I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 608 - : Siege

Chapter 608: Chapter 608: Siege

Earth Teeth Assault (Active), Level 3 (MAX), Skill Effect: Launch a tooth-shaped attack on the target in front, dealing 90-110 damage and reducing the target’s movement speed by 40%. Attack Range: 13 meters, Cooldown: 10 seconds, Skill Consumption: 15 Vitality Points.

After the upgrade of Earth Teeth Assault, the damage and attack range were both increased. That wasn’t much, but the “reduce target’s movement speed by 40%” effect was new.

Moreover, most importantly, Earth Teeth Assault at level 3 had already reached max level, and couldn’t be further upgraded, which made Song Jian somewhat puzzled.

He knew that his talent ability “Thick Skin” had been upgraded to level 10 before reaching max, and he had several skills that had been upgraded past level 3 without showing “MAX” and being unable to upgrade further.

When Song Jian’s gaze landed on Earth Teeth Assault, a prompt suddenly appeared behind the skill: “Please select a skill to fuse with.”

This was a prompt that appeared after all skills reached max level. When “Thick Skin” was upgraded to max, a similar prompt appeared, but at that time, Song Jian only had this one skill upgraded to the max level; he couldn’t fuse even if he wanted to.

Song Jian tried to fuse “Earth Teeth Assault” with “Thick Skin.”

Soon, a furnace-like illusion appeared before his eyes, with two empty slots in it. Song Jian dragged the two skills into the slots, and a “Fusion” symbol appeared on the illusory furnace.

System: Skills – Earth Teeth Assault and Thick Skin are starting to fuse. Confirm? Yes/No

System: Detection shows that the success rate of these two skills fusing is 0.12%, the failure rate is 98.72%, and the mutation rate is 1.98%; If the fusion is successful, the two skills will become a new skill with the characteristics of both skills; If the fusion fails, both skills will be permanently removed; If the fusion mutates, the two skills will become one, and the new skill’s power and effects are unknown.

“What?! A success rate of only 0.12%?” Song Jian was startled and quickly chose to cancel the fusion.

If the Earth Teeth Assault skill disappeared upon failure, so be it, but if his talent skill “Thick Skin” disappeared, Song Jian would cry! Losing “Thick Skin” would reduce his strength by at least 30%, making him unable to resist some skills with special effects.

After he canceled the fusion, Song Jian stepped towards the secret chamber. Even if the item drop from the Fallen Puppet Beast was greatly reduced, it was still an elite level Boss with first-order Combat Power, and Song Jian didn’t want to leave its dropped items lying there for nothing.

After taking just two steps, Song Jian’s face drastically changed. In front of him appeared an invisible but solid barrier that blocked his path; even the hard metal ground began to emit a stench of liquid and mud, like a swamp, with disgusting bubbles rising constantly. Numerous emaciated, fleshless arms emerged from the ground, groping and grabbing at everything, making it difficult to move.

System: You are under the attack of player “Swift Eagle”, and you’ll have the right to fair defense for the next 30 minutes. Killing him won’t increase your evil points; ƒгeewёbnovel.com

System: Upon detection, player “Swift Eagle” is a red-named player; killing him can earn a large number of justice points.

Song Jian took a deep breath. He could feel two powerful forces condensing rapidly at the end of the passage. Both forces had different attributes but shared a common feature – long charging times and astonishing power when unleashed. The goal was to kill him in one hit, leaving him no chance to counter.

Turning around, Song Jian saw three burly men standing at the end of the passage. One of them held a Bone Wand, muttering incantations. The top of the Bone Wand was inlaid with a palm-sized skull, which was emitting a rich green light. The skill trapping Song Jian had a mysterious connection to it.

The other two were also preparing their moves. One raised an oversized hunting bow more than two meters long, and a metal arrow more than one meter long was gathering crimson flame energy, which was full of explosive power and felt ready to explode at any moment.

The other man held both hands above his head with a painful and twisted expression. In front of him was a bizarre Magic Array emitting a dark purple light.

Song Jian narrowed his eyes; it was a Summoning Array, and the man was summoning evil creatures to assist in battle. From the Magic Array, he could sense the strong aura of Abyssal Power.

Immortal Sword Body, activate!

With a soft cry from Song Jian, a dazzling golden light burst from his body. Eight long sword illusions circled his body, slowly rotating. As he stomped his foot, the emaciated arms clutching his ankle were torn apart. Song Jian’s figure transformed into a mass of black mist, charging towards the three enemies.

At level 7, the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Sword Body increased magic resistance by 60%, immunity determination to negative effects by +9, and coupled with the level 10 talent skill “Thick Skin” – which raised resistance by 50% and provided immunity to taunts, slow, charm, corpse poison, paralysis, and other adverse effects – the binding effect of the Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array was almost completely nullified for Song Jian.

“How can this be…” A shocked look appeared on Swift Eagle’s face as he controlled the “Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array”. The opponent could actually break free from the array’s restraints and move freely?

No one whom Swift Eagle had encountered since learning this skill could break free from the Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array’s binding; even level 30 elite level Bosses were limited by the array, having their duration shortened at most. No Boss had ever broken free, let alone other players.

As long as a player was trapped in the array, they could only await death. This was also the reason the other two could boldly charge their long-duration skills.

But as they hesitated whether to abandon the skills they had charged, Swift Eagle controlled the “Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array” and yelled: “Don’t be afraid! Even if he is immune to the binding effect, he won’t be able to break through the array’s defense in a short time!”

The other two looked at each other and decided to trust their teammate instead of canceling their skill.

At that moment, a brilliant golden light burst through the Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array, and a crisp sound like shattering glass rang in the three men’s ears.

Swift Eagle spat out blood, collapsing weakly to the ground with a look of horror in his eyes. Stammering, he muttered: “How… how could this be? The Yīn Hún Jì Miè Array, with a defense rating of 2800 points… he destroyed it in one hit?”
