MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter Chapter 301 – Coughing Up Blood

Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Coughing Up Blood
The scene was overwhelmingly brutal now. Around Li Yao or the multi-headed snake, were scattered bodies. These bodies were horrifically gruesome.

Encased in a layer of frost, their bare skin was studded with crimson icicles, giving off a grotesque charm.

Frost explosion was a technique that sets off the blood frozen within the opponent’s body. The blast from within renders any armor useless and could even bring the mightiest tanks to their knees.

Add to that, the one casting this spell was a mid-level boss, a step or two above their level. Without the support of healing or shields, the only option left was to die.

This was Li Yao’s initial plan: disrupt the enemy’s healing, which was equivalent to paralyzing the enemy team.

Only this way could he find an opportunity to beat a bloody path, only this way could he have a chance to exhaust the strength of Prosperous Era.

Li Yao’s plan was simple; sabotage the healing system of the enemy, allow the multi-headed snake to eliminate a few players, and then escape.

If the key healers from Prosperous Era were collectively downgraded, the loss would be huge. And this was exactly Li Yao’s real objective.

But he didn’t expect that the multi-headed snake would be so powerful; even he could not foresee such a dramatic result.

Li Yao had forgotten that the game had just begun and everyone was still trying to understand the mechanics of the ancient gods. He had cut through a key link in the team’s chain and, with the unexpected assault of the multi-headed snake, it was impossible for Prosperous Era to make the correct judgment in such a short time.

Regardless of that, Li Yao’s chances of winning were exceedingly high. Prosperous Era was becoming frantic due to Li Yao’s attacks, and two of their key figures, Club President Nightfall and Vice President Elder Cousin of Prosperous Era, have been killed already.

Prosperous Era’s response was swift, breaking free from the long-range attacks of the Hawkman Skeleton and forming a protective barrier on the periphery. They were already initiating spells to counterattack the multi-headed snake.

The spells ‘Snake’s Breath’ and ‘Frost Explosion’ were in cooldown. The output of the Shadow Serpent was restricted and largely depended on Li Yao and Silver British Skeletons by his side.

Li Yao continuously targeted Prosperous Era’s players, shooting from behind the legs of the multi-headed snake. The reach of the Arrow Tower was quite long, but Prosperous Era was experienced and they positioned themselves strategically so that the Arrow Tower could not cause much damage with its piercing arrows.

Nevertheless, Li Yao’s damage output was tremendous. In particular, with the Rapid Shooting skill, he was firing Death Black Arrows that could one-hit kill the player, resulting in a Silver British Skeleton for Li Yao.

One by one, the players from Prosperous Era dropped dead, but the health of the multi-headed snake also plummeted quickly. Within a few seconds, under everyone’s attacks, the multi-headed snake was on the brink of death and finally collapsed.

This was the advantage of having the majority. Although it was currently seen as a pet, the multi-headed snake’s health didn’t scale with the number of players, its health was even less than the level 10 bosses from the main storyline.

Being bombarded by hundreds of long-range attacks, it was quite impressive for the snake to withstand a few rounds of attack.

Time Trace!

Whoosh…

The multi-headed snake regenerated in front of everyone’s eyes, infuriating the enraged players from Prosperous Era. The snake died once, and before they could even cheer, a new one appeared. The members of Prosperous Era felt like they were about to vomit blood from the frustration, it was as though they were being internally injured.

“Let’s show them who we are. Since they don’t dare to approach us, we will crush them.” Li Yao said loudly.

“Yes, my great master, hahaha, I am invincible.” The Ice Serpent roared with laughter.

“Keep clear, dodge its snowstorm skill, don’t get caught in its snowstorm or we’ll get blown up.” Prosperous Era’s Huasheng shouted.

The multi-headed snake’s body was huge. Although it seemed to move slowly, its strides were so big that it was actually quite fast.

As the multi-headed snake charged forward, the players from Prosperous Era began to scatter and dodge, thereby severely limiting their damage output.

The drifting snow around the multi-headed snake inhibited the functionality of the melee players from Prosperous Era. They didn’t dare to enter the snow-covered zone, terrified of dying from a frost explosion.

However, they had great numbers on their side. If they didn’t converge, it was impossible for the multi-headed snake to inflict significant area damage.

Although the rate of attack from Prosperous Era’s players had slowed down, the health of the multi-headed snake continued to decrease. Meanwhile, the Silver British Skeletons around Li Yao were held up by melee combat or blocked the ranged damage, which was significantly less powerful than the aerial Hawkman Skeletons.

But there was nothing Li Yao could do. After all, he was not a computer. He couldn’t possibly multitask to command each Hawkman Skeleton while maintaining his own. Otherwise, the Hawkman Skeleton wouldn’t have been trapped or killed by the melee combatants.

“Prairie Fire, your time is up,” Prosperous Era Huasheng sneered: “Lets see how many times you can go back in time.”

“Of course, only once.” Li Yao responded while attacking, “But you still won’t be able to kill me.”

“Stop bluffing, you are doomed.”

All the members of Prosperous Era believed that. The health bar of the multi-headed snake was finally almost depleted. Once the multi-headed snake died, Li Yao would be exposed.

“This should be it then.” Li Yao released a healing pet for the multi-headed snake, and its health began to recover slightly.

“Your struggles are meaningless.” Prosperous Era’s Huasheng cracked a smile.

“You guys always celebrate too early, let’s not forget, although you are not alone, am I just one person either.” Li Yao waved his hand and said, “That’s it. Get them.”

Shadow Dance launched a sneak attack on a spellcasting Mage, revealing his position and shouted, “Club President’s order, attack!”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

At that moment, tens of elite rogues chose a target and launched a sneak attack.

“Club President’s order, beat them when they’re down.”

Filled with morale, the elite rogues swiftly attacked the stunned target. On the other hand, Prosperous Era was confused. Huasheng’s face turned pale. Due to the impact of the Hawkman Skeletons and the multi-headed snake, all their defenses were in disarray. The Starfire Club took advantage of this breach.

As the attack on the multi-headed snake stopped abruptly and the snake’s life began to recover, Li Yao heaved a sigh and said: “There’s a fact that I didn’t know whether to tell you or not. If I do, I’m afraid I’d shatter your morale. If I don’t, I’d feel uncomfortable. Well, I think I’ll tell you. After I used the ‘go back in time’ feature, the cooldown of the multi-headed snake’s Frost Explosion did not reset. The time wasn’t enough.”

Ah…puke…

Huasheng felt a surge in his chest and everything before him went black. The blow was too heavy for him.

If Li Yao had overpowered them with raw strength, it would’ve been fine. Instead he used a bluff to deceive them. The most frustrating fact was that the melee fighters of Prosperous Era didn’t dare to step into the snow-covered zone out of fear of the frost explosion. Had they not been so afraid, the multi-headed snake would’ve already collapsed.

Of course, Li Yao was intentionally messing with them. There was still another AOE skill in the Shadow Serpent’s arsenal. Naturally, he wouldn’t resort to such empty bluster.

“I’ll fight you to the end.” Huasheng charged towards Li Yao, but upon entering the snow-covered zone, he was slowed down.

Li Yao’s arrow pierced through his throat, he mocked with disdain: “Do you really think someone like you could pick a fight with me?” Li Yao used a Magic Spider Silk to jump onto the multi-headed snake. While he targeted the nearby players, he shot back: “Kill them all.”

Ps: I’m so drunk, I wrote a thousand words and my laptop crashed, and I had to rewrite everything on my notebook. It feels so wrong, it’s like eating your own vomit, I’m so tired. Ahh, I also lost an update. The power went out intermittently, my laptop’s dead, sigh.
