Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Formation of the War Alliance

Back at the Manor Castle, Song Jian glanced at his task bar. The task of finding the Book of the Abyss showed as completed, but Song Jian had no way of returning to the library to submit it to Cecilia;

The Book of the Abyss had changed from a mission item to a Dark Gold Quality item that had already merged with Song Jian. He definitely wouldn’t want to submit it as a mission item again.

” What to do now? Should I submit this task or not?” Song Jian was a bit vexed. The reward for this task surely wouldn’t be a Dark Gold Quality item, it was highly likely to be a sword technique of the Knight of Dawn.

Although Song Jian yearned for the sword technique, he couldn’t bear to hand over the Dark Gold Quality Book of the Abyss that he already had.

You should know that the Fourth-tier Demonic Flame alone from the Book of the Abyss, condensed into Abyssal Demon Armor, was already on par with a sword technique, let alone the other Abyssal abilities within the book.

He opened the Book of the Abyss and found a skill tree. At that moment, all the skills were greyed out, except for the “Abyssal Demon Armor” at the bottom, which was lit up, indicating it could be used.

There were six other Abyss magics on the same level as the Abyssal Demon Armor, such as “Abyssal Breath,” “Abyss Wall,” “Abyss Spike,” and more powerful spells like “Abyss Shock,” “Abyss Blast” on the higher level.

With the Book of the Abyss, Song Jian could become an Abyssal Mage. It was just a pity that he could only use one spell – “Abyssal Demon Armor”.

To activate other spells, he had to use battle experience points. To activate a spell like “Abyssal Breath,” he needed 100,000 battle experience points, and a higher level spell like “Abyss Shock” required 800,000 battle experience points.

While Song Jian was exploring the Book of the Abyss, he suddenly received a message from Luo Tianyu;

“When are you going to form an alliance? If you’re not going to, I’ll join someone else’s!” Luo Tianyu’s impatient voice rang in Song Jian’s ear.

“Oh, has an alliance invited you to join?” Song Jian laughed.

“Has an alliance invited me to join? Can you drop the ‘Has’ part? There are too many alliances inviting me to join, all ranked in the top ten!” Luo Tianyu shouted.

“Okay, I’ll form the alliance now and invite you then!” Song Jian said with a laugh.

He opened the Manor Castle property system and chose “Form Alliance”.

System: Please enter the name of the alliance you want to form.

After thinking for a bit, Song Jian directly entered the four characters “City of Hope”.

System: Checking

System: The alliance name does not conflict, you can use this name to form an alliance.

System: To form an alliance, you need to pay 100,000 Doomsday Coins. Do you want to pay?

“100,000 Doomsday Coins?” Song Jian was taken aback. Many players weren’t even able to fork out 10,000 Doomsday Coins. 100,000 Doomsday Coins would deter over 80% of players who wanted to form an alliance.

Pay!

To others, 100,000 Doomsday Coins maybe an obstruction, but to Song Jian, 100,000 Doomsday Coins was no big deal.

After paying the 100,000 Doomsday Coins, the system sent out one final piece of information;

System: Please select three players with safe houses to respond to your alliance formation. Once they respond, the “City of Hope” alliance will be successfully formed. If the required five players do not respond within 24 hours, the formation will fail.

“I need three players to respond?” Song Jian was taken aback, his brow furrowed.

He usually mostly played alone and seldom interacted with other players. Moreover, the three responding players couldn’t be picked haphazardly. Once chosen, they couldn’t be changed and had considerable authority in the alliance, second only to the alliance leader.

If these three responding players conspired together, they could even reduce the Alliance leader to a figurehead, hence the choice had to be made carefully.

After pondering for a while, Song Jian finally sent a response request to Li

Ke’er, Wang Qi, and Luo Tianyu;

Luo Tianyu and Li Ke’er responded quite quickly, but Wang Qi did not respond for a while. Evidently, he was discussing the matter with his companions.

If Wang Qi became part of the alliance, the group they had just formed would surely have to join as well;

“Brother Song, are you forming an alliance?” Wang Qi connected with Song Jian’s communications, asking: “Can the rest of my squad join too?”

“Of course, everyone’s welcome!” Song Jian laughed;

“That’s great!”

Soon, Wang Qi also responded to the formation of the alliance.

System: You have successfully established the “City of Hope” alliance. We hope that you can achieve the redemption of all mankind on this deserted piece of land!

System: Will you use your territory as the alliance territory?

After setting up an alliance, you can set your safehouse as the alliance territory, or choose any unoccupied area as the alliance territory;

However, using your own territory as the territory of the alliance not only enhances the defense of the territory but also saves a lot of money for constructing initial buildings.

Obviously, Song Jian set his own territory as the alliance’s, and soon, the original Manor Castle began to change rapidly. The surrounding walls slowly began to glow brilliantly;

The castle steadily expanded outward, the walls grew taller, and the Spirit Field inside the walls also expanded outward with the expansion of the castle;

The bloody ghoul poison tree, Alex, was even scared and jumped out from the Spirit Field, panickedly running outwards;

In no time at all, a medieval European castle appeared in front of Song Jian.

System: The safehouse has been successfully transformed into an alliance castle, it has both the properties of a safe house and an alliance castle, and will gain stronger properties after further upgrades;

He opened the safehouse property interface, and there were plenty of buildings that only an alliance possesses, such as the Alliance Shop, Parliament Hall, and other special buildings.

In the Alliance Shop, there were many siege engines that regular shops didn’t have, like ladders, rams, battering rams, catapults, etc;

With these war weapons, future territorial expansion campaigns would be much easier, but these siege instruments were by no means cheap, and their quality was only the lowest, white-grade. They weren’t durable and would be damaged after not very long.

Moreover, these siege weapons were exclusive to the members of the “City of Hope” alliance and, most importantly, these siege weapons were limited supplies.

Despite so many drawbacks, these siege instruments were still the best tools for attacking city defenses. It was simply impossible to break through a safehouse upgraded to a Manor level without siege engines.

After forming the alliance, Song Jian was surprised to find that his territory had doubled in size, not only encompassing Luo Tianyu’s barracks but also several nearby player’s safehouses;

However, at that moment, these player’s safehouses were showing glaring red on the alliance territory map;
