I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1114

Chapter 1114: Chapter 1116: Auction_1 Chapter 1114: Chapter 1116: Auction_1 In the game, player strength enhancement consists of personal attributes, equipment, and various support items; however, battle pets are one of the fastest methods to increase a player's power.

Training a battle pet only takes about a month or even just ten days. Once a battle pet has matured, there are countless instances where its combat power surpasses that of the player. This has resulted in the high and persistent pricing of battle pets, even exceeding the cost of mounts and flying mounts.

Even a white-quality battle pet will be snapped up very quickly as long as someone is willing to sell it.

This time, the Titan Worm Mother dropped a golden-grade battle pet, a rarity that basically has no market price because of its quality; even when one does appear, it would only be through internal transactions and would not be made available on the open market.

After killing the Titan Worm Mother, the sealed area was completely opened, allowing for free entry and exit. Song Jian immediately posted the battle pet egg's attributes on the alliance channel, instantly sparking a fierce competition among a large crowd.

“City Lord, the Abyss invasion plot has already begun!” Wang Qi directly messaged Song Jian.

“It started?” Song Jian was startled, “So suddenly?”

Ever since the system issued the Abyss invasion forewarning, Song Jian had been waiting, not expecting that it would begin today.

“Could the appearance of that Nathael just now be related to the Abyss invasion?” A thought suddenly flashed through Song Jian's mind.

“Are the defensive measures all set up?” Song Jian asked.

“Almost, there are only two more days needed for the defensive light curtain…” Wang Qi replied.

The defensive light curtain is a city's most vital defense facility. Not only can it block various energy attacks, but it can also prevent individuals with stealth and flying abilities from entering the city, significantly enhancing a city's security.

“Unfortunately, the City of Hope was built too recently and lacks a deep foundation. If only we had a guardian beast like Fengming City's…” Song Jian couldn't help but think of the Phoenix statue in the central square of Fengming City, capable of stopping the monsters from Scorching Gorge with its power alone. A city guardian beast is undoubtedly the most crucial part of a city's defense.

Suddenly, Song Jian thought of his own Black Dragon battle pet. If the Black Dragon could grow up, it might not be much weaker than the Phoenix of Fengming City. But unfortunately, the Black Dragon was still too young. Members of the Dragon Clan needed at least a millennium to reach their peak strength.

“All the Abyssal Instances near the city have been destroyed, so we don't need to worry about Abyss creatures invading for a while. However, according to intelligence, most of the Abyss creatures that appeared earlier were low-level beings below level thirty, and not a single player has encountered any…” Wang Qi reported to Song Jian.

“They are probably just the vanguard, cannon fodder. The monsters that will appear later will be more numerous and stronger. We cannot stop fortifying the city's defenses for a moment. The stronger our defenses, the safer we'll be!” Song Jian declared.

While Song Jian was discussing how to enhance the city's defenses with Wang Qi, in the alliance channel, the bid for this golden-quality Titan Worm beast egg had already skyrocketed to an astronomical price.

“Fifteen million Doomsday Coins! A golden-quality battle pet, I'm just missing a high-quality pet, brothers, please let me have it!”

“You're missing one, and so am I. High-quality battle pet eggs are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. There aren't even ten in the whole City of Hope, and that's counting City Lord's Gulu the Stone Elemental and the Black Dragon. I won't give up on this bug beast egg, sixteen million!”

“Ugh, the bug looks so ugly, I'd be embarrassed to take it out. Seventeen million!”

“I'm choking, if you find it ugly, why bid higher? Let this one go for me, you can buy the next good-looking one! Eighteen million!”

In the alliance channel, as soon as the pet egg was listed, the price immediately shot up from eight million and in no time had already climbed to eighteen million!

“Twenty million Doomsday Coins, one thousand Contribution Points!” a voice rang out in the guild channel, and the channel immediately fell silent.

“Damn, Black Wind, you're going all out, aren't you? That's most of the Contribution Points you've saved up over the past six months. Are you using all of them this time?” someone suddenly exclaimed.

“A thousand Contribution Points, bowing down to the big shot!”

“So impressive, I've had my eyes on a piece of equipment in the guild warehouse. I've been saving up for over two months and only gathered just over two hundred points…”

“Black Wind, weren't you planning to exchange for that level forty-five Dark Gold Quality cloak? Not anymore?”

Black Wind: “What do I need a cloak for if I have a battle pet? Golden Quality battle pets are too rare. Once it's trained, I could solo a Lord-level boss of the same level and get myself a Dark Gold Quality cloak!”

In the City of Hope, guild Contribution Points are even more precious than Doomsday Coins. You can exchange Contribution Points for Doomsday Coins, but you can't exchange Doomsday Coins for Contribution Points. Moreover, the items in the guild warehouse all require Contribution Points to redeem, which is why many players in the City of Hope have the habit of saving up Contribution Points.

After Black Wind bid twenty million Doomsday Coins and one thousand Contribution Points, a full three minutes went by without anyone else making an offer. Song Jian laughed and said, “Congratulations, Black Wind, the Battle Pet Egg is yours!”

“Congratulations to Black Wind, for scoring a Golden Quality Battle Pet Egg!”

“Congrats! Once you've raised the battle pet, remember to take your little brothers along!”

“Big spender, Black Wind, you really have guts!”

“Thank you, boss. I'll definitely raise this battle pet well!” Black Wind said excitedly in the guild channel.

“Yeah, this is a Battle Pet Egg from a King Level BOSS, so it's bound to have great potential!” Song Jian remarked, and he also took a picture of the Titan Worm Mother's corpse and posted it to the guild channel.

“What, a King Level BOSS? Damn, Black Wind, you've hit the jackpot!” exclaimed someone in the channel.

“Boss, why didn't you say earlier that it was dropped by a King Level BOSS? If I knew, I would have gone all in, even if I had to go bankrupt, to get that Battle Pet Egg. What a loss!”

“What kind of BOSS is this, to be so huge? It's got to be seven or eight meters, right? Even dead, it looks terrifying. This Battle Pet Egg must have inherited its bloodline; maybe it can grow to be King Level as well!”

“The Titan Worm Mother, this BOSS is called the Titan Worm Mother. Oh my God, I think I've seen it in the library. This is one of the ancient Titan's warrior breeds! Only twenty million Doomsday Coins and one thousand Contribution Points for it? It's practically a steal. Black Wind, I'll offer thirty million Doomsday Coins and one thousand five hundred Contribution Points for this pet. Sell it to me.”

Black Wind said with surprise and delight in his tone: “A King Level BOSS? I thought it was just a Lord Level BOSS. Above Lord Level is Domination Level, and above Domination Level is King Level, isn't it, City Lord?”

Song Jian replied: “That's right, above Domination Level is King Level, probably the highest-grade BOSS discovered to date.”

“Thank you so much, City Lord. I'll be sure to raise this battle pet well. In the future, it's going to be my signature beast!” Black Wind laughed heartily: “I won't sell this battle pet; it's going to be my signature beast in the future!”

Thanks to “Qin Shi Huang X” for the gift of 100 starting coins~
