MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

The Turtle Boss’s spinning state had lasted for a minute, with all of Li Yao’s skeletons having been shattered, leaving piles of scattered bones on the small island.

When the Turtle Boss stopped, it stood still and immobile.

Li Yao immediately jumped down, executing a Shadow Roll and safely landed not far from the turtle. Its head and limbs had emerged but it seemed to be in a dazed state, slightly swaying and with no focus in its eyes.

Thud, thud, thud…

Three Arrow Towers were released, he then drew out his heavy crossbow, continuously unleashing a barrage of attacks.

-789-802-799

-658…

The Turtle Boss was stunned for a dozen of seconds before it regained clarity. Now that Li Yao was fighting solo, he was even more nimble and flexible. The boss’s attacks were indeed powerful, but apart from rotating and rushing, it had no other methods.

When the boss was left with thirty thousand and ten thousand health points respectively, it again used the rotating rush. But having already seen the skill release mechanism once, Li Yao naturally evaded it in advance.

He directly retreated to the top of the cave using the fire eagle, and once the boss stopped spinning, he jumped down again tocontinue dealing damage.

This boss was really difficult. If encountered in the wild and with the existence of an Aerial Ban Array, Li Yao would certainly be in a disastrous situation.

Finally, the boss stopped its feeble attacks.

“I have finally been liberated, the Moon God, I see the Moon God!”

The madness in the Turtle boss’s eyes finally disappeared, and its body was enveloped in a silver beam of light.

An illusionary turtle emerged from its body, then it nodded at Li Yao.

“Under the guidance of the Moon God, I will watch over you. You did a good job, my treasure is in this shell, it now belongs to you.”

The turtle’s soul bathed in the silver moonlight gradually disappeared.

“System: Prairie Fire killed the level 16 Boss, Mokerui, for the first time. Glorious reward, reputation with all races increased by 100 points.”

A colourful screen appeared in the view of all online players, and the global chat exploded once again.

Even though there are now alliances, small teams, and large teams achieving world announcements, they are all for low-level bosses.

The most was a level ten boss, which felt like it was breaking through to the heavens. This was something they could brag about for a long time. However, the only one able to take down bosses that others saw as high in level, was Li Yao who came out on top.

Whilst ordinary players admired and worshipped him, guilds that had vendettas with Starfire gnashed their teeth. This Prairie Fire, can’t he settle down a bit?

Not long ago, there had been the Bloodlust Hunter King. After just over a day, while players hadn’t completely forgotten about this person, he once again established his presence by taking out another boss.

What upset and frustrated them even more was that Li Yao always stayed one step ahead of them.

Ancient God bosses were too hard. Now, the normal path for high-end players is to first level up, then challenge lower-level bosses and gain lower-level epic equipment.

The ones who can run the main storyline only get equipment that currently fits their level. Also, it was a team dungeon, not everyone can always get the equipment they want.

However, Li Yao has been consistently challenging higher level bosses. He can challenge higher-level bosses even if he has not reached their level yet, his equipment always leading the way. And with better equipment, he is able to challenge even higher-level bosses, entering a virtuous cycle.

Then, someone noticed that Li Yao had already reached level 14.

There are still plenty of leveling fanatics. Many guilds are busy clearing dungeons, with their levels typically between eleven and twelve.

But now, Starfire Guild no longer dominated the level leaderboard. It was generally filled with independent players who had undergone their class change. They couldn’t say that they were stronger than others, but at least they were all leveling fanatics. In addition, some guilds aimed to advertise and increase their exposure, so they worked hard to nurture a player that could make it onto the leaderboard. As a result, the level leaderboard had been in constant flux these past few days.

There were already players who wanted to brag about surpassing Li Yao, but unexpectedly in the blink of an eye, he had advanced to level 14.

More crucially, they were all aware that Li Yao was either killing or taking the first kill. He wasn’t leveling with focus, causing many players to feel a sense of defeat.

“Man, you actually sneaked off to solo another boss.” Da Vinci was leveling with the new members they had recruited into the guild when he saw that Li Yao had achieved another first kill. He instantly complained on the guild’s elder channel.

“Big brother, you’re too bad, you didn’t call us to kill the high-level boss,” Dumbfounded Tongtong was also leveling with Feng Yi.

“I even went out of my way to find awesome hunter equipment for you, but you flew solo. Guess you don’t need it anymore,” said the Guardian Knight.

“Share the equipment, I also want to see what attributes level 15 equipment will have.” A 16-level boss would usually drop level 15 equipment.

“Alright, I’ll start now.”

Li Yao walked over to the side of the turtle shell, which had considerably shrunk, and reached inside.

Low-level Turtle Demon Crystal

Quality: Purple epic

Description: A low-level demon crystal stone produced from a turtle-like Warcraft, but this demon crystal contains the divine power of the Moon God.

Function: Can be used as high-level energy and extra material. Broadly applicable.

“Demon crystal, does this mean there are Warcraft creatures after the Ancient God too?” asked a puzzled Dumbfounded Tongtong.

Li Yao nodded, saying, “Mmhmm. Once your level is high, the monsters you encounter are basically Warcraft creatures. I didn’t expect this low-level Turtle Boss to produce a Demon Crystal. It must be thanks to the Moon God’s effect.”

“Demon Crystal, I’ve heard that Demon Crystals can add a special attribute to a piece of equipment.” Li Jie also spoke up: “I’ve read some literature on it.”

“Mmhmm, it could also be used in this way. It’s a kind of high-level enchantment, but the luck component is very significant. Based on the monster’s characteristics, we can roughly infer that this crystal is more suitable for use on a Shield. We’ll try it out later.” Li Yao put away the Demon Crystal and started searching again.

Little Turtle

Quality: Purple Epic

Level: 1

Health: 50

Armor: 15

Traits: Combat pet.

Battle Skill: Savage Bite

Additional Attributes Given to Master:

Swimming Expert: Increases Master’s swimming speed by 15%

Divine Turtle Armor: Increases Master’s armor by 1%

Turtle Shell Storage: Can store items for its master, 0/10 slots.

“So pets can also be like this. I bought a pet piglet from the auction house. Compared with this, it’s too inferior, it only adds 15 in Armor.” Dumbfounded Tongtong’s eyes were wide in disbelief.

Li Yao cradled the little turtle in his palm, saying, “Pets also have different qualities. Starting from excellent quality, each time the quality increases, another attribute is added. Moreover, even if they are the same species with the same quality, the added attributes are not necessarily the same, it all depends on luck. Mine is quite good.”

“Stop bluffing, this is already through the roof,” Guardian Angel said enviously.

“What does level 1 mean? Does that mean it can also help you in battle?” Da Vinci asked curiously.

“Of course not. There are two types of pets, one is decorative pets, like the piglet Tongtong bought. The other type is combat pets.” Li Yao explained…
