Chapter 8

After exiting the game space, Gu Xuan returned to his low-rent housing.

The original owner was a gaming noob, and in this era where having Gold Beans means having everything,

his life hadn't seen any significant improvement.

Gu Xuan looked at the dilapidated electrical equipment,

as well as the aging decor,

and sighed,

"Once I have more Gold Beans later,"

"I must buy a big villa and move to a better environment."

With the [Underworld] at his disposal, he will only get stronger in the future,

and his generals will become increasingly "underworld-tier"; it will be hard to lose even if he wants to!

Gold Beans will only keep increasing,

so he doesn't have to worry about money! He mustn't mistreat himself materially!

He shifted his consciousness to his Legends of the Three Kingdoms game space account,

which had a total of 2000 Gold Beans,

"The game space is really stingy!"

With this few beans, it’s only enough for two draws in the [Underworld], and then they're gone!

Gu Xuan clicked his tongue,

the Legends of the Three Kingdoms game space in this world is just as stingy as the "Gouka" company from his past life.

Winning a match gets you 1000 beans, are they trying to dismiss a beggar?

"Forget it, let's just start drawing!"

Gu Xuan sank his consciousness into his mind, just as he was about to use the two thousand Gold Beans to draw generals twice in the [Underworld],

a line of golden text suddenly appeared on the pitch-black gate of the Underworld!

[First time achieving a Peerless broadcast, rewarded with ten draw opportunities!]

"Oh ho!"

"My own golden finger is generous after all!"

Unlike the stingy Gouka and the Legends of the Three Kingdoms game space!

Gu Xuan cheered in his heart with pleasant surprise,

"Wait, wait, wait..."

"I need to wash my hands first."

This was a habit he had from playing games and drawing prizes in his past life,

which Gu Xuan had always kept.

Although the [Underworld] ten-pull guarantees a gold card,

who wouldn't want a double or even triple gold egg?

He went to the bathroom first, poured dish soap and body wash on his hands, and then applied some hand cream,

scrubbing two or three times until his hands were bright red,

only then did he sit back on the bed and close his eyes,

and when his consciousness re-entered the [Underworld],

Gu Xuan couldn't wait to shout:

"Draw! I'm going for ten pulls straight away!"

The pitch-black gate of the [Underworld] opened,

and subsequently,

ten rays of light containing general cards flew out from within.

Among them, nine emitted blue light,

and one glowed with golden light!

"Another golden legend!!"

Gu Xuan was overjoyed; not only did he get ten free draws,

but he also got an epic general!

Who wouldn't be happy with that!

Such drop rates, if they were in the Gouka game of his past life,

he’d probably never get one even if he traded a hundred years of his lifespan!

"A guaranteed drop every ten pulls."

"It’s simply the GOAT!"

Exclaiming once more, Gu Xuan suppressed the urge to click on the golden legend,

and first clicked on the other blue-light boutique general cards one by one.

"Save the best for last,"

"let me see, what are these other nine boutique cards?"

The first general card was flipped over—

"Before the two armies, I do not behead surrendering generals!"

An old man with white hair in green clothes appeared in Gu Xuan’s mind,

"Boundary Huang Gai, not bad."

"A hard counter to Zhang Zhang Chunhua."

The second card—

"In a chaotic world, the capable shall rule!"

Boundary Cao Cao.

"A classic Wei Kingdom blood-selling general,"

"average strength."

Usually not very useful.

The third card—

"Saving lives and healing the wounded, hanging the pot to help the world."

Boundary Hua Tuo.

"Hey, the standard support for blood-selling generals,"

"but it’s not great if you encounter a pig-like teammate."

After all, with Zhen Ji who used "Bountiful Harvest" on his Empty City Wolong Zhuge Liang,

Gu Xuan didn't dare to have too many expectations for teammates in this world.

Playing support?

Better forget it.

The fourth card—

"Summoning wind and rain, driving thunder and lightning!"

Boundary Zhang Jiao.

"The Thunder Mage."

"He can change judgments, which is okay,"

"it’s just not easy to draw a Dodge."

The fifth card—

"Majestic in all directions, killing intent drifts; serving the King and protecting the carriage shows merit!"

SP Zhao Yun!

"Little Zhao Yun!"

The moment he saw the majestic figure riding a white horse in his mind,

Gu Xuan was thrilled!

When he first played Legends of the Three Kingdoms, the first time he spent money was to get Little Zhao Yun.

As a pay-to-win general used by Gouka to tempt players to spend money,

Little Zhao Yun could be considered one of the most cost-effective generals!

Capable of both offense and defense,

back when "underworld" generals weren't rampant, he was also a great choice as a Landlord in Landlord mode!

Now that standard generals are everywhere,

SP Zhao Yun’s utility is huge,

with a Wolong Zhuge Crossbow, he can just go on a killing spree!

Continuing to flip the cards, he reached the sixth one—

"Father, run quickly, I will hold them off!"

Cao Ang!

"This is also a boutique general with good utility."

"Especially effective against 'Big Treasure'."

"Treasure must have Ang, Ang must have Dodge; this has become a catchphrase!"

The seventh card—

"War can defeat the enemy! Intent can defend!"

Zhu Ling.

"The strength against standard generals is okay,"

"as for other aspects..."

"Pairing him with Hua Tuo or Sun Sun Shangxiang would perform better."

The eighth card—

"Ten thousand arrows pierce the heart, destroying their morale!"

Boundary Yuan Shao.

"This thing isn't even as useful as standard Yuan Shao."

The ninth card—

"Respecting each other like guests, twin swords drawn together!"

Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang!

"This is good!"

"She counts as a female general with decent strength among the boutique ones!"

"If you're lucky, a one-versus-two is no problem!"

"If you pair her with that archery skin, it would be even better!"

Among these nine boutique generals,

Boundary Huang Gai, SP Zhao Yun, and Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang,

all have decent strength.

In these times when standard generals are prevalent,

with Gu Xuan’s skills,

not to mention going on a killing spree, at least maintaining a winning streak is no problem.

Putting the nine boutique general cards into his general library,

Gu Xuan finally turned his gaze, which he could no longer suppress, to the last one.

"A golden legend!"

"What general could it be?"
