Chapter 529: Chapter 305 - Birth of the City of Dawn_2

"Aren’t there still people inside? Use their Magic Power, any amount will do. How could you know you’d lose if you haven’t even fought?" Jack continued to roar furiously.

"The gap is too wide. There’s no hope..." the Son of Heaven shook his head and sighed.

"What kind of bullshit are you spouting? Your men and my subordinates are still fighting in blood and sweat, and you’re the first to give up. Doesn’t that make our sacrifices a joke?" Jack was enraged.

"From the beginning, it’s been a joke..." the only response from the Son of Heaven was a bitter smile.

His guild, from top to bottom, had devotedly prepared for more than a month, thought of all possible plans, and used all possible methods. Still, they lost to others. They didn’t lose because of any strategy or plan but because of the overwhelming power difference. He had nothing to say but to admit defeat willingly.

As for his teammates, there were no grounds for reproach. He was given the opportunity of a one-on-one fight. It was he who failed to seize it.

Precisely, the outcome had been determined the moment the rivals stormed into the Oracle.

If he had thought of it earlier and stopped them in their tracks...

If they hadn’t agreed to meet at the Underwater Prison...

If they had staged a do-or-die battle with their collective team power at entrance one...

If they had taken their defense at Skeleton Island more seriously...

...

There were so many ifs.

But now, it was too late for any of them.

"You..."

Jack stared at the Son of Heaven in disbelief, momentarily forgetting his anger.

Was this the Son of Heaven he knew?

Was this extremely proud, confident and calm person battered to this extent... What had he gone through during the short time he was in that barrier?

As they were talking, time was quietly passing.

Soon, the last seconds ticked away, and it was exactly four o’clock.

The moment four o’clock arrived, the barrier around the Altar disappeared. A palm-sized colored Crystal Stone floated up at the top of the stone altar. It hovered about half a meter above the platform like a feather, swaying up and down.

At this moment, all the fighting in the city had stopped. Jack, the Son of Heaven, and the others on the edge of the square all looked towards the altar.

They finally saw the Legacy Crystal spoken of in legends. It was incomparably beautiful, resembling a divine creation. For the fools, it had an especially appealing draw, making people instinctively want to touch it.

But whatever they said now, it was too late. The surrounding pathways had already been completely sealed off by octopuses.

Another charge?

Everyone knew that there was no chance.

All they could do now was watch as the Ghost Captain ascended the last step and reached out to touch the crystal.

All disputes were settled at that moment!

The instant Mu You’s finger touched the crystal, it disappeared, integrating into his body. An icy sensation was transmitted.

An invisible burst of vitality emanated from the altar and spread outwards, quickly sweeping across the entire city.

The once silent city seemed to be revived. All things began to come back to life, and the plants began to rejuvenate.

Buds began to quietly emerge from the ground, walls, cracks between stones, and dead trees in the desolate and dry streets.

The buds were tiny and seemingly fragile, but they took over the entire city in terrifying numbers.

The city, once covered in gray, had turned lush green in the blink of an eye.

Everyone watched in surprise as all things in front of them were revived.

But Mu You, who had merged with the Legacy Crystal, saw more.

The once thriving Dawn City was displayed before his eyes like an illusion.

The bustling city, tightly packed buildings, energetic residents, joyous streets... If he looked up, a clear blue sky was above him. White clouds were drifting through the city, as if he could just reach out and touch them.

Various flying mounts hovered in the sky. The Sky Security Army, responsible for guarding the city, and the war buildings scattered around the city were all protecting the safety of Sky City...

Mu You seemed to have obtained a god’s perspective and could see everything in the city.

Meanwhile, all online players on Earth and in the Star Spirit World simultaneously received a notification.

[The City of Dawn has been successfully activated!]

[First City Lord: Ghost Captain.]

[All Fools can apply to join any Sky City. Upon approval, they will receive official resident status. (Each player can only join one Sky City at a time)]

[Current resident limit of the City of Dawn: 10 million.]

Within a minute of the announcement, the world was in an uproar!

It was two in the morning in the Celestial Dynasty, a time when most people were resting. But this didn’t affect the speed at which the explosive news was spreading.

Many people had predicted that today was likely to be the day the first Sky City would appear. There was even information about the opening of the entrance to Dawn City on the forums the night before. Many people stayed up all night just to wait for the result.

And now, they waited as they wished.

The domestic forum section, which had been somewhat quiet, exploded in an instant.

"Congratulations to Ghost Captain for activating Dawn City and becoming the first City Lord!" This was the most eye-catching post on the forum’s home page.

The poster was ’Tail of Leo’, a rather active ID on the forum recently. The post was filled with thousands of words of praise for Ghost Captain, while not forgetting to put down Jun authority Divine Teachings and Son of Heaven.

Nobody really read the content of the post, after all, the whole thing was gibberish and uninformative.
