Chapter 20 - Gauss Rifle and Wooden Wall!
Chapter 20: Gauss Rifle and Wooden Wall!
“Settlement? All the monsters are dead?”
Wu Chi glanced at the corpses beneath his feet, surprised. He turned to check the other two directions.
Over by the defense towers,
the [Stink Bomb Tower] and [Fireball Tower] performed reliably as ever.
One stink bomb combined with two fireballs was enough to obliterate the enemies effortlessly.
Even the Level 5 elite monsters
seemed utterly powerless against these two defense towers!
On the other side,
under Lin Meimei’s command, the elite monsters fell quickly, lying neatly in a row.
It seemed they had been wiped out in a single wave.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
At that moment,
Lin Daiyu stood not far from Wu Chi, daintily watching him, clearly keeping an eye on his safety.
Obviously…
he was the slowest here!
Thinking about how his longsword had just snapped so easily, Wu Chi couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
“Luckily, the old sow came through!”
[Battle Settlement]:
-
- Enemies: 42 Level 5 Elite Dark Hunters.
-
- Rating: SS.
-
- Base Rewards: 42 Void Source Stones.
-
- Bonus Rewards: 250 Void Crystals, Territory Building [Arrow Tower], Territory Building [Arrow Tower], Equipment [Gauss Sniper Rifle], Territory Building [Forge Workshop].
The SS-tier settlement rewards were naturally bountiful.
The only thing that irked Wu Chi was the number of Void Crystals.
Two hundred and fifty…
what an unlucky number!
But who would complain about having too much money?
Wu Chi stashed away the Void Source Stones and Void Crystals, then looked at the other rewards.
Three territory buildings,
two [Arrow Towers] and one [Forge Workshop], were relatively common.
But the only piece of equipment turned out to be from the tech side!
“A sniper rifle?”
Wu Chi’s eyes lit up. After some hesitation, he put everything away.
Then,
he began looting boxes,
collecting all 42 [Elite Dark Hunter Reward Boxes] scattered in three directions!
Forty-two boxes should yield some great rewards.
Wu Chi was thrilled and eagerly headed back inside the fence.
As he arrived,
he saw Lin Daiyu watching him with a bright smile.
“What is it?”
Wu Chi touched his face self-consciously.
“You were quite entertaining just now, Gongzi.”
Lin Daiyu pursed her lips. Thinking of Wu Chi’s carefree nature, she decided to speak freely.
“Riding a wild boar, charging recklessly through the enemy horde…”
“You looked so heroic!”
Hearing the soft, teasing tone from the beautiful woman,
Wu Chi’s face twitched. Feeling awkward, he said, “It was… an accident, just an accident.”
“This servant will say one thing: as a lord, Gongzi should command from the rear. That is enough.”
Lin Daiyu’s expression grew serious as she continued,
“Gongzi is currently in the novice trial, where monsters invade daily, growing stronger with each passing day.
“Under normal circumstances, this servant would protect Gongzi even at the cost of my life. But my abilities are limited. If anything unexpected happens…”
Her bright eyes blinked, revealing a trace of worry.
Hearing this,
Wu Chi nodded in understanding and replied,
“You’re right. I’ll just mess around for a few days. I’ll be more cautious later.”
“Good!”
Lin Daiyu sighed in relief, patting her chest.
Her clothes billowed in the breeze, revealing a glimpse of fair skin.
Wu Chi couldn’t help but glance at it before guiltily averting his gaze.
“Let’s go open the boxes!” he said hurriedly.
Inside the small cabin,
Wu Chi placed the boxes down one by one, rubbing his hands together eagerly.
“Now, it’s time to witness a miracle!”
In one go,
he opened them all!
Rewards:
-
- Void Crystal x3.
-
- Void Crystal x1. Bread 1000g.
-
- Void Crystal x5.
-
- Void Crystal x8, Refined Iron Spear.
-
- Void Crystal x1.
After opening all 42 boxes, he ended up with:
-
- 165 Void Crystals,
-
- 10 Void Source Stones,
-
- Bread, water, and other supplies,
-
- A Refined Iron Spear,
-
- And a territory building [Wooden Wall].
“Not bad!”
Wu Chi felt satisfied. This time, his luck had been pretty decent.
Elite monsters indeed provided more generous rewards!
The [Wooden Wall], in particular, was a great find. He could finally dismantle the “fence.”
Moreover, the [Wooden Wall] was a new building that could be upgraded by the [Mechanical Kidney]!
Beside him,
Lin Daiyu rested her chin on her hand, her bright eyes fixed on Wu Chi.
Seeing him smile, Lin Meimei couldn’t help but beam happily as she softly asked,
“Did Gongzi get something good?”
“Haha, not bad! My luck wasn’t too shabby. I got some nice items.”
Wu Chi nodded and first took out the [Gauss Sniper Rifle].
[Gauss Sniper Rifle]
-
- Type: Equipment.
-
- Level: 5.
-
- Quality: White.
-
- Attribute: Spirit +3.
-
- Ammunition: 9mm sniper rounds.
-
- Attack Range: 0~2000 meters.
-
- Description: A sniper rifle without a scope. Not bad!
“Gauss weapons still pack a punch!”
“But in this era, whether it’s magic or cultivation… even on the tech side, black technology abounds. In the previous world, Gauss weapons were deadly. Now, they’re just ordinary gear.”
Wu Chi toyed with the rifle briefly, confirmed he couldn’t shoot, and stashed it in his inventory.
Then,
he brought out all the building models!
