Li Yao was now so poor that he had almost exhausted all of his funds to purchase Shining Fruits. His remaining assets were a few Gold Coins he had earned by raiding dungeons.
He could hardly afford the training in engineering. The only consolation was that he could learn some relatively cheap formulas in the main city.
But every stage was like this. The initial stage was easy but difficulties ramped up as he progressed.
As an elite job, Li Yao decided to focus on improving his engineering proficiency.
Once his engineering proficiency enabled him to build robots, Li Yao stopped and, even though he had almost exhausted all his assets, gathered materials and started to make robots.
Even though he was a master of Engineering in his previous life, constructing a robot, even the simplest one, was still extremely difficult.
However, Li Yao didn’t realize that a storm was brewing in the outside world.
The major guilds and clubs that had suffered major losses were preparing to strike back.
Li Yao’s accomplishment of obtaining first kill in the master-level dungeon had left all the guilds with lost face.
All these major guilds believed that with Li Yao’s experience, they could conquer the master-level dungeon without much difficulty.
Some guilds, after watching Qin Feng Yi’s dungeon-building video, realized that Li Yao’s wild team configuration was not stronger than their own. They discovered that the boss was stronger than the elite mode, but with other people’s videos and strategy guides, they could pass it.
So, they scrambled to gather some Shining Fruits, started building dungeons, and began live streaming.
Many guilds united and wanted to show Li Yao that not only could they raid master-level dungeons, but also, claiming the dungeon’s first kill was nothing special.
They claimed that their foray into elite dungeons was required by the company, it wasn’t that they couldn’t raid, or that they weren’t powerful. If anyone had doubts, they could take it up with Ancient Gods Company.
When Ancient Gods Company saw the actions of these major guilds, they were angered too. “Okay, you want to prove yourselves? Right, I’ll provide you with the platform.
Hasn’t the carnival ended? No Problem, we will provide you with the official live streaming platform, allow you to live-stream nationwide, even a TV station has been arranged for you.”
You want to prove yourselves? You claim the dungeon we made is rubbish? Right, go ahead and advertise it.”
Within just half an hour, their extensive promotion coupled with the enthusiasm of the excited guilds, resulted in the grand opening of master-level dungeon building.
These teams weren’t fools, they had carefully studied Li Yao’s videos.
Then they began building their dungeons. With the help of Li Yao’s team’s summations, the small monsters were nothing.
As they easily reached the first boss, Corpse Emission, their morale boosted, and they boasted of how mundane the master-level dungeon was and how Li Yao’s team was simply sensationalising.
Even though some of the audience knew better, most believed their point of view and considered Li Yao and his team as mere clowns.
However, reality was harsh. It did not take long before their smugness dissipitated.
As the battle against Corpse Emission began in the master-level prison, teams were defeated, one after another, and in a rather pathetic way.
They justified that failing once was normal. Wasn’t it true that they failed too when they first claimed kills?
And then they were defeated again.
It was then claimed that their occupational abilities were too strong, and that their failure was normal.They just had to get familiar with it.
And yet, they were wiped out again.
The fourth time, the fifth time, the sixth time, the seventh time…
Witnessing the repeated failures of the teams through live broadcasts, the world was stunned into silence.
“This is the difficulty level of a Master Dungeon? So many teams around the world can’t even get rid of half of Corpse Emission’s health, no matter how many times this challenge was attempted.”
If Li Yao knew about it, he would tell you why. Because in his previous life, they were stuck on Corpse Emission for four to five days and had to try countless times before finally succeeding.
Although he was reborn and passed this level due to a fortunate coincidence of owning the Crystal Spider.
Not that there weren’t any teams learning from Li Yao. There were also players who owned elite or Silver Hero Spiders.
However, when they attempted to set up their deployment, they realised how difficult it was. Even if they were Li Yao, they would still need three Arrow Towers and one Stone Demon as fixed points. They directly arranged their setup on the rock wall.
In some places, the setup was not sturdy and couldn’t secrete filaments segment by segment. Corpse Emission directly messed up the whole web. The repeated failures caused the commander to rage, cursing the useless Hunters.
As the failures continued, the audience was incensed, feeling deceived again. The internet was flooded with criticisms of these guilds and clubs.
Meanwhile, those guilds and clubs that didn’t participate were just watching the spectacle. The officials also responded directly by issuing penalties to guilds and clubs that used improper methods, and were demoted. They would not enjoy the seed team treatment.
Subsequently, they listed three top videos. One was the video of Li Yao leading the team to raid the Master level dungeon, explained by Xiayao.
One was about the basic three moves of Li Yao’s Hunter class and Li Yao’s performance in the carnival individual match, which were explained jointly by Xiao Ze and KB.
The third video was designed by the office in response to higher-up’s demands, combining the impressive operations of Li Yao’s two IDs into a highlights reel.
The incident caused the company’s upper management to pay more attention to Li Yao. They became aware that their decisions could put Li Yao under pressure and cause him trouble. To better test the Mecha, they started to campaign for Li Yao.
The third video even advertised for Li Yao, promoting the news that Li Yao wanted to establish a guild.
Three videos were made top posts, and they were placed on top in all the administrative districts’ official websites, which made countless people envious and jealous. This was undoubtedly an exclusive honor.
Countless people who didn’t know Li Yao were intrigued and clicked on the top videos, only to have their minds blown by Li Yao’s skills and be conquered by the technology. No matter what their opinion was regarding Li Yao as a person, his skills were impeccable.
The entire comment section was filled with praise. Only a few envious people blurted out sour words, but they were drowned out.
Hunter King – no one knew who first proposed this, but after watching the three videos, no one could deny that Prairie Fire deserved the title of Hunter King.
Especially the ‘Huaxia’ players, they were very proactive. The title “Hunter King” was not known to all overnight, but everyone who paid attention to the competitive scene knew about this title.
Many players from the Dark Camp expressed interest in joining Li Yao’s guild, and even some players from the Light Faction deleted their accounts and started afresh just to join Li Yao’s guild.
The guilds and clubs that instigated the matter wept bitter tears. Not only had they made a fool of themselves again, but they had also made others look good, essentially snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Meanwhile, Li Yao was oblivious to all this external chaos. Having made his robot, he was delighted and was now leisurely walking in the Royal District.
“You’re late. The queen has been waiting for you for half a day,” the banshee whispered to Li Yao.
The queen gave the banshee a glance, and the banshee quickly floated out and closed the door.
“Your performance this time was amazing. I heard you helped those birdmen clear out an Evil Cave. Although it is an insignificant place, you have brought me honor.”
The queen elegantly lifted her hand and gestured at the items on the table.
“Thank you, my Queen.” Li Yao picked up the items and bowed in gratitude.
“Hmm, one is a heritage crystal, the other is small trinket I no longer use. Consider this as a reward for adding glory to me.” The queen pointed to her chin and said, “Come find me when you are at level fifteen. You may leave now.”
Li Yao was curious about the attribute of this little reward, but still left the hall after bowing…
