I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1027 - Chapter 1027 Chapter 1029 Decision_1

Chapter 1027: Chapter 1029: Decision_1 Chapter 1027: Chapter 1029: Decision_1 The Abyssal Passage has opened?

Everyone’s heart tightened, this was the prelude to war!

If it were just a game, no one would care; in fact, they would be thrilled, for a new gaming feature had emerged.

But in this game, people could actually die!

“City Lord, we should quickly occupy all the remaining areas of Doomsday City, otherwise…” Wang Qi immediately said.

Song Jian suddenly realized that in the old district of Doomsday City, there were still many Abyssal Shadow instances. These instances were essentially bridgeheads of Abyssal Hell in the game world, which would eventually be breached one by one by the people from Abyssal Hell, turning them into Abyssal Passages.

“How many Abyssal Shadow instances are left in the old district, and how many are there in the wilderness around the city?” Song Jian promptly asked.

One must know that besides the old district of Doomsday City, there were many Abyssal Shadow instances in the wilderness. The entire game world was filled with countless such instances, a disaster that was inevitable.

“The old district still has one third of its area, with five third-level Abyssal Shadow instances and three fourth-level ones, which is not a big problem. But the Abyssal Shadow instances outside the Protection Black Mist, just within a ten-kilometer range, there are more than twenty…” Wang Qi said with an unsightly expression as he checked the information in his hand.

“How many of these instances have been cleared?” Song Jian inquired.

“Most are in the hands of players, who, after occupying them, charge an entrance fee of about three hundred Doomsday Coins per person!” Wang Qi replied.

Most of these Abyssal Shadow instances had a cooldown period before they could be entered again. After entering one, there would be a cooldown of several hours or even days. Even so, there were players who controlled five or six Abyssal Shadow entry permissions, earning tens of thousands of Doomsday Coins a day just from entrance fees!

“Negotiate with those players who have occupied the instances; once the Abyssal Passage opens, the instances they control will become worthless as exit points. See if we can buy them all at a low price and then destroy them outright!” Song Jian suggested.

Depending on the level of the Abyssal Shadow instance, the level of the open Abyss Passage varied, as did the number of creatures that could pass through at once.

The lower the level of the instance, the higher the level of Abyssal creatures that could not pass through. Some powerful lord-level Abyssal creatures could only come and go through a fourth-level or higher Abyss Passage. Like the only level five instance in the city center earlier, it could open the largest Abyss Passage, allowing even Demon King-level Abyssal creatures to pass.

“Okay, I’ll take care of it!” Wang Qi nodded. The fewer Abyssal Passages around the City of Hope, the safer the future would be.

“We also need to take over the old district as soon as possible. That way, the city’s previous defense systems can all be utilized. The Protection Black Mist is currently only in a passive defense state; once activated, even those with third-order Combat Power may not be able to easily enter!” Song Jian said after some thought.

“Understood. In at most two weeks, the entire Doomsday City will be occupied and become the City of Hope!” Wang Qi nodded and said, “By then, the city will be able to accommodate millions of people, but the pressure on defenses will be immense!”

After all, the larger the city, the longer the walls, and the more defense forces required.

“Try to recruit as many NPC guards as possible, and build more Magic Crystal Railguns. Also, how is the mining of the Magic Crystal Mine going?” Song Jian asked.

“Very smoothly. We can mine about three hundred kilograms of Magic Crystal Ore a day!” Wang Qi replied.

Magic Crystals are strategic resources that never circulate on the market. Apart from making Magic Crystal Railguns and ammunition, many areas such as alchemy, enchanting, and forging require the use of Magic Crystals.

No matter how much is mined, Magic Crystals are always in a state of short supply.

A group of people had been meeting all morning, and once they had settled various matters, everyone dispersed, and Song Jian heaved a sigh of relief.

He had never had any experience as a manager, usually leaving matters to others. In fact, the actual executor of Doomsday City was Wang Qi. If not for holding the City Lord seal and thus having such delegated authority, it would not have taken long for Song Jian’s position as City Lord to become nothing but a title.

In the Shattered Divine Realm, a woman dressed in white stood motionless on a lush grassland, gazing up at the orb of light above her head.

That was the sun, evolved from a fragment of godhood; although smaller than a regular sun, it provided more than enough light and warmth for the Divine Country, which was only fifty to sixty square kilometers in size.

The Divine Country was bound to Song Jian. With a single thought, he could survey the entire Divine Country. If any abnormality arose within it, it couldn’t escape his notice. Yet this woman in white stood openly on the grasslands of the Divine Country, and Song Jian was completely unaware, as if she didn’t exist at all.

After a long while, a deep sigh sounded, and the woman’s figure slowly vanished from the spot, as if she had never been there.

Song Jian always had great trust in the system and hadn’t noticed that within his own Divine Country, there was a presence he knew nothing about.

Having been in meetings all morning, Song Jian felt extremely weary as if chopping monsters non-stop for a day and a night was less exhausting.

There was still some time before the Abyssal Passage opened. This time was given for players in the game world to prepare, as well as for Abyssal players to construct the Abyss Passage.

At this moment in Abyssal Hell, every individual, whether player or other Abyssal creature, let out earth-shaking roars the moment they received the system announcement.

They had long awaited this moment, with many longing to return to the game world. Compared to the game world, the resources in Abyssal Hell were miserably scarce.

Almost everyone was given a task to collect resources. Rewards varied according to the amount of resources gathered, essentially gathering the entire force of the Abyss to build the Abyss Passage.

Doru became the hero of Abyssal Hell. His name was sung by many Abyssal NPCs. With the seven great Abyssal Demon Kings fallen, and now Doru having acquired the Abyssal Demon King inheritance, perhaps he could unify Abyssal Hell in the future and become the sole ruler.

However, Doru was currently frowning in an abandoned palace, staring at a fiery throne. Some force had guided him to the Guardian Temple of the Abyss, which Song Jian had once visited. The Abyssal Demon King’s inheritance lay upon this fiery throne.

But what troubled Doru was that the fiery throne before him bore the inheritance of seven different Abyssal Demon Kings, each at least of legendary rank, leaving him in a state of indecision.

The spectral images of the Abyssal Demon Kings floated in the air, intently watching Doru, awaiting his choice.

“This, this is truly a painful bliss; which Demon King inheritance should I choose?” Doru’s mouth twitched slightly, finding it difficult to make a decision at that moment.
