Chapter 119: The Foundations of the Profound Empire

[Imperial scientist]

[Mission description: The Phantom Goddess was once the princess of the Profound Empire. He has entrusted you to kill the Empire's strongest scientist, Shelt. His physical body was dead, but his soul was still alive.]

[Mission Nature: just hidden]

[Mission difficulty: 5 billion]

[Mission details: Clean up the secret land, the Empire's first research institute, and kill the Shelt.]

[Mission reward: ???]

[Hint: there are countless dangerous traps in the first research institute of the empire. Please proceed with caution!]

Li Cheng finished reading the mission information. Even he couldn't help but be a little surprised. The difficulty of this mission was actually five billion!

One should know that even returning to the Eight Immortals Mountain, which was home to green-skinned monsters, was only eight billion difficulty. This made Li Cheng wonder, ‘What kind of frightening existence is there in this research institute?’

Although Li Cheng did not know what the Imperial Research Institute possessed, it was, he knew how difficult it was by comparing it to the Eight Immortals Mountain where one had to face over 10 green-skinned Deities of endless levels.

Thinking about this, he made a comparison. Li Cheng was still gathering strength for a while. What he is lacking now is the accumulation of time …

It was impossible to take a weapon from the arsenal, but Li Cheng would not be as polite as that with some other things. Thinking of this, he walked towards the control center.

Looking at the direction Li Cheng was heading, Ella hurriedly stomped her feet and followed him.

The control center is responsible for the operation of the entire arsenal. With guidance, Li Cheng arrived at a small room with all sorts of equipment he had never seen before.

In the center of the room, there was a basketball-sized ball that was emitting a faint light. It was the AI of the entire arsenal.

Seeing Li Cheng's arrival, the AI let out a mechanical sound.

“Honourable descendants of the royal family, welcome to the Arsenal Control Centre. AI zero-seven-nine-five, ready to serve you!”

Hearing the voice of the AI, Li Cheng did not say anything, but Ella was instantly enraged. He asked AI, “Descendants of the royal family? Whose descendant is he?”

The AI looked at Ella as if wondering if it should pay attention to her. Seeing this, Ella was furious. This is her dowry. If the AI turned around and refused to admit it, who wouldn't be angry?

In the end, the AI still said, “Daughter Ella, according to my data, the blood of the Netherworld master and your husband is one hundred percent matched.”

Hearing this, Ella was instantly enraged. His furious roar instantly resounded throughout the control center. “I have no husband!!!”

Ella almost exploded in anger. How could someone she had never met be her husband?

Moreover, Li Cheng was the descendant of that man and now controlled the entire arsenal. This is too outrageous. Ella could not accept it at this moment. Or rather, he could never accept it!

Li Cheng touched his nose and ignored Ella who was shouting loudly. He said to AI, “I want all his blueprints.”

AI immediately turns on with all kinds of lights and says, “This is being processed ..”

A few minutes later, the sound of the system sounded in Li Cheng's ears.

“Ding, dong, you have unlocked a new building, a huge storage!

“Ding, dong, you have unlocked the new building, the Deep energy extractor!

“Ding, dong, you have unlocked a new building, Royal Academy of Magic!

“Ding dong..”

[Deep storage]

[Description: The Profound Empire has a very deep understanding of spatial magic. Using spatial fluorite, they could create a gigantic space that could hold all the resources of an entire continent. Note that this space cannot accommodate living beings.]

[Level 1]

[Construction cost: 10 trillion crystals, 5,000 spatial fluorites]

[Effect: resource storage]

…

[Deep energy factor]

[Description: The Profound Empire has a deep understanding of magic energy. Using lasers, they can directly cut through the crystals to produce magic energy.]

[Level 1]

[Construction cost: 10 trillion crystals, 5,000 laser generators]

[Effect: changing magic energy]

…

As Li Cheng looked at the resources needed for the two buildings, he was shocked by the numbers. It's okay if every building needs 10 trillion crystals.

As for spatial fluorite, after the Spatial Goddess disappeared, it became a rare item on the black market. Each one would cost several billion gold coins.

Of course, this was no big deal to Li Cheng. As long as it was something money could buy, it was not a problem in his eyes.

As for the laser generator, it was an old antique from the Profound Kingdom. Manufacturing technology has long been lost. Similarly, it was not a problem for Li Cheng.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng said to the AI, “zero-seven-nine-five, upload all manufacturing blueprints.”

As soon as he said that, the mechanical voice of the AI sounded.

“Data search…

“Honourable descendants of the royal family, all manufacturing blueprints have been uploaded!”

At the same time, a series of system sounds rang out in Li Cheng's ears.

“Ding, dong, you have unlocked the blueprint for the Armrest of the Profound Magic Staff. Please, make it on the production line!

“Ding, dong, you have opened the blueprint for the sword hilt of Profound Sword. Please, make it on the production line! ”

…

“Ding, dong, you have opened the blueprint for the Mythical level Profound Armor. Please, make it on the production line! ”

…

“Ding dong! Since you have opened many blueprints, you have obtained the degree of Diamond, Skilled Craftsman. You have triggered a ten thousandfold increase and earned the title of Mythical class, Master Craftsman!”

After a few minutes, the sound of the system finally stopped. Li Cheng had opened countless blueprints at once.

There were all kinds of equipment, materials, charms, and even consumables production methods. Li Cheng looked roughly and found that there were actually over 5,000 blueprints. It had to be said that the foundation of the Profound Empire was still very strong.

At this moment, Li Cheng's gaze was fixed on things that were more useful to him now…
