I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1395 - Chapter 1395 Chapter 1397

Chapter 1395: Chapter 1397 Chapter 1395: Chapter 1397 Hate confusion is a passive skill that certain special BOSSes have, which causes their hate value to become chaotic when their Vitality Points drop to a certain level, randomizing targets among the enemies that deal damage to them!

When hunting a BOSS as a team, the most troublesome scenario is encountering this situation. A Main Tank usually holds the BOSS’s aggro firmly, but once hate confusion is triggered, the BOSS will abandon the attack on the MT and choose to attack other players, especially troublesome if it targets ranged or healing classes–for the team, it’s nothing short of a disaster!

Hunting a BOSS with “hate confusion” skill not only requires team strength but also a great deal of luck!

Facing such a formidable BOSS as King Smolahan, besides Song Jian, anyone else could be instantly killed. Hearing Patsha’s loud shout of “hate confusion,” Doya and Noya, who were originally charging towards the BOSS, hoping to snatch the last hit, simultaneously stopped in their tracks, exchanged glances, and retreated slowly, visibly shaken.

“Luckily that guy is a bit faster than me…” The same thought rose in their minds at the same time!

Patsha, now the target, was frantically dodging the attacks of King Smolahan. Although the King, wielding a trident Battle Halberd, belonged to a melee or semi-ranged class, his attack range covered nearly the entire tomb chamber, with only a few spots as his blind spots!

But for Patsha, locked on by the hate, there was no such thing as a blind spot, as King Smolahan relentlessly pursued him wherever he fled!

“Save me, save me!” Patsha’s face was a mask of desperation, performing various aerial maneuvers in the air, dodging the powerful energy waves behind him!

Song Jian squinted, glanced at Doya and Noya, and chuckled. Those two had been freeloading the whole time, barely contributing, and had even thought about snatching the final blow. If the BOSS’s hate had locked onto either of them, Song Jian wouldn’t have bothered to save them!

Yet Patsha was different. He had been assisting all along. Although his help wasn’t much, Song Jian appreciated it!

Thousand Swords Art!

Song Jian pointed with his right hand, and countless Spirit Swords flew towards the BOSS, completely surrounding it and instantly blocking its line of sight!

“I’m going to kill you all!” King Smolahan became increasingly frantic, seemingly sensing his impending Destruction and making a desperate effort, using his body to collide with the flying Spirit Swords!

In no time, King Smolahan’s body was covered in sword marks, the black aura leaking from his wounds almost wrapping him up, making him appear like a dense black fog running everywhere!

Song Jian continuously reduced the BOSS’s Vitality Points by over a million before finally drawing its hate onto himself!

Patsha, scared stiff, had been hit several times by the BOSS’s Qi energy. Considering that the curse effect on him had already stacked up to fifteen layers, even after consuming all his recovery potions his Vitality Points had only recovered to about 60%. If the BOSS attacked him twice more, he feared he would be kicked out of the Assessment World!

“Close, so close…” Patsha collapsed against the bronze door, his eyes full of fear. To be expelled from the Assessment World at this point would truly be failing at the brink of success!

Patsha looked at Song Jian with immense gratitude. If not for Song Jian desperately using Thousand Swords Art to block the BOSS, he would have probably been killed by the BOSS and forced to leave already.

Now Patsha didn’t dare attack the BOSS anymore, but could only hide on the side. However, he had secured the second place on the BOSS damage contribution leaderboard. Unless Doya and Noya could snatch the last hit on the BOSS, it was unlikely they would surpass him!

“Song Jian would never let you snatch the final blow, let alone touch the BOSS. If you’re not afraid of dying, you can give it a try!” Patsha glanced at Doya and Noya, and his eyes brimmed with thick mockery upon seeing the frustration on their faces.

As long as one inflicted damage on the BOSS, even just a little, they had the right to loot the spoils. Although these two might not dare to compete with the BOSS for treasures, this was, after all, the Assessment World. Even if Song Jian killed them, as long as they grabbed a piece of treasure, it would be a huge profit, since they might even have completed golden side quests by then!

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword, slash!

With a light shout, the dancing Spirit Swords suddenly converged above the head of the BOSS. In no time, a huge long sword, about thirty meters in length, fiercely slashed down towards the top of the BOSS’s head!

“Don’t even think about it…” The BOSS showed a ferocious expression, and all the wings on his back burst open at the same time. The surging power flowed entirely into the body of the BOSS.

It swung the Divine War Halberd in its hand, meeting the overhead long sword head-on;

Boom~

With a loud noise, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword, upon collision with the halberd, instantly dissipated, causing Song Jian’s eyebrows to furrow.

King Smolahan burst into hearty laughter, but this attack had also cost him nearly three hundred thousand Vitality Points!

“Too bad~” Song Jian said softly. If that sword had struck true, it could have instantly slain the BOSS, but the halberd in its hand was a gift from the gods, just like the Eye of Dispelling Delusion, containing a sliver of the divine power of the Twelve-winged God of Light. It was not something that an ordinary Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Array could contend with!

“Since I can’t kill you instantly, then I’ll just grind you down!” Song Jian snorted coldly, and along with the golden holy lion and the golden giant Gulu at his side, they all pounced towards the BOSS.

The BOSS, with less than a million Vitality Points left, quickly lost its last chance to struggle under Song Jian’s attacks. When its body limply fell, a drop of blood shining with golden light floated up from its corpse.

At the same time, around its corpse burst forth five or six items shimmering with golden and purple light. Although these items couldn’t be taken out of the Assessment World, they could enhance the evaluation for passing the level!

System: The final BOSS of the golden side quest was slain; the quest item, Golden Blood, is about to appear. The person who ultimately obtains the Golden Blood will greatly enhance their passing evaluation!

This system prompt was rather sinister. Had it been another team that struggled to kill the BOSS, this prompt could have led to infighting over the treasure, turning allies against each other for the drop of Golden Blood, but for Song Jian, this wasn’t a danger at all!

Song Jian simply walked over to the corpse and took the drop of golden blood into his palm, then turned to Patsha who had come over and said, “The rest of the stuff is yours!”

“Thanks, boss!” Patsha’s face lit up with joy. After killing the BOSS and ranking second on the contribution list, his evaluation for passing the level jumped up two grades, which was a pleasant surprise for him. Moreover, completing the golden side quest after killing the BOSS boosted his evaluation by an entire tier!

“The quest is complete; we can leave now,” Song Jian told the three of them. He directly pocketed the Golden Blood into his bag without even showing the others its attributes.
