At this point, Li Yao was surrounded by a considerable amount of skeletons, and his score had also drastically increased due to a short period of ughter.
The courtyard was now inplete chaos. Although Li Yao could temporarily hold his ground, he no longer had any control over the rift.
Elite yers were continuously squeezing in and joining the frantic battle in the courtyard. Even the elite skeletons around Li Yao were constantly getting killed, because the assault was simply too intense.
If it weren’t for Li Yao constantly marking targets with Death ck Arrow and replenishing his skeleton army by killing, he would already have been engulfed by the crowd.
Li Yao scattered Spike Traps everywhere, but the Arrow Towers could hardly survive. The situation was far too chaotic, and Arrow Towers were assaulted the moment they were deployed.
“The Mechanical Hunter isn’t ready yet. It seems I still need to keep working hard,” Li Yao sighed amidst the attacks. From his perspective, the appearance of a Mechanical Hunter should be apanied by a violent metallic storm, with bullets pressing down on the enemies and giving them no room to retaliate.
He envisioned that he would be surrounded by a pile of Mechanical Pets, made up of various battle pets, Support Robots, Mechanical Ammunition, Mechanical Turrets, etc. They would form abat set that could stand firm against any environment.
However, the reality was quite the opposite. He was primarily relying on the passive skills of the elite ss Dark Ranger in order to maintain a foothold in the tumultuous battle.
In his opinion, the passive skills of the Dark Ranger were quite limited. After all, yers were gradually getting stronger and their skills were improving. Who would give you the opportunity to summon skeletons? The passive skills of the Dark Ranger were more often used in instances topensate for the Ranger’s output.
But, even in instances, there are limitations to passive skills. It’s not like you can summon hundreds of elite skeletons and conquer the instance. Other people need to stand a chance too.
However, for now, Li Yao does not need to think that far. He has many advantages that can make up for these shorings and give him time to rectify them.
Breaking away from the scatterbrained thought process, his allies, including Mutou, quickly gathered and formed a team.
“You all are ranged attackers. Use these skeletons as shields and try not to expose yourselves, especially you, Da Vinci. You should stay a bit further back and provide healing when necessary,” Li Yao advised.
In reality, with the protection provided by the skeletons, Li Yao hardly needed any healing. He could recover his health with potions. However, his teammates were not so fortunate, so having a top-notch healer like Da Vinci was crucial.
“Underestimating us, are we? Do you take me for a liability if I don’t show off my skills?” Da Vinci retorted, hovering a seven-colored piano in front of her. As she yed, a beautiful melody surrounded them all.
Upon checking his status, Li Yao discovered a substantial increase in his attributes. Each time a different melody was yed, it brought a different kind of enhancement.
The other members quietly refreshed their buffs, escting Li Yao’s damage output. His health and defense had also been significantly boosted.
This was the advantage of teamwork. It could elevate Li Yao’sbat effectiveness to a whole new level. Boosted by various buffs, he could kill heavily armored sses in two arrow shots. Of course, if he wasn’t forced to use Death ck Arrow, his damage would have been even more terrifying.
“So, are you the Necromancer, or am I?” Feng Yi looked at the hundreds of skeletons and sighed helplessly.
As a Necromancer who specialized in summoning, watching her Undead Pets get beaten by Li Yao’s skeletons was quite deting.
Thanks to Li Yao’s elite skeletons taking the brunt of the attacks, the team didn’t have to worry about iing direct hits. This, coupled with the ability to hold back melee attackers, led to their small team exhibiting a terrifyingly high level ofbat power.
While Feng Yi’s personal attack was not strong, her pets were quite special and not as useless as she imed.
The skeletons summoned by Li Yao could neither be buffed nor healed. However, thanks to Feng Yi’s Necromancer aura improving the characteristics of undead beings, the properties of the elite skeletons increased significantly.
Mutou was releasing various types of totems around the team. Because of these totems, thieves had nowhere to hide and those who dared approached were swiftly dealt with.
However, their firepower was fierce. But as more and more elite yers joined in, the situation remained grim.
If it weren’t for the limited space in the courtyard slowing down the iing yers through the rift, Li Yao and his team would have already been overwhelmed.
But even so, the situation was anything but optimistic.
The elite yers on the opposing side just couldn’tpete with the elite skeletons in terms of health and defense, and they were more cautious at the start.
However, as time went by, the elite yers grew more frenzied, attacking recklessly. Li Yao’s formation seemed less and less secure as their numbers grew.
Most of the spectators aligned themselves with Li Yao’s side. They were worried and felt that Li Yao’s team had reached the end of the line. Evenmentators like Little Ze and KB were not optimistic about Li Yao’s chances. More and more elite yers from outside were pouring in.
“Are these people crazy? They’re risking their lives for the Angel’s Wing.” Da Vinci was already sweating from the constant onught and increasing the intensity of their healing. Had it not been for Li Yao’s skeletons absorbing the brunt of the attacks, they would have been overwhelmed.
“These people are skilled, but they are not very smart. They have no way out,” Feng Yi noted as she released a Toxic Nova into the crowd.
“Why do you say that?” Mutou was still confused.
“It’s simple. They’re being yed by NPCs and they don’t even know it. It’s toote for them to realize their mistake now,” Li Jie, another team member, exined. “The Angel’s Wing. Thirty thousand yers took the test, and twenty thousand thought they could kill Prairie Fire to get the Angel’s Wing. But let’s assume Prairie Fire gets killed, there’s still only one Angel’s Wing. In this dangerous city, they were blinded by their desire for equipment.”
“Right, all those people thinking they’re the protagonists, believing they can obtain the Angel’s Wing. But some are smarter. While the others are frantically searching for me, those smart ones have already began umting points. It’s now impossible for the rest to catch up. In other words, most of them are destined to be losers.”
While Li Yao spoke, his hands didn’t slow down and continued killing the yers.
“Exactly, they’re like gamblers who’ve lost everything. After realizing that they can’t make the top hundred on the score ranking, they’re making an all-or-nothing bet. If they can kill Prairie Fire, there’s still a chance to fight for the Angel’s Wing. But if they fail to kill Prairie Fire, they’ll end up as utter failures…” Li Jie sighed at their foolishness for being yed by the NPCs and worried for their intelligence.
These guys were still stuck in the mindset that NPCs are static, as in old MMORPGs. However, in Legacy of the Primordial Gods, the NPCs have their own consciousness. If they don’t understand this, they’re bound to suffer a great loss sooner orter.
“These lunatics have given up on themselves. Let’s move back to the steps of the main hall and implement the next phase of our n. We can’t hold on here any longer.” Li Yao was also sweating heavily. Even with Rapid Shooting, he was beginning to feel fatigued.”
Just as they predicted, the elite yers who had wasted time searching for Li Yao were now going berserk. They were in a desperate situation. If they could kill Li Yao, they couldpete for the Angel’s Wing. If they failed to kill Li Yao, they would be total failures in this trial…
