MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter - Chapter 1040

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: Pillage Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: Pillage “Boss, all the assassins have entered the city,” Shadow Dance said excitedly.

“Good, blow up the inn then,” Li Yao sneered coldly. People inside the inn themselves were destroying the walls, attempting to carve out a new exit by the side. Li Yao knew they couldn’t be stopped–it would take at most ten minutes before they burst out, inevitably leading to a protracted battle, which was the last thing Li Yao wanted to see.

Following the command of Shadow Dance, players from the assassin guild promptly took explosives out of their backpacks and rapidly placed them at various positions throughout the inn.

Beast Speaker, using the Eagle Eye Technique, saw the situation here and screamed frantically, “Prairie Fire, damn you, you’re too cruel.”

“Heh, blast them to the sky,” Li Yao sneered coldly, his eyes also flashing coldly.

Following Li Yao’s command, all the vampires promptly distanced themselves from the inn, having witnessed the power of gunpowder before.

It was only a moment later that the cries and shouts at the Prosperous Era Base were drowned out by a massive explosion.

Everyone just stared blankly at the rising mushroom cloud. Under the furious glare of the Prosperous Era crowd, three inns exploded skywards.

People could still see many body parts; it was clear that about a hundred people on the first floor were completely obliterated.

The players who hadn’t been from a specific space received notifications that their inn was destroyed; they were given two choices: one was to enter the main city base, and the other was to teleport to the nearest available inn.

Under the command of Beast Speaker, everyone chose the nearest inn, but they were dumbfounded when they came out because the closest inn was also not close to their base. Not to mention those without mounts, even those with mounts would need an hour’s travel to return to their base.

But there was no other option, over 150,000 players from Prosperous Era frantically sprinted towards their base.

“It’s over, an hour later, and another hour after that, the moment will have cooled down. Moreover, among those with mounts, Prosperous Era doesn’t even have 10,000 players, which means the main force won’t arrive until at least an hour and a half later.”

The players remaining at Prosperous Era had essentially dug in; most of them, along with the NPC troops, guarded around the administrative hall, with at least 10,000 people. Starfire was fiercely attacking, but the opposing side was in a desperate state of defense, and it was not possible to take them down in a short time.

The rest were concentrated in the barracks, and because of Starfire’s gliders, they hadn’t even used their own guild altar. Now the altar was occupied and destroyed by Starfire, which would have caused considerable trouble otherwise. Many altars possess very strange abilities that often lead to unexpected victories.

This was why in ancient times, there were rarely direct attacks on guild bases because fighting on home ground with the additive effects of various buildings and special items could wield combat power far beyond simple arithmetic.

For instance, seeing the fountain statue at the inn’s entrance, which turned out to be an altar of the Great Earth Bear. This altar not only provided a layer of damage mitigation through a magic shield, but it also had the vampiric effect of Earth’s Claw.

If it weren’t for a surprise attack, Starfire’s assault would have surely resulted in heavy losses.

And Prosperous Era, true to its status as a super guild, had a city-level base with more than just one or two altars. Caught unawares, Prosperous Era hadn’t used a single altar before they were destroyed.

With the inn issue resolved, Li Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief–the situation was settled. Even if Prosperous Era was formidable, without the manpower, they had no options left.

Meanwhile, the 30,000 troops of Starfire had mostly arrived, with 10,000 surrounding the municipal hall and persistently attacking it.

And the vampires were joining in the siege of the barracks and other places where the NPCs were still resisting.

“Yan Ji, the situation is under control, deploy five thousand people to quickly restore the city defenses. The remaining ten thousand are to destroy their ammunition depots and buildings and transport all useful items to the port.

In war, some of the equipment dropped can be stored in war space, but many of the captured items must be transported using carts or ships.”

Li Yao was leading his pet to fiercely eradicate the remaining NPC army. Half an hour later, the barracks were destroyed, and the resisting camp leader was also killed.

With the destruction of the barracks, the morale of the NPC army plummeted to its lowest point; their attack power also significantly decreased. Of course, this included the players of Prosperous Era, who, without the barracks’ bonus to attack power, visibly lowered their attack by a notch.

Meanwhile, as the Hundred Hunting Crossbows were reassembled around the city hall, the ten thousand players of Prosperous Era dwindled to less than five thousand, and the numbers at the council hall also decreased by a small half amidst the constant attacks.

However, before they could recover, just five minutes later, a notification in the guild channel drove them mad.

“Guild Channel: Guild warehouse password decrypted, guild warehouse scrapped, currently being looted.”

Li Yao, upon seeing the contents of the warehouse, grinned broadly, different from the interface, he had broken into a huge warehouse.

Starfire’s players saw piles of equipment, various materials, and a large amount of Gold Coin.

Of course, when we say a large amount, it is significant for other players of Starfire, but for Li Yao, forty or fifty thousand Gold Coin was nothing new.

“Stop dazing! Since the warehouse has been successfully cracked, everyone’s efforts cannot be dismissed. Thus, I’ve decided to award the top ten in military achievements with five hundred Gold Coin each, plus they can choose one piece of Golden Dress or an item of equivalent value. The top hundred will each receive a reward of one hundred Gold Coin. Everyone, the battle has just begun, do not slack off. Transport these items to the port.”

All members of Starfire went crazy; the rewards were given to the top hundred this time.

And those viewers watching the live stream turned red with envy. Damn, Starfire’s guild leader is way too generous offering ten pieces of Golden Dress all at once, and scattering fifteen thousand Gold Coin in the process.

“Damn, as soon as I level up, I’m definitely joining Starfire.”

“Fuck, now that’s a domineering leader.”

“Starfire folks are really living the life.”

“Envious, jealous, and resentful.”

“They’re playing like ancient gods. We’re playing a completely different game.”

Meanwhile, Starfire’s transport ship had finally arrived at the port. The crew aboard the ship, upon seeing the wealth accumulated at the port, frantically began moving the items onto the ship.

“Damn it, Starfire and your ancestors.” Prosperous Era’s players roared furiously.

Everyone from Prosperous Era’s eyes were red. It’s worth noting, Prosperous Era’s previous base had already been looted once; although many items couldn’t be taken, a great deal was still looted.

This time it was even more thorough. Items that couldn’t be carried away were directly pulled away in carts. This was no war; it was outright looting, the behavior of robbers.

What made them even angrier to the point of vomiting blood was that guild warehouse passwords are unique and basically undecodable.

“Fuck, I know now. The asshole Prairie Fire must have been the one who directed the monsters to attack our first base.”

The people of Prosperous Era cursed furiously.

Li Yao naturally did not admit it, nor did he bother to deal with them. The council hall was about to be taken down, and there wasn’t much time left. The first batch of mounted reinforcements from Prosperous Era was about to arrive, but the looting had only been halfway done, and the buildings had not been destroyed. If Starfire retreated now, it would not achieve the desired effect of striking against Prosperous Era…
