I've already reached the maximum level, and you guys are just starting out?

Chapter 123 "Son, this is your Uncle Luo." "Uncle, Uncle, no!"

Chapter 123 "Son, this is your Uncle Luo." "Uncle, Uncle, no!" (23 words update~)

Mangcheng refers to the outer city streets.

The short-haired youth led the way, while Yu Jin followed slowly.

On the streets of the outer city.

The vendors were enthusiastically hawking their wares, selling mutated beast meat or daily necessities.

People passing by would stop and linger from time to time.

Yu Jin even saw an older woman and the stall owner putting on a 'bargaining show' on the spot.

"Tsk——"

Yu Jin was speechless with astonishment.

The scene within Mangcheng truly evoked a sense of disorientation, as if it were not a wasteland or post-apocalyptic world.

Ember noticed.

There are even lampposts standing on both sides of the city streets.

The utility pole is connected to the power line, and the power line is connected to... a surveillance camera?
Yu Jin was amused.

In a wasteland where technology has withered, seeing the familiar box-shaped probe feels both magical and absurd.

"The characteristics of this Mangcheng should be related to 'technology'."

Yu Jin made a guess in his mind.

As he surveyed and observed the scene of Mangcheng, the short-haired youth in front of him explained his experiences since his transmigration to Yu Jin.

The young man with the buzz cut was specially sent by Da Xia to protect Old Yu.

Old Yu was indeed well protected, even excessively so...

"You mean-"

"He's become sworn brothers with the city lord of Mangcheng?"

Yu Jin stopped and looked at the crew-cut youth to confirm.

"Um……"

The young man with the buzz cut also had a strange expression, but he still nodded and added:

"We just became sworn brothers a few days ago, and Uncle Yu even asked a few of us to be his witnesses..."

Yu Jin silently rubbed his forehead, remaining speechless for a moment.

a long time.

Yu Jin shook his head and followed the crew-cut youth toward the city lord's mansion in the center of Mang City.

He wanted to see what this city lord was really up to.

……

City Lord's Mansion, Council Hall.

It was afternoon, and the sky was not yet dark.

Yu Limin, however, was already holding a wine glass, his face flushed red, looking quite dizzy.

"Little Luo..."

"You're capable and easy to get along with!"

"Brother, I have high hopes for you!"

"Come on, do it!"

Yu Limin picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp.

This is thanks to the 0.1% numerical increase shared by the Ember's 'Buff Link'.

Although Yu Limin has never awakened, his various stats are already around 2000.

The starting numerical standards for a seventh-tier evolver are only around 3000.

At the same time, he shares the 'lightning' attribute from the embers.

With this enhancement, Yu Limin's current combat power is even approaching that of a newly promoted seventh-tier evolver.

Can be biased.

Despite his poor health, he still drinks every day and ends up like this...

"Brother Yu, I'll do it too!"

Across from Yu Limin, a middle-aged man dressed in white, smiling broadly, downed his drink in one gulp with a rather bold air.

Amidst the clinking of glasses, both host and guests enjoyed themselves immensely.

"that……"

"Xiao Luo!"

"Brother, there's something I've been wanting to tell you."

Yu Limin had barely finished speaking.

The middle-aged man, Luo Yu, the city lord of Mangcheng and a seventh-tier evolver, suddenly put on a serious face and spoke in a solemn tone.

"Between brothers like us, what is there that can't be said?"

"Just tell me, anything is possible, and I will do it!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Limin's smile was as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"Well, I already said it..."

"That's right, I have two sons and a wife."

"As you know, this wasteland is full of dangers. I eat and drink well here with you every day, but I toss and turn at night, unable to sleep because I'm worried about them!"

After drinking a cup of wine by himself, Yu Limin continued:
"I was thinking..."

"Just in case, I mean just in case..."

"My two sons and their wives, if they come to your refuge city..."

"Could you..."

Yu Limin didn't finish his sentence.

But the meaning is already quite straightforward.

Although Yu Limin is unreliable, he values his family very much.

In recent days, he had often been tempted to leave the city and search for his wife and children in the wasteland.

just.

Luo Yu told him that the vastness of this wasteland was far beyond his imagination.

and.

This area, A369, has been extremely turbulent lately.

Another level 4 refuge city in the area frequently clashes with the subordinate cities of Mang City, and there have even been numerous sieges, defenses, and captures of the city...

In Luo Yu's words, a great change is coming, and the smoke of war on the wasteland will become more and more frequent and heavier.

"Ugh……"

Thinking of this, Yu Limin sighed heavily again.

"Brother, where do you put me with those words?"

Luo Yu, however, looked quite displeased.

He stood up, filled Yu Limin's glass, and then poured one for himself.

"If my nephew and sister-in-law arrive in Mangcheng, let alone doing them a favor or arranging a job for them, even becoming the deputy city lord would be a matter of just a word from you, elder brother!"

After Luo Yu finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

"OK!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Limin was overjoyed.

Although he believed he was capable of protecting his son and daughter-in-law after awakening as 'Thunder God', it was still a wasteland and apocalypse, and the protection of the refuge city made him feel more at ease.

His brother, Luo Yu, is a genuine seventh-tier evolver.

They are much stronger than me!

"pity……"

"The wasteland is too vast. I don't know if I'll ever see my son and daughter-in-law again in my lifetime."

Yu Limin's joy did not last long, and he soon began to sigh again.

Luo Yu smiled slightly as he watched this scene.

"Brother Yu, since you care so much about your nephew and sister-in-law, could you tell me about their situation?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Limin immediately perked up.

"Hey--"

"You have no idea what my son is like!"

"ember!"

"Holy crap, he was incredibly smart even as a child, and he's only gotten more impressive as an adult!" "Right before I transmigrated, the time I was in the hospital, he brought a stunningly beautiful woman with him to see me!"

"Have you ever heard of someone who lives off a woman? Hey, that's my little Jin!"

"..."

Yu Limin kept talking.

Luo Yu listened intently.

It just didn't take long.

A young man with a buzz cut, who was guarding outside the city lord's mansion, rushed in.

"how?"

Luo Yu frowned slightly, somewhat displeased.

But this young man with the buzz cut had been with Yu Limin before, so he didn't react.

"Lord Luo, Uncle Yu."

"Yes, it's embers!"

"Yu Jin is here! He's come to Mangcheng!"

Snapped--!
Yu Limin stood up abruptly.

The movement was so fast that it even left afterimages.

The wine glass he had been so fond of these past few days fell to the ground and shattered completely.

"Little Jin?"

"Little Jin is here?"

"Oh my, hahaha, my good son is here!"

……

Outside the City Lord's Mansion.

Da da da--

Yu Limin practically ran all the way to Yu Jin.

"Little Jin?"

"It really is Little Jin!"

Yu Limin looked at the embers from all angles, up and down, left and right.

During that time, there were both tears and laughter.

Finally, after confirming that Ember was not injured, not skin and bones, and had not suffered broken arms and legs from mutated beasts in the wild like many other refugees, he suddenly hugged Ember tightly.

"son!"

Old Yu reeked of alcohol, but Yu Jin was speechless at the moment.

This old rascal...

The father and son embraced tightly, but only briefly.

It was only for a short moment.

Old Yu released the embers, and then...

Crack-!
He raised his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning at the ground in the distance.

"How's it going?"

Yu Limin stared smugly at Yu Jin's reaction.

"..."

The embers remained silent.

"What?"

"Isn't this enough?"

"Father will show you a mourning watch!"

As he spoke, Yu Limin clasped his hands together and muttered to himself.

"Thunderstorm!"

He gave a light drink.

boom--

Rumble——!
Dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder rumbled overhead.

"Great!"

Yu Jin gave a thumbs up, praising him generously.

"Haha."

Yu Limin smiled like a chrysanthemum.

And not far away.

Luo Yu, the city lord of Mangcheng, froze on the spot the moment he saw Yu Jin.

The blood in his body almost stopped flowing backward at that moment.

"This this……"

Luo Yu's consistently elegant demeanor shattered completely at this moment.

Despite being a dignified seventh-tier evolver, he suddenly felt his legs go weak.

My knees are itchy, like I might accidentally make intimate contact with the ground at any moment...

What a pity!

Forty years have passed since I traveled here.

He worked his way up through thick and thin, eventually becoming the Lord of Mangcheng.

Luo Yu has met countless people and countless 'luck'.

but……

For the first and only time, he witnessed such terrifying, exaggerated, and indescribable 'luck' in a single person!
This is hardly a person's 'luck'.
What Luo Yu saw was as if countless galaxies were being destroyed, countless civilizations were rising and falling, and the destiny of the infinite universe was being witnessed...

Horror, great horror!
Luo Yu's heart was pounding so hard that, under the intense shock, he was completely unaware that his current outburst had already attracted the attention of Yu Jin and his son.

"Little Luo?"

Yu Limin was a little puzzled and called out.

The latter did not respond; his eyes were lifeless, and his face was turning pale.

Ember, however, narrowed his eyes slightly.

The city lord of Mangcheng seems to have quite a story.

The embers show respect, and the Eye of Insight is activated.

Luo Yu

Home planet: Abyss

Rank: Seven

[Attribute: Luck]

[Abilities: Qi Observation Lv7, Qi Grinding Wheel Lv6, Qi Projection Lv6...]

[Evaluation: An evolved being who has awakened the extremely rare 'Luck' attribute. For many years, he has maintained order in Mang City and enhanced the city's luck to improve his own rank... Seven days ago, he unexpectedly discovered Yu Limin's 'Awakening' and was shaken by the dazzling luck emanating from him, so he took the initiative to befriend him... Now, he is terrified by your luck, his heart is breaking...]

"Luck attribute?"

Yu Jin was somewhat surprised.

The word 'luck' carries considerable weight in online fantasy novels.

Even the Eye of Insight described it as an 'extremely rare attribute'.

"Little Jin."

Yu Limin's greeting made Yu Jin temporarily put aside these thoughts.

The embers looked toward the one before them.

The former, however, pulled Yu Jin along and walked to Luo Yu.

"Son, this is your Uncle Luo!"

Yu Limin enthusiastically introduced the situation, clearly still hoping to secure an official position for his son in Mangcheng.

just.

Before Yu Jin could speak,
