Chapter 70: Entering the Shadow World

“If you can't even lead an army of 10 million, you better go home, take a shower, and sleep. As for revenge, never think about it. What right of trash to think of revenge?” Li Cheng did not care about the formalities and said directly to Pearl.

Hearing this, Pearl was shocked.

Thas right. If he could not even lead an army of 13 million, what could he do to take revenge? Just said – words?

In the past, he could tell that he was not strong enough, but Li Cheng had given him strength. If he couldn't even control this army, he would really have to go home and take a bath.

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 said nothing more. If these 13 million troops were to really fight, no one would be his opponent. It was never really about the number of soldiers but the skill of the commander. This army was perfect for Pearl to practice her skills.

After all the troops had gathered, Li Cheng temporarily handed over all the priests to Asilia, from the fifth-level middle priest to the Li Cheng priest himself.

Among the Asilia skills, he had additional healing skills. You could say the most suitable.

After making sure that the defensive towers in his territory were all operational, Li Cheng did not leave the troops to defend the city. If that magical trap, city wall, and Legendary defensive tower were unable to defend its territory from the enemy when he was not here, its defense forces would be useless as well.

Unlike ordinary players, Li Cheng could control his way to the Shadow World, meaning 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 immediately paved his way into the Shadow World. Instantly, a dark gray teleportation door that was spinning nonstop appeared in front of him. Li Cheng gestured to Pearl and walked in as he followed behind.

…

After feeling weightless, Li Cheng once again felt the ground beneath his feet. At the same time, he heard the system notification ringing.

“Ding, dong, you have entered a special map, Shadow World!

“Ding, dong, Shadow World is a special aircraft independent from the main world. Please careful!

“Ding, dong, as the first player in the world to enter Shadow World, you have earned a hundred reputation points!

“Ding, dong, you have triggered amplification 10,000 times and gained one million reputation points!”

As the sound of the system fell, Li Cheng began to measure 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 no stranger to the Shadow World so he quickly adapted to it. Sylvia's ice blue hair that had originally also turned dark gray.

At this moment, Pearl regained her senses. Only then did he confirm that he had entered the Shadow World. He could not help but feel a little surprised. The time was now past 10am and it was almost two hours before the Shadow World opened.

As a top player, Pearl knew very well what it meant to enter two hours earlier! Even though it was only two hours, these two hours were enough to do many things.

Even if ordinary players came two hours earlier than others, their progress would be much faster than others, let alone super strong players like Li Cheng.

While Pearl was deep in thought, Lillian suddenly waved her hand, and countless Heavenly Knights swarmed towards the shadow. Suddenly, a strange ear-piercing scream came from a short distance away. At the next moment, a system notification rang in Li Cheng's ear.

“Ding, dong, your team has managed to kill the boss of the Golden class, the Ghost Beings, the two-headed ghost beast. You have gained EXP…

“Ding, dong, you have triggered an increase of 10,000 times and gained EXP…

“Ding, dong, your Heavenly Knights have leveled up, currently at level two!

“Ding, dong, your Heavenly Knights have leveled up, currently at level ten!

“Ding dong! You have obtained five hundred contribution points from the Light Church. You have triggered ten thousand times the amplification and obtained five hundred million contribution points from the Light Church!

“Ding dong! You have gained thirty thousand shadow points. You have triggered ten thousand times the amplification and obtained three hundred million shadow points!

“Ding dong!”

After a series of system notifications, Pearl finally saw a monstrous monster that was over five meters tall slowly fall to the ground where the Heavenly Knights attacked.

Its body is made up entirely of gray shadows, like a carnivorous creature. It had two big ugly heads. His body was hidden in the Shadow World, fully integrated with the surrounding scenery. It was completely undetectable!

Li Cheng did not find anything strange about this. Monsters in the Shadow World had one main characteristic, which was difficult to detect. In his previous life, when the players attacked this place, they suffered greatly. In the end, the players had to cast scouting spells with every step they took.

This two-headed Ghost Beast was a level 50 Gold-class Boss. Under the attack of the Heavenly Knights, it died instantly.

Lillian looked at the corpse of the Ghost Beast and sighed. “They were just ordinary ghost dogs in the past. I don't know why they became like this.”.

Seeing Lillian being uninspired, Li Cheng walked up to her and gently rubbed his head while saying calmly, “If the Shadow Dragon wants to keep the balance of the Shadow World, it should allow the existence of evil. Everything is relative.”

“This is a very wrong view, Earl Netherworld!” Hearing Li Cheng's words, Asilia was clearly displeased. He looked at Li Cheng with a serious expression and said angrily, “All evil must be eliminated and destroyed!”

Hearing this, the corner of Li Cheng's mouth involuntarily twitched. He forgot that there was still Saintess in his army. Asilia was the most devout of the Light Gods, so she naturally believed in the tricks of the Light Gods.

However, he, Li Cheng, was neutral. He did not have the heart of the Saintess Holy Mother.

So what if he's good? So what if he's evil? It's just that their point of view is different and their nature is different. Therefore, these two camps were born to be hostile. What does all this have to do with him?

Li Cheng did not explain much. He chose to ignore Asilia and instead, focus on the reward she received. This is what he wanted!
