Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 328: Chapter 256: Celestial Eagle Warrior, the 5th Wave of Void Invasion (2)

He was quite moved.

’My territory can already run stably without my direct management,’ he thought. ’It can even easily fend off Player invasions and profit from them.’

’This is great. I can explore the outside world or enter secluded Cultivation with greater peace of mind. The territory’s prosperity still depends on me opening those Chaos Blind Boxes.’

At the same time, Wang Yi was also quite pleased.

He spoke with Jelena for a long time and finalized the plans for the second large-scale expedition into the World of Suffering.

In Wang Yi’s view, any resident with growth potential could join the expedition to the World of Suffering. After all, one day on the outside was a year inside; leaving the territory for ten days meant gaining ten years’ worth of Cultivation.

Of course, the decision to go would depend on each resident’s personal circumstances and willingness. Wang Yi wouldn’t force anyone.

”The second trip is officially on the agenda. We should stock up on more Fasting Pills in the coming days...”

Wang Yi instructed Jelena, ”Don’t slack on the territory’s development! Jelena, I’m leaving the construction of Eggshell City and the many other territorial affairs to you. I have to continue the migration efforts on Yamero Star. I hope you’ll have the final list of travelers ready by the time I return!”

”Rest assured, Father. I will not slack off. I definitely won’t disappoint you!”

”That’s my girl!”

Wang Yi nodded, then left the Eco-Castle, satisfied. He had also received three Green Blind Boxes and one blue blind box from Jelena.

These four blind boxes had been dropped by Players from the Western Continent. Jelena had made a point to collect them and hand them to Wang Yi personally.

A moment later, Wang Yi drove the Bronze Horse Carriage to inspect the territory. He opened the four blind boxes right there in the carriage.

From the first Green Blind Box, Wang Yi got five options and ultimately chose [Flashlight+4].

This +4 Enhanced Flashlight was a ”super-bright flashlight” that could emit a powerful beam. It could be used as a searchlight—and was even stronger than a typical one—but it consumed a lot of power.

Wang Yi happened to run into Wadu patrolling the territory, so he gave him the +4 Enhanced Flashlight to play with.

From the second Green Blind Box, Wang Yi got six options and chose [Fragrant Shower Gel+6]. What was originally one case became 32 cases after enhancement!

The third Green Blind Box only gave three options.

====

1: Dog Skin Ointment (Green, Enhance+1)

2: Shoe Lifts (Green, Enhance+2)

3: High-End Baby Stroller (Green, Enhance+3)

====

’These three options... I guess I’ll take the high-end baby stroller!’

After Wang Yi made his choice, a row of eight baby strollers appeared before him.

These eight baby strollers were identical and had a high-end design.

’What’s the use of so many baby strollers? It would’ve been better to just super-enhance one of them instead...’

Wang Yi shook his head, stored the eight baby strollers in his Bronze Bracelet, and then opened the final blue blind box. Unexpectedly, it also only had three options.

====

1: Old Overlord Learning Machine (Blue, Enhance+1)

2: Golden Spear Unyielding Pill (Blue, Enhance+2)

3: Bedtime Storybook (Blue, Enhance+3)

====

”My luck is a little off... I’ll choose option two!”

After Wang Yi made his choice, a small, square box appeared before him. He opened it and saw a Pill inside that radiated a golden light.

[Golden Spear Unyielding Pill+2: Blue Quality. Long-lasting and firm, grows more vigorous with battle. Enhanced mysterious effect!]

’Well, I got it from a blind box, after all. I’ll keep it...’

Wang Yi muttered to himself, thinking he was unlucky. The haul from these four blind boxes was pretty lame.

After stowing the Pill, Wang Yi checked his Luck Blind Box. He realized that with just one more infusion of luck, its quality would advance to Five-Colored.

’This Luck Blind Box’s quality is upgrading pretty quickly. It might not take long to get it to Seven-Color Quality. I wonder what kind of items a Seven-Color Blind Box can produce.’

Wang Yi had high expectations for the Luck Blind Box, as it would grant a Mysterious Ability once it reached Seven-Color Quality.

The Bronze Horse Carriage moved along slowly. The chance of it breaking down had been greatly reduced, and it now had a rather imposing presence as it traveled down the highway, drawing many stares.

After spending a few hours inspecting his territory, Wang Yi took out his Star Compass and made a trip to the territory of the Ancient Barbarian Country. An hour later, he found Li Longyu.

Li Longyu was piloting the Bronze Ship, just about to go Guiding some Refugees.

Wang Yi entered the cockpit of the Bronze Ship and said, ”Yu’Er, I’ve got a treasure here. Come and study it with me!”

Li Longyu asked curiously, ”What treasure?”

”A Dual Cultivation Elixir!”

The next morning, Li Longyu was fast asleep.

Wang Yi, however, still felt full of energy.

’This Pill really is powerful,’ he mused. ’But lasting for too long isn’t necessarily a good thing!’

Wang Yi muttered to himself. He got up, straightened his clothes, and was about to do a few sets of calisthenics when he suddenly received a system notification: ”Ding! You are the first to complete a reproduction task with the special story character Li Longyu. Li Longyu’s Extraordinary Fertility has been activated, and she has obtained one Divine Blessing!”

”Ding! By consuming the special story character Li Longyu’s one Divine Blessing, you may choose one of the following three options...”

”Option One: Gain +333,333 Lord Experience!”

”Option Two: Obtain one Red Light Quality Chaos Blind Box!”

”Option Three: Obtain one Red Light Quality Chaos Egg!”

”Hm?”

Wang Yi was stunned.

’Completed a reproduction task?’

’What does that mean?’

’Is Li Longyu pregnant?’

’Am I going to have my own child?’

Wang Yi was a little surprised and a little panicked. He was also very curious what kind of offspring Li Longyu, with her Extraordinary Fertility ability, would bear for him.

’I’ll have to take good care of Yu’Er from now on. I’ll put her story quests on hold and have her rest up back at Huaguo Mountain... Now that I’ll have a family to support, I can’t afford to slack off. I need to become even stronger.’

Wang Yi thought to himself. His choice, of course, was the Red Light Blind Box, but he wasn’t in a hurry to open it.

When Li Longyu woke up, Wang Yi took her back to Huaguo Mountain. After getting her settled in comfortably, Wang Yi didn’t stay idle and resumed the ”interstellar immigration.”

A day later, Wang Yi had relocated nearly 30,000 Refugees to the second Shanhai Pass City on Yamero Star.

After getting these Refugees settled, Wang Yi continued his explorations on Yamero Star.

Afterward, Wang Yi enjoyed the most peaceful period since his arrival in the Typhon World. His territory developed steadily, construction on Eggshell City continued, the number of residents grew, and the settlement of Refugees became more efficient. With no one causing trouble, everything was progressing smoothly.

As the Lord, Wang Yi was nevertheless stationed on Yamero Star, spending his days repairing cars, doing his exercises, and exploring, all while continuously accumulating Chaos Energy...

Before he knew it, Eggshell City was mostly complete, and tall walls had been erected on all four sides of the territory.

On this day, a banquet was held in the First Dining Hall. Everyone ate and drank to their hearts’ content, celebrating the completion of the four walls.

Wang Yi had just returned from Yamero Star and came to participate. He had just taken his seat when he suddenly received a system notification: ”Ding! Attention, Player! The fifth wave of the void invasion will begin in 12 hours. Evil forces from the Chaotic Void are massing their troops. Please prepare your defenses!”

”Ding! Alert: The fifth wave of the void invasion is of high intensity. You and your territory’s Heart of Chaos have the highest threat level and will be prioritized by low-level invaders...”

”Ding! Alert: If you are killed in action or the Heart of Chaos is destroyed, you will lose your status as Lord. Your territory will become unclaimed land, all of its functional buildings and facilities will cease to operate, and your subordinates will either selectively forget your existence or die for you. Please be sure to handle this with care.”

”Ding! Alert: Void Rifts will appear at random locations outside your territory. The number is not fixed; there may be one or several. The invasion will last for at least 6 hours, with the specific duration determined randomly. When the invasion time is up, the invading forces will retreat, and the Void Rifts will then close.”

”Ding! Alert: Danger and opportunity coexist. Killing invaders offers a chance to obtain loot...”

Wang Yi’s spirits lifted.

The fifth void invasion was finally about to begin.

But things were different now. Wang Yi now had Huaguo Mountain and Eggshell City. His territory was teeming with residents and packed with experts; his forces were strong and his soldiers were ready.

He had been looking forward to the fifth void invasion for a long time!

Eggshell City immediately entered a state of high alert. Troops from all quarters were recalled, militia were stationed on the walls, and civilians were ordered to take shelter...

Twelve hours passed quickly. At that moment, in the four cardinal directions around Eggshell City—east, south, west, and north—Void Rifts suddenly tore open, like the giant maws of monsters.

”Ding! Regional Announcement: The fifth void invasion has begun! The Void Legion is about to launch an attack on the Huaguo Mountain Territory. The enemy forces consist of 5,000 shield-bearing infantry, 3,000 heavy cavalry, 1,000 Dragon Eagle Knights, 500 Griffin Knights, 500 Steam Tanks, 1,000 Medical Priests, and 1,000 Support Witches. Four heroes will also be deployed. The Void Legion will invade from all four directions simultaneously. The invasion will last for 8 hours. Please prepare your defenses!”
