You could pretty much tell what was on Lin Daiyu’s mind. The girl was hoping for a sister-in-arms, probably missing her old pals from the Jia mansion. Can’t blame her — being the only one around must get lonely.But, let’s be real... My first summon netted me a legendary, gold-tier hero. That’s like winning the lottery on your first scratch-off. So naturally, I was kinda itching to see what happens the second time around. Thanks to Lin Daiyu’s epic performance, my expectations were sky-high.“Young master, this servant merely…” Lin Daiyu saw me deep in thought and started to panic, thinking she’d overstepped.“Please, proceed with your original plans. Do not mind my foolish whims.”“Relax, it’s cool,” I waved a hand, chuckling.“Let’s go pick up our loot first.”I looked outside. The battlefield was a proper mess — blood-soaked, littered with mangled limbs and chunks of monster meat. It was a goddamn butcher’s shop. And dotted all over were glowing points of light, condensing into reward chests. Loot boxes, baby!“As you wish!” Lin Daiyu relaxed, following me as we went to collect the chests.618 monsters slain. 618 chests to pick up. My back was fucking killing me by the end! I was practically dead on my feet, and in the end, I had to rely on Sister Lin to help me haul all the booty back.But I didn’t open them right away. Why? Because the [Red Chamber] building had a special buff called [Twelve Beauties of Jinling]. Forget the stats for a moment — that +1 Luck bonus actually affects the loot you get from opening chests! Sure, +1 Luck isn’t much, but it’s something. Why be impatient and waste a potential bonus? It’s just a few minutes.Back in the territory, I had the Peppa squads gather near their sheds and gave them food and water. Then, finally, I headed to the [Red Chamber] with Lin Daiyu.“Upgrade!”[Red Chamber] — Level: 1 → 2!New heroes can now be summoned!Hero level cap unlocked to Level 2!200 Void Essence Stones later, the building looked exactly the same. Well, that was anticlimactic. Wu Chi swaggered in alone, slammed 10 Void Crystals onto the summoning table, and hit the big, glowing [Summon] button. The ink-wash scroll reappeared, flashing like a Vegas slot machine. Bronze! Bronze! Silver! Bronze! His heart hammered in his chest.“Getting a legendary hero right off the bat... I must’ve used up a decade’s worth of luck.”“Of course, my cheat ability probably had something to do with it. With a normal altar, no matter how lucky I am, a legendary hero would be a pipe dream.”I focused my mind and selected [Summon]!Poof! The 10 Void Crystals vanished. That familiar ink-wash painting scroll appeared again, flashing like a slot ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) machine on steroids! Silhouettes of figures flickered past — gold borders... silver borders... bronze borders... they all zipped by. My heart was pounding. This gacha shit is seriously addictive... and stressful as hell.Soon, the light settled... on a bronze border.Notification: Obtained one “Jade Belt & Silken Robe” outfit.Wu Chi: “...”Well, looks like I didn’t hit the jackpot this time. No one materialized in the chair opposite me.“Are you fucking kidding me?” I muttered. “It’s really like a damn gacha game?”“Normal altars don’t pull this crap!”I was seriously annoyed. I looked at the table. A new set of clothing had appeared there — an emerald-green belt and a delicate, sheer silk dress. A very exquisite women’s outfit.“It’s a pretty dress... but I’m not exactly in the market for cross-dressing, thank you very much!”My face darkened. I tossed in more Void Crystals!-10! -10! -10! -10!...After ten consecutive attempts... I was feeling seriously butt-hurt. The ink-wash scroll kept appearing, but I never saw that glorious gold border again. I did get one silver border, but everything else was fucking bronze. No doubt about it — that initial luck was just a fluke.The silver border reward wasn’t bad — a piece of Epic-grade equipment.[Heavenly Silk Gloves]Type: EquipmentQuality: Purple (Epic)Level: 10Attributes: Constitution +20, Spirit +5Special Effect: Stainless (Repels dirt, self-cleaning)Requirement: Constitution 50Description: A pair of elegant white silk gloves. Looks great, but good luck wearing them if you’re a weakling.These gloves could go to Lin Daiyu, giving her stats another nice boost. As for the other bronze-border rewards... they were absolute trash. Seven more sets of women’s clothing. A box of rouge. A gold-inlaid jade hairpin. They were beautiful, sure. But what the hell am I supposed to do with “beautiful”? I’M HERE TO SUMMON WAIFUS, NOT START A BOUTIQUE!My face was practically black with frustration. Screw saving money. Time for the Premium Summon.Void Crystals -100!Notification: Obtained item [Bewitching Mist].Again! Void Crystals -100!The ink-wash scroll appeared once more, light swirling, hazy clouds materializing and spinning around the room.Suddenly... a figure appeared in the chair opposite me. Dressed in vibrant red wedding robes, adorned with a phoenix crown and radiant attire... A heart-meltingly delicate face, her small mouth slightly agape... And a pair of utterly captivating eyes, filled with sheer astonishment!Notification: Obtained Hero — [Qin Keqing]!
