Chapter 89: Golden Blind Box
Wang Yi piloted the Floating Mountain back to the village. Seeing everyone, he announced loudly, "The void invasion has ended! We’ve won at least three months of peaceful development time, and you all share the credit! Jelena, Nangong Jin, tally the casualties. Anyone seriously injured, come to me for treatment immediately!"
The crowd responded enthusiastically.
Some people on site were indeed injured, but they were all minor wounds—a sprained ankle here, a scrape there. Nothing serious, and certainly not severe enough to require the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles.
Wang Yi was very pleased to see this. He left Jelena and Nangong Jin to clean up the battlefield, then eagerly headed to the Chaos Warehouse to take stock of the spoils.
There were now a total of 33 Treasure Chests in the Chaos Warehouse.
Of these, 31 were spoils Treasure Chests, one was an extra reward for ending the void invasion early, and one contained a Golden Blind Box from the system.
Wang Yi started by opening the spoils Treasure Chests, obtaining money bags, Simple Orc War Axes, Headhunter Spears, Bull Helmets, Leather Armor, Beast Hide Boots, and so on.
After opening the first 30 chests, Wang Yi felt the returns were average. The coins, when pooled together, only amounted to 205 Gold, but he did get a total of 422 pieces of equipment!
The 31st Treasure Chest was different. It glowed with a golden light and was the one dropped by the Beastman Hero. Wang Yi opened it to find a [Reclassification Certificate].
[Reclassification Certificate: Special Item, Purple. Requires 500 Chaos Energy to unseal. Can only be used by non-Lord Players or Indigenous People. Upon use, the user can reclassify as a Chopping King.
The Chopping King is a Sword and Saber Series physical damage class, possessing three skills: Wind-Concealment Technique, Deadly Slash, and Blade Storm. It can be upgraded through Cultivation. Successful reclassification grants the exclusive weapon, Gale Battle Blade.
Note: After reclassification, the user’s original skills will be erased, and they will be unable to learn any other skills.]
’A Reclassification Certificate... this is good stuff. But who should I give it to?’
After a moment of thought, Wang Yi put the [Reclassification Certificate] away for now.
He then opened the extra reward Treasure Chest and received one Low-Grade Chaos Crystal Stone, one Green Blind Box, one Green Chaos Egg, and a whopping 1,000 Gold Coins.
’Not bad at all. I’ll give a thumbs-up for the extra reward!’
Wang Yi currently had 78,818 Chaos Energy, so he wasn’t short on it at all. The Low-Grade Chaos Crystal Stone could provide 2,000 Chaos Energy, but he wasn’t in a hurry to absorb it and put it away for now.
The Green Chaos Egg could hatch a valiant and skilled adopted son, but his personality would be capricious.
Wang Yi thought about it and didn’t dare to hatch it.
’Time for the blind boxes!’
Two Chaos Blind Boxes now sat before Wang Yi: one was the Green Blind Box from the extra reward, and the other was the "custom-made" Golden Chaos Blind Box from the system.
He suppressed the urge to open the Golden Chaos Blind Box and, with great ceremony, first kowtowed to the Green Blind Box nine times. "Big Bro," he pleaded, "do your little brother a favor and give me a good treasure, something Enhance +10 or higher!"

Seven: Golden egg fried rice (Green, Enhance +7)
Eight: Mobile street vendor cart (Green, Enhance +8)
Nine: Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings (Green, Enhance +9)
====
’It’s already Enhance +9... couldn’t you have put in a little more effort and pushed it to +10, Big Bro?’
Wang Yi grumbled, but he was actually very satisfied.
As for which of the nine options to choose, it was obviously the Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings. It sounded so high-class and sophisticated, and it was the Enhance +9 version, too. He couldn’t pass it up.
After Wang Yi made his choice, a golden light flared before him. First, 1 Scroll appeared. But with a flash of gold, it became 2. Another flash, and it became 4... After the golden light flashed nine times in a row, a huge pile of Scrolls appeared in front of Wang Yi.
He was stunned for a moment. He casually picked up a Scroll, and a quick glance revealed its description.
[Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings: Use to build a Peach Blossom Forest at a designated location. The peach trees in the forest only bloom and do not bear fruit. They have strong Life Force and can adapt to various climates. The Peach Blossom Forest can beautify the environment, purify the air, increase the territory’s environment index, and produce peach blossoms and peach wood. Please note: The peach trees are ordinary, mundane trees and can be chopped down or burned.]
’Let me think... it must be like this: the original version is one set of Construction Drawings. Each enhancement doubles the number of drawings, so being enhanced 9 times gave me 512 sets of Construction Drawings?’
Wang Yi counted the number of Scrolls in front of him. That was right—there really were 512 of them!
’My goodness, so many Peach Blossom Forests... where should I put them all? Maybe build a defensive line of Peach Blossom Forests along North Mountain? And what’s this environment index? What’s the use of having a high index? Ah, forget it. I’ll figure that out later...’
Wang Yi put away the 512 Scrolls and turned his gaze to the Golden Chaos Blind Box.
[Chaos Blind Box: Golden quality. Consumes 100 Chaos Energy. 60% chance to open a Purple item, 40% chance to open a Golden item!]
’Come on, Big Bro, give it your all! Drop an incredible golden legendary for me!’
Wang Yi kowtowed to the Golden Chaos Blind Box nine times, then another nine times, and after a moment’s thought, another nine times. Only then did he open it, full of anticipation.

Wang Yi’s spirit soared!
’An Energy Lighthouse again!’
’War Ancient Tree Construction Drawings, that’s definitely good stuff!’
’A Steam Airship, that’s awesome!’
’Mobile Storm is here too, the Carnival version! I’ll definitely have to pull for one in the future when I get the chance, just to see what it is!’
’An Enhance +7 pig-slaying knife... the name isn’t great, but I wonder if it can be enhanced into a dragon-slaying saber!’
’An Enhance +9 hydrating face mask... this one’s a bit of a letdown.’
’Tsk tsk, a Golden Experience Book, a Golden Chaos Egg, and a Golden Skill Book! Oh, Brother Tongzi, Brother Tongzi, you really know how to make me happy and torn at the same time!’
Wang Yi shook his head and sighed. He thought to himself that he was missing out on a lot of good things this time. As for his choice, it was, of course, the Lord Skill Book!
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Skill Book for the rare Lord Skill [Mountain and River Array]. Using this Skill Book requires 100 Lord Experience. Would you like to use it?"
’Mountain and River Array? The name alone sounds powerful. Use it!’
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Lord Skill [Mountain and River Array]."
"Ding! [Mountain and River Array] has been enhanced and has mutated into the special Lord Skill [Commanding Mountains and Rivers]..."
