I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1155 - Chapter 1155 Chapter 1157 Siege_1

Chapter 1155: Chapter 1157: Siege_1 Chapter 1155: Chapter 1157: Siege_1 The Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation, which blazed fiercely, lasted for less than ten seconds before it slowly began to vanish. On the arena, the five Abyssal players had disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only five pieces of equipment flickering with golden light.

These Abyssal players, not being affiliated with the Flame Manor and not the original defenders of the arena, had dropped their equipment when killed, and their deaths had even granted Song Jian a good amount of war merits.

It should be known that the game was currently in the middle of the Abyssal Hell invasion phase, where players from both camps were slaughtering each other, and the war merits gained were twice the usual amount.

Most importantly, Song Jian had gained a massive amount of combat experience, which was even more than what one would gain from killing five Lord-level BOSSes.

After picking up the five pieces of golden equipment and giving them a glance, Song Jian felt a bit disappointed; it turned out that all these items required players from the Abyss faction to use. Such equipment, although of a decent grade, could only be broken down for materials, likely reducing their value by eighty to ninety percent.

However, this battle was still a huge gain for Song Jian, who not only obtained a Legendary Quality Promotion Stone for free but also secured the Epic Quality flying sword he desired. It was a case of hitting two birds with one stone. When he used the Promotion Stone to elevate the flying sword to Legendary Level, his off-hand crossbow could honorably retire.

Just as Song Jian looked eagerly at the prize podium, fixated on the flying sword that was emitting a purple-red light, the giant iron cage hanging above the arena suddenly dropped with a “boom,” landing on the arena.

This cage was not made from ordinary steel but from Abyssal demon iron, and it was densely inscribed with Abyss Runes. The moment the cage descended, it separated the arena from the rest of the combat zone.

The audience that had been cheering a moment ago stopped at this sight, looking towards the arena in surprise.

In just a short while, the figures of several Abyssal demons appeared at the four corners of the arena. One of them, a towering Abyssal demon over five meters tall with a bulky body covered in a thick carapace, looked like a massive lizard from the waist down. Above the waist, it had a humanoid appearance, holding a giant scythe in its hands, with nothing on its grotesque face but a mouth full of sharp teeth and a single large eye.

Seeing this Abyssal demon, a few onlookers immediately exclaimed, “Destruction, the Destroyer, the Abyssal Destroyer! Damn, it’s an eighty-level Command-level BOSS.”

At the mention of a Command-level BOSS, the spectators erupted into an uproar. Besides that Abyssal monster, Abyssal demons appeared in other corners as well, including Fallen Angels and Goat-faced Demons. Almost all major demon races of the Abyss were present in the arena.

“They’re trying to break the rules and forcefully kill him!” Li Qi shouted in anger, pointing and cursing loudly at the arena.

The others realized what was happening and joined in the shouting. Some of the more alert individuals started running towards the exits of the coliseum. Just then, thick stone doors fell down, sealing all the exits and trapping everyone inside the plaza.

At that moment, the figure of Manager Mar slowly appeared above the coliseum. The ten-meter-tall looming projection looked down at the crowd with disdain and spoke, “Ladies and gentlemen, this human God’s Chosen has offended the majesty of Abyssal Hell, and therefore, he must be killed here. You all can bear witness. Once he’s dead, you will be free to leave!”

At this time, a large number of Abyssal demons appeared around the coliseum. At a glance, there were at least hundreds of densely packed low-level Abyssal demons from the Abyssal Hell, ranging only at level sixty or seventy. However, with such numbers, they were far beyond what the people present could handle.

The few dozen onlookers weren’t all of the human race, and most of them fell silent. A few human NPCs showed shameful and indignant expressions on their faces.

Boom!

A jet of black Flame suddenly rose from the center of the arena. As the Flame dissipated, the Great Demon from before appeared on the arena, taking off its hood to reveal a fearsome face.

The Great Demon split its massive jaw into a grin, “Human, your soul has been honorably coveted by the Abyssal Demon King Dattara Bone. He needs a soul as outstanding as yours!”

“Abyss demons are abyss demons, deceitful, despicable, and shameless!” Song Jian sneered coldly.

“Human, give up your struggle!” The Great Demon sneered, raising its crescent blade high. In a flash, it charged towards Song Jian. The other abyss demons in the arena also launched an assault, all pouncing towards Song Jian.

At that moment, Song Jian’s Sword Qi had not fully recovered, making it impossible for him to deploy the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation. Seeing the Great Demon rushing towards him, Song Jian snorted coldly and with a thought, instantly created a Sword Shadow Clone. Both figures charged at the Great Demon together.

From Song Jian’s previous encounters in the Abyssal Hell, among all eight major demonic races, he found the Great Demon race to be the most troublesome abyss demons. Their innate talent to morph into Abyssal Raging Flame and move short distances in interdimensional space afforded the Great Demon race an ability to attack and defend as needed.

Had he encountered a Great Demon in open space, if he wasn’t preemptive, Song Jian often wouldn’t engage in a fight to the death with a Great Demon race, as such battles were merely a waste of time. But now, within this arena, the iron cage not only locked Song Jian inside but also limited the range of the Great Demon’s instantaneous movement.

Whoosh~

A streak of white light flashed by, and Song Jian’s figure swiftly retreated; meanwhile, the other Sword Shadow Clone deployed the Thousand Swords Art. Countless Spirit Swords, darting around the arena like swimming fish, flew at the approaching abyss demons. For a time, dozens of abyss demons were forced to wield their weapons to defend, while the Great Demon, having missed its first strike, bared its teeth in a grin at Song Jian’s true form, stabbing its crescent blade into the ground. Its figure once again turned into a plume of black flames and vanished.

The abyss demons in the arena were at least at an Elite Level Boss strength, many of them at Lord-level Boss strength, and only three abyss demons possessed the power of Tyrant-level Bosses.

The Sword Shadow Clone’s Thousand Swords Art was of a very low level; the hundreds of Spirit Swords only temporarily entangled the other abyss demons.

However, right after unleashing the Thousand Swords Art, the Sword Shadow Clone immediately used a sword technique that Song Jian had hardly used since mastering it, the Eclipse Shattered Light Slash!

A huge crescent-shaped Sword Qi flew towards the biggest abyssal Destroyer, cracking open a fissure over one meter wide in the arena floor, extending all the way to the feet of the Abyssal Destroyer.

Boom!

With a thunderous explosion, the body of the Abyssal Destroyer was suddenly hurled into the air, casting a massive shadow over a dozen other abyss demons. Blood gushed forth, and to the amazement of all, the body of the Abyssal Destroyer now bore a three-meter-long gash, almost cleaving it in two.

This was a level-eighty Tyrant-level Boss that had been severely wounded by a single strike from a mere clone. The spectators, as well as the abyss demons in the arena, were all too shocked to speak.

But just then, the Sword Shadow Clone that had unleashed such a powerful attack began to disintegrate, turning into a puff of smoke and dissipating into the air.

At that moment, a plume of black flames suddenly appeared behind Song Jian, with a raised crescent blade poised above his head.
