Chapter 705: Chapter 368 Protect Our City!_1

Around midnight in the Cook Islands, all residents of Dawn City received a city-wide message.

[City-wide task: Defeat the God of Shadows and protect Sky City!]

[Task Description: A mysterious deity has descended, aiming to destroy our Sky City which we depend on for our survival. The defense of Sky City is everyone’s responsibility, so it’s time to pick up your weapons, repel the invaders and protect our city!

The God of Shadows is currently constrained and temporarily immobilized, but it will regain mobility in two hours. The difficulty of defeating it will increase a hundredfold, so we only have two hours for our strategy. Everyone, act quickly - time waits for no one!

Below is the known information about the enemy (continuously updated...)]

God of Shadows, Level 33, HP: 370 billion, Abilities: God’s Devouring, God’s Defense, specific effects as follows...]

[Effective strategies:

1. Due to the effects of ’God’s Devouring’ and ’God’s Defense,’ all players should use high-power one-off attacks as much as possible rather than multi-stage attacks. Also, ensure at least ten seconds between each attack.

2. God of Shadows’ magic defense is zero, but it has a slightly physical resistance and a high resistance to abnormal states. Restriction type magic is entirely ineffective against it. Its high level brings multiple level suppression which will significantly reduce our attack value. According to the current test, normal players of levels 1-10 can only cause 1%-3% of damage depending on their attack methods, intermediate players of level 10-15 damages range 2%-6%, and advanced players of level 15-20 damages range 4%-12%, and so on...

Besides, light magic can cause extra damage to the God of Shadows. Players who have light magic should attack with it as much as possible.

3. The Octopus King is our combat partner who is constantly restraining the God of Shadows, creating a safe environment for us. However, the main body of the Octopus King can’t leave the water surface for a long time, otherwise, its strength will quickly decrease and might relieve the God of Shadows from the binding. Once the God of Shadows regain mobility, each attack will cause heavy casualties. Therefore, players with water magic and recovery magic should produce as much water as possible, pour it on the Octopus King, and help it recover its strength.

[Task Reward: Attack the God of Shadows, when causing effective damage, you will receive a high amount of actual experience, permanent HP, and many awards including a special title. According to the damage done, gain Fool’s prestige in a ratio of 10:1 with an upper limit of 5000 points).

After defeating the God of Shadows, the top hundred contributors will receive additional prestige rewards, and the opportunity for high-ranking positions.

It is currently late at night in the Celestial Dynasty, yet most people are not asleep because tonight’s events have disrupted many people’s perceptions.

A few minutes ago, in-game prompts indicated that Dawn City was facing the crisis of annihilation. All players who had joined Dawn City received options to defend the city or flee. Some who identified as residents of Dawn City had left messages on the forum, saying they hadn’t even seen the enemy when an ’unknown entity’ killed them instantly, which caused panic.

This made most people aware that Dawn City might really be in a crisis and may face the danger of annihilation if not handled correctly.

Some middle-level players are beginning to wonder if they should leave Dawn City as soon as possible and join other cities. If Dawn City were to be destroyed, a large number of master players would be left homeless and compete to join other cities.

Of course, most people are still observing. After all, Dawn City is the first Sky City and is the fastest in all aspects of development. It has an unshakeable position in the hearts of most players. If there’s a chance to weather the crisis, many are willing to pay some price to ensure the safety of Dawn City.

Until just now, an announcement finally popped up in the game again, this time a city-wide task directly from the City Lord!

Almost as soon as the announcement was made, it was immediately posted on the Fool’s forum.

This announcement of over a thousand words, mentioning elements like the ’God of Shadows,’ ’God’s Devouring,’ and ’Octopus King,’ instantly caused a stir on the forum.

"God of Shadows? Is this a real god?"

"There are actual deities in this world..."

"Is the god trying to destroy Dawn City a form of divine punishment?"

Many people were shocked by the term ’god’ as in human culture past and present, god has always been a figure that cannot be profaned. Especially now that everyone knows that the Star Spirit World is a real place. A real deity has descended to destroy their city, just the thought of it made many feel a sense of resistance.

Of course, many rational players immediately rebutted.

"Divine punishment, my ass. Haven’t you guys played online games? Isn’t this just a big boss?"

"Exactly, and this boss sucks. As soon as it appeared, it was immediately subdued by us. All it can do is get hit now. What are we afraid of?"

"Who cares if it’s a god or not? As long as it shows its health bar, we can take it down!"

"In defense of the glory of the Fool, we cannot refuse!"

"Are you guys serious? Haven’t you seen its ridiculous amount of health?"
