MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Kill if You Disagree

On TV, Tina smiled. “Master Liao Yuan just said that he’d figured out a way, what do you think?”

“He can get on the third platform that no one else could while clearing out the Elite mobs along the way. There’s nothing much for me to say anymore,” KB said helplessly.

Tina covered her mouth, trying to hide her smile. “It seems like you’re now more cautious with the words that come out of your mouth.”

“Not being cautious won’t do well for me, I’ve suffered enough embarrassment for today. From now onward, I believe there will never be anything that’s impossible again.” KB sighed, “Actually, when the game was first advertised, it was always emphasized that the game is in an open setting, but not many people cared. Now, Liao Yuan has given these people a vivid lesson. After today, it’s possible that Liao Yuan will disappear from our sight, and it’s almost impossible that he will get on other class competitions anymore. But today, he’s the main star, and it is a pity that too many people missed the chance to watch his live performance. Otherwise, more people would have fallen in love with this game.”

“Yeah, that’s pretty unfortunate.” Tina was also gloomy, her influence on this show was ultimately limited, and she was also a newcomer hostess. Otherwise, she would not have asked him to host shows like this that did not garner much attention.

On the dome.

“What? You thought of a new solution so quickly?” AdorkableTong was speechless.

“No wonder he’s our big boss!” ShadowDancer exclaimed.

“My fans can’t help but ask you, what’s your new solution?” Qin Fengyi asked.

“It’s not really much of a brilliant idea, but it involves a common sense problem that we face in real life.” Li Yao walked to the other bottom side of the stage and dunked his ropes into the water. “In real life, ropes will be much tougher after being soaked in water. World of Ancient Gods strives to be realistic, so maybe this approach will work for my case.”

“Ah, but this solution sounds a little shallow. We’re in a virtual game after all, they won’t make the game so realistic, would they?” Tong was not so convinced by the plan.

“I haven’t tested this out yet, so I’m not sure either, but we have to try it out. Besides, we have nothing to lose, and I’m still very confident with the operation I planned out earlier. Even if it doesn’t work, I’m not going to fall to my death, so why not? It’s a worthwhile experiment. Let’s take a step back, even if it doesn’t work, I’ll return to the city to get other tools instead,” said Li Yao. He was already dipping the rope in the clear lake water.

Right at this moment, Li Yao heard a voice that annoyed him. “Yo, isn’t that the master Liao Yuan? Did his stage clearance fail? Is he attempting to throw himself into the lake to commit suicide? Please don’t be so gullible, you lost to our challenge and all you have to do is apologize to us on the internet. Don’t be so desperate, and stop trying to gain sympathy from others.”

Li Yao looked up and saw GetawayThirdBro, he lowered his head and pretended to not see him. “Are you blind, when did I even fail? It was just a bit of an accident. Though, I heard that members of Getaway Studios tried the Level 5 stages but failed to even get past the second platform.” Li Yao replied blandly.

“Hmph, we might not be able to get past, but at least we relied on our capabilities and strength. Unlike you, trying to please the audience with rubbish tactics. Let me tell you this once, you better put aside your ridiculous circus stunts. Your theatrics will not gain you the main spotlight,” said GetawayThirdBro cockily.

Without batting an eye at ThirdBro, Li Yao took out the ropes from the water and placed them into his backpack. “Everyone knows who here is the real clown, you and I both know who was right and who was wrong since the very beginning. Cut the crap talk and wipe that smirk off your face you son of a b*tch. You were saying that I’m clamoring for attention? What a joke. Please do me a favor, keep your sh*t to yourself, take a piss elsewhere and reflect on yourself through your piss puddle. What even are you?”

“What did you say to me?” ThirdBro was furious. He lost his position as the captain of the regiment, and his status had obviously degraded by a lot, which was quite depressing to see. After he had seen Li Yao made a mistake during his stage clearance progress, he purposely came to see Li Yao to taunt him, but he did not expect Li Yao to be so arrogant. “You imbecile, you must really want to die!”

The pistol in Li Yao’s left hand fired without any warning. With a bang, a large bullet struck into ThirdBro’s knee. He got down on one knee in front of Li Yao.

“Let me send you away.”

Li Yao took a step forward and stabbed ThridBro’s throat with the rapier in his hand, then he pulled it out with great force.

Blood splattered everywhere…

ThirdBro tried to cover his throat as he made a gurgling sound, his eyes were filled with disbelief.

“You dropped to Level 1 and you should’ve focus on leveling up yourself, instead you came to me trying to make a scene. I’ve never seen such a deadbeat person, maybe it’s better for you to get back to Level 0 and turn over a new leaf.”

Li Yao hung the pistol and rapier back onto his waist. When he turned around, ThridBro’s body fell onto the ground.

Whew…

Players from Getaway Studios who were guarding the Level 5 corridor were originally having fun hip-hopping and pointing at Li Yao, but no one expected Li Yao to be this brutal and kill right in front of them.

They were all stunned for a moment, it was not until Li Yao had turned around and was headed back to the Level 10 stage that they came back to their senses. They took out their weapons, ready for revenge.

“Come back here! This is already embarrassing enough.” LeadingBro’s face was gloomy when he stopped the crowd.

“But… he killed ThirdBro!” GetawayRogue argued.

“I said stop whatever you’re doing! ThirdBro mocked and provoked him, he deserved to be killed for that.” LeadingBro replied coldly.

LeadingBro was infuriated, he was both angry at ThirdBro for not knowing how to behave, and angry at Li Yao for not giving face to Getaway Studios. But this matter was originally ThirdBro’s fault. If Getaway Studios were to take action now, their reputation would be ruined. He knew very well that Summer was on air and TV stations were broadcasting their livestream. He knew that many people were anticipating that they would fight back against Li Yao.

“Hey bud, even though ThirdBro is at fault, isn’t it a bit too much for you to kill him?” LeadingBro shouted at Li Yao while trying to contain his anger. Regardless of whether he should take action or not, he still had to remain his composure.

Unfortunately, Li Yao did not buy in to his attempt at all, he continued walking. “Whether it is too much or not, you know it well yourself. I’m going to get past the final platform to fight the Boss now, get your bets ready, I’ll be here to collect them in just a while.”

“Alright, I’ll wait.”

Leading Bro gritted his teeth, his eyes were even colder.

The audience in front of the TV and those watching the livestream went crazy.

“Liao Yuan, you’re truly 666666[1].”

“Killing just because he disagrees, such dominance.”

“I know right. Does Liao Yuan have a girlfriend? I’m a cute and lovable girl.”

“I’ve never seen such a deadbeat b*stard, his death is well-deserved.”

“That’s right, who do Getaway Studios think they are? Trying to act all cool, they deserve death.”

“So, it turns out that you can kill someone that way. I’ve learned something new today.”

“He even had to kneel down in front of him before dying, how embarrassing.”

The incident of Getaway Studios attempting to steal Liao Yuan’s Boss kill was clear in everyone’s mind. GetawayThirdBro was simply a douchebag that was hated by the masses.

***

It took KB a while to process everything that had happened. “Liao Yuan’s character is simply brutal.”

“Not only did he look cool, his dominance….” Tina said to herself.

KB. “…”

***

“Big Brother, that’s so cool!” Tong waved her fist and said, “I’ve never seen such a shameless person before. He tried to steal your Boss kill, failed, and now he’s looking down on others. What a douchebag!”

“Getaway Studios is being too disrespectful. Once I’ve got the time, I’m going to have some fun with them.” ShadowDancer gripped on the dagger in his hand tightly.

“You better be careful, LeadingBro is not a simple person.” Due to the live broadcast that was still on, Fengyi tried to express her words vaguely.

But Li Yao still understood what she meant. Getaway Studios would not let up that easily.

Still, Li Yao did not care. He climbed to the first platform through the rope. “I know, let’s quickly clear out the stage and get it done as soon as possible.”

In just a split second, Li Yao had reached the top of the second dome. Tong helped him to wring the water out of the rope, she was amazed while looking at the water dripping from the top of the dome.

“It’s so well done! They even drip like real water droplets and they feel cold and icy, exactly like water in real life!”

“Alright, fun time’s over. Help me to coil the rope, and remember, make sure it doesn’t get tangled up when I throw it out.” Li Yao reminded her.

“Got it, got it.” Tong carefully coiled the rope in her hand and handed it to Li Yao.

“The rope may be soaked with water and its toughness will increase, but that also means that its weight should increase by a lot too. Will it really work?” Fengyi scrunched up her brows.

“It should be fine.” Li Yao felt his pulse and began. “Alright, I’ll start now.”

Li Yao had his attention focused on the platform. He was waiting for the next patrolling Arcane Guardian to come over to the edge.

After a minute of waiting, finally, an Arcane Guardian walked to the edge.

Li Yao used Back Leap and was forty yards away from the dome, then he turned abruptly and pulled the trigger of his heavy crossbow.

Bang…

The steel arrow accurately struck the neck of the Arcane Guardian, and with a squeaky, unpleasant metallic friction sound, Li Yao fell downward and swung the rope at the same time.

When he was nearing the bottom of the platform, he tossed a Snake Trap. The snake trap coiled around the pillar and tied into a knot.

The Arcane Guardian was dragged downward by the great force and fell off the platform, emitting a loud roar.

Everyone was focused and had their attention glued to Li Yao, they were waiting to see if Li Yao could succeed this time.

Creak…

Li Yao grabbed the water-soaked rope. Due to the strong inertia, the rope made a squeaky sound again.

Everyone’s hearts jumped and were now stuck at their throats, they saw the rope starting to break and it made a ripping sound.

Just when everyone thought that he was going to fail again, the rope stopped breaking. Li Yao was still hanging on the rope, swinging.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief. It was a success this time, and they once again saw a hint of miracle that indicated that they could indeed finish the stage.

Li Yao, however, climbed up quickly. When he finally got on the platform, he realized that the rope had broken in half. He estimated that he probably could not hold on to the rope for much longer.

“Big Bro, you’re really amazing!” Tong cheered.

Li Yao took out his Heavy Crossbow again and shot out an arrow. The steel arrow struck the second platform and made a clanking sound. ShadowDancer was busy grabbing the rope and he tied it to a pillar. Now, the second and third platforms were linked by a rope bridge.

“So, what’s next? What are we supposed to do?” Fengyi asked with a smile, she was clearly in a good mood.

“You guys don’t have to do anything, just stay there and gain Exp points. Leave the rest to me.” Li Yao saw that an Elite was already facing his way, it was apparent that the patrol route he had simulated had saved him till this point.
