I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Items Dropped

Third, fourth, fifth, sixth…

It was not until the seventh one, a Level 32 elite BOSS, that Song Jian got serious;

This was a huge earth elemental, towering over three meters tall, its body made of solid rocks, its eyes were two large sapphires, and in the middle of its forehead, there was a diamond-shaped black crystal;

“Earth Elemental Leader Ulath (Elite), Level: 32; Vitality Points: 9800/9800; Special Traits: Super Defense, Damage Reflection;”

“It’s over, we’re up against a melee nemesis!” despair appeared on Gao Dongxin’s face.

Previously, Song Jian had taken down the lower-leveled bosses with ease which had thrilled Gao Dongxin, however, this newly appeared boss had challenged them twice before. Both previous times had ended with the same result: it reflected high defense and melee damage, irrespective of the attack.

The two melee challengers were killed by the reflected damage.

Song Jian primarily used his one-handed sword as his weapon, which gave Gao Dongxin the impression that he was a swordsman, a class of melee combatants. This earth elemental boss seemed to have a crippling effect on him.

“Maybe he can create a miracle?” Zhao Dan comforted, but a trace of helplessness appeared on her face.

That’s the risk of arena challenges. If a creature that you can suppress shows up, it doesn’t matter if it’s higher level than you. But if you encounter a creature that suppresses you, your outcome is certain death;

That’s why, even though Zhao Dan was already level 30, she hadn’t thought about attempting to score ten consecutive wins. After all, the reward for ten wins was more than just a game invitation card;

When everyone in the audience saw the seventh monster, an Earth Elemental Leader, they all started buzzing. They, too, knew that this boss was a melee nightmare, and this human challenger was in big trouble.

“Tear him to shreds, big stone, avenge your fallen comrades!”

“This human is no match for you, take him down, I’ll reward you with a magic crystal!”

…

The arena spectators could reward the combatants based on their performance, but it seemed that they knew that the challengers were all Earth humans, so none of them ever rewarded the human challengers. Their rewards went to the monsters that killed the challengers;

Magic crystals were like a tasty treat for earth elemental, one of their favorite foods. But these magic crystals were expensive and difficult for them to obtain normally;

The earth elemental moved slowly, shaking the ground with each step. The arena floor vibrated with its movements;

A smirk appeared on Song Jian’s face as he summoned a meter high little stoneman beside him;

“Gulu, Gulu~” As soon as the little stoneman appeared, it hugged Song Jian’s thigh, mumbling as though upset about being left alone for so long;

“Alright little guy, it’s time for battle.” Song Jian patted the smooth head of the little stoneman and smiled;

“Gulu Gulu~”

Upon hearing about the battle, the little stoneman instantly became alert and turned to look at the Earth Elemental Leader approaching step by step;

Seeing the form of the Earth Elemental Leader, the little stoneman looked down at itself, its eyes filled with confusion.

Song Jian then brandished his sword, sending wave after wave of Sword Qi towards the Earth Elemental Leader, attacking it from a distance of five to six meters. Even so, he was still subjected to reflected damage, albeit weaker than close combat;

Song Jian frowned and stopped attacking, instead, he gave a push off the ground and quickly retreated;

The little stoneman also joined in the attack, throwing stone balls the size of a human head at the Earth Elemental Leader like bullets. But these rocks caused little damage, it could be said that the little stoneman’s attack was completely countered by the Earth Elemental Leader.

Although the damage was insignificant, the little stoneman, following Song Jian’s command, continued to throw stones at the Earth Elemental Leader;

“See, he’s not the Earth Elemental Leader’s match. This monster’s damage reflection is too powerful!” Gao Dongxin looked at Song Jian’s rapid retreat, disappointment smeared across his face as he remarked.

“Not necessarily, look at his Sword Qi attack just now, it did quite some damage to the Earth Elemental Leader!” Zhao Dan suggested.

“The higher his attack damage, the higher the reflected damage he’ll suffer. The Sword Qi attack is too short, even though it can weaken the reflected damage, how could his vitality points compare to that of the BOSS? He’ll be killed by the BOSS eventually.” Gao Dongxin sighed, saying.

“Why did he summon a little stoneman? It’s hilarious. He did no damage, not even a minor disruption. Look, the Earth Elemental Leader doesn’t even care about it!” Zhao Dan pointed at the little stoneman and laughed.

“It’s over, it’s over, we Gao family have really lost this time, both the lady and the army, a golden set weapon!” Gao Dongxin gave out a howl, directly lying on the sofa, not wanting to continue watching.

Just then, a quiet command echoed in the middle of the arena: “Sword Control Technique!”

Hum~

He threw his long sword into the air. With a soft sound, the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword instantly split into four long swords, flying towards the Earth Elemental Leader like meteors;

Broken Wing Dance!

Flash Thunder Strike!

Sweeping Sword Style!

Light Strike!

…

Each long sword launched different sword techniques at the Earth Elemental Leader. At this point, Song Jian was at least twenty meters away, dividing his mind into four to control the four long swords as they continuously slashed at the Earth Elemental Leader;

A series of critical damage floated above the Earth Elemental Leader, it roared in anger, its fists flailed at the swords flying in the air. But the mental control over the swords made them extremely agile, the leader couldn’t touch them at all;n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

This twist of events made the entire audience of the arena roar in rage, yelling at Song Jian in protest. Zhao Dan covered her mouth, her face full of astonishment as she looked at the arena.

When the BOSS’s vitality points dropped to half, it finally reacted and roared as it charged at Song Jian. Seeing the Earth Elemental Leader’s bulky body rushing towards him, Song Jian’s face couldn’t help but form a smirk;

Sword Shadow Step!

Song Jian’s figure turned into a cloud of black fog and swiftly retreated into the distance. The arena was spacious, it was impossible for the slow-moving Earth Elemental Leader to catch up with Song Jian.

About ten minutes later, the Earth Elemental Leader’s vitality points were finally depleted. Its massive body exploded, scattering countless shards of rock that covered an area of five to six meters around it.;

“Huh, what’s this?” Song Jian glanced at the scattered stones of the Earth Elemental Leader and found an item shimmering with a golden light, which intrigued him.
