I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1009 - Chapter 1009 Chapter 1010 Blade of the Apocalypse_1

Chapter 1009: Chapter 1010: Blade of the Apocalypse_1 Chapter 1009: Chapter 1010: Blade of the Apocalypse_1 The final day of the second tier combat power assessment was upon us, and the elemental factions mighty army marched towards the human faction.

Among the examinees of the elemental faction, besides the elemental warriors, many warriors from other factions were present too, all recruited from the fallen factions’ recruitment points.

Occupying nearly nine-tenths of the entire map, the elemental faction had an abundance of resources. Even after using them to build up their main city, there remained a surplus, which could only be put to use by recruiting more soldiers, for keeping them was a waste.

To prevent low morale, each examinee’s team had preferably soldiers of only one race, at most two. Tuya, the leader of the elemental faction examinees, had a group of second and third tier soldiers, and also two fierce Behemoth beasts that were recruited today from the dungeon factions’ leftover Behemoth points.

All the Titan giants were given to Tuya. It could be said that among all examinees, Tuya possessed the mightiest army, which constantly kept an excited and thrilled expression on his face, filled with pride.

After a day of manufacturing and repairing, the number of Titan giants had been restored to double digits, reaching twelve. At this stage, without the appearance of a seventh tier troop, such a team could sweep across the whole map.

“Such a powerful force, going against a single human faction’s examinee, really seems like overkill. I think Tutan alone would be enough to sweep him away.”

“Indeed, two Behemoth beasts comparable to boss-level monsters are almost a guaranteed victory. In fact, I believe he couldn’t handle even one of them, and these are creatures on par with boss-level monsters!”

“The system assigned him to a single faction, which clearly means that he possesses strength surpassing all of us present. We must not be complacent, who knows what kind of ace he holds? I heard this world has a forbidden spell called ‘Apocalypse Judgment’, sealed within an artifact known as the Doomsday Blade. With it, even a seventh tier unit, no matter the number, could be annihilated!”

“How could someone possess such a powerful weapon, are you joking?”

“It’s true. I once met a big fairy in the forest, who told me so. It even gave me a quest to find a berry known as blueberry. At that time, I found a mine instead, so I didn’t have time to look for any berries and gave up on that quest…”

“I see, so it seems to be true then, that such terrifying weapons actually exist in this world… Wait, why did that big fairy tell you about the Doomsday Blade while asking you to find berries for it?”

At this moment, Tuya suddenly interjected, “I also had a chain quest like that. The witch who issued the quest started by telling me a lot about the Titan giants, and then she said she needed three scorpion venom sacs. These chain quests are always easy at the beginning, but as you go deeper, they get harder and harder.”

Everyone fell silent, then looked at the fool who had spoken before as if he were an idiot.

The examinee, riding on his horse and expressionless, moved forward a little before finally letting out a wail, “My god, what have I missed, the Doomsday Blade, we’re talking about the Doomsday Blade!”

Laughter of joy erupted among all the examinees of the elemental faction.

“Alright, even if you had obtained the Doomsday Blade, the outcome would be the same, everyone would pass the second tier combat power assessment,” Tutan said, patting his shoulder in consolation.

“True, true, take it easy. Nothing you obtain in this world can be taken out anyhow. Even if you had that artifact, you could only show off in this world. Think this way and you’ll feel much better…”

Zuo Lan’s mouth twitched as he nodded and sighed. Although everyone was correct, if he could complete this task and ultimately obtain the Blade of Doomsday, his evaluation after the assessment would definitely be different from the others–at least an A-grade rating, or even higher.

Just like Tuya, who was originally a peripheral figure in the Element Faction but completed a similar chain quest and obtained the blueprints for crafting Titan Giants, instantly becoming a core member of the Element Faction.

It was because of this quest that as long as one passed the final assessment, the rating would definitely be no lower than A-grade, which was also why Tuya wanted to recruit him.

“Apart from Tuya, Tutan hasn’t recruited anyone else…” At this moment, Zuo Lan was filled with regret: “Oh my God, what have I missed.”

…

Two days ago, Song Jian had already given up on continuing to capture other factions’ territories and resource points because what was restricting his development now was time, not resources. Even if he captured more main cities, he only had two subordinate heroes, and it was impossible to disperse his forces across three main cities, given the impending battle.

Fortunately, seven days had passed, and his human castle had been upgraded to level three, and the magic guild had also been upgraded to level three.

A level three magic guild could learn five kinds of third-tier magic, which for Thousand Swords Art was equivalent to a dark gold quality skill. In the auction house, the starting bid for a dark gold quality skill scroll was at least three million Doomsday Coins, and if it was a skill someone was particularly interested in, the auction price for a dark gold skill scroll could even break ten million Doomsday Coins.

Even for the City of Hope Alliance, purchasing too many such scrolls could affect the guild’s development.

Every third-tier magic spell increased the proficiency of Thousand Swords Art significantly. After absorbing all five spells, the proficiency of the eighth-level Thousand Swords Art had reached 81%, and to enhance to the next level, he would at most need one epic-level or three to four dark gold level skill scrolls.

“My lord, they’re here!” Catherine, who had been standing on the city walls, put away her monocular and said seriously to Song Jian, who seemed a bit distracted by her side.

“They’re here already? There are still more than ten hours before the end of the assessment…” Song Jian muttered to himself softly.

“My lord, the opposing force is very strong, with twelve Titans and two Behemoths, and more than five hundred lower-tier troops. If we just rely on the soldiers in the city, it’s impossible to withstand their attack. Please consider some countermeasures in advance, my lord,” Catherine said, a hint of fear flashing in her eyes. Although she was level thirty, the power she had suddenly gained had not come with the corresponding mindset. Moreover, as a sixteen-year-old girl facing terrifying seventh-tier troops, she naturally felt a sense of helplessness.

“Don’t worry, everything will be fine,” Song Jian reassured her with a smile, then turned to Tuya, who had been standing by his side, and asked, “Tuya, how many seventh-tier troops can your forbidden magic spells deal with?”

“My lord, casting a forbidden spell not only requires time but also, most importantly, consumes a great deal of mana. With my current mana, I can withstand the consumption of three forbidden spells at most; after that, I might lose the ability to fight!” Tuya replied.

“Good, then leave those two Behemoths to you. After you eliminate them, if you still have the strength, take down a Titan. If not, then retreat and rest, but don’t lose your life here!” Song Jian said with a smile.

Seeing that Song Jian could still joke, Tuya and Catherine exchanged glances, and their tense mood gradually relaxed.
