MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Chapter 711: Chapter 711: Call from the Ancient God

Dull Eyes, eyes glazed over, blasted a demon away with a Lava Eruption, boredly saying: “So annoying, we’ve been fighting demons all day. Aren’t the demons here running out? Big bro, when are we going to kill the boss?”

“No rush, just wait a while longer.” He stood on top of the sentry post, unleashing full firepower, continuously reaping the demons besieging the post.

“Wait again? How much longer do we have to wait?” Dull Eyes drooped suddenly, “What if the boss gets killed by someone else? We won’t get anything.”

Li Yao shook his head and said, “That’s impossible. The ones fighting now are only clones of the boss, you can see that the portal stopped operating half a day ago. That means the reinforcements of the demons have been cut off. He will only step in once most of the demons here are dead. Moreover, I want them to make their move to hold the boss.”

Yaoji was taken aback and asked, “Is our target not the boss?”

“Of course not. This base can’t be controlled by the Transfer Demon, the real control point is the portal.” Li Yao chuckled.

...

Sister Li suddenly realized, “So you want the actual boss to be occupied, and then I go to seize control of the portal?”

Li Yao nodded, “That’s right. What’s a boss worth? At most, it drops a Colonel Medal. If we’re lucky, we might get a Golden Dress or something, but no matter what, these things are only worth something to an individual. Only by capturing this place can we get access to troops and buildings. Troops and buildings are not easily obtained, they can’t be compared with even ten level-30 Golden Dresses.”

After hearing Li Yao’s explanation, everyone felt more reassured and started to tirelessly grind military merits. There were too many monsters here.

In the course of the day, who knows how many teams have entered the lower level, but the monsters are still countless.

Of course, this has something to do with the portal, which is now closed. As the number of players increase, the number of monsters is dropping rapidly.

Half a day later, the monsters had become thin and sparse, and Starfire encountered quite a few players. Some even wanted to dominate the base, but they were directly crushed.

Another half day passed, the Black Triangle rallied hundreds of people to siege the post, and a fight broke out between the two sides.

The timing they chose was excellent, just when Starfire went offline to rest in turns, they caught them by surprise.

Even Li Yao hadn’t expected that they would masquerade as several passing teams, after all, there are quite a number of players passing by, and numerous players resting briefly at the base.

No major incidents happened during the day, and the overconfidence resulted from their superior strength caused them to lapse, resulting in their defenses being breached.

This was the first time Starfire suffered a small setback. Except for Li Yao, Sister Li, and Unparalleled Yaoji, who moved quickly, the others all died once.

Afterward, the three of them were incessantly hunting down the Black Triangle United Army, eventually causing their entire army to be vanquished.

Li Yao still wasn’t satisfied and directly headed for the respawn point, killing them once again. He only stopped when they didn’t dare to respawn.

“We were negligent this time.” Li Yao said indifferently.

“Yes, we’ve been too smooth until now, and have let our guard down. In the future, we can’t underestimate any enemy. Let’s take this as a lesson.” Sister Li also said.

Everyone nodded. This time, they had a private grudge against the Black Triangle. From now on, it would become a do-or-die situation.

“The only disappointment is that we died and lost the military merit medals, and we still can’t equip the Colonel Medal.” Dull Eyes was still somewhat resentful towards the Colonel Medal.

“Don’t worry, we’ll be able to equip it in one day. Li Yao suddenly stood up and said, “It’s time.”

“What, has Fire Hawk sent a message?” Sister Li also became noticeably more spirited.

Li Yao immediately shared an image, which showed a chaotic battlefield.

“Tsk tsk, it’s quite lively.” Guardian Angel saw the chaotic scene and could not help but feel schadenfreude.

The true form of the Portal Demon has finally appeared. Its body was massive and cloaked in a dark golden hue. It constantly shimmered, and with each flicker, numerous players were cut down by the blade-like arms.

But that’s not the only reason why player casualties keep increasing. Squads of players were also killing each other for the Portal Demon.

Guilds had many rivals due to conflicts over equipment, treasure chests, and monster spawn points.

What started out as small disputes escalated into full-blown battles, and both guilds would get involved.

It was not surprising that they encountered conflicts this time, especially since these teams all came from different administrative districts, and even if you look at it in terms of distance, they could even be from other planets, so the battle would only spread wider and wider.

“This Portal Demon is terrifying, its Blink with a range of hundreds of meters occurs every five seconds, and its arms are just like Dark Gold Equipment. One touch and you’re dead. Moreover, it releases poison and lightning that covers hundreds of meters, neutral camp monsters are too nasty.” Tianxiang lamented.

The neutral faction’s monsters put too much pressure on healing, they were hard to predict.

While they were grinding monsters, they often encounter various types of attacks, such as toxins, lightning, arcane, and fire from the earth. Sometimes they were caught off guard. They wouldn’t have been able to hold this base if they weren’t all captains by now.

“Yeah, it’s clearly a close combat type, but it can use so many types of magic. And while it’s a long-range fighter, it can still use a Counter Shield. It’s just infuriating, I hate neutral maps.” Dull Eyes was bored to death.

Stop complaining, now everyone take turns to go offline and sort out your issues, we set off in one hour.

Li Yao also logged off, took a bath, ate something, and was about to log back on when he suddenly received a communication from Ancient Gods Company.

“Is this Mr. Li?” As a pleasant female voice chimed, a figure wearing glasses and professional attire appeared in the projector’s image.

Li Yao nodded, “From the Ancient Gods Company?”

“Yes, more accurately, I am the Chief Administrative Assistant of the Independent Mech Research Lab of Ancient Gods Company. You can call me Anna.” Anna introduced herself.

“So may I know the purpose of this call?” Li Yao was curious.

Anna said seriously, “As the owner of our research lab’s first mecha, and therefore our lab’s primary test pilot, the doctors are quite dissatisfied with you.”

Li Yao frowned, “The mecha seems to belong to me personally.”

“Of course, there’s no dispute about that. I’m just conveying the wishes of the doctors. As for what action to take, that’s up to you.” Without beating around the bush anymore, Anna continued, “You rarely use the mecha since you got it, and the data obtained by the doctors is very limited, so they hope that you will be more active in the future.”

Li Yao let out a bitter laugh, “I’m in Mingzhu City, it’s very peaceful here. There’s hardly any need to use the mecha.”

Anna chuckled, “The doctors say, if there’s nothing going on, why should you travel in a rubbish maglev car? From now on, use the mecha. The lab will reimburse you for the energy costs. Ahem, and they also say, if there’s nothing happening, can’t you stir up some trouble? With such a powerful mecha, don’t you want to play some macho games? How can you achieve anything if you don’t take action? As long as you don’t destroy Mingzhu City, they’ll cover for you.”

Pfft…

Li Yao nearly spat out the tea he just drank. What kind of twisted logic is this…

“Alright, I have conveyed the intentions of those old doctors. Next, Ancient Gods Company has an invitation for Mr. Li.”…
