MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter
Chapter 1205 - Chapter 1205 Chapter 1205 The Final Challenge

Chapter 1205: Chapter 1205: The Final Challenge Chapter 1205: Chapter 1205: The Final Challenge Li Yao’s ideal was to forge a powerful army capable of standing up to any legion, and his guild was not short of smart people adept at waging war, so Li Yao wasn’t worried at all.

Once his Mechanical Army was truly in place, bolstered by abundant resources as a backup, and with his assembly line production model, he would eventually have an endless supply of legions to produce.

However, at this stage, he didn’t have the capital to roam freely, just like this time when he deliberately avoided the Devil Tyrannosaurus legion.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t defeat them, but there was no sense in fighting to the death against Devil Tyrannosaurs, incurring heavy losses. Without sufficient resources, even if he could produce enough units, without them being refined through the Furnace, they would not be much use in high-quality battles.

Although he did control several veins of ore, some were required to maintain the guild’s expenses, others to keep the city running, and the amount he could actually use wasn’t much.

Li Yao had made up his mind. When he had free time, he could settle down and think about where there might be large unexplored veins, and then send his units to mine them. But now wasn’t the moment for that.

After participating in this event for so long, everyone’s legions had been upgraded. As they continuously occupied strongholds, Starfire’s armed forces also grew increasingly powerful, basically all equipped with blue, fine-quality gear, and were truly an elite among elites.

Moreover, Li Yao never chose to attack too strong a stronghold and deplete his forces. He would take a detour when encountering formidable challenges because his Scouts did their job well, and he could generally avoid tough battles.

This event wasn’t just about brute force; it was also meant to teach players to use their strengths against their opponent’s weaknesses. Charging head-on sometimes didn’t solve problems and could instead put one in a very passive position.

Of course, some teams banded together to attack strong strongholds, and some even invited Starfire, but Li Yao directly refused.

Under the circumstance where everyone was a competitor, cooperation was virtually non-existent in spirit. Especially when everyone was vying for qualification, it was all too common to see underhanded tactics or treachery. Many strong teams had great potential but were covertly weakened, virtually losing their chance to compete in the end.

In Li Yao’s view, this was an excellent opportunity to strengthen oneself rather than to expend military strength. Sometimes, preserving oneself could lead to better outcomes.

These days, not only were their individual legions being strengthened, but everyone’s levels were also increasing.

Although individual experience from legion battles was relatively smaller, the frequent battles couldn’t be discounted. Li Yao’s level had almost reached forty-nine, and the others in Starfire had also reached levels forty-six or forty-seven.

After days of grueling battles and eliminations, the number of teams that remained was very few, and many of them had suffered severe losses.

When they finally saw the Blood-colored main city of the Primitive Blood Tribe, their bodies had recovered, and the domain field had also dissipated.

All the players felt like they were waking from a dream.

The four major camps were now surrounding the main city of the Primitive Blood Tribe from different directions.

Unexpectedly, the Original Blood main city didn’t have insurmountable walls. Instead, the entire city amassed a vast army of the Primitive Blood Tribe.

The whole main city had become eerily abnormal, with huge Blood-colored Crystal Stones everywhere. These stones emitted a bizarre glow, seemingly forming an immensely large Array that enveloped the entire city.

The engulfed Primitive Blood Tribesmen were in a state of extreme frenzy, and those Devil Tyrannosaurs were mutated by the vile blood, becoming even more ferocious and horrifying.

The entire city seemed to be trapped in a strange space, covered with red mist, looking hazily obscure.

Thump, thump, thump…

With the resounding war drums echoing, the shadow of battle enveloped everyone.

The spectral form of an elderly member of the Original Blood Clan with many blood-colored eyes on his face appeared in all four directions.

He swept his eerie gaze across the legions on all sides, as if he could multitask with a single mind, each specter clearly observing every troop in every direction.

“To have reached this place, you all possess some skill, but this is where it ends for you,” the old man said, steadying his trembling cane. A figure shrouded in a black robe, carrying a ferocious Fire Gun on his back, materialized before him: “You all have had a taste of the valor of our Original Blood Tribesmen. Clearly, there are some formidable characters among you. My Primitive Blood Tribe loves gladiatorial combat, so we shall stick to the old rules.”

The old man pointed behind him at a massive blood-colored Crystal and continued, “I don’t mind telling you, this is the Blood-colored Aura Domain. Within this domain, our legions will be able to unleash five hundred percent of our combat strength, while you all, heeding a hero’s words, will struggle to exert even half of yours.”

“It’s simple to break the domain should you so desire: a frontal assault, defeat my troops and destroy the domain. If you’re confident enough. Another way is to defeat the first hunter of our tribe, the Bloody Hunter Kure. He is the finest youth among our people, defeat him one-on-one, and this domain’s Crystal will shatter by itself.”

Having spoken, the elder bowed and then vanished.

Kure let out a cold laugh, bowed in kind, and waited for someone to step forward.

Many from the various factions did not believe the old man’s words – just because you say it’s a fivefold increase in strength doesn’t make it so.

Thus, several commanders promptly offered high military honors as a reward to those who would attempt an attack.

As the saying goes, with great rewards come brave warriors, and from each faction, elite legions made the attempt.

Some even dispatched their leading legions, yet just as the old man had said, the opposing legion was tremendously powerful. The leading legions fell apart as easily as paper, effortlessly broken as if slaughtering chickens and butchering dogs.

Only then did the various factions start to believe the old man’s words.

On the Dark Camp’s side, Chieftain Cain’s face darkened with annoyance; he hated being led by the nose, but this aura domain was truly frightful, and a straightforward assault meant even his elite troops would merely add to their demerits.

“Is there any brave warrior willing to challenge Kure? Whosoever defeats Kure before any other faction will directly receive the rank of General, along with a five-tier General Set.”

The leaders of the other factions spoke likewise. It was, in reality, a competition, a rivalry among players. Many players knew how this would impact their future evaluations, so they eagerly enlisted.

There were simply too many who wished to challenge, forcing the ranking of attempts to be determined by military merit.

“Aren’t you going to fight, Big Brother?” Seeing Li Yao casually setting up a bunch of tables and chairs, comfortably ready to enjoy the show, Starfire curiously asked.

Li Yao leaned back in his chair, replying, “This is the main event. If I fight, what chance would anyone else have? They’d hold a grudge against me for sure. So I give them plenty of time, no rush, let them play slowly.”

Starfire, and the others from his group, had no words and sat down too. The surrounding players rolled their eyes, but they also breathed a sigh of relief. Starfire’s military achievements were certainly not modest, and with Li Yao’s distinguished combat record, if he entered the fray, would anyone else stand a chance…
