Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 148: Chapter 142: Asking the Great Saint to Lend a Righteous Hand (Part 2)

In the main camp of King Dongsheng, Xue Shentian’s face lit up. He let out a deep sigh of relief and roared, ”Hold the line, everyone! Reinforcements have arrived! Prepare to counterattack!”

At this time, the men by his side were either trusted aides or Death Warriors. Meanwhile, the front lines were being held up by high-level combat units hatched from Chaos Eggs, including Martial Heroes, Heavy-Armored Warriors, Assassins, Fierce Generals, and Reconnaissance Soldiers.

These hatched units were powerful, but overall, Xue Shentian’s army of 100,000 was still caught in a bitter struggle. The common soldiers were suffering heavy casualties, and the situation could be described as grim.

The arrival of the ”little train” undoubtedly lifted Xue Shentian’s spirits. After issuing a few quick commands, he hastily led a group of his trusted aides out of the camp to welcome them. Seeing the man opposite him wearing Golden Armor, wielding an Iron Rod, and adorned with a golden crown, his heart skipped a beat. ’It really is the fucking Monkey King!’ he thought.

When Wang Yi saw King Dongsheng, he was also quite surprised.

He could see Xue Shentian’s character information and learned that he actually possessed the S-Class Talent [Real-time Intelligence]!

This was the second Player with an S-Class Talent that Wang Yi had encountered. The first was the Qixia Temple Master of Qixia Mountain, Ye Qitian, whose S-Class Talent was [Infinite Army].

’One is Shentian, the other is Qitian... Damn, did the idiot system give them S-Class Talents just because they have awesome names? Ye Qitian is one thing; he’s just a Temple Master. But this guy is a Prince with real power. With this status and this Talent, he’s got a god-tier starting hand!’

As Wang Yi mused silently, he didn’t dare to underestimate Xue Shentian. However, Xue Shentian looked rather disheveled at the moment. He was covered in filth and reeked to high heaven. Wang Yi had been about to step forward and shake his hand, but he couldn’t help but pinch his nose and step back.

Xue Shentian looked a little embarrassed. ”I have a hippopotamus mount,” he said. ”It’s tough, can take a hit, and is fast on its feet. But it has two downsides: one, it eats a lot, and two, it poops a lot. Hippos are a weird species. The moment one starts to go, its tail spins at high speed, churning its shit and urine into a fine spray. Yes, these are flecks of shit on me. But we’re in the middle of a war, so I haven’t had time to clean up. Please, forgive my appearance.”

Wang Yi took two steps away from Xue Shentian and said, ”Brother Xue, you don’t need to give me a biology lesson. I’m here on a paid rescue mission. Li Mingli told me you have Chaos Blind Boxes...”

Xue Shentian was sharp and immediately understood. He quickly opened his Storage Item and took out eight blind boxes, though they were all green. He said, ”I do have some of these rather useless blind boxes. I’ll give them all to you, Great Saint. Please, take action at once. My soldiers are dying every second. If you can turn the tide, there will be a generous reward!”

Seeing the pile of blind boxes, Wang Yi was ecstatic.

’As expected of a Prince. So extravagant, handing over eight blind boxes just like that.’

”Alright, the situation is urgent, so I won’t waste any more time. I’ll lead my troops into the fray!”

With that, Wang Yi immediately collected the Green Blind Boxes in front of him, internally shouting with glee.

To others, these eight blind boxes weren’t much, nor were they worth a lot of money. But to Wang Yi, eight blind boxes meant eight chances to strike it rich.

But Xue Shentian spoke again, ”Great Saint, the enemy is not to be trifled with. Take this Scroll. Please, be careful.”

As he spoke, Xue Shentian handed over an Intelligence Scroll.

It was one he had just recently obtained.

”An Intelligence Scroll?”

Wang Yi’s heart tightened. He cautiously took the Intelligence Scroll, and only after confirming there were no shit flecks on it did he open it to read.

====

Intel 1: Among the attacking enemies is a female Lord Player with the A-Class Talent [Mobile Camp]. She has brought a [goblin Hovel] camp and can recruit troops at any time.

Intel 2: Among the attacking enemies is a male Adventurer Player who has class-changed into [Dogman God]. His combat power is immense. Please proceed with caution.

”Huh, they’re all Players from the Western Continent!”

Wang Yi made a mental note of this, gave Xue Shentian a cupped-fist salute, and departed.

A moment later, Li Mingli teleported next to Xue Shentian and said, ”For a Prince, you’re acting quite humble.”

Xue Shentian replied, ”He’s the Great Saint! How could I dare act arrogant? Being humble and generous now to get on his good side is definitely the right move. And don’t forget, he still has that Spiritual Artifact, the rice cooker!”

”True! I noticed this Great Saint seems very interested in Chaos Blind Boxes. I wonder if he has a related Talent or some special use for them!”

”The blind boxes are useless, so it’s no loss giving them to him!”

Xue Shentian waved his hand dismissively.

Thanks to his [Real-time Intelligence] Talent, he had found many Chaos Blind Boxes. He had opened quite a few, both high and low quality, but the returns were mediocre. Eventually, he couldn’t even be bothered to open the green ones. If he could use a mere batch of Green Blind Boxes to secure Wang Yi’s help and improve their relationship at the same time, he considered it a great deal.

Meanwhile, Wang Yi had already begun to set up his emergency defenses.

The ”little train” was positioned beside Xue Shentian’s main camp, forming a defensive line. A vast horde of goblins was already charging toward them.

Fish-Transformed Dragon rode his Jade Jiaolong to the front line. With a surge of his Inner Strength, a large number of goblins thirty meters away began to float into the air as if they were in outer space.

A group of King Dongsheng’s soldiers who were fighting them cried out in alarm, stunned by the bizarre sight.

”What are you all waiting for? Get out of the way!”

Fish-Transformed Dragon roared, and the King Dongsheng’s soldiers, as if waking from a dream, had the sense to scatter to the sides.

At that moment, twenty armored off-road vehicles emerged side-by-side, plowing directly into the goblin army.

Countless goblin soldiers were sent flying or crushed, and their screams echoed across the field.

The armored off-road vehicles weren’t equipped with weapons, but right then, on that wide-open battlefield, they were powerful weapons in themselves.

The Feng Yuxiu driving the off-road vehicle floored the gas pedal!

The twenty armored vehicles were like a sharp knife, swiftly stabbing into the heart of the battle.

Behind the armored cars, a large number of Feng Yuxiu riding Jade Jiaolongs charged in pursuit, wielding Swords and Sabers. Further back were the Taisen Squad and the Boyka squad, like battalions of infantry.

Hai Pei also charged out, driving a Grizzly Tank.

”The reinforcements are here! Charge!”

”Kill them all! Crush them!”

”KILL!”

Many of King Dongsheng’s soldiers roared and followed the vehicle convoy in their charge.

In truth, the goblin soldiers were weak. Their direct combat strength was far inferior to King Dongsheng’s well-equipped army; they relied purely on overwhelming numbers.

In front of the ’little train’, a group of Leonidas units stood in neat formation. Hai Zhongxian led the Eastern Depot Assassins, standing atop the vehicles. The Beastman Lady, Duruka, drove out a Crossbow Machine Carriage. Man Datou, Zhang Lengzi, Yang Qingshan, the Maintenance Robot, and others were also there.

They weren’t responsible for charging, but were the defensive line, tasked with eliminating any enemy that dared to approach the ’little train’.

Wang Yi had also rushed to the front lines by now.

’An army of a million, a sea of goblins, and a Mobile Camp in the rear constantly recruiting more. But the goblins are just cannon fodder; they pose no immediate threat to me. The things I need to deal with right away are that Giant Dragon, the heavy fire-support units in the rear, and the Players.’

At that moment, Wang Yi looked up at the Red Giant Dragon in the sky.

This Giant Dragon could fly, making it highly mobile. Its Dragon Flame was powerful and could easily tear through the defensive lines of King Dongsheng’s army. If not for the large number of Crossbow Carriages constantly firing at it, this single Giant Dragon could have devoured the entire Prince’s army.

Its Dragon Flame was powerful enough to threaten his own Octagonal Cage Soldiers.

Furthermore, behind the goblin army, there were also Grizzly Tanks, armored off-road vehicles, and Motorcycles. The armored vehicles and Motorcycles could be ignored for now, but there were five Grizzly Tanks in total, firing intermittently. They were fire support points that needed to be taken out as soon as possible.

Of course, the even bigger threat was the Players behind the goblin army.

Players could use items and generally had hidden tricks up their sleeves. They were the most unpredictable factor on the battlefield, so the sooner they were eliminated, the better.

After a brief observation, Wang Yi said in a low voice, ”Old Mo, infiltrate their rear and start assassinating!”

”Yes!”

A reply came from the void. Wielding the [Vanishing Technique] and [Night Travel Technique], Qin Mo went unnoticed as he slipped away to carry out his assassination mission.

Wang Yi then turned his gaze back to the Red Giant Dragon. After the ’little train’ had appeared, the dragon had kept its distance, not daring to get close. It had now flown to the other side of the battlefield, focusing on bullying King Dongsheng’s ground forces.

’So what if it can fly? Can it escape the pursuit of the Monkey King?!’

Wang Yi snorted lightly. With a thought, he consumed 1,000 points of Chaos Energy and activated Third Gear [Fantasy Avatar].
