MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter Chapter 503 – Chapter 503: Chapter 503: The Second Boss

Chapter 503: Chapter 503: The Second Boss
 

“Big Brother, stop beating around the bush. What’s going on? Just tell us.” Dumb Daze passed the leftover items to Li Yao and urged him excitedly.

Li Yao smiled and said, “Do you guys remember the promotional video of ‘Ancient Gods’?

“Of course, it was the first animation that can be directly injected into the mind, allowing one to immerse oneself into it. It caused quite the sensation. It was that video that led me to beg Sister-in-Law for an adult account. Otherwise, I’d be stuck playing in the mud with those little brats from the Neutral Camp.” Dumb Daze replied.

“Just so. Then do you remember the Hunter in the video?” asked Li Yao.

“Absolutely, that Hunter was so cool. He handled a large bow engulfed in orange flames, his eyes as bright as the stars, and his body was cloaked in the illusion of a phoenix. With a single celestial arrow, he crossed countless distances and assassinated a God. It was so awesome that if it weren’t for the need to master archery and shooting techniques in the Free Mode, I would have become a Hunter myself.” Dumb Daze’s face was filled with excitement.

The other three’s faces changed, and Sister Lee asked incredulously, “Are you saying, this skill…?”

Li Yao nodded and said, “This is a gear assembly skill that can only be learned from multiple skill books. The skill ‘Tyrant God Sniper Kill’ only contains the character for ‘Tyrant’. The other skills are likely to be separately titled ‘God’, ‘Sniper’ and ‘Kill’. If we can gather all these skill books, we will be able to learn this game-breaking skill.”

“So by your logic, the Ice Mage’s ‘Thousand Miles Ice Seal, Ten Thousand Snowflakes Drift’, would that also be such a skill?” Sister Lee immediately thought of the scene where the Ice Mage from the promotional video crystallized everything.

“If I guessed correctly, it should be. According to the book, such skills are forbidden due to their excessive power, and that’s why they’re scattered. The ‘Ice Sealing Thousand Miles’ you mentioned is probably a super taboo curse. It requires assembling skill books to form a complete forbidden skill.” Li Yao explained.

Li Yao did not go into too much detail, giving just a rough overview, but it was enough to shock them all.

In his past life, Li Yao saw too much. These godlike skills were very familiar to him.

Before his rebirth, various forbidden skills became the main topic of discussion, but based on what Li Yao knew, out of twenty billion people, fewer than five learned real forbidden skills.

They all without exception became top-notch super gamers. Some people managed to gather more than half of the skills, but they never managed to complete the collection.

There was also a small group who managed to acquire one or two basic and common skill branches. Most gamers had only heard of forbidden skills and never even seen any branch skills.

Thinking about this, Li Yao suddenly realized something.

In his past life, many players had discovered some skills inadvertently, which they later sold without realizing that they were forbidden skills. When they found out, the price of those skills had increased ten thousand times, leading them to wallow in regret.

Since Li Yao has now found a branch of a forbidden skill, it’s unlikely that he’s the only one with such luck. More people will likely discover them. Even though they are the most basic and common branches, their value is immeasurable.

“Sister Lee, pay attention. After we finish clearing the area, gather more information and keep an eye on the auction house. If you come across other branch forbidden skills, make sure to buy them. These things can’t be measured with money.” Li Yao had a crazy idea. If every core member of Starfire Guild could learn one complete forbidden skill, no enemy would stand a chance.

“Okay, I’ll treat it like a priority.” Sister Lee also thought of the same problem.

“If that’s the case, then our team…” Unparalleled Witch also thought of the competition.

“For now, it’s enough that just the few of us know.” Feng Yi said.

The group, including Dumb Daze, nodded silently, stupefied by the scenarios they were imagining.

“We’ve got the quest item. The rest are gemstones and money, which we can directly stash in the warehouse.” Li Yao handed the money and gemstones to Sister Lee and led the way outside.

Soon, they arrived back at the Natural Ancient Tree.

“You’re back so soon. Did you not find the cave, or were you just not strong enough to defeat the creatures lurking within? Don’t worry, although my power is dwindling, I can still bless you with a little boost.” The ancient tree’s elderly voice spoke.

Li Yao took out the quest item and said, “No need, the monster was just too weak, it was hardly a challenge.”

“That’s wonderful, without that creature, our power won’t drain so rapidly.” The Ancient Tree rejoiced. “Here is your reward.”

Li Yao also smiled and said, “Could you point out the location of your next companion?”

“Sure, take this item with you. It can be used to exchange for some help from our leader. But, you should use it when facing the Priest.” The Ancient Tree handed over another unknown seed to Li Yao.

Li Yao nodded, and the team immediately set out for their next destination.

The Starfire Guild’s cleanup operation went smoothly. By noon the next day, the task was completed. Afterwards, all the members of Starfire gathered together and found a monster-rich area to start grinding for Crystals.

When Li Yao called for a break, the number of Crystal Cores in his backpack had exceeded twenty thousand. Although he was still unsatisfied, it was time according to his plan, and Li Yao did not want to waste any more time here.

The next day, they gathered at the Natural Ancient Tree to prepare the activation of the Barrier.

Everyone sat in a circle, and Li Yao asked, “Feng Yi, can you give us an update on the progress of other guilds?”

Feng Yi nodded and said, “Based on the intelligence I have, aside from us, only the Devil Alliance and ‘Sky’s The Limit’ are progressing rapidly. The Devil Alliance has cleared three outposts, and ‘Sky’s The Limit’ will probably finish their third one today. The others are basically still clearing their second outpost. As for smaller guilds, most can’t even take down one outpost.”

“The Devil Alliance has the advantage of equipment, so it’s understandable that they’ve taken down the most outposts. However, now that three days have passed, the time-limited equipment from Devil Alliance has expired, and their progress will probably slow down.” Unparalleled Witch added.

Sister Lee nodded and said, “Looks like they’re not much of a threat to us. If you feel like we don’t have enough Crystals, shall we grind for another day?”

“No need,” Li Yao shook his head and replied, “Even if we grind for another day, we won’t reach fifty thousand. We can’t achieve my original plan with that, so we’ll have to resort to a backup plan. Okay, let’s all have a meal and rest up. We’ll start on the second boss right after.”…
