Translator: 549690339
The special mechanism of the ancient God, the side instances are like the wilderness map before they are developed, the first to complete the pioneering task is considered to have completed the world event.
And the so-called world event will be recorded in the ancient God’s chronicle, unlike the projection instances, which are played by many people without any actual record.
Just like the Queen’s necklace task that Li Yao had, he was the first to submit a necklace, thus initiated an interaction with the queen.
However, the Queen’s necklace still appears in that place, they can continue to complete the task, but that would only be the queen’s projection, not the queen herself.
Currently, most players focus on the main storyline instances, unaware of the importance of world events, which can give them many unseen benefits, not just the visible rewards.
Li Yao found out that this instance is extremely difficult, had he not had various means from the start, he would have been wiped out long ago.
In his last life, he certainly discovered the situation here. However, he probably did not have the strength to pioneer it and continued dragging it until mid-game.
Of course, the gains and the dangers are directly proportional. Once this becomes a projection instance, the output here, in terms of quantity and quality, will be significantly reduced. Correspondingly, the difficulty of the monsters will also decrease, it won’t be as terrifying as it is now.
There were too many skeletons attacking the Long-Necked Dragon, although the dragon was brave, it still took a while to kill them all.
In just a short while, the snake-necked dragon had already lost half of its health, and Li Yao only had a dozen skeletons left.
“Fight for me, my offspring.”
Li Yao originally didn’t care, but then he saw a large number of small long-necked dragons climbing out of the lake. The Water Elemental Viscount was critically weak and could no longer move.
Li Yao retreated decisively, keeping the Melee Skeletons in front of him. Just like in the Sticky Hole, he kept the Silver British Skeletons on the spiral staircase, continuing his output from behind.
He marked the long-necked dragon cubs with Death Black Arrow, then had Death God 4000 and the Arrow Tower kill them in large numbers.
If this was in a wide area, Li Yao would certainly be overwhelmed by hundreds of long-necked dragon elite cubs, but considering the terrain, he kept the line steady. Using the Death Black Arrow, Li Yao’s Silver British forces grew again, quickly maintaining numbers into the hundreds.
The long-necked dragon boss was blocked at the back, only his Deadly Poison Bullet and Toxic Breath could cause significant damage to Li Yao and his Silver British ranks.
Because the Silver British Skeletons were being constantly replaced, these Silver British Skeletons were all born from the long-necked dragon cubs’ skeletons. Hence, they had inherent poison resistance. The Deadly Poison Bullet could kill them instantly, but the Toxic Breath was no longer lethal to the Silver British long-necked dragon cub skeletons.
Of course, the long-necked dragon’s attack could certainly instant-kill a frail character like Li Yao, but the problem is, Li Yao used a classic blocking technique to avoid boss attacks.
His block was twofold: using Death God 4000 and the Silver British Skeletons to block the spiral staircase, this stopped the long-necked dragon cubs from surrounding him. Otherwise, not even a hundred Silver British forces would be enough to save Li Yao, who would be trapped in the middle. Even if the cubs stopped attacking, the long-necked dragon boss could still attack Li Yao from above, after all, the long-necked dragon had a neck of at least ten yards when it straightened up. With Li Yao’s increasing output, the aggression would sooner or later turn to Li Yao, attacking from above was too easy.
From this boss’s properties, it doesn’t seem strong, but in reality, it’s absurdly strong.
Secondly, Li Yao used perspective blocking, that is, to dodge the boss’s breath and Deadly Poison Bullet.
Although he kept his distance, the long-necked dragon’s neck was long, so Li Yao was still within its range of attack.
But Li Yao’s position was on a spiral stone staircase. He could use Magic Spider Silk to quickly move to the lower step. After all, the spiral staircase had more than a dozen turns, Li Yao simply jumped to the next circle with Magic Spider Silk to escape and avoid the long-necked dragon’s attack.
Because the previous skeletons had been killed, there were only the long-necked dragon cub skeletons fighting the cubs, and Li Yao was the only one consistently dealing damage while continuously healing Death God 4000 and using Death Black Arrow to supplement the number of long-necked dragon bones.
This just delayed the death process of the long-necked dragon, but that was all. In Li Yao’s continuous output, the long-necked dragon eventually bellowed and fell.
“How could I die here… ”
With a dazed look in its eyes, the Long-Necked Dragon lost its life.
At the same time, a rainbow curtain flashed again.
“System: Prairie Fire has killed the level 16 Long-Necked Dragon boss, honour is bestowed, rewards all races within the camp with 100 reputation.”
The world channel went silent for a moment, not knowing how to express their admiration for Li Yao’s beastly performance. It took a while before a storm of impressions emerged.
“Beast.”
“Beast.”
“Beast.”
All the replies on the world channel were calling him a beast. It wasn’t too long since he had last killed a boss, less than three hours, and yet, he took down another boss. Nobody else had done this before.
They had deep understandings of how difficult the ancient God’s bosses were to kill. They couldn’t deny Li Yao’s strength nor knew how to crack it.
“Meow, is he even playing the same game as us? I am level 12 now, and I haven’t even killed a wilderness boss yet. How many has he killed by now?”
“Come on, cut the crap. There have been quite a few who’ve killed the wilderness boss’s by now, but they’re guilds who collectively kill them, or solo players who kill low-level bosses. There is only Prairie Fire who can solo kill same-level, or even higher-level bosses.”
“Are we just props to showcase the impressive feats of Prairie Fire?”
“What are you complaining about? Prairie Fire shared all his techniques online, it’s your problem if you can’t learn from it.”
“Is that even a technique that humans can master? If you can find someone who can use it, that would be impressive.”
“Practice it then. I definitely want to join Starfire Guild. I’ll definitely learn quicker with Prairie Fire’s guidance.”
“Yes, joining Starfire is definitely a shortcut, but damn it, I picked the wrong camp…”
“I was about to discuss our battle situation, and you’ve already killed another wilderness boss, spotting on, this is the type of exposure we need, don’t stop.” said Sister Li in the Elders channel.
“I didn’t deliberately expose myself.” Li Yao helplessly said, “Anyway, let’s talk about the situation.”
“Big brother, we won the battle.” said Dumb and Cute excitedly, “We eliminated two hundred people from the Prosperous Era.”
“This battle was very satisfying, nothing can kill me, hahaha.” After advancing to elite, Guardian Angel discovered the advantage of being a tank class, sustaining the fight without dying, it felt so refreshing.
However, Elder Sister sighed and said, “In terms of numbers and outcomes, we have, indeed, won this battle. But strategically speaking, we have suffered a great loss.”
“Sister Li is right.” Li Yao also saw through the essence of the matter…
