Chapter 162: Setting Up Facilities, Combat Meeting
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, Little Rain and Purple Rose received the news from Li Cheng. After hesitating for a few minutes, Little Rain gritted her teeth and decided to listen to Li Cheng’s opinion. She led all her troops to his territory.
She happened to be in the Misty Forest and was about to conquer a certain secret realm, so she had enough time. To Little Rain, it was just giving up hundreds of billions of gold coins.
If this wave was as terrifying as Li Cheng had said, and she could leave her territory but preserve her strength and level, the 200,000 troops that survived would definitely be more important than hundreds of billions of gold coins.
Regarding Little Rain’s decision, Li Cheng did not object to her coming to his territory. As for Purple Rose, she was anxious. She quickly sent Li Cheng all kinds of messages.
“Netherworld, are you sure that the monster siege this time is really difficult?
“How confident are you?
“Don’t lie to me…”
Although the Rose Guild was also one of the three big guilds of the Divine Dragon Alliance, it was different from the other two guilds.
The Rose Guild was very poor. In reality, they did not have any help from large corporations to inject capital into her, nor did she charge any fees for its members.
Therefore, the 200 billion that the Rose Guild had exchanged this time was all the savings that Purple Rose had accumulated over the years. She had been frugal for countless years, and once she gave up on her territory, it meant giving up all her resources. All that money, down the drain.
Li Cheng knew her situation. He understood her anxiety and explained patiently, “Believe me, I’m a hundred percent sure about this!
“Listen to me, preserving your strength is definitely the best way to earn money, it’s the only way!
“Purple Rose, if your vision is restricted by a mere two hundred billion gold coins… That would be too disappointing.”
Hearing Li Cheng’s words, Purple Rose was shocked. ‘A mere two hundred billion gold coins?!?!’
That was 400 billion dollars in the real world. Ordinary people might not be able to earn that much even if they worked for tens of thousands of years.
However, hearing Li Cheng’s calm and magical words, Purple Rose was not as angry. She gritted her teeth and said in resolution, “Okay, I’ll believe you just this once!”
“You’ll thank your luck for making this decision.” After saying this, Li Cheng went back to his own business.
…
Half an hour later, Pearl had already used Rapid March to return.
After she came back, Li Cheng closed the city gate. He was ready to set up some defensive facilities. Anyway, he had too many crystals now, and those evil Gods’ targets were him. Hence, it was safe to be sure.
Thinking of this, he took his troops to the underground city, and proceeded to buy a lot of materials from the Demon Chamber of Commerce’s Immortal Sandy. The divine fragments of the ancient Demon God were of no use to him anyway.
After that, Li Cheng crazily produced more Profound energy cannons.
“Ding, dong, the Legendary Profound Energy Cannon is completed!
“Ding, dong, the Legendary Profound Energy Cannon is completed!
“Ding, dong…”
Rumble…
As the earth trembled, countless Profound energy cannons suddenly appeared on the pure white city walls of Li Cheng’s territory.
After 10 minutes, Li Cheng let out a long sigh of relief. He had set up 900,000 Profound energy cannons in one breath, densely covering his city walls. There were almost no gaps.
If someone with a fear of density was here, they would probably die on the spot.
At this point, the territory had a total of 100,000 Frost Towers and a million Profound energy cannons. Such a defensive line-up was something that even the City of Light could not fight with.
At this moment, the system’s voice suddenly rang in his ears.
“Ding, dong, respected Earl Netherworld, please, head to the Church of Light’s battle conference room to participate in the high-level meeting of the Legion.
“Ding, dong…”
Such a large-scale monster siege was considered a rare sight in a thousand years. The evil forces were usually scattered, so the kind camp was also frightened by the Goddess of Darkness’s actions this time.
For some reason, the Goddess of Darkness suddenly went berserk, but no matter what, the evil forces were causing trouble in the main dimension, so the good camp naturally had to respond.
Since the territory’s defense facilities were already set up, Li Cheng did not think much about it and directly walked into the portal.
The City of Light was still filled with holy and peaceful light everywhere. At this time, more players were visiting the City of Light to complete various quests.
Li Cheng ignored the players and walked into the depths of the church. When he passed where Asilia usually was, he found that Asilia was not there. He did not know where she had gone to, and this made a few players who wanted to exchange for items anxious.
“Greetings, Earl Netherworld!” Outside the conference room, two paladins bowed respectfully to Li Cheng.
They looked at Li Cheng with a hint of admiration in their eyes. Li Cheng’s reputation was very well-known by now. With his current reputation, all the NPCs in the entire lost continent had heard of his name.
Li Cheng nodded as a response to them before he pushed the door open and entered.
In the conference room, there was a large circle of people. All the leaders had arrived. To Li Cheng’s surprise, Asilia and two people wearing bishop’s clothing were also seated at the table.
Li Cheng frowned slightly and checked the information of the two bishops.
[Archbishop Arundel]
[Archbishop Meyev]
When he saw their names, Li Cheng’s eyelids twitched. He remembered that they were two ruthless people!
In his previous life, the future Goddess of Darkness would attack the surface of the Earth, and the City of Light would also be surrounded. At this time, the two bishops were completely boorish. Each of them had a magic staff and would often rush to the front, breaking through the enemy’s formation.
The two of them were both Mythical-grade existences. Although they were priests, they were also very powerful close-combat mages.
It was not until later that they ran out of mana. It seemed that Archbishop Arundel had used his belt to strangle a Legendary-grade demon to death.
When she saw Li Cheng, Asilia immediately smiled sweetly and waved at him, indicating for him to go over. Li Cheng did not say anything and sat down beside Asilia.
Commander Vic nodded to Li Cheng and said, “Alright, two archbishops and Earl Netherworld has arrived. Everyone’s here now.”
With the two archbishops participating in the meeting, Commander Vic naturally handed over the authority to preside over the meeting.
