Wasteland's Only King

Chapter 237: Chapter 29: One Million Subordinates Tour the City! Yu Chen: I’ve Become a Country Bumpkin!

| City.

Yu Chen’s mind was blank the entire way back to the City Lord’s Mansion.

And his dozen or so trusted subordinates,

were all completely numb, totally incapable of thinking.

They’d thought—

that the City Lord having a Tier Nine big brother was already just absurd.

But never thought—

even this big bro’s subordinates were all Tier Nines. Every single one a Tier Nine!

In just this short while,

the Council Chamber of the City Lord’s Mansion had a whole dozen Tier Nine powerhouses standing there!

Damn it…

There aren’t even this many Tier Nine powerhouses on the whole Z99 Planet!

But the scariest thing is…

Going by what Brother Gang said,

Lord Yu Jin—City Lord’s big bro—kills Tier Nines like killing chickens.

His true tier has already reached a height unimaginable to normal people.

Tier Ten?

Tier Eleven?

Brother Gang told them—

Months ago, Lord Yu Jin had already swatted down dozens of Tier Ten, Tier Eleven, and even Tier Twelve Evolvers.

City Lord’s Mansion.

On the City Lord’s throne, Yu Jin sat at ease.

He’d actually intended to let Yu Chen sit, but the latter wouldn’t have it, muttering something like, “Since when does the little brother sit while the big brother stands?”

“So, talk.”

“What exactly happened.”

“Your big bro has your back, got a grudge? Settle it. Got beef? Take revenge. Not letting a single bastard off.”

Yu Jin looked at Yu Chen, gently prompting him.

Earlier, Yu Chen had told only the general story, not many specifics.

Now, with everyone here, Yu Jin had Yu Chen tell it in detail.

“Alright.”

Yu Chen nodded, forcibly suppressing his numbness and curiosity for now, and began to relate everything that had happened to him since transmigrating.

“After I transmigrated, I found the environment all around me was completely unfamiliar…”

“At first, I thought I was still on A3 Planet, but before long, I realized something was off…”

“I was actually on Z99 Planet—definitely not the planet from my closed beta…”

“Later, I awakened the ’Sword’ attribute, but then the Refuge City Lord started giving me a hard time, so I built my own power and started resisting…”

“Afterwards, I became the City Lord, learned about the existence of the Supreme Promotion, and began developing and expanding | City…”

“At first, everything went fine. Even though | City couldn’t possibly catch up for the next promotion, there was still hope for the one in fifty years…”

“But Qili City…”

“…”

Yu Chen went on for quite a while.

Everyone listened quietly.

By the end, it was exactly the scene Yu Jin had seen when he arrived piloting the Gundam.

Qili City’s Tier Eight Evolver was leading a hundred-thousand-strong army, besieging | City, trying to kill Yu Chen the City Lord.

“Bastards!”

Old Yu instantly started cursing as soon as he heard it all.

“What the hell is this Qili City?”

“Bullying my kid?”

“And all for just a measly Tier Nine Crystal?”

“Outrageous, absolutely outrageous!”

Old Yu was grumbling and swearing up a storm.

But Yu Chen and his dozen trusted subordinates couldn’t help a nervous twitch at the corner of their mouths.

“All for a measly Tier Nine Crystal?”

This line…

Why does it sound so wrong?

That’s a Tier Nine Crystal! The highest tier out there!

Buzz—

The next moment.

The air before Yu Chen and the others visibly rippled.

A collection of dazzling, pristine crystals appeared.

Right in front of Yu Chen floated ten Tier Nine Energy Crystals, twenty Tier Eight Energy Crystals, all at 100% purity.

As for the bald brute and a few of the other trusted subordinates, Yu Jin simply and generously handed each more than a dozen Tier Seven or Tier Eight Energy Crystals.

For a moment,

the council hall was dead silent.

Gulp—!

After a while,

Yu Chen’s involuntary swallow finally broke the silence.

“Bro…”

“Did you just go full cheat mode?”

“Or did you rob the ’Wasteland’ game shop?”

As soon as he said that,

Yin Yao and the others all burst out laughing.

The room’s mood went light and lively.

…

…

| City.

As a Level 6 Shelter City, its subordinates also numbered over a million.

And today, the million of | City’s people were excited, nervous, and full of curiosity.

Because they’d all heard—

that their own City Lord’s big brother had descended from the sky.

A truly terrifying boss!

It’s said his tier is way beyond Tier Nine!

And even his subordinates are all Tier Nine Evolvers!

Tier Nine?

For the million subordinates of | City, that was impossibly distant—a source of overwhelming awe.

And right now,

the whole million citizens had marched outside the city gates, lining up in neat squares.

Because…

Thanks to the City Lord’s connection, they, too, had the chance to “go to the heavens” and tour that vast, towering Sky City overhead.

Its name was ’Dawn City’—the big brother City Lord’s own citadel.

It’s said his number of subordinates had surpassed a hundred million!

What even is a hundred million subordinates?

They couldn’t wrap their heads around it—couldn’t even imagine…

Whoosh—!

From above, the Sky City shone a massive pillar of light down.

Those beams of light enveloped the entire million-person crowd.

And then,

Buzz—!

Space rippled.

In just a blink, when these million opened their eyes again, they found themselves standing on an unimaginably vast plaza.

This plaza alone was bigger than all of | City!

“This, this is Sky City?”

The million people were beside themselves with excitement and curiosity, nervously craning their necks to look around.

The sight before them made them feel…

like they’d left the Wasteland and entered a sci-fi metropolis!

Not to mention the epic Ring of the Sky with all its subsidiary cities, or the Sky Tower soaring in the heart of the city.

Just the skyscrapers in view, the dazzling array of futuristic buildings, already blew their minds wide open.

“Wait, hang on…”

“Is that a subway?!”

“A floating subway? Flying cars? Whoa?”

“What the heck is that?”

“Holy shit! Even Kenkiki and Madangdang are here?”

“…”

The truth is,

ever since Dawn City left A3 Planet, after several further months of expansion,
