Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 246 - 213: Be My Woman, and I Will Protect You

「A short while earlier, on Huaguo Mountain, in front of Eggshell Castle.」

The Galaxy Airship landed slowly.

The sky had not yet brightened, and it was quiet around Eggshell Castle.

Wang Yi stepped out of the Galaxy Airship and quickly summoned his Bronze War Chariot.

As for Li Longyu, the carefree woman had fallen asleep in her seat on the Galaxy Airship, a Gatling Gun still cradled in her arms.

Seeing how soundly she was sleeping, even drooling a little, Wang Yi decided not to wake her.

’Why are some people so pretty? It must be because they’re carefree. Falling asleep so fast and sleeping so deeply... she’s really one of a kind!’

Wang Yi shook his head.

Just then, Wadu flew to his side and said, "Master, you’ve returned?"

In fact, Wadu had already appeared when he was approaching the Huaguo Mountain territory, guiding Wang Yi in.

This sleepless Governor now served as Eggshell Village’s mobile radar, monitoring the airspace.

Of course, he was also in charge of two Maintenance Robots and 160 Bayonet Robots, ensuring they were always fully charged.

Those 160 robots typically stood guard beside Eggshell Castle. Wadu also had a dedicated office inside Eggshell Castle, where he even held the title of Director of the Power Bureau.

Wang Yi patted Wadu’s head. "I’ve landed safely. You can go and play."

As he spoke, he headed toward Eggshell Castle.

He knew Jelena was resting in Eggshell Castle. He had brought Li Longyu here, and since she was in a completely new place, she would need someone to look after her. Jelena was undoubtedly the most suitable person for the job.

The Bayonet Robots guarding Eggshell Castle naturally didn’t stop Wang Yi. After entering the castle, however, he saw Yang Qingxiu with her sleeves rolled up, doing some cleaning.

"Oh, Qingxiu? It’s not even light out, and you’re already here for work?"

Wang Yi was a little surprised.

Yang Qingxiu’s face immediately lit up with a smile when she saw Wang Yi. "Greetings, my Lord! I’m used to waking up early. I couldn’t get back to sleep anyway, so I thought I’d do some cleaning here!"

’What a great employee!’ Wang Yi thought. It occurred to him that Yang Qingxiu would also be a good choice to look after Li Longyu. "Qingxiu," he said, "there’s a woman of noble status in the airship outside. She’s still sound asleep. Could you go and take care of her for me? Whatever she asks for, try your best to accommodate her!"

"Alright!"

Yang Qingxiu nodded immediately.

"I’ll feel much better leaving her in your hands!"

Wang Yi no longer felt the need to find Jelena. He turned at once, intending to gather some of his forces.

This time, Wang Yi didn’t plan on taking a large contingent. The Galaxy Airship couldn’t hold that many people. He figured it would be sufficient to bring only a few elite experts along.

’Fish-Transformed Dragon needs to train Feng Yuxiu and forge the Yellow Springs Locks, so I’ll leave him behind. I’ll definitely have to bring that boy of mine. I can also take Xiang Yun and Hai Zhongxian, and maybe a few Soldiers. That should be about enough. Oh, right, and Hu Miaosuan. That guy’s useful in a pinch, so I should bring him too...’

Mulling this over, Wang Yi first took a ride to the Octagonal Cage. Along the way, he pulled up his territory management panel to check on recent recruitment.

To his surprise, while he had been away in Quejing City, Nangong Jin had managed to recruit eight King Level Soldiers.

Wang Yi’s Octagonal Cage was an Enhanced barracks. Originally, it could only recruit Normal and Potential Level professional fighters, but his enhancement had added three tiers, allowing it to recruit fighters up to King Level.

However, the probability of a King Level fighter appearing was extremely low, and the recruitment fee alone cost Ten Thousand Gold Coins.

Wang Yi couldn’t believe Nangong Jin had managed to recruit eight of them all at once!

Of course, the only reason there were eight was that Nangong Jin had a four-times recruitment ability. In reality, a King Level Soldier had only spawned in the Octagonal Cage twice.

And all eight of these King Level Soldiers were of the "Martial Saint Fengyu Cultivator" type!

’Damn, Martial Saints! The Western Depot’s power has really grown this time. I need to have Fish-Transformed Dragon equip them with Yellow Springs Locks immediately. With these eight Martial Saint guards, we should be all set!’

Wang Yi figured that if the Martial Saint Fengyu Cultivators were also equipped with Yellow Springs Locks, their combat power would increase even more. They probably wouldn’t reach Celestial God Level, but they would definitely be considered top-tier among King Level units.

Matches were held day and night in the Octagonal Cage. When Wang Yi arrived, he saw Boyka pummeling Sauce Burst.

The eight Martial Saint Fengyu Cultivators were sitting in the spectator seats, looking full of vigor. It seemed they had only just been recruited.

Wang Yi quickly led the eight Martial Saint Fengyu Cultivators to the high-end armory. A moment later, he took them to the Military Intelligence Camp to enlist. In the future, they would also have to undergo flight training, be equipped with Jade Jiaolongs, create capsule items, and so on and so forth.

Wang Yi remained busy until the sky was fully bright.

Meanwhile, inside the Galaxy Airship, Li Longyu rubbed her eyes and finally woke up.

"Hm?"

She saw a pretty young girl standing beside her. Hugging her Gatling Gun, she asked in confusion, "Who are you? And where is Yang Jian?"

"Yang Jian? Are you referring to our Lord? He went to take care of some things. My name is Yang Qingxiu, and our Lord asked me to look after you!"

"Yang Qingxiu?"

Li Longyu blinked. She glanced outside the airship and asked, "Where is this? Is there a place I can bathe and change?"

"This is Eggshell Village! And yes, of course there’s a place to bathe and change!" Yang Qingxiu nodded. "Please come with me, miss. I will show you the way."

Li Longyu nodded. ’This girl must be Yang Jian’s handmaiden,’ she thought to herself. ’She seems quite likable, though.’
