While you waited, you thought how great it would be if you knew how to pick locks. Then you wouldn't have to waste money whenever you forgot your keys.

Is Something Wrong with Your Lordship? 你这领主有问题吧
The world is destroyed, the apocalypse arrives, and a new era begins. Everyone is granted the right to survive as a Lord. Territories, heroes, troops, treasures, and resources: the server formed from countless continents is now fully open. Qin Muye looks at his panel, which makes him seem like an expendable extra, and his territory with its damaged suffix. He can hardly keep from crying. No divine talent, no hidden hints, and no absurdly powerful class. “In that case, I'll just have to find anot
