I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 628: Chapter 628: The Surprise Attack Squad

After leaving the Protection Black Mist, Song Jian was somewhat surprised to discover that the territory of his Alliance had expanded to the outskirts of the city, all the way to the Black Mist of the Pixiu Tigers;

The moment he stepped out of the Protection Black Mist, he received a system notification.

System: The location you’re now in belongs to the Hope Alliance. You must abide by the rules of the Hope Alliance. Violators will be punished, and in serious cases, you may be expelled.

System: Welcome home, Alliance Leader!

“Has the territory of the Alliance expanded this much?” Song Jian was somewhat surprised and quickly opened the Alliance interface to have a closer look.

During his absence from the City of Hope, many players were weakened, including communication, alliance information, etc. Now that he had returned to the City of Hope, everything had returned to normal. What surprised Song Jian was that the area of the Hope Alliance was ten times larger than when he left.

At this point, the territory of the Hope Alliance encompassed the novice area he was in when he first started the game, taking up nearly a tenth of the city.

“Impressive. It seems like Wang Qi really has the potential to be a leader. Without me, he’s been doing an exceptional job. Excellent!” Song Jian praised happily.

The Alliance only has two Vice Alliance Leaders, one is Wang Qi, and the other is Li Ke’er.

Li Ke’er was too young, and Song Jian did not believe that the Alliance’s prosperity was due to her. However, reality is always more exciting than one’s imagination. Song Jian would be astonished to realize that the Alliance’s decisions and development direction have all been controlled by Li Ke’er.

Just then, Song Jian suddenly noticed that seven or eight players were sneaking over from a distance, and all their names were in red.

Song Jian’s eyebrows furrowed. Red players only exist in two situations: those who have killed too much and have a high sin value, and those who are part of Alliance guilds in territorial expansion battles.

“Hey, look, there’re two Stone Men over there…” A player from the Summit of Heroes Alliance suddenly notices two Stone Men, one large and one small, standing beside the Black Mist in the distance, and immediately points and whispers to his companions.

“Monsters? Isn’t this the territory of the Hope Alliance? Why would monsters still spawn here?” Another player wondered.

At this point, both Song Jian and the Stone Man had red names while maintaining the image of Stone Man. Upon first glance, players would instinctively see them as monsters.

“Song Jian, haha, this monster has a strange name. But why does it sound familiar?” A player, staring at the name above Song Jian’s head, laughed.

“Song Jian, Song Jian…” A player with a red mole on his forehead frowned in concentration, as if recalling something. Moments later, his face paled, and he cried out, “Fog grass! Isn’t this the first ranked player on the Honor of Level List and the leader of the City of Hope Alliance?”

“City of Hope Alliance? Impossible. Hasn’t that player disappeared for a while? If it weren’t for the Honor of Level List still having his name, many people would think he was already dead!” A player argued in disbelief.

“Fog grass, look for yourself, see if the name of that Stone Man is Song Jian or not!” The player with the mole pointed exasperatedly in the direction of Song Jian.

“Ehh, it really is him. Could it be a case of the same name and surname?”

“Are you an idiot? How could there be a person with the same name and surname!”

“But he’s clearly a monster. Maybe he’s even a BOSS. Look, he even has minions…”

Because of Song Jian’s transformation into an Earth Elemental, this led to a dispute among the players from the Summit of Heroes Alliance.

Their small group’s purpose was to sneak attack the Hope Alliance’s interior. If they can’t breach the Alliance Crystal in the Manor Castle, they will seek to destroy as many of the City of Hope Alliance buildings as possible, delaying its development.

There were three groups like these. There weren’t many players in the Summit of Heroes Alliance. Their alliance was only level four, and they had not managed to build a barracks yet. On the frontlines, they still needed a lot of players to resist.

“Let’s not bother with the details. Let’s just kill him first!” The leading player narrowed his eyes, releasing an intimidating murderous aura.

Above Song Jian’s head, only his name was displayed, not his level or Vitality Points. If all his attributes were displayed, these players would probably lose their courage to fight.

Whoosh, whoosh~

A rain of arrows came flying towards Song Jian. It was actually just a dozen arrows. This was only possible because the raiding party from Summit of Heroes had a long-range archer. Without him, they wouldn’t have had the first strike advantage. After all, a stealthy rogue was the most suitable for sneaking in.

Song Jian sneered, stretching out his right hand to summon the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword. He activated the “Rapid Sword” skill, using the long sword in his hand to parry the incoming arrows. After a series of clinks and clanks, the dozen or so arrows were all deflected away by him using ordinary techniques.

This move stunned everyone, and they all stared open-mouthed at Song Jian, then turned to glare at the archer.

“Did… did you go easy on him?” a rogue ventured hesitantly.

“I’ll kick your…” The archer was almost bursting into vulgarities.

Just as he was about to explode, a rogue suddenly pointed at Song Jian and exclaimed, “Quick, look!”

Only then did the group realize that the Stone Man had transformed into a human.

“Fog Grass, it’s Song Jian, Song Jian, the leader of the City of Hope Alliance!” someone yelled in alarm.

“What are you afraid of? There’s only two of them, and we have eight! We’re the majority!” The leader gritted his teeth and said.

“That’s right, this is a golden opportunity. As long as we kill him, we can directly swallow their alliance!” Another rogue, his eyes glazed with fervor, roared like a gambler.

“Let’s do it. Perhaps we can really kill him. He’s the top-ranked player on the Honor of Level List!” The other players exchanged glances, each seeing a burning ambition in the others’ eyes.

Seven rogues simultaneously entered Stealth mode and spread out to approach Song Jian. As for the archer, he continued to hold his bow and arrow, aiming at Song Jian. He didn’t hope to deal much damage, only to obstruct Song Jian’s movements to the best of his ability.

Song Jian completely ignored the existence of the archer. A semi-transparent aura appeared around him, emitting a bloody red light.

Then, an eye slowly opened on his forehead – a Vertical Eye. A silver light shimmered within the Vertical Eye, immediately revealing the movements of the seven sneaking players with perfect clarity.

“You’re all going to die!” Song Jian muttered with a cold, sinister grin at the corner of his mouth.
