Chapter 1481: Chapter 1481: Slap in the Face

The two Druids were well aware of Li Yao’s attack power, so they opted for a survival strategy from the start, convinced they had no chance of killing him, but at the same time, they didn’t believe Li Yao could instantly annihilate them.

They thought they had a very reasonable understanding of their own abilities, and it was clear that their plan was simply to protect themselves and then rely on the Dragon Clan to kill Li Yao, thwarting Starfire from taking on this task.

They also came from major guilds, and although they were competitors just moments ago, Li Yao’s arrival changed the dynamic of the situation.

This shift caused them to unanimously ally against an external party without any discussion, and that external party was naturally Li Yao.

Moreover, they were members of the Anti-Star Alliance, and were naturally enthusiastic about disrupting Starfire’s progress.

But Li Yao didn’t care about what they thought. As soon as he saw their reaction, he understood that only one side could carry on with the subsequent tasks.

Plainly speaking, whether it was them receiving a distress signal from the Dream and then coordinating with the middle-aged Green Dragon, or Li Yao himself rescuing the Green Dragon princess, it was all just a precursor to the important tasks that would follow.

And the subsequent tasks were very important, only allowing a single player or team to take them on.

The moment Li Yao made his move, he had no thought of holding back. No matter what kind of trap might be set by the Green Dragon, the dragon couldn’t be killed for the sake of the mission.

Otherwise, forget the mission, he would truly incur the wrath and pursuit of the Green Dragon. However, not fighting back would make him seem too weak, so he taught the middle-aged Green Dragon a lesson that was neither too severe nor too light.

For the Dragon Clan, they should always be supreme in the eyes of mortals. Having been easily defeated by Li Yao and left in such a disgrace, the middle-aged Green Dragon had lost all face.

The two players had to die. As the players transformed into giant bears, black fog surged violently around Li Yao.

Countless tendrils burst forth, and the chains that constantly coiled around Li Yao’s body quickly wrapped around the two giant bears like serpents, binding them.

With the numerous tendrils of Dark Touch, the two Druids instantly lost their ability to move.

Even though the giant bears were incredibly strong and kept snapping the misty tendrils of the Dark Touch, there were simply too many tendrils, continuously regenerating, and their struggles only made them less mobile.

"You think you can save your own lives; you’re overrating yourselves. Next time, keep your eyes open. I don’t mind a fair competition, but if it’s malicious, I won’t hesitate to flip the table. I’m not interested in playing house with you losers."

Having said that, Li Yao halted the chains hovering in front of the two giant bears’ faces, ready to strike.

Thud, thud...

The Single-handed Sickles pierced through their eyes one after another. Even though the bears’ defenses were strong, their eyes were not impervious to weapons.

The two players let out terrified screams, especially the female Druid. Her spirit did not even manage to float away before she was forcefully disconnected by the System due to the intense shock.

Indeed, the brutal killing was too much for her nerves to take. In reality, no matter how strong a person’s mental fortitude may be, watching a blade pierce through one’s own eyes is unbearable.

Neither mentally nor physically was the pain something an average player could endure, and as the levels increased, the experience became more realistic. It was normal for the female player to be forcefully disconnected.

"How dare you use the evil powers of the ancient gods to murder Druids right before our eyes. Seize him!"

The middle-aged Green Dragon lay disheveled on the ground, covered in mud and vines, looking extremely wretched. Having just risen, he witnessed such a horrific scene. Coupled with feeling insulted, he appeared somewhat hysterical.

Nevertheless, the Green Dragon Princess was not quick to react. Despite having greatly overestimated Li Yao’s combat abilities, she hadn’t expected him to be able to do so much in an instant.

A single move shattered the combined spell of several Dragon Clan members. Even without reverting to his Giant Dragon body, the Spell activated by the Power of Dream alone was powerful enough.

As the right-hand man of the Legion commander, the middle-aged Green Dragon naturally possessed formidable strength. However, he had still seen his face swept away by Li Yao in an instant, and it was evident that Li Yao had shown mercy. Otherwise, the middle-aged Green Dragon might have ended up as another wraith under Li Yao’s hand.

She wanted to intervene, but upon seeing the indifferent look in Li Yao’s eyes, she opened her mouth and then said nothing. She knew that Li Yao had no intention to kill, letting him display his strength might be good for helping them address the issues with the Green Dragons here.

And the Green Dragon maiden’s eyes were about to bulge out. She hadn’t believed the princess when she said Li Yao had the ability to kill her, but only now did she realize the princess’s words were true. Moreover, it seemed Li Yao had no intention of stopping, actually planning to confront many Green Dragons with his strength alone. Regardless of the final outcome, his courage alone was enough to command respect.

Arcane incantations echoed from all directions. This was already an area where many from the Dragon Clan had released Dream Seeds, composed of countless vines.

It was equivalent to fighting in half a Dream force area; even not in Green Dragon Form, it still greatly boosted their strength.

Masses of vines danced wildly, rushing towards Li Yao like frenzied venomous snakes.

"Bring it on. Since you’ve judged the powers I control as evil, then witness for yourselves the true might of evil strength," Li Yao said.

Li Yao’s feet stomped the ground with force. The dark tendrils infused in his feet took root directly in the ground, turning the vines beneath his feet black with Corrosion. The once-loose ground instantly stilled, no longer under the Green Dragons’ control to attack Li Yao.

Boom...

A mass of evil and dark powers burst open and directly eroded the surrounding green fog, merging into it. In a mere moment, Li Yao found himself enshrouded in a virtual ancient god’s body formed by countless fog tendrils.

Crackle crackle crackle crackle...

The fog tendrils and green vines collided wildly, with both disintegrating continuously.

However, what changed the expression of the Green Dragons was the fact that after the green vines shattered and were assimilated by the fog, they would condense into black tendrils. Moreover, the disintegrated black fog tendrils would reassemble.

In a short confrontation, not only did the ancient god’s tendrils fail to be suppressed, but they also kept multiplying rapidly.

The surrounding Green Dragons revealed their forms, some standing behind the Green Dragon Princess awaiting her commands, while others joined the ranks casting spells.

"If this game goes on, you will certainly lose. But it’s still too slow. How about I speed up the game progression," Li Yao suggested.

With those words from Li Yao, the Single-handed Sickle in his hand transformed into a Flying Scythe, which Li Yao cast out. Simultaneously, the chains surrounding his body burst forth like a flood dragon leaping from the sea, shattering the vines with heavy black fog...
