Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Fish-Transformed Dragon, Gods and Ghosts Avoidance

An irregularly shaped, oval Chaos Egg appeared before Wang Yi.

[Mutated Chaos Egg +7: Blue Quality. This is a Mutated Chaos Egg. It costs 100 Chaos Energy to hatch a mutated being. It could be an extraordinarily powerful individual or a physically malformed chimeric creature. You cannot predict what will hatch, so do you want to hatch it? Enhance +7: The hatched individual’s abilities will be randomly enhanced.]

”This description tells me nothing!”

After a moment of thought, Wang Yi decided to hatch it anyway.

As 100 Chaos Energy was consumed, the Chaos Egg quickly shattered. In its place stood a long-haired man with a handsome face, sinister eyes, and a cold, aloof expression.

The man wore white robes, a fur cloak, and white gloves, with a Treasure Sword hanging from his waist. He looked like an ancient swordsman, but he possessed a pair of electronic eyes. He cupped his fists toward Wang Yi and said, ”Student Fish-Transformed Dragon greets Teacher!”

”Teacher?”

Wang Yi’s eyes narrowed as he immediately checked the white-robed man’s information panel.

Name: Fish-Transformed Dragon

Occupation: Military Governor

Bound Building: Boutique Armory (Automatically Bound)

Description: Fish-Transformed Dragon was originally an emotionless quality inspection robot for an armory. After wandering with you for many years, he suddenly awakened to sentience. He considers you his teacher and respects you immensely. Through long-term self-study and diligent Cultivation, he bizarrely grew flesh and hair, becoming a mysterious chimeric creature. He possesses unparalleled Inner Strength. He is arrogant and sinisterly cold, devoid of human emotions and desires, and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Skill 1: [Weapons Inspector] +2. Fish-Transformed Dragon has automatically bound himself to the military-class building [Boutique Armory] based on the territory’s needs, and has taken on the role of quality inspector. He adheres to a philosophy of excellence and cannot tolerate ordinary products leaving the armory; any found are immediately destroyed. Furthermore, Fish-Transformed Dragon can intervene in the weapon forging process for custom and independent crafting.

Enhance +1: When Fish-Transformed Dragon is bound to the Boutique Armory, the quality of its melee weapons is significantly improved.

Enhance +2: Weapons destroyed by Fish-Transformed Dragon are automatically converted into the Boutique Armory’s virtual resources, allowing them to be recycled and reducing production costs.

Enhance +1: Inner Strength enhanced to the pinnacle of mastery!

Enhance +2: Inner Strength enhanced to the level of Extraordinary to Saint!

Note 2: All Military Governors possess an exclusive Storage Realm. Fish-Transformed Dragon’s Storage Realm can be used to store materials for crafting melee weapons.

’Another master at the level of Gods and Ghosts Avoidance. Excellent. He and Hai Zhongxian make a perfect pair. Now I have Factory Directors for both the Eastern Depot and the Western Depot—one to manage internal affairs, and one for external! Also, the Feng Yuxiu soldiers know Inner Strength, don’t they? I can assign them to Fish-Transformed Dragon as subordinates!’

Numerous ideas sprang into Wang Yi’s mind.

A moment later, Wang Yi gathered everyone in Eggshell Square and solemnly introduced Hai Zhongxian and Fish-Transformed Dragon.

”I hereby announce the establishment of the Eastern Factory Brocade Guard and the Western Factory Brocade Guard in Eggshell Village! The Eastern Factory Brocade Guard will oversee internal affairs—maintaining law and order, promoting virtue. Their leader is Factory Director Hai Zhongxian! The Western Factory Brocade Guard will handle external affairs—slaying our foes and eliminating threats. Their leader is Factory Director Fish-Transformed Dragon! I hope all of you will cooperate with the East and West Depots to build an even better home together!”

As soon as Wang Yi finished speaking, Yang Qingniu clapped wildly from below and shouted, ”Excellent! My full support! Let’s have a round of applause!”

Wang Yi shot him a look. ”Aren’t you supposed to be serving your sentence in Huangni Village? What are you doing back here kissing ass? Old Hai, send him to Huangni Village. For deserting his post, add another seven days to his term!”

Yang Qingniu flinched and slapped his own face, hastily begging for mercy. ”Boss, I didn’t mean to! I’ll go back right now! Can’t I just go back? Please don’t add more days...”

But the sinister and ruthless Hai Zhongxian had already activated his Supreme Lightweight Skill. With a light tap of his toes, he launched into the sky, seemingly treading on air. He snatched up Yang Qingniu with one large hand and carried him off, soaring high and away until they quickly vanished from sight.

”Without rules, there can be no order. You should all learn a lesson from what happened to Yang Qingniu. Shortly, Jelena will announce a new community pact. I expect all of you to follow it!”

After speaking, Wang Yi left the stage to Jelena and led Fish-Transformed Dragon and Nangong Jin to the Octagonal Cage.

”General Nangong, our food supply is stable now, so you can resume recruiting Octagonal Cage Soldiers. Here’s 3,000 Gold Coins to get you started on recruitment fees.”

As he spoke, Wang Yi had already operated his panel and transferred the 3,000 Gold Coins to Nangong Jin.

He had previously received 5,000 Gold Coins from Zhao Mei, most of which he hadn’t touched. After deducting the 3,000 Gold Coins, he now had 2,448 remaining.

Nangong Jin cupped his fists in acknowledgment and immediately turned to go recruit more soldiers.

Wang Yi stopped him. ”One more thing. From now on, all Feng Yuxiu recruited from the Octagonal Cage are to join the Western Depot, under the command of Fish-Transformed Dragon.”

Fish-Transformed Dragon glanced at a group of Feng Yuxiu training in the Octagonal Cage. ”Ming Jin, An Jin, and Huajin... They are still too weak. My Inner Strength can help them break through and grow stronger.”

Nangong Jin cupped his fists toward Fish-Transformed Dragon and said, ”If that’s the case, then this is good news. From now on, the Feng Yuxiu from the Octagonal Cage will be under General Yu’s charge!”

He then cupped his fists toward Wang Yi. ”My Lord, I plan to dispatch Boyka’s squad to the Giant Crab Sandfield to hunt the Giant Crabs. Do I have your permission?”

”Of course!”

Wang Yi nodded. Killing Sand River Giant Crabs yielded loot. ’It would be best to station a troop there permanently,’ he thought.

A short while later, Wang Yi led Fish-Transformed Dragon and the 56 Feng Yuxiu to the Boutique Armory.

In Wang Yi’s mind, both the Eastern and Western Depots needed their own headquarters. However, Eggshell Village’s infrastructure was still too underdeveloped to construct them. He decided to first station the Western Depot’s members in the Boutique Armory and later build them a temporary outpost in a group of shacks west of the village.

The Boutique Armory was currently piled high with materials Wang Yi hadn’t had time to sort through yet, including bronze, Spiritual Snake Bones, and Spiritual Snake Scales. Now that Fish-Transformed Dragon was bound to the armory and influencing its functions, Wang Yi was eager to see the effects firsthand.

But to Wang Yi’s surprise, the moment Fish-Transformed Dragon arrived, his expression turned cold. He lightly raised a hand and unleashed his Inner Strength, which was at the level of Gods and Ghosts Avoidance. The many weapons on the Boutique Armory’s display racks immediately began to vibrate, emitting a crisp, ringing sound.

”The quality is abysmal. An eyesore. Shatter!”

Fish-Transformed Dragon spoke softly, slowly clenching his fist. CRACK! SHATTER! CRUNCH...

All the weapons on the display racks instantly disintegrated, and not even the Sha River Overlord Spear was an exception. Some shattered into countless fragments, while others broke into a dozen pieces.

With another wave of his hand, Fish-Transformed Dragon made all the fragments and shards disappear. They had been converted into the Boutique Armory’s virtual resources.

”Teacher, with me here, every weapon produced by the Boutique Armory will be a masterpiece of the highest quality!”

”Excellent! I’ll grant you access to all our resources! You’ll be in charge here, and you can also customize weapons and design your own, correct?”

”Yes!”

”That’s fantastic! Why don’t you start by trying to arm these men of yours?”

”I can do that.”

Fish-Transformed Dragon immediately got to work. His Inner Strength was so powerful he could manipulate objects from a distance. He quickly used a Spiritual Snake Bone to craft a ”Jade Bone Sword,” which, to Wang Yi’s surprise, was a blue-quality weapon with two special effects: [Sharpness] and [Thorn Spirit].

What delighted Wang Yi even more was that all of the Feng Yuxiu were able to equip the Jade Bone Sword!

”As members of the Western Factory Brocade Guard, their equipment must be exquisite. I will personally tailor weapon cases for them, fully equipped with flying knives, sharp swords, long spears, fast sabers, steel needles, and iron chains, ensuring they are prepared for any combat scenario.”

Fish-Transformed Dragon worked as he spoke, and Wang Yi, watching from the side, could only marvel at his professionalism. ’It would be perfect if I could get these Brocade Guards some magnificent, stylish uniforms, too,’ he thought.

While Wang Yi was watching Fish-Transformed Dragon show off his skills...

「Meanwhile, at Qingliang Temple, northwest of Kaiyuan County.」

Inside the main hall of the Red Tiger Camp’s garrison, Lu Aqi, who had just returned from Black Stone Mountain, was about to take a sip of tea when a man in green robes materialized before him out of thin air.

”Lu Aqi, the two types of elixirs you offered are precisely what the Prince requires. Here is a secret letter for you!”
