I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 508 - : Almost Died

Chapter 508: Chapter 508: Almost Died

“She didn’t even hit me directly, just the dagger’s energy, and I already lost 200 Vitality Points…” Song Jian’s face turned pale, and a bad feeling surfaced in his heart.

“Yay, perfect!” Far away, Betty clenched her fists and raised them in excitement, cheering aloud.

“Can we please wait a moment…” Song Jian shouted loudly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

This time, three daggers circled around Song Jian’s head, with one of them slashing through his cheek before embedding into the wooden target. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

…

Three more damage numbers floated above Song Jian’s head, his over two thousand Vitality Points had almost plummeted by half.

“What the hell! Betty has more than ten to twenty daggers on her waist, and my Vitality Points are already almost halved after just four throws. The most important thing is that these are just simple scratches. Song Jian now believes that Betty definitely has the strength to kill him instantly.

Buzz~

With a thought, Song Jian activated the Heart of Ice, and a pale blue Frost Shield appeared around his body.

“With 800 Defense Points on the Frost Shield, it should be able to block at least four more daggers, right?” Song Jian thought to himself.

Upon seeing the Frost Shield surface around Song Jian’s body, a smirk appeared on Betty’s lips. She suddenly feigned realization and yelled, “Oh no, how could I forget? I usually perform blindfolded!”

With that, Betty took out the black cloth used earlier, wrapped it around her eyes twice, and tied it shut.

“Holy crap, is she insane?!” In Song Jian’s mind, a million horses galloped past.

“Why am I upgrading the set? Why do I need to upgrade the Ant Emperor Ancestor Set? Are my Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword not good enough, or can I not single-handedly defeat elite bosses anymore? My equipment already surpasses most players, so why do I need to upgrade this set?” Song Jian felt bitter, wanting to cry.

“Screw this, I’m not playing anymore!” With a thought, Song Jian instantly tried to Morph into a Dark Cloud, seeking escape from the wooden target.

However, he soon received a “skill release failed” notice.

System: You are in a state of Sealed Escape Skills, Morphing into Dark Cloud skill release failed.

“Sealed Escape Skills? Can I even play properly anymore…” Feeling helpless, Song Jian couldn’t help shedding tears of frustration. Unexpectedly, his trump card became useless before it even saw action.

In a panic, Song Jian began struggling vigorously. The wooden target shook, creaking loudly, revealing his incredible strength reaching an astonishing 50 points, bordering on a superhuman level.

Although sealed on the target, the restriction only limited his skills, not his physical attacks. Amidst Song Jian’s struggle, the shackles binding his hands and feet started to sway, and small cracks appeared at the connection point with the wooden target.

Frowning, Betty’s face turned cold, with an icy aura as she snorted. Like a razor-sharp line, she shot the dagger at Song Jian;

Clang clang clang~

This time, the daggers drew even closer to Song Jian, with almost every single one cutting into the Frost Shield. The collision created cracks and shattered the shield completely, the defense instantly reduced to zero.

As all the daggers embedded into the wooden target, Song Jian’s Vitality Points barely hung on, with less than 500 left.

“”I’m going to die!” Song Jian broke out in cold sweat, not hesitating to activate the second shield, the Bloodthirsty Shield.

This was a golden-grade equipment of Song Jian, a special effect of the Ring of Blood;

“Bloodthirsty (Active): Upon activation, the user gains a Bloody Shield with 1000 defense points. 50% of the damage Bloody Shield takes will be converted into Vitality Points for the user. When the Bloody Shield shatters, all enemies within range will take 500 true damage and be inflicted with a trembling state, preventing them from attacking or moving for 3 seconds; Cooldown: 60 minutes”

This ability was much stronger than Frost Shield, but with a long cooldown, Song Jian rarely used this skill, only using it as a last resort in life-and-death situations!

“Huh, you have quite a few life-saving skills!” There was a hint of astonishment in Betty’s eyes. Though her eyes were blindfolded, her strong perception allowed her to detect everything around her, making the blindfold essentially no hindrance;

Betty’s lips curled up, staring at Song Jian with great interest.

For Betty, this was an unconventional challenge. Her thrown daggers had to bring Song Jian’s Vitality Points to the lowest without making any contact, whereas Song Jian only needed to ensure his own survival.

At this point, Betty still had eight daggers on her – four in her hand, and four tucked in her waist;

Her fingers danced, and the four daggers gracefully leaped in Betty’s right hand like mischievous elves, yet completely under her control.

With a flushed face, Song Jian clenched his right hand and broke free from the handcuffs on the wooden target with a bang.

Before Song Jian could show any joy, Betty snorted coldly, and a flash of cold light swiftly flew through the space connecting the handcuffs and the wooden target, nailing the handcuffs firmly back onto the target.

“Don’t move, these daggers don’t have eyes!” Betty warned coldly.

Song Jian instantly felt a chill run up his legs, daring not to move;

Wham! Wham! Wham~

Three more daggers flew past Song Jian’s body and penetrated the wooden target. This time, the red light of the Bloodthirsty Shield violently trembled but remained unshattered;

“Huh, interesting…” Betty appeared to take the challenge more seriously. She drew the remaining four daggers from her waist, clasping her hands together and throwing them with all her strength towards the wooden target;

Pop! Pop! Pop~

The Bloodthirsty Shield finally shattered after three explosive sounds. At the moment the shield shattered, a green light fell on Song Jian from above, raising his Vitality Points from just over 400 to 820;

Simultaneously, a surge of energy erupted from Song Jian’s body. Unable to withstand the 500 true damage, the wooden target behind him broke apart.

“Pop! Pop! Pop~”

The wooden target disintegrated into countless fragments, scattering in every direction. Song Jian was instantly freed and fell from the target to the ground;

At this moment, the last dagger flew at Song Jian’s chest. Had the wooden target not shattered and Song Jian still bound, the dagger would have only struck the left side of his waist on the target. However, as Song Jian fell to the ground, the dagger’s trajectory shifted abruptly from his waist to his chest;

“Watch out!”

Betty’s face changed dramatically. She had only meant to scare Song Jian, not kill him. Seeing the dagger aiming for his chest, she panicked.

At the critical moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Song Jian, transforming into his double;

Abyssal Phantom!

The moment the phantom appeared, the dagger pierced its chest. A damage figure of over 1800 emerged from the phantom’s head, causing the just-summoned Abyssal Phantom to shatter like a soap bubble.
