Chapter 313: Opening the Treasure Chest
Chapter 313: Opening the Treasure Chest
September 25, 2017
Lu HaiKong was surprised to find that he had acquired a high-level talent, a pleasant surprise indeed.
Meanwhile, Ye Junru was completely dumbfounded.
As Lu HaiKong received a system prompt, so did Ye Junru, and it was this prompt that left her in a state of confusion.
"Congratulations on assisting in capturing the Mega Fort. You gain 150,000 skill experience points to distribute and a Silver Chest."
"Your 455 Yellow Turban Warriors have leveled up through hard combat and are now at the Elite tier."
Ye Junru wasn't surprised by the first system prompt, as she had experienced this before, but the second one was a first for her.
She knew the troops she led hadn't fought in a real battle yet, and while the Mega Fort campaign was significant, and the experience gained afterward was substantial, there was no reason for them to reach the Elite tier in just one battle.
Based on their past experiences, such a battle would require at least two or three more engagements, if not more, for troops to reach the Elite tier.
Ye Junru was both delighted and deeply puzzled by this situation until she noticed that all of Lu HaiKong's remaining Bandit Guards had advanced to the Elite tier. Then, she suddenly realized that she had benefited from Lu HaiKong's success.
After understanding the situation, Ye Junru's expression became even more complex.
In her opinion, if Lu HaiKong didn't trust them, he would never reveal such a terrifying training speed, let alone help them upgrade their troops.
With this in mind, she didn't know how to distribute the rewards from the Mega Fort.
Just as Ye Junru was feeling perplexed, Lu HaiKong walked over with a Golden Chest, waving it in his hand.
"The battle is over, and I'll take this chest. You don't need to choose three items; I'll take this one, as only I can open it anyway."
Ye Junru was startled, about to speak when Lu HaiKong interrupted her.
"Alright, alright. I still have some matters to attend to at my fort, so I'll take my leave. Feel free to visit my fort when you have time." Without giving Ye Junru a chance to respond, Lu HaiKong departed with his soldiers.
Ye Mei, the hyperactive girl, jumped over to Ye Junru and whispered in her ear, "Sister, this guy is so generous! He got all those rewards and only took one chest. Be careful; he might have taken a liking to you and is expecting some compensation later!"
"Ah!" Before Ye Mei could finish, Ye Junru gave her a playful tap on the head.
After calming Ye Mei, Ye Junru's beautiful face broke into a captivating smile, "I didn't expect this domineering guy to have such a thoughtful side."
Ye Junru understood that Lu HaiKong was passing the ball to her, seemingly giving her all the spoils of war but actually leaving the distribution of these rewards to her.
She could send some to Lu HaiKong or choose to keep them all for herself; the decision was entirely hers.
"It's a bit of a headache deciding how to distribute these spoils," she thought.
On the other side, while Ye Junru was pondering, Lu HaiKong had already left the vicinity of the Mega Fort.
Instead of returning to his fort with his troops, Lu HaiKong decided to stop and rest at a nearby location.
After a day of battle, the soldiers in the Elite Guard were tired, so they took a break and had some dry rations.
As the Elite Guard rested, Lu HaiKong gave simple instructions to Pan Feng, handing over the troops to his command and asking him to lead them back.
Lu HaiKong's original plan was straightforward: to capture the Mega Fort, and after doing so, he should have returned with his troops.
However, while capturing the Mega Fort, Lu HaiKong had used the One-Glimpse Ten Thousand Li skill, which has two effects. Lu HaiKong, thinking that it was all the same money, decided to use both the Heaven-Hanging Eye and the Heaven-Penetrating Eye.
In other words, Lu HaiKong had unintentionally acquired all the resource points within a 300-meter radius.
There were quite a few resource points nearby, but most were Bandit Camps and Bandit Camps, which were now Ye Junru's resources since she had established her territory there. Lu HaiKong, having no interest in the Mega Fort's rewards, let alone these resource points.
However, there was one special resource point that piqued Lu HaiKong's interest—a dungeon. He had never discovered a dungeon resource point before, but he had benefited from them through the Bandit Camps. The Tomb Guard Legion had brought him significant advantages, making him value these camps even more and eagerly anticipate their unique spawns.
In the past few months, while the Bandit Camps had spawned unique bandits, they hadn't produced any dungeon bosses like before.
Having discovered this dungeon, Lu HaiKong wanted to check it out, especially since its location was relatively hidden, and without the One-Glimpse Ten Thousand Li skill, it would likely remain undiscovered.
Moreover, Lu HaiKong had already been quite accommodating to Ye Junru, leaving her to distribute the Mega Fort's rewards, and the Bandit Camps and Bandits were entirely untouched. Taking just the dungeon didn't seem too unreasonable.
However, Lu HaiKong didn't plan to bring his entire force; he hadn't intended to stay long anyway, and they had limited supplies. Each Bandit Guard only carried three days' worth of rations, making even eating a challenge.
So, this time, Lu HaiKong decided to bring only Ma Pen and the newly advanced Bandit Leader, whom he named Cheng Jin, while the rest of the troops would return with Pan Feng.
After quickly assigning tasks, Lu HaiKong opened the Golden Chest.
As Lu HaiKong didn't plan to return immediately, he had to open the chest and retrieve its contents, as only he could see the Golden Chest, and his subordinates couldn't hold it for him.
The Golden Chest yielded a secret scroll and a bottle of Talent Pills, which Lu HaiKong had already acquired quite a few of.
