MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter
Chapter 1050 - Chapter 1050 Chapter 1050 Pushing People Too Far

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1050: Pushing People Too Far Chapter 1050: Chapter 1050: Pushing People Too Far The battle had lasted for more than an hour, and the players of Prosperous Era were down to less than thirty thousand, while those Hunters and Contract Summoners who kept rushing in had been killed in numbers more than three times their size.

Tens of thousands of corpses were thrown into the Energy Conversion Pool, but the conversion rate of the initial-stage pools was too low–tens of thousands of bodies only yielded over ten thousand energy units for Li Yao.

Li Yao was still satisfied, as he could at least create a combat insect nest.

Li Yao had finally discovered the benefits of parasitism. Initially, he was puzzled by the quick production of nearly two thousand worker bees, fearing that the energy units used to make them were not cost-effective.

However, when Li Yao produced them, he realized he had been wrong. The lifespan of the produced workers varied depending on the species, but even the shortest-lived worker had a lifespan of three years, and some even lived over a thousand years.

The lifespan of parasitically catalyzed workers, however, was extremely short. For instance, the worker bees produced by spending energy units had a lifespan of fifteen years, but those produced through parasitism lived only for three days before dying.

It wasn’t just the lifespan, all their attributes were less than half of what the nest’s output would be. In other words, they were completely inferior products, or rather, consumables. After all, this type of egg would produce ten every second, and as the battle with Li Yao raged on, they could continue to be produced in large numbers despite their inferior quality, playing a significant role.

Moreover, another use for them was recycling a certain number of these workers to produce a standardized normal worker, the quality of whom depended on the quality of the converted workers.

For example, as Li Yao was of Silver Rank, the workers he summoned were mostly Silver Rank, which meant that recycling the corresponding number of defective workers could yield a normal worker unit, significantly conserving energy compared to using the Energy Conversion Pool.

Another point that surprised Li Yao was the existence of the Frame Space; not only could those workers be stored inside it, but also the skeletons produced by Dark Arrow.

Unlike before, Li Yao couldn’t take them with him and had to let them disperse into skeletons, which was a huge waste.

You must know, even though they were all skeletons of the same quality, their abilities varied according to their professions. Li Yao had summoned many skeletons he was satisfied with, but because he couldn’t take them along, he had to disperse them.

Although he used Dark Arrow to specifically target powerful players or monsters, this was no match for accumulating them.

Now with Frame Bow and Arrow, not only could he preserve the better skeletons, but he could also summon them instantly, rather than having to use Dark Arrow every time there was a battlefield or combat, which was truly a hassle.

“Cough, cough, cough, I say, have you had enough fighting? Although I am very pleased that you’re providing my pet with energy for free, your efficiency is too low, you know. My people have already retreated to the ship, and it’s getting late. I should be going. If you’re feeling kind, I do have a good idea–why not just commit mass suicide? That way, I could gain another twenty thousand energy units,” Li Yao, bored of waiting, spoke directly in the regional channel.

Li Yao talked at length, and they didn’t understand anything about energy sources, but one thing they did get was that the godly pet was Li Yao’s pet. What? They had been fighting over someone else’s pet all this time?

Beast Speaker: “You’ve got to be kidding, this is my pet. You obviously snatched it and should have held onto it properly instead of releasing it, and now it’s out of your hands.”

“Idiot, I’ve made a contract with it, all right?” Li Yao said.

“That’s impossible…” the Beast Speaker didn’t believe it, nor did the other players. They had clearly seen it being hatched, so how could anyone have made a contract with it?

“What’s so impossible about it? Without you all fighting to the death, where would there be so many corpses and souls to catalyze its hatching? Without all you kind-hearted people fighting to the death, where would the energy units from so many corpses come from? You have sacrificed so much, and I kindly allowed you a glimmer of hope, but I’m sorry, I really don’t have enough time.” Li Yao shrugged.

Everyone stopped fighting and stared blankly at Li Yao, unwilling to believe what he was saying was true.

“What proof do you have that what you’re saying is true?”

“Yeah, why should we believe it’s yours?”

“Think just because you’re strong you’re amazing? We getting the divine pet doesn’t necessarily mean we’re weaker than you.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”…

Li Yao was speechless, “Fine, if you need proof, I’ll show it to you.”

With Li Yao’s words, a black mist vortex appeared on the ground, and the Skeletons around the Queen rushed into the vortex with a clattering sound; in less than ten seconds, all two hundred Skeletons had entered the vortex.

And nearly two thousand worker bees once again brought the last wave of corpses to the vortex above the flying Queen’s head, and in a moment, all the Skeletons and bees were gone.

Next, everyone witnessed the Queen turn into a red light spot with a tail of light that shot up like lightning, and then entered the center of Li Yao’s forehead. A red mark resembling a spider appeared on Li Yao’s forehead.

Everyone was stunned, staring blankly at Li Yao, their minds went blank as if dreams had shattered, hearts aching as if they were about to split open.

“Damn it, we’ve been fooled.” Beast Speaker’s face turned pale as he thought about what Li Yao had just said and almost fainted from anger.

The impact was too great. To compete for the Divine Pet, they, Prosperous Era had given up the chance to recapture and counterattack Spark Station, and to fight for the Divine Pet, they had battled with these individual players, suffering heavy casualties.

However, they were nothing more than energy units provided for the Queen.

“Fuck, $^%$%^&**.”

Countless people below cursed Li Yao endlessly, a swarm of abusive words hurled at him.

But Li Yao did not care in the slightest, nor did he feel any guilt. Prosperous Era was an enemy to begin with; what was wrong with playing them once? As for these Hunters and contract summoners, they were not innocent at all. They had come to snatch the Queen; so what if he had tricked them?

Since they had plunged into this turmoil, they naturally had to rely on their own methods.

“Gentlemen, sorry about this, it’s already dark and I haven’t finished my meal. Keep cursing if you like, I’m leaving.”

Li Yao said, and with a flash, his wings spread open and he shot straight into the sky. The black dragon roared unwillingly as she transformed into her Dragon Form. Li Yao landed on her back, Dark Arrow firmly securing him in place, and then the black dragon flew towards a few of Spark Station’s cargo ships far from the coast.

“Fuck, kill him.”

But it was too late; how could they catch up with the black dragon? They could only continue to curse in frustration.

Boom…

After Li Yao left, a small mushroom cloud drowned out all their voices.

“Prosperous Age Base assembly hall has been destroyed, all functional buildings have disappeared, the base is completely ruined, the guild war between Prosperous Era and Starfire has ended, the victor is Starfire. Monster Nests will be refreshed in and around the base ruins.”

Beast Speaker and the players of Prosperous Era were dumbfounded; they had not expected Starfire to be so ruthless, leaving them no way out.

In other words, this area had become a wilderness, where monsters would respawn. Although the place was theirs, constructing a base here again would require them to deal with the local monsters and nests.

“Starfire, Prairie Fire, this is too much!” Beast Speaker bellowed.

Li Yao stood resolutely on the black dragon’s back, the warm breeze making his cape flutter loudly; he looked up at the bright twin moons in the sky and murmured, “Too much, perhaps.”…
