MMORPG: DIVINE MECH HUNTER

Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Recruitment

In one-on-one battles, it’s about skill; when teams compete, it’s about coordination; but in large-scale warfare, it’s about strategy and attributes.

Especially in the game, during such massive charges where everyone is squeezed together, not to mention other players, even Li Yao at his current stage does not stand a chance.

The Lizardmen were frustrated. They thought they were formidable, but it was a technical gap. In fact, their equipment was almost the same. Under such circumstances, combined with Starfire’s Senior Mage Team, this caused the situation to collapse rapidly.

“The southern line has broken, what are you waiting for? It’s the perfect time to earn military merit,” Li Yao shouted loudly, while his offense never stopped.

This encampment was surrounded on all sides, leaving the Lizardmen with no escape. Without the protection of close combat, the frail professions would be slaughtered once the melee reached them.

Facing melee combat, they could no longer smoothly release their various skills. Originally the Lizardmen didn’t have the Mage profession. Their long-range professions mainly relied on Hunter.

This was a common problem with many races; not every race has every profession.

For example, in the Dark Camp, only High Elves could become Paladins. As for Mages, neither Orcs nor Trolls could become Mages, and High Elves didn’t have Shaman Priests.

Lizardmen players have no other race to choose from, which is their advantage, but also their disadvantage.

The advantage is that they can proficiently control their in-game bodies because they are Lizardmen themselves.

The disadvantage is that the professions are somewhat monotonous. There’s no existence of professions like Paladin, Mage, Magician, Priest, or Death Knight among the Lizardmen.

After breaking through their melee defense line, the formation of the Lizardmen completely collapsed.

From all other directions, the players started attacking wildly like crazy people. After all, each kill is military merit, and with the system settling the merit, there could be no disputes over stealing merit.

With the promise of multiple military merits, players from the other directions were already turning red with envy. The players in the south had started harvesting kills, while the lines in other directions had not yet broken completely.

Within a quarter of an hour, Starfire and the southern guild had advanced to the center of the camp while the Bat Riders had nearly exterminated the Lizardmen’s high-level NPCs.

“All Bat Riders split into three directions, help the other three directions break the Lizardmen’s defense,” Li Yao’s strategy was clear.

The flight speed of Bat Riders was very high, and the high-level Lizardmen NPCs only had a chance to take hits passively.

Moreover, with the ongoing slaughter, many skeletons began to appear on the ground. These skeletons were either elites or bosses, all victims of the Dark Arrow from Ranger.

They also counted as high-level NPCs, while Li Yao’s team was expanding madly. Li Yao could summon two hundred skeletons alone, not to mention those high-level NPCs.

To high-level NPCs, these skeletons might not be strong, but these Level 60 skeletons were more than enough to deal with the Lizardmen.

The speed of the Lizardmen’s collapse accelerated, showcasing the terrifying aspect of the Ranger, the stronger they become as the battle progresses.

With the Rangers’ massacre, the camp was cleared. Each Ranger summoned at least two to three hundred skeletons. Originally, Starfire Team had five thousand people, but with the summons of the Rangers, Starfire’s team had wildly expanded to thirty thousand.

This was primarily because most Lizardmen were killed by the players. If all the Lizardmen were turned into skeletons by the Rangers, perhaps the army controlled by Li Yao would exceed a hundred thousand.

“Your military merits have been recorded, kills are calculated as triple, and the merits of capturing the stronghold are calculated as five times the normal stronghold. You can disperse,” Li Yao said and immediately disbanded the command channel.

Li Yao directly raised the Starfire and Guard flags.

“No, don’t disband Prairie Fire,”

“That’s right; let us follow you,”

“Yes, we’ll fight wherever Prairie Fire says,”

“There’s meat to eat when we follow Prairie Fire,”

“Don’t abandon us; we promise to follow Prairie Fire’s command,”

Seeing the channel disbanded, a lot of players were not willing.

Initially, they thought Li Yao and his team were going to steal the military merits, but now they understood. They were the ones who picked up the merits. They enjoyed fighting with Starfire. Other camps were still in fierce battles, but they had already taken theirs. Plus, their losses were very small. The key was the several times more military merit.

No one here is a fool. The rewards offered by the Undead Queen were already very tempting. Initially, many guilds didn’t hold hope for high ranks, but this battle gave them hope.

Just follow the Starfire Guild. Even if Starfire got the most, if they could accumulate some military merits, they would outdo the other guilds by a lot.

Many live streamers were dumbfounded. The Starfire having a hundred high-level NPCs was already shocking. But after this battle, the number rose to thirty thousand. Now, so many players wanted to join, and if Li Yao agreed, the team with Starfire at the core would inflate to more than tens of thousands.

The audience was also dumbfounded. They clearly knew that to get command power, you had to get a corresponding military rank, and anyone below captain couldn’t directly take over the command of another team.

But this current stage gave captain rank only to Li Yao, while other guilds implemented a joint combat system.

However, following Starfire would establish a superior-subordinate structure, causing many viewers to have different thoughts. They could already see the importance of the military rank.

While leading people to clear the camp, Li Yao said, “As you can see, I’m leading thirty thousand high-level NPCs. Whether you join or not doesn’t really affect me.”

All players present fell silent. Indeed, that was the case. Li Yao just reversed the situation with a hundred high-level NPCs, but now he had thirty thousand. Even though they greatly outnumbered these NPCs, they probably couldn’t even manage with five hundred of them.

“Regardless, we have fought side by side. Your siege has supplied me with so many soldiers preventing the Lizardmen from escaping. Giving you all some extra military merits is a way to resolve this cause and effect. Since some of you want to join the team, I won’t refuse.”

“However, I like to speak the truth beforehand. You can join my legion, but you must obey my commands. This is not up for discussion. We strictly follow the regulations of the Dark Alliance. When I ask you to charge, you do so. If I ask you to retreat, you do so as well. If you violate these, I have the right to punish you. You need to think this through. Those who want to stay, accept Alice and Sister Li’s reorganization. Those who want to leave, please do so. But, you’re not allowed to follow our legion, otherwise, you will be treated as traitors.”

After saying this, Li Yao no longer concerned himself with the players, “Sister Li and Alice, it’s up to you.”

“Yes,” Alice saluted, and Sister Li did the same.

Li Yao, on the other hand, walked towards the massive chain…
