MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter
Chapter 1179 - Chapter 1179 Chapter 1179 Competition

Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: Competition Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: Competition This time, Li Yao used the Orc Main City’s Hearthstone, which is also the Dark Camp’s largest city’s guild residence. Now, Starfire’s stronghold in this city served as a transit station, granting the members of Starfire an additional guild residence Hearthstone.

Moreover, due to the beginning of trade with the Goblins, Starfire’s shops were doing even better business than before.

As the largest main city of the Dark Camp, this place was naturally bustling with activity, and not all players were interested in besieging the Primitive Blood Tribe.

Together with the main events, there were a plethora of auxiliary activities–Gwent card competitions, pet battles, even exploring some one-time dungeons, slaying bosses, or engaging in trading models and adventures. Additionally, corresponding systems for rewards had been introduced.

The Ancient God World was so vast that even if you did not follow the major events, you could still have a great time playing without falling behind others. The key was what aspect you wanted to play.

The main events were set up for players who enjoyed thrills and challenges, offering many high-difficulty challenges and achievements.

Moreover, the siege of the Primitive Blood Tribe was both a test of military strength and individual challenge capability.

Through these two ways, one could acquire relatively powerful troops.

Even so, when Li Yao arrived at Starfire’s location, a day had already passed; he had indeed arrived much later than intended.

Along the way, the traces left by war were everywhere, with several factions attacking the Primitive Blood Tribe from four different directions.

The Light Faction launched their attack from the north primarily using the Ancient Elves, while the neutral factions, led by the Amazons, attacked from the west. The factions of the Sub-dimension that had arrived before the merging began their assault from the south.

The Dark Camp was led by the Minotaurs, attacking from the east.

Although it seemed like a massive display of force, the elite troops actually mobilized by the camps were limited. The merging of dimensions made it unrealistic to quickly gather a large number of troops.

The fights this time mainly rallied players, while the faction’s main legions only maintained the base camps or deployed at critical moments to secure victory.

But this was not surprising–after two months of war mode, the players had all gathered quite a bit of military force.

Experts generally possessed legions of over ten thousand troops, and the stronger ones even had several ten-thousand-member legions. The top players naturally possessed powerful troops.

For instance, the top players who lingered in the Dead Light Area had gained legions like the Gryphon, but this was just one corner of the game; the Gryphon was far from the only high-grade troop type. Many top or lucky players had also acquired other high-grade troops.

Especially in this war mode, many participated in the form of a guild. A single player might not have a large force, but combined, they were very powerful indeed.

And the competition was extremely fierce. The most direct example was the competition among the four major factions, then the competition within the same faction to earn achievements, and so on.

“You’ve finally shown up. Anyone who didn’t know any better would think our guild leader had disappeared. You’ve been away from the guild for over a month, right? A lot of people haven’t even met you,” Sister Li teased.

Li Yao gave an awkward cough and said, “I was held up by some matters; there was nothing I could do. But my gains this time aren’t bad.”

The Guardian Angel chuckled, “Our loot is even better; we’ve not only captured two medium-sized graveyards but also absorbed a nearly two hundred thousand strong land army. It’s precisely because of this legion that we dared to deploy fully.”

Li Yao raised his eyebrows, “You managing to take down two medium-sized graveyards exceeds my expectations. I suppose even the super guilds don’t do much better.”

“Don’t I know it, it’s usually the medium-sized strongholds we capture,” Feng Yi replied. “But you yourself managed to snag a large city. We watched the livestream; you’ve expanded your power quite a bit, haven’t you?”

“It’s alright, it’s alright,” Li Yao glanced around. “It seems like we’re in the central army. For a small guild like us to be amidst the super guilds certainly feels a bit oppressive.”

“I think it’s fine; although we’re few in number, our entry requirements are too high. Those who join are the best of the best. Competing with them has its give and take, some wins and some losses. But with the guild leader boss here this time, I reckon we’ll be unstoppable, whether in war mode or personal challenges,” Seventy-Two Transformations said with a grin.

Li Yao forced a smile, “You really have a lot of confidence in me.”

As Li Yao was scanning the scene, he noticed that Tong Tong was keeping her head down and not speaking. He couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong with Tong Tong? Are you upset because I arrived late?”

Tong Tong glanced at Li Yao and said, “I wouldn’t get mad at a big dummy like you.”

“Then what is it?” Li Yao was puzzled.

Sister Li gave a wry smile, “Before you arrived, ten central military guilds received the task of capturing this stronghold. Tong Tong volunteered to lead the charge. Everything was going smoothly, and we were about to plant the flag, but we were suddenly thwarted by Europe’s Blood Lion Guild. Our legion got trapped and suffered some troop losses. Someone else claimed the first achievement, so she’s quite angry.”

Li Yao understood then; as long as it didn’t affect the victory of the war, player legions fighting each other was an eyes open, eyes shut affair for the officials. Undercutting each other for first achievements was common.

But during a mission, one couldn’t seek vengeance to the death. They had to wait for another opportunity, provided it didn’t interfere with the mission.

“Victory and defeat are common in the military; we’ll just have to regain our position next time. Don’t sulk,” Li Yao patted Tong Tong on the head.

“Hmph, that Blood Lion Guild is awful. They targeted us specifically, willing to give up the first achievement themselves just to thwart us. It infuriates me,” Tong Tong was still visibly angry.

Li Yao had an idea. He immediately summoned Star Shine and Xiao Man. The appearance of a fledgling dragon and a palm-sized baby Gryphon fluttered around Tong Tong playfully, immediately capturing her attention.

“What’s the situation exactly?” Li Yao asked.

“Who knows? We were all baffled. But there’s really no need to know the reason. All the guilds are collaborators, but they are also competitors. Since they’ve provoked us, we’ll pay them back in the future. Starfire has developed to the point where we no longer fear any threats,” Sister Li said confidently.

“That’s the spirit! Sister Li always takes charge,” Feng Yi laughed.

Li Yao smiled wryly, not expecting the members of his guild to have such confidence already. But it was normal; aside from numbers, Starfire’s strength in all aspects was even surpassing that of those super guilds.

At that moment, a messenger riding a two-legged dragon flew over their heads.

“Delivering Chieftain Cain’s military order. All legions will rest for a quarter of an hour, then advance en masse to meet at the Blood Sealed Fortress, and follow the main legions into the Primitive Blood Tribe’s territory.”

“The Dark Camp is a bit slow, isn’t it? I saw on the forum on the way over that the Sub-dimension’s legions have already entered the Original Blood Mountains?”

The Original Blood Mountains were a large map of connective mountain ranges, the ancestral lands and stronghold of the Primitive Blood Tribe.

“More than that, the three factions have been stopped outside the Original Blood Mountains, which is why the leaders of the three factions are particularly irritated.”…
