I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 732: Chapter 732 God Slayer

To construct a Magic Crystal Railgun, a tremendous amount of rare materials are required, materials that are not dropped by ordinary monsters. Only formidable BOSS monsters have a certain chance of dropping them;

There are many such powerful BOSS monsters in Doomsday City, but each of them is surrounded by a swarm of monsters of the same level. To hunt such a boss often requires tedious and time-consuming clearing of the surrounding creatures.

Previously, the lake where Song Jian found the statue of the Healing Goddess was teeming with Elite Level Bosses. The bosses in that lake were as common as ordinary monsters, and there are even more powerful Lord Level Bosses.

This lake is the ideal place for boss hunting and gathering materials. The only downside is that if you lack the strength, coming here is a guaranteed death sentence;

Even with Song Jian’s capability, he cannot sweep through this lake. He has to cautiously lure the Boss monsters one by one and then hunt them;

Within three days, Song Jian had managed to kill over 20 Elite Bosses here, raising his level from 35 to 36. The valuable materials he gathered were sufficient to construct a Magic Crystal Railgun.

At this time, in the City of Hope Alliance, the master builder Kutiya, along with a group of architects, had begun constructing the Magic Crystal Railgun. Remember, Kutiya is a Master Builder, who is capable of constructing many defensive structures independently. His participation increased the progress of the Song Jian’s Alliance tasks by at least 10%;

With only ten days left until the task deadline, Song Jian was still hunting Boss monsters in the lake. He hoped to gather more materials and construct a second Magic Crystal Railgun. A single Magic Crystal Railgun can only defend in one direction. Once the city walls of the City of Hope Alliance are built, they have to defend against enemies from four different directions.

Just as Song Jian was leading a Deepwater Crocodile Beast Boss to the shore, preparing to kill it, a group of people from the Pantheon appeared at the entrance of the resort out of nowhere.

“Are you sure Song Jian is here?” asked a thief with a scar on his face, his voice deep and composed.

“God Slayer, I stake my head on it, Song Jian has been leveling here for the past two days, only returning to the Alliance once, probably to resupply for consumables. If we head forward from here, there’s a big lake, he’s hunting there!” a player with an archer class said softly.

“Alright, wait here, I’m going to meet this number one on the glory rankings!” God Slayer revealed a strange smile, licked the blade of the dagger in his hand with his tongue, and his figure slowly disappeared in place;

“Do you think this guy is a psycho out in the real world?” the archer whispered.

“Quiet!” A player nearby changed his expression and said in a low voice: “He just left. Do you want him to hear you?”

The expression on the archer’s face immediately changed. He looked nervously around, his hand gripping the bow trembling noticeably. Other players huddled around all had expressions of fear on their faces. It was evident that God Slayer held a strong deterrent power over others;

In actuality, the name God Slayer wasn’t his original. Like Zeus, he had also used a name change card after joining the Pantheon, changing his in-game name to “God Slayer”. Moreover, he held one of the positions of the Twelve Main Deities within the Pantheon, effectively making him a core player;

At this time, Song Jian was engaged in intense combat with a Level 33 Elite Boss. Under his control, four long swords kept revolving in mid-air, dealing a tremendous amount of damage to the boss, who was roaring furiously and attacking Song Jian with his skills;

Just as the Boss had only a sliver of vitality left, and Song Jian was preparing to finish him off, he suddenly felt an alarm ringing in his heart. His Spirit attribute had already exceeded 100 points, his senses were several folds or even ten times stronger than those of a regular player. This made things like sneak attacks almost immunized against him;

Normally, he could sense if someone’s gaze lingered on him for a fraction too long, those filled with hostility could be sensed from far away. However, hostile gazes and murderous intentions were different things. At this moment, Song Jian felt the most serious threat to his life.

Filled with urgency, he instantly activated the Frost Shield skill of his Transformation Orb. An ice shield with a defense strength of 3000 points emerged around him;

At this point, Song Jian realized that there was a cut more than a finger-length long on his left cheek;

“The attacker was already right next to me when I sensed the threat!” Realizing this, Song Jian was filled with shock. Who exactly attacked him with such stealth capabilities? Even a max-level stealth skill couldn’t accomplish such a feat;

Looking back at the place where he was standing, Song Jian could only see a shadowy figure disappear back into stealth. The Boss with only a sliver of vitality was killed by the attacker who also took away a third of the experience points. The dropped items didn’t even get a glance from him.

If the attacker hadn’t needed to finish off the monster and collect its drops, Song Jian probably wouldn’t have noticed the figure at all;

“At least two high-level stealth skills!” Song Jian thought to himself.

Ordinary thief and assassin-type players always emerge from stealth to deal damage and then transform into combat thieves to fight directly. If they are at a disadvantage, they will use high-level stealth skills either to deal greater damage or to escape;

With such skills having long cooldowns, they are generally reserved for preserving lives and won’t be employed casually.

The person in front of him, however, immediately disappeared from sight after causing minor injuries, indicating that he was not so stingy with his high-level stealth skills.

The surroundings were deathly silent. A bead of sweat rolled down Song Jian’s forehead, which he dared not wipe clean. He opened the vertical eye on his forehead and started searching his surroundings. Yet, he found no clues;

“How can he be so fast?” Song Jian was puzzled. The speed after stealth was so fast that he couldn’t even track him;

At this time, hiding behind a tree about six meters away from Song Jian was God Slayer. His bloodshot eyes stared unblinkingly at Song Jian through the dense foliage. His dagger still held a droplet of blood from Song Jian’s cheek, which he tasted with his snake-like tongue. He began shaking in excitement;
