Chapter 1280: Chapter 1282: Black Dragon Promotion Chapter 1280: Chapter 1282: Black Dragon Promotion The Demon Bone Monk and the resentful spirits' strength caught Master Yiwen's eye; they had merely received an insignificant portion of the Demon God's power, yet they were already so formidable. At this moment, Master Yiwen, clutching the Demon God's Tusk, could feel the power emanating from it was stronger than any force he had ever witnessed. He longed to possess this power.
“In a world like this, without power, one can only be caged like a beast, slaughtered at will!” Master Yiwen thought to himself, as a hint of black aura flashed briefly in his eyes, followed by a glint of crimson that slowly began to bloom deep within.
Meanwhile, Song Jian had already left that small realm through the Teleportation Gate, returning directly to the City of Hope.
The City of Hope was in the midst of reconstruction, and all the Covenant players began to meticulously search every corner of the city, even the sewers, with more care than they took during the previous construction of the city.
They were looking for the Protection Black Mist Array's diagrams. Once found, Song Jian would be able to perfectly combine the Purple Heaven Thunder Punishing Gods Array with the Protection Black Mist Array to form a new defensive array that would protect the City of Hope.
Upon his return, Song Jian immediately convened the administrative team of the City of Hope, including Wang Qi. On the map, Song Jian marked a 100-kilometer radius around that mysterious town as a forbidden area, banning any players from the City of Hope from approaching.
“This area is occupied by a King Level BOSS, and the adverse effects on Song Ya and the others were caused by a curse from that BOSS…” Song Jian said.
After emerging from the misty town, Song Ya and the two others suffered an 80% decrease in all their attributes, and even the powerful spells of the High Priests of various deities could not cure them. Word of this had spread among the Covenant players, but fortunately, a significant improvement in their condition after a month eased many leaders' concerns.
“A King Level BOSS?” A middle-aged man who appeared to be a Berserker lit up, immediately suggesting, “City Lord, why don't we summon the NPC army and steamroll over there? Even if involving the NPCs lowers the quality of the loot, the spoils from a King Level BOSS are bound to be substantial!”
Song Jian looked at the man and saw a strong desire for battle in his eyes.
The man was just a level sixty-something melee class, yet he was thinking of taking on a King Level BOSS; a smile spread across Song Jian's face.
The man had good combat power, but he was unaware of the girl's strangeness and strength; even Song Jian would be powerless against the girl now.
“To call it King Level is an understatement; the girl's strength has long surpassed the King Level…” Song Jian thought to himself: “With such a being, numerical advantage is nullified; no matter how many come, it won't be enough for her to slaughter.”
Of course, Song Jian would not share these thoughts with them, afraid to frighten them. These level sixty-something players, some of whom had hardly ever seen a Commanding Level BOSS, had no idea of the terror of a King Level BOSS.
Let alone the girl's strength that far exceeded a King Level, even a King Level BOSS at its peak could disregard the difference in numbers.
Song Jian shook his head and said, “To a King Level BOSS, a difference in numbers no longer poses a threat…”
“City Lord, is it even stronger than you?” Wang Qi could not help but ask.
Players, growing stronger, are becoming bolder; where they once feared to solo elite bosses of the same level, many now form teams to hunt bosses for plentiful spoils and to boost their own strength due to the slow pace of leveling.
During the previous battles, Song Jian's Thousand Swords Art left a profound impact on Wang Qi and others–the sight of the overwhelming Spirit Swords made onlookers feel deep despair rather than any desire to resist.
“Before her, I had absolutely no power to resist…” Song Jian shook his head, “That's why I've turned that area into a forbidden zone. To deal with her, your levels need to be at least a hundred, and you must pass the third-tier combat power assessment!”
In fact, even if all alliance players passed the third-tier combat power assessment, they would still be no match for that girl. But as their levels and strengths increased, they would realize the true extent of their opponent's power and would no longer entertain thoughts of besieging and hunting her.
After discussing this matter, Wang Qi started reporting to Song Jian on the various aspects of the City of Hope's reconstruction. Abyss monsters had breached the city, causing significant damage to many buildings; some needed only simple repairs, while others were nearly leveled and required reconstruction.
Moreover, during the war, those who fled the city automatically forfeited their properties in the City of Hope, as per the contract, which meant a large amount of assets returned to the alliance's control. These assets needed to be redistributed for maximum benefit.
These decisions had to be made by the city lord; without the City Lord seal, even allocated properties would not receive system protection, which made everyone uneasy.
After half a day, Song Jian leaned back in his chair, letting out a sigh of relief, feeling that the day had been more exhausting than grinding and fighting bosses.
Once all the higher-ups had left, Song Jian remained alone in the meeting room. Standing by the window, he overlooked everything in the City of Hope, feeling an unreal sensation.
Just then, Song Jian suddenly heard a distant dragon's roar. Looking up, he saw a dark speck rapidly approaching the City of Hope.
Soon, a giant Black Dragon about ten meters in length appeared in the skies above the City of Hope, slowly descending onto the square in front of the City Lord Mansion.
“Huh, the Black Dragon's level has risen so much?” Song Jian's eyes brightened. Previously, the Black Dragon was only over level sixty, and its size wasn't as massive as now. Somehow, the Black Dragon's level had reached eighty. Although it was still far from Gulu, the stone creature, the Black Dragon's size was now comparable.
“Why is this guy here all of a sudden when it's always guarding the Dragon Head Strange Tree?” Song Jian wondered as he stepped out onto the balcony of the City Lord Mansion and leaped forward, his steel wings unfolding behind him as he flew towards the square.
Approaching the Black Dragon, he stroked its lowered head, and a strange thought suddenly occurred to him.
“Have you come here to have me join you at the Dragon God Altar to receive the Dragon God's blessing, to gain the honor of the Dragon Clan and let you inherit the power of the Black Dragon Bloodline, achieving a promotion?” A puzzled expression crossed Song Jian's face.
