Wasteland's Only King
Chapter 288 - 54: Carol: Welcoming the Supreme Lord’s Arrival! Diana’s Despair!
Time slowly passed.
In the blink of an eye, three days went by.
During these three days, Yu Jin was extremely busy.
In order to make Dawn Fortress even stronger, as Lord, Yu Jin spared no effort in bringing Naiya along to practice the ’Co-progression’ Talent.
Even Yin Yao and Neil, who had already been injected with Energy before, joined in on the second day.
The sweat Yu Jin poured out was all rewarded.
Naiya, Yin Yao, and Neil all received a tremendous boost.
Naiya’s improvement was the most obvious, given it was her first time.
Not only did she successfully awaken the Fourth Attribute ’Virtual’, her own Tier also broke through once more.
Originally, due to Civilization reward, she had jumped from Tier Twelve to Tier Fifteen, but in just three days, she stepped into the realm of Tier Sixteen.
The base Value for Tier Sixteen had already surpassed one hundred million.
Naiya thus became the second Evolver in Dawn Fortress, after Yu Jin, whose Value broke one hundred million.
And this time, after such a long while, Naiya finally overtook Yin Yao again, reclaiming her spot as the strongest in Dawn Fortress, just behind Yu Jin.
It’s worth mentioning—
During these three days, Nasha, Aili, Yu Pan’Er, Dongfang Li, and Nangong Linglong also joined in.
However, they didn’t directly receive Energy injection; at most, they could pick up some leftover scraps.
Even so—
They still received a decent boost.
Nasha, who had lost her Attribute for a long time, was an Evolver with Tier but no Attribute Ability, finally reawakened her Wind Attribute.
But...
Nasha felt a bit disappointed.
Now, what she wanted was no longer the Wind Attribute, but a more functional Attribute.
For example...
An Attribute like Yu Pan’Er’s.
In just three days—
If anyone performed the best, it was definitely Yu Pan’Er.
Her Tier was the lowest among the girls, but thanks to her Attribute, she stole the show close to 99 percent of the time.
This made Nasha super envious, even making her think about ’apprenticing under Yu Pan’Er’...
Boom—
Rumble——!
Dawn Fortress suddenly trembled, making everyone stop what they were doing. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
On the gigantic fifty-meter bed, Yu Jin lightly coughed twice and sat up.
The Tao Naimu Xiang sisters at his side draped a white robe over him.
"Promotion complete."
Yu Jin spoke softly.
As the words fell—
All the girls in the room had faces full of anticipation.
"Let’s go see!"
"Go see what new changes came to Dawn Fortress!"
"Now that promotion is complete..."
"Are we finally leaving this Star Realm to head for the real Star System Wasteland?"
...
...
Outside the P-8808 Star Realm—
During the past three days—
While Yu Jin was immersed in enjoying the ’Free Bird’ service, the endless starry sky outside the Star Realm unfolded one tragic, heroic scene after another.
Da Gu Fortress was the first victim.
Its Lord, Ootani Shunzai, didn’t even get a chance to resist, falling in bitter regret under a joint siege by a host of High-tier Civilization Forces.
His Da Gu Fortress was seized by those High-tier Civilization Forces.
They drew lots to decide who would own the first fortress.
In the end—
The Closter Civilization Forces claimed Da Gu Fortress.
After Da Gu Fortress—
Within the Star Realm, fortresses big and small started rushing out, like mushrooms after the rain.
The High-tier Civilization Forces were confused—
Why did these promoted players’ fortresses seem to have scheduled their departure, all leaving the Star Realm within these three days?
But that didn’t matter.
Swoosh—
Swoosh, swoosh——!
In the endless starry sky outside the Star Realm—
Beams of Energy shot out one by one, striking the promoted players’ fortresses.
These promoted player Lords suffered exactly the same fate as Ootani Shunzai.
Killed themselves, fortress stolen, subordinates captured as Slaves.
But...
While civilizations like Closter were besieging and looting these promoted player fortresses, they felt a bit of doubt in their hearts.
One gaze after another, always focused on the three super large fortresses deep in the starry sky.
There, the Carol Fleet was positioned.
So far—
They still hadn’t figured out where Carol actually came from or which Civilization Force she belonged to.
All they knew was...
This fleet’s makeup and strength were like giant beasts in this section of the sky.
Even though...
A month ago, after that message leaked, all the major Civilization Forces sent more fortresses and fleets to the P-8808 Star Realm battlefield.
But these forces, none of which ranked in the top 10,000, wouldn’t just send over three super large Interstellar Fortresses solely based on an uncertain rumor.
As things stand—
In this stretch of sky, besides the Carol Fleet,
The total number of super large fortresses had exceeded one hundred.
It was an absolutely staggering figure, and the Closter Civilization, who seized Da Gu Fortress, deployed a full three super large fortresses to hold this position.
"The Carol Fleet has still not made a move..."
"They must be waiting for that lucky player!"
"Whenever she acts, we have to follow immediately—we can’t let opportunity slip away!"
Similar communications orders were issued within all the major Civilization Forces.
In reality—
Up to now—
The Stellar Battlefield looked lively, but the super large fortresses from each force, even the large fortresses, had never really stepped in.
Time slowly passed.
In the densest nebula on the very edge of the P-8808 Star Realm—
Another fortress’s shadow was gradually taking shape.
Compared to Da Gu and other Interstellar Fortresses appearing in the last three days, this one was noticeably much larger.
"Yo?"
"A medium-sized fortress?"
"This new player’s got guts—even promoted to Intermediate Fortress right in Newbie Village?"
Voices of discussion emerged on the communications channel of civilizations like Closter.
