Chapter 735: Chapter 735: Early Preparation
âOur goal is to become True God, but weâre not gods yet, so we must have a clear understanding of ourselves!â A handsome man wearing leather armor and carrying a giant longbow stood up and said, âOur current strength is indeed inferior to that of the City of Hope. Thatâs a fact!â
âThe God of Hunting is right!â Zeus roared, âThatâs the truth! Weâre constantly failing because our strength is weak!â
The other core members fell silent, their heads slightly lowered, some of them disheartened;
Zeus glanced around and a sneer flashed across his lips;
âBeing weak now doesnât mean weâll always be weak!â Zeus said, âNow is a perfect opportunity. If the City of Hope fails in building their city, they will be ruined, and from then on, the Doomsday City will only hold us and the Pantheon in high esteem!â
Zeusâs words slightly boosted everyoneâs confidence.
â From what weâve learned, the city-building mission is indeed challenging, butâ¦â A short, near-transparent man hesitated, âBut what can we do to make their city-building mission fail?â
âItâs simple, weâll borrow power!â Zeus slowly walked toward the short man, a smile on his face, and said to him, âGod of Thieves, I need you to stay in the City of Hopeâs territory 24 hours a day starting today, gathering information! Youâre invisible to other players, and I need you to find out everything about the city-building mission from them! Whatâs the specific content of the mission, how far along are they, what plans do they have, and so on, every single detail!â
God of Thieves nodded, as it was not a complicated task for him. He had already gained a heightened stealth skill from a mission and upgraded it to the max level, which resulted in a mutation, giving him incredible concealment effects. Almost no one could detect him as long as he didnât reveal himself;
Moreover, there were very few methods available to counter a thiefâs Stealth skill now, and all detection skills had short durations and long cooldown times. Ordinary players wouldnât use them carelessly in their free time.
Also, the God of Thieves had infiltrated the City of Hope Allianceâs territory more than once without being discovered. This time, he would just have to stay a bit longer;
âLeaderâ¦â The God of Thieves began to speak.
âCall me God King!â Zeus yelled;
God of Thieves shuddered and quickly corrected himself, âGod King, God King⦠â
âWhatâs the matter?â Zeus asked with a cold snort.
âI⦠I uncovered some information earlier that the City of Hope Allianceâs city-building mission seems to have several stages with the last being a monster siege. A large number of monsters will attack the city theyâve builtâ¦â God of Thieves said.
âHumph, I already knew that. Everything theyâre doing now is in preparation for the final monster siege!â Zeusâs mouth was adorned with a sinister grin as he said, âSo when I say weâll borrow power, it means using the strength of these monsters to completely destroy the City of Hope. At that time, with a little push from us, we will not only destroy the City of Hope Alliance at minimal cost, but also plunder a massive amount of resources from them!â
Ever since the City of Hope Alliance obtained all the resources in the Valley of the Undead, their strength had greatly increased, and various buildings were being developed continuously.
Players who had been to the Valley of the Undead had previously showcased resources they had obtained, making others envious and drooling. However, only a small portion of the Valleyâs resources circulated among Doomsday Cityâs players, with the majority being transported through the City of Hope Allianceâs Transmission Array to the City of Sin and City of Hymns to be sold at a better price;
This had led many Doomsday City players to covet the resources obtained by the City of Hope Alliance;
Meanwhile, Song Jian continued to farm BOSSes in the resort, at first worried that players from the Pantheon would come and mess with him, but later, seeing no one coming, he began to lure two or three BOSSes at a time to kill. The first two forms of the Ten Thousand Facets Sword Technique were AoE abilities, so the more monsters, the better the effect. Although the effects on BOSSes werenât as good as with the beetles, they didnât decrease his efficiency in killing them, and soon Song Jian had to go back to clean up his inventory again.
Time flew, and the City of Hope had begun constructing its second Magic Crystal Railgun. Song Jian had finally finished his tedious days of farming materials and returned to the City of Hope Alliance to set up sword formations in various places.
Exploration Sword Formation, Attack Sword Formation, Defense Sword Formation, each sword formation used dozens, even hundreds of Sword Stones. Song Jian ingeniously linked all the sword formations together so that when they were activated, they could coordinate with each other. Although the effect couldnât reach that of the Qingyun Sword Array, monsters from events like the creation of safehouses couldnât even reach the walls of the City of Hope.
Song Jian knew that the scale of the final monster siege in this city-building mission would definitely be more significant than the previous safehouse event. Previously, only monsters from the surroundings were attracted, but this time, monsters from outside Doomsday City might appear!
âBoss, the Magic Crystal Railgun at the north gate is complete,â Wang Qi approached Song Jian and asked. âDo you want to check it out?â
âItâs already built?â Song Jianâs face showed a satisfied smile. The Magic Crystal Railgun was a powerful weapon, just one of which would mean heâd no longer need to worry about monsters above Lord-level appearing in the north direction.
âLetâs go take a look!â Song Jian laughed.
The pair quickly arrived at the north wall of the Allianceâs territory. Standing on the five or six-meter-high wall, they looked out at the vast area still belonging to the City of Hope Alliance. However, due to the limited number of players, they couldnât protect the entire territory, so they had to abandon it.
But on this piece of land, countless types of traps and mechanisms were laid out, and powerful landmines were buried. Even Song Jian himself wasnât confident that he could make it out of the area;
âIs this the Magic Crystal Railgun?â Song Jian looked at a massive fortress on the north wall, about as tall as a six-story building, and exclaimed!
âYes, this is the Magic Crystal Railgun, and itâs extremely powerful!â Wang Qi excitedly said, âBoss, take a look at the gorge in front of us. Itâs the result of our test shot after construction was completed. With just one shot, a 33-story building was turned into ruinsâ¦â
