I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 568 - : Epic Profession

Chapter 568: Chapter 568: Epic Profession

Ever since stepping into this game, human nature’s ugliness had been amplified indefinitely. Those who kill for a piece of equipment or a Skill Book were rampant. One needed to understand that death in the game also meant death in the real world. Therefore, there was no difference between killing in the game and killing in reality. The only difference was that there were no laws in the game to restrict players.

Having been in the game for so long, Song Jian had become wary of everything and everyone and would not easily trust others.

Along the way, Song Jian and Caisy chatted happily, but most of the time, it was Song Jian probing Caisy for information. Through her words, Song Jian learned a lot about the City of Sin.

As they moved forward, nearing the city gate, a sound of iron hooves suddenly echoed from afar. A team of soldiers in heavy armor, wielding sharp spears, swiftly charged out of the city gate.

All the people, including players, scurried to hide on the sides of the road;

“Who are they?” Song Jian asked in a low voice.

“These are the City Lord Mansion’s guards. It is said that the Lord of the City of Sin has fallen seriously ill which has caused some unrest within the city. You need to be very cautious when you enter the City of Sin.” Caisy reminded quietly.

Song Jian nodded, he had previously suspected that Anna’s aim of getting the Goblet of Life was to save the life of the Lord of the City of Sin. Looks like he was right about his guess.

Upon entering the City of Sin, Song Jian bid farewell to Caisy and, as per the address given by Anna, proceeded to meet her for task submission.

At this moment, Anna sat in her room, her face full of despair.

“I’m so useless, I couldn’t help at all!” Anna shook her head: “Uncle’s illness is getting worse, if we don’t find a solution, I fear he might…”

A female warrior in plate mail consoled her, “Miss, you mustn’t think like that. Remember how you almost got into trouble before when you dared to accompany Master Solando to the Dark Castle; were you planning to steal the Goblet of Life from the hands of the Shadow Giant Dragon?”

“Yes, Kalen, that’s exactly what we planned!” Anna said with determination: “As long as I can get the Goblet of Life and save my uncle’s life, even if it costs me my life, I won’t feel any regret!”

“Miss, it’s not about regretting or not. The problem is, by taking Master Solando on a risky adventure, you both almost never returned. The Lord is already in this condition, have you ever thought about what would happen if Master Solando got killed in the Dark Castle?” Kalen advised with genuine concern. “Haven’t you noticed, since you two have come back, the attitude of many people towards you has subtly changed?”

“I’ve never thought about these things, I just want to cure my uncle’s illness!” Anna said, hanging her head.

Just then, a servant walked in, bowed to Anna, and said, “Miss, a God’s Chosen is looking for you. He says he completed your task and has come to submit it.”

“A God’s Chosen?” Anna looked puzzled and mumbled to herself, “I don’t know any God’s Chosen. Also, what task submission is he talking about?”

After leaving the Shadowfang Mountain Range, Anna had completely forgotten about Song Jian. In her eyes, Song Jian, being a mere level 27 God’s Chosen, simply lacked the strength to steal the Goblet of Life from the Dark Castle;

It’s known that when she had gone with Solando earlier, they had brought an entire team of thirty-level guards, who totaled twenty in number. Yet in the end, only she, Solando, and Solando’s guard Carter returned to the City of Sin alive;

“Miss, do you want me to drive him away?” The servant, seeing Anna’s furrowed brow and the obvious rejection in her eyes, asked quietly.

“Wait, let me think…” Anna waved her hands and said.

It took quite a while for Anna to slowly recall the God’s Chosen who had saved them from the Shadow Teeth in the Shadowfang Mountain Range.

“Song Jian, is his name Song Jian!” Anna suddenly leaped from her chair, her face glowing with surprise.

“Is he here to submit the task? Could it be that he really stole the Goblet of Life from the Shadow Giant Dragon?” At this thought, Anna immediately got excited and quickly rushed out of the room;

“It must be Song Jian!” Anna mumbled to herself, her eyes full of anticipation.

As she rushed out of the room, Anna saw a man standing in the courtyard. On a closer look, if this man was not Song Jian, who else could it be?

“Song Jian, did you really… you really completed the task I entrusted to you?” Anna shouted upon seeing Song Jian.

There were many people around, and Anna didn’t want the others to know about her acquiring the Goblet of Life, so she did not ask directly.

“Yes, Miss Anna, as expected, I have brought that object back for you.” Song Jian responded with a smile.

“Quick, come in and rest, you must be exhausted!” Anna immediately walked over, took Song Jian’s hand, and led him into her room.

“Kalen, please stand guard outside the door and ensure that no one disturbs us.” Anna instructed Kalen.

Kalen was originally Anna’s guard. She immediately saluted Anna and shut down the main door.

“Did you, did you really bring it?” Anna asked excitedly.

“Mission accomplished!” Song Jian said smilingly, taking out the Goblet of Life from his bag;

Upon seeing the Goblet of Life, Anna paused for a moment, looked up at Song Jian with bewilderment and said, “This is what the Goblet of Life looks like?”

The Goblet of Life looked like a simple wooden cup. If Song Jian hadn’t said it was the Goblet of Life, Anna would probably not even give it a second glance.

“This is the Goblet of Life that I found in the Treasure Vault of the Dark Castle!” Song Jian handed the Goblet of Life to Anna.

The Goblet of Life had the ability to transform ordinary water into holy water which could prolong life span and cure all diseases. But in Song Jian’s hands, it was just displayed as a “Task Item”.

Anna hesitantly took the Goblet of Life. The moment her hands touched it, a gentle energy radiated from the Goblet, seeping into her body.

In an instant, a strong white light burst from Anna’s body, illuminating the whole room;
