I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1247 - Chapter 1247 Chapter 1249 Ancestral Land

Chapter 1247: Chapter 1249: Ancestral Land Chapter 1247: Chapter 1249: Ancestral Land “Is this a sovereign-level Abyssal demon?” an Abyss player muttered to himself, stunned.

“It might even be a demon king-level. That moving Abyss Fortress, although it’s just level four, if summoned forcibly, it could reach the level of summoning a demon king-level Abyssal demon!” another Abyss player whispered.

“Hmm, how could it be demon king-level? You know, once a demon king-level is summoned, that Abyss castle won’t be able to summon any Abyssal demons for a long time in the future. The situation isn’t urgent right now; there’s no need to summon a demon king-level BOSS.”

Everyone gaze unblinkingly at the Fallen Angel demon floating in mid-air, behind it were two pairs of black wings, its hand clutching a longsword ablaze with black flames, its eyes blood red.

The moment it appeared, the Fallen Angel demon didn’t look towards the City of Hope; instead, its gaze fell upon another direction.

“Sky City, I didn’t expect to find a Sky City here; what a pleasant surprise!” Kulunsya, the Fallen Angel demon, revealed a sinister smile from the corner of his mouth, surprisingly ignoring the City of Hope shrouded in black mist and turned to fly in another direction.

Its actions puzzled the Abyss players, but they soon stopped caring. Even though they had changed races and professions, these Abyss players couldn’t control the actions of the Abyss monsters. After invading the Main World, at most they just followed behind the Abyss monsters, picking up the scraps.

Let those monsters handle the most dangerous tasks of besieging the city, and pick up the spoils after the city is breached. Their actions weren’t any slower than anyone else’s. It was both safe and lucrative, so why not!

The only downside was that waiting for the monsters to breach the city was a bit boring. They had been doing this for five or six days now, and facing a newly established city like the City of Hope, these monsters hadn’t even broken through the outermost Guardian formations, utterly useless!

Boom–boom–boom–

The Abyss monsters sacrificed their lives, and the consumption of the Protection Black Mist formation was significant. What originally engulfed several kilometers of the Protection Black Mist had now shrunk to only a few hundred meters wide. Without the Guardians of the black mist, it wouldn’t last long before dissipating completely.

Watching the black mist gradually thinning, Wang Qi’s complexion turned increasingly grim.

“We can hold out for at most another three hours. Before nightfall, the Protection Black Mist will completely vanish!” Wang Qi thought to himself.

As time ticked by second by second, the sky soon began to darken, and the city wall was lined with torches as thick as arms. Every dozen meters or so, there was a large searchlight, illuminating beyond the city walls.

By this time, some monsters had broken through the black mist and charged toward the City of Hope’s walls. As soon as they showed their heads, they were torn into pieces by countless ranged attacks.

In the beginning, only a few Abyss monsters broke through the black mist, but as time passed and the black mist thinned, more and more monsters broke through, and the people on the walls suddenly felt the pressure.

“Prepare to launch the flares! Fire at will after the flares are launched!” Wang Qi shouted, “Searchlights, lock onto Lord-level or higher BOSSes, everyone prioritize attacking the BOSSes locked by the searchlights!”

Wang Qi’s voice was loud and clear, instantly spreading hundreds of meters along the wall. Everyone responded in unison, their voices thunderous. Wang Qi nodded; their morale was indeed high!

Following Wang Qi’s command, flare after flare soared diagonally into the sky, shining like small suns and lighting up the surroundings. In an instant, a large area in front of the city wall became as bright as daylight, and the grotesque and ugly visages of the Abyss monsters were suddenly exposed to everyone’s view.

On the crenelated battlements of the wall, rows of NPC guards stood holding long spears, aiming at the abyssal monsters that continuously charged over! Beside them were players wielding magic staffs or longbows, players from the City of Hope Alliance. These players were much stronger than the city guards, but they lacked the discipline and order of the NPC soldiers.

“Fire!” commanded Wang Qi, and in an instant, that order was echoed from several different directions. The sounds of gunfire erupted like a storm of beans.

“Ratatat, rat-tat, ratatatat…”

Sparks flew as the area several hundred meters in front of the wall instantly turned into a battlefield. Bullets ricocheted everywhere, and the abyssal monsters that just emerged from the black mist were torn to shreds by a torrent of bullets, scattering their remains on the ground.

Long arrows and spells flashing with light followed suit. A relentless onslaught hit the fresh wave of abyssal monsters just as they broke through the black mist, delivering a devastating blow. Some of the stronger monsters, despite taking the brunt of the attack and managing to charge several meters, inevitably fell, yet more poured forth, steadily closing the gap between them and the wall. Corpses began to pile from the black mist to the base of the wall.

Boom~

A loud crash signaled the first monster reaching the wall of the City of Hope. Its massive body slammed into the wall, only causing ripples to spread across its surface, as if an invisible energy shield protected the structure.

The moment this monster charged, a dozen people locked onto it. As it prepared for a second assault, countless attacks landed on its head, swiftly draining its Vitality Points to nothing.

More and more monsters broke through the Protection Black Mist. Look as far as one could, hundreds of meters beyond the wall were swarmed with creatures, and even a ten-meter-tall Lord Level BOSS managed to breach the black mist and charged toward the wall.

“Magic Crystal Railgun, prepare!” Wang Qi roared, his voice booming across the entire battlefield.

Atop the wall, at regular intervals, stood massive Magic Crystal cannons, crouching on the battlements like fierce tigers. The barrels of these Magic Crystal Railguns slowly emerged, a dazzling white light gathering within.

Seconds later, a deafening roar split the air, momentarily turning the already dim sky into broad daylight.

In an instant, the dense crowd of abyssal monsters vaporized, not a single body left intact. Several hundred meters in front of the wall, the ground was shaved off by a thick layer, leaving deep craters reminiscent of ravines.

All the monsters that had surged forth vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed. This single strike killed thousands of abyssal creatures.

Yet quickly, more monsters surged out from the Protection Black Mist. The tall walls once again shimmered with the light of magic, and the crisp crackle of rifles rang out in unison. The battle continued. Wang Qi, looking out at the swarming abyssal monsters, knew that the most challenging moments were yet to come.

…

At that moment, a four-winged Fallen Angel demon, just flown out from the mobile Abyss Fortress, hovered in midair. The space in front of it was clear, but upon closer inspection, one could notice occasional distortions in the light, as if an invisible transparent curtain hung there.

“Heh, the legendary ancestral land, Sky City!” A thrilling excitement filled the eyes of the Fallen Angel Kulunsya, “Let’s see if this legendary land truly contains an abundance of Angel Crystals. If the legend holds true, with the help of these crystals, I will surely ascend to Demon Lord level…”
