"Huh? Results? The party's over already?"Wu Chi glanced down at the pig-trampled carnage at his feet, then looked over his shoulder in bewilderment.Over by the defense towers, the [Fart Tower] and the [Fireblast Tower] had, as usual, absolutely crushed it. One tactical fart and two fiery booms later, the enemies were a pile of ash. The level 5 elites couldn't do a single thing against them.On the other side, where Sister Lin had been, the monsters had died so fast and so neatly you'd think they were lining up for a school photo. It looked like she'd just sighed in their general direction and they all politely dropped dead. She was already standing not far from Wu Chi, looking pretty and poised, probably wondering what was taking him so [N O V E L I G H T] long.Clearly… he was the slowpoke of the group.The memory of his trusty sword snapping like a damn pretzel made Wu Chi's face burn with embarrassment."Thank the pig gods for my overpowered sows!"…[Battle Results]:Enemies: 42 Level 5 Elite Dark Hunters.Evaluation: SS-Rank.Base Reward: 42 Void Essence Stones.Bonus Reward: 250 Void Crystals, Territory Building [Arrow Tower], Territory Building [Arrow Tower], Equipment [Gauss Sniper Rifle], Territory Building [Forge].…The SS-rank rewards were nothing to sneeze at, but the one thing that really got on Wu Chi’s nerves was the crystal count.250…In Chinese internet slang, the number '250' (èr bǎi wǔ) is a common insult meaning 'idiot' or 'moron'. The system was basically calling him a dumbass.Still, who was he to complain about free cash?Wu Chi scooped up the stones and the "idiot crystals" and looked at the rest of the loot. Two more [Arrow Towers] and a [Forge], pretty standard stuff. But the one piece of equipment was straight out of a sci-fi movie!"Ooooh, a sniper rifle?" His eyes lit up. After a second of hesitation, he yoinked everything into his inventory. Then, it was time to collect his party favors. He ran around scooping up the loot pinatas, a grand total of 42 "Elite Dark Hunter Slaying Treasure Chests"!With 42 chests, something awesome was bound to drop! Giddy with excitement, he hurried back inside his flimsy fence. As he did, he saw Lin Daiyu watching him, a dazzling smile playing on her lips."What?" Wu Chi asked, patting his own face to check for dirt."You were quite the spectacle just now, young master." Lin Daiyu pursed her lips. Knowing he wasn't exactly a stickler for formalities, she decided to just let it rip. "Riding on that boar, smashing through the enemy horde…""…It was very impressive!"Hearing the stunning beauty's silky-smooth voice practically dripping with polite amusement, Wu Chi's face twitched. He nearly coughed up a lung. "That was, uh… an accident! A complete accident.""If I may be so bold," Lin Daiyu's expression turned serious, "The young master is a lord. It is enough for you to stand in the rear and give commands. The enemies will only grow stronger. I would give my life to protect you, of course, but I cannot be everywhere at once. If an accident were to happen…" A genuine flicker of worry crossed her beautiful eyes.Wu Chi got the message and nodded. "You're right. I'm just messing around for now. I'll play it safer later.""Mhm!" Lin Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest. The movement caused her robes to flutter, revealing a flash of flawless, pale skin.Wu Chi's brain short-circuited for a hot second before he guiltily wrenched his gaze away. "LET'S GO OPEN CHESTS!" he yelled, changing the subject with all the subtlety of a charging boar.…Back in the hut, Wu Chi laid out the chests and rubbed his hands together like a gacha addict about to blow his paycheck."Alright, it's time… to appease the gacha gods!"In one fell swoop, he opened them all.…"Obtained: Void Crystal x3!""Obtained: Void Crystal x1. A whole kilo of bread.""Obtained: Void Crystal x5.""Obtained: Void Crystal x8, Tempered Iron Spear.""Obtained: Void Crystal x1"…All 42 chests yielded 165 Void Crystals, 10 Void Essence Stones, a bunch of snacks and water, one pointy spear, and a territory building: [Wooden Wall]."Not half bad!" Wu Chi relaxed. His luck wasn't total garbage this time. Elite monsters really did drop the good stuff. Hot damn, a [Wooden Wall]! He could finally scrap that pathetic fence. Even better, it was a new building, which meant the [Mechanical Core] could work its magic on it.Beside him, Lin Daiyu sat with her chin in her hand, watching him with her bright, unblinking eyes. Seeing him grinning like an idiot made her smile, too. "Has something good happened, young master?" she asked softly."Haha, you bet! Luck was on my side. Pulled some decent items." Wu Chi nodded, taking out the [Gauss Sniper Rifle] first.…[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 with no scope. No scope? No problem!…"A Gauss weapon! Those things hit like a truck!" Wu Chi thought, admiring it. "Too bad in this cracked-out universe, with all its magic and cultivation bullshit, even the tech is insane. This was a superweapon back home, but here it's just a peashooter."He "played" with it for a moment—which mostly involved him awkwardly holding the futuristic-looking metal tube and squinting down the empty rail where a scope should be. After confirming that he had zero clue how to actually shoot it, he unceremoniously shoved it into his inventory and took out all his building models instead.
