Chapter 83 - Insta-kill Before They Even Appear!
Chapter 83: Insta-kill Before They Even Appear!
Following Li Cheng’s command, the three heroines and Pearl nodded and ordered the team to enter battle mode.
Sylvia was the first to make a move. She instantly transformed into her dragon form and let out a long dragon’s roar. Following that, thousands of Frost Dragons charged toward the nest.
Roar!
Countless Frost Dragons released their terrifying black Dragon’s Breath in an instant. Even in the Shadow World where one could not see the colors, one could still feel the bone-chilling coldness from their attacks.
At the same time, Lillian and Luna also reacted. The Heavenly Knights charged forward and activated their AOE skills. The spears in their hands exploded with terrifying energy. Luna ordered the Frost Marksmen to release the Frost Arrow Rain. After reaching the maximum level, the Frost Arrow Rain dealt full damage!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Countless arrows instantly formed a large net as all three types of soldiers fired at full power. Large-scale AOE skills were instantly released. When their skills landed on the nest, the sound of system notifications rang in Li Cheng’s ears.
“Ding, dong, your troops have killed a thousand level four Specters and obtained four hundred experience points. You’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification. Your troops have obtained four million experience points and you’ve obtained forty thousand points!
“Ding, dong, you’ve obtained forty shadow points. You’ve also triggered a ten thousand times amplification and obtained four hundred thousand shadow points!
“Ding, dong, one of your Frost Dragons has leveled up. Currently, it’s at level two!
“Ding, dong, one of your Heavenly Knights has leveled up. Currently, it’s at level five!”
A thousand ordinary Ghost Beasts would only provide him with 40 points. Even with a 10,000-times increase in Shadow Points, it would amount to 400,000 points. This was still too little for Li Cheng who planned to empty the shop. Hence, Li Cheng’s target was still the Boss.
Under the bombardment of large AOE attacks, many Bosses exploded instantly. With so many powerful troops bullying the low-level Gold-grade Bosses, it would be strange if they were not instantly killed.
Li Cheng’s points were constantly increasing. Pearl, who was at the side, was shocked again. Her small mouth could not close at all. This was the first time she had seen Li Cheng’s troops fight. She initially thought that since she had tens of millions of troops in her hands, it must be the main force of this battle. However, it seemed that she was just here to shop. She did not even have the chance to make a move!
As a high-level player, her reaction speed was not slow. She quickly ordered her army to start pushing forward and surround those who escaped. Li Cheng saw her actions and nodded secretly. Pearl knew her position very well. She immediately chose to use tens of thousands of troops to support him. It was not easy to do this.
At this moment, the system’s voice rang in Li Cheng’s ear.
“Warning. Because you’ve killed too many Ghost Beasts, you’ve completely angered the Epic-grade Boss, Ten-Headed Hellhound. It’ll pursue you relentlessly!”
As soon as the system’s voice fell, a huge dark shadow appeared in the center of the ghost lair. In regards to Ghost Beasts, the darker their color, the stronger they were.
The Epic Boss approached angrily, wanting to tear Li Cheng into pieces. However, before it could show itself, it was enveloped by countless arrows from the elves. In just a second, its HP bar was emptied. At the same time, the system’s voice was heard.
“Ding, dong! Your troops have killed the Epic-grade Boss, the Ten-Headed Hellhound. You’ve obtained fifty million experience points. You’ve also triggered a ten thousand times amplification and obtained five hundred million experience points…
“Ding, dong, one of your Frost Dragons has leveled up. Currently, it’s at level twenty-seven!
“Ding, dong, you’ve obtained three million shadow points. You’ve triggered a ten thousand times increase and obtained thirty billion shadow points!
“Ding, dong, one of your Heavenly Knights has leveled up. Currently, it’s at level twenty!
“Ding, dong…”
Everything happened so fast that even Li Cheng could not react in time. Even he was a little speechless. How could an Epic-grade Boss have the courage to say that it was going to pursue him relentlessly?
Could it be possible that it did not have a clear idea of its own strength?
Meanwhile, Pearl was completely dumbfounded. That was an Epic-grade Boss. Why did it seem like a small soldier instead? It was instantly killed before it even appeared. Was this something that a human could do?
Li Cheng was also a little surprised by this Boss. Just this Boss alone gave him 30 billion shadow points. Compared to those ordinary monsters, it was simply incomparable.
‘Looks like I’ll still have to kill more bosses,’ Li Cheng thought to himself. ‘Now that I’ve cleared this place, it’s time to move on to the next one.’ Then, he ordered the troops to continue moving forward!
…
About half an hour later.
Pearl casually tossed out a mystical potion. The venom on her face was disappearing and the monsters in front of her were continuously losing HP. Li Cheng gave her a few thousand bottles and played around with them.
After half an hour of marching, Li Cheng had destroyed three monster nests and killed a few Bosses that had tried to stop him. His shadow points had now reached 62.6 billion. He was quite satisfied with this growth rate.
He remembered that in his previous life, it was the same event. The number one player was Eve from the Eagle Alliance, but her points were only in the hundreds of billions and she exchanged them for the Phantom Pearl.
Currently, Li Cheng only needed a few hours to surpass her three days of hard work!
One had to know that the Shadow World event at that time only happened a few years later. By then, Eve’s equipment was almost complete. It was completely different now!
According to Li Cheng’s plan, he needed to reach a hundred billion points so he could exchange for the Shadow Assassins. Obtaining their recruitment authority was the most important thing. With his current speed, he would be able to do it very quickly.
At this moment, Li Cheng came to a place that was also quite special in the Shadow World—the remains of the Profound Empire.
The Profound Empire was once a huge human empire that spanned across the entire continent. Legend had it that there were trillions of soldiers in the top ranks and it was most famous for its spells and puppets!
The puppets produced by the Profound Empire had already reached the top ranks. Even the Immortal Wonder in Li Cheng’s territory, the Profound Altar, originated from the Profound Empire.
Although the Profound Empire had been destroyed for thousands of years, anything related to them was not as simple. After marching for a few minutes, Li Cheng heard the warning from the system.
“You’ve entered an unknown area. This area’s extremely dangerous. Please, be careful!”
