Chapter 1348 - Chapter 1348 Chapter 1348 Differences

Chapter 1348: Chapter 1348: Differences Chapter 1348: Chapter 1348: Differences Li Yao and his team were now in a dire situation, retreating was not an option, and advancing with just their team’s strength made completing the task nearly impossible–it was akin to seeking death.

The number of monsters inside was overwhelming; the monsters in that vast secret realm were a fraction compared to this deeper underground world.

Retreating was even less viable; their escape routes were likely cut off already. Facing the pursuit of the Dark Elves, escape was not an option, or else Li Yao would have fled long ago.

After a moment of silence, Li Yao said, “As you might have noticed, due to the large secret realm, the number of players in this nearby city is increasing daily.”

“Do you want to hire other players and form a hired Legion to complete the task together?” Edward furrowed his brows, “It’s a good idea, but it would come at a cost. However, it would be worth it.”

Li Yao was stunned, “A hired Legion?”

“Isn’t that what you were planning?” the beast tamer asked.

Li Yao shook his head, “My plan is to release the news without mentioning the task, then reveal the location of the entrance. As long as we can fight our way in, we can then think about how to deal with the Lion Scorpion Goddess.”

“I don’t think that’s wise. Although we wouldn’t be paying a cost, the lack of organization and discipline might be worse than paying a cost to gather strength,” Edward continued, “Forming a strong team could allow us to break through.”

The beast tamer also stated, “I agree with the spellcaster’s view. We cannot summon Legions to assist in battle. Even if others disperse the power, just relying on us few to defeat the Lion Scorpion Goddess would be extremely difficult.”

“Even if we recruit a hired mercenaries Legion, it would only be a loose sand and might become a burden rather than an asset. You all see how many monsters there are; tens of thousands of players going in won’t make a splash, and being bound by a Legion would prevent us from making any progress,” said Li Yao. He knew the advantages of having more people, but he also believed that a smaller team was more likely to succeed; more people could actually be detrimental in the chaos of battle.

Edward frowned further, “I know you’re strong, but we’re already at our limit facing so many monsters in the large secret realm. I still think we need to hire the mercenaries here. Since neither of us can convince the other, let’s vote.”

“Don’t forget, when we came, Ross told you to follow my lead.”

In truth, Li Yao was indifferent to completing the task. If he could kill the Lion Scorpion Goddess, it would certainly be a great gain, but to do so, he must stir the waters, as the spoils of war would be immense. He didn’t wish to risk his life for so-called spoils, as dying would result in irreparable losses.

Moreover, the Lion Scorpion Goddess was not to be trifled with. Failing Ross’s task wouldn’t lead to them being targeted, given the main goddess’s strength, but killing the projection of the Lion Scorpion Goddess would truly offend a main goddess.

While Li Yao had offended many gods, those gods were barely surviving, and Li Yao was confident he could handle them. The Lion Scorpion Goddess and Ross were too cunning, loving schemes and calculations. It was hard to predict when he might be trapped by their ploys.

The players still didn’t realize the terror of the two goddesses. So, Li Yao’s ideal plan was to provoke a battle at the Lion Scorpion Goddess’s location and then escape when Goddess Ross appeared.

The beast tamer thought for a moment and then said, “I think we should vote.”

Li Yao smiled, “Since that’s the case, let’s split into two groups.”

Edward looked alarmed, “Don’t be impulsive.”

“I am clear-headed, my mind is made up. Since you don’t agree with my view, we’ll each follow our own path, which might actually be for the best. I will try to summon the Starfire Core Group over, which will allow us to form two teams, aiding us in completing the task.”

Actually, this outcome was not bad for Li Yao, as he still had to be cautious when collaborating with them, not fully trusting them since he was still vulnerable.

“True to your name, Prairie Fire, always so imperious, yet still a bit young,” the beast tamer said with a hint of mockery. “Don’t think that just because you won once, you are invincible. Everyone has their tricks. Some methods can’t be used in the arena, otherwise you might not have won.”

“You’re right, everyone has their tricks, but your tricks are useless against me. Let’s just part ways; regardless, whoever completes the task would have their own justification,” said Li Yao as he swiftly moved towards the door.

A cold gleam flashed in the beast tamer’s eyes as Edward quickly stepped in to stop him.

Seeing Li Yao disappearing through the doorway, the beast tamer finally spoke, “Why stop me? This young guy really doesn’t know how high the sky is. Does he really think he’s invincible?”

Edward sighed, “Give it up, you’ll never understand how terrifying he is without truly collaborating with him. If you attacked, it would only bring shame upon yourself, and he did make some logical points. Splitting into two groups isn’t a bad idea. I’ll hire Magicians to summon some elites.”

“You’re insane too, the Magician’s Demon Portal has its distance limitations, and beyond that, you’d need a Crystal Stone framework’s Amplification Magic Formation, which would cost enough to hire a large number of mercenaries,” sighed the beast tamer. “Forget it, I don’t have that kind of money. To resurrect the beasts killed by him, I’ve already spent all I had.”

“Summoning a large number of elites may not be possible, but at least I’ll have some assurance. Otherwise, the mercenaries might not abide by the contract when they see corresponding benefits,” Edward, clearly not short of money, argued.

“Alright then, let’s head to the Adventure Hall,” the beast tamer, who showed no regret for Li Yao’s departure, suggested; he, a master himself, naturally did not wish to be commanded by others.

Li Yao then opened another room and started posting on the forum.

“Master, would you like me to spread the news?” asked the Flying Serpent Demon.

Li Yao nodded, “Let Dragon Queen and Vivian act separately if necessary; they can use some other means,” handing each of them a bag of money.

The Dragon Queen opened the money bag and exclaimed, “Master is really generous, five hundred Gold Coins.”

Li Yao shook his head, not responding.

After the pair left, Li Yao posted directly without saying much–just uploaded the temple’s footage and made some guesses, providing the location.

He stated that there seemed to be a critically injured deity, not elaborating further.

At the same time, Edward also posted, his content strikingly similar to Li Yao’s.

But that was enough to stir up countless players.

There were already many players rushing to the location, and with the appearance of the two posts, it only added fuel to the fire.

Moreover, many rumors began circulating within the city about this deep underground world…
