Li Hanqiang came near to the Chaos’ Core with the Lucky Stone in his hands.
It was time to see how his luck was1.
He had no idea what ‘keeping the good ones at the bottom of the box1’ meant. If he had a good thing, he was just going to use it. He believed that with the help of the Lucky Stone this time around, the Emperor of Europe2 would definitely regain the throne.
“Come on, let’s erupt!”
Li Hanqian roared loudly while using the Lucky Stone. He then opened the treasure chest to receive his prize.
[System notification: You have used the Lucky Stone. The chances of getting rare items the next time you receive a city defense reward will be greatly improved.]
[System notification: Congratulations, you have successfully received the city defense reward. Your city defense reward is…the ‘Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain Construction Blueprints’. This has been evaluated as a rare item and has been automatically stored in your storage space. Congratulations to the player.]
‘Rare items, I really am the Emperor!’
Li Hanqiang rejoiced in his heart as he immediately opened the storage space to check.
—
Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain Construction Blueprints: Special item, bound to Li Hanqiang, the Chaotic City Lord.
Consumes 100 points of Chaotic Energy and can open up a space in the Chaotic City for the special building, the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain, to be built.
‘Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain’ has an initial size of ten miles and is considered a type of cave heaven. You can upgrade ‘Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain’ if you meet the hidden conditions.
The player can explore the specifics on their own.
—
‘A Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain with a ten-mile radius? What kind of building is this? It also requires Chaotic Energy to be built!’
Li Hanqiang patted his head. He really wanted to travel back in time at that moment and knock down his past self with a brick for deciding to choose a random Chaotic City Lord passive skill. How much better would it have been for him if he had chosen the Awakened Ability passive skill instead.
Of course, if Awakened Ability had been selected, there would be no more Change Tower and it was possible that he would not be able to keep it up until now, which would have been even sadder.
Looking at the Chaotic Energy in the Small Chaotic Bottle, Li Hanqiang had only 78 Chaotic Energy left inside. Under normal circumstances, if he wished to build the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain, it would take a total time of 22 hours.
Li Hanqiang felt tormented by this as his head was filled with thoughts of the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain.
Although there was a development team for Endless World, they were only responsible for providing gaming ideas and transmitting documents. All elements within the game were built by the Game Creator Endless, and all subsequent game operations were also independently controlled by them. Even if the development team wanted to carry out any gaming activities, they would first need to submit a proposal plan to the Game Creator Endless and could only be carried out after an agreement had been given.
The Game Creator Endless did not think in the same way as normal human beings. Who knew what kind of building the Cave Dwelling in Gremlin’s Mountain that was created by them would be like? The sentence that asked players to explore it themselves created an insatiable appetite within Li Hanqiang’s appetite, who was itching to know the results.
’22 hours! How can I endure this?’
Li Hanqiang sighed and laid out the two new Chaotic Stone Slabs. He then went to the Blue Ripple Pond and remained idle to fish.
Soon, two hours passed, where Li Hanqiang went offline several times and gave some attention to Gorgeous Banyue’s livestream. Feeling unbearably lonely, he decided to plan for the fifth wave of monster attacks.
He first sent a message to Fanning Knight. [City defense, city defense. Prepare to receive the mission at the Chaos Temple!]
It took Fanning Knight some time before he replied. [I am not free now, I am fighting against the Emperor’s Rich! Grandmother f*ckers, this group of people have eaten explosives and are killing my brothers everywhere!]
[Well… I’ll wait for a while before opening it then. Just give me a message after your battle.]
Li Hanqiang shook his head even though he felt that the Defensive Towers in his Chaotic City were more than enough to fight against the fifth wave of monster attacks without relying on the support of other adventurer players. As after all, the system notifications had stated that the fifth wave of monsters would only be at Level 12.
However, he was afraid of the appearance of random monsters or events. While it initially seemed like a good idea, it still brought on risks. If another Evil Wolf with Bull Horns appeared, there was a possibility that he would not get a perfect defense of the city.
Li Hanqiang suppressed his impulsiveness and decided to wait a while.
At that moment, in the field practice area of Tianfeng City, one of the cities of Endless World, Zhen Dejun held a magic wand and was blasting small fireballs at Fiery Blade Sage, who laid on the ground.
Everyone could see Fiery Blade Sage was wearing the Bright Green Turtle Shell, surrounded by dozens of people. However, he shouted with pride, “Come on, kill me. Kill me if you dare, hahaha!”
His attributes were on public display. He was at Level 15 and his HP was ridiculously high at 4700 points, while his physical defense was up to 135 and his magic resistance was also 130!
It was to be noted that even those with a level 15 Tank profession could only reach up to 1500 HP without any equipment. With the right equipment, a tank was considered good if its HP could reach 2500. Fiery Blade Sage was only a swordsman and had taken up a half Tank profession. This only increased his HP by 80 points with every level up, so it was sick that he actually had 4700 HP.
Moreover, with such high physical defense and magic resistance, he had the attribute data of a BOSS!
Zhen Dejun’s small fireball landed on Fiery Blade Sage and could only cause a pitiful amount of 3 points of damage.
“Is it possible that this guy is wearing Legendary Equipment!”
“I think that even if the turtle shell he is wearing was not a Legendary Equipment, it would at least be at the level of a Super Equipment!”
“He really is a blood cow1! However, it seems like he can’t move. Is that the limitation of the equipment…”
Various voices chattered in discussion around him.
“Pooh, those who don’t move are turtles!” Zhen Dejun’s expression was hard to look at as he shouted, “He’s really hard with the turtle shell! Everybody, let’s go together to kill this grandson and stay at his resurrection point. We will attack him until he returns to Level 0!”
The players around him immediately responded and started to attack Fiery Blade Sage. A large number of single-digit damage figures quickly emerged from the top of Fiery Blade Sage’s head. Some had even dealt a single point of damage on Fiery Blade Sage.
Fiery Blade Sage did not dare to move at all. He was also depressed as he had just become a potions dealer and was unable to sell any of the potion bottles that were on him. This was because he had suddenly been ambushed and could not run away. Luckily, the Bright Green Turtle Shell was very powerful and the 4700 HP was enough for this group of players from the Emperor’s Rich Guild to attack for some time.
“Ah!”
Suddenly a loud cry rang out. It seemed like Fanning Knight had jumped out from behind a big stone. He was holding a large sword and his body suddenly turned blurry. It was then that a ‘shadow avatar’ suddenly rushed out from him and knocked Zhen Dejun until he flew out.
“-10”
The damage figure appeared from Zhen Dejun’s head!
The four or five players next to Zhen Dejun were caught off guard and were also affected by the ‘shadow avatar’. Staggering, they all fell back and lost 10 HP.
“Surprise attack!”
“What skill was that!”
“How dare you show yourself, let’s hit this one without a turtle shell first…”
The players of the Emperor’s Guild reacted as dozens of people rushed forward to attack Fanning Knight.
The fan knight braved the attack for five seconds before he died.
On the other side, Fiery Blade Sage tried to use the opportunity to escape. However, just as he moved two steps, Zhen Dejun’s small fireballs hit again, forcing him to lie still on the ground again.
Not far away, a player on horseback was looking at the scene with a grin. His appearance was similar to Zhen Dejun but he was taller. This was the president of the Emperor’s Rich Guild, Zhen Deqiang.
There was also a robber player next to Zhen Deqiang. This person had a pair of triangular eyes, a short bow hanging from his waist, and a dog helmet on his head. He chuckled and said, “Hmph, this Enjoy the Bustling Scene Guild is a garbage group!”
Zhen Deqiang had the looks of a gangster. He shook his head and said, “I really don’t know where their courage came from. How dare they provoke me! Me, Zhen Deqiang, who has such a worthy reputation? Get them first and then get that Li Hanqiang!”
He glanced at the triangle-eyed players around him and said, “Deity Robber, I’ll hand this problem for you to handle. If you want money, I’ll provide you money; if you want people, I’ll provide you people! When it comes to playing games, I just want to dominate. I just want someone to be upset. If others are upset, I will be happy!”
The triangle-eyed player agreed. “President, rest assured! The Enjoy the Bustling Scene Guild is not worth any attention. As for how to handle the Chaotic City Lord? I have three ideas!”
