I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1654

Chapter 1654: Chapter 1655: Constructing a Magic Array Chapter 1654: Chapter 1655: Constructing a Magic Array The Blazing Fire Furnace can condense the divinity contained in the corpses of divine beings. As long as Song Jian kills a divine creature, be it at the Demi-God Level or a God-level, he can obtain a large amount of divinity.

Using divinity, one can not only improve the quality of equipment, but also promote skills that meet the requirements to God-level abilities. In the future, if Song Jian masters the method of using divinity to condense divine power, then he will be able to acquire a great amount of divine power.

However, Song Jian has never used the Blazing Fire Furnace to smelt creatures of the Legendary Realm since Legendary Realm bosses lack divinity. Once they enter the Blazing Fire Furnace, they'll only be melted into slag.

But the corpse of this man-eating ray before him, Song Jian always felt there was something unusual about it. If he smelted it, he might obtain unexpected gains!

With that thought, Song Jian directly placed the man-eating ray's corpse into the Blazing Fire Furnace. Soon, the fierce furnace fire roared, ceaselessly roasting the man-eating ray, and after a moment, the corpse of the beast was reduced to a pile of ash.

“Nothing at all?” Song Jian shook his head, ready to shut down the Blazing Fire Furnace, when suddenly a blue light burst forth from the ashes of the man-eating ray's corpse.

Surprised and pleased, Song Jian eyed the light, and with a wave of his right hand, he captured the blue light in his palm and observed it closely. This blue light, astonishingly, was an item endowed with attributes.

“Attribute Orb, blue quality, usage: when used on an item, it has a certain chance to bestow the 'take out of game' attribute;”
Song Jian had also obtained Attribute Orbs in the game, but those he acquired mostly added some personal attributes and weren't much different from Attribute Fruits. He never expected that the Attribute Orb smelted from the man-eating ray's corpse today would possess such a unique attribute.

“There are no restrictions on the quality of the item?” Song Jian said, his eyes betraying his surprise. To know that the current Attribute Orb was only of blue quality, but in theory, it could affect items of Epic, Legendary, and even Divine nature, granting them the “take out of game” attribute.

To know, even being able to take an item with Silver or Gold attributes out of the game now is an incredible feat. If one really extracts an Epic or even Legendary Quality item, it would definitely cause a huge sensation in the real world!

“There's a certain chance, haha, I'm afraid the higher the quality of the item, the smaller the chance. Since this Attribute Orb is blue, then it definitely has the greatest probability on items of blue quality or lower. Silver and Gold will have much smaller chances, and as for Epic and Legendary Quality, it probably truly depends on luck!” Song Jian laughed.

However, even so, such a blue-quality Attribute Orb is far more valuable than a piece of Silver or Gold equipment. If the gamble pays off, its value might be comparable to Epic or even Legendary Quality Equipment.

For Song Jian, this was also an unexpected windfall, and he pocketed the blue-quality Attribute Orb.

The game update lasted for twelve hours. It wasn't until the next day that Song Jian found the game icon on his phone had turned from gray back to color.

As he entered the game, Song Jian discovered that Wang Qi and others had entered the game even earlier than he had.

Seeing Song Jian, Wang Qi and the others hurriedly gathered around.

“Lord Mayor, the city defense Magic Array can now be built!”

“So soon? Are all the materials ready, are the Master Level construction mages all present?” Song Jian asked in surprise.

To know, “The Shelter of the Ocean God” Magic Array isn't just needing a core of a God-level ocean creature. That's merely the heart of the Magic Array. To construct the Magic Array, a multitude of other materials are needed, not only requiring a large quantity but also a wide variety. Song Jian estimated that at least a month or two of collecting would be needed to gather all the materials.

Unexpectedly, it had only been a few days, and they were already able to start constructing the defense Magic Array, which was beyond Song Jian's expectation.

“Heh, if the city lord is this efficient, we can't lag too far behind either!” Wang Qi and the other administrators chuckled. These days, the administrators of the City of Hope had been busy around the clock, managing to gather all the materials and manpower needed in just a few short days!

Soon, all the materials were ready, and more than ten mages with master-level qualifications in architecture began constructing the core of the magic array layer by layer.

It took almost half a day to fully construct the main body of the magic array.

“City lord, the magic array can be activated now!” Wang Qi said excitedly.

For a fifth-tier city to have its own legendary-level defensive magic array was definitely an event that could be recorded in the annals of the city's history!

Boom~
A rumbling sound arose, and the entire city began to tremble slightly, as if an earthquake had occurred. Countless people started to cry out in alarm, rushing into the streets. Moments later, a faint Dark Gold light screen slowly rose from the center of the city.

“Energy flow in Sector Three is stable; nodes are being lit up in sequence…”

“Everything is normal in Sector Two…”

“There's a slight fluctuation in the energy of Sector Eight but it's within the normal range; monitoring closely…”

The people of the City of Hope were on edge. It was not certain that a defense magic array could be successfully constructed. A failure in construction would not only mean the waste of a huge amount of precious materials but could also deal a devastating blow to the City of Hope, affecting the vital interests of everyone involved.

The Dark Gold light screen did not rise quickly, and occasionally, light screens in some areas would show obvious flickering, but these anomalies were quickly eliminated.

After a tense quarter of an hour, under the anxious gaze of all the onlookers, the Dark Gold light screen finally rose completely and shaped itself successfully.

“We did it, we did it!” Wang Qi roared with excitement. Although the dozens of simulations before had shown no problems, when it was truly successful in that moment, Wang Qi was extremely excited.

Song Jian also let out a sigh of relief. He could clearly sense that the strength of the Dark Gold light screen that now enveloped the entire City of Hope was worlds apart from the previous simple defense array. Even for a Demi-God level peak powerhouse like himself, breaking through would at least require the time it took to drink a cup of tea.

As for other Legendary Realm powerhouses, without spending one or two hours to deplete the energy of the defense magic array, it would be impossible to breach this great defensive array!

“This is just the beginning?” said a young man in a purple robe, holding a short one-handed staff, glancing at Wang Qi with a sneer, “The magic array is divided into three stages: screen shaping, trait activation, and finally, the most important phase of becoming sentient…”

“This is just the first stage of success?” Wang Qi stared, dumbfounded, at the young man beside him.

“Look, the second stage is about to begin. This stage determines the magic array's special effects. Although they are random, they are greatly related to the core. Our core attribute is decent, so there's a high chance of obtaining a strong trait!” the young man confidently proclaimed.
