Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 510: Chapter 344: Ecological Natural Enemy (2)

”Ding! With the Ecological Nemesis attribute, once Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors enter a war, they will rapidly mutate to adapt to the local ecology, biological traits, and weapon characteristics. They will become a natural nemesis, comprehensively suppressing enemy organisms or neutralizing local weapons!”

”Ding! Note: The Ecological Nemesis attribute will not increase the original level of the Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors. The speed and final effect of their mutation are related to the territory’s ecological foundation. The stronger the territory’s ecology, the more pronounced the effect of the Ecological Nemesis. If the territory’s ecology is too weak, the effect may not activate or may fail. Please explore the specifics on your own.”

With a mere thought, Wang Yi’s consciousness descended into his Divine Body, Wang Pingyi. Wang Pingyi teleported to the Eco Battlefield to observe the Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors.

They already possessed the Ecological Nemesis attribute, but there was no change in their appearance.

’They undergo targeted mutation after entering a war... this Ecological Nemesis attribute is quite good. They’re born and raised by nature, created naturally. Under the effect of the Thick Earth Divine Techniques, they can be spawned quickly, level up quickly, and rapidly gain combat power. With this Ecological Nemesis attribute on top of all that, the Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors are about to take off...’

Wang Yi had a hunch. Never mind the Eastern Depot’s Martial Gods or the Western Factory Brocade Guard; in the future, the true main fighting force of his territory would likely be the Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors.

At Wang Yi’s Will, Wang Pingyi selected two hundred high-level Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors, formed them into a special combat squad, and sent them into the Void Rift—that is, into the Waga World.

’I’ll let them mutate naturally and check the specific effects after some time. These 200 Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors shouldn’t get completely wiped out, right...?’

Wang Yi mused silently. ’The people of Waga World are really unlucky,’ he thought. ’Their production grounds will be devoured by Star-devouring Grass, and they’ll also be hunted by Ecological Nemeses. I wonder what will become of them.’

A moment later, Wang Yi’s consciousness returned. The auction continued. He occasionally placed a bid, but he didn’t encounter anything he particularly coveted.

Over the next day, Wang Yi won three decent cosmetic outfits and two Storage Items. His energy was boundless, so he didn’t feel tired, but Li Longyu and the others were starting to find it unbearable.

For them, the novelty of the auction had worn off, and now they just felt bored. Although the competition for the auction items was growing fiercer, they were merely outsiders.

Before they knew it, the 1,025th auction item was presented.

This item was also provided by Wang Yi: [Mobile Storm: Snot-slug +7].

This motorized vehicle was only of Green quality. After being Enhanced to +7, its performance became quite powerful, and it could even fly through the Starry Sky. However, its appearance was exceedingly ugly, and it had no other particularly outstanding features. Wang Yi felt it wasn’t worth keeping, so he had put it up for auction.

”Mobile Storm?”

”Mobile Storm is a series. I wonder which faction produces them!”

”This Snot-slug is pretty cool. I actually think it looks kind of cute!”

”This thing can be ridden in the Starry Sky! My class is Cosmic Knight, so I have to get it!”

”Hey, this thing is nice. It’s just my style. I’m bidding!”

”An Enhanced +7 Mobile Storm? Interesting.”

”This Snot-slug even has a weapon system! I’m going to win it!”

”The Mobile Storm series has this model? Interesting. I must have it!”

To Wang Yi’s surprise, this Green-quality Mobile Storm was extremely popular. The bidding was fierce, and it ultimately sold for the high price of 880,000 Star Yuan.

When a staff member delivered the Star Yuan he had earned, Wang Yi felt a sense of satisfaction. ’If those competing bidders knew this Mobile Storm came from a single Green Blind Box,’ he thought, ’I wonder how they’d feel.’

At this thought, Wang Yi took out a large number of blind boxes.

Those blind boxes were all system compensation. Most were white, a small portion were green, and there were also blue, purple, and even Gold ones, though they were rare.

These blind boxes were, of course, compensation given to Wang Yi according to the system’s protocol, as death benefits.

His three Bonsai Worlds provided a population of one hundred billion, developing at a rate of a thousand years per day. A large number of people died every day, so Wang Yi had far more death benefits than he could ever use.

He had some free time now, so he soon started opening blind boxes while keeping an eye on the auction, treating it as a casual pastime.

「Two more days passed in the blink of an eye.」 The auction had entered its later stages, the quality of the items presented had increased, and the pace of bidding had noticeably slowed.

Wang Yi’s fourth contribution appeared as the 2,000th auction item. It was a Seven-Color Quality Chaos Egg, Enhanced +5, that could hatch a Grand General who was ruthless and decisive in slaughter, but also untamable and naturally rebellious.

After five Enhancements, this Grand General would be level 320 upon hatching and would come with a Seven-Colored Divine Artifact weapon. It would grow rapidly, possess powerful skills, and also be a Military Governor with the authority to manage the territory’s troops. It could fight alone or lead an army.

When it came to hatched units, Wang Yi always prioritized quality over quantity. No matter how good the unit’s potential was, if its character was flawed, he would resolutely reject it, lest he live to regret it.

Even an Enhanced +5 Seven-Colored Chaos Egg like this wasn’t something Wang Yi particularly cared for. He figured it was perfect for auctioning off.

The moment this Chaos Egg appeared, it ignited the entire venue. The auction reached an unprecedented level of intensity, with competition becoming extremely fierce.

For the average Chaos Lord, a Grand General and Military Governor who was level 320 right after hatching could immediately become a high-end combatant for their territory. Its advantages clearly outweighed its disadvantages, making it an obviously worthwhile acquisition.

Moreover, some Chaos Lords possessed Lord Talents related to Chaos Eggs. For them, a Seven-Color Quality Chaos Egg that had been Enhanced five times was even more valuable.

The bidding price for this Chaos Egg continued to climb, with the final sale price reaching 5.2 million Star Yuan—the highest price for any item that had appeared so far!

”5.2 million... so many rich people.”

Wang Yi muttered aloud. Just then, he had also finished upgrading a Luck Blind Box to Seven-Colored. After opening it, five options appeared in the selection window.

====

One: Construction Drawings for a Miracle Building (Seven-Colored, Enhance +1)

Two: Construction Drawings for a Mysterious Phone Booth (Seven-Colored, Enhance +2)

Three: Construction Drawings for a Divine Demon Scenic Area (Seven-Colored, Enhance +3)

Four: Construction Drawings for a Cosmic Zoo (Seven-Colored, Enhance +4)

Five: Construction Drawings for a Miracle Building (Seven-Colored, Enhance +5)

====

This Luck Blind Box was a ”Blueprint Special.” All five options were Construction Drawings. Since the first and fifth options were the same, Wang Yi naturally chose the one with more Enhancements.

With the blueprint in hand, he could now view its description. According to the information, using the [Construction Drawings for a Miracle Building] would allow him to build a Miracle Building in his territory. This Miracle Building would be a natural wonder that matched his territory’s type. Since Wang Yi’s was an Eco Royal Court, using this blueprint would create an ecological miracle.

’A Miracle Building... I wonder what it will turn out to be. Let’s see what it does!’

With this in mind, Wang Yi sent the [Construction Drawings for a Miracle Building] directly to his Chaos Warehouse. He then retrieved it, carried it to an open area, and used it.

Instantly, a great earthquake shook the land. A round seed the size of a soccer ball appeared, suspended in mid-air. It immediately began to grow, sprouting roots and branches, and expanding rapidly before his very eyes.

At the same time, Wang Yi received a system notification: ”Ding! Congratulations on constructing the ecological miracle, the Great Wind and Cloud Vine. The Great Wind and Cloud Vine is a large-scale ecological aggregate that grows in mid-air. It uses clouds as leaves and mist as tendrils, with a projected area spanning a three-hundred-kilometer radius. It is accompanied by Wind and Cloud Butterflies and can generate wind, rain, snow, and lightning. It possesses a powerful Self-Repair ability, can induce mirages, record or play optical images, and create various optical phenomena. It can also be used as a weapon of war for external combat. Please explore the specifics on your own.”

”Ding! The ecological miracle, the Great Wind and Cloud Vine, can be bound to the Eco-Elite Spirit Rhinoceros Warriors, serving as their habitat and transport vessel. Please explore the specifics on your own.”

”Ding! The ecological miracle, the Great Wind and Cloud Vine, forms its own ecosystem and can be bound to the ecological weapon, Star-devouring Grass. It can drop Star-devouring Grass seeds. Please explore the specifics on your own.”

Wang Yi nodded repeatedly. ’This ecological miracle isn’t bad at all,’ he thought. ’It covers a three-hundred-kilometer radius, can house Eco-Elites, and can even carry ecological weapons. It’s truly excellent.’
