Chapter 25: Upgrading the Altar! Summoning the Second Hero!
Wu Chi could sense Lin Daiyu’s intention.
She seemed to wish for a good sister to accompany her, perhaps missing her friends from before.
However...
getting a golden-tier hero on the first summon was already a stroke of incredible luck.
What about the second summon?
Given Lin Daiyu’s astounding performance, Wu Chi felt tempted.
“Gongzi, I was just...”
Seeing Wu Chi deep in thought, Lin Daiyu became flustered.
“Gongzi should simply follow your plans.”
“No problem.”
Wu Chi smiled and waved it off. “Let’s collect the loot boxes first.”
“With so many monsters...”
He glanced outside.
The battlefield was a mess of blood and gore, with countless dismembered limbs and chunks of flesh littering the ground.
Amidst the grisly scene, beams of light coalesced into kill reward boxes!
“Yes!”
Lin Daiyu sighed in relief and accompanied Wu Chi to gather the boxes.
618 monsters had left behind 618 loot boxes—it was no small task!
By the time they were done,
Wu Chi was nearly exhausted. Without Lin Daiyu’s help, he wouldn’t have been able to finish.
Still,
he chose not to open the boxes immediately.
Because,
the [Red Mansion] granted a hero bond bonus: [The Twelve Beauties of Jinling]!
Apart from boosting attributes, it provided a +1 Luck bonus,
which could influence loot box rewards!
Even if 1 point of luck didn’t make a huge difference,
there was no harm in waiting a bit longer for better outcomes.
Back in the territory,
Wu Chi gathered the Steel-Armored Boars near the pen, providing them with food and water.
Level: 1 → 2!New Hero Slot Available!Hero Level Cap Unlocked to Level 2!Ordinary Summoning, costing 10 Void Crystals.Advanced Summoning, costing 100 Void Crystals.
A jade belt paired with a silken, gauzy gown—an exquisitely crafted women’s outfit!
“It’s a beautiful dress, but I don’t need women’s clothing, thanks!”
Wu Chi’s face darkened as he continued placing Void Crystals.
-10! -10! -10! -10!...
After ten attempts,
Wu Chi’s patience was wearing thin.
The ink-and-wash scroll kept appearing,
but gold borders never showed up again. Silver borders appeared only once, with most results being bronze!
Unquestionably, his initial stroke of luck was just that—luck...
The silver-tier reward wasn’t bad, yielding an excellent piece of equipment.
[Celestial Silk Gloves]
Type: Equipment.Quality: Purple.Level: 10.Attributes: Constitution +20, Spirit +5.Trait: Dust-Free(Resists dirt and auto-cleans).Requirement: Constitution 50.Description: A fine pair of white silk gloves, unusable by those with insufficient constitution.
These gloves were perfect for Lin Daiyu,
allowing her attributes to spike further.
As for the other bronze-tier rewards, they were underwhelming:
7 sets of women’s clothing,1 box of rouge,1 jade-and-gold hairpin.
Beautiful? Absolutely. Useful? Not at all!
I’m here to summon heroines, not collect fashion accessories!
Wu Chi’s expression darkened further.
Abandoning frugality, he opted for advanced summoning instead.
Void Crystals -100!
“Notification: Obtained Item [Enchanted Smoke Bomb].”
Continue!
Void Crystals -100!
The ink-and-wash scroll appeared once more, glowing brilliantly as clouds and mist swirled around it.
Suddenly,
a figure materialized opposite Wu Chi—
dressed in a crimson wedding gown,
adorned with a phoenix coronet and robes of shimmering red.
Her delicate, charming face carried a hint of astonishment,
her small lips slightly parted,
and her captivating eyes filled with surprise!
“Notification: Hero Summoned—[Qin Keqing]!”
