Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

The next day.

As dawn broke on the horizon, the entire capital city awoke from its slumber.

Like a giant dragon awakening from a beautiful dream, its loud and ethereal roar soared into the sky, sweeping away the clouds.

The blazing sun shone brightly on the earth, but the cool moonlight did not fade away. Instead, it shone on the horizon, reflecting the sun's light like a divine miracle.

But even with the sun and moon shining brightly, they still couldn't block out the light of the countless stars.

The stars twinkled in the dark universe, and strands of starlight fell down. At this moment, it seemed as if the entire universe was celebrating.

Above the capital, azure winds swirled and circled, like a tapestry; majestic pure-blooded dragons weaved through them, their roars like hymns, their wings flapping, scattering golden fragments of light across the entire city.

The royal city was filled with jubilation, where the beauty of all races was on full display. Even the elves, renowned as the most beautiful creatures in the world, were merely accompaniments in this grand celebration.

"This is the grandeur of the Golden Age, one of the most prosperous eras in legend. Even if it is just an illusion, it is still captivating."

The pastor's eyes lit up with wonder, and he slowed his pace to savor this rare spectacle.

The other players didn't act immediately either. After all, it would be beneficial to learn more about what happened before the illusion completely disappeared.

The chaos of the previous two days has vanished without a trace, leaving only beauty and prosperity.

Even the virtual NPCs had genuine joy on their faces.

Inside a building constructed of giant wood, a beautiful fairy girl opened the door and fluttered her wings as she descended onto the street.

Fragrant scales drifted through the air between her dazzling wings, and passing players couldn't help but be captivated by the scent.

"Wow, if I could really marry such a stunning beauty, I'd be willing to die here!"

"Ah, I won't die until I can talk about something like that in this lifetime."

Under the intense gazes of many, the fairy girl gathered her hair and frowned slightly.

"On such a beautiful day, how could I run into these weirdos? What bad luck..."

The fairy girl pouted, gathered her gorgeous skirt, and slowly walked towards the central square.

The joy of the holiday quickly dispelled her displeasure, and her face regained its charming smile.

Just as she was immersed in joy and anticipation, a furtive figure suddenly blocked her way.

"Oh, beautiful lady, would you mind taking up a little of your time?"

"I mind, I really mind!"

The fairy girl said coldly, and with a flap of her wings, she was about to bypass this guy.

However, the mysterious man in black robes persisted, blocking his way once more and speaking to himself:

"Please allow me to introduce you to our supreme King, the all-knowing and all-powerful Lord."

"He is the inheritor of the eternally burning blood, the newborn King of Life and Death and Fire!"

"He is the true dragon's keeper, a legend who rose from the dead!"

"He is the Creator who glimpsed the embers of truth!"

The person before me uttered a devout and excited low murmur, with wisps of flame flickering around him.

"Where did these cult members come from?"

The fairy girl frowned slightly, instinctively sensing that something was amiss.

"Alright, to avoid taking up any more of your precious time, I won't go into more details about the doctrines. If you're interested, you can take a look at this booklet."

Before the fairy girl could react, a booklet was shoved into her hand.

The booklet was extremely crude, with only a blood-red flame-shaped pattern printed on the cover, which somehow gave it a strangely sacred feel.

"Are you crazy? Who would watch something like this..."

The fairy girl pouted, preparing to throw away what she was holding.

However, the intense curiosity inherent in fairies caused her to stop moving.

She stood there in silence for a long time, and finally, as if possessed, she opened the booklet.

The booklet contained no doctrines, only twisted and intertwined runes written in ashes.

"Hmph, they really are liars, and they even hid razor blades inside!"

The fairy girl tossed the booklet aside, and a flash of blue light appeared in her hand, instantly healing the finger that had been cut by the blade.

"Thump—"

A thunderous sound, like the grandest bell, resounded, and a blue wind swept across the long steps, with a vast procession lined up on both sides.

At the end of the long staircase, a graceful and otherworldly figure appeared, with a crown on his head radiating boundless light.

"Welcome, Your Majesty!"

A grand chorus of praise resounded, and even the giant dragons in the sky folded their wings and bowed their heads in reverence.

The fairy girl's eyes lit up:

"The grand ceremony has begun!"

She quickly started walking, following the flow of people towards the central square.

Behind her, on the forgotten book, a smear of blood slowly illuminated the gray runes.

In the void, a blazing light flickered, appearing and disappearing, both real and unreal.

On the long steps, Xiao Yun looked at the shimmering lights before him, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Everyone did a great job. In just a few days, so many more Fire Seed Servants have been created."

Although most of them are virtual NPCs, that's exactly the effect Xiao Yun wanted.

"I hope I'm just overthinking it."

Xiao Yun murmured to himself, his steps never faltering, as he descended the long steps and stopped on the high platform in the center of the square.

The arrangements for this grand ceremony differed slightly from previous ones. The platform where the Dragon King was located was more spacious and decorated more lavishly, with the seating subtly divided into two parts.

It didn't look like a grand ceremony stage; it looked more like a tense negotiating table.

Xiao Yun stood in the center, raised his hand slightly, and said a brief opening remark.

"The ceremony begins. Please make yourselves at home."

No one was surprised, because the Dragon King was just like that; he didn't like formalities.

However, unlike the lively atmosphere that followed the start of previous ceremonies, this time the atmosphere was somewhat somber.

Even the most obtuse dwarf guessed the other purpose of this grand event.

Talks with the Protoss.

"Hmph, the appointed time has arrived, and those fellows are still nowhere to be found, keeping our king waiting—a capital offense!"

"Xiao Yun's left hand," Ji Mingyu said coldly, while the other ministers also looked rather grim.

The ministers whispered amongst themselves, their eyes filled with contempt and resentment, preparing to thoroughly humiliate the divine hyenas later.

Taking advantage of the distraction, Ji Mingyu pulled a contract from his sleeve and secretly handed it to Xiao Yun.

"The contract you requested."

"Oh? So fast."

Xiao Yun took it, rubbed it vigorously with his hands, and raised an eyebrow in surprise:

"Why is there only one?"

Beside him, Ji Mingyu smiled proudly:

"Hehe, this is my masterpiece. Don't even mention you, even if the true King of Illusion and Wind came, He wouldn't be able to tell the difference!"

Xiao Yun turned his head and glanced at him, noticing that his face was somewhat pale, his tall body was hunched over, and he looked exhausted.

"You've worked hard. If things really turn out the way I expect, you'll be the biggest contributor."

Ji Mingyu gave a wry smile and shook his head slightly:

"I still advise you to take it easy and not do anything reckless. Even if we can't kill the Dragon King, we can at least escape, but with your plan... what if something really goes wrong..."

Before he could finish speaking, a great light shone brightly above his head.

A radiant portal opened, and a group of angels in white emerged.

The ethereal and melodious chanting echoed between heaven and earth, as if countless devout believers were singing sacred songs.

As they took their first steps, holy wings descended from the sky, carpeting the ground for them.

"They're here!"

Everyone was startled as they watched the divine envoy slowly approach.

The angels were holy and immaculate, radiating a faint light that dispelled much of the discontent in the crowd's hearts, and even reduced their discrimination.

Strangely, the alluring female angel on the right side of the group was trembling uncontrollably, with faint, viscous sounds of water emanating from her.

"Oh~ I can sense the presence of a young man..."

Jing Feiwan's eyes were burning, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

Xiao Yun frowned and transmitted his thoughts telepathically:

"Stop being a slut!"

Jing Feiwan's delicate body trembled suddenly, and an abnormal blush appeared on her face, but she quickly returned to normal.

"Greetings, King of Illusion and Wind!"

The tall angel bowed slightly to greet the Dragon King.

Then, he waved his hand, and a pile of exquisite gifts was presented to him.

"Please do not find the gifts prepared by our lords distasteful, Dragon King."

"Okay, let's leave it there for now."

Xiao Yun said calmly, then went straight to the point:

"Let's talk about... the alliance you proposed."

His voice was calm, yet it struck everyone's hearts like a thunderclap.

"They're here!"

Among the crowd, the pastor's eyes shone with a dazzling light.

"Sure enough, it's exactly the same as recorded in history."

Historical records state that the King of Illusion and the King of Wind were extremely arrogant, and began their discussions before the divine messengers were even seated.

What followed was even simpler.

"The Dragon King never wanted to cooperate with the gods. He just wanted to take this opportunity to publicly humiliate them and let the gods realize their status as hyenas."

The pastor gazed at the sky with a deep, melancholy look, and suddenly sighed softly:

"But unfortunately, He was wrong."

The gods were not prepared to cooperate with Him from the beginning.

Moreover, the gods were not the hyenas He thought they were, but ferocious beasts capable of devouring dragons!

To lull the Dragon King and the dragon race into complacency, the gods have been yielding for a long time, and for this opportunity today, they have been willing to grovel before the Dragon King for countless years.

It is precisely for this purpose that, today, we leave the dragon race with an unforgettable wound.

"According to historical records, for the sake of today, the gods did not hesitate to kill the first God of Time and Space, and used the divine source of countless first gods to set up an earth-shattering killing array that was enough to shield the Dragon King's senses."

The pastor narrowed his eyes, looking at the calm sky, yet he seemed to already sense the resolute killing intent emanating from it.

After today, either the gods will replace the dragons and rule the world, or... the gods will perish!

This is a high-stakes gamble with no way out!

"Perhaps it's because fate is in the hands of the gods, and they won..."

The pastor sighed inwardly, calmed himself, and awaited the arrival of the final moment.

According to his conjecture, if the King of Illusion and Reality wanted to use historical fragments to transform the illusory into the real, he would inevitably have to depict the most profound aspects of this historical period.

And with his own strength, he could, in that instant, use the power of the Gods' Killing Array to suppress and kill the Dragon King!

Among the crowd, the other players also had their eyes burning with anticipation, ready to make their move.

Most people aren't fools. Although they don't know the inside story, they can guess that this is the best time to act.

Everyone was poised and waiting for the divine messenger and the Dragon King to deliver their predetermined lines.

At the head of the divine messenger procession, a tall angel with a deep, unfathomable gaze was ready to refute the Dragon King's insults and activate the killing formation.

But at that moment, the Dragon King laughed:

"I am willing to cooperate and join the ranks of the gods."

"..."

The entire room fell silent; the whole world seemed to freeze, utterly still.

But in the endless, distant heavens, in the void, a sigh tinged with relief arose:

"After waiting for endless years, finally... I've waited for it!"

……

The shift between reality and illusion is progressing... 95%...
