I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1254 - Chapter 1254 Chapter 1256 Array Diagram

Chapter 1254: Chapter 1256: Array Diagram Chapter 1254: Chapter 1256: Array Diagram The King Level BOSS Fallen Angel Kulunsya had just ascended not a few minutes ago, only to be ganged up on and killed by three elders of the Imperial Sword Sect.

Innumerable golden sword lights erupted from its body, a burst of black flames blazing, instantly reducing Kulunsya to a pile of ashes. Within those ashes, a chest emitting a purplish-golden glow flickered in and out of view.

Elder Wang raised his right hand, and the purplish-golden treasure chest floated towards him.

“Lucky break, I never expected a little guy who’d just ascended to the Legendary Realm to drop a legendary-quality spoils of war, haha!” Elder Wang laughed heartily, looking like an old hand at this, it seemed this was not his first time acquiring loot dropped by a monster.

Song Jian showed a look of envy in his eyes, thinking to himself, “Unexpectedly, a BOSS from the Legendary Realm directly dropped a chest. What a pity, now there’s no way to know what items it contained!”

Elder Wang directly opened the treasure chest and reached inside. In no time at all, he had pulled out a large amount of gold and epic-level materials – these were the most essential parts extracted from the Fallen Angel Kulunsya, perfect for forging or as materials for crafting arrays.

“Angel’s Boots, this design is a bit too fancy!” Elder Wang pulled a pair of epic-level boots from the chest, glanced at the design, shook his head while talking, and casually put them into his storage bag.

The other two elders watched with gleeful smiles, not the least bit inclined to compete for the loot. Seeing Elder Wang draw out items of decent quality, they would even compliment him, making for a harmonious atmosphere.

Item after item was retrieved from the chest, mostly gold or silver equipment, with only two epic-level items, but not a single legendary-level item had been found yet.

Since the chest had emitted a purplish-golden legendary glow, there should be at least one legendary-level treasure inside. Song Jian waited patiently on the side, thinking that even if he couldn’t own it, at least he could feast his eyes.

As Elder Wang took out the last item, the entire chest suddenly became ethereal and slowly faded away. Song Jian’s gaze was locked firmly on the item in Elder Wang’s hand.

It was a pair of wings the size of a palm, pitch-black as ink, with each feather appearing as though cast from black crystal, resembling a work of art.

The wings emitted a purplish-golden light, a pair of legendary-quality flying artifacts.

“To think it dropped its source of power!” Elder Wang also showed a look of surprise, examining the pair of wings for a long while before he shook his head and sighed, “What a shame, it’s not a material but a piece of equipment. If it were a material, it could have been used as the focal point of the Dodging Heaven Sword Formation…”

Glancing at Song Jian, Elder Wang tossed the most precious flying artifact from the chest over to him, saying with a smile, “This matches the pair of flame wings you have. They could make a set, so I’m giving them to you!”

Facing the legendary-quality “Xuantian Wings” in his hands, Song Jian felt like a huge pie had fallen from the sky and hit him on the head.

“This, this isn’t right…” Song Jian said somewhat sheepishly.

“Haha, alright, take it if it’s given to you. An elder’s gift cannot be declined, put it away,” Elder Wang laughed, stroking his beard and saying, “But that flying island, that’s just for us three brothers – you don’t get a share, so no hard feelings, alright!”

“Not bad, not bad at all. That flying island is extremely vast, and the island brims with sacred spiritual energy. By simply arranging a small Spirit Gathering Array, we could make excellent use of this sacred energy. It’s truly a heaven-sent Cave Heaven Blessed Land!” Elder Xiao laughed heartily, appearing very satisfied.

“I’m not greedy either. As long as I can have a cave dwelling there, I’ll be completely content!” Elder Qian also said with a face full of smiles.

Song Jian took a glance at the Sky City not far away. At this moment, the Sky City displayed a desolate cityscape, void of a single person, with ruins and broken walls everywhere– it seemed as if it had gone through a great battle.

“Since the three Elders are fond of this flying island, then naturally, it is your spoils of war!” Song Jian said with a smile as he put away the Xuantian Wings, understanding in his heart that this was a hush fee from the three Elders.

The three Elders exchanged glances and burst into hearty laughter. They had initially thought that tasting the Jade Liquid Wine was the greatest benefit of this trip. To their surprise, they even gained a flying island–an unexpected joy that left the three Elders extremely satisfied.

Upon returning to the City of Hope, the Abyssal creatures within the city had also been nearly driven out. The fall of the Fallen Angel Kulunsya and the Destruction of the Abyss Fortress made most of the Abyssal creatures realize that if they did not flee, they would likely perish here, and so they all scattered and fled.

As for the Abyssal players, they had already fled without a trace. The Transmission Array in the City of Hope had never been shut down. The siege battle thus ended in an anticlimactic manner!

The successful defense of the city naturally called for a three-day celebration. Throughout these three days, the entire city was filled with songs and laughter. Song Jian naturally also introduced the high-ranking members of the City of Hope to the three Elders from the Imperial Sword Sect, instantly boosting the confidence of Wang Qi and the others. They hadn’t expected the city lord, in less than three months, to bring such a powerful patronage to the City of Hope.

The three Elders, of course, got to drink the long-cherished Jade Liquid Wine, and were nearly always drunk during these three days. They gave Song Jian three gourds of fine wine, and in return, Song Jian gifted them three gourds of Jade Liquid Wine, making the exchange a sure profit!

Song Jian certainly wasn’t at a disadvantage. The Jade Liquid Wine, when mixed with other fine wines, required only a small amount to produce extraordinary effects. Besides the three gourds of Jade Liquid Wine from the three Elders, Song Jian also kept quite a lot for himself, enough to fully exploit the benefits of the Jade Liquid Wine.

When the three-day celebration ended, the three Elders prepared to leave, ready to return to Ancient Sword Star. Before leaving, Elder Wang suddenly said to Song Jian, “Song Jian, the City of Hope originally had a Protection Array, but it wasn’t fully utilized. If you can find the array map for this array, you could combine it with the Purple Heaven Thunder Punishing Gods Array, using your war pet as the array’s focal point. You could form an even stronger guardian formation. By then, even Legendary Level powerhouses would not be able to break the protection array!”

After hearing this, Song Jian was surprised and quickly clasped his hands together in a salute, “I’m not sure how to combine the two great arrays. Elder Wang, why not stay for two more days to give some guidance?”

Elder Wang laughed heartily and said, “With your proficiency in array formation, finding the Protection Array’s map would be enough for you to easily accomplish this. There’s no need for this old man to meddle. Besides, the Sovereign’s command was to help you defend the city and then return. It’s not good for us to disobey! As for you, you can stay for a few more days.”

“In that case, I shall respectfully see off the three Elders!” Song Jian bowed to the three Elders.

“Song Jian, hurry up and improve your strength. The Sovereign once said that as long as your strength reaches the Legendary Realm, you could become the peak master of Divine Attachment Peak, and that’s no joke!” The three Elders, stepping on flying swords, rose into the air and said to Song Jian with a smile, “For others, it might take a century, but for you, at most a decade. I believe you can reach the Legendary Realm. Remember, be wary of the gods!”

When Elder Wang said the last sentence, his eyes held a trace of disdain as he glanced at the temple district within the City of Hope, lowering his voice as he spoke.

Watching the backs of the three Elders as they departed, Song Jian stood still for a long time, then sighed deeply before turning and heading toward the City Lord Mansion.
