The entire battle happened within a few seconds, and three undead had already fallen before Li Yao even had a chance to release the Arrow Tower.
The power of the Fire Eagle took him by surprise, but thinking about it being a leader-level pet, he felt relieved.
In his past life, when teams needed a Hunter, they would call out like this.
“Someone Group, we need a strong pet, and a Hunter who can float around.
Hunters without strong pets need not bother.”
Most of the time, players jokingly say that a good pet is a Hunter’s golden rice bowl, which is true; a powerful pet can deal more damage than a Hunter. Of course, this refers to Beast King Hunters.
Li Yao issued a series of commands in his heart, then expectantly watched the Fire Eagle. Now was the time to test whether the Fire Eagle could become a
divine pet.
The Fire Eagle dove down and then flew back up quickly, hugging the ground. The undead it scared along the way chased it.
As per Li Yao’s instructions, the Fire Eagle circled in the distance, leading at least dozens of undead behind it.
Meanwhile, Li Yao had already set up Arrow Towers around him, arranging them in a triangle. The Spike Traps were also set at a distance.
“Attack.”
Li Yao gave the command, and the Fire Eagle let out a cheerful chirp, its body spinning around.
Its eyes were fixed on the approaching undead, and the flames on its body seemed to jump up. It suddenly flapped its wings, and feathers with a metallic sheen and burning flames shot out, resembling arrows.
Feather Fire Scattershot! !!
It was as if a rain of fiery rockets was assaulting a camp. Large quantities of burning feather pierced the bodies of the undead, and the damage numbers on the screen displayed in Li Yao’s eyes were already full.
-95-98-97-95-96-92-93-95-94…
Although the damage wasn’t as high as the Fire Breath, the Arrow Rain lasted at least six seconds and produced three rounds. Furthermore, the range of the Feather Fire Scattershot was large enough to completely cover these undead.
Just six seconds later, the leading undead had just reached Li Yao’s firing range, and they had already lost half their health.
Li Yao was not idle; he held a heavy crossbow, and the massive Steel Arrow shot into the sky.
Then, a true Arrow Rain appeared above the undead, and it was towering Steel Arrows. Because he was using a heavy crossbow, Li Yao’s Arrow Rain inflicted a lot of damage, not at all weaker than the Fire Eagle’s Feather Fire Scattershot.
The Arrow Tower next to Li Yao began to attack, and a large number of damage numbers flickered — making Li Yao feel like he was farming monsters instead of battling them.
In addition to triggering the Spike Traps which caused the undead to bleed, none of the ordinary undead was able to get within thirty yards of Li Yao before collapsing.
Only a few elite undead could hold off for a second, but they couldn’t approach under the combined assault of the Fire Eagle’s Steel Ripping and Li Yao’s Arrow Tower.
“This is a bit like the feeling of farming monsters in a game.”
Li Yao sighed and admitted, in his past life, he was able to farm ordinary monsters but only after becoming a leader. However, once he was a leader, there was not much gain from farming ordinary monsters.
Gold coins, drop items, materials and especially experience, when dealing with regular monsters after becoming a leader, there was hardly any gain.
Unlike now, although the experience from ordinary monsters is not as good as elites’, there’s plenty of them. Moreover, he and the Fire Eagle were only level five, killing level seven undead yielded quite good experience.
Moreover, he could farm ordinary monsters like this without being an elite. This shows the strength of a Mechanical Hunter from another angle.
This situation is almost exclusive to other games.
“The Ancient God World” is called “World of Tyranny” by many players. If other players saw him farming monsters like this, they would probably be flabbergasted.
Upon seeing corpses scattered all over the ground and smelling the stench they emitted, Li Yao quickly drank a Breathing Potion.
The Ancient God World was too realistic. The dim, undead-infested lands reeked of rot.
The average person wouldn’t be able to handle it; Li Yao had come prepared with a special mask.
But killing these monsters and enduring their scent was something even an experienced player like Li Yao struggled with.
“I truly have lost the spirit of hardships and struggles from the past.” Li Yao laughed bitterly, recalling years past when he would practice his archery, often staying in one spot for months, not minding anything. But now, he couldn’t even stand this smell.
For this trip, he even bought a large number of Breathing Potions, spending over three Gold Coins on over a hundred bottles. He planned for a long-term battle, taking one potion every half hour. The spending would make regular players vomit blood out of envy.
But he didn’t care; the loot from his previous adventures, along with his mining profits, meant he didn’t worry about this small expense.
Thinking of it, he felt a certain respect for Flaming Red Lips. As the head of an all-female guild, she had managed to bring a group of beautiful girls to this stench-filled area to level up, battling Undead as real as life itself, a task that displayed a significant mental challenge.
“There’s no such thing as easy success.” Li Yao pondered for a while but looking at the disgusting corpses, he still had no desire to loot them personally.
“Go, loot the bodies,” Li Yao casually ordered his Firehawk, a command he gave instinctively. After obtaining the Quasi-god pet, dirty and strenuous tasks had become duties of the pet.
As Li Yao shook his head, preparing to command his Firehawk to lure more monsters, he watched as the hawk began to circle a pile of corpses.
Then, a system notification popped up on Li Yao’s screen.
“Your pet has picked up Linen Cloth *3” “Your pet has picked up copper coins *5”
“Your pet has picked up Rotten Leather Armor”
Li Yao was taken aback, then noticed that the Firehawk actually had a small storage space. Though this consisted only sixteen slots, it was more than enough to collect loot.
While Li Yao was still surprised, the Firehawk returned to him, triumphantly chirping.
Though he couldn’t understand what it was chirping, at this moment it was like a child awaiting praise from its parent.
Li Yao patted its head while transferring the items from the pet’s storage space into his own backpack.
“Off you go, to the next wave.”
Li Yao then took out a large screw and threw it into the distance. The Firehawk immediately swooped down, swallowed the screw, and then joyfully flew off to lure more monsters.
As for Li Yao, he withdrew an engineering table from his Mechanical Space, positioned himself at it, and started browsing the official forum for valuable information.
All he needed to do was release an Arrow Rain, activate a Spike Trap, and let his Firehawk and Arrow Tower do the rest. He sat leisurely and viewed the forum.
He even started watching others’ live streams to gather intel about other locations and players. He found it fairly interesting and were it not for the repulsive environment, Li Yao might have brought out some game snacks. He was certainly enjoying the relaxed gameplay.
Overlooking the whole of the Tower of the Windwalker, one would see several small parties scattered across the deserted city, bravely and tirelessly battling monsters, including many women. However, their struggle was evident as they lured and killed one monster at a time.
Then one would see Li Yao, a heavy crossbow in his hands, leisurely sitting by as dozens of monsters were massacred in the distance. His style was a stark contrast to the others.
Time passed as Li Yao enjoyed his leisurely play, satisfied with the experience but frustrated that the queen’s necklace was nowhere in sight.
Just then, a figure surrounded by lightning approached him from a distance and said rather coldly, “Fight me.”
Li Yao turned around, looking utterly bewildered….
