Chapter 747: Chapter 747: Unsealing
The Sword Demon Zombie swayed on the verge of collapse but still steadfastly refused to fall over. “A crime fought not in battle!” it managed to choke out in a hoarse voice, looking at Ash.
Ash remained silent. If he had not advanced to the rank of the Dawn Holy Knight and restrained the Sword Demon Zombie at every turn, if a human possessed the strength of the Sword Demon Zombie, perhaps he would have been like Song Jian, struggling in a hard-fought battle.
Just as the Sword Demon Zombie fell, a heavenly system prompt sounded in the ears of Song Jian and all the players of the City of Hope Alliance who were fighting to death in the castle.
System: The City of Hope Alliance hunted the “Sword Demon Zombie (First-order Combat Power Peak)”. The monster siege time was shortened by 10 minutes.
System: The monster siege time of the City of Hope has arrived. The monster siege now is over!
System: Congratulations to the City of Hope Alliance, the city has been successfully constructed!
System: Congratulations, you have completed the special task “I am the City Lord”. The City Lord’s seal has been unsealed by 110%!
…
The first few system prompts sounded in the ears of all the City of Hope Alliance players, while the last system prompt was heard only by Song Jian.
“We’ve succeeded, we’ve really succeeded!” Wang Qi, with a bloodstained face and a look of disbelief, looked around at his companions, muttering to himself and seemingly asking his companions to affirm the unbelievable deed.
“We’ve done it, we’ve done it, ha ha ha!”
“I told you, we were surely going to succeed, long live the leader!”
“That’s amazing, the leader actually killed that boss, we won!”
All the Alliance players cheered wildly. The monsters, nearly within reach, were all but invisible in their eyes. All the monsters also stopped attacking at the same time, motionless like statues, even though these players had been fighting them for a long time, and the distance between them was less than a foot.
It was as if a mysterious power controlled all the monsters. Moments later, the red light gradually disappeared from the monsters’ eyes, like awakening from a deep dream. Fear instantly took hold of all the monsters.
With a harsh roar, all the monsters within the territory of the City of Hope Alliance, regardless of their strength, turned tail and ran as if they were being pursued by predators.
“We’ve won!” Song Jian felt a rush of joy and the threat of tears. He never wanted to experience this feeling of survival after a catastrophe again!
“Ash, we owe this victory to you!” Song Jian looked at Ash with gratitude. He had merely schemed him into becoming his Follower, but at the crucial moments he had saved him and the entire Alliance!
“It was my duty, Master!” Ash knelt on one knee on the ground, paid homage to Song Jian, slowly rose, and said, “I’m afraid this is my last time helping you, Master. From now on, I will be a Holy Knight of the Goddess of Dawn and no longer your Follower.”
Song Jian’s face changed. He found the connection between him and Ash slowly weakening until it finally disappeared. In the Followers’ interface, Ash’s attribute interface also disappeared. From then on, Ash was no longer his Follower.
“Ash, you are…”
“I’m sorry, a knight of the Goddess can only serve one master!” Ash said with a blank face, without any reluctance, turned towards the teleportation light door and walked away.
Watching Ash’s figure disappear into the teleportation light door, Song Jian immediately felt a sense of loss. If it wasn’t to sever their relationship, Ash probably wouldn’t have appeared at this critical moment.
Exchanging the construction of City of Hope for a Follower, Song Jian didn’t know whether it was a gain or a loss!
“Forget it, if his heart is no longer here, there’s no point in insisting!” Song Jian shook his head, sighed, and walked towards the body of the Sword Demon Zombie.
During a monster siege, if a monster is killed by an installation, such as a Magic Crystal Railgun, there wouldn’t be any loot drops. But if a player kills a monster, there will be spoils of war!
Now, three items had dropped from the body of the Sword Demon Zombie.
A Skill Book, an Enhancement Stone, and a piece of equipment. Honestly, the items dropped by the Sword Demon Zombie were not bad, but Song Jian still felt a twinge of regret after picking up and checking them.
The Skill Book dropped was “Sword Shadow Clone”. This wasn’t the best skill of the Sword Demon Zombie. From the battle process with the Sword Demon Zombie, its best skill should be similar to Immortal Sword Body’s skill “Sword Demon”. It could temporarily enhance the user’s state massively, just like the Immortal Sword Body. Boosting one’s own attributes was just the basics. The most formidable should be the enhancement of other areas of attributes.
However, without obtaining this Skill Book, Song Jian was unable to know the specific content of “Sword Demon”.
“Skill Book – Sword Shadow Clone (Gold): You can learn the ‘Sword Shadow Clone’ skill after use. Requirements: Mastery of Sword Qi Profession. Sword Shadow Clone: Active skill, Level 1, uses 50% of the user’s Sword Qi to create a clone. The clone inherits 30% of the attributes of the original and all skills of the original with a skill level of 1. It inherits all the basic offensive and defensive attributes of the equipment and weapons of the original while all special effects and skills of the equipment cannot be used!”
Using Sword Qi, it creates a castrated indigent version of oneself, which looks exactly the same on the outside – even the most formidable scanning magic can’t distinguish, but once you start to fight, you can immediately identify which one is the clone and which one is the original.
Song Jian clapped his hands and learned this skill. He stored more than a dozen skill points. Any skill can be directly upgraded as long as it is proficient.
In addition to this Skill Book, the boss also dropped a Enhancement Stone. This Enhancement Stone enhances equipment above +6, and has no quality restrictions. As long as it is an item above +6, it can be used for enhancements. Song Jian had not enhanced any of his equipment, after all, golden Enhancement Stones are rather rare. This Enhancement Stone can only be stored for the time being.
The last piece of equipment was a belt. This belt was just a level 30 silver-grade equipment. Song Jian casually glanced at it and directly threw it into the Alliance warehouse.
Finally, Song Jian brought out the City Lord’s seal. With the mission completed, the City Lord’s seal was fully unsealed, and most importantly, the unsealing degree reached 110%. Ordinary city’s City Lord’s seals could never reach such a high level of unsealing!
The three previously unsealed features were “Fast Construction”, “Quick Repair”, and “Territory Teleportation”!
Unsealing 98% gives only one “Fast Construction”, while unsealing 110% give out two additional skills, “Quick Recovery” and “Territory Teleportation”.
Fast Construction shortens the construction time of a building, up to 50% of the construction time. Quick Recovery can instantly repair the city buildings after being destroyed, but the materials and costs of recovery are three times that of normal recovery.
As for Territory Teleportation, just like before, as long as he is in the city being constructed, Song Jian can teleport to any location, and the cooldown time is very short. This makes it very difficult to assassinate him within the city.
