MMORPG: DIVINE MECH HUNTER

Chapter 802: Chapter 802: First-Class Merit

All the Lizardmen present were bewildered. They knew well this was a racial war; there was simply no room for betrayal.

Whether NPCs or players from either side, they had already merged fully with their original factions. There was no possibility of treachery.

Moreover, there wasn’t enough time. Even if someone wanted to attempt such a thing now, it was too late to make any arrangements.

So there was absolutely no need to guard against one’s own people, nor was it necessary.

Yet despite that, their commander was killed, and tens of thousands were transported onto this city fragment.

“Kill them, take over this fragment,” they hesitated, but Li Yao did not.

Following Li Yao’s order, hundreds of Dark Hunters were given the command to attack. They were exhilarated, finding themselves on the enemy’s city in such an unimaginable way.

A fierce battle erupted immediately, and the Lizardmen reacted, launching a frantic counterattack, hoping to annihilate them.

“Tung Tung, Skyrocket Cannon,” Li Yao turned and shouted to Tung Tung, who was continuously casting spells.

“Got it,” Tung Tung promptly took out a huge firework and lit it, releasing a green Skeletal pattern that exploded across the sky.

The Skyrocket Cannon, a special signal of distress given to Li Yao by the Queen, was intended for use during pivotal or crucial moments, allowing for the mobilization of tens of thousands of Dark Hunters to aid him if the conditions were suitable.

Li Yao was well aware that under the current shortage of troops, it was best to avoid using the signal unless absolutely necessary, as it could disrupt the Queen’s plans. But he believed that using it now would be a great achievement.

“My Queen, look over there,” a Banshee pointed towards the sky.

“Go check,” the Queen frowned slightly, puzzled as to why there would be a signal over the enemy’s city fragment.

She was currently troubled by the appearance of these city fragments, which rained down like airborne fortresses, wreaking havoc in the sky and causing substantial casualties among the players. Given her already insufficient military strength, continuously being on the defensive would be problematic.

She was contemplating how to seize these types of city fragments, not only to secure the high ground but more importantly, to set up Arrays and disrupt the enemy city’s integrity.

However, she had sent Dark Hunters to take over one, but the enemy’s firepower was too fierce. Moreover, since Dark Hunters could not fight while bearing Skeletons in their incomplete form, the cost of seizing it was too great. She could not afford to sacrifice too many Dark Hunters for this.

Dark Hunters, who had been loyal to her even in life, swore undying allegiance even in their Undead Form. She couldn’t bring herself to make that decision.

“My Queen, Prairie Fire has taken ten thousand men onto the opposing floating city fragment. A fierce battle for control is underway, but Prairie Fire’s side is clearly at a disadvantage,” the Banshee quickly returned.

The Queen was overjoyed, yet her expression remained composed: “Issue my order, all Dark Hunters prepare to help Prairie Fire secure this fragment.”

Then, the Queen vanished in a flash, and moments later, she appeared beside Li Yao: “How did you manage this?”

Li Yao startled upon seeing the Queen, then relaxed and replied while continuing to fight, “Do you remember the transformation flute you gifted me, Mentor? Look at them.”

The Queen saw several dozen Lizardmen joining Li Yao’s formation, fighting against the aggressively attacking Lizardmen.

“So it was the Descendants. You truly bring me surprises. This time, you have certainly earned a great credit,” the Queen said as she drew a black Long Bow.

Everyone then saw a barrage of black Arrows shooting forth, forming a dark barrage.

Large swathes of Lizardmen fell, then these corpses exploded into strong skeletons.

Some of Starfire’s players checked and found that these skeletons were all boss-level for the faction.

As the skeletons rose and joined the battle, the situation suddenly reversed. The skeletons summoned by the queen were too strong,

the Lizardmen’s formation collapsed in an instant. Although the Lizardmen saw the queen, she was layered with protection, making it impossible for them to attack her.

Then squads of bat knights also appeared, constantly attacking around these fragments.

Facing the pincer attack, the Lizardmen could have managed if their commander were still alive, but with the commander down, they were utterly lost. Some wanted to do this, others wanted to do that, resulting in complete chaos.

A quarter of an hour later, all the Lizardmen had been slain. In an instant, tens of thousands of Lizardmen died, as if in a dream.

“Instructor, please plant the Undead Battle Flag,” Li Yao bowed.

The queen waved her hand, “This is your achievement, I will not contend with you. Plant the flags.”

Li Yao nodded and planted two flags, one the Guild Battle Flag of Starfire, the other the Undead Battle Flag.

A crimson light curtain shone in the eyes of all the players.

“System: Under the astute command of Prairie Fire, the Starfire Legion has seized a corner of the Lizardman City, boosting morale. The overall morale of the Lizardmen decreases by 10% (both attack and defensive power decrease by 10%), morale of all undead legions increases by 10%, all members of the Starfire Legion gain the title ‘Leading the Charge’ (morale increase 15%), Starfire Legion is noted for first-class merit.”

Whoosh…

Everyone went crazy, especially those from Flaming Red Lips who had already climbed onto the city walls. They had secured a corner of the wall and were slowly expanding their advantage, aiming to take over the city wall and then the western district of the city, but Starfire had snatched the first merit point.

The 200,000 players following Li Yao were overjoyed, as the first-class merit of the legion was not just for Li Yao alone, but for everyone, and they too could receive substantial rewards.

Many were incredibly thankful that they had joined under the command of Starfire.

The audience was speechless, thinking, “Damn, these 200,000 are just too lucky. While everyone else is fighting desperately with heavy casualties, they haven’t done much yet and already have a first-class merit.”

“These 10,000 Dark Hunters, I am entrusting to you now. I give you one and a half hours. Within that time, each of them must possess over a thousand skeletons. If you can accomplish that, I will count it as a great merit for you. Then, having thwarted the enemy’s scheme, making you a junior Military Governor is not impossible,” the queen said.

Li Yao’s eyes sparkled, and after some consideration, he said, “It can be done, but I’d like to borrow some more people.”

“Go ahead,” the queen said, interestedly looking at Li Yao. She was in a good mood now, her plan was ready, but she wasn’t completely sure about thwarting the enemy. However, with Li Yao’s inclusion, she suddenly saw an opportunity for a turnaround.

“I’d like to borrow a thousand Banshees,” Li Yao said.

The queen shook her head, “Banshees, although strong, are not meant for fighting but for research and training Mages. I will not let the Banshees join the battle. Instead, I’ll give you two thousand ordinary Mages.”

Li Yao firmly shook his head, “I want the Banshees, and I’m not asking them to fight. I promise not to lose a single one of them.”

The queen grew curious, if not for fighting, then what for…
