I have an Apocalypse City - Chapter 1388

Chapter 1388: Chapter 1390: The Golden Giant Chapter 1388: Chapter 1390: The Golden Giant In the tomb chamber, hundreds of fist-sized stones rolled around. Some even made their way directly to the feet of King Smolahan and were crushed into powder by a stomp of his foot.

This was a passive skill of the stone golem Gulu. When the damage it received exceeded a certain threshold, it would split apart, turning into countless fragments to distribute the damage.

This skill not only reduced the damage by 20%, but as long as the core rock bearing the core was not destroyed, Gulu would not die even if all other fragments were obliterated.

All the fragments scattered throughout the tomb chamber, and the moment they touched the golden jewels in the chamber, all at once, began to devour and merge with the surrounding gold.

King Smolahan could feel the speed at which the golden treasures disappeared seemed to have accelerated significantly, the rate of absorption by the now fragmented Gulu was several times faster than before.

Even Doya and Noya were staring dumbfounded. Just as they had bent down ready to pick up a piece of gold, it was as if the piece had grown legs and rolled toward the nearest stone, then slowly became part of it.

Each stone had devoured several times its own volume of golden jewels, yet the size of the rocks had not increased in the slightest, merely changing from the original granite color to a golden hue.

Soon, the tomb chamber was filled with hundreds of golden spheres, and the previously abundant golden treasures were now scarce, with only a few pieces remaining in the corners!

Although the golden treasures in the tomb chamber were of no use to King Smolahan, they had accompanied him for tens of thousands of years. Plus, the stack of gold was enough to rival a nation’s wealth. For King Smolahan, these golden treasures were the only things that reminded him of his once mighty empire, and now even these last memories were being stolen by these people!

Gulu gulu~
Countless fist-sized golden spheres began to converge toward the center. Shortly after, a golden giant nearly five meters tall appeared before everyone.

“Eh, Gulu’s height has shrunk quite a bit. Could it be that it ate too much and has indigestion?” Song Jian speculated oddly as he looked at the golden giant before him.

In fact, Gulu’s body material had completely transformed by then, its strength alone being more than tenfold greater than when it was a stone elemental. Back then, it was merely stone, but now, it was metal, although the proportion of gold was still too high to reach the strength and toughness of an alloy.

However, transforming from a stone elemental into a metal elemental was an enormous leap, akin to Black Dragon Kamata having devoured a controllable mutation serum.

“You all shall die. I shall display your bodies as trophies in my tomb chamber, and your souls will forever be tormented by the eroding chill and demonic mists, wailing in eternal agony!” King Smolahan was about to go mad with rage. He let out a roar, and with a wave of his right hand, the enchanted trident that had fallen due to Gulu’s disintegration returned to his grasp.

With a swing of the battle halberd, a mysterious force surged toward the tomb chamber door.

Boom boom boom~
The door let out a thunderous boom and shook violently. Normally, the bronze doors of the tomb chamber should have fully closed by now, cutting off any intruders’ escape route.

But since Song Jian had flung open the bronze doors completely, triggering the mechanism, the doors could no longer close, which, by a stroke of luck, had left them an escape route.

Seeing the doors wouldn’t shut, King Smolahan intensified his efforts. Veins bulged on the hand clutching the battle halberd, and a rich undead aura emerged, writhing and extending like tentacles.

However, even King Smolahan exerted all his strength, he couldn’t close the bronze gate, only causing it to tremble violently.

Song Jian and his group initially didn’t understand what King Smolahan was trying to do, but after a while, they seemed to have realized.

“Attack, it wants to close the gate, cutting off our retreat!” Doya’s face showed a look of fear as she shouted loudly, holding a magic staff, and released a string of arcane missiles at King Smolahan.

Noya also began to chant spells hastily, and in no time, he had summoned a Gatling gun that was taller than a man and placed it in front of him.

This Gatling gun, due to some mysterious power, needed no ammunition to load. Every three seconds, it would fire five bullets at the target, and it also came with the skill “Rapid Fire”, which could be activated to shoot continuously for ten seconds. However, after that, it would need a cooldown period of thirty seconds, where it could only fire one bullet per second.

Song Jian looked in surprise at Noya and his Gatling gun, thinking to himself, “This guy actually has a hidden profession, War Master, a profession I’ve only heard of but never seen before…”

Because it was the first time he had seen such a profession, Song Jian couldn’t help but take a few more looks at Noya, seeing that after summoning one Gatling gun, he didn’t stop there; he continued to recite spells, and in no time, Noya had successively summoned three Gatling guns, placed in a triangular formation in front of him.

The barrels of the three Gatling guns never stopped spewing flames. Each attack didn’t deal high damage to King Smolahan, but as long as the Gatling guns weren’t destroyed, the cumulative damage was quite substantial!

“This skill is very suitable for siege warfare, but he is still playing it too safe. At the very least, the placement of the Gatling guns should not be directly in front of him!” Song Jian thought to himself.

However, he also understood Noya’s thinking: having low defensive attributes, having these three Gatling guns in front of him could at least offer some protection. In times of danger, he could even sacrifice them to save his life!

King Smolahan, when attacked, let out a low growl, giving up on continuing to close the bronze gate and instead plunged his battle halberd fiercely into the ground!

A loud “boom” resonated as a burst of energy spread from the tail of the halberd, forming a semi-transparent protective shield that blocked all attacks.

“Awaken, my soldiers, and kill the invaders that have entered here!” King Smolahan let out a low growl, and his cape fluttered as he leaped up into the air as if flying, hovering in mid-air.

Crack, crack~
Wuuuuu~
One after another, undead soldiers emerged from the surrounding walls and floor, while the cold wind that swept across the mid-air coalesced into ghost soldiers that landed in the tomb chamber.

In a short period, sixty to seventy level 100 elite-level boss warriors appeared before everyone!

“Level 100, elite-level bosses, so many of them, my God, I finally understand how those Alien Clan examinees failed!” Doya cried out in astonishment, her face showing a fearful expression as she took several steps backward in succession!
