Now her panel had completely transformed into a Lord template, while the original Player panel had not disappeared; she only needed to click on the Lord panel's name to switch to it.
In the upper right corner of the panel were several icons, which seemed to be the so-called Free Market and Chat Channel.
However, Bai Yi didn't rush to click on them; instead, she first opened the warehouse.
The warehouse on the panel wasn't a bug-like spatial storage; it seemed to merely tally the resources within her territory.
The Tier 1 beast bones and wood stored inside came from fallen dead branches and the remains of creatures the Giant Banyan had killed within the territory.
“This makes more sense now…”
Bai Yi mumbled, her gaze dropping as she opened the warehouse.
Inside the warehouse lay two small travel bags: one adorned with a rose pattern and gold trim, looking extremely luxurious, and the other featuring a Beetle pattern, made only of black leather with no excessive decoration.
It seemed these were the so-called troop bags.
“Then I'll open them along with the Newbie Gift Pack!”
The Newbie Gift Pack was different from the troop bags; it was a flat, square gift box and couldn't be opened simultaneously with the troop bags, so Bai Yi opened this gift pack first.
“You opened the Newbie Gift Pack. You received Iron Dagger *1, Whole Grain Rice *1 (unit), Bloodthirsty Beetle Nest Blueprint *1.”
“Iron Dagger (White): An ordinary fruit knife, but also a life-saving tool when necessary. Attack coefficient 1.1, additional attack +10.”
“Note: Different weapons have different attack coefficients. Final damage is proportional to the strength used.”
“Bloodthirsty Beetle Nest Blueprint (Green): After learning, you can consume materials to construct a 【Bloodthirsty Beetle Nest】. Required materials: Wood *20, Stone *20, Fresh Meat *30.”
“Bloodthirsty Beetle Nest (Green): Can consume Fresh Meat to recruit (breed) 【Bloodthirsty Beetle】 units. The Nest comes with 5 initial units. Recruitment cost: Fresh Meat *1.”
This was all the information Bai Yi could see. When she tried to view detailed information about the Bloodthirsty Beetle, she was prompted that it could only be viewed after construction.
The construction cost wasn't much. For others, Fresh Meat might be hard to obtain, but Bai Yi was different; her warehouse still held 647 units of Giant Tusked Pig meat!
Oh, no, now there were only 644 units.
Bai Yi noticed a small root of the Giant Banyan still poking into the Giant Tusked Pig's corpse, secretly absorbing its flesh.
Only when the Giant Banyan realized Bai Yi seemed to have noticed its actions did it reluctantly retract its root, looking somewhat wronged.
“Forget it, forget it. The Giant Banyan killed it anyway, so it's fine if it eats a little.”
With ample food, Bai Yi didn't care about this small consumption, and of course, there was also the reason that Bai Yi currently had no way to process the Giant Tusked Pig's corpse.
However, what excited Bai Yi even more was the unhulled rice now lying in a small cloth bag on the panel!
If it were given to others, it would indeed be troublesome, as they would have to figure out how to hull the grains before eating. But Bai Yi was different; she didn't intend to waste it by eating it as food.
With her ability, she could directly begin her great farming endeavor!
Her attention returned to the panel, and she continued to open the two troop bags.
Like the Newbie Gift Pack, two bags materialized from the panel, but each also had an additional wooden table floating in mid-air.
As the two travel bags opened simultaneously, a pile of cards immediately flew out, stacking separately on the two tables.
Both piles of cards bore the same patterns as their respective troop bags: the left pile had rose-patterned backs, and the right pile had Beetle-patterned backs.
Seeing this, Bai Yi suddenly became excited.
“Holy crap, gacha!”
Bai Yi had played several gacha games, experiencing both double golds in ten draws and hitting full pity multiple times, her luck being extremely average.
But this also made her draws always unpredictable; she never knew if she would be lucky or unlucky.
“How can gacha be bad! Just draw!”
Bai Yi swept her hands over the two piles of cards, scattering them, and with quick reflexes, picked out two cards from the two piles.
“Spirits of heaven and earth! This concerns whether I can survive in the future! I must get something good!”
Bai Yi closed her eyes in prayer, then lifted her eyelids just a crack.
She placed her hands on the two cards, slightly lifting a corner.
Bang!
As soon as she lifted the cards, Bai Yi already glimpsed the result, and for a moment, she slammed the two cards back onto the table in disbelief.
“No way…”
Clinging to the last shred of hope that she had misseen, Bai Yi widened her eyes and lifted a small corner again.
The light emanating from beneath the cards was unobstructed, unaffected, and reflected in Bai Yi's eyes.
“Hiss!”
Blue sky and white clouds!
“Damn it!”
Bai Yi cursed loudly, pressing the cards back down again.
“Forget it, out of sight, out of mind! Let's first see what that chat channel the announcement mentioned is about.”
Annoyed by the gacha, Bai Yi didn't even bother to check the results. She directly opened the panel and entered the chat channel.
“Please set your nickname.”
Seeing this function, Bai Yi's eyes lit up.
“My real name was revealed in the previous announcement. Now, with this function, I can hide my identity again and continue to stay low-key!”
With this thought, Bai Yi decisively entered a name.
“Green.”
“This nickname is already taken.”
“Tree Queen.”
“This nickname is already taken.”
Bai Yi immediately had a question mark appear above her head and couldn't help but curse:
“Good names are all taken by dogs, huh?!”
“Please confirm nickname 'Good names are all taken by dogs, huh?'”
“I…”
“This nickname is already taken.”
For a moment, Bai Yi felt like she was going to be infuriated to death by this system. She reached out and clicked no, then casually blurted out a word:
“Fan Mao.”
“Please confirm nickname 'Fan Mao'.”
“Confirm.”
“World Chat Room is not yet open. Welcome to World 9805, Zone 33 Chat Room.”
As soon as she entered the chat channel, Bai Yi felt as if she had arrived in a previously active group chat; it was very lively.
At this moment, the channel was still immersed in the first kill announcement from earlier.
Shui Shui Shui: “What's the use of getting good troops now? High-level troops require much more resources! My purple-grade troop alone needs 100 units of ordinary food to be built!”
A Plant: “Brother Shui actually has purple-grade troops! Brother Shui is awesome!”
Under South Mountain: “What do you think the first kill reward was?”
Special Forces of Light: “Even if we knew, it wouldn't matter. Brother Shui, please put more water up for sale! Just one bottle! I'm really dying of thirst!”
Corpse King: “What about purple-grade troops? The most important thing for a Lord is the Lord's talent!”
“Corpse King shared an image.”
“Talent: Zombie Dominator (Gold).”
Under South Mountain: “Holy crap!”
Special Forces of Light: “Holy crap!”
A Plant: “What about Zombie Dominator! Brother Shui occupies a whole warehouse as his territory! When you need food, won't you still have to beg Brother Shui?!”
Corpse King: “Sorry, I've already found many treasure chests by controlling zombies, so I have no worries about food and drink. I can sell some now; who wants some?”
Special Forces of Light: “Me! I want water! I can trade wood for it!”
Corpse King: “Private message.”
…
As soon as she entered, she witnessed a grand display of power from a big shot, which made Bai Yi want to screenshot her own talent and show off.
Her hand rose and fell, and she finally gave up.
“No, I must stay low-key!”
Suppressing her competitive spirit, Bai Yi began to scroll up and read through the historical messages, attempting to analyze the current situation.
