Chapter 1171 - Chapter 1171 Chapter 1171 Unexpected News

Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171 Unexpected News Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171 Unexpected News The outcome was no longer in doubt; having lost his puppets, the tech-otaku, although ranked higher than the hydra, was completely no match for it.

The audience let out a collective sigh of disappointment, the majority of them having lost badly, yet they felt exhilarated, especially reminiscing about Li Yao dismantling such a formidable puppet, as if they themselves were battling against the puppets.

Li Yao stepped forward as the corpse dropped two items, one being war equipment, and indeed, the other was an ancient scroll.

Hearthstone

Rank: Golden Legend

Star of Steel, wearing this equipment can eliminate the hostility of mechanical monsters, turning them neutral. It also increases the favorability of friendly mechanical creatures.

Will of Steel, all Mechanical Legion under one’s command are enveloped by the Will of Steel, increasing all performance by 15%.

Tide of Steel, the entire legion’s morale surges like a rainbow, the phantoms of the legions charge at the enemy legions, the phantoms possess 50% of the individual legion’s attributes, lasting five minutes.

Wearing Condition: Craftsman

From a common standpoint, this medal, as a golden war equipment, is not very strong, at most it is the pinnacle of epic. Moreover, the wearing condition requires a craftsman, which is still too high for players. By the craftsman stage, players are generally level sixty. By that time, they would have better equipment.

But in Li Yao’s view, even an ordinary dark-gold war equipment could not compare, although the legion’s skill was unstable and varied with the legion, if one possessed a powerful legion it would naturally be stronger.

Will of Steel, this aura effect wasn’t bad, all mechanical properties increased by 15%, that was already good enough.

But most importantly, the Star of Steel, this effect could play an extraordinary role in special scenarios.

Li Yao equipped it immediately, then took a deep breath before turning to the ancient scroll.

Combination Matrix

Type: Formation

One can craft a Combination Puppet Matrix Rune Stone according to the blueprint.

The introduction was very simple, it didn’t even specify conditions, but when Li Yao looked at the figures on the scroll, he broke into a joyful smile.

“This is indeed a good start.” Li Yao contentedly took the blueprint.

If he found another matrix to combine with, he would be able to craft a Combined Puppet Legion. By then, Puppet Beasts would definitely not be mere cannon fodder.

Just thinking of countless mechanical puppets charging and combining into various monsters or war machines, that scenario was simply too wonderful.

However, the other matrix blueprint, as far as Li Yao knew, was not to be hoped for before reaching the max level for the first time; there was only one place that produced it, obtaining it was still a distant matter.

But Li Yao wasn’t disappointed, having this blueprint he could craft powerful Battle Puppets, and he was already very satisfied.

Li Yao was very ambitious, having seen the Gryphon Lord’s Combined Puppet, he also spotted the flaw in Combined Puppets.

That was the lack of puppet spirit; not to mention compared to a Fire Eagle, even compared to Death God 4000 it was far inferior, otherwise, he wouldn’t have won so easily.

But for mechanical puppets to obtain Advanced Wisdom, Li Yao could manage one without a problem, but managing several at the current stage was simply impossible. Even the intelligence of his current pet turrets wasn’t high, and was still inferior to the Gryphon Lord’s.

Li Yao had been pondering over this problem, and it was the Spider Tank that gave him a clue.

So, Li Yao constructed a Beast King Puppet, which he named himself.

He planned to capture super Beast Kings with Demigod Divine Blood lineage, and then transform them just as he had done with the Spider Tanks. The enhancement of the Spider Tanks had been a stroke of luck, but now, with two Furnaces at his disposal, he only needed to reflect for a moment before letting the Furnaces fully merge, ensuring there were no obvious flaws.

The reason he targeted those Beast Kings with Demigod blood wasn’t that the others weren’t strong, but that those with Divine Blood typically also possessed considerable wisdom.

Moreover, there was an added benefit if Li Yao took them as pets; they could be conveniently resurrected and repaired, unlike the Gryphon Lord’s Combined Puppets. Apart from one or two that had become pets and could be resurrected, the rest were merely tamed, not only suffering irreparable damage but also lacking the unity of mind and spirit, as well as the attribute enhancements that come from the bond between master and pet.

Li Yao had it all planned out. Once things had stabilized here and he had arranged for local matters, he would seek out Beast Kings. Along with the Spider Tanks, Fire Hawks, and the Death God 4000 already under his command, he had amassed quite a force.

He didn’t want to transform the Black Dragon Queen; after all, she possessed protective powers and was already quite strong in her own right. Transformation might actually do more harm than good.

He intended to upgrade the Hydra after he became a Hero, and he even planned on enhancing the Sea Monster. Thus, realistically, he wouldn’t need to find many more wild beasts.

The Cannon Battery itself was a combined part, so Li Yao had set it aside for now.

When the Gryphon Lord died, Li Yao led his Legion from the rear to the city walls, the players’ army fell into complete disarray. Other than a few die-hard followers of the Gryphon Lord who still mounted attacks, the entire Mechanical Legion laid down their arms and surrendered. With their lord gone and their families within the city, they had no fight left in them.

Even though the players were falling apart, Li Yao had no intention of letting them off. The Tank Legion and the Fighter Jet Cluster mobilized, along with the hunting units and the Blood Clan Air Force, causing the players’ front lines to collapse as well.

With the Gryphon Lord gone, the players would never receive the rewards he promised, so many lost their will to fight and begged for mercy.

But during war, Hearthstone couldn’t be used.

Li Yao ignored their pleas for mercy entirely. They had been relentless in their attack when they stood to benefit, almost obliterating his new city, fueling his anger.

So, Li Yao showed no mercy and didn’t even bother to make an appearance, choosing to stay in the city studying the Combination Puppet Matrix.

The Black Dragon Queen took unified command over the slaughter of the player army, while Collet took charge of integrating the surrendered Mechanical Legion.

“Tragic, so tragic.”

“Lack of unified command leads to such outcomes.”

“It’s not just about command. The situation they’re facing now is that there’s no benefit to continuing the fight.”

“Exactly. They can’t conquer the city. Without the Gryphon Lord, the promised rewards are gone. Who would want to commit their trump card legions now? Everyone is holding back.”

The audience discussed and critiqued the situation, thoroughly enjoying today’s battle.

In half a day’s time, the city had deployed most of its troops, slaughtering every player who couldn’t escape. The plains were strewn with the corpses of players and their legions.

Li Yao’s logistics troops were busy collecting the corpses along the way and without much discussion, they threw them directly into the conversion pools.

Being far more elite than the players and considering that the enemy had not committed their trump card legions to a direct confrontation, Li Yao’s casualties were minimal. Digesting this batch of corpses would somewhat restore his swarm’s vitality.

While it wouldn’t reach the peak numbers of the previous day, it was still a significant recovery.

And then, an unexpected piece of news reached Li Yao–reporting that the Black Heart Lord, taking advantage of his pursuit of the players, had vanished with his people. They had taken a good portion of the Heart City’s residents, presumably fleeing to the Underground World, leaving Black New City leaderless…
