Wasteland's Only King

Chapter 254: Chapter 37: You Are a Free Bird! Promotion Day! Fly Into the Sun! (Part 2)

“Star System Wasteland!”

“Our Dawn City is coming!”

Above Z99Z Planet.

Dawn City floats high in the sky.

Hundreds of millions of subordinates have already returned to the city at this time.

Every street and alley in Dawn City, as well as the Martial Arts Plaza, are now packed with people.

Over the past month, the strength and tier of Dawn City’s subordinates have all improved to varying degrees.

And Dawn City has welcomed new members as well.

None other than Yu Chen and his subordinates.

A month ago.

Yu Jin had earnestly asked his younger brother whether he wished to join Dawn City or continue working solo.

If he chose to go solo—

Yu Jin could help him unify all the Refuge Cities on Z99 Planet and raise the city he painstakingly built to become the Level 10 Shelter City right after Dawn City.

The reason for this suggestion was also that Yu Jin considered the attribute of his “Great Fortune Heaven-Equal Gu.”

But…

After much thought, Yu Chen still decided to give up.

He chose to forgo the chance to become a Level 10 Shelter City Lord and instead join Dawn City.

“Big brother’s big ship has a future far beyond any Level 10 Shelter City!”

Yu Chen had it all figured out.

And this decision made Old Yu so happy that his mouth was crooked from grinning.

Of course.

After Yu Chen made this decision, Yu Jin, as an elder brother, also gave him something in return.

One of the subordinate cities on the Ring of the Sky is now Yu Chen’s city.

His former trusted subordinates have also been awarded many crystal resources from Yu Jin.

The strength of his city has improved so rapidly over the past month, it’s not even an exaggeration to say it’s like riding a rocket.

Yu Chen is already Tier Nine.

And all his subordinates have reached Tier Seven and Tier Eight.

It’s worth mentioning—

After a month’s efforts at persuasion, Dongshan Li finally managed to secure tickets for herself and her trusted subordinates from Phoenix Soaring City to board Dawn City.

At this moment—

Dongshan Li stands in midair, above the Martial Arts Plaza.

Behind her, a group of Tier Eight Evolvers stand tall.

“City— no, Minister Li!”

“It’s truly an honor that you’ve let us join Dawn City!”

These Tier Eight Evolvers are all from Phoenix Soaring City.

Being able to set foot in Dawn City on the day of promotion, standing on this land, their hearts are filled with an inexpressible excitement and fervor.

You know—

In the past month,

Countless high-tier Evolvers on Z99 Planet have racked their brains trying to get into Dawn City!

“…”

Listening to her subordinates’ gratitude and praise, Dongshan Li said nothing.

Her slender hand gently brushed over her slightly swollen cherry lips as she quietly gazed at the Tower of the Sky in the city center.

The current her is not only a subordinate of Dawn City but has even gained a minor position.

Dawn City, Minister of Family Planning.

Though this position is just a nominal one—after all, only “Naiya City” among Dawn City and all subordinate cities on the Ring of the Sky has the “proliferation” trait—

But…

This was still a favor from Lord City Lord to her.

Now, Dawn City has an extremely refined leveling and contribution system for subordinates.

Subordinates of different levels receive different welfare benefits.

And though “Minister of Family Planning” is just a nominal position, it’s still the highest-level Class I subordinate.

“It’s worth it, all of it is worth it…”

Dongshan Li murmured softly.

In her palm, she tightly clutched a number tag with “11” written on it.

At this moment—

At the top of the Tower of the Sky—

This is where the true high-ranking core of Dawn City gathers.

Yin Yao, Chen Gang, Old Cui, Wang Yunpeng, Jiang Haichuan…

Players from Blue Star Civilization are quietly waiting for the promotion to begin, secretly brimming with excitement.

Neil, Naiya, Nasha, Aili, Luo Yu…

Players from other civilizations, now all affiliated civilizations under Blue Star, are also looking forward with anticipation.

“Star System Wasteland…”

“It’s going to be a new journey!”

Everyone speaks in hushed tones.

Much information and many rules about Star System Wasteland have already been explained in numerous lectures by Wu Yufei within the city; everyone, including the hundreds of millions of Dawn City subordinates, has a basic understanding.

But…

Understanding is one thing.

Actually stepping into the starry sky is another.

“Speaking of which…”

“There actually were some Blue Star players left on A3 Planet at the time.”

“Before leaving, Lord City Lord gave them a lot of support.”

“Even though we left A3 Planet, that planet still gets nine promotion slots.”

“If those nine slots all end up being Blue Star Civilization cities, I wonder if we’ll have a chance to meet them again in the future?”

At this moment—

Jiang Haichuan looked up at the celestial vault above his head, and this was the thought that surfaced in his mind.

Even though Dawn City is massive, with hundreds of millions of subordinates, it still didn’t encompass all of A3 Planet’s Blue Star players.

Whether they can reunite with even more Blue Star players in the Star System Wasteland is something to look forward to.

“Heh heh!”

“I heard Yu Fei say that in the early days of promotion, you’ll encounter or even compete with other promoted Refuge Cities?”

“I wonder if my Tier Eleven level will scare the hell out of those Tier Nine Shelter City Lords?”

Compared to Jiang Haichuan’s sense of righteousness, Chen Gang cared more about ’showing off’.

Now, after a month of crystal boost, he is already Tier Eleven!

Aside from him—

Nasha Aili and the other former Tier Nine Evolvers of Dawn City have all reached Tier Eleven as well.

Among them—

Naiya has reached the limit of Tier Eleven, just one step away from Tier Twelve.

Yin Yao and Neil have already broken through to Tier Twelve.

During this time, they seemed to have received special attention from Lord City Lord.

At this moment—

As the promotion is about to begin,

Countless gazes all fall on Yu Jin, standing out front.

He’s standing under the canopy at the top of the tower, quietly overlooking this Sky City that he created with his own two hands.

Time passes slowly.

[Ding——!]

Suddenly,

a crisp mechanical voice rings directly in everyone’s hearts in Dawn City.

[Congratulations!]

[As a direct subordinate of Dawn City, the number one Level 10 Shelter City on A3 Planet…]

[You have obtained the right to promote together with Dawn City to the higher-level server “Star System Wasteland”!]

“Wow!”

“Invincible!”

“Promotion! Promotion!”

“Lord City Lord, loyalty~!”

“…”

At this moment,

In every corner of Dawn City, hundreds of millions of people are cheering and shouting without pause.

At the same time—

BOOM——

RUMBLE——!

The entire Z99 Planet shakes violently.

Strange ripples of rules envelop Dawn City.

As the Refuge City of A3 Planet, Dawn City should have returned to A3 Planet for its promotion.

But…

A day ago, Yu Jin tried to warp back, only to find that “A3 Planet’s rules said you can just promote outside, no need to return.”

Thus—

That’s how Dawn City’s exception of promoting on Z99 Planet came about.

Buzz——!

Rays of light surge forth from the void.

In just a moment,

The enormous Dawn City hanging in the sky is swallowed completely by the light.

RUMBLE——!

Dawn City surges uncontrollably toward the higher vault of the sky.

BANG——!

In mere moments,

Dawn City bursts out of Z99 Planet!

The endless starry sky once again comes into view for everyone.

But…

The starry sky is no longer dark and dead.

On the contrary—

Hundreds of millions of people in Dawn City witness with their own eyes, on nearby or distant Wasteland Planets, bursts of light shooting out.

Some of those lights are large, some small, some brilliant and some dim.

But within each cluster of light, the vague shape of a Refuge City can be seen!

In this instant—

Across the entire planet server, thousands upon thousands of Refuge Cities promote together!

The final destination of all Refuge Cities is the Star System Wasteland!

BOOM——!

The tremors rise again.

This time, though, it comes from the endless starry sky.

[Beep——]

[Promotion channel activating…]

[Beep——]

[All Promoters, please prepare!]

[Beep——]

[Promotion channel opened!]

The crisp notification rings in the hearts of countless people amid the starry sky.

And then—

WHOOSH——!

Bands of light, uncontrollable, hurtle toward the dim sun at the center of the planet server!

Their speed is even faster than space warping.

In the blink of an eye—

Dawn City, as well as every Refuge City shrouded in light, all…

Rush into the sun!

The next instant—

Be it Dawn City or any other Refuge City,

all people hear that crisp mechanical prompt in their hearts again.

[Welcome to login…]

[Drake-3 Star System Wasteland Server!]
