MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter - Chapter 935

Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Victory Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Victory With the departure of many fleets along with the crescent moon, the situation of the battle became clear.

At this moment, the audience still felt as if they were in a dream, the victory of Starfire, which seemed impossible, turned out to be a miraculous win, far beyond everyone’s expectations.

Starfire was indeed strong, but to ultimately achieve victory against an enemy force dozens to nearly a hundred times larger was nothing short of a miracle.

And soon enough, someone on the forums labeled it ‘The Miracle Battle’ and posted the fight on the forum.

Of course, the audience was boiling with excitement. After all, even though the technology was just for watching, the viewers could choose to experience it as if they were on the battlefield.

This battle was so exciting for the viewers, a feast for the eyes. Everything from Starfire fleet’s stunning entry and secret weapons, to the massive naval battle, and Li Yao’s final decisive shot, made many spectators feel greatly rewarded.

Many were inspired to buy ships, especially those guilds located inland. Many hesitated to move to a coastal stronghold but felt it was worth it to change their location.

As for the land matches, they were being streamed next door. But the audience must have been far greater on the naval battle side, as the majority of players were watching the sea battle, while the few commentators who were analyzing the land battle turned green with envy.

The stream next door had audience numbers in the billions, almost soaring to twenty billion, while they had a mere few million viewers. The disparity in numbers was simply too vast.

Li Yao stood atop the sea monster, watching the fleet slowly move away, then turned to the Crescent Moon that had not left.

“Chairman Crescent Moon truly keeps her word, honorable and direct like a true heroine among women.”

Crescent Moon smiled, “Joining them in attacking Starfire was just a move of convenience. Who could resist when Starfire caught so much attention? There’s only one spot for an additional stronghold for the guild. Which guild wouldn’t be tempted? To attack Starfire was inevitable, since Chairman Liaoyuan is always someone capable of creating miracles. We never expected that this time we would end up as supporting characters to Chairman Liaoyuan’s spotlight.”

“If that’s the case, why did Chairman Crescent Moon retreat halfway?” asked Li Yao, very curious.

Crescent Moon took a deep breath before responding, “It’s still about getting that territory. Initially, joining the coalition was to eliminate a strong competitor. Now that it’s no longer possible, why foolishly persist to the bitter end? Our ultimate goal was always to get the territory, not to fight Starfire to the death. After fighting up to this point, even if we could severely damage Starfire in the end, what then? By that time, we too would be done for. That would just leave us as a cheap spectacle for those who enjoy watching the chaos unfold. Now, I’m going to have a good time with them.”

“I’ve long heard that Chairman Crescent Moon is wise and decisive, never had the chance to witness it until today, truly living up to her reputation,” Li Yao sincerely exclaimed with a bow.

“I’m not deserving of such high praise. Chairman Liaoyuan, you are the truly impressive one. Both your personal strength and achievements are admirable, not to mention the rapid development of Starfire, which is truly unfathomable,” Crescent Moon offered Li Yao her compliments before seriously continuing, “But let’s not mince words: as much as I admire you, Starfire remains the biggest obstacle to the Crescent Moon guild obtaining a second territory. We accept defeat in this first battle, but we won’t be so courteous in the second.”

“Very well, then Starfire eagerly awaits your company in the second round. I’m also curious to see what methods the Crescent Moon guild will employ,” said Li Yao without a trace of worry.

Only one territory is available, and to expect to obtain it without any trouble is simply naive.

Li Yao looked over the battlefield, where the remnants of the fleet were still struggling vainly.

But this struggle no longer affected the outcome. Li Yao immediately joined the fight.

Apart from here, fiery battles began in other areas as well, vying for the ultimate victory.

“System: The top hundred land battles have been decided, and the top hundred are now entering the selection and deliberation phase.”

Hearing this alert, the guilds involved in the sea battle were all taken aback, but then they thought about it and realized it made sense; land battles were obviously a lot simpler.

With the System’s prompt, the sea battle became even more intense.

On the current military exploits leaderboard, Starfire still held the top position with a terrifying 68.25 points. This meant that nearly seventy of the five hundred guilds were virtually eliminated by Starfire.

The second-ranked guild only had 9.36 points, far behind Starfire, and was practically crippled as well.

Although more than half of Starfire’s members had fallen, all their warships were intact, the NPCs operating the cannons were unharmed, and there was no shortage of players controlling the hundred-hunt crossbows. Thus, their combat power remained, and together with over a dozen core members of Starfire now in boss form, their fighting strength was ferocious to the extreme.

After such a long period of intense combat, they were all still holding on by sheer willpower.

“System: Six hours of combat have roused the Naga lurking in the marine zone and the Bloodsail Pirates from the surrounding seas. Both the Naga and the pirates are mounting an attack.”

“System: The incursions of the pirates and Naga are not only crises but also opportunities. Destroying the pirate ships can yield a chance to obtain cannon production blueprints as well as blueprints for fast pirate ships and related equipment facilities.”

“System: Defeating the Naga squads can offer a chance to acquire rare deep-sea specialties and even the chance to obtain prow sculptures along with Naga treasures.”

After six hours, the surviving players’ eyes lit up; they had not anticipated such benefits after a six-hour-long battle.

Whether it was cannon blueprints or fast pirate ship blueprints, both were valuable items. Having witnessed the firepower of Starfire’s fleet, everyone’s eyes blazed with eagerness at the mention of slaying pirates.

As for the Naga, things like sea monster prow sculptures didn’t interest people as much.

Starfire had already distributed the spoils of war, and everyone unceremoniously collapsed on the deck to rest. They were all exhausted to death, not wanting to move even a finger.

Aboard the intermediate battleship, several decision-makers sat around a table, each taking a break.

The various chairpersons had flushed faces, all of them excited, having thought they were on the brink of elimination, only to experience such a turnaround.

Besides, they had gained too many benefits from this battle.

Not to mention anything else, nearly eight hundred captures of still repairable ships alone; in the end, each of the three other guilds received a hundred ships, while Starfire got five hundred.

There was no disagreement over this distribution; it was divided according to the ratio of military exploits. A hundred ships were already too much for the other guilds to digest.

“Chairman Liaoyuan, look, there are pirates over there, so many guilds are charging forward. Why aren’t we moving?” Tianzhen asked.

“Exactly, exactly, those are the blueprints for the fast ships and the cannons.” The chairmen of the other two guilds said anxiously.

Li Yao shook his head and said, “If you trust me, then stay put and enjoy the spectacle. If you want to join in, I won’t oppose it, but we at Starfire have no interest.”…
