Wasteland's Only King-Chapter 104 - 94: Heaven-Defying "Cause and Effect" Attribute! Rewriting the Rules, Reverse Cause and Effect! (2/3)

Chapter 104: Chapter 94: Heaven-Defying "Cause and Effect" Attribute! Rewriting the Rules, Reverse Cause and Effect! (2/3)

"It actually doesn’t work?"

Dawn City.

Yu Jin stared at the crystals in front of him, seeing no change, no "vanishing into thin air," his brows furrowed into a tight line.

After testing with "beast meat," Yu Jin started distributing crystals to his subordinates again.

But...

The crystals didn’t disappear.

"Why?"

"Is there some cooldown?"

Yu Jin asked the system in his mind.

Ever since the 2.0 update, even though it wasn’t spelled out, Brother Tongzi’s "whatever you wish, it’s done" capability had been pretty damn impressive.

[Searching...]

[Search complete!]

[In the short term, intentionally distributing ’excess’ resources to subordinates for speculative purposes cannot be recognized by the system and will not be rewarded.]

The system’s explanation made Yu Jin raise his eyebrows a bit.

Though Brother Tongzi didn’t give a direct answer, Yu Jin could vaguely figure it out.

The reason crystals vanish and cross an infinite distance, ending up on Blue Star, is because the system sees it as "resource distribution to subordinates."

But if he deliberately distributes extra crystals, it’s not acknowledged.

Crystals can disappear or even show up faraway on Blue Star essentially because Brother Tongzi stretches the rules, treating the non-transmigrated Environmental Protection Club members as subordinates too.

"What a pity."

Yu Jin let out a soft sigh.

If not for this, he could keep exploiting the loophole, air-dropping resources to his Blue Star compatriots!

"But overall, at least I discovered this in time..."

"At least, once the first batch of crystals is used up by subordinates, distributing more should get properly recognized."

Yu Jin came up with a new plan.

Then,

He pulled out the A308 Area map, starting to plan tomorrow’s "expedition."

The night felt endless.

Inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

Naiya tirelessly massaged Yu Jin, occasionally answering the questions he tossed out.

The millions of Moore Star People probably couldn’t imagine their supreme queen spending all her Tier Eight stamina on Yu Jin’s shoulders and arms...

Neil, meanwhile, sat quietly in a corner of the Council Hall, absorbing crystals while acting as a guard.

Late in the night.

Yu Jin finalized his plan, got up from his spot, and walked into the depths of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Technically, as a Tier Nine, he didn’t need to sleep anymore.

But...

He couldn’t do crystal breakthroughs until Dawn City was upgraded to Level 1.

"If I remember right, when I was buying beast meat, I saw a bunch of big beds in the shop..."

Yu Jin muttered, heading off.

Naiya followed closely behind, step for step. When she heard the words "big bed," a shy blush crept up on her delicate doll-like face.

Even though she’d arrived on A3 Planet a whole one hundred and fifty years ago.

She led the Moore Star People, built up Naiya City to Level 8 on the wasteland, fought through more than a thousand large and small battles.

But...

That kind of "battle," Naiya hadn’t even seen, let alone experienced.

Before transmigrating to the wasteland,

Naiya was just a sixteen-year-old rookie loli.

In front of the millions of Moore Star People, Naiya had Tier Eight Evolver strength and the halo of Naiya City Lord.

But around Yu Jin...

Tier Eight meant nothing. Naiya City Lord became Yu City Lord’s personal maid.

When all the halos fall away, Naiya wasn’t much different from that shy loli from 150 years ago.

...

...

Dawn City, City Lord’s Mansion core zone.

[Beep beep——!]

[You’ve purchased ’Super-Luxury Ten-Meter Bed’!]

[Quantity: 1]

[Points deducted: 800,000]

[Points balance: 260,000,000...]

The mechanical prompt sounded.

Swish——

The ten-meter luxury bed appeared out of thin air.

"Nice!"

Yu Jin walked around the big bed, nodded in satisfaction.

Spending 800,000 points on a bed obviously wasn’t for "impart."

Clearly, this was no ordinary bed.

[Super-Luxury Ten-Meter Bed]

[Technology traits——]

[1. Can withstand physical impact up to Tier Seven]

[2. Constant temperature system, vibration mode, water bed mode...]

[Extraordinary traits——]

[1. On activation, automatically generates energy shield; within ten meters radius, reduces damage taken by 30%, so you can absorb crystals with peace of mind]

[2. Increases crystal absorption efficiency by 10%, boosts new attribute awakening chance by 1% while on the bed]

[3. Resting on the bed slightly suppresses pollution level]

"Physical impact" and "water bed mode" and all that, Yu Jin couldn’t care less.

What he really cared about was "crystal absorption efficiency +10%" and "new attribute awakening chance +1%."

"Speaking of new attributes..."

Yu Jin remembered that he still had quite a few Attribute Activation Stones unused.

"It’s still a while before dawn, and I gotta wait for Dawn City’s upgrade for crystal breakthroughs, so..."

"Why not pop a few Attribute Activation Stones?"

Yu Jin suddenly perked up.

He plopped down on the super-luxury ten-meter bed.

At the bedside, Naiya hung her head low, cheeks flushing even deeper.

"But..."

"That kind of thing... How do you even start?"

Naiya had the ’Prophecy’ attribute, but she wasn’t all-knowing. This, at least, was her absolute blind spot.

Clang——!

Clang, clang——!

The crisp sounds made Naiya jump.

The petite one-point-five-meter body instinctively shrank a bit.

Next second.

When Naiya finally summoned the courage to look up, she was completely stunned by the scene before her eyes.

Yu Jin really was doing something extremely... "exposed."

But what he exposed...

Was a neat pile—a full thirty Attribute Activation Stones!

Naiya’s cherry lips parted unconsciously, again.

Attribute Activation Stones, such godly items, weren’t even for sale in the Level 8 Refuge City shop!

The only known way Naiya had to get Attribute Activation Stones now was through ranking rewards in the Wasteland game.
