I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 793 - 794: Merits

Chapter 793: Chapter 794: Merits

“Run!” A player from the Abyss at the front yelled out a heart-wrenching scream, a look of terror flashed across his face as he turned and ran toward the entrance of Demon Slayer Canyon at full speed;

“Can you… escape?” The Wolf Spider Demon Sacrifice spotted the crowd of Abyss Players ahead and a vicious grin broke out on his face. As he raised his Magic Staff, countless tiny, gray light beams burst from the tip of his staff towards dozens of fleeing players;

Each gray light beam headed straight for a running Abyss Player. As the beam neared a player, it suddenly swelled into a giant gray spider web, completely engulfing the player.

Every strand of the web shimmered with a gray metallic sheen, no matter how much the players struggled, they were helpless against the constraining spider web.

The Abyss Demons and players were locked in a life-or-death battle. The Wolf Spider Demon Sacrifice couldn’t pinpoint Song Jian’s exact location, but it sensed he was nearby — likely mixed in among these players.

“Humans, you can’t escape!” The Wolf Spider Demon Sacrifice’s eyes shone with cruelty. With a wave of his Magic Staff, a multitude of Wolf Spider Demons charged toward the crowd. The players ensnared by the spider web wailed in agony, their bodies torn apart by the Wolf Spider Demons;

...

Behind them, the Cerberus Demon Sacrifice let out a furious roar from its three heads, releasing a shower of flaming poison that instantly killed over a dozen Abyss players, among them two NPC Bounty Hunters.

“Damn it, the monsters are rampaging, run!”

“Level fifty Boss monsters, so many of them, what are they trying to do…”

All the Abyss Players were dumbfounded, wishing they had extra legs to escape faster. A tidal wave of monsters was charging at them, forcing even the strongest players to retreat;

Amidst the chaos, Song Jian melded into the crowd, taking on the invisibility of the Abyss Concealment Skill. As the Abyss Gunner turned and fled, Song Jian had already left the heat of the battle and could use the Abyss Concealment Skill.

The crowd was in total disarray, oblivious to the stealthy human right next to them. The Abyss Concealment Skill didn’t slow down Song Jian at all, so he wasn’t running any slower than the others;

“He’s right ahead, don’t let him get away!” The Wolf Spider Demon Sacrifice pointed towards the fleeing mass and roared loudly;

The other Abyss Demon Sacrifices also let out furious roars, commanding the Abyss Demons to chase in Song Jian’s direction;

Only the Wolf Spider Demon Sacrifice Iphisna could detect Song Jian’s location. Other sacrifices could not sense Song Jian’s presence.

Angel Kekaul cluelessly floating in mid-air, suddenly feeling like a burden. Song Jian actually didn’t need its help;

As soon as Song Jian’s Soul Wander cooldown was over, he activated it immediately. With double his normal speed, he swiftly outpaced the pursuing Abyss Players and headed toward the entrance of the Demon Slayer Canyon.

Group after group of Abyss players fell to the ground, with the Abyss Demons behind them looking like a tide. Seeing them, the Abyss players instinctively turned and fled, not having the slightest inclination to fight.

…

Song Jian’s system alert was filling with messages just like a waterfall. In no time, his Honor Points exceeded one hundred, still increasing at a speed of one per second.

All the Abyssal Demons were targeting Song Jian; every Abyss player they killed, Song Jian got part of the “credit” even though he didn’t lift a finger. He was able to share a portion of the honor.

However, the majority of the Abyss players were just ordinary civilians, so for each Abyss player killed by the Abyssal Demons, Song Jian only gained a minor increase in his honor value.

Nonetheless, Song Jian’s honor value was rapidly increasing. When he finally escaped the Demon Slayer Canyon, his honor value had actually surpassed five hundred points. This meant that in just over ten minutes, more than four hundred Abyss players had died within the Demon Slayer Canyon.

Song Jian took a glance behind him, unsure as to what extent the Abyssal Demons would chase him. Perhaps they would cease their pursuit at the entrance of the Demon Slayer Canyon?

However, Song Jian quickly felt an evil intent enveloping him, as if a voice was constantly hissing in his ear: “I will not rest until you are dead!”

“It looks like you guys plan to chase me indefinitely!” said Song Jian coldly, and continued to run forward.

An hour later, the rate at which Song Jian was gaining honor value had gradually slowed, and at last, it almost ceased altogether. By this time, Song Jian’s honor value had reached over eight hundred and thirty points; had he tried to rack up this amount on his own, it would have likely taken him several months.

Song Jian could feel that the demons chasing him had never given up, though the Abyss players behind him had bought him quite a bit of time. Once he had left the Demon Slayer Canyon, the Abyss players had scattered in all directions, but the Abyssal Demons were always on his tail.

Song Jian could feel the Wolf Spider Demon Ritualist getting closer and closer, while his Soul Wander ability was extremely powerful with only a minute’s cooldown. It was thanks to this skill that Song Jian had managed to evade the Abyssal Demons.

Three hours later, Song Jian looked exhausted. Continual use of Soul Wander was a great drain on his body strength; had he not prepared ample supplies before venturing into the Abyssal Hell, his Spirit Points from constantly using his ability would have long been depleted.

However, at this point, a crimson city appeared ahead; it looked as if it was ablaze.

He glanced over his shoulder, a smile creeping onto his face. “If you dare, chase me into the city and kill me there!”

With a thought, Song Jian’s body turned transparent again as he rushed towards the Flame Furnace main city in the Desolate Highland.

There were guards at the city gate, so Song Jian went around and arrived at the foot of the city wall, about ten meters away from the gate, where he quietly waited out the cooldown of his Soul Wander ability.

At this moment, a black thread appeared in the distance, like a tidal wave, rushing towards the Flame Furnace city.

Ding Ding Ding~

At the same time, a warning bell started to ring within the Flame Furnace city. Scores of guards, clad in armored gear, appeared atop the city walls.

Just like the Abyss players, these NPC guards were also transformed, emanating a dense abyssal aura. Although they looked humanoid, they had actually turned into abyssal creatures!

A moment later, the cooldown for Soul Wander was over; Song Jian gave his will and turned transparent again. Like a ghost, he passed through the thick city walls and entered the main city.
