Chapter 72: Lillian

Li Cheng would naturally not release Lillian's exclusive equipment. However, each piece of equipment required a trillion shadow points. Compared to the Phantom Pearl, it was many times more expensive. Five pieces of equipment would consume a total of five trillion shadow points!

For ordinary players, this was an impossible mission since they had only been playing for three days. However, to Li Cheng, this was simply too easy. Even if it was ten times more expensive, Li Cheng could easily accomplish it, let alone five trillion.

Material catalog also has column ‘the remaining amount’. However, Li Cheng did not see it. The reason is very simple. He planned to complete the big task and buy all the items in the store. After all, no one would complain about having too many consumables like materials.

Moreover, there is no expiration date. It was just a matter of building more warehouses. Moreover, seeing how it was a world event, there would definitely be some rare ingredients listed.

As for the list of consumables, there were all kinds of potions that players could exchange for. Some could recover HP, speed up their troops, and restore morale. No matter what consumption items were listed, those items also had levels. Li Cheng once again scrolled all the way down.

[Speed Scroll (Legend), 10,000,000 shadow points. Number remaining: 1,000]

[Highest Life Banquet (Legenda), 10,000,000 shadow points. Number remaining: 1,000]

[Highest Inspiration Scroll (Legend), 10,000,000 shadow points. Number remaining: 1,000]

There were three consumable items, and they were all Legendary grade. As for the items on the consumption list, regardless of whether they were high-level or low-level items, he planned to purchase them all.

No one will complain about having too many of these items. In the future, if he had an alchemy table, low-level potions could be synthesized into high-level potions. This way, he would have more high-tier potions that could help him.

After closing the shop, Li Cheng had a plan in mind. Simply put, he only needed to kill monsters and earn more points!

Thinking of this, Li Cheng opened the map. Suddenly, a series of system notifications rang in his ears.

“Ding, dong, you're on a special map. You cannot get any map information. Please, explore it yourself!

“Ding, dong, since your hero Shadow Princess Lillian is very familiar with this map, all the fog of war on the current map has dispersed!

“Ding, dong, you've found the map, Shadow Swamp. As the first player in the world to discover this map, your reward is ten reputation points!

“Ding, dong, you've found the map, Ghost Beast Lair. As the first player in the world to discover this map, your reward is ten reputation points!

“Ding, dong, you have triggered ten thousand times the amplification and gained a hundred thousand reputation points!

“Ding, dong, you have triggered ten thousand times the amplification and gained a hundred thousand reputation points!

“Ding…

“Ding, dong, you have completed the quest, Exploring the Shadows Swamp. Your reward is five thousand shadow points! You have unlocked the next phase of the search. Related searches have been distributed. Please, look!

“Ding, dong, you have triggered ten thousand times the amplification and obtained five million shadow points!

“Ding, dong, you've found the map, Shining Fortress. This map is dangerous. Please, don't go near him!

“Ding, dong, you've found the map, Shadow Mirror. This map is dangerous. Please, don't go near him!

“Ding dong!”

System notifications rang for a full minute before stopping. Li Cheng was also slightly stunned. In the end, he could only sigh at the Shadow World. It was indeed the land of Lillian's birth, so she could be said to be very familiar with the surroundings here and in turn, caused the entire map to be activated immediately!

With just this move, Li Cheng was many times ahead of the other players. Every time those players arrived somewhere, they had to explore the map carefully, afraid they would inadvertently find a nest of terrifying creatures.

However, Li Cheng was different. He knew where there were high-level monsters and where they could not go. For example, there is a bottomless whirlpool in the north. That's where the Shadow Dragon is.

In the Shadow World, even if a powerful immortal God ventured there, the Shadow Dragon would be able to scatter its ashes. It was the number one forbidden place in the Shadow World!

At the same time, as a world event, there is naturally a lot of activity and searching. The players could at most receive one quest at the same time, and that was the normal kind. However, Li Cheng had received all the searches by default, which were over 30 searches at the same time!

After this wave of system notifications, he had completed all exploration quests, earning over 30 million reputation points for himself. The shadow points he obtained were even more ridiculous, reaching a terrifying 1.2 billion!

Thinking of this, Li Cheng immediately looked at the map. At this moment, the Shadow World had opened up and there were some places that even Li Cheng had never visited in the past.

In his previous life when the event had ended, the players had yet to explore a tenth of the Shadow World. Li Cheng marked some red dots on the map and set the route for advancing. Then, he looked towards Lillian and said, “Lillian, check if there are any problems with my route.”

Lillian looked at him and pondered for a moment. After quietly modifying some places on the map, he said to Li Cheng, “In this way, there will be no problems, Mr.”

At first glance, Lillian's mark does not seem to follow common sense. There are some places where they will take a detour and then come back. However, Li Cheng nodded in response.

The Shadow World was different from the main world. The path that one must walk is also very special. Sometimes, one might seem to have only taken one step, but in the reality of the Shadow World, one had taken countless steps.

Therefore, Lillian's role in this event was really too big, as expected of her old nest. He was indeed worthy of being an SSS-class hero who did not even need to use a progress stone. He was just a cheat-like existence!

Compared to the other heroines, even Princess Frost Sylvia had used advancement stones before. Among the few heroes he currently had, only Lillian was a genuine SSS-class hero!

After drawing up the battle plan, Li Cheng led his troops to move quickly. The first red dot he marked was a nest of ferocious beasts.

A normal two-headed phantom beast was a level 20 level four monster. Li Cheng remembered that there were many level 50 Gold-class bosses in his lair. He could use it to level up, seeing how much he was lacking in experience points at the moment.

Looking at the nest, there was nothing there. However, Li Cheng knew that there were at least hundreds of thousands of ghost beasts hidden there. If a player breaks into a nest, he will not even have time or place to cry.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng did not hesitate and immediately ordered, “In five minutes, clean this nest for me!”
