Chapter 640 Venturing Deep In the Dark
Meanwhile, seeing the 10% service fee for the navigation system, the talents in the stronghold couldn't help but complain.
"As expected of the Shadowcrest family!"
"What a profiteer!"
"Even in times of crisis, they didn't forget to cut off leaks."
"Just get used to it. To be honest, besides defrauding us of money, all they did was for our good."
From the credit system to the navigation system, which one wasn't life-saving?
"It seems so…"
Without the Shadowcrest family, their lives would probably be hanging by a thread. How could they still have the energy to complain?
With the dark energy cleared out of their systems and the majestic strength shown by Liam, their minds were clearer than ever.
Thinking about it, besides claiming some money, the Shadowcrest family had helped them overcome one difficulty after another.
Soon, availing themselves of the full navigation system, some of the top talents began to band together, wanting to explore deep into the Dark Void Domain.
Before that, however, they lined up at the credit station to borrow strands of causality.
"How much are you borrowing?" Eternal Voyager asked.
Eternal Voyager was more proficient and experienced in controlling such a complicated stronghold.
Leaving Wanderer to control the Shadow Void Ship, she was helping Liam manage the stronghold.
"One billion crystallized causality," Fosca muttered in anticipation.
"Potential S, Strength A+, eligible for the maximum credit line. Here you are."
Getting the billion crystallized causality, Fosca couldn't help but tremble.
Although he was one of the secret prodigies—a peak prodigy in the Devourer faction—holding a billion crystallized causality was still a huge burden on his spirit.
Carrying heavy debt and wealth at the same time, Fosca even thought of escaping the Dark Void Domain and living in seclusion.
"Huh~ Money is really evil!" Calming down, he walked back to his teammate, preparing for their hunt.
Soon, all the other talents began to max out their credit one after another.
Going deep into the unknown, even the rich had to arm themselves with as many strands of causality as possible.
Looking at the crystallized causality flowing like water, Liam also began to get nervous.
"One trillion… Two trillion… Three trillion… Too much!"
Before his father left, he had given him five trillion crystallized causality.
Seeing it about to drain before his eyes, Liam couldn't help but feel anxious.
What if they escape?
What if they band together and decide not to pay?
What if all of these talents die and can't pay their debt?
Although the more they borrowed, the more he could earn, lending such a large amount of causality was still nerve-racking.
With the Ether Refiner his father had, it would take about twenty thousand years to accumulate one trillion crystallized causality.
Soon after the credit spree, the crystallized causality he had went from five trillion to a mere few hundred billion.
"Huh~ Too much!"
"I wish you a safe and plentiful harvest. Don't die on me …"
Clenching his fist, he wished for their safe return for the first time.
A few days later, passing through an invisible barrier, the Shadow Void Ship reached the middle layer of the Dark Void Domain.
"This is the middle layer of the Dark Domain?"
"The chaotic miasma is three times thicker!"
"The path of law is harder to use."
"Even the laws are harder to mobilize."
"Tsk, tsk. With such restrictions, we could only exert about 70-80% of our strength."
Analyzing the place, they couldn't help but feel solemn.
Being weaker while fighting a stronger enemy couldn't be worse.
"Isn't it just dark beasts? Let's go! I can't wait to fight one," Max muttered in excitement.
"What a brute!"
Rolling their eyes, they looked at the map projection, finding the closest enemy.
A few hours later, they quickly met up with the first tier-11 dark beast in the competition.
"It's a feral tier-11 dark beast, perfect for a warm-up." Maximus smiled, inviting his family to clear out a wave.
Getting out of the void ship, they suddenly felt the suffocation of the chaotic miasma.
Waving his hand, Maximus blessed them with a calming origin barrier.
"Fight to your heart's content. I am here."
Getting their father's encouragement, they swooped toward the enemy without hesitation.
"You can go too. It's time to move after a long seclusion," Maximus said to his wives.
"Oh~ Then keep your eyes on us, Husband~."
Not fighting for a long time, their bodies were somewhat rusty.
Soon, clashing with the tier 11 feral dark beast, they felt a heavy pressure.
"How strong!"
Withstanding the first wave of their attacks, they felt a little shocked.
Such an attack was enough to kill a normal tier 11 individual over a hundred times.
Witnessing the dark beast take it on like nothing; they turn more solemn.
"Don't back down, it's just a big chunk of meat who couldn't dodge our attack nor hit us."
"It's seemed so, just a tank with all defense!"
Calming down, they began to beat the dark beast like a punching bag.
Bam~ Bam~ Bam~
"It's really thick!"
Barely causing any damage, they felt a little amaze.
Unfortunately, after purification, only a few little pieces of material would be left.
Soon, with the dark beasts' clumsy movements, they began to whittle their life one by one.
After a few days of siege, they finally killed all the hundreds of tier-11 dark beasts.
"Huh~ Boring!"
Finishing the fight, they felt a little tired.
Besides having thicker health, these dark beasts didn't offer any challenges.
Killing them mechanically with brute force was too laborious for their minds.
"This is only a feral dark beast. Don't be too complacent," Maximus warned.
Studying the structure of the dark beasts, Maximus knew the higher the grade, the stronger their combat abilities would be.
If not, Maximus was confident he could kill a tier-12 dark beast just by grinding it to death.
Hearing their father's reminder, they quickly calmed down.
Indeed, feral beasts were merely cannon fodder.
Having a thick health bar was already pretty good.
"Let's go. The fluctuations of the fight already alerted the surrounding dark beasts," Maximus urged.
Seeing the map showing dense waves of dark beasts charging toward their location, they couldn't help but feel a cold chill.
With billions of dark beasts heading their way, no matter how strong they were, they would be drowned.
"The dark void domain is too dangerous!"
Without the map projection, they wouldn't have even known they were about to be ambushed.
"Let's go!"
Collecting their spoils, they quickly left the area.
