I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1210

Chapter 1210: Chapter 1212: Abyss Death Lord Chapter 1210: Chapter 1212: Abyss Death Lord The monsters within the Dark Prison were numerous, and most of them had been inmates imprisoned there before, but due to a lack of supervision over a long period, the weaker monsters had all died gruesome deaths within their cages, while the powerful ones had broken free and roamed the prison as if it were their own monstrous playground.

As Song Jian approached the source of the roaring, he noticed that there were fewer and fewer monsters around him. It seemed that the strength of this big creature was formidable, frightening all other monsters away from getting too close. With this in mind, Song Jian became even more vigilant.

Continuing along a passage, Song Jian soon saw a red glow emanating from ahead, like lava slowly flowing.

Just as Song Jian passed a cross junction in the corridor, he suddenly discovered a particularly frightening torture device in the center of the junction. It looked like a suit of human armor, made entirely of fine iron from head to toe, designed to seal a person inside.

Simultaneously, the limbs of this armor were firmly attached to a cross, with fist-sized holes on its surface. At this moment, each hole had a sword inserted into it, some piercing right through the armor, with dark, brown stains spreading from the holes and trailing down to the ground. Song Jian believed that if he were to open this device, a creature would definitely be found inside!

“Why would there be such a torture device here?” Song Jian frowned, knowing that this prison was the ultimate torture device for monsters; where every moment, they felt their Vitality being inexplicably drained. If the monster wasn't extraordinarily strong, it wouldn't take long before it was sucked dry into a mummy. There seemed to be no need for a torture device like the one before his eyes!

Song Jian thought for a moment and then cleaved through the lock on the torture device with one strike of his sword, “Click,” and half of the armor fell off, revealing the situation inside.

Indeed, a humanoid creature was securely fixed inside the armor. On the inner walls, many steel spikes about an inch long stuck out; once a person was imprisoned inside, these spikes would inevitably pierce into the body. At the same time, the swords that had been thrust from the outside had also pierced through the humanoid creature. Although it had died and turned into a mummy, the creature's face still bore the traces of the agony and struggle it had endured.

The humanoid creature before his eyes was clearly not human; even though it had become a mummy, its body still retained many non-human traces.

Song Jian lightly prodded the mummy with his Sky-breaking Sword, and as a result, the mummy, which lacked support, fell down like a pile of ashes–the body already too decayed to be recognizable.

A grayish-white soul drifted out from the ash remains of the body, a look of relief apparent on its face. It gave Song Jian a glance and pointed towards its own body, then slowly dissipated into the air.

“This torture device can actually imprison souls?” Song Jian exclaimed in surprise.

This torture device not only inflicted physical torment on its prisoners but also imprisoned their souls. If Song Jian hadn't accidentally destroyed it, it's likely that the creature's soul would have remained trapped inside forever, never finding release.

Thinking about it, Song Jian felt a chill down his spine; there must be an immense hatred to confine a person within such a device.

Remembering that the soul had pointed to its body before finding release, Song Jian was struck with a thought and sifted through the decayed remains of the mummy. Soon enough, he found a purple gemstone among the ashes.

This purple gemstone was completely clear and cylindrical. Unlike other smooth and polished gemstones, it had many facets like a diamond and even held a faint, cool chill when held in his hand.

“Is this a… Soul Crystal?” Song Jian examined the attributes of the item in his hand, his face revealing an unexpected expression.

A Soul Crystal is a type of forging material that can enhance the success rate and mutation rate of equipment forging. It is also a special material for casting spells, needed by Mage-class professions when making Magical Puppets.

The Soul Crystal in Song Jian's hand was of an exceedingly high quality, almost comparable to an epic-level piece of equipment!

Song Jian rubbed the Soul Crystal in his hands a couple of times, and a streak of dark gold light blossomed from within the crystal. This was a Dark Gold Quality Soul Crystal, definitely capable of creating a powerful Magical Puppet.

“This really is an unexpected joy!” Song Jian thought to himself, his mind also starting to watch for similar torture devices in the passageways!

Soon, Song Jian spotted in a metal cage ahead, a giant monster being held captive. The monster looked like an oversized beetle, its body covered in a thick layer of armor-like hard shell, dotted with spike-like protrusions.

Its head was tiny, with two antenna as thick as fingers protruding from it, and these antennas would occasionally emit dazzling red light, reminiscent of red lightning.

Underneath its body were eight limbs, arranged in two rows, supporting its massive frame!

The monster continuously let out deafening roars from its mouth filled with sharp fangs, relentlessly tearing at the iron bars that imprisoned it!

Sizzle~
Streams of blue electricity coursed over the iron bars, and periodically, crescent-shaped bolts of energy more than a foot long were triggered by its gnawing, striking its body.

“A level 100 domination-level BOSS, Abyssal Death Lord?” Song Jian squinted his eyes, carefully examining the attributes of the gigantic monster.

Upon releasing the Eye of Insight, as expected, it drew the enmity of the Abyssal Death Lord. The Abyssal Lord, which was originally tearing at the bars, abruptly turned around and roared non-stop in Song Jian's direction, its vast body charging at the bars like a tank.

Boom~
A thunderous crash rang out as a massive current zapped the Abyssal Death Lord from the bars, blasting it away, and the toppled Death Lord seemed to fall into unconsciousness, lying motionless on the ground. It took a good while before its antennae twitched slightly, and it managed to get up from the ground.

The stunned Death Lord, apparently forgetting its hatred for Song Jian, slowly got up, shaking its head while its body staggered. That previous collision seemed to have dealt it considerable damage.

The Death Lord, now awake, continued to brush against the surrounding bars, with electricity continuously releasing from them. Song Jian's brow furrowed slightly; this Death Lord seemed to be consciously draining the electrical energy of the bars.

Just then, a mosquito-like voice suddenly rang out by Song Jian's ear, “Could you lend me a little assistance, my friend?”

As the voice echoed, Song Jian's quest log also suddenly underwent a change with the trial mission of the Demon Suppression Tower.
