“Light Strike, Level 1, Skill Effect: Performs a Holy attribute attack on targets within to meters range, dealing (500 150% * self damage) Holy damage and an additional 200% damage to Shadow attribute creatures. The skill is instant and has a cooldown of 5 minutes; Skill consumption: 10 Spirit Points, equipment requirement: Sword-type weapon.”

Light Strike is a simple and powerful skill that deals high damage within a 10-meter range, which is already considered a semi-long-range attack. With Song Jian’s current damage, a single attack can deal more than 650 points of damage an amount that none of his other skills, even if all his Sword Silk attacks were concentrated on a single target, could reach.

Furthermore, if the target is a creature with the Shadow attribute, such as the Abyssal Demons encountered before, then the damage dealt would exceed 1,200 points. Even ordinary Shadow attribute creatures could be killed in one hit, making Light Strike a very straightforward skill. The only drawback is its 5-minute cooldown time, making it slow to increase proficiency.

However, Song Jian wouldn’t consider these drawbacks right now, as he hasn’t truly obtained the skill. He must complete the mission before he can officially acquire Light Strike.

After receiving the Light Strike skill, Song Jian became enthusiastic about the task. The priest, Cecilia, didn’t find this weird, as in her impression, the God’s chosen ones were always chasing benefits.

“Take this letter and find Annie from Silver Moon Commerce. She has a way to get you into the Blood Demon Cave. Once you’re there, you must be careful If you die inside the cave, your body will be parasitized by the demonic creatures inside, and your soul will be trapped there forever!” Cecilia Priest handed Song Jian a letter with a serious expression.

Song Jian nodded, sensing that the mission might not be as easy as he thought. After taking the letter, he placed it into his inventory.

Cecilia Priest began chanting spells as her golden Codex flipped through its pages without wind. Once it stopped, a golden glowing Teleportation Gate appeared in front of Song Jian.

“You only have thirty seconds to enter the Teleportation Gate. Hurry up; this type of Space-Breaking Array consumes a lot of my energy!” Cecilia Priest’s face showed a hint of exhaustion.

Song Jian didn’t hesitate and stepped into the Teleportation Gate, disappearing from sight.

After Song Jian vanished, the Teleportation Gate disintegrated. Cecilia Priest looked at the traces of the Gate left on the floor and sighed deeply.

A severe dizziness forced Song Jian to close his eyes, feeling as if he were falling into a bottomless abyss. Even the furious roars and howls of monsters reached his ears, making him tremble with fear unsure whether it was an illusion or reality.

Soon, Song Jian felt solid ground under his feet. As he stumbled forward and opened his eyes, he found himself already in a new city, standing right in front of the city’s central Transmission Array.

A short Goblin waved its arms and shouted at Song Jian, “Don’t stand in front of the Transmission Array! Hurry up and leave the area marked by the yellow line!”

Song Jian looked down and saw an obvious yellow circle with a diameter of about three meters surrounding the Transmission Array.

With a faint smile, Song Jian stepped away from the Transmission Array. The Goblin guarding the Array muttered under his breath, “Country bumpkin!” as it shifted its attention elsewhere.

System: You have discovered a new city, City of Hymns (Level 4), and gained 3000 experience points.

“City of Hymns? Sounds similar to the City of Holy Light!” thought Song Jian. The architecture of the city resembled medieval European style, and so did the people’s clothing. He occasionally saw mercenaries clad in armor and wielding weapons passing by him.

“There are players here too?” Song Jian, in disbelief, saw three players with obvious foreign features coming out of a tavern, loudly discussing a concert by a celebrity from the real world. The surrounding people seemed indifferent to their loud chatter, quickly avoiding them.

“It seems there are more players in this game than I thought,” Song Jian felt a heavy weight on his chest.

Such a large number of people entering the game and gaining extraordinary powers would definitely impact the real world. Song Jian initially thought this impact would be limited to Coastal City, but it turned out that it encompassed the entire world.

“The entire world is beginning to change,” Song Jian whispered to himself.

Just then, a carriage stopped in front of Song Jian. A man in his fifties or sixties sat in the driver’s seat, sat up straight, and politely asked Song Jian, “Sir, do you need carriage service? I can take you anywhere in the City of Hymns!” “Do you know how to get to Silver Moon Commerce?” Song Jian asked with a smile. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

“Of course! Silver Moon Commerce is the largest commerce company in the City of Hymns! Their residence is in District C, about five kilometers away. It takes about 20 minutes by carriage.” The old man said proudly, “I grew up in the City of Hymns, and I know every road here like the back of my hand. I will get you to your destination as quickly as possible.”

“Alright, take me to Silver Moon Commerce. How much does it cost?” Song Jian climbed into the carriage.

“Just three Doomsday Coins, distinguished sir!” The old man seemed pleased to

have gained a customer, smiling brightly.

Let s go,” Song Jian nodded and closed the carriage door.

The carriage sped along the wide streets. Looking out of the window, Song Jian saw many players rushing through the city. Most were between levels 10 and 15, similar to those in Doomsday City.

However, players who entered this city were obviously luckier than those who entered Doomsday City. Here, there were no monsters, and they didn’t have to experience the dreadful phase of having their lives on the line when they first entered the game.

Twenty minutes later, the carriage stopped in front of a shop – the quarters of

Silver Moon Commerce.

Silver Moon Commerce’s shop was very luxurious, occupying the best location on the entire street. It had five floors and was one of the tallest buildings in the city.

Standing at the entrance of the shop, Song Jian saw many players coming in and out, purchasing large quantities of items. Several attendants stood at the door, welcoming every visitor warmly.

As Song Jian walked towards the shop, he unexpectedly received a joyous system notification;

System: Congratulations to the Hammer of Thor Alliance for being the first team to clear the hard mode of the “Bloody Sewers” dungeon. All players in the team receive 10,000 experience points and 500 Doomsday Coins.

“A hard mode dungeon?” Song Jian was shocked, not expecting that the strength of players in this city was still underestimated. They could even clear hard mode dungeons while, in Doomsday City, none of the teams could even clear the normal mode dungeons most accomplished only the easy mode dungeons.

”1 have to speed up my progress,” Song Jian thought.
