Chapter 72 - Super Large-scale Event, Shadow Crisis

Pearl looked at the troops coming out of Li Cheng’s territory, so shocked that she could not close her mouth. Then, she revealed a bitter smile. Now, she finally understood how big the gap between her and Li Cheng was.

After Li Cheng’s troops were counted, the three heroines were waiting for his order.

At this moment, Li Cheng took out the Dragon Soul from his backpack. Although the Dragon Soul had a little over 10 million energy points, it could deal more than 10 million damage. After all, the full power of the Dragon Soul was 20 trillion.

If the Dragon Soul was fully charged, it would be able to withstand 20 trillion damage. At that time, even if a true God descended, weaklings like Trelefany and Ella would have to fight for a few days.

“Ding, dong! You’re about to extract the Crown-grade Frost Dragon’s bloodline to replenish the energy of the Dragon Soul. Are you sure?

“Hint—after absorbing the energy, the dragon’s health will be reduced by half. The effect lasts for seven days.”

There was a price for the Dragon Soul to absorb energy. The first time energy was extracted, a dragon’s health would be halved for seven days. The second time, the dragon’s health would permanently be halved, and for the third time, the dragon would die.

Even Sylvia, who had the bloodline of the ancient Dragon God, would enter a coma for thousands of years after extracting her bloodline a few times. Her attributes would also drop rapidly.

At this time, Li Cheng raised the Dragon Soul and aimed it at one of the Frost Dragons. Immediately, a shapeless and terrifying wave of energy spread out and enveloped it, and in the next moment, the Frost Dragon’s HP was directly halved as it roared in pain.

At the same time, the system’s voice rang in Li Cheng’s ears.

“Ding, dong, you’ve extracted some energy from a Frost Dragon. The Dragon Soul has obtained a hundred thousand points of Frost Dragon energy!

“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification. The Dragon Soul has obtained one billion points of Frost Dragon energy!”

As the system’s voice fell, the Dragon Soul in Li Cheng’s hand emitted an extremely dazzling blue light.

Sylvia, who was standing by the side, was once again shocked. She could clearly sense that the energy within the Dragon Soul was extremely abundant, at least dozens of times more than before.

No one else could clearly see it as she did. The energy within the Dragon Soul was extremely difficult to replenish. Even if all the Frost Dragons in front of her were sucked dry, it would be impossible for them to produce so much energy.

Right now, Li Cheng was even more mysterious in Sylvia’s eyes.

When Li Cheng saw the effect of the 10,000-times amplification, he was quite satisfied. With the results of this experiment, he no longer hesitated. He aimed the Dragon Soul at the 1,000 Frost Dragons, replenishing one trillion energy points.

He estimated that the maximum barrier of the Dragon Soul could be expanded to 10,000 bars. In other words, it could block 1 trillion damage. The only pity was that the barrier could only be used on a fixed basis and it could not be moved.

After putting away the Dragon Soul, Li Cheng took out the passage made by the Phantom Goddess from his backpack and a dark gray mist-like item appeared in his hand. Li Cheng crushed it without thinking.

Kacha…

The moment he crushed it, the space in front of him changed and twisted rapidly as a terrifying aura spread out. At the same time, the system’s voice rang in Li Cheng’s ears.

“Ding, dong, you’ve successfully used the Legendary-grade Shadow Tunnel and opened the passage to the Shadow World!

“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification. The passage between the Shadow World and the main world has been fully opened!

“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered the only hidden event, Shadow Crisis, and gained one thousand Reputation Points!

“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered a ten thousand times amplification and obtained ten million Reputation Points!

“World Announcement. Dragon God Alliance player Netherworld has successfully opened the passage to the Shadow World. The passage between the main world and the Shadow World has a time limit. It will last for three days!

“The Shadow Dragon has entrusted all adventurers from other worlds to enter the Shadow World to clean up hidden evil. This time-sensitive quest has been distributed to all players!

“Complete the quest and kill the monster. You can obtain Shadow Points and consume points. You can talk to the NPCs in your territory and exchange various items, equipment, and weapons with them!

“Hint—the passage will open at twelve noon. The Shadow World’s extremely dangerous. All players, please, accurately assess your own strength!”

Hearing the world announcement, all the players were stunned because in their territories, there was suddenly an additional monster from the Shadow World, which was a system NPC!

[What’s the situation?]

[I’m shivering. There’s a very strong monster in my territory. Will he attack me? SOB SOB SOB… I can’t beat him!]

[Don’t panic, girls. Come to me. I’ll protect you!]

[Girls didn’t listen to him. He’s just trying to scare you. That’s an NPC, not a monster!]

[F*ck! According to the official website, this is a big event. This is our chance, everyone!]

[F*ck! Netherworld boss, you’re the GM of the game, right?]

[Everyone, look at the NPC’s shop. You can really exchange for a lot of things. There are even Legendary soldiers!]

At this moment, the players’ territories were shrouded in a fog. Following which, envoys from the Shadow World appeared. These envoys were usually ghosts, natives of the Shadow World who belonged to the neutral camp.

Hence, whether it was the evil camp or the kind camp, they could all see the NPCs from the Shadow World.

The players looked at the NPC’s shop and drooled. They wished they could just take all the items in the shop as the items were not bad at all.

All of a sudden, all the players were gearing up and sharpening their knives.

Eagle Alliance, Heaven’s Union.

Eve was also browsing through the shop and her eyes gradually lit up. The items inside were also very attractive to her. Who would not be envious of the Mythical-grade equipment and Legendary soldiers inside?

In other games, no matter what the activity was, Eve would always be the first to obtain it. Such exclusive equipment should be her personal items. However, when she thought of Li Cheng, her lips curled into a cold smile.

“It seems like all the strong players in the world will enter the Shadow World. Netherworld, you’ve been in the limelight recently. You know, there aren’t just one or two people who want you to suffer.”

At that moment, Li Cheng was a little stunned when he heard the world announcement. He merely opened a shadow tunnel, but it was able to trigger a 10,000-times amplification that it started a super large-scale event?

Of course, he knew about the Shadow Crisis event. According to his memories from his previous life, this event should only appear a few years later. He had participated in it the entire time, so he naturally remembered it very clearly.

However, the problem was that the event opened now instead of in a few years’ time. The rest of the players might not be very powerful even if each of them had a few hundred thousand soldiers each. The game had only opened its servers for two days, yet they had to go to the Shadow World. Would it be sending them to their deaths?
