I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 889 - 890 Ancient Red Dragon_1
Chapter 889: Chapter 890 Ancient Red Dragon_1
After killing a Dominion-level BOSS, my alchemy skill climbed to Junior Level Six, and my level rose to 40. My bag was stuffed with a variety of items for level 40, but the Black Dragon, my battle pet, was left behind in the Toxic Swamp. I wasn’t sure if I ended up gaining or losing overall.
Back at Manor Castle, I tossed all the loot into the guild warehouse. You have to realize, there aren’t many players right now who can hunt monsters above level 40.
When Wang Qi saw so many level 40 and above items suddenly appearing in the guild warehouse, he knew Song Jian had returned and quickly headed over to Manor Castle.
“Lord, how did you manage to level up in less than a day?” Wang Qi asked bluntly.
You should know that leveling up from 39 to 40 requires far more combat experience than from level 30 to 39. Ordinary players would have to stay at level 39 for at least a month or two before they could even hope to reach level 40.
“It’s nothing, I simply swept through all the monsters in the Toxic Swamp,” Song Jian said with a smile.
“All the monsters in the Toxic Swamp…” Wang Qi was momentarily speechless. The swamp was tens of kilometers in area – leaving aside the monsters, just the toxic miasma suffusing the whole swamp was something ordinary people couldn’t withstand, which is why almost no one wanted to grind there for levels.
Wang Qi didn’t believe that the monsters in the Toxic Swamp would let Song Jian hunt them at will without resistance, and doubted Song Jian’s ability to tread every inch of the swamp in less than a day’s time.
Song Jian chuckled and began to recount his experience in the Toxic Swamp. When he heard that there was indeed a Dominion-level BOSS in the swamp, Wang Qi couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.
Just as they were chatting, a dragon’s roar suddenly resonated overhead the City of Hope. Song Jian was elated, but he soon realized that the roar above wasn’t emitted by the Black Dragon.
This dragon’s roar was filled with majesty, the sound deep and slightly hoarse, while the Black Dragon’s roar was much clearer.
Accompanied by this dragon roar, a shrill alarm rang out in the City of Hope, and nearly all the Magic Crystal Railguns aimed at the giant figure in the sky.
Song Jian and Wang Qi exchanged a look and stepped out of Manor Castle to gaze upwards.
In the sky, a massive shadow blotted out the sun. It was a terrifying behemoth over a hundred meters in length with wings spanned out over two hundred meters, its body covered in crimson scales that shined dazzlingly under the sunlight, as if it was cloaked in red flames.
“Third, third tier combat power!” Song Jian’s face turned pale at once. If it had been a Giant Dragon with just second tier combat power, he would have had the confidence to contend with it for a while and, relying on the City of Hope’s defenses, may even have had the chance to slay it. But third tier combat power was beyond the limit of what he could handle!
The other players did not understand the terrifying strength of the Giant Dragon overhead, but they were overwhelmed by the frightening aura it exuded, struggling even to breathe.
A flash of red, and the terrifying beast above vanished. In its place stood a lady in a long red robe with two dragon horns on her head.
The lady silently floated in mid-air, her wings – at least two sizes larger than her body – spread out behind her like a cape.
Watching a Red Dragon transform into a human form, Song Jian couldn’t help but let out a groan, “Damn it, an Ancient Red Dragon!”
Seeing the Red Dragon in human form, the last bit of resistance in Song Jian’s heart was also dispelled. Such a terrifying existence was simply not something that the current Song Jian could handle,
“Is it you who has imprisoned one of my kin and treated it as a humiliating battle pet?” The Red Dragon Lady, as if descending steps, walked down through the air, one step at a time, until she stood in front of Song Jian.
Her eyes shone like a pair of dazzling rubies, staring intently at Song Jian, radiating a fierce intent to kill,
“Petty human, the noble Dragon Clan is not something you can provoke. If you don’t want to perish along with this city, then quickly summon that pitiable Black Dragon and let me take it away…” said the Red Dragon Lady;
At this time, the City Defense Army of the City of Hope had already begun to assemble, a force of thousands of NPC troops appearing before everyone’s eyes, each NPC Guardian being level fifty, possessing first-tier combat power.
At the same time, several Magic Crystal Railguns also slowly turned around, aiming at the Red Dragon Lady, ready to raze the surroundings to the ground with just one signal,
The Red Dragon Lady seemed utterly unconcerned with these threats, even revealing a hint of mockery in her dark-red eyes.
Song Jian furrowed his brows, directly summoned the Lord’s Order, and issued the command to disband the City Defense Army and reset all Magic Crystal Railguns to alert mode rather than pre-firing status;
Song Jian had complete control over the entire city and could easily mobilize all of its resources,
After seeing Song Jian’s actions, the Red Dragon Lady let out a cold laugh and said, “What, the defense forces of this city don’t give you peace of mind?”
“For a member of the Ancient Dragon Clan with third-tier combat power and the ability to transform into a human form, this newly built city poses no threat to Your Excellency’s power!” Song Jian said with a bow to the Red Dragon Lady, “May I have the honor to know your name, respected Lady!”
“My name is Eugenia, and I am an Ancient Red Dragon who has lived for three thousand years!” declared the Red Dragon Lady in a flowing red cloak;

“Respected Eugenia, I am Song Jian, the master of this city!” Song Jian said, “I indeed have a Black Dragon battle pet, but it was not acquired through contemptible means. We made a pact of combat alliance when it was very young.”
“As far as I know, even the Ancient Dragon Clan has had instances of fighting alongside humans, some of the Dragon Clan even becoming mounts for humans, which is why humans have professions such as Dragon Knights!” Song Jian said gravely, “But why can’t I have a Black Dragon as a fighting companion?”
“What you said is true; any human who can gain the approval of the Dragon Clan can also gain their friendship and assist them in fighting during their brief lives,” the Red Dragon Lady frowned slightly, seemingly impatient, yet still explained, “But such things can only happen between humans and adult dragons, and you have beguiled a young dragon and made a pact of combat with it while it was still a juvenile. This is not permitted by the Dragon Clan, as it would limit its growth!”
“Can’t make a combat alliance with a juvenile dragon?” Song Jian was stunned; he had never heard of such a thing before.
