MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Chapter 860: Chapter 860: Determined to Win

Li Yao, although he often said he didn’t care about equipment and wouldn’t waste time on low-level ones, when it came to a Divine Artifact, there was no such thing as wasting too much time.

Even if it delayed his leveling, if he had a clue about a Divine Artifact, he would spare no effort in pursuing it.

You must understand, in the later stages, Dark Gold equipment, although precious, isn’t very hard to come by. Kill high-level bosses, or if you have enough money, you can always buy Dark Gold Legendary Equipment of similar quality.

But Divine Artifacts are different, they are not something that can be obtained just by talking about them—they are truly rare treasures.

In The Ancient God World, peak Legendary Equipment and Divine Artifacts are never abundant, basically, each one is unique, possessing a history of its own.

The history of The Ancient God World is long, with many deities appearing, but no matter how numerous, there is still a finite count, while the player count is much higher, over ten billion.

Moreover, the vast majority of Divine Artifacts are in the hands of super bosses, and even fewer are the ones that fall into players’ hands.

In his last life, even though many players had achieved Divine Enthronement, only one or two among those players owned a real Divine Artifact.

The rest of the players who achieved Divine Enthronement merely had their equipment bestowed with divine properties after their success, only slightly better than ordinary Legendary Equipment and not even on par with the peak Legendary ones.

One can imagine the rarity of Divine Artifacts. To obtain one, not only does one need strength, but more importantly, luck and opportunity.

In his last life, Li Yao was considered one of the experts, yet he only possessed a fragment of a Divine Artifact, which wasn’t particularly useful to him. And yet, countless people were envious and wanted to take him down for it.

In this life, Li Yao naturally thought about Divine Artifacts and knew a lot of ways to obtain them, but knowing is one thing, getting hold of them is another, fraught with trouble, and even he didn’t have the capability to do so at the moment.

Among the two factions, only the Ancient Elves of the Light Faction, with the support of the Moon God, had the confidence to possess Divine Artifacts.

Even the King of the Light Faction used only a peak Legendary weapon.

In the Dark Camp, the Chieftain used the weapon passed down to him when the previous Chieftain died, which was also a peak Legendary.

Only the High Elves, once nobility of the Ancient Elves, had Divine Artifacts. The High Elves’ Royal Treasury possessed quite a few Divine Artifacts, but they could only serve as display items.

Even the Queen, with an Artifact Bow in her hand, did not easily reveal that it was a Divine Artifact—others thought it was a peak Legendary.

Divine Artifacts, treasures that even gods covet, how could Li Yao not be moved?

While other players did not yet grasp this as deeply as Li Yao, the mere reputation of Divine Artifacts was sufficient.

And the audience was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred watching the four individuals, especially the players from various guilds and teams, almost driven mad with jealousy.

Those aloof players who did not participate in the competition also regretted, feeling they had missed a golden opportunity.

“Good, we don’t need to make a contract then, trusting that no one will go back on their word,” the Lizardman Priest said, patting the shoulder of the Shaman player, “Mocha Dragon Tooth, as long as you win, the weapon is yours to deal with.”

The Ogre also said, “My disciple, Devour Heaven Carve Stone, if you win, the spoils are yours.”

Devour Heaven smirked with his two heads, “Mocha, how about letting me go first? I take on two, you take on two.”

Mocha nodded, “No problem, if you’ve got the skills, go ahead and beat them all. The spoils will all be yours. But hey, if you don’t mind, I would actually like to measure myself against Prairie Fire.”

“Heh heh, sure thing, sure thing,” Devour Heaven stepped forward several paces and said, “Which one of you trash is first? I can hardly wait to own that Warhammer filled with thunder and lightning, it will certainly make my name renowned throughout the world.”

Li Yao smiled and did not speak. Edward whispered to Li Yao, asking, “Do you think I can win?”

Li Yao raised an eyebrow, “You already have an answer in your heart, don’t you.”

“Hmph.” Edward certainly had an idea, if he had been confident enough, he would have volunteered to go first with his personality.

Although these two guys were arrogant, everyone knew the strength of the extraterrestrial gamers, and to think that players who could be brought here by such superb NPCs were not the strongest was almost laughable.

Gale said coldly, “I’ll go.”

Jackson gripped his war axe and said, “Why should you go first?”

“Then let’s have a competition to see who wins and they can go first,” Gale was too confident in himself, not just in defense, but also because of his skills.

By this time, the three Chieftains had already returned to their seats, and the female Earl pointed at Jackson and said, “Since you’re so eager, so be it, each of you will face an opponent.”

The female Earl considered for a moment and said, “For the first round, let Jackson go.”

She had her reasons for this arrangement; Gale had high defense but short legs, which made him easy to kite, and facing those two-headed monsters was not an easy task.

You must know, the Ogres’ two heads are no joke, many Ogres can have two professions, though they often specialize in the same profession and doubly benefit from the talents.

Facing someone with short legs, they would probably be kited to death. Jackson, being fiercely aggressive and having control methods, and most importantly, being very agile, with three charges, a big leap, plus an intercept and a flag-planting assist, had too high mobility to be easily kited.

And that Mocha was a Shaman, making him a perfect match for Gale with his high defense.

Of course, in reality, the female Earl and the other Chieftains were well aware that it was nearly impossible for them to defeat the other side.

They pinned their hopes on Li Yao, and Edward was also excellent, he might have a chance too.

Their meticulous arrangements were just to make them last a little longer to better understand the opponent’s tactics. Of course, in reality, they were not confident about Li Yao either; Li Yao was strong, but the disciples of those two super-powerful beings were not weak either.

But now that things had come to this point, they couldn’t show weakness even if they were not confident.

The arena was left with Jackson and Devour Heaven, and the countdown appeared.

The Ogre was clad in a Warlock Robe, wielding an ancient magic wand emanating dark energy. As the countdown progressed, he began summoning his Demon Pets, and with the formation of the magical array, a demon wielding Twin Blades appeared, followed by a Succubus.

“To think there’s a countdown, what a waste of time,” Devour Heaven appeared very relaxed.

Jackson was furious, saying coldly, “You’re all too arrogant, thinking we’re made of clay, I’ll show you what it means to be slaughtered in a while.”

“No, no, no, I don’t think of you as made of clay,” Devour Heaven’s left head bore a sinister smile, “I merely see you as my food, that’s all.”

“Go to hell.”

As the countdown ended, Jackson immediately let loose with a Crossbow Arrow, even warriors could equip crossbow arrows.

Devour Heaven didn’t bother to dodge, he simply started casting.

The demon guard with Twin Blades and the Succubus began to close in on Jackson.

With a roll, he dodged the Succubus’s Charm Heart and then charged directly at the demon guard…
