Wasteland's Only King-Chapter 120 - 108: Oh~ The Invincible New City Lord!
The towering mountain range divides the A308 Area right down the middle.
To the south lies the region where Dawn City is located, with over fifty Refuge Cities.
To the north is the area where Xiaoming made friends, also with fifty plus Refuge Cities.
At this moment.
Yu Jin sat atop the head of the Mutated Giant Turtle, gazing into the distance.
At the edge of his vision, he could just make out the faint silhouette of a Refuge City.
"Level 4 Sanctuary City?"
Yu Jin was a little surprised. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
He’d originally planned to let Xiaoming take him to find a few more "friends."
Because, although this time’s crystal haul was big, there was only one Tier Eleven Crystal; it made Yu Jin feel insecure.
He came out this time intending to fleece enough Crystal Resources in one go to break through to Tier Eleven.
"Xiaoming, let’s go check over there."
Yu Jin patted the turtle on the head, pointing toward the Refuge City’s direction.
"Wuu——"
Xiaoming whimpered, changing direction.
At the same time.
Its four limbs moved even faster.
Despite this being Wasteland terrain, its limbs actually left afterimages, the dust it kicked up forming a mini sandstorm along the way.
"Haha, good turtle!"
Yu Jin praised lightly, looking at the gradually approaching silhouette of the Refuge City, a sense of curiosity rising in his heart.
Come to think of it.
So far, this was the first upgraded Refuge City he had seen aside from Dawn City.
"Level 4 Sanctuary City—besides needing at least 50 subordinate cities,"
"You also need 20,000 Evolvers, including at least 3 Tier Six Evolvers."
Yu Jin muttered, tallying the requirements for a Level 4 Sanctuary City.
"So..."
"The City Lord should at least be a Tier Seven Evolver, maybe even Tier Eight?"
At that thought.
Yu Jin couldn’t help but get excited.
Since transmigrating, he’d already smashed loads of Tier Seven and Tier Eight Mutant Beast Infected Bodies.
But Tier Seven and Tier Eight Evolvers...
Except for Naiya, he hadn’t met another one yet.
"I’ve got the Tier and Value, just lack battle experience."
"Just as well—before the Alien Invader shows up, time to find a Tier Seven or Eight City Lord to spar with, exchange a few pointers!"
"Well, hopefully it’s someone easy to talk to..."
Yu Jin grumbled to himself.
"No, wait."
Yu Jin shook his head again.
"Hopefully it’s someone not easy to talk to."
"That way, I can beat him up fair and square."
"Taking over a Level 4 Sanctuary City all by myself—maybe Brother Tongzi will let me fleece a big one?"
Thinking that, Yu Jin was full of anticipation.
"Xiaoming, charge!"
...
...
Daluo City.
Inside the City Lord’s Mansion, which resembled a miniature palace.
Daluo City’s City Lord, Tier Seven Evolver, Jon Shaw, sat at the City Lord’s seat.
His face was stern, gazing into the distance.
Outside of Daluo City, sandstorms raged.
That was the commotion from the Tier Seven Giant Turtle.
"An uninvited guest, huh?"
Jon narrowed his eyes.
In his eyes, runes seemed to swirl.
"Hmm?"
Jon let out a surprised grunt.
He couldn’t see through the strength of the man sitting on the giant turtle’s head!
"Attribute Ability that blocks detection?"
Jon was surprised, but only a little.
He got up leisurely from the City Lord’s seat, which was inscribed with countless runes.
"Lord City Lord—"
"Should we rally the legion guard?"
Next to Jon, a middle-aged man radiating the aura of a Tier Six Evolver respectfully inquired.
"No need."
Jon waved his hand.
He strode out of the City Lord’s Mansion.
"Ever since Daluo City was promoted to Level 4, it’s been far too long since I’ve stretched my muscles."
Jon twisted his neck, a flash of battle intent in his eyes.
He had transmigrated to the Wasteland World for a full ten years.
In ten years, dual attributes, Tier Seven Evolver!
In ten years, Level 4 Sanctuary City!
In ten years, battle after battle, never a defeat!
Now, all fifty-one Refuge Cities in the northern part of the A308 Area were under his dominion!
He felt unspeakable pride in his achievements.
Even...
He was confident that in fifty years, at the next promotion round, he could break into the top ten of the A3 Planet leaderboard!
BOOM—!
Jon stomped the ground, shooting up into the sky.
Facing the imposing Giant Turtle and Yu Jin, this Daluo City Lord wasn’t intent on using home advantage, but instead took the initiative to leave the city and meet the enemy head-on!
Such a scene.
Roused nearly a million subordinates within Daluo City to loud cheers!
"OHHH——"
"Invincible Lord City Lord!"
Unlike Dawn City’s "loyalty" slogan,
Daluo City’s cheer for the past decade had always been this one.
To these subordinates, their Lord City Lord was simply invincible!
Ten years undefeated!
...
...
"Ahleh?"
"So bold?"
Atop the turtle’s head, Yu Jin stared dumbfounded at the figure rushing over from the distance.
"Getting fired up?"
Even Yu Jin felt a rare rush of fighting spirit.
He stood up.
SWISH——!
Yu Jin pushed off lightly, shooting skyward as well.
Not long after.
In the skies above the Wasteland,
The two figures faced each other a kilometer apart, left and right.
Yu Jin sized up Jon.
Jon also observed Yu Jin.
"Eye of Insight?"
Yu Jin had just thought of that, but shook his head right away.
He was here for the "hands-on experience"—if he peeked and learned all the guy’s abilities ahead of time, wouldn’t that be cheating?
He’d rather make it harder on himself—a bit more "training effect" that way.
On the other side.
Jon’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Jon’s eyes narrowed tightly!
Jon’s gaze had narrowed to a slit!
"Damn..."
"I really can’t see through him!"
Outwardly calm, Jon was inwardly freaking out.
In the past ten years, the reason he’d always won was his "Pupil" attribute.
The "Pupil" attribute wasn’t combat power itself.
But...
It could analyze target info, abilities, weaknesses, even predict the opponent’s moves or simulate their future!
"Visual Analysis Level 7!"
"Weakness Capture Level 6!"
"True Vision Level 5!"
"Eye of All Things Level 3!"
"..."
The "Pupil" attribute’s seven abilities—all observation and detection.
But...
Jon used them all, got nothing!
Worse yet,
When he used the Tier Seven "Pupil" Attribute Ability "Destiny Insight",
His soul jolted violently!
His eyes throbbed with stabbing pain.
Then...
"Huh?"
"Shit, it’s blood..."
Jon reached out and touched the blood streaming from his eye corners, totally lost.
He’d just taken one look—how come his eyes were almost ruined?
"Uh?"
Not far off,
Yu Jin looked at Jon, also at a loss.
What the heck, man?
I didn’t even do anything, and you just started bleeding from your eyes—did I scare you or what?
"Collision Attribute?"
Yu Jin raised an eyebrow.
"..."
Tier Seven Evolvers have super sharp perception—even at a kilometer, Jon heard Yu Jin’s comment.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his thoughts.
No clue why his "Pupil" Attribute Abilities all failed on this guy.
But...
No big deal!
He had a second attribute: Cards!
WHIR——!
Jon put his hands together.
Hundreds, thousands of cards floated into view around him.
"Drawing Cards Level 7!"
Jon called out.
WHIR——!
Nearly a thousand cards fanned out in front of him.
This was the only Ability of the "Card" Attribute.
[Drawing Cards Level 7: Draw seven cards from a randomly refreshed card deck—each card has a different one-use Effect]
[Includes: Attack Card / Defense Card / Healing Card / Trap Card / Terrain Card / Teleportation Card / Rule Card]
"True Vision Level 5!"
He activated the "Pupil" Attribute Ability.
In a flash,
The once-blurry cards came into sharp focus before his eyes.
He could "cheat"—see every card’s effect!
"Haha!"
Jon laughed.
For the last ten years, his opponents were all like that fool over there.
Thinking he was doing a circus act?
Not even bothering to interrupt while he fired up the Drawing Cards ability?
"Well then, you’ve lost your chance!"
Jon raised his hand, picking out the strongest, most compatible seven cards out of over a thousand!
By rights—
Drawing cards is totally random, all luck.
But his "Pupil" Attribute Ability made him a full-on cheat player during the draw!
"Trap Card—Imprisonment!"
"Attack Card: Sea of Fire!"
"Healing Card: Sacred Dew!"
"Terrain Card: Swamp Slow!"
"Rule Card: Both parties take +100% damage in this area!"
"Defense Card: Reflect 30% of attacks!"
"Teleportation Card: Substitute Puppet!"
No sooner said than done.
All this, Jon finished in a split second.
Like a card magician, he flung one card after another.
Some he threw at Yu Jin, some at himself, others up into the sky above both their heads.
"Hmm?"
Yu Jin realized he was imprisoned.
CRACK—!
He exerted a bit of force, the imprisonment shattered.
"?"
Jon was dumbfounded.
[Trap Card: Imprisonment]
[Effect: Imprison an enemy up to two ranks lower than yourself for one second]
SWISH——
Yu Jin realized a sea of fire suddenly appeared around him.
WHIR——!
Yu Jin raised his hand, a black hole appeared on his palm.
The black hole instantly sucked the sea of fire clean—like it was never there.
"?"
Jon was stunned.
But soon enough, he realized he was stunned too soon.
The black hole in the other guy’s hand began to slowly expand.
SWISH——!
Yu Jin gave it a gentle push.
The black hole zipped over and appeared right before Jon.
Then...
All of Jon’s cards—whether thrown midair or floating around him—
WHIR——!
Were all sucked straight into the black hole.
"So it really works?"
Not far away,
Yu Jin looked on, a little amazed.
[Space Black Hole Level 1]
[Active Effect: Collapse space in an area, generate a black hole, absorb and annihilate all matter and energy within the region]
He’d only been testing if the guy’s "Cards" would count as matter and energy.
Yu Jin hadn’t even used Eye of Insight, but now he pretty much understood the guy’s abilities.
Some skills may be strong, others have special mechanics.
But...
Having everything can also mean having nothing.
A Space Black Hole isn’t that hard to crack—as long as you hit it with enough energy, you can break it.
Doesn’t take much—just more than Yu Jin used when calling up the black hole.
This time, Yu Jin didn’t even use much power, maybe one-tenth?
By energy coefficient calculus...
1,800,000 * 0.1 = 180,000.
"Uh, think I put in too much."
Yu Jin scratched his head.
But aside from Yu Jin’s goof,
The core was still Jon’s abilities.
Trying to be attack, defense, terrain, and trap all at once—average at everything, but also mediocre at everything.
"Boring."
Yu Jin shook his head, lost interest in fighting on.
One thought,
WHIR——!
The Space Black Hole instantly expanded several times over.
Jon, together with his cards, was swallowed up.
SWOOSH——!
Yu Jin waved his hand, the black hole vanished.
[You have defeated and killed "Tier Seven Evolver—Daluo City Lord"!]
["Strongman’s Spoils" activates...]
[You acquire one of his Attributes!]
[You awakened your tenth Attribute: Card!]
...
Daluo City.
Utter dead silence.
Yu Jin dropped down from the sky, landing before the City Lord’s Mansion.
Soon after,
Nearly a million subordinates suddenly erupted in a thunderous shout:
"OHHH——"
"Invincible New City Lord!"
And before Yu Jin’s eyes, new text information appeared.
[Your divine might descends, and with the body of a mere ant, you have single-handedly conquered the "Fourth-level Da Luo Interstellar Refuge Fortress"!]
[Wasteland Points +100,000,000!]
[You obtained resources: Tier Ten Energy Crystal * 40!]
...
