Chapter 80 - Entering the Shadow World
Chapter 80: Entering the Shadow World
“If you can’t even lead an army of 10 million, you’d better go home, wash up, and sleep. As for revenge, don’t even think about it. What right does a piece of trash have to think about revenge?” Li Cheng did not care about formalities and said to Pearl directly.
Hearing this, Pearl was shocked.
That was right. If she could not even lead an army of 13 million, what could she do to take revenge? Just words?
In the past, she could have said that she was not strong enough, but Li Cheng had given her the strength. If she could not even control this troop, she really should go home and wash up.
Thinking of this, Pearl took a few deep breaths and said solemnly, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you down.”
Li Cheng nodded and did not say anything else. If these 13 million troops were to really fight, no one would be her opponent. It was never really about the number of soldiers but the proficiency of the commander. These troops were perfect for Pearl to practice her skills.
After all the troops were assembled, Li Cheng temporarily handed over all the priests to Asilia, from the level five intermediate priests to Li Cheng’s own priests.
Among Asilia’s skills, she had additional healing skills. It could be said to be the most suitable.
After confirming that the defensive towers in his territory were all in operation, Li Cheng did not leave behind any troops to defend the city. If those magic traps, city walls, and Legendary defensive towers could not defend his territory against the enemy when he was not here, his defensive troops would not be of any use either.
Unlike normal players, Li Cheng could control the passage to the Shadow World, which meant that he could return to his territory at any time. If anyone dared to attack his territory, his army would be able to return instantly.
Thinking up to this point, Li Cheng did not hesitate and opened the passage to the Shadow World immediately. Instantly, a dark gray teleportation door that was spinning non-stop appeared in front of him. Li Cheng gestured to Pearl and walked in as she followed closely behind.
…
After a feeling of weightlessness, Li Cheng once again felt the ground beneath his feet. At the same time, he heard the system notification ring.
“Ding, dong, you’ve entered the special map, Shadow World!
“Ding, dong, Shadow World is a special plane that’s independent from the main world. Please, be careful!
“Ding, dong, as the first player in the world to enter Shadow World, you’ve obtained a hundred reputation points!
“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered a 10,000-times amplification and obtained one million reputation points!”
As the system’s voice fell, Li Cheng began to size up the scene in the Shadow World.
There were only two colors in the Shadow World, black and white, so the scene in Li Cheng’s eyes was filled with dark gray radial lines. The sun in the sky was also emitting a pale light, expelling some of the darkness.
Li Cheng was not unfamiliar with the Shadow World so he quickly adapted to it. Sylvia’s originally ice-blue hair had also turned dark gray.
At this time, Pearl came back to her senses. Only then did she confirm that she had entered the Shadow World. She could not help but feel a little shocked. The time was now past 10 in the morning and it was almost two hours before the Shadow World would open.
‘How did I get in?’ Thinking of this, she looked at Li Cheng. He could actually enter the Shadow World ahead of time?
As a top-tier player, Pearl knew very well what it meant to enter two hours ahead of time! Although it was only two hours, these two hours were enough to do a lot of things.
Even if an ordinary player came in two hours earlier than others, their progress would be much faster than the rest, let alone a super strong player like Li Cheng.
While Pearl was lost in her thoughts, Lillian suddenly waved her hand, and countless Heavenly Knights charged toward a shadow. Suddenly, a strange ear-piercing scream came from a short distance away. In the next moment, a system notification rang in Li Cheng’s ears.
“Ding, dong, your team has successfully killed a Gold-grade boss, Ghost Creature, a two-headed ghost beast. You’ve obtained EXP…
“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered a 10,000 times increase and obtained EXP…
“Ding, dong, your Heavenly Knight has leveled up, currently at level two!
“Ding, dong, your Heavenly Knight has leveled up, currently at level ten!
“Ding, dong! You’ve obtained five hundred contribution points from the Church of Light. You’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification and obtained five hundred million contribution points from the Church of Light!
“Ding, dong! You’ve obtained thirty thousand shadow points. You’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification and obtained three hundred million shadow points!
“Ding, dong!”
After a series of system notifications, Pearl finally saw a terrifying monster that was more than five meters tall slowly fall to the ground where the Heavenly Knights had charged.
Its body was entirely made up of gray shadows, like a carnivorous creature. It had two huge ugly heads. Its body was hidden in the Shadow World, completely integrated with the surrounding scenery. It was completely undetectable!
Li Cheng did not find anything strange about this. The monsters in the Shadow World had one main characteristic, which was that they were hard to detect. In his previous life, when the players attacked this place, they had suffered a lot. In the end, the players would have to cast a scouting spell with each step they took.
This two-headed Ghost Beast was a level 50 Gold-grade Boss. Under the attack of the Heavenly Knights, it died instantly.
Lillian looked at the Ghost Beast’s corpse and sighed. “They were just ordinary ghost dogs in the past. I don’t know why they became like this…”
Seeing that Lillian was not in high spirits, Li Cheng walked up to her and gently rubbed her head as he said calmly, “If the Shadow Dragon wants to maintain the balance of the Shadow World, it must allow the existence of evil. Everything’s relative.”
“This is an extremely wrong view, Earl Netherworld!” Hearing Li Cheng’s words, Asilia was obviously unhappy. She looked at Li Cheng with a serious expression and said angrily, “All evil should be dispelled and destroyed!”
Hearing this, the corner of Li Cheng’s mouth involuntarily twitched. He had forgotten that there was still a Saintess in his army. Asilia was the most devout believer of the God of Light, so she naturally believed in the God of Light’s tricks.
However, he, Li Cheng, was neutral. He did not have the Saintess’s Holy Mother’s heart.
So what if he was kind? So what if he was evil? It was just that their standpoints were different and their natures were different. Therefore, these two camps were born to be enemies. What did all this have to do with him?
Li Cheng did not explain much. He chose to ignore Asilia and instead, focused on the reward he received. This was what he wanted!
