Wasteland's Only King-Chapter 92 - 88: Hope of Returning to Blue Star! Tier Eleven Refugees?

Chapter 92: Chapter 88: Hope of Returning to Blue Star! Tier Eleven Refugees?

City Lord’s Mansion.

Yu Jin watched Yin Yao’s fading silhouette.

He lowered his head and glanced at the ’Attribute Activation Stone’ in his hand.

This senior, her eyes still red with tears, still refused his small token of ’thanks’.

She said—

No reward without merit.

"Really no merit?"

Yu Jin sat in the city lord’s seat, murmuring to himself.

Yin Yao’s rebirth meant much, for him, and for Blue Star.

If not for Yin Yao’s continual ’soft meals’, he’d probably never have broken through to Tier Nine before crossing over.

If he didn’t break into Tier Nine, he couldn’t purify Oumuamua’s 89% pollution. Blue Star might’ve been thoroughly polluted, even destroyed—no matter how invincible Yu Jin became in the Wasteland, it wouldn’t change this fact.

If he didn’t break into Tier Nine, the system might not update, leaving him unable to exceed the Tier Nine limit, unable to keep leveling up.

After all, the root of the update was—

The reward for ’promoting Tier Three’ couldn’t be granted.

Yu Jin suspected, in the timeline where Yin Yao didn’t get reborn, when he logged into "Wasteland", he’d likely only be Tier Six or Tier Seven...

"Phew—"

Yu Jin exhaled a long breath.

"Brother Tongzi, since the Coordinate Imprint can’t get back to Blue Star, is there any way to fix that?"

Yu Jin asked internally.

This was the answer he’d been wanting since he first woke up.

[Searching...]

[Search complete!]

[Due to unknown rules on the A3 Wasteland Planet and nearby star systems, ’Coordinate Imprint’ teleportation fails.]

[Solution—]

[1. Raise Evolver tier; the higher the tier, the stronger each attribute ability, increasing the chance of breaking A3 planet rule constraints!]

[2. Raise ’Coordinate Imprint’ skill level; higher skill level increases the chance of breaking A3 planet rule constraints!]

[3. Raise Sanctuary City level; the higher the sanctuary city level, the weaker the rule restriction by the A3 planet within city territory!]

Yu Jin glanced at the system’s reply, raising his eyebrows slightly.

He hadn’t expected that Brother Tongzi would not only answer, but offer three solutions at once.

This was hope for returning to Blue Star!

"Good job, Tongzi!"

Yu Jin praised lightly, and began to weigh the feasibility of each plan.

Level up tiers?

This was what he planned to do anyway.

Although Yu Jin was already Tier Nine, ranked first on the A3 planet, the higher the tier, the more confidence.

After all, "Wasteland" had clearly told him that above A3 planet there’s a more advanced ’Star System Wasteland’ server.

"Level 100 account landing on Star System Wasteland?"

Not impossible.

Raise ’Coordinate Imprint’ level?

Yu Jin skipped it directly.

Raise Sanctuary City level?

Swoosh—

Yu Jin’s thoughts moved.

A semi-transparent screen appeared in front of him.

This screen wasn’t from the system, but from the "Wasteland" game itself.

[A3 Planet Evolver Tier Ranking: No.1]

[A3 Planet Sanctuary City Level Ranking: No.20001]

[A3 Planet Player Comprehensive Ranking: No.111]

Ranked twenty thousand and one, truly glaring.

Ranked one hundred and eleven in comprehensive stats, probably dragged down by the low city level.

A moment earlier.

When he’d sat on the city lord’s seat, information about Sanctuary City upgrades had automatically flooded his mind.

Sanctuary City level depends on two factors—

1. Number of subordinate cities.

2. Number and tier of subordinates/Evolvers.

Subordinate cities refers to sanctuary cities under Dawn City’s rule, like affiliated towns.

And the number and tier of Evolvers differ by sanctuary city level.

Dawn City was currently only Level 0.

For Level 1 Sanctuary City, you need at least three subordinate cities, two hundred thousand subordinates, and two thousand Evolvers—including at least three Tier Four Evolvers (not counting the city lord).

Yu Jin wasn’t sure what Level 2 Sanctuary City required; he’d have to get Dawn City to Level 1 to find out.

For Yu Jin, this was a huge constraint.

After all...

If there were no limits on subordinates and Evolver numbers—

Yu Jin wouldn’t even need to develop "Dawn City", and could go full ’Lone Wolf’ style.

At Tier Nine, Yu Jin was confident he could beat down the Wasteland solo!

If Tier Nine wasn’t enough—

Then Tier Ten, Tier Eleven, Tier Twelve!

For personal power, max-level Yu Jin could crush it.

"From the look of it..."

"’Wasteland’ isn’t so much about apocalypse survival, but more like a Lord’s contest?"

"The refugees think it’s apocalypse survival, because the Wasteland is full of danger and they’re too weak to fight back."

"But actually..."

"Once you reach a certain tier, there aren’t that many threats on the Wasteland. High-Tier Mutant Beasts/Infected Bodies are strong, but rare."

"From White Rock City to Dawn City, I barely saw any High-Tier Mutant Beasts/Infected Bodies."

"By contrast, only city lords are the real players at the table in ’Wasteland’?"

Yu Jin analyzed the information, forming his conclusion.

Before this.

He actually had a lingering doubt in his mind.

In the future scenes seen by Yin Yao/Yin Shanhai, he was a Tier Nine Evolver, Dawn City Lord, and had also conquered over a thousand Sanctuary Cities.

Yu Jin wasn’t surprised to be a Tier Nine Evolver and Dawn City Lord.

But why ’conquer a thousand sanctuary cities’? He’d often wondered.

Now?

After the timelines converged, that doubt was finally resolved.

At the same time.

Yu Jin’s plans for the future grew clearer.

"Keep leveling up, and aggressively develop Dawn City!"

"Spam troops, push forward, no eating beef!"

"I need personal power invincibility and Dawn City invincibility!"

"Grab both, make both strong!"

"Set a small goal first..."

"Sweep through A308 Area, conquer all sanctuary cities inside!"

"Clear out all Mutant Beasts and Infected Bodies in A308 Area, especially High-Tier ones, farm the system for crystals to level up..."
