I have an Apocalypse City - Chapter 531

Chapter 531: Chapter 531: Hundred-eyed Vine Tree

Song Jian’s self-destructing robot was chasing Tang Ming, exploding just before reaching the flower garden. Almost all of its power was absorbed by the garden, while Tang Ming only suffered some aftershocks;

The flower garden, originally made of green bricks, had collapsed more than half at this time, and the soil inside was scattered everywhere, along with the colorful flowers, like wilted flowers and broken branches;

This directly enraged the guardians of the flower garden in the small town. Several thick cyan vines emerged from the ground, intertwining in mid-air and forming a large tree;

This tree’s roots were twisted, and its branches were stout. Every green vine was covered with large and small eyes, looking very frightening when seen up close;

When these hundreds of pairs of eyes stared at Song Jian together, even he couldn’t help but feel goosebumps and retreated involuntarily;

“Hundred-eyed Vine Tree, Level 30, Neutral, First Order Combat Power, Vitality Points: 14000/14000, Status: Enraged;”

14,000 vitality points?

Song Jian felt surprised instantly. A level 30 monster, even if it was a lord-level, shouldn’t have 14,000 vitality points. Could it be that the tree in front of him was much more powerful than a lord-level monster?

Whoosh~

A vine as thick as an arm whipped towards Song Jian like a whip. Song Jian instinctively swung his sword to block it;

Bang~

A strong force came, and Song Jian’s arm felt intense pain. His fingers loosened, and the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword was flung away;

“How could this happen…” Song Jian retreated in a hurry, his face showing a look of horror. The power of this tree monster far surpassed his own!

“Fighting it would mean death!” Song Jian realized in his heart and immediately lost the will to fight the tree monster; with a wave of his right hand, the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, which was stuck diagonally in the ground, flew towards him as if controlled by an invisible hand and was caught by Song Jian;

“It seems that I can’t kill him today.” Song Jian glanced at Tang Ming, who was in a semi-conscious state, feeling a little annoyed.

Tang Ming was lying within the attack range of the Hundred-eyed Vine Tree. Even if Tang Ming had only one breath left, one ordinary sword strike could take his life. However, that one sword strike was something Song Jian just couldn’t land;

“It’s a pity. If only I had long-range attack abilities,” Song Jian sighed in his heart.

Sword Controllers belonged to the Swordman class, and all their skills were either close-range or mid-range combat. Among all their skills, Earth Teeth Assault had the longest range, reaching 12 meters. However, even then it was still within the alert range of the Hundred-eyed Vine Tree, and once Song Jian entered this range, he would have to bear the attack of the tree first;

Just then, an angry roar suddenly sounded from the sky. The skeleton giant dragon had already pressed the Black Dragon beneath it. The Black Dragon was bleeding all over its body, even the roots of its fangs were filled with blood. At this time, one of the skeleton giant dragon’s front claws was grabbing the Black Dragon’s neck, while the other huge claw was pressing down on its head;

However, at this moment, the summoning time of the skeleton giant dragon had run out. The thirty seconds it had were fleeting. Looking at the struggling Black Dragon, which still refused to admit defeat, the skeleton giant dragon let out an angry roar. Its figure gradually became illusory;

The Black Dragon turned over, flapping its meat wings and looking around with a confused expression. Soon, it gave up on searching for the figure of the skeletal giant dragon, turned around, and flew towards Song Jian. Before Song Jian could call to it, the Black Dragon turned into a black shadow and automatically entered the Pet Space.

Song Jian looked at the Black Dragon. By now, it had been seriously injured, with less than a third of its vitality points remaining. As it entered the Pet Space, it lay down and fell into a deep sleep.

The Pet Space had the function of slowly healing injuries. As long as the pet didn’t die immediately, no matter how severe its injuries were, it could slowly recover after entering the Pet Space;

Closing the Pet Space, Song Jian looked at Tang Ming’s location;

At this time, Tang Ming had actually woken up from his coma. Although he looked disheveled, there was a victorious smile on his face;

“Song Jian, I told you, you can’t kill me!”

After laughing, a ferocious expression appeared on Tang Ming’s face: “I told you, from now on, you’ll live in my nightmare forever. Just wait, one day, my army of skeletons will level your safe house, and I will present your corpse in front of me, my skeleton warrior!”

Song Jian stared into Tang Ming’s eyes with a calm expression and said, “I also said that I will kill you!”

Tang Ming was taken aback, suddenly feeling a strong sense of threat emerging from his heart.

“Impossible, what means can he use to kill me within the alert range of this small town guardian?” Tang Ming suddenly felt a sense of panic in his heart.

Just then, the Hundred-eyed Vine Tree suddenly shook violently. A shrill roar came from the tree, and the thick vines with the thickness of an arm emitted a sharp breaking sound as they shot towards Tang Ming;

Tang Ming was startled, but soon found that the target of these vines was not him;

“At my back!” Tang Ming was about to turn around when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a dark red sword tip protruding from his chest.

“This is Song Jian’s weapon. How, how did he do it…” Tang Ming’s right hand tightly grasped the sword tip. He looked up and saw Song Jian in the distance, staring at him coldly. Song Jian’s Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword was tightly gripped in his hand;

“It’s his Phantom Clone, I was careless!” Tang Ming suddenly understood and fell to his knees;

As the Abyssal Phantom Clone stabbed Tang Ming, it was also pierced by the tree’s vines and torn into pieces. However, at this point, the Phantom Clone had already fulfilled its mission, so its disappearance didn’t matter.

“When I was unconscious just now, the Shadow Binding had already dissipated…” Tang Ming coughed up blood and regretted in his heart. If he hadn’t been unconscious and lost control of the Shadow Binding, Song Jian’s Phantom Clone would still be tied to the bed in the basement, buried underground along with the entire safe house.

Because of the Shadow Binding, the Abyssal Phantom Clone could not disappear even when its duration was over and was trapped underground.

However, once the Shadow Binding was gone, the Abyssal Phantom Clone was just a mass of energy and floated out from underground, launching a suicidal attack on Tang Ming;

“Cough, cough. Song Jian, even if you kill me, you won’t get off easy. Death’s Scythe won’t let you go. From now on, you’ll live in the fear of being hunted down at any moment. Hahaha.”

Tang Ming’s laughter abruptly stopped, and his body fell heavily to the ground. Soon, the effects of the potion he had taken disappeared, and his body returned to its normal state;

At this moment, a thick vine stretched out and wrapped around Tang Ming’s corpse, slowly pulling it into the collapsed flower garden.
