Chapter 279: Dilemma
In his previous life, Li Yao was always curious about where the divine pet Hydra, owned by a commanding player, came from. The player, who acted like he was God’s chosen, never revealed the origin of his Hydra.
The player who had the Hydra in the last life was from the Light Faction, and Li Yao had a grudge with him.
The two became enemies during a military mission. Although Li Yao had only been a Hunter for three years at the time, his hard work had allowed him to accomplish quite a lot.
In this mission, Li Yao masterfully tormented this player.
Later, the Hunter obtained the Hydra and challenged Li Yao for revenge. However, despite owning a divine pet, he was no match for Li Yao whose skills improved rapidly.
That player was arrogant. After receiving his divine pet, he abandoned his own skills, believing that possessing a divine pet could conquer everything.
In fact, it was almost true. The Hydra, known as the Ultimate Moving Fortress, was invincible when it unlocked nine heads, especially before the Divine Enthronement.
That player was so proud that he seemed unstoppable. However, his personal skills were so poor that regardless of how powerful the Hydra was, he was always the biggest weak point.
During the Divine Enthronement battle, with numerous strong players from every profession, he was defeated again and again. The Hydra didn’t show its power much.
Eventually, he didn’t even reach the quasi-god level and became a laughingstock. Many Hunters regretted, like Li Yao, who was less lucky and experienced.
With a single quasi-god pet and top-level skills, Li Yao was one step away from Divine Enthronement because of his pet’s strength, which led to his failure.
The players who achieved divine enthronement in other professions were also excellent, with equal accidental opportunities. Li Yao, who started playing the Hunter two years later than the others, even though he caught up through hard work, lacked the opportunity and lost inevitably in this imperfect state.
At the time, numerous Hunters lamented that if Li Yao could have had any divine pet, he would undoubtedly achieve divine enthronement and would rank high, but there were no ifs.
Several divine pets are underestimated and neglected, those masters ignore their own skills, hence wasting the pets’ talents in the end. Divine pets ultimately didn’t achieve divine enthronement.
Hunter is such a profession, no matter what kind of talent, pets are indispensable. Lone Wolf Hunting is no exception; it also needs to absorb the pets’ attributes.
Although Li Yao appears invincible now, it’s because of his skills from the previous life and his sophisticated equipment. But when the players mature, without a super pet, he would still be unsuccessful. That’s what Hunter is.
“I’d say you’re still half asleep. Yes, the Beast King can catch pets higher than his level, but let me remind you, this is a level 60 Racial Chief. Neither present you nor future level-60-you could defeat it,” the Guardian Angel said helplessly.
Seeing the boss’s skills, he shivered a little. Facing such a crazed boss, they can’t even escape, let alone fight.
“You’re being silly,” Li Yao responded speechlessly.
“What the fuck! Can you beat this boss?” the Guardian Angel mocked: “Even if the boss doesn’t fight back, with over 30 million lives, you can’t kill it if it keeps healing.”
“You are all scared by the current situation, but you ignored one thing,” Li Yao responded.
“What thing?” his sister asked, frowning.
“This is a low-level map. Don’t forget that this is a level 15 side dungeon map. Do you think there will be an invincible boss here?” Li Yao retorted.
“Why not? Don’t you remember the son of Grugh, a level 30 boss, in our level 10 map. The difference in monster levels in many maps is vast because of the mechanic of the ancient god?” the Guardian Angel said.
“I knew you were going to bring this up, but the problem is, you guys overlooked it. This is a dungeon map. Although there is no projection dungeon yet, it’s still different from the real wilderness. The dungeon map won’t have an enemy you cannot defeat at this stage. It depends on your luck and whether you have the necessary items,” Li Yao stated confidently.
His sister asked doubtfully: “You mean the boss will either leave or be expelled or weakened through some items?”
“Of course, but the problem is this dungeon has obviously come to an end. There will be a boss at the checkpoint, and this Hydra appears to be the boss. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, wouldn’t it be weird for me to stand so close to him, such a powerful boss, and he didn’t notice me? Obviously, it’s being absorbed by the force of the Moon Well and didn’t sense anything outside. This is our chance to use an item,” he replied.
“The item, the eyeball in your hand, are you sure about that?” Feng Yi asked, frowning.
“I’m not sure, but I have to give it a try,” replied Li Yao, taking a deep breath.
The mechanics of the Ancient God are annoying, such as the current situation, without the corresponding special items. Playing the plot kill is impossible to pass this boss.
However, no one knows what this item is. It may appear in this temple or any other place due to various reasons.
Li Yao obtained the Mysterious Eye. Even though it seemed to be connected to this place, the information was sparse. Even when he got to the end, Li Yao was uncertain whether he could succeed.
But the divine pet is right in front of him; if he doesn’t try, he’ll regret it for the rest of his life.
Li Yao activated the passive effect of Dark Ranger and hid his tracks, scanning the hall carefully.
Especially the statues of the Moon God and several ancient gods. However, after a long time, Li Yao could not find a place to put the Mysterious Eye.
Li Yao gritted his teeth and slowly approached the Moon Well. Everyone else was on edge. If the Hydra woke up once he approached the Moon Well, Li Yao was likely doomed.
As Li Yao was getting closer to the Moon Well, the Mysterious Eye in his hand began to heat up, shake violently as if something was going to break free.
Li Yao held the Mysterious Eye tightly, but when he got to the edge of the Moon Well, the Mysterious Eye abruptly disappeared from his hand. To his astonishment, the Mysterious Eye appeared in the middle of the Moon Well; a large amount of black mist spread out rapidly, enveloping the Hydra.
The sleeping Hydra woke up abruptly. Seeing the Mysterious Eye, it let out an extremely fierce scream with its multiple heads. The whole temple shook, and large amounts of dust and stones fell, as if it were on the brink of collapse.
“What are you standing there for? Are you stupified? Run!” The Guardian Angel was the first to react and shouted.
However, dealing with inertia, Li Yao jumped into the Moon Well.
Everyone was stunned. Their first thought was that Li Yao had lost his mind…
