Chapter 95: First Victory (Extra update for the leader!)

The chaotic world is a huge but broken world system.

It originated from an ancient catastrophe.

It has undergone millions of years of complex evolution.

Eventually, the current situation of division among various ethnic groups emerged.

There are powerful legendary species, as well as prosperous and powerful empires. There are both high and mighty mythical individuals, and there are forbidden existences hidden in the long river of time.

Qi Ji understands the general history.

Know about major events in some areas.

But it is far from being omniscient and omnipotent.

As a lord, it is impossible to do everything personally.

You must learn how to make good use of your adventurer.

Miracle City is still in its initial stage. Although it has gathered a group of adventurers, these adventurers are too young and their overall strength is not strong enough and needs further incubation.

Qi Ji believed it wouldn't take too long.

Adventurers will grow up!
They will use the power from Miracle City to spread the cultural influence of Miracle City, participate in various important events, and bring changes to the Eternal Night Forest and even the entire world.

At this stage.

The territory is developing rapidly.

However, there are still several important functional facilities to be built.

Miracle City's income is steadily growing, but the scarcity of blueprints has become the biggest constraint.

"Alas, there are too few blueprints circulating in the New Lord Market. Even if I have enough soul crystals, I may not be able to buy the blueprints needed for the territory in time!"

Qi Ji sighed, "It's necessary to build a teleportation station as soon as possible!"

He planned to save up a large amount of soul crystals to build a teleportation station before and after the territory was officially upgraded.

With a teleportation station, you can return to the lord world regularly. As the main world where tens of millions of lords live, there are large and small offline lord markets, and most mid- and low-level blueprints can be purchased relatively easily.

Qi Ji was thinking while inspecting the trading market.

Suddenly I saw an interesting drawing.

[Blueprint: Pool of Spirit], first-level building blueprint, construction cost: 500 soul crystals, 300 material essences, 200 mental power.

The construction cost is not expensive.

The blueprint costs 1800 soul crystals, which is not too expensive.

This building is exactly what the territory needs. It is a common facility whose main function is to absorb the adventurer's excess mental power and convert it into energy storage.

There are already many peak-level second-level and even third-level adventurers in the territory.

These adventurers have plenty of energy and may not be able to use it all every time. Miracle City currently has no plans to arrange for adventurers to explore the outside world, so there will be more or less waste.

The Pool of Spirit is equivalent to a small energy storage device.

It can store the adventurer's excess power. Although this energy cannot be used for construction and cannot be reused by adventurers, it can be used for some production activities in the territory and to assist the adventurer's spirit transformation.

Better than wasting!
Qi Ji plans to set up a reward mechanism.

Adventurers can gain some contribution points by injecting excess energy into the Spirit Pool, while adventurers or people who use the power of the Spirit Pool need to consume contribution points.

This creates a balance.

Boss Qi can also make some profit from the price difference in the process.

After some bargaining, he bought it for 1600 soul crystals and started construction immediately.

This level of spirit pool can store 200 points of energy, which is definitely enough for now, but in the future, as the territory increases, it will have to be upgraded or more spirit pools will have to be built.

……

The next day.

Open the city on time.

Miracle City was packed in seconds.

Panshi sighed, "It seems the number of people has increased again?"

Sanzhu: "Miracle City is being built too fast. If it continues at this rate, the mere second-level secret hall won't be enough!"

Tie Xin: "Then urge the lord to upgrade to level three as soon as possible. I finally found an interesting dungeon, and I don't want to miss out on the fun just because I can't queue for crystals!"

"Building a third-level secret hall? How easy is that!"

"Indeed, the Secret Realm Hall has one of the most expensive infrastructure costs!"

A young adventurer asked: "When will Undercity be activated? It will at least help disperse some of the crowds!"

"Forget it!"

"Once Undercity is opened, the territory will automatically advance to the second level. External threats will suddenly increase. I don't think the lord will take the initiative to upgrade before fully completing the construction of the territory."

"Moreover."

"After Undercity opens, new adventurer towns will naturally be opened up. If things go wrong, instead of creating a diversion, it might even lead to a tighter supply of adventurers in the territory."

"..."

Adventurers poured into the secret hall like a flood.

Although many people complained that Miracle City was too popular, every adventurer showed genuine joy and anticipation for the new day of adventure that was about to begin.

In front of a crystal.

"Boss Higanbana!"

"You go first, you go first!"

Several adventurers in the queue immediately gave up their seats when they saw the red spider lily.

These adventurers have limited energy and don't have to worry about not using it up, so there is no need to rush into taking risks immediately. It is better to watch the operations of the big guys, and you may get unexpected gains.

"Thanks!"

The red spider lily is not polite.

Activate the secret crystal as soon as possible.

I chose the Ten Kingdoms Secret Realm without hesitation.

At this time, two choices appear in front of you, the first is the prologue plot, and the second is the main plot.

Yesterday, she spent all her energy on the prologue, which made Higanbana depressed and uncomfortable for a long time, but now she is faced with a choice again and feels a little hesitant.

Higanbana challenged Ashina Genichirō twenty-four times and failed every time.

The process was not without reward. Her rapport with Wolf continued to deepen, she became more and more adept at using the character, and her understanding of Ashina Genichirō's fighting style grew.

The last one or two times.

We almost won.

Do I have to give up just to experience the official plot?

No, giving up is impossible, I must win the first victory!

Higanbana thought that she had 25 points of adventuring energy, which was more than enough to use in the official plot, so she might as well take some time to get rid of Ashina Genichirō first!
Just do it!

While the feel is still there.

Let’s get him done in one go!

Thinking of this, I chose the prologue part without hesitation.

After entering the prologue of Higanbana, it immediately skips the cutscenes and arrives at the Moon Viewing Tower in minutes. After getting the sword Kisemaru, it instantly sets off a bloody storm.

Kill all the Ashina soldiers with one or two swords!
Kill the Ashina organization's Yamauchi Shigenori with just three or four sword strikes!
Higanbana had fought with this group of miscellaneous soldiers at least twenty-four times, so she was naturally very familiar with their moves and reactions. Killing them was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables, and the adventurers outside were stunned on the spot.

"This……"

“It’s too fierce!”

"I can't even defeat a single soldier!"

Amidst the shocked and admiring gazes of several rookies, Higanbana has arrived at the Reed Plains, once again challenging the man who is like her destined rival in this poetic and picturesque place.

The two men fought.

Several rookie adventurers were shocked to find out.

Even when facing Ashina Genichirō, who is far stronger than himself.

Higanbana was still able to fight back and forth with it. Every move seemed to be the result of thousands of tempers, and every swing of the sword seemed to be the result of a lot of precise calculations.

With absolutely weak strength.

But they can fight back and forth.

Dang Dang Dang!
In the reed marsh, the flashes of swords clashed as fast as a rainstorm.

Hundreds of reeds were torn into pieces, and the wind blew the white fluff like flying snow.

Although Higanbana was very familiar with Ashina Genichirō's moves, she still made mistakes during actual combat, and after fighting for thirty or forty rounds, she was unfortunately defeated by one move.

The gap in strength is too big!

There is almost no margin for error.

One wrong move and the whole game is lost.

First battle, lost...

The third battle, defeated...

The seventh battle was still a defeat...

She challenged six or seven more times in a row. Although Higanbana was narrowly defeated each time, her savvy as a gifted adventurer was fully demonstrated, and the onlookers could clearly feel her improvement with each round.

Unknowingly.

The crystal was surrounded by adventurers who came to observe and learn.

Among them are even bigwigs like Baihe Jushi and Sanzhu.

Baihe Jushi has not yet entered the official plot, and his goal is also to defeat Ashina Genichirō.

However, due to his current low level of cultivation and lack of energy, he must be cautious in every challenge. At this moment, he has learned a lot from the red spider lily.

As for the first victory honor?

The old dean is indifferent to fame and fortune and doesn't care much about it.

He was more concerned about whether he could break through his limits and defeat Ashina Genichirō himself today.

Sanzhu: "Laohe, what do you think?"

Baihe Jushi: "This girl is really talented. I feel like she's about to win!"

The other adventurers were all excited when they heard this. There was a wave of cheers and encouragement, and everyone wanted to witness this historic moment.

at last!

The eighth challenge!
After Higanbana and Ashina Genichirō fought for fifty or sixty rounds.

With her unwavering will to win, the experience accumulated from dozens of battles and nearly a thousand rounds, and the wolf's own keen perception and insight, she finally caught a once-in-a-lifetime flaw!

"It's now!"

The red spider lily exploded completely.

He struck out with the strongest sword strike yet.

When the two passed each other, their backs were facing each other.

In an instant, the world was silent and time seemed to have stopped.

Ashina Genichirō's breastplate cracked and blood spurted out from it. He seemed to have lost all his strength and fell to one knee on the ground with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"I lost... This is impossible!"

The outcome is decided!

Everyone was stunned.

Immediately everyone was ecstatic.

Even Baihe Jushi and Sanzhu showed expressions of extreme admiration.

After more than thirty arduous battles, Higanbana, with a character that only had the performance of a first-level four or five stars, actually succeeded in defeating a strong man who was at least a second-level four or five stars.

This is truly a miracle!
The moment Higanbana defeated Ashina Genichirō and felt the thunderous cheers in the secret hall, her heart was overwhelmed and she was almost in tears.

Genichirō Ashina is not the strongest enemy he has ever encountered.

But this was the hardest battle she had ever fought.

However, after countless trials and tribulations, and repeated suffering, when you finally succeed in defeating an enemy that was thought to be almost impossible to defeat, the excitement and emotion you feel is an incomparable and ultimate experience.

Don't be careless!

This guy's armor is very sturdy!

Although this blow is enough to defeat him, it cannot completely eliminate the threat. We must strike while the iron is hot and nip the grass in the bud!

Higanbana is also curious. Judging from the subsequent plot, this battle is destined to be a failure. If she can change her fate and turn defeat into victory, can the secret realm plot continue?

Although many thoughts flashed through my mind.

But in reality it was only a brief moment.

She raised her knife to deliver the final blow.

suddenly!

There was a sharp sound of breaking through the air!

Higanbana immediately sensed danger and caught a glimpse of the incoming cold light. She had to give up the attack and block the dart, but at the moment when she deflected the hidden weapon, a scene that no one expected happened.

Ashina Genichirō suddenly jumped up and launched a sneak attack.

not good!

Higanbana was shocked!
But it's too late!

The next moment the scene repeats itself.

The knife light cut through the night, blood beads bloomed in the air, and the wolf's arm was thrown high into the air.

"hateful!"

"mean!"

Higanbana lost the strength to resist again and fell to the ground. She thought that Ashina Genichirō was an upright warrior, but she never expected that this guy would be so despicable!

"Ninja of the God's Son, don't blame me for being mean... I have a reason why I absolutely cannot lose!"

Ashina Genichirō said slowly, "I will take the Son of God away!"

Done.

Turn around and leave.

Several figures walked out from the reeds.

These figures are Ashina Genichirō's exclusive ninjas, the Eagle Group.

Higanbana was just ambushed by the darts fired by these ninjas, which gave Ashina Genichirō the opportunity to take advantage.

You cleared the "Ashina Country" prologue, and gained +1 to the "Skill Stone: Crisis Sense" skill!

Higanbana won the duel.

But it ultimately failed to change the plot.

There were at least two hundred people watching in the hall.

Everyone experienced a roller coaster of shock, ecstasy, horror, and anger.

unacceptable!

The adventurers can't accept it!

At this moment, everyone is speaking up for the red spider lily.

"Ahhh!"

"What a bully!"

"I thought Ashina Genichirō was a gentleman, but I didn't expect him to be so despicable and unscrupulous!"

"Bah, what's Genichirō? From now on, I'd better call him Keichirō!"

"You little villain!"

"What a pity for Mr. Higanbana!"

"..."

Ashina Genichirō is currently the most sought-after figure in Miracle City. He has a mysterious background, powerful strength, and good looks. Recently, hundreds of adventurers have been defeated by him.

But for such a strong man.

Everyone still admires him!
What Genichirō is doing now.

It can be said that it directly led to the collapse of his personality.

This person is simply a narrow-minded, mean, selfish person with no sense of honor!
A few seconds later.

Exit the secret realm.

Although the red spider lily was depressed, it reluctantly accepted the result.

After all, she has defeated Ashina Genichirō, and she has become the only one in Miracle City who has defeated this powerful enemy. A new skill stone has also been revealed in this battle.

[Skill Stone: Danger Premonition], a second-level skill stone, requires 15 points of mental power to learn.

"nice one!"

Baihe Jushi, Sanzhu and others were delighted when they saw this skill stone.

This is a second-level skill stone, and only adventurers of level two or above have the chance to find it. The value of a second-level skill stone is generally at least several times that of a first-level skill stone.

not to mention.

This skill is not simple!
Baihe Jushi said, "This premonition of danger must be the wolf's special talent. Every time the opponent launches an irresistible attack, the wolf can always sense the danger in advance. It is one of its most core abilities!"

Sanzhu nodded. "If our adventurers or the people of the territory master this ability, they will surely be able to play an important role at critical moments when participating in various missions or external activities in the territory in the future."

This battle.

It didn't change the plot though.

But got the honor he wanted.

It also brought out such an important skill for Miracle City.

This result is quite satisfactory.

Even though we have completed eight challenges in a row today, not too much time has passed, so there is still plenty of time to continue the next adventure.

The red spider lily became excited again.

She wanted to know how the story would unfold.

How many secrets does this mysterious country have?

Why did Ashina Genichirō insist on taking the Son of God away?
What secrets are hidden in this young child?
