National Fate World.

Ning Yi sat up from the bed feeling refreshed.

He stretched and just as he was about to get up, the prompt of the national fate game suddenly sounded:

[Congratulations, player, you have successfully made ‘Jiu’ pregnant!]

[You have received a personal reward: Forest’s Child (C) upgrades to Forest’s Child (B), lifespan +5, Body, Strength, Agility, Intelligence +5, Charm +10, skill: Perfect Accuracy (C) upgrades to Perfect Accuracy (B), new skill acquired: Eagle Eye (B).]

[Kyushu has received a national reward: Forest’s Gift (D) upgrades to Forest’s Gift (C): within national borders, all citizens gain lifespan +2 and Agility +2 and receive the environment reward: Elf Forest (C).]

[Elf Forest (C): All plants within national borders will continuously generate trace amounts of ‘spiritual energy’ and this ‘spiritual energy’ will continuously improve citizens’ physical fitness.]

Jiu is pregnant?

Ning Yi was slightly stunned when he saw these lines.

Coming back to himself, he instinctively reached out to touch the elf lady’s flat belly.

Is the Milkcan Beast’s milk really that effective?

I am going to be a father?

Although he had been mentally prepared, faced with this moment he inevitably felt complicated emotions.

A little nervous, but more delighted.

‘Open panel.’

He silently recited in his heart.

[Panel]

[Name: Ning Yi]

[Affiliation: Kyushu]

[Current personal rewards: Forest’s Child (B), Ocean’s Child (C)]

[Attributes—]

[Body: 16→21]

[Strength: 15→20]

[Agility: 15→20]

[Intelligence: 16→21]

[Charm: 29→39]

[Skills: Perfect Accuracy (B), Like a Fish in Water (C), Eagle Eye (B): your vision is greatly enhanced and enemies’ movements appear slower to you.]

The attribute increase was the same magnitude as the bridal chamber and did not become double or more.

However, Perfect Accuracy upgraded and he also obtained the new skill Eagle Eye and with these two combined his current strength had increased severalfold.

Not bad.

“Mm—”

At this moment, Jiu opened her eyes in a daze.

She first looked at the hand on her belly, then, cheeks flushing said, “Darling, I am a bit tired, let us do it tonight.”

Clearly she had misunderstood that Ning Yi was still unsatisfied.

“What are you thinking?”

Hearing this, Ning Yi came back to himself then, half amused, pinched Jiu’s elf ear.

This was something only elf spouses did to express affection.

Unsurprisingly, Jiu’s cheeks grew even redder.

“Dummy, you are pregnant.”

He carefully pulled Jiu into his arms and said gently, “From today on you need to be careful, especially no strenuous exercise, understood.”

“Pregnant, I… I am going to be a mother.”

Jiu blinked, then instinctively touched her belly, face full of delight.

At these words.

Ariel, who had just woken up groggily beside them, jolted.

“Jiu is having a baby.”

She looked at Ning Yi with expectation, “Darling, what about me, am I going to be a mother too.”

“Not yet.”

Ning Yi shook his head and when Ariel showed disappointment he teased, “Do not worry, I will till the fields even harder later.”

“Hehe, I will wash up nice and clean and wait for you tonight.”

Ariel beamed and hugged Ning Yi’s arm, the disappointment gone without a trace.

What a little drama queen.

Next, after a bit more tender time with the two girls, Ning Yi got up and left Homestead.

He needed to continue exploring.

Outside at this time.

As Ning Yi’s stream resumed, all the Kyushu citizens saw those striking game prompts.

After a brief silence.

A cheer that shook heaven and earth followed.

“Damn, is the Milkcan Beast’s milk that strong, it directly got the elf girl pregnant.”

“This ‘Elf Forest’ effect is great, it feels like a revival of spiritual energy.”

“The key is it is sustainable and now… I want to know, if we start large‑scale afforestation, will this ‘Elf Forest’ effect get even better.”

“Of course, did it not say ‘all plants within national borders’, newly planted ones count too.”

“Unbeatable.”

“Ning Shen is awesome.”

“My grandpa’s body feels much better, thank you, Ning Shen.”

“Hahahaha, joy aside, whoever bet with me just now come out, I won, the elf girl got pregnant faster than the mermaid girl.”

“Right, the one who bet milk tea money with me, come out, do not hide.”

“Who is hiding, it is just a cup of milk tea, send me your account.”

“By the way, the pregnancy reward is already this magical, what will the childbirth reward be?”

“I am looking forward to it too.”

“Looking forward +1.”

Under the envious and resentful gazes of other countries’ citizens.

The Kyushu players cheered to their hearts’ content.

This was truly one step ahead and every step ahead.

Compared with the smooth‑sailing Ning Yi, players from other countries, aside from a few who had explored one or two rooms, were mostly still hiding in the initial room in fear.

There was simply no comparison.

“I only want to say one sentence on behalf of the people of Kyushu to Ning Yi.”

In the CCTV livestream room, Xiao Sa felt his body become more energetic and said with emotion, “Congratulations, you are going to be a father.”

“This is indeed something worth congratulating.”

Ma Fanshu beside him nodded, “But at the same time, Ning Yi, we must also thank you.”

It was only the second day.

But she could already vaguely see it.

With Ning Yi’s help, Kyushu would once again stand at the pinnacle of the world.

Kyushu officialdom.

After seeing the powerful effect of ‘Elf Forest’.

The Great Elder directly ordered the relevant departments to begin planting all kinds of vegetation nationwide with full effort.

In the past, everything had to give way to economic development and now, afforestation had become the top priority and everything else had to step aside.

“We cannot waste the advantage Ning Yi has created for us, we must expand it further.”

The Great Elder spoke with firm resolve.

Fortunately, Kyushu had long experience in afforestation.

For example, the Three‑North Shelterbelt Project that had continued for decades had successfully eliminated deserts beyond counting.

Now, experience could be applied.

Then the nation’s resources would be tilted in full and in as short a time as possible the entire northern deserts would be planted.

At such a time, there was no need to consider losses, time was everything.

“Understood.”

The leaders of the relevant departments nodded quickly.

“Also, Ning Yi’s second wife is a mermaid and I suspect the pregnancy reward is likely to be related to water, so we must prepare in advance.”

The Great Elder pondered for a moment, then shook his head, “No, preparing in advance is not enough, start related work directly, for example, those enterprises that pollute water sources, those willing to reform will reform and those unwilling will be shut down.”

He had always been a bold man.

Now that Kyushu faced a once‑in‑a‑millennium great transformation, there could be no indecision.

“Yes.”

The subordinates responded.

Next, the meeting ended and the state machine began to run.

The authorities also directly issued an announcement:

[The Afforestation Plan is launched, the state is now hiring relevant experts and professionals at high pay, committed to filling all domestic deserts with trees within three years.]

[This is a program that seeks no profit with an unlimited budget.]

[Anyone with ambition is welcome to join.]
