MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Chapter 487: 487

“You demons, who have slaughtered our people and desecrated our gods, will suffer the cruelest punishment.” The half-human, half-horse warrior Silverstar Triumvirate pointed his long spear toward Li Yao and his companions, anger in his voice.

Li Yao sneered: “Who the real demons are, is clear to see. Look at yourselves now, are you still the centaurs that inherited the bloodline of nature and the Mother Earth? You are nothing but mutated beasts.”

The centaurs at this moment, were different from the ones they had once fought with.

Originally, their hooves had turned black, and black energy was emitted from their bodies. Now, their bodies were swollen, and their skin was covered in eerie, glowing runes.

Their eyes had turned pitch-black, and curved goat horns had sprouted from their heads. Needless to say, their attacks had also been transformed into dark power.

“Do not dare insult our great god of nightmares.” Silverstar Triumvirate rebuked angrily.

“System: You have learned the name of their worshiped god from the Evil Hoof Tribe, the god of nightmares, but you could not find any relevant information about this god in your memory, as if this god had sprung from thin air.”

“System: Try to gather as much information as possible about the god of nightmares. Let the three major factions know about the situation here. The god of nightmares might have a significant connection to the absorption and deprivation of the power of nature or earth from the centaurs’ bodies. Try to gather as much information and intelligence as possible.”

“As far as I know, there is no such god as the god of nightmares, and there is no such demigod either.” Unparalleled Enchantress frowned.

The others shook their heads in agreement, indicating that they had not heard of such an entity. Now that the game has been open for such a long period of time, many players are tracing back the history of the game.

Especially the experts, they have a clear understanding of this world. They mainly focus on various temples and gods.

After all, they are the top powers in this world. However, just as the system suggested, they could not find any information about a god or semi-god related to nightmares.

“Just look at yourselves. What’s the difference between you and the fallen ancient elves, the current satyrs, and the mad Naga?” Li Yao then tried to extract more information and clues.

However, Silverstar Triumvirate no longer had the mood for such exchanges, he spoke directly: “Do not think that your small trap can stop the march of the great centaurs. Let them taste the rain of arrows. Men, let them taste the ruthlessness of arrows as if we were hunting.”

Whoomp…

Squeaky…

The sound of bowstrings ringing out echoed in the air as three thousand arrows ascended, engulfing the sky and blanketing towards Li Yao’s group. novelbuddy.cσ๓

“Quick, earth wall, ice wall…”

Following Li Yao’s words, three thick walls of earth absorbed the surrounding mud and rose rapidly in front of everyone.

Similar to Li Yao, Mu Zi waved her magic wand and a sturdy ice wall also rose up.

Thud, thud, thud…

As the arrows fell, the first earth wall had already been shattered. The altar was also filled with arrows.

“Second round, fire.”

The archery skills of the centaurs are undoubtedly top-notch. Before everyone could catch their breaths, the second round of arrow rain had already fallen, and the second earth wall had also been shattered.

“Third round, fire.”

Woosh…

The sound of arrows piercing the sky tore through the eardrums. The shocking scene made them realize what real war was like. However, members of Starfire didn’t have the luxury to be impressed. At this moment, they all were nervously watching the earth wall and ice wall before them. If they failed to hold, under such dense arrow rain, even the spider tank in defence format would instantly be killed.

Boom boom…

Yet another earth wall collapsed.

“Fourth round, fire.”

Crack crack crack…

Numerous cracks appeared on the ice wall, but it did not shatter.

“Fifth round, fire.”

Suddenly, the ice wall shattered, and Starfire’s people were exposed under the arrow rain.

“You said you could block it. Let’s see how you are going to block now.” A cruel smile appeared on Silverstar Triumvirate’s face: “Sixth round, fire.”

“Mu Zi, Hun Tian.” Li Yao quickly spoke.

“Roger that.”

As the three of them spoke, they blinked instantly to the front of the crowd.

Just as the arrows were about to fall, they quickly triggered the Ice Barrier, also known as the refrigerator.

Three Ice Barriers closely connected to form a new barrier, blocking the arrows soaring toward them.

Ting ting ting…

The Ice Barrier was an invincible skill. Although it was not absolutely invincible, it could definitely achieve the effect of absolute invincibility against any creatures of the same level.

Not to mention these “Silverstars”, even a boss couldn’t break the sturdy ice of the Ice Barrier.

“All ranged attackers take note, Crossbows take note, time for counterattack. Attack.” As Li Yao spoke, he released the arrow tower and turret.

Starfire’s ranged attackers also began to attack.

Thud, thud, thud…

The massive crossbow arrows shot by six crossbows were always able to penetrate more than four or five centaurs. They fired rapidly and stood still in formation. To the crossbow arrows fired from the arrow tower and the crossbows, they were simply perfect targets.

In an instant, Starfire also fully opened fire. Unlike the crossbows, their targets were all those marked by Li Yao.

Plus, the attacks from the skeletal centaur archers were also instantly lethal.

However, the downpour attack of the centaurs did not stop. An Ice Barrier could last twenty seconds, and they had already blocked nearly ten rounds of arrow rain.

In the span of twenty seconds, the centaurs also suffered considerable losses.

“Damn it! Why aren’t they here yet?” Silverstar Triumvirate roared furiously.

Swish…

Following the chief’s words, three or four teams of centaurs carrying several tree trunks split by magic arrived.

They then quickly charged at the trap.

Boom…

Although Li Yao marked them, and the centaurs carrying the trees were killed, the huge trees still fell resoundingly.

The trees were very large, even when split vertically, they were still thick.

Laid on both sides of the trap, they formed a large bridge.

“Men, charge for me and wipe them out.” Silverstar Triumvirate brandished his war spear.

The close-combat centaurs put away their bows and arrows, and a group split from the rest to charge on the wooden bridge.

“Mages, retreat. Bedside, Fruits, get up there.” Li Yao was also issuing orders.

The battle has changed back to the original scenario: Iron Stone Demons, Spider Tanks, Fruit Knights and Guardian Angels were at the very front, while damage outputters were furiously outputting.

Meanwhile, the attack of the crossbows has never stopped, leading to constant roars of frustration from the centaurs. However, they had no way to hit the crossbows inside the altar.

Upon regaining a foothold, they returned to the scene of the outpost attack, only this time there were just more people. But after getting past their incessant arrow rain, they also got past the most dangerous phase.

“Finally, we have stabilized. What if other guilds trigger this plotline? What are they going to do?” Dazed Eyes said with lingering fear…
