Chapter 53 - Soaring Resources
Chapter 53: Soaring Resources
It was rumored that when the God of Creation created the continent, he left behind 16 floating islands.
These floating islands were actually floating continents from another plane. As long as they had sufficient energy, they could float in the air.
Most importantly, the floating islands had their own unique technology. Whether it was defense or offense, they were extremely powerful.
Li Cheng remembered that in his previous life, there was a player who had obtained Floating Island Number 13. He had used the relocation order to successfully transfer his territory there.
The result was obvious. His floating island had completely become a war fortress that terrified everyone!
If the players wanted to attack the floating island, they could only use flying troops. However, flying troops were extremely rare here. In addition to the floating island’s unique defense system, even if the entire world attacked it together, they might not be able to take it down.
As for the third floating island, according to Li Cheng’s estimation, its area was at least thousands of times larger than the thirteenth floating island!
“If I can control the third floating island, I won’t have to be afraid even if a high-level God attacks it non-stop!”
Thinking of this, Li Cheng did not hesitate to use it immediately. The voice of the system rang in his ears.
“Ding, dong! You’ve used the Floating Island Number Three Coordinates!
“Ding, dong! Floating Island Number Three is located at the Furnace of Death. Coordinates are 54322, 67821!”
Hearing the location of the target mentioned by the system, Li Cheng frowned.
Furnace of Death, this place was too dangerous.
He remembered that the Furnace of Death was located under the River Styx, and in the River Styx, there were countless terrifying existences living there. Just the number of Immortal-grade existences alone was huge. There were also all sorts of Gods living in the River Styx, countless Crown and Legendary troops, and they were all at the max level.
Moreover, the entire River Styx would provide them with a high amount of attribute bonuses.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng’s thoughts of going immediately were put aside. He did not want to die, so he could only leave it for the future. After all, he was determined to get the floating island!
At this time, Li Cheng’s gaze landed on the last spoils of war. There were countless dark green crystals the size of fingernails.
[Divine Power Crystal (Poison)]
[Description: The Divine Power Crystal condensed by the Goddess of Poison contains a large amount of her divine power.]
[Level: 1]
[Type: small]
[Effect: —]
Looking at the system’s introduction, Li Cheng really felt that it was a little ridiculous.
Divine Power Crystal. Just by looking at its name, one could tell that it was produced by a God. It could increase one’s divine power level.
Li Cheng did not expect that the system would actually increase his divine power level by 10,000. Unfortunately, Li Cheng did not have the ability to consume these crystals at the moment.
Li Cheng was still a mortal, and mortals could not enjoy divine power. This kind of crystal could only be given to a God.
Li Cheng immediately thought of Trelefany, but he quickly rejected it. This kind of Divine Power Crystal had been engraved with the mark of the Goddess of Poison. If he wanted to absorb it, he had to get rid of the mark on the crystal.
With Trelefany’s trash divine power, it would take at least a hundred years to get rid of the mark on such a crystal. It was not worth it. In the end, Li Cheng temporarily threw it into his backpack and left it for later.
After taking stock of the harvest, Li Cheng began to check the casualties of the troops.
After taking a glance, Li Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. There were no casualties among the troops.
Some of the Forst Marksmen’s HP had indeed been affected when they were retreating, but with the Goddess of Life’s Sigh, they were resurrected on the spot with full HP.
At this time, the Holy Light Priests were healing the troops. The HP of the troops was increasing at a visible rate.
The system’s notification rang again.
[Ding, dong! You’ve cleared a base of the Church of Poison. Total reward: 6,000 contribution points, 39,520 gold coins, 48,520 wood, 23,640 iron ores, 28,570 stones, 38,450 food, 100,000 crystals!]
[Ding, dong! You’ve triggered a 10,000-times increase. Total Reward: 60,000,000 contribution points, 395,200,000,000 gold coins, 485,200,000,000 wood, 236,400,000,000 iron ores, 285,700,000,000 stones, 384,500,000 food, 10,000,000 crystals!]
[Ding, dong! You’ve completely destroyed the Church of Poison stronghold in Death Valley. This matter has been widely spread across the continent. Your reputation value has increased by 1,000 points!]
[Ding, dong! You’ve triggered a 10,000-times increase. Your reputation has increased by 10,000,000 points!]
[Ding, dong! As your reputation value is extremely high, many NPCs like your territory. Territory Attraction has increased by 100 points!]
[Ding, dong! You’ve triggered a 10,000-times increase. Territory Attraction has increased by 1,000,000 points!]
After the system’s voice disappeared, Li Cheng also saw the news.
It had to be said that the Church of Poison was quite rich. After this wave, Li Cheng did not even know how much he had earned. Those gold coins, stone materials, food, and so on were coming in by the hundreds of billions of units. If this data were to be spread out, it was unknown how many people’s jaws would drop.
What made Li Cheng satisfied was that after cleaning up the three strongholds, there were actually tens of billions of crystals in his account. This time, he did not lack crystals anymore.
In addition, what Li Cheng did not expect was that his territory began to attract NPCs. Moreover, the attraction was as high as a million!
In fact, in the whole of Tribe, the players and many empires were in a competitive relationship. People on this continent would naturally choose to live in the players’ territory.
However, such people were rare. After all, compared to the other empires that had existed for thousands of years, the safety and prosperity of the players’ territories were not on the same level.
However, Li Cheng estimated that there would be many NPCs entering his Underworld. One had to know that in Tribe, civilians had combat strength!
All the NPCs that moved in had combat power. If he wanted to raise these NPCs, he would only need some food. However, Li Cheng did not lack resources at all.
At this moment, Li Cheng looked at the battle situation of the players. On the leaderboard, Pearl was still far ahead. She had killed more than 10,000 monsters, while the player in second place only killed more than 7,000.
Li Cheng estimated that in another hour, the monsters would be mostly cleared.
At this moment, the sound of a system notification rang in his ear.
“Ding, dong, you have an external call. Do you want to answer it?”
Li Cheng was a little confused, so he temporarily went offline for a while.
He took off the game helmet and stretched his stiff neck. He got up from the bed and opened the door, only to find that it was the game’s official staff.
Li Cheng thought that there was something going on, but he did not expect that he would be given a nutrient solution. It was enough for him to use for a few months.
With the gaming pod and a few months of nutrient solutions, Li Cheng’s offline time could be further compressed. He could also fully devote himself to the game.
