Chapter 9: Misty Forest, Clearing the Zombies

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at his troops busily moving the resources, Li Cheng was deep in thought. It seemed that he had to find some specialized moving teams.

For example, gnomes and dwarves were all good workers. Li Cheng took out the Resource Collection tool from his backpack.

“Ding, dong! Resource Collection has been successfully used. You’ve successfully obtained two million gold coins!”

Looking at the 2,000,000 gold coins that he had obtained in an instant, Li Cheng rubbed his hands excitedly. These items in the game shop were really bug-like existences.

The Resource Collection tool was considered as additional income. It did not consume the daily output of the resource points. Therefore, the higher the level of the resource points, the higher the income. If it was a Mythical-grade resource point, one could obtain hundreds of millions of gold coins in one go.

After completing everything, Li Cheng led his troops back to his territory. This operation had earned him 4,000,000 gold coins.

After dismissing his subordinates and letting them search for food on their own, he went to the canteen to get some food.

A few minutes later, all the troops were fully rested and reorganized.

Li Cheng gave the order to bring sufficient rations. He was ready to attack the Misty Forest. Although there were many places nearby that he had not explored yet, the current Li Cheng already looked down on them. Today was also the first day of the game, so all players had a one-day territory novice protection period.

Therefore, Li Cheng was not afraid that something would happen to his territory. Now was a good time to explore, so how could he miss it?

Li Cheng waved his hand and ordered, “Let’s go!”

The Misty Forest was not close to Li Cheng’s territory. If it was an ordinary player, they would have to walk for a long time to reach it. However, Li Cheng was not afraid. He had 10 times the speed of movement. When he rushed, it was as if he was on a plane.

In just an hour, Li Cheng had reached the edge of the Misty Forest. The surrounding sky had already begun to dim and wisps of mist lingered around.

At this time, the sun had also disappeared from the sky. In its place was a crescent moon, emitting a cold light in the sky.

The moonlight was like water, covering the entire Misty Forest with a blanket of silver light, making it seem mysterious and beautiful.

The system notification rang at the right time.

“Ding, dong, congratulations on discovering the new map Misty Forest. As the first player to discover this area, you’re hereby rewarded one reputation point.

“Ding, dong, you’ve triggered the ten thousand times amplification system. Obtained ten thousand reputation points!”

Speaking of the Misty Forest, this was a place that many players loved and hated. They loved the fact that this place was extremely rich in resources and that it would also produce many rare troops.

They hated it because this place...was filled with danger. Countless players died here during their first visit.

Looking at the endless Misty?Forest in front of him, Li Cheng frowned slightly. He prepared to clear the bosses in the forest first because the first kills of the bosses were still there.

After marking a spot on the map, Li Cheng commanded, “Let’s go!”

The troops who received the order immediately started moving.

In a few minutes, Li Cheng arrived at his destination. The place was extremely dangerous and it was emitting a strong rancid smell.

The pitch-black ground looked like a decomposed corpse.

Countless evil creatures were gathered in the Misty?Forest. At that moment, countless zombies were wandering aimlessly. These were ordinary villagers who were infected by poison.

[Zombies]

[Level: Level 5]

[Level: Level 3]

These creatures were relatively powerful in the early stages of the game, and there were many of them. There were more than 10,000 of them in front of him. Judging from the situation, there must be millions of them in the entire Misty Forest.

The most special thing about these zombies was that they had a skill—infection!

When they attacked, there was a chance that their enemies would be infected by the virus. If they were careless, they would be killed immediately after drinking the holy water from the Church of Light.

Otherwise, the infected would turn into new zombies in a few minutes. To be honest, these zombies had made the players in their previous lives suffer a lot.

At that time, countless players came to farm monsters, but all of them failed. The number of zombies had even doubled.

However, Li Cheng would definitely not make such a mistake. His current strength was not something that ordinary players could compare to. These powerful zombies were just EXP in front of Li Cheng.

Li Cheng gently waved his hand and ordered, “Lillian, tell the Frost Marksmen to release the Frost Arrow Rain and clear these zombies.”

“Yes, Sir!” Lillian immediately took action after receiving the order.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless Frost Arrows fell from the sky and instantly formed a net of arrows, covering the entire zombie territory. The poor zombies did not have time to react at all. The moment they were covered by the Frost Arrow Rain, they lost their life force.

Moreover, the Frost Marksmen’s Arrow Rain was not easy to deal with. As long as one zombie was killed, the frost would explode and attack all the zombies nearby.

Therefore, the efficiency of the Frost Arrow Rain was simply terrifying. In a short while, the zombies fell, one after another.

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

“Ding, dong! Your troops have killed two thousand level three zombies, obtained four hundred experience points, and successfully triggered the ten thousand times amplification system. Your troops have obtained four hundred thousand experience points, you have obtained forty thousand experience points!

“Ding, dong! One of your Frost Marksmen levels has been upgraded, currently level seven.

“Ding, dong! You’ve leveled up. Currently, level ten!

“Ding, dong! Your level has reached the upper limit. Please change your job class in time to unlock the new upper limit.”

The countless zombies from before all fell to the ground, turning into countless experience points which were pouring into Li Cheng’s side.

The levels of his Frost Marksmen kept rising. By the time they had cleared out the nearly 10,000 zombies, all of them had reached their maximum levels.

Lillian had reached level nine and Li Cheng had reached the maximum level. Unfortunately, Li Cheng had not changed his class yet, so he only had five free attribute points each time he leveled up. As a Lord, his combat power was pitifully low.

However, there was one thing that made him the most powerful. As a Lord, he could be resurrected in his territory after he died. As long as the Lord’s Hall in the Underworld was not destroyed, he could be resurrected indefinitely.

Once the Lord’s Hall was destroyed, the territory would need to be rebuilt and everything would have to start anew.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng shook his head and continued to command the troops to clean up the remaining zombies.

Half an hour later, the zombies disappeared from everyone’s sight.

At this time, Li Cheng’s progress of the Lord’s mission had reached 133.24/300,000.

The Heart of Massacre’s repair progress was 116..25 million/1 billion.
