Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True

After a brief moment of darkness, Ye Bai's vision brightened.

Another day had passed in the Boundless Realms, and it was now dawn.

Ye Bai first opened the Lord Panel to take a look. It had been 25 days since the establishment of her territory.

Even when a lord is away from their territory, they are not completely unaware of what's happening. Thanks to the remote Lord Panel, which is tied to the Tree of Creation, the lord can sense major events occurring within the territory from afar.

However, details such as resource allocation, work distribution, and satisfaction levels are not visible.

Still, the panel allows the lord to know if the territory has been attacked and whether to accept new refugees.

Five in-game days ago, while Ye Bai was rampaging through Tute City, the third wave of refugees arrived as scheduled. Naturally, she chose to accept them.

In the pre-release version of Boundless Realms that Ye Bai was familiar with, if the lord was absent, newly arrived refugees would remain idle without work instructions, wasting a wave of labor.

But after discovering that the NPCs in this version of Boundless Realms were more intelligent and the systems more flexible, Ye Bai had entrusted Carrie, the highest-level professional in her territory, with the task of assigning work to new refugees in her absence.

Ye Bai wasn’t entirely sure if Carrie could handle the task, but trying was better than not trying at all. If successful, it would be nothing but beneficial for her.

Additionally, there was one special feature: no matter where the lord was, they could sense the general direction of their territory. However, this was only a rough sense of direction and not an exact location.

Ye Bai didn’t immediately use the teleportation array to leave Tute City. Instead, she decided to make one last shopping spree in the city.

Since she was already here, she couldn’t let the teleportation fee go to waste!

When she arrived in Tute City, Ye Bai had 85 gold coins on her. Originally, she had set aside this sum for emergencies, but since her battle plan had gone smoothly—thanks to her level and information advantage—the money remained untouched, aside from the cost of renting a warehouse.

On the contrary, during the battles, Ye Bai had looted a wave of equipment and supplies from the employees of the Makur Group. She sold off all items below green quality, leaving only a few items in the rented warehouse: specialty goods from the Chaos Capital and equipment of green quality or higher.

- **Fine Leather Armor** (Green) x6

- **Blood River Clam** (Green) x12

- **Blood Oak** (Blue) x22

- **High-Grade Fine Sandstone** (Blue) x13

The spatial backpack was convenient, with the only drawback being that only items of the same name and quality could be stacked. For example, Ye Bai had looted 18 more **Standard Crossbows** of common white quality, but since they would take up an extra slot, she sold them off.

In the early stages, a **Standard Crossbow** would be a coveted piece of equipment in other territories. But for Ye Bai, who had already purchased an **Energy Crossbow** from a traveling merchant, it was merely transitional gear.

The same went for other green-quality equipment she had only one or two pieces of—taking them would have taken up too much backpack space, so she sold them on the spot. However, the total revenue from selling these items was only 2 gold coins and 34 silver coins, not even enough to cover her teleportation fee.

The three items that remained in Ye Bai’s warehouse were all specialties of the Chaos Capital.

**Blood Oak** and **High-Grade Fine Sandstone** were higher-tier versions of the Chaos Capital’s specialty materials, **Oak** and **Fine Sandstone**, respectively. These materials could be used to craft higher-quality items and could fetch a higher price from NPCs.

As for the **Blood River Clam**, despite being green-quality, Ye Bai was quite fond of it, especially after discovering her good luck in the Boundless Realms… after all, who doesn’t love a blind box?@@novelbin@@

When opened, a **Blood River Clam** had a 90% chance to yield clam meat, which could be used as cooking ingredients, a 9% chance to yield various odd trinkets, and a 1% chance to yield a **Blood Pearl**.

The **Blood Pearl** had no practical combat value, but its sole value lay in its price—it was a top-tier material in the **Jewelry** category. Depending on the size of the pearl, its average value ranged from 10 to 100 gold coins. If the territory had a **Jewelry Shop** and a **Jeweler**, the processed pearl could fetch several times its original price, becoming a highly sought-after **Jewelry** item among nobles.

After packing the items from the warehouse into her spatial backpack, Ye Bai continued her shopping spree across various NPC shops in Tute City.

At this point, Ye Bai was arguably the richest she had ever been.

In real life, she had earned 20,000 star coins, elevating her living standards from that of a vagrant to a comfortable middle-class lifestyle. In the game, her gold coins were unmatched, rivaling the liquid funds of entire civilizations. No individual player could compare.

However, Ye Bai understood that hoarding this wealth was a waste. Converting it into resources for her territory’s development and investing in its construction would maximize her gains.

- **Blood River Clam** x58

- **Blood Oak** x69

- **High-Grade Fine Sandstone** x54

- **Fine Beast Hide** x102

- **Scorching Blood** x43

- **Frostblood** x35

Clear them out! All of them!

Ye Bai’s massive spending spree pushed the discounts in these shops to their limits. Even so, the total cost came to 23 gold coins and 67 silver coins.

The first three items were specialties, while the latter three could be found in all three major capitals. However, due to the supply and demand dynamics influenced by each city’s developmental focus, certain materials were cheaper in specific cities. Merchants traveled between cities to profit from these price differences.

Among the three major capitals, the Chaos Capital sold biological materials the cheapest, the Alchemy Capital specialized in mechanical alchemical creations, and the Magic Capital focused on magic-related materials. Since Ye Bai was in the Chaos Capital, she naturally took advantage of this opportunity.

After finishing her shopping, Ye Bai organized her backpack, ensuring nothing was left behind, and stepped onto the teleportation array. She then chose to spend 3 gold coins to return to Melo City.

Ye Bai planned to return to her territory from Melo City.

However, this time she wouldn’t be able to hitch a ride on Kazmai’s “wind balloon.” She would have to make her way back on her own.

With her sense of direction toward her territory and her newly acquired class, Ye Bai could choose to travel like an independent adventurer, fighting monsters and making her way back to her territory alone.

But having already bypassed the normal process of leaving her territory once, Ye Bai couldn’t help but come up with a new idea for her return trip.

In a standard wilderness start, bringing a squad of guards from the territory would allow the opening of the first trade route.

Subsequent trade routes could be opened either from the player’s territory or from another town, with the key condition being the presence of “people belonging to the player’s territory” and “transporting goods.”

As the lord, Ye Bai was naturally a member of Baiye Village. Therefore, if she hired a team of NPC transporters in Melo City to accompany her back to Baiye Village, it would fulfill the “goods transport” condition.

If successful, this would essentially be another exploit. By the time Ye Bai reached her territory, she would have simultaneously opened a trade route for it.

Even if the system didn’t recognize it as a trade route, it wouldn’t matter—Ye Bai would still be returning to her territory regardless.

As for the time required, based on her previous experience of taking Kazmai’s hot air balloon, which took one in-game day, the straight-line distance between Baiye Village and Melo City wasn’t long. Even accounting for potential terrain obstacles and monster encounters, it shouldn’t take more than five in-game days to reach Baiye Village. Ye Bai would still have time to assign tasks to the third wave of refugees.

Before leaving the magical city of Melo, Ye Bai, of course, couldn't resist another round of shopping.

In the east of the city, he bought magical crystals; in the west, he picked up some special seeds...

Humming a tune, Ye Bai jogged all the way to the tailor shop in the southern part of the city to purchase another batch of enchanted fabric.

Just after buying the fabric, the shopkeeper suddenly said to him, "Traveler, your hat and boots were meant to be a set, weren't they?"

Ye Bai paused mid-step. Hmm? The scent of a quest?
