[Chaos Egg: Purple Quality. Consumes 100 Chaos Energy to hatch a highly skilled maintenance technician for you. This technician is a responsible robot capable of repairing most mechanical equipment, powered vehicles, and more. It will possess three skills, but please note, this robot requires charging to work.]

[Mushroom Farm Construction Drawings: Can only be used in non-open-air environments within your territory, such as caves or dungeons. Upon use, a Mushroom Farm will be constructed. The farm operates autonomously, requiring no maintenance. It automatically produces various edible mushrooms based on the terrain (requires manual harvesting). It also improves humid conditions, purifies the air, and increases your territory’s environmental index.]

’A Maintenance Robot is definitely useful. With the Energy Lighthouse, I can easily charge it. The Construction Drawings are decent, too. Too bad my territory doesn’t have any caves or dungeons...’

Wang Yi hatched the Purple Chaos Egg. A few moments later, a cylindrical robot with four mechanical arms appeared before him.

This cylindrical robot was the "highly skilled maintenance technician." Its name was Jiba, and it possessed three skills: [Finger Welding], [Hand-Crafted Parts], and [Scanning Error].

"Jiba, reporting for duty, Master!"

The robot saluted Wang Yi.

Wang Yi’s expression darkened. The Maintenance Robot’s abilities were impressive, but its name was a bit ridiculous.

Next, Wang Yi began opening his Blind Boxes.

He currently had two Chaos Blind Boxes: the Purple Blind Box he’d just gotten from the hidden Treasure Chest, and a Green Blind Box from the C61 ruins.

As far as Wang Yi was concerned, Li Bolili had given him that Green Blind Box just to mess with him. However, even a Green Blind Box was an absolute prize in his hands. If his luck was good, he could still pull something incredible from it.

"The fact that you’ve ended up in my hands proves we’re fated. I’ll honor you as a proper Blind Box and bow nine times. You’d better not disappoint me!"

As he spoke, Wang Yi clasped his hands and bowed to the Green Blind Box. After bowing nine times, he opened it. To his surprise, fifteen options popped up.

====

One: Watermelon Knife (White, Enhanced +1)

Two: Chaos Crystal Stone (Green, Enhanced +2)

Three: Ping-Pong Ball (White, Enhanced +3)

Four: Small Money Bag (White, Enhanced +4)

Five: Chaos Egg (White, Enhanced +5)

Six: Semi-Automatic Washing Machine (White, Enhanced +6)

Seven: Black and White TV (Green, Enhanced +7)

Eight: Game Console (White, Enhanced +8)

Nine: Chunky Leather Shoes (White, Enhanced +9)

Ten: Sewing Machine (White, Enhanced +10)

Eleven: Loom (Green, Enhanced +11)

Twelve: Bicycle (Green, Enhanced +12)

Thirteen: Circus Costume (White, Enhanced +13)

Fourteen: Bicycle (Green, Enhanced +14)

Fifteen: Lord Skill Book (Green, Enhanced +15)

====

Wang Yi was stunned!

Fifteen options!

What a massive haul!

’Six Green and nine White items, and a bicycle showed up twice! Damn it, who needs a bicycle? I’m choosing the Lord Skill Book!’

After Wang Yi made his choice, a green-covered skill book appeared before him, upon which a golden light flashed fifteen times in succession.

[Lord Skill Book +15: Consumes 100 Lord Experience. Upon use, you will randomly obtain one Green-quality Lord Skill, which will be enhanced 15 times.]

’Enhanced fifteen times! Jelena’s Small Fireball reached a six-meter diameter after being enhanced just six times. With fifteen enhancements, won’t my skill be completely off the charts?’

Wang Yi pounced on the skill book like a starving dog, using it immediately as if afraid someone would snatch it away. A golden light flashed around him, and a system notification chimed. "Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained the Lord Skill [Fantasy Avatar]!"

====

’Holy shit, this is insane! The Monkey King as my Fantasy Avatar!’

Wang Yi thought to himself that he was going to be invincible.

’As long as I have 10,000,000 Chaos Energy to use the Ultimate Seventh Gear of [Fantasy Avatar], I can summon nine flying, Celestial God Level combat units, supported by the One Hundred Thousand Celestial Soldiers and Generals and the Four Heavenly Kings. Wouldn’t that be apocalyptic?’

’This skill is certainly powerful, but the Chaos Energy consumption has also increased. All things considered, First and Second Gear are the most cost-effective. For just 100 Chaos Energy, I can summon a King-level combat avatar. Third Gear is decent, too. But starting at Fourth Gear, the cost skyrockets to 100,000 Chaos Energy, and all it adds is visual fluff. Pointless. Fifth and Sixth Gear are even more pointless. And Seventh Gear is just completely broken...’

Wang Yi checked his status panel; he still had 114,004 Chaos Energy. He figured that sticking to the Third Gear avatar would be enough for everyday use. But if he could, saving up ten million Chaos Energy would be like having an ultimate move in his back pocket, a great safety net.

’I burn through Chaos Energy so fast. I need it for Refining Mountains and Rivers, for upgrading the Heart of Chaos, and for my avatar’s ultimate moves. Thankfully, I can gamble on Chaos Crystal Stones from Blind Boxes. Anyone else with a skill this powerful would have to just let it sit there, completely useless...’

Wang Yi sighed with emotion, then moved on to the Purple Blind Box.

"Come on, Purple Blind Box," he muttered, "look at your little green buddy. It was so generous, spitting out an Enhanced +15 item just like that. You’re two whole tiers higher than it, so don’t let it show you up!"

After giving the Purple Blind Box a heartfelt pep talk, Wang Yi repeated his ritual of nine bows before slowly opening it.

====

Ding! One Box, Many Openings Talent activated. Calculating 3 results for the current Chaos Blind Box opening.

Ding! Box Opening Enhancement Talent activated. Enhancing items.

One: Technology Scroll (Blue, Enhanced +1)

Two: Rat Poison (Purple, Enhanced +2) 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Three: Exquisite Ancestral Chamber Pot (Purple, Enhanced +3)

====

Wang Yi’s expression froze solid, remaining unchanged for two full minutes.

’This is so disappointing! Only three options, and the Enhanced +3 item is an ancestral chamber pot! Does this thing have an obsession with giving me pots? Is this supposed to be an antique? Can I sell it for money or what? What kind of ancestor passes down something like this? There’s no way I’m picking it...’

Wang Yi considered that if he chose the ancestral chamber pot, based on his experience with the Toilet House, the system might enhance it into something like an "Ancestral Chamber Pot House." That would be the best-case scenario. But what if it just turned into eight ancestral chamber pots instead?
