MMORPG: DIVINE MECH HUNTER

Chapter 768: Chapter 768: Critical Point

Li Yao had no intention of chatting with them; he handed over the task and left without even bothering to make small talk.

These people were quite capable; in fact, if he had given them direction, they might have been able to defeat the Lizardmen’s team.

But he didn’t like these people; it was just a game, he didn’t understand what these so-called experts had to be proud of.

Just because someone wasn’t good at a game, it didn’t mean they were inferior; everyone had their own strengths.

Moreover, as far as Li Yao was concerned, these self-proclaimed experts were just veteran players, having nothing extraordinary about them except the duration they had played the game.

The Purple-Golden Raging Fire and the Hunter tried to keep Li Yao a few times, but seeing his firm attitude, they didn’t insist.

They sighed inwardly. They had offended him terribly before – now it was awkward to speak pleasant words.

However, they were thinking too much. After Li Yao left, he forgot them. He didn’t have the mind to think about these passing strangers.

Li Yao gazed at the sky; this was the first time he had come so close to an interplanar portal. His memories from his last life were somewhat blurred, thus his impression of interplanar portals was not very strong.

Of course, in his previous life, human players were completely defeated and were crushed by the alien players coming through the portals. The battle over the portals, despite breaking out in various locations, was collectively called the Disgraceful War.

Human players were completely outmatched. During his previous life, the main forces of each player’s city were still there, so they could deal with it.

But now the problem was the East Continent was incredibly empty. If they were to figure it out, a great battle was likely to erupt.

Previously, there were just a few large tentative battles between NPCs from both sides, ultimately leading to a protracted war but not heavy damage. The NPCs didn’t start to provide real support until the real battle began.

After all, they had been through many wars and disasters. For them, ruling the nearby two or three maps was a significant achievement.

The original monsters were primitive and showed no signs of expansion, but these alien civilizations were different. The real development and growth of various guilds only began after these portals appeared.

However, in his previous life, Li Yao preferred doing his own stuff, thus he didn’t pay much attention to these things.

However, this life is different. He had Starfire and the NPC power of the Sand Old God was too weak. Starfire would face tremendous pressure.

Given the lack of manpower, Starfire was unlikely to receive support from the queen. Even though the alien NPC forces had yet to explore the strengths and weaknesses of the Undead Capital, they faced great danger.

But this was bound to happen. Li Yao knew very well that the queen must have many plans to spoil the advent of this city. He was just one of the pieces that the queen casually scattered on the chessboard.

While she might not have much hope in him, Li Yao seized this opportunity. Not for the sake of the so-called skill rewards, but because this was a genuine opportunity to earn the queen’s high regard and access the Undead Core. If he was successful, his role would elevate from just an apprentice to a significant figure.

Even in the camp, far from the interplanar portals, Li Yao could feel as if the sky were about to collapse.

A huge vortex seemed to cover the entire sky, with murky black clouds swirling rampantly, as if they were about to tear everything apart. Meanwhile, in the sky, a corner of an ancient city suddenly appeared.

There were massive black chains around the vortex. Although they were called chains, they were so thick and tall that they could almost be compared to skyscrapers. Several chains dig deep into the earth, stabilizing the interplanar portal.

At the bottom of every chain was a Lizardmen camp, their task to guard the chains and prevent people from the Ancient God World from causing damage.

Their appearance urged the normally docile Lizardmen to cross maps to be here as if returning to their roots.

Despite the queen dispatching all bat knights to stop the incoming Lizardmen, the undead forces were too few.

Due to the continuous influx of Lizardmen from the Ancient God World, the Lizardmen’s portals were as secure as iron buckets. It was almost impossible to damage them.

Like all other main cities, the Undead Capital was desperately encouraging players, i.e., their fresh reinforcements, to join the battlefield. As soon as they had the right numbers, they would mount an assault here.

When Li Yao arrived, there was a gathering of massive armies – the player’s camp was packed. And this was just one camp.

This place was dotted with camps, just like stars in the sky.

A colonel received Li Yao and said, “More than a million new soldiers have gathered here, and more are coming every moment.”

“Are you preparing for a battle? I might not be much of a help.” Although Li Yao was reborn, he had been a lone wolf in his previous life. Even guild war management was a stretch for him, let alone such a large-scale legion battle.

“No, we need information,” the colonel halted at a map and said: “See these chains. They seem chaotic, but they are actually a massive Array. If the Array is completely stabilized, then the Lizardmen’s main city portal will be able to transport here.”

Looking at the drawn red lines, Li Yao saw something resembling a large array.

“For this type of Array, we are unfamiliar with it in our dimension. Even the High Elf’s great Magician said that to decode the Array and find the key points would take at least a month. But we do not have that time, we have at most five days. If we cannot disrupt the Array in five days, the other side’s main city will arrive. As the queen’s apprentice, you must also understand the current situation of our main city. If that happens, our capital will be in danger,” the colonel said, his eyes firmly on Li Yao.

“And what can I do?” Li Yao asked.

“You are the person chosen by the queen, you must have something exceptional about you. We need to know the key points. We don’t need many, just three. Once we know the three points, the great Magician can make a short-term prediction. By that time, we only need to focus our forces to destroy as many of the enemy’s nodes as possible so their main city cannot come. This is the only way we can keep our capital safe,” the colonel continued: “These are the three Inscription Stones I’ve collected, consider it a down-payment. They are yours whether you succeed or not. But if you can find the three nodes, there will be a substantial reward.”

The colonel saluted Li Yao, his hands holding up the Inscription Stones.

“You flatter me,” Li Yao said with a bitter smile.

“You are a man of miracles. I’ve witnessed your growth. Many things deemed impossible were done by you. I believe this time will be no different,” the colonel said with burning eyes: “We’ve sent out many others, all of whom have failed. But I believe you can do it.”…
