Chapter 113: Despair

    However, Mana had its limits. The speed of the boss was just too fast. Even with his boots enhancing his speed, without the Shadow Roll, he couldn’t keep any distance at all.


    In the end, he was cursed after kiting the Son of Grugh for over a thousand yards and instantly killed.


    As the three guilds’ best yers started to gather, everyone’s face fell.


    Seeing two elite yers die, the higher-ups of the three guilds were already regretting their decisions.


    These hunters had been recognized by their guilds mainly because of their kiting techniques. Especially Prairie Fire and Starfire who tirelessly pushed the envelope with their record-setting kills of wilderness bosses, elevating hunters to elite status.


    Furthermore, these hunters themselves were quite powerful, particrly so in real life where some were seasoned archers, especially the Dark Grape.


    During the three guilds’ alliance, many hotshots got the chance to spar with him. He was an exceptionally capable hunter. Although he was the


    Vice-Chairman, he was the one in charge of this operation by the Holy Fire Guild. Over a thousand people acknowledged the strength of these hunters, especially the potency of the Dark Grape.


    “I’ll try once more.” A dwarven hunter, carrying a fire gun, stepped forward. He was skilled at using firearms.


    However, the realities of the modern world and the mechanics of this ancient fire gun differed significantly, and many real-world soldiers and marksmen were still in the adaptation phase.


    But, hunters needed to master various weapons, they couldn’t rely solely on fire guns. This had led many retired soldiers to choose bing hunters, but they struggled to stand out.


    The Dark Grape shook his head and said, “No need. I’ve figured out most of its features. A distance of at least fifty yards should be maintained. With a speed increase scroll, let’s give it another go. If that doesn’t work…”


    He didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone understood. If it didn’t work, they would have to ask Li Yao for help, but that would be utterly humiliating.


    The Dark Grape used a speed scroll and slowly approached the boss, arrow poised on his bow.


    The arrow hit the boss right in the head.


    Then he darted away quickly. Despite his speed being higher than the King of Hunters, it still wasn’t enough.


    He couldn’t keep distance at all. The Son of Grugh ran at an astonishing speed and used long jumps to close in on the distance between them.


    Whenever this happened, the Dark Grape used a back leap or the Shadow Roll to increase the gap rapidly. His situation was significantly better than the King of Hunters’.


    With his skills of jumping back and shooting, it seemed like there could be hope.


    The audiences’ blood boiled as they watched, even though they were only imagining the spectacle of Li Yao kiting tens of thousands of Murlocs. Even so, the third-tier boss was still more shocking.


    Especially when the boss had just blitzed two highly skilled hunters, they realized how twisted the boss was.


    However, when the Dark Grape kited it to a distance of three thousand yards, he ran out of mana and was then cursed by the Son of Grugh’s son and instantly killed.


    A Priest sighed and used the Resurrection Technique on the Dark Grape.


    The upper echelons of the guilds shared a look. They had failed again.


    This boss was tens of thousands of yards away from the outpost, even if they did lead it away step by step, it would not be possible.


    Most importantly, they couldn’t take the loss this time.


    “There was no way around it. The boss was just too fast. The only way to fight would be to intermittently use skills, but the consumption couldn’t be made up for, even with a mana potion.” The Dark Grape nonchntly mentioned, massaging his temples.


    If he had not been so desperate, the proud man would never have admitted defeat. But the situation was self-evident; they had to admit it to themselves even if they didn’t want to.


    Ya Zi was also quiet. Her foreboding hade to pass, and the thought of Li Yao’s smile sent shivers down her spine. He wasn’t as easy to deal with as they had thought. He was a man who lived by the phrase “an eye for an eye”. Yet she was not familiar with the other guilds and had no reason to offend them.


    “Seems like it’s about time for you to step in.” Zhao Lei contrasted Yaore’s plight with his pleasure.


    Guardian Angel nodded in agreement, “The three major guilds just wanted to save face. But this boss dealt them a heavy blow. This time, they were thoroughly humiliated. Right now, ordinary yers view the boss as formidable and are not ridiculing them. But once you take care of the boss, theirughter will burst forth.”


    “They brought it upon themselves, it’s none of our business. We warned them, but they insisted on showcasing their so-called ‘prowess’.” Zhao Lei said dismissively.


    “The issue is, this boss is so twisted. Is Prairie Fire really sure he can handle it?” said the Fruity Knight, frowning. “Your techniques are indeed better than Dark Grape’s, but the problem lies not in technique, but in mobility. Even with a speed scroll, they couldn’t evade. Despite having more mana than Dark Grape, this could only allow you to kite the boss for a little more distance.”


    “Actually, I had thought of this challenge early on and figured a feasible method. Let’s just give it a try. Hypothetically, there shouldn’t be any problems.” Li Yao led the way towards the boss’s location.


    “What a freak.” The Guardian Angel groaned. The level of challenge the boss held, even if at an equal level to them, would only lead to despair, let alone at the current stage.


    As Li Yao and the others approached, sparks flickered in the eyes of the three guilds as they watched Li Yao.


    “This boss can’t be kited at all, why didn’t you tell us earlier?” The King of Hunters retorted coldly.


    “You stupid fool, are you blind or deaf? Who asked for your help to kite this boss? It was my brother’s mission, so who asked you guys for help?” Zhao Lei bursted out.


    “We kindly helped, can’t even remind us now?” Death Scythe’s face also turned ugly.


    “I said it, the boss is dangerous. The scene was recorded by Ya Zi and has been heard by hundreds of thousands of audience members. It was you who didn’t listen, so why are you ming me? You all fought to kite this boss — you know very well what your intentions were.” Li Yao showed no mercy to these people.


    Just as he said, when facing these proud guilds, if they are acting aggressive, you have to act more aggressively. Show any sign of weakness, and they’ll think you’re easy to bully, like amb ready for ughter, always demanding more.


    Ya Zi could hardly help herself fromughing. Not long ago, she was in this same situation, now seeing others in the same boat felt refreshing.


    “What’s with your attitude?” The King of Hunters flew into a rage. Even after being revived, he had lost half of his current level’s worth of experience cards, and he was absolutely furious.


    “If you’re not skilled enough, then stop pretending to be a master. I don’t have the time for you, go y on your own. Just because you can’t kite doesn’t mean others can’t either.” Li Yao was walking towards the boss while talking.


    The King of Hunters was furious but held his rage in check. He was a top-notch hunter! The guild yers were also infuriated, their feelingsplicated.


    “Prairie Fire is God, 666666666.” “As always, he’s arrogant, cool and amazing.”


    “Indeed, he is the God in my heart.”


    “Exactly, me yourself for being ipetent, not others.” “Speak truthfully, this boss is difficult. Prairie Fire is in danger.”


    “Yes, it’s not a matter of technique. It’s a limitation of mobility.”


    Viewers watched with bubbling excitement as Li Yao slowly approached the elite Son of Grugh…
