Wasteland's Only King

Chapter 366 - 92: Wait, Where’s My Damn Smoke Attribute? One Call of "Daddy" and the Protagonist Blushes! (Part 2)

This is the savior of the Blue Star Civilization!

This is the figure revered as a deity by countless people on Blue Star!

But now?

He sits vividly in the front position...

The joys and sorrows between people do not connect.

Bai Zhining and Zhong Muqing felt dazed and excited because of the appearance of Yu Jin.

But Yu Jin.

Was staring at the floating text information in front of him, lost in thought.

[You have killed ’Tier Seven Evolver - Su Chen’!]

[’Strongman’s Spoils’ activated...]

[You have obtained one of his attributes!]

[You have awakened the fifty-second attribute: Smoke!]

Yu Jin doesn’t care about the smoke attribute.

Nowadays, aside from precious attributes like ’Life’, ordinary attributes and abilities don’t catch his eye at all.

What Yu Jin cares about is—

"Is there no cooldown for the ’Strongman’s Spoils’?"

"Logically, it should only activate once a day, right?"

"I just obtained the Life Attribute from Bai Zhining, so how could it activate again right after that..."

Yu Jin concentrated, pulled up his personal panel, and checked the current detailed description of ’Strongman’s Spoils’ once more.

[Cooldown Time: 24 hours]

[Current Status: Cooling down]

Yu Jin fell into deep thought.

"Simulation?"

"Is it because of the simulation?"

"I killed Su Chen in the simulation..."

"In a way, the simulation is a future timeline, and it was only after Su Chen’s death that my consciousness merged with my reality-world line..."

Yu Jin shook his head.

Many issues in the time-space field are logically hard to understand.

"It’s not a big problem."

"It’s a good thing to have gains too."

"Additionally..."

"That guy Su Chen, as expected, is very ’special’ just as I thought."

Yu Jin murmured, looking up into the distance.

His gaze pierced through the night darkness.

Only to see—

Su Chen somehow got hold of a black cloak and was concealing his aura, attempting to evade the guards at the inner and outer city checkpoints.

Yes.

Yu Jin obtained the ’Smoke’ attribute, and correspondingly, Su Chen lost the ’Smoke’ attribute.

This made it impossible for him to infiltrate smoothly, and he was somewhat intercepted by guards.

"However..."

"Dying in the simulation is one thing, but thinking about trying again in reality?"

Yu Jin watched this scene, raising an eyebrow slightly.

The next moment, he guessed Su Chen’s intention.

"Heh—"

Yu Jin shook his head, disinclined to care.

Compared to Su Chen, he was more concerned with the ’Death Lv1’ ability he experimented with in the simulation.

Quite obviously.

This ability wasn’t as powerful as he initially imagined.

Yu Jin thought that after using ’Death Lv1’, regardless of whether it was a simulation or reality, it would directly annihilate the opponent.

But as it turns out?

Death Lv1 does not seem to possess the ability to transcend time-space lines.

"It seems like..."

"It’s quite reasonable?"

"If it could kill across time-space lines, that ability would be too much of a bug."

"Forget it, better not to dwell on these things for now."

"Having taken something from others, making compensation comes first."

Yu Jin snapped back from his thoughts, his gaze landing on Bai Zhining, who was kneeling on one knee not far ahead.

"Lord Bai."

Yu Jin’s voice broke the quiet atmosphere.

"Yu, Lord Yu Jin!"

Bai Zhining was so startled by Yu Jin referring to her as ’Lord’ that she nearly rose from the ground.

"No need for that!"

"Just call me Zhi, Zhining will do..."

"The title of Lord is something Zhining really doesn’t deserve."

Bai Zhining’s voice became weaker and weaker.

"Oh, okay."

"Zhining."

Yu Jin followed the flow.

Upon hearing this.

Somehow, Bai Zhining’s delicate face blushed faintly.

And next to her, Zhong Muqing finally couldn’t hold back.

"Lord Yu Jin!"

"I, I’m Zhong Muqing, Zhining’s best friend and guard!"

"You can call me... Muqing!"

Compared to Bai Zhining, Zhong Muqing’s admiration for Yu Jin is even more ardent, to the point that it wouldn’t be an overstatement to call her a genuinely devoted fan.

Because...

Zhong Muqing’s father was one of the players initially chosen to travel to the A3 Wasteland Planet.

He even—

Became one of the subordinates of Dawn City!

Although Yu Jin’s return to Blue Star did not include her father as one of the 500,000 players, the news was brought to him by a friend he met in Dawn City.

Zhong Muqing learned a lot about Yu Jin and Dawn City from that returning player.

"Muqing?"

On the other side.

Yu Jin murmured this name, his expression slightly altered.

"Forget it, how about I call you Xiaoqing?"

Zhong Muqing heard this, was slightly taken aback, but quickly reacted.

"Sure, sure!"

The young girl, with a smile like a blooming flower.

This boss...

Seems not as difficult to get along with as imagined!

Look at this...

He is even willing to call me ’Xiaoqing’, such a familiar term!

Zhong Muqing’s pretty face flushed a deeper shade of red than Bai Zhining.

"..."

Yu Jin looked at the two women, faces flushed red, and fell into deep thought.

He didn’t understand, but he was greatly shocked.

But come to think of it.

Ever since Dawn City advanced to Dawn Fortress, and he led countless subordinates to battle across the Star River.

It seems he really hasn’t interacted with others this way for a long time, except for Naiya and Nasha in the Tower of the Sky...

"Perhaps occasionally taking a more down-to-earth approach might have its benefits?"

This thought crossed Yu Jin’s mind.

At the same time, he decided—

After bringing all Blue Star compatriots from the Venus server to advance to the High Dimension and returning to Dawn Fortress, he would also make an appearance, to come ’from the masses, to go to the masses’.

"B-boss?"

"Is it okay if I call you that?"

Zhong Muqing’s slightly trembling voice sounded softly.

"Yes, it’s fine!"

Yu Jin agreed very readily.

"Great!"

Zhong Muqing was so happy, she nearly jumped with joy.

"The ground is cold, get up."

"I’ve received your sincerity, staying on your knees like this seems too feudal."

Yu Jin said, gently waving his hand.

Hummm—

A cool night wind flowed in from outside, transforming into an invisible hand that gently lifted Bai Zhining and Zhong Muqing from the ground.

The two women’s faces showed expressions of surprise.

But remembering this was Yu Jin’s doing, they quickly calmed down.

He is a savior of the Blue Star Civilization, achieving this is quite reasonable!

"Boss!"

"How did you..."

"Suddenly appear here?"

"Did you shuttle over from Dawn City?"

"Is it possible to shuttle between different planet servers?"

"Does that mean we might have a chance to visit Dawn City in the future?"

Zhong Muqing’s personality was visibly more lively.

After Yu Jin put down his airs and showed a friendly attitude, this Tier Four girl from Bailu City began to raise questions one after another.

Although Bai Zhining didn’t speak, her eyes revealed clear curiosity and expectation.

"Visit Dawn City?"

"Of course, no problem."

Yu Jin smiled slightly, giving a response.

But,

The Dawn City he referred to was not what Zhong Muqing understood, but the Infinite Dawn City located on Morning Star.

Or one might say,

The Infinite Dawn City, capable of accommodating billions, was precisely what Yu Jin prepared specifically for this batch of Blue Star players from the Venus Wasteland Server.

"My return this time is to fulfill the promise written on the stele."

Yu Jin, looking at the two excited faces, spoke softly.

A simple statement directly touched the hearts of the two women.

Especially Zhong Muqing—

"Dad!"

She couldn’t help but shout.

As soon as these words were spoken,

Yu Jin’s smile froze slightly.

Bai Zhining, on the other hand, was filled with embarrassment, repeatedly offering a low-voiced explanation to Yu Jin.

At the same time,

Outside the City Lord’s Mansion.

Su Chen, who had barely evaded the guards’ surveillance and was sneaking closer under the cover of night, was stunned in place upon hearing that voice shout ’Dad’.

"No!"

"No way!"

Su Chen’s face twisted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His Dao Heart shattered, his eyes widened in rage.

He could no longer bother to hide his presence.

Whiz—

Su Chen exerted his internal attribute energy to the fullest, transforming into a streak of light, and charged towards the City Lord’s Mansion hundreds of meters away!

He never imagined that.

Arriving just a few minutes later than planned in his simulation,

Zhong Muqing, the girl he had set his heart on, next to Bai Zhining, would even call someone else ’Dad’!

More importantly—

Zhong Muqing has already called out ’Dad’.

Could Bai Zhining be far behind?
