zero merit. It was completely unfair. At the time, he didn't say anything... After all, stealing the Purple Qi was also a very outrageous thing, but the system did not punish him.

Now they're talking about fairness... The system is actually more inclined to favor and bless the native inhabitants, but for some reason it also invests in the players...

The secrets of heaven and earth within remain unsolved mysteries for now.

Lin Mu didn't get bogged down in details, nor did he argue about what was fair and unfair.

If it is given by Heaven, then accept it!

For the others, fight for what you can, and for what you can't, plan for them later!

"Accept!" Lin Mu silently repeated to himself.

The next moment, a brief system notification appeared:
"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have obtained two [Civilization Tower Token Fragments]."

Lin Mu's pupils contracted sharply upon hearing the system notification.

He had previously obtained a [Civilization Tower Token Fragment] after defeating Zhang Fei. He also received the Five Tigers' Fortune, which he initially thought was a system attempt to suppress him by only giving him such a small reward.

But now, all the achievement rewards combined with the reward for the national artifact's value have only given two [Civilization Tower Fragments], proving that this item is very important, even more important than the national artifact!!

At this moment, the [Ten Directions Battlefield Token] appeared in Lin Mu's mind... This series of tokens may represent the true foundation of the Divine Continent!
"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you can synthesize a complete [Civilization Tower Token] by collecting four [Civilization Tower Token Fragments].

Another notification appeared.

"Four are enough? We're one short!"

"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, because of your intervention in a special plot, the fate trajectories of relevant personnel have changed. You have obtained a special reward: [Southern Dipper Seven Kills Martial Arts Arena Teleportation Jade Talisman]."

"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, due to special circumstances, you are now being transported to the selected area of ​​the [Southern Dipper Seven Kills Martial Arts Arena]."

At this moment, two other unexpected system notifications appeared.

Lin Mu was still pondering the matter of the [Civilization Tower Token] when a feeling of weightlessness came over him. He opened and closed his eyes and found himself in the [Southern Dipper Seven Kill Martial Arts Arena].

The "Seven Kills of the Southern Dipper Arena" was created by Lu Bu, wasn't it? Isn't it a one-time use event? Is it similar in function to the "Ten Directions Battlefield"?
Looking at the dimly lit, vast, and desolate [Southern Dipper Seven Kill Martial Arts Arena], Lin Mu frowned.

Select an area? Select what? This place is so desolate, will different areas have different environments?
"Lin Mu!!!" Just then, Lu Bu's voice suddenly came.

Lin Mu suddenly turned around and found that Lu Bu was standing on a hillside several hundred meters away.

At this moment, Lu Bu had a deep, bone-revealing bloodstain on his body. It was not caused by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, or Zhang Fei, but by Lin Mu!

"So, you teleported here to avoid that attack!" Lin Mu said in realization.

"Hmph!!" Lu Bu snorted coldly without responding.

At this moment, he sensed that Lin Mu's cultivation had returned to the Heavenly Rank, but he dared not provoke Lin Mu recklessly. He was afraid that Lin Mu would unleash his full power against him without hesitation.

The next moment, Lü Bu was enveloped in a white light and disappeared.

"Did Lu Bu come in to choose a region, or is he its master?" Lin Mu immediately made another guess.

"--Ding!"

"—Announcement from the China Region: The bright moon rises over the Tianshan Mountains, amidst the vast sea of ​​clouds. Due to fulfilling special conditions, the [Seven Kills of the Southern Dipper Arena] has been revived. Players can enter the [Seven Kills of the Southern Dipper Arena] for duels at a certain cost. Participants will earn Southern Dipper Points. The [Seven Kills of the Southern Dipper Arena] will feature a [Southern Dipper Martial Arts Ranking], where those who rank highly will receive corresponding rewards." (End of Chapter)
