MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter Chapter 349 – Battle between the Old and New

Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Battle between the Old and New
The entire arena was in an uproar as everyone turned to look at Li Yao as if he were a monster.

Those words were indeed shocking, Illusion God was a legendary figure of a generation, even the current top professional players wouldn’t dare to claim they could defeat him.

However, Li Yao was making such boastful claims, reaching the pinnacle of arrogance.

“Damn it, who do you think you are?”

“We know you like to show off, but your claim to defeat Illusion God is too much.”

“Really now, you’re just a newcomer, haven’t even stepped into the professional circle yet, and you shamelessly claim you can beat Illusion God, I don’t know if you’re ignorant or just too arrogant.”

Li Yao’s simple statement seemed to ignite a barrel of gunpowder, even the neutral bystander gamers began to launch attacks on Li Yao. The entire arena was filled with voices condemning Li Yao.

However, Illusion God showed no signs of anger, his gaze still calm, he said, “You’re very arrogant, but you’ve earned the right to be. However, you’re too young, too impulsive. If you continue like this, you’ll end up at a disadvantage in the future.”

Li Yao shook his head and said, “I never make empty boasts. I wouldn’t have claimed so if I hadn’t been certain.”

“Certainty, in this world, is there ever an absolute certainty?” Illusion God sighed.

“You are skilled, and I’m sure you have a deep understanding of this game, but this game is different, that’s my certainty.” Li Yao didn’t want to elaborate further.

He knew that he had been reborn and the skills of the God-level and Quasi-god-Level players from the past were infinitely better than those of the current professional players.

Is Illusion God strong? Undoubtedly. But his strength was relative to the current players. Excluding Li Yao, Illusion God was indeed one of the strongest. Not only in Hua Xia but even within the global realm, there wouldn’t be many who could match him.

If it were the Li Yao from his past life at this point in time, he would not be a match for Illusion God.

But the Li Yao now was no longer the same Li Yao.

“Very good, very good.” Illusion God showed a slight smile, a smile that concealed resignation, relief, and satisfaction, “Then I’d like to see your hand.”

“Whether you see my hand is not up to me, it depends on how strong you are.” Li Yao took a deep breath and regained his composure.

“Before we start, I want to make it clear. I have no personal grudges with you. I’m forced to make a move this time. I know it’s wishful thinking, but I hope we see this as a friendly spar, and that there’s no animosity between us regardless of the outcome.” Illusion God said slowly.

“If Illusion God wants to be friends with me, I’m naturally thrilled.” Li Yao said with a smile, “I’ve already mentioned that this is the main arena, I welcome anyone to challenge me. I wish for someone to defeat me and wake me up from this dream.”

Illusion God didn’t understand the implication of the last line, but he recognized Li Yao’s carefree attitude and nodded in agreement, “Good, indeed you’ve got a lot of courage. I’m known as Illusion God, I may have retired a long time ago, but I still hold a certain influence in the e-sports circle. Today, if you lose, it means that your skills are inferior. But if you win, you will rise to fame by stepping over me.”

Illusion God was indeed famous, he was like a retired unparalleled master. Even though he disappeared for a while, but now that he’s appeared again, no one dared to underestimate such an unparalleled master.

News of Illusion God’s arrival, let alone the commentators, attracted even many influential e-sports TV stations to send people.

The number of people coming to the arena was increasing every moment, they were not preparing to compete, but they were commentators and journalists, setting up their cameras, ready to broadcast this competition.

Not only in other places, even the number of people in Feng Yi’s live broadcast room skyrocketed. The ten-plus TV stations from the Hua Xia region, as well as several TV stations from other administrative zones, began live broadcasting in a short span of time.

Originally, this was a fight between Starfire Guild and other guilds with whom they held grudges, but because of Illusion God’s arrival, the nature of this competition completely changed.

The TV stations, unfamiliar commentators, and journalists hyped up the fight to draw in people, treating it as an absolute collision between a legendary veteran and a rookie king.

Seeing the audience’s enthusiasm, Li Yao fully understood, but he didn’t care, he still said in front of the countless spectators, “I think it will be the latter kind, but that’s not what I want.”

Li Yao was confident that with his skills, he would create a legend in due time, and he felt no need to step on others to make a name for himself.

But Illusion God saw it differently and continued, “I spoke so much just to attract these reporters and TV stations. If you are truly as strong as you claim, there’s no harm in stepping on me to rise. But I hope you understand one thing, I won’t show mercy in this fight. Hopes are hopes, but the competition is sacred. I will give it my all and I hope you would as well.”

“Then let’s start, I guess they can’t wait any longer.” Li Yao clicked confirm and said, “Still, whether or not you see my hand, it depends on your understanding of the game.”

Ah, Pff…

The spectators and commentators who were watching were going crazy. Bah, these lines should have been said by Illusion God, shouldn’t the rookie be a little humble? This scene contradicts the usual script and style.

Many fans of Illusion God were dumbfounded, this was just too comical.

In their view, although Prairie Fire was strong, he was just a rookie at the beginning of his journey, calling him a rookie king would be an exaggeration. How could such a person be compared with Illusion God, and even dare to talk so strongly? It’s simply an act of seeking death.

Illusion God seemed to be an ordinary man in his thirties, but as soon as the countdown to the competition began, his calm aura suddenly turned sharp. His eyes no longer reflected the previous complexity and laziness, instead, they became sharp and aggressive.

Although it was the same person, the aura he radiated was like that of a completely different individual.

“Let’s begin then.”

As Illusion God clicked Start, his cloak came undone, revealing a mage robe with a skeleton on it.

In his hand, there was a single-handed staff made from an unknown animal spine, shimmering with green light. In his left hand, he held a bone shield composed of various bones that emitted soul-shattering screams. Ghosts were swirling around him from the shield, clearly a damage reduction skill.

Illusion God swung his hand, throwing a purple gleaming weapon. The ground immediately started to shake and a huge Iron Stone Demon with red light flickering appeared.

This move alone caused an outcry, Illusion God threw a level ten purple weapon.

A level one Iron Stone Demon could be summoned, but a level two Iron Stone Demon required materials and depending on the materials, the quality of the summoned Stone Demon varied…
