I have an Apocalypse City - Chapter 447

Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Level Ten Instance

Speaking of bat-winged zombies, Song Jian had encountered a large number of them on a rooftop of a high-rise building. These mature bat-winged zombies were all level 10 elite BOSS. However, the place wasn’t their nest, they were merely passing by.

“In another place, the theater, I defeated a sizable number of level 10 bat­winged zombie juveniles. That must be their nest. There might be a nest of mutated bats nearby. That would explain the huge presence of bat-winged zombie juveniles!” A glint appeared in Song Jian’s eye as he recalled the time when he hunted the juvenile bat-winged zombies.

Back then, wiping out those juvenile bat-winged zombies was extremely difficult for Song Jian at the time. But now, let alone normal level 10 monsters, even if he encountered a group of mature bat-winged elite BOSS zombies, he would be able to compete. He wouldn’t be like before, forced only to flee.

“That area is just a level 10 monster zone. I’ll search the surrounding areas first!” Song Jian decided in his heart.

When Song Jian returned to the theater, it was desolate without a single monster in sight. Judging by the traces, many players had thoroughly searched the place, even clearing the rubble piece by piece, hoping to find hidden items underneath.

“As expected, these juvenile bat-winged zombies are not monsters that can respawn endlessly.” Song Jian’s mouth turned up slightly at the corners.

Ordinary mutant zombies, no matter how many you kill, will respawn the next day in the game system, endlessly. Only unusual, story-related monsters wouldn’t reappear once killed.

This scene seemed to prove his guess; this group of bat-winged zombie juveniles must have appeared due to the radiation pollution of the mutated bats, becoming an existence similar to story-related monsters. Once exterminated, they would not respawn.

“The mutated bat nest I need to find now should not be far from this theater. It’s hard to imagine that a level 30 mutated bat would be in this level 10 monster zone!” Song Jian strolled along the silent street. The surrounding level 10 common monsters just glanced at Song Jian from afar and immediately turned to leave.

Even those mindless mutant zombies would instinctively stay away from Song Jian.

Song Jian came around two blocks with the theater as the center but found no clue of the mutated bat nest. However, he was not anxious. If the mutated bat nest were that easy to find, the players would have discovered it and spread the news.

After all, the appearance of a level 30 monster in a level 10 monster area would undoubtedly be explosive news for players.

Just then, Song Jian suddenly looked up at a building not far away. There came a strong wave of energy.

“Is there a battle there? Looks like a Fire Mage is fighting!” Song Jian murmured to himself.

Within a short time, a man in a black mage’s robe, holding a giant codex, rushed out of the building.

“Damn it, I was just looking for some supplies and came across a level 10 elite BOSS. What rotten luck…” Zhao Jun looked distressed, glanced back at the burly zombie BOSS, stuck in the narrow, falling unit exit. For the time being, it couldn’t get out, so it was violently destroying the walls around the block exit.

Chunks of bricks and concrete were flying about. In no time, a big hole appeared in the wall. The burly mutant zombie, nearly three meters high, rushed out of the building, bellowing.

“Damn, you should have been hired in real life to work in the demolition office!” Zhao Jun muttered, and his codex opened automatically with a rustling sound.

“jklasdkfk, dkalds…”

Zhao Jun chanted the spell, and a few seconds later, a red light flew out from the codex, landing in front of the zombie BOSS.

“FireWall Skill, rise!”

Bang-

A massive flame rose into the sky. There were roaring flames all around the zombie BOSS within three or four meters. The color of this flame was not red but black, similar to the Abyssal Raging Flame controlled by Song Jian. However, it didn’t bear the terrifying aura of the Abyssal Raging Flame.

Zhao Jun glanced at the Firewall behind him, smirked, and turned to run.

After running for a few steps, Zhao Jun saw a teenager standing dumbstruck on the street. Apparently, the commotion from his fight with the BOSS had attracted him.

Zhao Jun’s face changed, and he hurriedly waved at Song Jian and shouted, “Run, run! There’s a level 10 elite BOSS here.”

Zhao Jun was level 12. But to solo-kill a level 10 elite BOSS was difficult for him, especially given the large number of mutant zombies nearby. If the battle dragged on for too long, it would attract a large number of zombies. By then, even running would be too late.

Seeing that Song Jian remained motionless, Zhao Jun ran over, gripped Song Jian’s arm, and yelled, “Are you nuts? You’ve seen the elite BOSS and you still aren’t running, do you not value your life?”

“Hehe, can I ask if there is somewhere nearby that has bat-related monsters? I have a mission to hunt them!” Song Jian laughed.

Zhao Jun tugged at Song Jian’s arm a few times but couldn’t move him. However, since he was a mage and physical strength wasn’t his forte, he didn’t make much of it.

“Bats? There’s a level 10 instance in that building, ‘Bat Shadow Demon Traces,’ which has some level 10 mutated bats…” Zhao Jun hesitated, then casually mentioned. Suddenly his face turned white, and he yelled, “BOSS, a level 10 elite BOSS, for heaven’s sake, can’t you see it?”

As he was speaking, the burly zombie BOSS had already rushed out of the building and was pouncing toward Zhao Jun.

The robust zombie BOSS, its body shimmering with a black metallic luster, had a body as tough as iron or steel. Even when it was within the Firewall, the most it could take was single-digit damage.

“A level 10 instance, Bat Shadow Demon Traces, huh? I see.” Song Jian stood there as if deep in thought, seemingly not paying attention to the BOSS charging at him.

Zhao Jun saw Song Jian’s nonchalance and made a run for it.

“Sorry, but I’m not willing to risk my life here…” Zhao Jun thought to himself.

Just as he had run a few dozen steps forward, he suddenly heard a shrill screaming of a mutant zombie from behind. Zhao Jun shivered and turned around to take a look without much thinking.

The towering zombie BOSS was now lying on the ground, its vitality points depleted. The man who had been standing still was now holding a sword and standing in front of the BOSS.

Zhao Jun was stupefied, his mouth agape, looking utterly incredulous.

“How is this possible? He… He actually killed the BOSS…”
