Wasteland's Only King - Chapter 201 - 11: Preparations for Level 10 Dawn City! Half a Million Return to Blue Star!
Chapter 201: Chapter 11: Preparations for Level 10 Dawn City! Half a Million Return to Blue Star!
“Waaah…”
On the ten-meter bed.
Naiya was crying her eyes out like a weeping beauty.
Her whole face was swollen and red from crying.
A moment ago—
She’d still been staring at Yu Jin, spacing out, thinking about that ’Knowledge’, when suddenly he took off his helmet and woke up.
And then…
Naiya, having done a bunch of mental prep, boldly suggested, “I want to try it with the honorable Lord City Lord.”
And then…
Naiya, a Tier Nine Evolver, broke down and cried. Pathetic.
“Waaah…”
“Why does it hurt so much, no one told me it would hurt this bad…”
Naiya whimpered and sobbed. Right now there wasn’t a trace of the Queen of Moore Star in her, she looked just like a clueless little loli.
“Ahem—”
On the big bed, Yu Jin coughed twice to defuse the awkwardness.
With Naiya crying like this, he felt like some sort of creepy old man.
But actually…
He hadn’t even gotten the chance to do anything yet.
Hadn’t even moved, and this loli was already knocked out of commission.
Yu Jin shook his head, sighed softly, and got up from the bed.
“Ah—!”
Naiya let out a little cry, face red, covering her eyes.
Only…
Through her fingers, those big, blinking eyes could still peek out.
“…”
Yu Jin said nothing, and walked to the City Core.
Even though nothing had actually happened, he realized a problem—
This ’Super-Luxury Ten-Meter Bed’ was kind of old-fashioned now.
At his current level, basic values of a Tier Sixteen Evolver, even a tiny bit of extra force would reduce the bed to splinters on the spot.
So…
[Beep beep—!]
[You have purchased the item ’Ultra-Luxury Ten-Meter Bed’!]
[Quantity purchased: 1]
[Points deducted: 5,000,000]
[Points balance: 47.8 billion]
…
…
Dawn City.
Yu Jin’s figure appeared from the void.
From Naiya, he’d already gotten up to speed on the recent development in Dawn City.
Worth mentioning—
Yu Jin’s earlier suspicions had been confirmed.
He’d only actually spent, at most, 5 days on Mars OL.
But on A3 Planet, a whole 30 days had gone by.
Logically, this didn’t make a lot of sense.
“Unless…”
“Mars originally had a normal time rate.”
“But once it was used as a Wasteland OL server, the internal time changed. At least, compared to low-dimension A3 Planet, it’s different?”
Yu Jin had some guesses, but couldn’t really confirm them.
At the same time, he silently noted the 1:6 time ratio, which would help him control his time in Wasteland OL next time.
The High-dimensional Helmet’s 30-day cooldown also meant Yu Jin couldn’t log in to Wasteland OL again for at least 30 days.
Yu Jin walked the streets of Dawn City.
To avoid unnecessary commotion, he used his ’Presence Reduction’ ability.
“Level 9 Dawn City…”
Yu Jin strolled along the street, watching the flow of people and the massive Ring of the Sky at the city’s edge, feeling a bit dazed for a moment.
“This is my city.”
That line echoed in Yu Jin’s heart.
This trip to Wasteland OL wasn’t just about gaining Unlimited Value and Limit-Breaking Stones for Yu Jin.
The real impact was a change in mindset.
Before this—
Yu Jin had always been like a tightly wound spring.
After landing on A3, he was busy promoting Dawn City and getting back to Blue Star.
Once back on Blue Star, purifying Pollution, purifying Oumuamua 2.
Returning to A3, dealing with wave after wave of Alien Invaders, leveling up nonstop, preparing for Star System Wasteland promotion.
The stress in Yu Jin’s heart had peaked when he killed Holland in the Stellar Duel, but then was instantly killed himself by a giant high-dimensional hand.
Which is also why—
He’d left Dawn City behind for a while, eager to log in to Wasteland OL and try to peep some High-dimensional Player secrets.
But once Yu Jin was actually in Mars OL, he found out…
This whole “High-Dimension” thing, they’re just regular players, nothing that scary.
And above High-Dimension, maybe there are even higher levels of existence.
This game of Wasteland, who knows where it comes from, but seems to encompass all civilizations and life in the universe and star river.
Promotion might have an end. Or maybe it doesn’t.
The real thing that mattered was probably the sights along this endless road, and the people beside him.
Whew—
Yu Jin let out a long, deep breath.
In Wasteland’s Extraordinary System, there was no “Dao Heart” setting like in xianxia novels.
But at this moment, Yu Jin felt crystal clear and at peace.
“Feels good, haha!”
…
…
Dawn City, Tower of the Sky.
Inside the Council Hall, everyone had gathered.
Naiya had already told Neil about Yu Jin’s return, and Neil had quickly notified everyone else.
And so—
In just a short time—
All of Dawn City’s current leadership was here, waiting for Yu Jin to show up.
The last thirty days, everyone had been really busy.
But it was all worth it.
Dawn City had advanced to Level 9.
According to Neil, the window for reaching Level 10 had also opened up, but Yu Jin would have to preside over it himself.
Buzz—
On the utterly lavish throne—
Yu Jin’s figure shifted from vague to solid.
“Chief!”
“City Lord!”
“Xiaojin!”
“Master!”
“…”
All sorts of titles rang out at once.
When he heard “Master”, Yu Jin’s mouth twitched and he turned to look over.
The speaker was none other than Nasha from Ghost King City.
Nasha had Aili standing beside her as well.
“Maaaster~!”
Nasha got even more excited when Yu Jin looked her way, calling out again.
“…”
The mood in the hall turned a little awkward.
“Cough, cough—”
Yu Jin cleared his throat and waved at Nasha to quiet down.
He noticed that Old Yu, standing in front, was looking at him with a very odd expression.
“Everyone.”
“Thank you for your hard work during this time.”
Yu Jin’s voice deepened, carrying extra weight—the authority of a City Lord.
