Chapter 847: The Upgrade Order
Chapter 847: The Upgrade Order
September 25, 2017
In Bingzhou, at the Beifeng Training Grounds.
Lu HaiKong was about to open a treasure chest when he was interrupted by his little sister, who had just obtained the Divine Drunkard's Wine. This greedy little girl couldn't resist and took a sip.
Normally, drinking this wine wouldn't have any effect on her, but after Lu HaiKong brought her out from the Cold Abyss, a significant portion of her strength was reduced, and due to her inability to transform into a Dragon, her alcohol tolerance started to decline. As a result, after just two sips, she was drunk.
When this little sister got drunk alone, there wasn't any issue, but the problem was that there was a 'big enemy' nearby, and when she got drunk, she started acting crazy.
Because of this, Lu HaiKong had no choice but to temporarily stop what he was doing and first take care of this drunk little ancestor before returning to open the treasure chest.
The first legendary-level treasure chest that Lu HaiKong opened gave him a small surprise.
The first legendary-level treasure chest that Lu HaiKong obtained was a [Top-tier General Trial Order].
This was Lu HaiKong's third such order, one had already assisted Pan Feng's advancement, and one had assisted Yueying's advancement. Now, with this additional order, another of his generals was about to advance to level 90.
Lu HaiKong had quite a few generals with strength at level 89, Wang Ti, Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, and the ancient Qin citizen Meng Qi, all were excellent generals.
However, these guys were just one step away from advancing, and some of them weren't even considering advancing. Lu HaiKong hoped that this [Top-tier General Trial Order] wasn't Gao Shun's exclusive privilege, or else he'd have too many in his hands.
With this thought in mind, Lu HaiKong casually took out the [Top-tier General Trial Order], and as soon as he did, he realized he had made a mistake. This item wasn't a [Top-tier General Trial Order], but a [Top-tier Scholar Trial Order].
When Lu HaiKong saw this, he was a bit dazed.
To be honest, Lu HaiKong didn't really care about the attributes of his scholars. Although he was initially curious about Shi Zhi's attributes, he didn't really pay attention to them. As time passed, Lu HaiKong gradually forgot about the attributes.
Later, as Lu HaiKong's influence expanded and his territory grew, he had more things to attend to, and his scholars were busy as well.
Lu HaiKong didn't just manage the territory, he also oversaw intelligence for his vast influence.
Under these circumstances, it was natural for Lu HaiKong to easily overlook their attributes. Moreover, in Lu HaiKong's eyes, Shi Zhi and Wang Jun's attributes weren't important; what mattered was their intelligence and administrative abilities.
One reason Lu HaiKong didn't pay much attention to their attributes was Wang Jun's [Bountiful Harvest] talent, which could increase the agricultural output of Lu HaiKong's territory by fifty percent.
This was indeed true, but Lu HaiKong discovered that Wang Jun could only enhance the Beifeng area, and not the entire territory. When considering the whole of Bingzhou, this enhancement wasn't really significant.
Based on these reasons, Lu HaiKong didn't pay much attention to their attributes.
He knew that scholars' talents might be powerful, but at this stage, Lu HaiKong's scholars were firmly tied to the territory, unable to move.
Even with the [Top-tier Scholar Trial Order] in hand, Lu HaiKong was at a loss for how to use it.
Lu HaiKong casually opened the attribute interface and adjusted the attributes of his scholars.
Shi Zhi and Wang Jun's attributes had already surpassed ninety, and this was clearly of no use to them. They were top-tier historical scholars, so even without reaching ninety, Lu HaiKong couldn't use it on them.
In this chapter, Lu HaiKong discovers the hidden potential of two unique items, the Top-tier Scholar Advancement Token and the Top-tier System Building Upgrade Token, and how they can enhance his existing items and the powerful buildings under his command.

Chapter: The Hidden Potential of Unique Items
Lu HaiKong, after examining the attributes of Wang Jun and Xin Ping, realized that both of them had reached the 80s, a significant improvement from their previous 70s. Not only had their attributes increased, but they had also acquired unique talents.
Wang Jun's talent, named 'Diligent and Honest,' is a passive ability that enhances the work ethic and efficiency of those around him, reducing their likelihood of corruption. This talent suits Wang Jun's personality well.
Xin Ping's talent, 'Silver-Tongued,' is an active ability primarily used for negotiations, fitting Lu HaiKong's perception of Xin Ping's role. However, after witnessing the talents of these two, Lu HaiKong felt they weren't as impressive as he'd hoped.
Intrigued by Tian Feng's talent, Lu HaiKong decided to inspect it. Unfortunately, upon examining Tian Feng's talent, Lu HaiKong was met with a disappointing question mark, leaving his curiosity unsatisfied.
Lu HaiKong wasn't too concerned, and at that moment, he was pondering the use of a Top-tier Scholar Advancement Token in his possession.
"Hmm, it seems this Top-tier Scholar Advancement Token will have to wait until Wang Jun and Xin Ping reach 89. For now, it's best to keep it tucked away." Lu HaiKong said, handing the token to the nearby Chen Ping.
Lu HaiKong then proceeded to open the two Mythical Treasure Chests.
The second chest revealed a Divine Pill, an item Lu HaiKong already had two of. He still held one in his hand, and an additional Divine Pill didn't bring much excitement.
Lu HaiKong pondered whether to use this item and who to use it on. Despite the claim of no side effects, he felt that upgrading through this method was not as effective as using a Trial Token.
The second chest's reward didn't satisfy Lu HaiKong, but the third chest provided him with a rather impressive item.

Item: Top-tier Building Upgrade Token
Type: Mystery Item
Description: A mysterious item with immense power, capable of enhancing and upgrading ordinary items, allowing for cyclical use.
Note: Can only upgrade items below the Legendary tier.
Cooldown: 1 month.
Lu HaiKong's eyes lit up when he saw this item, as he had encountered upgrade items before, but this was the first he'd seen that could be used permanently.
Lu HaiKong immediately thought of an item in his possession, a Top-tier Soldier Upgrade Token, and decided to test it.
However, upon taking out the Top-tier Soldier Upgrade Token, Lu HaiKong was met with a cold, disappointing message.
"Your item is already Legendary, and cannot be further upgraded."
Lu HaiKong was taken aback by this message, as he hadn't expected the Top-tier Soldier Upgrade Token to already be Legendary. He wondered if the item's attributes were hidden.
But upon further consideration, the Top-tier Soldier Upgrade Token's attributes were indeed exceptional. If it could be further upgraded, it would be like having a cheat code. Lu HaiKong then took out another item, a Top-tier System Building Upgrade Token, and he wanted to test its upgrade potential.
"Your item is already Legendary, and cannot be further upgraded."
The cold, familiar message echoed, and Lu HaiKong, as if he'd expected it, took out a Top-tier System Building Upgrade Token and successfully upgraded it to the Enhanced version.
"Although the effect isn't as groundbreaking as I'd initially imagined, the gap between the Top-tier System Building Upgrade Token and the Enhanced version is vast. If the Top-tier System Building Upgrade Token can be enhanced, I might consider upgrading all the buildings in my territory."
This was a significant advantage for Lu HaiKong, as he had many powerful buildings under his command.
The Fire Brigade, Territory Sub-Dungeon, Divine Farmer Temple, and more, all had unique abilities. Once upgraded, the benefits for Lu HaiKong would be immeasurable.
