"Father … Father of Nation? Li Yao! "
Li Yao was dumbfounded. He observed the statue carefully, only to discover that, although its face was covered by the virtual helmet, there was indeed a tiny pedestal below its feet, on which a sentence was engraved.
"It is not enough for a man to have the planet below his feet. He should also have a more brilliant future — Li Yao. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ w]

This was what he called seeing a ghost!
Li Yao blinked hard and mumbled, "Wait a moment. Let's make sure that this' Li Yao 'is not Vulture Li Yao, the legendary dominator of three Sectors, right?"
"Exactly!"
Ling Xiaole nodded her head solemnly. Blinking her big, watery eyes, she looked at the statue in admiration. "From the old Federation to the new Federation, we only have one Li Yao, Vulture Li Yao!"
Li Yao coughed hard, then again, and again. "I don't know much about the history of the Federation. Don't lie to me! I know that the earliest version of 'Civilization' was created by many sects and people. Well … Vulture Li Yao proposed such an idea, but it was Professor Su Changfa, the dean of the Sociology Department of the Grand Desolate War Institution, who really put the idea into practice in the early years! At that time, Professor Su Changfa was the one who was praised as the 'Father of Civilization'. How did he become Li Yao? However brilliant and brilliant Li Yao is, he can't be blamed for everything good! "
Ling Xiaole opened her hands and said, "You are a wise man. Of course, I can't fool you. It's true that Professor Su Changfa is more qualified to be the 'Father of Civilization' than Vulture Li Yao. However, Su Changfa is an Immortal Cultivator. It's fine if he is a common Immortal Cultivator, but his true disciple, Lu Qingchen, is the most wanted criminal of the Federation. Although the Federation is free to think now, we can't worship an Immortal Cultivator every day, can we?
"Li Yao is said to be the 'Father of Civilization' for a reason.
"I don't know how much of the history of the game 'Civilization' have you read. It must be noted that the origin of the 'grand-unified virtual world' was the 'brainwashing illusions' of the Imperium of True Human Beings that Li Yao personally provided by Su Changfa.
"In the illusions, Su Changfa played the rise and fall of quite a few Sectors in the past for Li Yao, as well as the rise of 'Blackstar the Great', who bragged about himself in the Imperium. His original intention was to transform Li Yao into an Immortal Cultivator. However, how can the dominator of three Sectors be brainwashed so easily?
"Not only was Li Yao not fooled, he even had an epiphany when the Kunlun relics were fully developed not long later. He came up with the idea of turning the 'brainwashing illusions' into a tool to open the wisdom of the people and educate them!
"It was not until he proposed such an idea first that Su Changfa, Professor Mo Xuan, and the other specialists put it into practice.
"If Li Yao hadn't resisted the brainwashing of the Immortal Cultivators in the Kunlun relics, and if he hadn't proposed such an epoch-making idea later, it is not to say that we would never have been able to develop a 'grand-unified virtual world' in a different form, but the time would certainly have been greatly delayed. It was very possible that it would have been delayed by fifty to sixty years.
"Not just fifty to sixty years, even if the development had been delayed by thirty to forty years, without the connection of the grand-unified Spiritual Nexus, the seven Sectors of the Federation today couldn't have been so close. The seven Sectors that were in a state of disunity had absolutely no chance of winning against the expedition army of the Imperium at all. It was the consensus conclusion that countless players of 'Civilization' deduced on their own countless times.
"Besides, Li Yao was not just proposing the idea. He also supported the development team of 'Civilization' with his unparalleled wealth and influence in the old Federation era!
"It must be noted that, even in terms of 'games', 'Civilization' in the early years was a super game that was unprecedentedly large in scale and had an almost infinite production cycle. It was prepared to accommodate everybody in the world from the very beginning! Just think about it. How much did it cost to produce such a game?
"At that time, faced with the threat of the expedition army of the Imperium, the people of the Federation were more or less panicked. They launched bizarre, whimsical plans one after another. Also, the excavation of the Kunlun relics required money in every aspect.
"Compared to the projects such as the repair of the Colossi, the production of the new Crystal Suit, and the construction of the 'Solar Warriors', the game 'Civilization' barely had any practical benefits other than the vague 'wisdom of the people'. It was essentially a bottomless hole that could not be filled no matter how much money was burned.
"Had it not been for Li Yao's vigorous support, and the Glorious Sunlight Group, Skyfire, and the Yuanying and demon emperors that he knew were all burning money incessantly for his sake, 'Civilization' wouldn't have made it to what it is today. Chances are that it would have starved to death in its infancy.
"Professor Su Changfa … was indeed a respectable 'enemy', wasn't he? But however wise and great he was, he was just a powerless captive at that time. Had it not been for Li Yao's wealth and influence, how could he have had the chance to finish the production of the original version of 'Civilization'?
"All in all, God Li Yao was indeed a great man who was far-sighted, wise, and wise beyond his time! Although he was regarded as the dominator of three Sectors, his profound influence on the New Federation has not been fully explored to this day. In the days to come, as the Federation continues to march forward and the grand-unified Spiritual Nexus is fully unfolded in the entire universe, he will certainly be reknown by the world! "
Ling Xiaole's voice was full of emotion.
Li Yao had goosebumps all over his body. Seeing that the two pointy fox ears on the girl's head had turned pink, she must've been too excited to control herself.
Li Yao thought for a moment and realized that there was no need for her to act on such details, which meant that she truly admired 'Li Yao'.
Li Yao was even more amused. "Are you serious? Is he really so great? Even if he is truly the 'father of' Civilization ', what is the meaning of' father of our nation '? Isn't it an exaggeration? "
"Not exactly."
Ling Xiaole shook her head and said solemnly, "Think about it. The Xing Yao Federation's external expansion is different from that of the Imperium and the Holy League. It is destined that 'conquest by force' will not be our main approach. The integration of the four new Sectors did not have a battle until we reached the Uranian Ring Sector.
"During the integration of the four new Sectors, the grand-unified Spiritual Nexus represented by 'Civilization' played a significant role. Only by integrating 'Civilization' can we truly integrate into the Federation!
"One day, we will march to the center of the cosmos, but we cannot conquer all the Sectors by force. 'Civilization' is the most powerful leverage for us to attract, assimilate, and govern the new Sectors. It is our greatest reliance against the Imperium and the Holy League.
"That is why I said just now that 'Civilization' is the cornerstone of the Federation. It is even the 'New Federation' itself!
"If the brilliance of the Xing Yao Federation truly spreads to the three thousand Sectors one day and all the Sectors of human beings are incorporated into the system of 'Civilization', is there a problem for Li Yao, as the 'father of' Civilization ', to be called the father of such a Federation?"
Li Yao tilted his head and thought for a long time with his mouth open. "There doesn't seem to be a problem."
Ling Xiaole smiled delightedly. "I didn't know that your mind was so up-to-date after hundreds of years of hibernation! It must be noted that most people in the Federation cannot accept such a theory. Only the hardcore players like us can say that. But it doesn't matter. Everything will be proven in the future. Long live God Li Yao! "
"W-Wait a moment!"
There was a dark cloud on Li Yao's forehead, and his sweat was pouring out like raindrops. "Even if — well, even if this Li Yao really becomes the father of the new Federation by accident, there is no need for him to be called a 'god', is there? Also, why are those people gathered here? Burning incense and worshipping Buddha in such a foul atmosphere? Isn't this blatant personal worship? It doesn't fit the spirit of 'everybody is equal' of the new Federation, does it?"
"Oh, you misunderstood me."
Ling Xiaole explained patiently, "This is not personal worship. They don't necessarily consider Li Yao as the father of the new Federation. However, before they enter the game, it is beneficial for them to worship God Li Yao first!"
Li Yao frowned. "What are the benefits?"
Ling Xiaole: "You will be luckier in 'Civilization'. After all, he is the 'Father of Civilization'. Who else can you worship if not him?"
Li Yao: "Luckier? Explain! "
Ling Xiaole: "For example, in the war DLC 'Imperium's Counterattack', whether or not the forces under your control can produce a main-force warship in one attempt, the critical hit rate of the main-force warship in the battle with the enemy, how long you can persist after your own side is damaged … A lot of factors are random. You can call it luck, or you can call it metaphysics.
"It is said that if you worship God Li Yao before you enter 'Civilization', your luck will soar to the sky. You will be able to build a super main-force warship in one attempt, blow up the arsenal of the enemy with one shot, and remain standing after being bombarded by crystal cannons thousands of times … If it is a daily operation DLC, there will be fewer natural disasters, more positive random events, and you will be able to pick up money on the street when you are on the road.
"On the other hand, if you forget to worship God Li Yao, you will be miserable. Even if you concentrate a lot of resources on the production of the starships, the starships will be blown up uncannily before they are completed. Sometimes, your engine will be destroyed the moment you take the first shot on the battlefield. Sometimes, you will miss the critical parts of the enemy after you shoot a hundred times … If it is an operation DLC mission, the workers will riot, natural disasters will come, the transportation routes will be robbed by space pirates, and you will run into disgusting holdouts in the new area. You will be overwhelmed and unlucky!
"It's not a big deal if you save more contribution points and Completion Rate and worship God Li Yao for better luck!"
Li Yao was rather stunned. "Wait. Don't you claim that the game is 100% realistic? Is there so much random luck in it?"
"It is 100% realistic, but it doesn't mean that it has to be so complicated every time. Most people will still adjust the difficulty to an appropriate level, especially for some of the individual quests."
Ling Xiaole said matter-of-factly, "Besides, is luck not important even in reality? The success of a general depends on ten thousand dead bodies. How many battles have been won since ancient times? Success or failure, life or death all depends on luck in many cases!"
Fine. Li Yao could not argue with that. He glanced at a few guys who were worshipping his statue and throwing coins at the head of his statue. "However, even if luck does exist, does it mean that your luck will be doubled if you worship Li Yao? That's too absurd. Isn't it a superstition? "
