Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 162: Chapter 153: Realm-Breaking Pill, Galaxy Airship

”Stop! Stop! This summoning is hurting me!” Ji Liangren shouted. ”I was wrong! Big Bro, Master, Adoptive Father, stop playing around! You’re going to break me!”

Wang Yi stopped the summoning. He was leading the Monkey Kings to explore the other passages. He turned to Ji Liangren and said, ”Tell me about your abilities in detail. Let me see if you’re of any use.”

”Alright!” Ji Liangren realized that this master of his was no pushover. Since things had come to this, he didn’t dare show off anymore. He followed behind Wang Yi, crawling as he went, and began to boast about his abilities.

Wang Yi listened quietly. ’This guy probably isn’t weak,’ he thought. ’He can track and transform. It might not be a bad idea to have another Player companion who can be summoned to my side at any time.’

”There’s a Lord Player in these ruins who came in even earlier than me. He should have entered this passage to explore by now. Big Bro, should we go after him?”

Wang Yi shook his head and pointed to another passage. Inside, 20 Bayonet Robots could be clearly seen. It connected to Armory No. 2.

”Armory No. 2 is right in front of us. We’ll explore it first. You, turn into a puppy and slip inside to see if it’s empty.”

”Okay!”

Ji Liangren activated his Transformation. This time, he turned into a small black mutt. He walked into the passage, wagging his tail, and the Bayonet Robots actually ignored him.

”WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF!”

Ji Liangren was ecstatic. He barked a few times at Wang Yi, then swaggered off toward Armory No. 2, his tail wagging.

Wang Yi was a little surprised to see this. ’Turning into a puppy to avoid aggro... Ji Liangren’s ability is definitely a Divine Skill for exploring ruins!’

Soon, the little black dog backed out of the passage, wagging its tail. It stood at Wang Yi’s feet and barked at him. ”WOOF WOOF WOOF.”

”Use your words!”

Ji Liangren turned back into his human form. ”It’s empty!”

”Then on to the next one!”

Wang Yi immediately turned and strode toward the passage to Armory No. 3.

The passage to Armory No. 3 was heavily guarded, with over a hundred Bayonet Robots lined up in neat rows inside.

Without waiting for Wang Yi’s command, Ji Liangren immediately transformed into a puppy and went inside. As expected, he wasn’t attacked at all. But he quickly ran back out, shook his head, and let out two barks.

’So many Bayonet guards for an empty armory?’

Wang Yi muttered to himself but didn’t delay, continuing to lead Ji Liangren to explore the other passages.

A short while later, Wang Yi discovered the team led by Li Mingli. They were attacking Armory No. 6.

Only ten Bayonet Robots were guarding Armory No. 6, a relatively weak defense.

However, it wasn’t easy for Li Mingli’s team to take them down. They had already lost quite a few soldiers.

Wang Yi didn’t interfere. He quietly detoured around them and continued his exploration.

Ten minutes later, Armory No. 10 was confirmed to be a True Armory. It was guarded by 40 Bayonet Robots.

To speed up the exploration, Wang Yi refreshed and used his Third-stage Illusion Clone, sending nine Monkey Kings charging in. In less than three minutes, they had smashed all 40 Bayonet Robots to pieces.

Upon entering Armory No. 10, Wang Yi found that the situation was similar to Armory No. 1. It was piled high with crates of supplies. There were fewer guns, but large quantities of flares, smoke grenades, and tear gas grenades. In the deepest part of the armory, there was also a Purple Treasure Chest.

Ji Liangren’s eyes lit up when he saw the guns and ammunition. ”It really is an armory! This is so exciting! Boss, could you bestow some Weapon Equipment upon me? All I need is a revolver, a shotgun, two submachine guns, fifty crates of universal ammo, a universal bullet launcher, ten crates of grenades, ten crates of flares, ten crates of smoke grenades, ten crates of tear gas grenades, plus two field daggers. That’s all!”

”Why don’t you just take all the supplies in this armory while you’re at it?”

”Oh no, I don’t need things like body armor! Besides, my Storage Waistband can’t hold that much. The things I just listed will fill my Waistband up perfectly!”

As he spoke, he pulled a Green Blind Box from his Storage Waistband.

”This thing is taking up space, so I’ll just open it!”

”Wait!” Wang Yi quickly stopped him. ”Give me that Blind Box. Go get the weapons and supplies yourself. Just grab some for now. We need to hurry and explore the other armories. You can properly arm yourself later when there’s time!”

”Adoptive Father, you are too generous! Please accept my bow!”

Overjoyed, Ji Liangren tossed aside the Green Blind Box and immediately went to gather guns and ammunition.

These firearms were much stronger than ordinary skills!

He would grab a bunch for himself. The next time he encountered an enemy, he could just suppress them with firepower. It would definitely be a blast.

Ji Liangren calculated silently to himself. ’Riding on a powerful person’s coattails really is the life,’ he thought. He was also incredibly curious about Wang Yi’s methods. Summoning nine Monkey Kings at once... he had no idea what kind of skill that was. It was truly Beyond Imagination.

Wang Yi, for his part, was delighted. ’Finally, another Blind Box!’

He picked up the Green Blind Box that Ji Liangren had left behind and, full of anticipation, went to open the Purple Treasure Chest. He obtained another [Material Exchange Certificate·Bayonet Robot], a Green Blind Box, a blue Blind Box, and a Purple Chaos Egg.

Ji Liangren came over to comment, ”The Purple Chaos Egg is decent, at least. A blue Blind Box? Trash. A Green Blind Box? Even bigger trash!”

Wang Yi ignored him, but he was secretly thrilled. He quickly put away the Green and blue Blind Boxes. ’These treasures must be enjoyed alone in a safe and quiet place!’

As for the Purple Chaos Egg, Wang Yi checked its properties. Surprisingly, it could also hatch a Maintenance Robot.

Wang Yi hatched it. A cylindrical, four-armed Maintenance Robot, identical in appearance to Jiba, appeared. Its name was Gundam, and it had the same skills as Jiba!

’A Maintenance Robot... not bad, I guess.’

Wang Yi then used the exchange certificate and redeemed another 10 Bayonet Robots.

A moment later, Ji Liangren found the third True Armory. Inside were large quantities of Rocket Cannons and universal shells, as well as a Purple Treasure Chest.

Wang Yi opened the Treasure Chest and obtained another [Material Exchange Certificate·Bayonet Robot] and a [Lord Skill Book: Eye of Insight].

[Lord Skill Book: Eye of Insight: Usable only by Lord Players, no class restriction. Upon use, grants the skill Eye of Insight. With this skill, a Lord Player can better ascertain information about characters, items, etc., through observation. It can bypass the effects of low-level concealment skills and items! This skill cannot be upgraded. Please explore its specific uses on your own.]

’This skill is pretty good!’

Wang Yi immediately used the [Lord Skill Book: Eye of Insight]. After acquiring the [Eye of Insight] skill, he discovered that he could now view Ji Liangren’s identity information even when he was transformed into a puppy.

Another half hour passed, and Ji Liangren found the fourth True Armory, which contained ten heavy machine guns and 100 crates of universal bullets, totaling one million rounds.

There was also a Purple Treasure Chest here. Wang Yi opened it and got a [Material Exchange Certificate·Bayonet Robot] and a Purple Chaos Egg.

”The Chaos Egg’s stats are terrible. Boss, your luck is really bad this time!”

Ji Liangren shook his head repeatedly upon seeing the items Wang Yi had gotten.

The properties of that Purple Chaos Egg were indeed far from ideal. It could hatch a City Defense Officer who was an armchair strategist, vain, eager for quick success, and arrogant!

’A City Defense Officer should be an official territory position, similar to a Governor or a Military Governor, right? What a pity. His personality profile is terrible!’

Wang Yi shook his head. He had now collected another trash Chaos Egg.

Another hour went by. Ji Liangren found the fifth and sixth True Armories. These two armories, numbered ”29” and ”30,” were right next to each other and jointly defended by 120 Bayonet Robots.

The nine Monkey Kings wiped out the Bayonet Robots. Wang Yi entered to explore. He wasn’t concerned with the guns, ammunition, or other supplies inside, so he went straight for the Treasure Chests. In total, he received two exchange certificates for Bayonet Robots, a Purple Blind Box, and an [Adventure Experience Book].

Wang Yi didn’t know what Li Mingli was doing at this moment, but there were only six True Armories in the entire A22 ruins, and all of them were now in his hands.

Ji Liangren deserved a good deal of the credit for this. Without him turning into a puppy to scout quickly, Wang Yi would have had to expend a lot of time and energy to find these six real warehouses, surely wasting a lot of effort.

Wang Yi wasn’t stingy. He rewarded Ji Liangren with the [Adventure Experience Book]. After using it, Ji Liangren’s Fighting Power shot straight up to the Sixth Rank!

”There’s still a secret weapon depot in these ruins. I’m counting on you to find it. The able do more work. Go on!”

Wang Yi sent Ji Liangren to continue exploring the ruins. He suspected the Sky Pointer was in that secret weapon depot.

Ji Liangren, for his part, enjoyed exploring. He turned into a puppy, wagged his tail, and trotted off with a ”WOOF WOOF.”

Meanwhile, Wang Yi stayed in Armory No. 30 and took out the one Purple Blind Box, one blue Blind Box, and two Green Blind Boxes he had accumulated.

”My Blind Box brothers, I respect you all as Blind Boxes. I offer you nine bows and hope you can help me soar to the heavens in a single step!”

As he spoke, Wang Yi cupped his hands and bowed. After finishing, however, he started by opening a Purple Blind Box first.

====

Ding! One Box, Many Openings Talent activated. The current Chaos Blind Box is being opened. Calculating 3 opening results for you.

Ding! Box Opening Enhancement Talent activated. Applying item enhancement.

One: Exquisite Pastries (Blue, Enhanced +1)

Two: Rat Poison (Blue, Enhanced +2)

Three: Realm-Breaking Pill (Purple, Enhanced +3)

====

”I choose the Realm-Breaking Pill! This has to be a powerful pill, right?”

After Wang Yi made his choice, a brilliant golden pill immediately appeared before him. A golden light flashed three times on the pill, and it grew to the size of a fist.

[Realm-Breaking Pill +3: Usable only by Adventurer Players. After consumption, can instantly raise one’s Realm by 4 to 8 minor stages!]

’Usable only by Adventurer Players... Whatever, it’s better than rat poison, I guess!’

Wang Yi put away the fist-sized golden Realm-Breaking Pill, bowed to the blue Blind Box, and then opened it.

Five options immediately appeared before him.

====

One: Ancient Silver Dragon Spear (Green, Enhanced +1)

Two: Recruitment Scroll (Green, Enhanced +2)

Three: Wild Eightfold Mirror (Blue, Enhanced +3)

Four: Cloud Patterned Black Stockings (Green, Enhanced +4)

Five: Steam Airship (Blue, Enhanced +5)

====

”I choose the Steam Airship!”

”Ding! The current space is too small. The Steam Airship has been automatically parked above the A22 ruins for you. Please be advised!”

Along with the system prompt, a Steam Airship about thirty meters long and shaped like a torpedo quickly appeared in the sky above the A22 ruins. It had a smokestack on top, huffing out white steam.

A golden light flashed over it five times in succession. Afterward, the airship’s appearance didn’t change much, but what came out of the smokestack was not white steam, but a strange gas that looked like a river of stars, dotted with specks of light.

”Ding! Your Steam Airship has been Enhanced +5 and has mutated into a Galaxy Airship!”

As Wang Yi heard the system prompt, the information panel for the Galaxy Airship automatically popped up in front of him.

====

Name: Galaxy Airship

Description: This might be a Cosmic Spaceship.

Function 1: [Steam Power] +3, enhanced into [Galaxy Power]. Automatically collects power from the Starry Sky, sufficient for the daily travel needs of a large Cosmic Spaceship.

Function 2: [Floating Flight] +2, enhanced into [Space Flight]. The Galaxy Airship’s flight altitude is greatly increased, and its internal facilities have been upgraded to match the conditions for Space Flight!

Note: This is a powerful airship modified by a mysterious power. Its crude exterior hides astonishing black-tech achievements.

====

’Not bad! It can go to space!’

Wang Yi was overjoyed. ’To fight Jiya in the sky, maybe I won’t need to borrow a Sky Ship after all!’
