Chapter 172 - 168: Continent Legend Level!
Chapter 172: Chapter 168: Continent Legend Level!
Bright City, Kane Mansion.
Joyce didn’t chat much with Lis, both of them felt somewhat exhausted and needed to rest properly.
However, before leaving, Lis felt that Joyce seemed a bit different, although he was hiding it well, that slightly refined aura was quite unique.
Could this be the benefit that came from personally killing the Divine Incarnation?
After all, Joyce didn’t have a system panel to directly perceive the changes in himself.
But this was all good news; Golden Thigh’s strength might even step up to a new level because of this.
...
…
Lis returned to his bedroom, looking somewhat weary.
Even though Lis didn’t get the chance to intervene in the final battle, he bore the Spiritual Shock from the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts and remained highly alert, observing the situation on the battlefield.
It was only after the Blood Sacrifice Chaos in the Lower City District came to a complete end that Lis finally let out a sigh of relief.
The consequences of this Blood Sacrifice Chaos were considerably better than they were in his past life.
Lis estimated that around a thousand civilians died in this turmoil, a significant improvement from the nearly ten thousand casualties in his previous life.
Despite being tired, Lis still had unfinished business.
Summoning the system panel, Lis checked the freshly updated mission information.

Lis stroked his chin; the gains from this time were truly substantial!
The specialties “Red Slaughter,” “Divine…?” “Song of Courage,” if their effects are strong, that’s it.
The special landmark “Blood Sacrifice Chaos” awarded Lis a point of continent-level Legend Level, which is tantamount to greatly increasing Lis’s daily limit on Experience Points, quite a boon.
11 million points of Experience are decent, but among all rewards, it’s just average; Lis will soon be able to gain a large amount of Experience.
This Status “Anger of the Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts” might look frightening, but Lis isn’t worried.
The influence of the All Beast Church in this world is actually not that significant, after all, the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts is just a deity with Weak Divine Power, and doesn’t even rank within the Evil God Church.
As for the last item, the Special Secret Realm Crystal Stone “Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts’ Expedition” is somewhat interesting.
Lis still has two secret realm crystals in hand, a Bronze Level “Nest of Undead Tree Demon” and a Gold Level “McGwire’s Death Tomb.”
After thinking for a while, Lis summoned the “Faction” system module, setting up a new secret realm selection page within the “White Dove Chamber of Commerce,” and bound these three crystal stones in Lis’s possession to it.
Players could directly enter these three secret realms from the “White Dove Chamber of Commerce,” at a cost, similar to how players enter public instance secret realms.
Lis set the price for the Bronze Level “Nest of Undead Tree Demon” at 1 Gold Coin, and the Gold Level “McGwire’s Death Tomb” at 100 Gold Coins.
As for the special secret realm “Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts’ Expedition,” Lis had just tried to enter it to take a look. It was the official start of the expedition battle after the descent of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, and the process was similar to the previous battles, but for those players, it would be of Hell Level difficulty.
Without being at Gold Level, it would be difficult even to survive the aftermath, let alone clear the instance.
Lis also set a symbolic price of 10,000 Gold Coins for this secret realm, but Lis granted each player who officially joined the White Dove Chamber of Commerce one free entry per month to the “Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts’ Expedition,” as an entertaining instance to broaden those players’ horizons.
“Hmm~”
Having prepared everything, Lis stretched and was ready to lie down on the bed to rest.
Having withstood the Spiritual Shock from a deity, Lis’s spirit was quite fatigued.
…
In Bright City, Feis Royal Palace.
King Morton was sitting on the throne in the main hall, with his subjects reporting something to him.
Finance Minister Blaifu Jite stood to one side, speaking respectfully:
“Your Majesty, the losses in the Lower City District have been roughly estimated.”
“About nine hundred civilians were killed or injured, and the Golden Lion Knights, the Royal Mage Corps, and other elite troops lost more than ninety people, mostly casualties that occurred when the Magic Beasts first attacked Mingzhu Street and Faise Street.”
“Mingzhu Street was completely destroyed, and the buildings on Faise Street and Golden Lily Lane suffered little damage.”
“This descent of the Divine Incarnation of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts has caused economic losses to Bright City of about two million Feis Gold Coins, most of which are from the loss of Mingzhu Street.”
Hearing the figure of two million Gold Coins, the expression of Morton Fis didn’t change in the slightest.
As the wealthiest kingdom on the East Continent, such losses were not enough to cripple the kingdom, but what worried Morton more was the casualties and adverse effects caused by the descent of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts.
After all, Bright City was a significant trading hub and commercial capital on the Gedo River, and the occurrence of an Evil God’s descent in the Lower City District could make some merchants hesitant about coming to Bright City.
It’s estimated that the reconstruction of Mingzhu Street and the restoration of logistics would take at least a year.
Morton tapped his throne lightly with his right hand, asking to an adjacent Bevis:
“How is Mingzhu Street now?”
“The remains of the Evil God have been dealt with by ‘Judgement Flame,’ who also used Earth Magic to fill in the deep pits created by the battle. Currently, the Golden Lion Knights are working with the Dawn Church to treat the wounded nearby and bury the dead.”
“Hmm. Have those people from the Dawn Church put in more effort, they’ll probably be quite willing to have this opportunity.”
Morton stood from his throne and paced slowly back and forth.
“I shudder to think of the damage to the kingdom should the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts truly have descended.”
“What do you think we should reward Lis with?”
