I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1318 - Chapter 1318 Chapter 1320 Riot

Chapter 1318: Chapter 1320: Riot Chapter 1318: Chapter 1320: Riot In the mine, the stone creature Gulu stood still, staring at the Purple Crystals scattered on the ground. It continuously made “gulu gulu” sounds, showing its great temptation for these Purple Crystals. Consuming and digesting them could enhance its power, but Song Jian’s command prevented it from touching any Purple Crystals. Despite its desire to devour them, Gulu dared not defy Song Jian’s orders.

Shortly after, Song Jian’s figure reappeared in the mine. Seeing Gulu’s aggrieved expression, Song Jian suddenly realized the danger and broke out in a cold sweat.

If Gulu had secretly consumed a Purple Crystal while he entered the Divine Country, it would certainly have been detected by the Abyssal Magic Vine. Now that he had come out, he feared he might face the wrath of the Abyssal Magic Vine.

“Indeed, once we’re out, I’ll let you taste a few…” Song Jian patted Gulu’s thigh and whispered.

With a thought, dozens of Holy Spirit Warriors appeared in the mine. Song Jian began assigning each one to an area, with every Holy Spirit Warrior required to take at least two Purple Crystals, while the rest would be taken by him and stone creature Gulu.

Soon, most of the Purple Crystals in the mine were held in the hands of the Holy Spirit Warriors.

“Hold them tight, don’t let go!” Song Jian ordered.

Ha!

A low shout rang out, and all the Holy Spirit Warriors tightly grasped the Purple Crystals in their hands.

Crack~

With a light snap, Song Jian turned his head to see that a Purple Crystal in the hand of a Holy Spirit Warrior had actually split in half, causing his face to fall immediately.

“Damn it, buddy, aren’t you a bit too strong?” Song Jian thought in surprise.

At that moment, the roots that had been embedded into that Purple Crystal suddenly started to shake. Song Jian sensed trouble and immediately moved all the Holy Spirit Warriors into the Divine Country with a single thought.

In an instant, all the roots connected to the Purple Crystals broke off, leaving a smooth mirror-like cut, as if they had been sliced open by a sharp blade.

Squeak~

All the roots began to tremble, resembling a bunch of slender snakes. In the distance, a sharp screeching sound rose, like sandpaper grinding against glass amplified a hundred times, making one feel as though needles were piercing into their ears.

“Gulu, gather all the remaining Purple Crystals…” Song Jian yelled loudly.

Gulu’s body began to shake slightly, and the Purple Crystals within several meters around it all started gathering towards it. Song Jian glanced at the crystals rolling towards Gulu and immediately dashed towards those further away which Gulu couldn’t control.

One, two, three…

Song Jian didn’t stop picking up the Purple Crystals in the mine. Seconds later, he suddenly felt an eerie threat looming over him, causing his movements to freeze.

“If we don’t leave now, we might not be able to at all!” Song Jian looked regretfully at the dozen or so Purple Crystals still hanging in mid-air.

Turning to look at Gulu, Song Jian found that not a single Purple Crystal was left by Gulu’s side, leaving him stunned for a moment.

“Gulu, where are the crystals?” Song Jian shouted.

Gulu opened its mouth wide and pointed inside with a finger, its face showing a satisfied, silly smile.

“Damn it, you’ve swallowed them all…” Song Jian’s face immediately turned sour.

Whoosh~

A purple-black vine as thick as an arm suddenly burst through the stone, stabbing towards Song Jian. The vine was covered in strange black patterns and tiny barbs, and at its tip, a gaping maw full of sharp teeth had split open.

“Is this a plant or an animal? How has it mutated like this?” Song Jian was shocked and hastily dodged to the side. The purple-black vine grazed his cheek and pierced into the rock wall next to him, drilling a large hole through the solid wall as if it were brittle tofu, with debris flying everywhere.

Song Jian felt a stinging pain on his cheek and detected a faint stench that one would only find on ferocious wild beasts that consumed their prey raw.

At that moment, Song Jian didn’t bother with that, he raised his right hand and took Gulu, the stone pet, into the Pet Space, then immediately used the Soul Wander skill, charging towards the mine exit.

However, as he burst out of the mine, countless roots that had pierced into the Purple Crystal ore, now partially jade-like, all started to tremble and chased after Song Jian’s form.

Rustling~

Countless roots entwined with one another, and within the mine, it was as if a giant serpent was swiftly slithering through, except the narrow tunnels restricted the serpent’s movement. As more vines joined the fray, the rock walls of the tunnel also began to crumble and collapse.

Not far from the Purple Crystal mine, the ground in the town of the Abyssal Human Clan began to shake violently. Fissures appeared in the earth, causing everyone to panic.

“What’s happening, is it an earthquake?”

“Run for it, the houses are collapsing, if we don’t flee we’ll be buried alive!”

…

Two powerful figures, radiating a dense black aura, flew out from the Abyssal castle and hovered in mid-air. One of them had a pair of dragon horns on his head and a thick spindle-shaped tail trailing behind him, while the other spread a pair of jet-black wings.

“Zack, what’s going on, are we under attack?” The Abyssal humanoid with dragon horns on his head wore a grave expression and asked in a deep voice.

“No, I sense that it’s coming from the direction of the mine. It seems someone has disturbed the Abyssal Magic Vine. Tor, do you think it’s that Divine Country’s Blessed One…” the one with black wings speculated.

“Gale is still searching for that Divine Country’s Blessed One at Snow Crystal Lake. Should we send someone to notify him to come back?”

“No, let’s check it out first. If it’s just the Abyssal Magic Vine going berserk, we can suppress it together. But if it’s that Blessed One, can’t the two of us kill a Blessed One with just second-tier Combat Power?”

“Alright, let’s go check it out first!”

…

Soon, the whole town mobilized, with all the Abyssal Human Clan’s warriors quickly assembling, ready to defend their yet unfinished town.

Two warriors of the Legendary Realm then soared towards the mine.

Boom~

With a loud crash, the mountain holding the Purple Crystal mine suddenly burst open, and thick dark purple vines emerged from within. In a short time, the vines covered the entire mountain range, making it look from afar like a huge tentacled monster crawling out of the mountain.

“The Abyssal Magic Vine, it’s the Abyssal Magic Vine that’s gone berserk…”

“Good heavens, is that the true form of the Abyssal Magic Vine? How can there be such a terrifying creature…”

The humans of the Abyss looked fearfully at the distant mountain, buzzing with discussion.

The two Legendary Realm warriors of the Abyss paused mid-air and exchanged a glance, each seeing a hint of fear in the other’s eyes. Even as warriors of the Legendary Realm, they felt fear in the presence of such a terrifying beast.

“Perhaps we should wait for it to calm down on its own before we go over?” Zack hesitated.

“Yes, if we go now, its rage might pour out onto us. Let’s wait for Gale to return before going over…” Tor said, glancing at the wildly thrashing Abyssal Magic Vine in the distance, uncertain.
