MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Kick!

This is the thief’s main interruption skill, and it’s not difficult to perform. It’s one of the most cost-effective skills. The typical low-cost skill has infinite benefits once you master it.

To obstruct the second thief from reaching the third platform, Dumpling did not deal with the thief who was bound by the Flame Totem. Even though the thief was slowed down, the distance between them was very short. Just as

Dumpling was about to release her second spell, the thief kicked at her chest.

Dumpling’s second spell was interrupted, and she rolled over.

Bone spear!

Feng Yi’s Bone Spear shot towards the thief, but this thief was obviously very skillful.

Shadow Step!

The Bone Spear only pierced through his shadow, causing no harm to him.

He disappeared in an instant, then appeared again behind Feng Yi.

If hit by a thief’s series of attacks, a brittle-class character like Feng Yi couldn’t stand it at all.

However, his luck ended there, just as his dagger was about to touch Feng Yi’s back of the head.

Another dagger glowing green had already plunged into his back of the head.

Ambush!

Shadow Dance appeared behind the thief and used Ambush, causing at least three seconds of dizziness.

Backstab!

-28-29

Shadow Dance’s daggers became blurred, stabbing violently into the thief’s back, spewing a significant amount of blood.

Rupture!

-38

What followed were constant normal attacks on his vital parts, and Feng Yi also reacted, using Toxic Nova.

A ring of green magical bullets exploded from her body. With Shadow Dance’s poison and bleeding effects, damage numbers appeared above the thief’s head.

-2-5-6-3-5-6-4-8-5…

Feng Yi stepped forward two steps to clear space, while Shadow Dance’s figure had already reached the front of the thief.

Kidney shot!

A thief who had just come around was immediately dazed again. Even though the dizziness effect of Kidney Shot wasn’t as good as Ambush, it had already decided his fate.

A Lightning Arrow and a Bone Spear pierced into the thief’s body. The thief immediately fell to the ground while his soul turned into a white light and disappeared.

“Big brother, be careful, a thief has already reached you,” Dumplings said worriedly.

The rope bridge was now broken, it would be impossible for them to help at the moment.

“I know, pull up the ropes from the upper and lower channels, cut off the rope bridges between the first and second platforms. If they want to take advantage, they should be prepared to resurrect without a body,” Li Yao politely advised while carefully dealing with the boss.

“I got it,” Dumplings grumbled, “That guy who fell got lucky.”

Shadow Dance looked gloomy and said, “He won’t get lucky. I will trap him.”

Guarding a thief’s body after death wasn’t simple, but Shadow Dance was full of confidence.

After a character dies and his soul can’t locate his body, he could only resurrect in the cemetery. In this case, he would lose an extra level of experience and become weak for a full day.

“Help me check and see what the identity of the thieves who fought with you is, ” Li Yao said again. His heart was flaming with anger; few guilds would disrupt others’ public work, so Li Yao hadn’t been prepared.

“What’s there to check, it’s definitely the Free Roaming Studio,” Dumplings said with eyes full of anger.

“Check first, ” Feng Yi also suspected it was the Free Roaming Studio.

In front of the TV and in the live-stream chat, the audience was enraged, cursing at the shameless thieves.

“I memorized the IDs of the two thieving grandsons. One is ‘Kill you without negotiation’, the other one is ‘Killing you’.”

“Me too, what the hell. This is an official conquest match. They dare to ambush.

Doesn’t the official care?”

“Report them.”

“Yes, report them for disrupting the match.”

The people in the chatroom were excited and condemned the thieves.

No matter what was going on outside, Li Yao had no time to care about it. After all, this map was open. As it hadn’t been cleared for the first time, it didn’t count as a dungeon. Anybody could come to this public map.

For example, the Free Roaming Studio was clearing a Level 5 dungeon across from them. But many players were guarding the hallway down below, to protect the conquest team above from being disturbed.

Once the first clearance of the branch dungeon was complete, a dungeon door would appear the next day. At that time, only their team could enter the Mirror Space. The first time one clears a dungeon, a lot of uncertainties exist, so generally, people would guard the entrance to the dungeon.

Li Yao, looking at the almost spotless hall, slightly frowned. In such a situation, it wouldn’t be easy to spot a lurking thief, especially since he was dealing with a boss seven levels higher than him.

Furthermore, this thief’s patience was extraordinarily good. He didn’t seem to have any intention of attacking. This was the smartest approach, waiting for the optimal time to attack on one hand, and on the other hand, causing great mental pressure on Li Yao. A thief in stealth mode was the most formidable and frightening.

“Swing Kill will activate in five seconds.”

Li Yao was quietly calculating the boss’ skill cooldown, when he realized he had reached the edge of the stairs.

With a leap, Li Yao crossed the stairs, trusting his judgment that the rogue was already in the hall. By luring the boss down, he could make the rogue move again, giving him a chance to find him.

Li Yao landed quickly, not far from the Sun King Statue in the center of the platform.

The boss, transformed into a monstrous spider, spat a thread of spider silk that stuck to the top of the hall, its huge body swinging irregularly like a pendulum.

Previously, Li Yao had interrupted its attack before it could jump. This time, though, he didn’t take action. Instead, he merely dodged the boss, which was like a small mountain of flesh.

Li Yao concluded that as long as the boss remained on the stairs, the rogue would not dare to come down.

To confirm this, he specifically released a volley of Arrow Rain on the left side of the stairs and set up both a Poisonous Snake Trap and a Spike Trap on the right.

Without the rogue showing up, his judgment was proven.

He then quickly deployed an Exploding Sheep, directing it to move away from himself.

Then he saw the boss swinging towards him. He squinted his eyes and a crossbow appeared in his hand.

He quickly pulled the trigger. A steel arrow hit the spider silk, which was already about to snap from the tension. With the impact of the steel arrow, the thread snapped, and the boss’ huge body involuntarily flew towards Li Yao like a shooting star.

Li Yao quickly did two Shadow Rolls to escape from his original position.

Boom, boom, boom…

Like a meteor striking the earth, the boss hit the Sun King Statue behind Li Yao with intensity.

“Bloody hell, is he even human?”

Without requiring any commentary, all the spectators were able to see that Li Yao could hit distant spider silk with a crossbow bolt in an instant. Although the spider silk was thick, it was not thicker than the steel arrow itself. It was mind-blowing how he managed to secure a hit from such a distance.

“Which ancient archery is the best?” “When it comes to archery, I respect no one but Li Yao.”

“Incredible, is he an athlete or what?”

“Shut up! The rogue still hasn’t shown up!”

The boss, after crashing into the Sun King Statue, was dizzy and paralyzed on the ground, with little stars circling above its head. It was clear to see the boss was in a stupefied state.

The Sun King Statue was smashed into fragments. Li Yao quickly made another Shadow Roll to get to the intact arm part of the Sun King, grabbed two handfuls of stone dust, almost unnoticed by anyone, and put the Sun King’s arm into his backpack.

“Finally got it.’

Li Yao didn’t reveal any emotions. He quickly threw the stone dust into the air, and it showered down.

Li Yao kept his eyes on the stairs. Suddenly, he noticed that the falling stone dust seemed to be landing on something.

Without hesitation, Li Yao deployed an Arrow Tower, an arrow immediately shot out.

With a ding, the rogue’s dagger deflected the steel arrow.

The rogue’s figure appeared. He didn’t wear a mask, and his face was filled with shock and disbelief.

However, he soon regained his composure. His eyes sparkled with a cold light, and his figure instantly became blurred.

Without a second thought, Li Yao gripped the pistol in his left hand, turned around, and shot.

Bang…

The rogue, who had just appeared behind Li Yao with dagger raised, suddenly knelt on one knee.

“You, trying to kill me? Too naive, kid.”

Li Yao was ruthless. His right-hand’s sword struck like a venomous snake into the rogue’s artery, and he swiftly drew it out.

Splat…

-250

Blood splattered. The rogue collapsed to the ground, a face full of humiliation and reluctance.

“Turns out he’s just a moron.”

Li Yao didn’t even glance at the corpse. He casually put the rogue’s fallen dagger into his backpack. Then he began to attack the boss, who was still in a stupor. It was as if he had just done something trivial.

“Damn, he actually did it.”

“Can someone teach me how Li Yao figured out the rogue’s location?”

“You fool, didn’t you notice the change when the stone dust fell?”

“They say that rogues are the bane of hunters. But why does it seem like the opposite in Li Yao’s case?”

“This move is so cool. So that’s how hunters can fight against rogues. Now I know how to deal with rogues.”

“You know nothing. Do you think it’s easy how Li Yao just took down the rogue like killing a chicken? And he did it while keeping a perfect health in the boss fight. You won’t make it, even if you know the strategy.”

“Classic ‘If I were in his shoes’ thinking.”

“This time, he’s got it. Looking forward to the boss’s loot.”
