They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 260 The First All-Race Conference on Avalon
Danlei continues to ignore Aha's recruitment.

There's no way around it; the Masked Fools have such a terrible reputation in the universe, and their stench is different from the stench of the Antimatter Legion.

They're somewhat like someone you encounter on a bus or subway who has body odor.

These people haven't done anything particularly heinous, so it's not good to say anything to them; you can only silently avoid them with disdain.

Therefore, Danlei definitely cannot allow himself to be labeled as the Masked Fool, otherwise his reputation in the universe would be like gold stained with excrement—no matter how valuable, it would still be rotten.

Seeing that Danlei still refused to accept the recruitment, [Aha] could only leave dejectedly.

He also needs to go into space to select interesting match combinations and various experts. A month is a tight schedule.

Danlei also began the preliminary arrangements for the game activities.

First, Danlei used his authority to issue a global announcement.

"To all intelligent life on Avalon."

The interstellar age is coming.

To distinguish between outsiders and the planet's native inhabitants.

The personal control panel system is about to launch.

Once the system is activated, all life forms on the planet can access a panel that only they can view, containing their basic information.

If you encounter unknown intelligent life in the future, you can bring up a panel to see if others are from this planet.

You can also view information about other life forms on this planet.

The panel only displays information about race, whether the inhabitants are from another planet, and whether they are wanted by the authorities.

There's no need to worry about your personal information being exposed because of the panel.

The panel that Danlei created sounds fancy, but it's actually just an ID card.

It has only one purpose: to facilitate the future distinction between immigrants and local residents.

After all, most humans look alike. If aliens wear local clothes, most locals wouldn't be able to tell who the aliens are and who the native humans are.

Now is the best time to implement this system, because at this moment the only outsiders on the planet are the Star Trains, and all other intelligent life forms are locals.

The Starry Sky Train crew also has panels, but when others explore them, the patterns displayed on the frames are different from those of the natives.

As for the issue of wanted status, whether it's local or alien, once someone is wanted, the panel frame will turn red.

In this way, when someone in the red information box provokes someone, everyone will be more vigilant, reducing the rate of recidivism and making it easier for the court to arrest criminals.

The native intelligent races of Avalon have become accustomed to Danlei's occasional alterations to the world's rules.

Danlei is the only god; no one can protest against him even if they want to.

Therefore, all races silently accepted it.

Because once this panel is released, it will also be beneficial for the management of various races.

From now on, you'll be able to tell what race someone is at a glance, no matter how well they disguise themselves.

This would make it much easier to capture spies from other races, and would also make border control easier for people entering and leaving the country.

However, before those extremely xenophobic races could even rejoice for a few minutes, all the monarchs and commanders who had established nations and cities simultaneously received a summons from Danlei.

When God calls, no one dares to refuse.

So, in the next second, apart from the gods, demons, fantasy creatures, and elves, the other twelve race leaders were all pulled by Dan Lei into the huge reception room of Avalon City.

At this moment, Dan Lei also summoned the Starry Sky Train crew, intending to take this opportunity to let the train crew become acquainted with the leaders of various countries.

Seeing that the leaders of all twelve races had arrived, Dan Lei immediately smiled.
"Everyone, it's been twelve years. How are you all doing?"

Before Danlei left last time, he traveled to various races, so he had met at least all of the people present, and many of them were even acquaintances.

The human king of the already established Kingdom of Elchia is Rick Dora, who is thirty years old.

Now, with a full beard and a muscular build, he is a figure whose fate is fraught with uncertainty; he no longer resembles the cheerful, masked fool.

The others—Azriel of the Skywing race, Nina Clyver of the Forest Elf race, Ronid Launiel of the Goblin race, and Reganreif of the Dragon Elf race—are all old friends.

Since Danlei became the only god, although he had many tricks up his sleeve, he did bring peace to all races. Therefore, these former enemies and "friends" greeted Danlei with great respect.

Afterwards, Dan Lei gave a brief introduction to the Starry Sky Train crew to the others, and once they were familiar with the crew, they left the stage.

After the train crew left, Danlei asked with a smile.
"I know that everyone has questions about my two changes to the world rules since I came back this time."

Before I announce the important matters, please feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

After Dan Lei said that, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

It's not that they don't have problems, but that they're afraid to be the first to speak up.

Don't be fooled by Dan Lei's cheerful demeanor now. As the only god, he is now the true god-king, holding the power of life and death over all life on the planet.

The twelve covenants clearly state that he himself is special and not bound by any covenant.

So, in the end, it was Reganlev, the "smart dragon" from the same clan, who spoke first, asking what he considered a rather insignificant question.

"Your Majesty, the Mr. Danheng you just introduced, is he also one of our kind? But why have I never seen him before? When did he leave the planet to become some kind of nameless stranger?"

This is actually a very pointed question; Regan Lef asked it right away because he knew absolutely nothing about it.

Fortunately, Dan Lei was no longer going to hide the fact that he was actually an alien visitor.

Because once the game starts, [Aha] will be recruiting people from the outside world, and this can't be kept secret.

So Danlei directly reiterated the theory of planetary immortality to the racial leaders present, in order to emphasize his legitimacy in inheriting the planet.

After Danlei finished speaking, everyone of the native race present, except for Rick, had their pupils tremble.

Rick wasn't surprised simply because he had already come into contact with Hanabi and knew she was from outer space.

Therefore, he had long suspected that Danlei was not a local dragon. However, during the war of the gods, as a human tribal leader struggling on the edge of life and death, he had no right to speak.

After Danlei obtained the throne of the One God, it would be suicidal for him to jump out again.

However, for other races, the feeling at this moment is like the death of their grandfather, and after fighting for the inheritance for a long time, the inheritance is intercepted by the grandfather's nephew who came from nowhere.

But they cannot protest yet, because almost all the races present were created a second time by the divine race.

Humans are the only species that evolved naturally. (This is the official setting from the original work; don't ask how humans could evolve civilization when surrounded by powerful enemies who could wipe them out with a stomp of their feet.)

According to Danlei, all the races present were of the grandchild generation, and he was of a higher generation than everyone else.

Frankly, this is an explanation that no one wants to accept.

But then I thought, Danlei is already the only god, so it seems pointless to deny it now.

If you dare to cause trouble, they could wipe out your entire clan with a single thought.

Thinking of this, Regan Leif, who was of the same bloodline and considered a member of the same clan, decisively acknowledged Dan Lei's identity and said...
"I see. No wonder Your Majesty the God King possesses power surpassing that of gods. It's not surprising now."

Seeing that Regenlev had backed down, the other races naturally followed suit without hesitation, so as not to anger Danlei.

As for the questions I originally wanted to ask, there's no need to ask them now.

Danlei was originally an outsider, so it was normal for him to bring other outsiders into the planet and connect it to the universe.

Dan Lei was satisfied to see that everyone was so sensible. These people were simply unaware of the vastness of the universe, hence their dissatisfaction.

In the future, they will all be grateful to themselves for providing them with shelter.

Therefore, Danlei did not bring up the topic of outsiders again, but instead announced...

"Now that everyone has no questions, let me explain why I've gathered you all here."

I ended the war of gods and set up a world where victory and defeat are determined by games and competitions, and no one will die from war and plunder anymore.

However, in the twelve years I was gone, it seems that only humans understood what I meant.

Other races continue to tirelessly use individual combat skills to determine who is superior.

Of course, this is in accordance with the regulations, and I didn't say that everyone did something wrong.

However, I feel I need to show what my vision of the world should look like.

Therefore, I'm planning to create a game for everyone, a game with a super grand prize for everyone.

After speaking, Danlei gave each ethnic representative a copy of the printed plan for them to read.

For the rest of the time, only the sound of turning pages filled the meeting room.

Dan Lei was very patient and didn't rush them. After about an hour and a half, everyone had carefully read the plan and were all full of doubts.

Seeing this, Dan Lei said directly
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm not that cruel, and I'm quite patient."

After Danlei finished speaking, Nina, who had already changed back into men's clothing, hesitated for a moment before finally asking a question.

"Your Majesty, what is a messenger?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei realized that he had never explained the true power levels of the universe to them.

Of those present, only Rick had probably heard a thing or two from Hanabi.

Dan Lei then carefully explained the power system of the Star Iron Universe to these racial leaders.

After listening to Danlei's explanation, Rick, who had the highest acceptance of the power of destiny and possessed the power of a joyful destiny himself, immediately asked excitedly.

"Your Majesty, are you saying that the power of the messenger is even stronger than your power during the divine war?"

Dan Lei nodded in response without any hesitation.

"Yes, when I participated in the God War twelve years ago, my strength was such that I could only be humiliated by an Envoy-level being."

However, you don't need to get too excited. With my current strength, I can easily suppress a mere Commander with a single hand.

Dan Lei wasn't lying here. On Avalon, Dan Lei could use all the powers of the Destiny of Joy through the planet.

[Aha] The token reward from this game probably won't give much power. If you encounter the complete power of the Joyful Destiny, you can really suppress it with one hand.

Dan Lei's words immediately suppressed everyone's budding thoughts.

Because nobody's stupid. If this so-called Envoy-level power could pose a threat to Dan Lei, why would he release it here?

Even if there is a real threat, judging from his attitude of competing as a player, he has already decided to win the championship.

In short, everyone here is just accompanying the emperor in his studies.

However, the other conditions offered by Danlei were quite good.

Unlike the initial draft given to [Aha], Danlei's version for the twelve tribes clearly outlined their rewards afterward.

First, Danlei promises to build a cave for their country afterward for all those who actively participate in the game, in order to increase the country's land area and planting area.

The gym restricts the three races with the most players, and Danlei can also remove some of the races' disadvantages or grant them some blessings.

For these racial leaders, the most unacceptable part of the plan was that all countries had to open their borders, allowing players to move freely.

The docks and ports of various countries also need to coordinate with players traveling between the two continents to allocate ships.

Therefore, Nina, representing the Forest Elves who have been developing in the Lucia continent for the past twelve years and have already come into conflict with the rapidly developing humans, said...

"Your Majesty, our Forest Elf Clan has no problem with this plan."

But opening the borders and allowing three filthy races—humans, beastmen, and vampires—to enter is something we forest elves find hard to accept.

Nina said that these three races were dirty, and that humans were to blame.

Because the main conflicts of the forest elves are with humans, the orcs are merely caught in the crossfire.

Because the orcs and humans of the continent of Lucia had formed a friendship during the time of Avalon, after Danlei drove the two groups out of the city and made them independent, an alliance was naturally formed.

Humans are good at growing crops, while orcs are good at hunting.

Therefore, humans supplied food to orcs, and orcs sold meat and furs to humans.

With neither side's population having yet exploded, the two sides are cooperating very well.

As for vampires, they are simply shameful and harmful to people, which is why they are hated by forest elves.

However, Nina's words proved true; the now fully mature Rick was no pushover.

Humans are not lacking in military strength. In several encounters with the forest elves, they have won several times by utilizing other technologies that the other side is not good at, such as combat.

Therefore, Rick directly mocked

"We humans are dirty? Heh, apart from your fair skin, what part of you forest elves is clean?"
If you're so capable, then don't use covenants to bind humanity into slavery, making them farm and weave cloth for you.

You're not good at magic, so why don't you just wave your hands and make the grains grow?

By the way, I've assembled a circus from the people I captured in the game, and they perform every day. Queen Nina, come visit us sometime.

We, the Kingdom of Elzia, welcome you.

Seeing that Rick and Nina were about to start arguing after exchanging a few words, Danlei immediately interrupted them.
"King Rick, King Nina, silence!"
Queen Nina, during the tournament, I request that all races temporarily set aside their previous hatred and prejudices and fully cooperate in supporting this tournament.

This is not a discussion, it is a notification.

If I'm really still angry, I'll add another rule for the countries of the top three gyms.

The winner can forgo the blessing and instead cast a curse upon the enemy. How about that?

Danlei's rule change here is to force all races to actively hold events to attract players to his region and compete for the top three spots in the gymnastics arena.

Because the dojo needs to eliminate more players, it needs to attract more players.

It's difficult to strike the right balance between making it extremely challenging and attracting players.

　I revised the previous chapter; I forgot to mention that the divine species, fantasy species, and elf species also do not have the concept of countries.

　　Because the Forest Spirits did not use up their Fantasy Species to activate the Spirit Destruction Technique during the last great battle.

　　Therefore, most of the fantasy species still coexist with the forest elves.

　　Therefore, its emblem is the responsibility of the Forest Elf.

　　As for the Elf species, it wasn't mentioned in the original work, so it was directly classified as the Fairy species.

　　As for the divine race, the protagonist is the sole decision-maker.
