Chapter 573: Heavenly Craft Construction Token
Chapter 573: Heavenly Craft Construction Token
September 25, 2017
As Lu Haikong successfully opened the treasure chest and claimed the rewards, two consecutive system notifications appeared.
【Congratulations on successfully opening a Mythical Rank treasure chest. You have obtained 20 million assignable skill experience points and 1 Golden Freedom Ability Point.】
【Congratulations on successfully claiming the reward. You have obtained a chance to randomly increase your skill level!】
"Golden Freedom Ability Point? What is that?"
Lu Haikong was taken aback, but then suddenly remembered.
The ability points he had obtained before were all ordinary, and although he hadn't tried this kind of ability point, he knew that it couldn't be added to the final stretch of abilities like 79 or 89. After all, Zhao Yue'er had mentioned this to him.
In other words, ordinary ability points couldn't help the Sage in breaking through, and the appearance of this Golden Freedom Ability Point might be just what he needed to break through the threshold.
The more Lu Haikong thought about it, the more he felt this possibility was very high. If this was indeed the case, the value of this Golden Freedom Ability Point would be enormous.
However, none of Lu Haikong's current attributes required that final boost, so he had no way to verify his idea for now. He could only temporarily set aside the Golden Freedom Ability Point.
At this moment, compared to the Golden Freedom Ability Point, Lu Haikong was more curious about what his first Mythical Rank treasure chest had revealed.
"A Mythical Rank treasure chest, along with the effect of the Luck Charm, this time, if you don't give me an incredible item, I'll..."
With excitement, Lu Haikong picked up the item that had appeared from the Mythical Rank treasure chest.
The item that emerged from the Mythical Rank treasure chest was a token, and on this token was a large character: 【Build】. As Lu Haikong held it, his heart skipped a beat, feeling like he had been cheated this time. However, subconsciously, he still cast Appraisal.
Heavenly Craft Construction Token
Item Type: Consumable/Mysterious Item
Item Description: A replica of the token used by heavenly beings to construct buildings, said to possess mysterious divine powers.
Item Effect: After use, allows the construction of one building with blueprints/items for free.
Uses: 1/1
Seeing this number, Lu Haikong's mind was filled with countless curses.
Lu Haikong now strongly suspected that the Mythical Rank treasure chest he encountered was also fake due to the involvement of Zhang Liang, the guy with over 100 Strength. He felt this item was even less useful than something from a Golden Rank treasure chest.
"Damn it, I've been cheated! Where's the promised benefit of the first Mythical Rank treasure chest? Where's the incredible item? I even used the Luck Charm, and this is all I got? A building token is worth nothing compared to the Mythical Rank treasure chest I obtained by risking my life to eliminate Zhang Liang..."
As he spoke, Lu Haikong suddenly paused, because at that moment, he suddenly remembered an item he had obtained over a year ago, which might actually be useful.
Previously, after defeating the tomb guardian legion spawned by the roaming forces, Lu Haikong had opened a Legendary Rank treasure chest and obtained an item that made him question his life.
That item was the most expensive item to use that Lu Haikong had ever seen, and even with his considerable wealth now, he didn't dare to think about using it.
As soon as he used it, the exorbitant fee would instantly turn the now wealthy Lu Hai into a pauper, and might even cause Wang Jun to have a heart attack.
Beyond-Borders City Construction Token
Consumable/Construction Item
Item Effect: After successful use, you can construct a prefecture-level city outside the borders of the Great Han Empire.
Ps: Using this item to construct a Beyond-Borders City will yield unexpected benefits.
Item Usage Condition: 500,000,000 gold
This very item, the Beyond-Borders City Construction Token, can be used to build a prefecture-level city outside the Great Han's territory, and the cost is a staggering 500 million gold!
500 million! When this item first appeared, Lu HaiKong never dared to imagine such a huge sum in his wildest dreams.
Now, although Lu HaiKong has some money in hand, he certainly can't come up with 500 million.
Even if you include his physical assets, such as the cities of Qiang Yin, Yan Huang, and Beifeng, Lu HaiKong's net worth is definitely over 500 million, but in terms of liquid assets, Lu HaiKong estimates that he can hardly withdraw even 100 million.
Nowadays, Lu HaiKong has a large family business, and he is a true warlord with legions under his command. The amount of money his legions consume each year is staggering.
Not to mention, he has three cities to manage, so even if it's not 500 million, if he dares to ask Wang Jun for more than 30 million gold, Wang Jun would surely make his life difficult.
In the 1619 book, there's a version without a single mistake!
Originally, Lu HaiKong thought this Beyond-Borders City Construction Token would gather dust in his warehouse for years, maybe even forever, and he almost forgot about it.
But at this moment, as Lu HaiKong cursed the mythical-level treasure chest for yielding such a useless item, he suddenly remembered the Beyond-Borders City Construction Token. Lu HaiKong's heart began to pound with excitement.
"This thing might be worth 500 million!"
With this thought, Lu HaiKong couldn't help but ponder: Would constructing a Beyond-Borders City have any significance for him?
The answer is yes, and it's enormous!
Now, whether Lu HaiKong likes it or not, he's already on stage, with countless spectators watching. It's a glorious but also a very public position.
With everyone's attention highly focused on Lu HaiKong, he has almost no way to hide anything.
Everyone already knows what cards he's holding: the generals Dian Wei, Wen Chou, and Gao Lan; the soldiers of the Bloodbath and Vanguard Legions; and even the assets of Yan Huang, Beifeng, and Qiang Yin have all been exposed.
Indeed, at this moment, Lu HaiKong is incredibly powerful and glorious, but the audience below the stage is not a clear-eyed one, but rather a deep pool.
In this enigmatic world, no one knows what lurks in the depths of the pool.
Lu HaiKong himself knows that the strength of Ye Junru and her allies in Youzhou is not much weaker than his own, let alone the entire world.
In this situation, Lu HaiKong's position is very much like being the only one standing out in a dark forest.
Lu HaiKong has no idea how many dangers lurk in the darkness, and the only thing he can do now is to strengthen himself as much as possible, accumulating power in the shadows while being in the spotlight.
Only then will he have the power to suppress anyone who tries to take him down when they emerge from the forest!
