I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 542: Wild King Bee

Boom, Boom~

Two hot balls of fire hit the Wild King Bee, immediately grabbing its attention.

A low hum as loud as a bomber filled the air, the Wild King Bee moved with astonishing speed, leaving after-images as it rushed towards the two fire-elemental elves.

Swoosh, Swoosh~

As soon as it was about three meters away, the Wild King Bee shot two poisonous stings. The finger-long stings, emitting purple-black light, left a trailing afterimage on Song Jian’s cornea before directly hitting the bodies of the two fire-elemental elves.

Bang! Bang!

The sharp poisonous stings, like two sniper bullets, blew a large hole in the chests of the fire-elemental elves. The purple-black poison spread in an instant, coloring their entire bodies, turning even their surface flames into purple-black fire.

After shooting out its stings, the Wild King Bee charged violently at one fire-elemental elf, and after a series of “chomp and bite” sounds, the elf’s head showed a successive loss of fifty to sixty vitality points.

In less than three seconds, this fire-elemental elf exploded completely.

After killing one fire-elemental elf, the Wild King Bee rapidly flew towards the other one, but this time, instead of using its “chomp and bite” skill, it used a normal attack. It took a good ten plus seconds to kill the second fire-elemental elf.

Just as it finished off the two fire-elemental elves and was preparing to target Song Jian, Song Jian’s Golden Demonslaying Sword had already viciously slammed onto it.

With a “thump” sound, the Wild King Bee was sent somersaulting, tumbling several rounds in the air and emitting a hum.

Swoosh, Swoosh~

Two more poisonous stings were shot at Song Jian. Ordinary Wild Bee stings, he could resist relying on his equipment, but the stings of the Wild King Bee, Song Jian didn’t even dare to try, directly activated his Frost Shield and darted aside.

Thump, Thump~

With two muffled sounds, the poison stings grazed the edge of the Frost Shield and flew away, causing a large part of the ice shield to explode.

Song Jian had a scare. The two near misses reduced the shield’s 800 vitality points to critical red. Only a thin layer of the Frost Shield was left on the surface of his body.

Sword Silk!

Song Jian wielded his long sword in the air, and three strands of hair-thin Sword Silk appeared out of thin air, lashing viciously on the carapace of the Poison King Bee, leaving three white marks.

-122

-142

-135

Three damage points of over one hundred, and three slightly smaller damage points floated up from the top of the Poison King Bee’s head. Song Jian spun around, his dark gold sword blade flickering with a trace of blue electric light.

Flash Thunder Strike!

Crackle, Crackle, Crackle~

Three sword Qis carrying lightning damage hit the Poison King Bee almost simultaneously, instantly cracking its hard exterior shell.

The King Wasp let out an angry, piercing shriek, its form shooting towards Song Jian like lightning. The sharp tool on its mouth was full of fierce barbs, once it used its “Sting Bite” technique, it could easily tear open any sturdy defense;

Tai Chi Sword Skill!

Song Jian swung his long sword, and a light flow of creamy white Qi began to encircle his body;

Ding Ding Ding Ding~

A flurry of sounds like rain striking banana leaves rang out. Over Song Jian’s head floated words like “Evade” and “Resist”. Even when damage was dealt, it amounted to just single digits, so insignificant it could be disregarded;

Song Jian’s Tai Chi Sword Skill was only Level 2, too low to cause serious damage or break through the King Wasp’s defense. But the essence of Tai Chi Sword Skill lay in its defense; no attack, however powerful, could break through it;

It could not only weaken an enemy’s attack, but also make one immune to all negative states, and even had the chance to rebound enemy attacks. If anyone claimed Tai Chi Sword Skill to be the ultimate defensive sword skill, Song Jian would not disagree;

After the King Wasp’s “Sting Bite” technique was used, it caused less than thirty points of damage to Song Jian, even less than a normal attack;

This was the attacking pattern of the Boss that Song Jian had figured out by sacrificing two Fire Elemental Sprites. He temporarily had no good way to deal with the King Wasp’s quick double poison needle attack and could only put up a defense shield to resist it. His Tai Chi Sword Skill was indeed the perfect counter to the “Sting Bite” technique, a damage-over-time skill.

Sweeping Sword Style!

The long sword in Song Jian’s hand suddenly grew heavy and swung thrice in succession at the King Wasp. The intense Qi overlapped and exploded within the King Wasp’s body;

Boom, Boom, Boom~

Three times the damage, each time more intense than the last, causing the King Wasp to stagger slightly in the air;

Flash Thunder Strike!

Three sword Qi – each with the attribute of lightning – once again struck the King Wasp. The Flash Thunder Strike, with a cooldown of only ten seconds, could almost be considered a standard attack. Moreover, its lightning attribute perfectly countered the King Wasp, causing tremendous damage;

The fight continued. Song Jian mercilessly executed sword skills to attack the King Wasp while remaining vigilant for any potential new techniques the King Wasp could unleash;

The King Wasp’s vitality kept decreasing, and after more than ten minutes, its Vitality Points had dropped to quarter. A hint of joy appeared on Song Jian’s face. At this rate, in another five to six minutes at the most, the already deeply wounded King Wasp would meet its demise under his sword;

A few minutes later, just as Song Jian was preparing to reap the fruits of victory, he suddenly detected a whiff of blood. Song Jian, who was in the midst of attacking the King Wasp, seemed to sense something. The sword strike he had already launched was swiftly drawn back, and he lashed out with a slash of sword Qi behind him based on instinct;

Clink~

The figure of a rogue slowly appeared, with crossed daggers in his hands, employing the ‘Parry’ skill to repel the sword Qi released by Song Jian.

“How did you detect me?” Kun Jue asked in surprise, looking at Song Jian.

As a top-ranked assassin within the Death God’s Scythe organization, Kun Jue was known for his ‘unpredictable appearances’. This, in no small part, was due to his stealth technique having reached the maximum level 10. Even when passing by high-level creatures with great power, Kun Jue would go unnoticed;

Some even met their end at his hands without having any clue who attacked them.

“Death’s Scythe?” Song Jian’s eyebrows furrowed as he squinted at the strange symbol on Kun Jue’s leather armor;

The Death God’s Scythe had dispatched a second assassin at this time, but how they learned that the first assassin had died was anyone’s guess.

Kun Jue was level thirty and had picked the suitable profession of a rogue for the assassin. Had Song Jian not detected him earlier, he might have fallen into a pincer attack just now.

“Such persistent ghosts!” Song Jian’s eyes narrowed as a chilling murderous intent surfaced.
