”Twelve items, twelve enhancements!”

Wang Yi’s eyes went wide.

It was the first time he’d ever seen so many options.

And there was no shortage of good stuff.

He carefully examined the selection window, thinking this was a tough choice. The Enhance +8 first-stage soul-cutting blade was definitely a great item. In his hands, it might even be a superweapon comparable to the Crossbow Machine Carriage.

He also really liked the Body-Forging Pill—nothing was better than making himself stronger. It was just a shame the pill had only been enhanced once.

The Primordial Spirit Liquid was probably a great item too; maybe it could also be used to strengthen him.

And there was even a generator!

If he chose that, his territory might leap into the electrical age in a single step!

The Enhance +10 hairdryer was most likely incredibly powerful as well.

Wang Yi thought for a moment before finally choosing the Enhance +12 Chaos Egg. After all, it was Blue, the highest quality among the twelve items, and it also had the most enhancements.

Once he had the Chaos Egg in hand, its Attribute Information appeared.

[Chaos Egg +12: Blue Quality. Consumes 100 Chaos Energy to hatch an unflinchingly loyal Assassin subordinate for you. This subordinate will possess two skills.]

”Unflinchingly loyal! And an Assassin, at that. This is great!”

Overjoyed, Wang Yi hatched the Chaos Egg. An old man with grizzled hair appeared before him, kneeling on one knee. ”This old servant, Qin Mo, pays his respects to Master!”

”Please, get up!”

Wang Yi helped the old man up. He had a plain face, a short and slightly stooped frame, and the simple, honest look of an old farmer. He wouldn’t stand out in a crowd at all.

But his Attribute Information was truly extraordinary.

====

Name: Qin Mo +12

Profession: Assassin

Skill 1: [Stealth Technique] +4, enhanced into [Vanishing Technique]. Upon activation, conceals one’s aura to become unnoticeable, allowing for optical camouflage, evasion of detection, and ignoring Defense Tower locks.

Skill 2: [Ten Steps One Sword] +8, enhanced into [Hundred-Step Flying Sword Triple Slash]. Qin Mo has refined a Sword Pill, which is stored in his Dantian. Upon activation, the Sword Pill is released, performing a Hundred-step Flying Sword attack that can slash three times consecutively (Effective range is 100 meters; each time the Sword Pill is deployed, it can strike three times in a row).

Description: Qin Mo is your Death Warrior and is utterly loyal to you. He is psychologically warped, lacks a social moral compass, and is cold and taciturn. He will unconditionally obey your every command. He was originally a martial artist, but for some unknown reason, his techniques have become profoundly mystical.

”Holy crap. It took a martial artist and yanked him all the way up to the level of Cultivation! He even has a Hundred-step Flying Sword!”

Wang Yi was ecstatic. This Assassin before him had the looks of a tractor but the engine of a Ferrari. He was an absolutely overpowered being.

A moment later, Wang Yi left the Eggshell House with the farmer-like Qin Mo. Gegeda and the Combat Chicken Squad followed behind them.

After walking less than a hundred meters, Wang Yi stopped. He was going to build the Huanghua Fishery now.

The Scroll unfurled, a white light flashed, the ground sank rapidly, and Clear Water materialized out of thin air...

In the span of just a dozen breaths, the ten-mu Huanghua Fishery was complete. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary fish pond, nothing special.

But immediately after, Wang Yi built the Sunlight Fishing Tower right next to it.

The Sunlight Fishing Tower indeed looked like a tower crane. It had a steel structure with a climbing ladder, a driver’s cabin twenty meters off the ground, and a steel jib with a wire rope hanging from it. At the end of the rope was a fishing scoop shaped like a excavator’s bucket.

One could tell at a glance that this fishing tower, a mutated enhancement of a fishing rod, didn’t hook fish—it scooped them!

”The Sunlight Fishing Tower paired with the Huanghua Fishery... it’s a perfect match!”

Wang Yi looked up at the Sunlight Fishing Tower, extremely pleased.

By now, many villagers had been drawn over. They were no longer surprised by the god-like methods of the Roasted Chicken Immortal. They simply stood to the side to watch the spectacle, content to ooh and aah in amazement.

Boss Li and the other sandpit workers happened to be delivering sand, so they also ran over to watch, clicking their tongues in wonder.

Seeing the growing crowd, Wang Yi stood on high ground and announced loudly, ”Everyone, listen up! I have an announcement. This fish pond is called the Huanghua Fishery, and it will be an important source of food for our territory. No one is allowed to cause trouble here! And this man...”

He pointed to Qin Mo beside him. ”Let me introduce you all. This is Old Mo. From now on, he will be the manager of the Huanghua Fishery!”

CLAP, CLAP, CLAP...

The sound of applause actually broke out.

The crowd began to murmur among themselves.

”Old Mo? Who’s that? Which village is he from? I’ve never seen him before!”

”He must be the boss’s confidant, to be made manager on the spot!”

”He looks like an honest man. He should be easy to get along with!”

The crowd guessed at Qin Mo’s identity. On the surface, he was the manager of the Huanghua Fishery, but no one could have known he was actually a super Assassin!

”The Huanghua Fishery has just been established and needs employees. I hereby announce that the Huanghua Fishery is now recruiting workers from all over! Anyone interested, report to me. There will be a three-day trial period. If you pass, you’ll be hired officially and become my first batch of contract workers. You’ll enjoy all the benefits!”

”I’ll sign up!”

”Me too!”

”Can you let me try?”

”What’s a contract worker?”

The villagers reacted enthusiastically, with many raising their hands to sign up.

Wang Yi casually picked three who looked agreeable and said, ”You three can try out first. Everyone else, stand back and watch from a distance. I’m about to show you just how amazing the Huanghua Fishery is!”

Next, under Wang Yi’s command, the super Assassin Qin Mo climbed up the fishing tower. He would be in charge of operating it.

Operating the fishing tower was extremely simple, and Qin Mo quickly got the hang of it. He controlled the fishing scoop, lowered it into the fishery, gently dug in, and lifted it back up. He then dumped the contents onto the bank. SPLASH! A small pile of flopping yellow croakers appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The scales of the small yellow croakers were golden, and they were all about twenty centimeters long.

The three trial employees immediately rushed forward. Lacking professional tools, they grabbed three back-baskets and scrambled to gather the small yellow croakers.

Zhang Xiaohu, Yang Xiaobao, Li Hua’er from Huangni Village, and other older and younger kids rushed forward to help for free, grabbing the fish. Giggling and laughing, the scene was quite cheerful.

”Shoo, shoo, you kids, don’t cause trouble! Adults, watch your children! This is a production area, don’t let the kids get too close. We need to prevent accidents...”

Wang Yi went forward and shooed away the crowd of older and younger children. He directed the scene on the spot, taking stock of the catch.

In less than three minutes, all the small yellow croakers were packed into the back-baskets—a total of 325 fish, weighing around 160 jin.

Just then, the fishing scoop descended again. SPLASH! Another pile of small yellow croakers was dumped onto the bank.

The three workers got busy again. After counting, this second bucket contained a total of 350 small yellow croakers!

Then came the third scoop, the fourth scoop...

More and more small yellow croakers appeared, filling one basket after another. The crowd watched on, exclaiming how novel it all was.
