Chapter 1524: Chapter 1524: Leisurely Courtyard

Li Yao was already featured on the main screen when he started his battle, and they had even aggressively cut off another expert’s livestream.

There was no choice, Li Yao always brings unexpected surprises every time.

Even though this was an anticipated result, seeing it with their own eyes was still somewhat unbelievable.

The recent fight was simply too shocking; the pace was perfect and a monster was killed in a short period of time.

The reason they found it unbelievable was that under the combination of two monsters, they toyed with those top hunters like dogs.

Let’s not even talk about those who couldn’t kill the creatures; even the top hunters who killed two monsters took at least an hour at the quickest.

To be tormented by two monsters for an hour is utterly miserable.

There were players among them who used engineering gadgets, but compared to Li Yao, they were simply rubbish.

Li Yao used only three Flash Bombs to deal with Warhammer Dragon, and in comparison to those top hunters who exhausted all means and still couldn’t kill two monsters, they were simply rubbish.

"I don’t believe it; that Warhammer Dragon must have been made of paper."

"Stop, this is not hunting at all."

"Although I’ve said this many times, I still want to say, we are simply not playing the same game."

"Less than three minutes, with three parts destroyed, he killed a monster, it’s just unbelievable."

"Heh heh, what those top hunters accomplish in an hour, he does in less than three minutes."

"After damage comparison, it’s confirmed that the Warhammer Dragon was indeed the real deal."

"Prairie Fire has mastered the rhythm too well, not only completely avoiding the Black Horned Dragon’s damage but also using it to fight the Warhammer Dragon, leading to the latter’s death, with two-fifths of the damage being dealt by the Black Horned Dragon."

"I think the damage is secondary; the Warhammer Dragon also caused a lot of damage to the Black Horned Dragon. The real key is the parts destruction. The Black Horned Dragon helped finish off three parts, and if Prairie Fire hadn’t directed its attack, the time taken to destroy those parts would have doubled or even more."

"No, without the initial Dragon Cart ramming its chin, Skyrocket Cannon’s attack on the abdomen, and the Dragon Cart’s tail, Prairie Fire wouldn’t have been able to maintain the current pace. If the three Flash Bombs didn’t take down the Warhammer Dragon, then the rhythm would have been thrown off. Even Prairie Fire might not have been able to stop the Warhammer Dragon from rolling over, and it wouldn’t be a matter of a few minutes to end the fight then, even Prairie Fire would have taken a lot more time."

"And most importantly, if Prairie Fire had used more gadgets to control the Warhammer Dragon and prevent it from rolling, then there would be no way to control the Black Horned Dragon."

"So, all your reverse reasoning is nonsense, okay. He’s achieved a perfect rating now just with three Flash Bombs and the Black Horned Dragon’s attacks, as long as he deals with the Black Horned Dragon perfectly again, the rating will definitely exceed triple S."

Li Yao’s incredible pace sparked a frenzy of discussion among countless people.

Meanwhile, the battle hadn’t stopped in the arena.

Once the Warhammer Dragon was dead, Li Yao lost his shield.

What was left was the showdown between Li Yao and the Black Horned Dragon, which didn’t hold back and directly burrowed underground, trying to hit Li Yao with a Skyrocket Cannon.

Li Yao didn’t interfere but instead laid Landmines directly on the ground, another boon from engineering that could be used in challenge mode, and moreover, it was a gadget only available when using firearms.

This kind of mine explodes upon collision and has a four-stage damage sequence.

That means if a regular bump or attack could only trigger damage one stage at a time, it could burst through all four stages.

But if the attack was strong enough to hit a certain threshold, it could trigger multiple stages at once, culminating in incredibly high damage.

But the downside is quite obvious. Against even slightly intelligent bosses or players, who the hell would get so close to a landmine? Moreover, these mines emit blinking red lights after being placed, so anyone who’s not an idiot would mostly avoid them.

This relegates such landmines to mere tools for controlling movement patterns, greatly diminishing their value and importance, only to be used to supplement damage when an opponent is stunned or on the ground.

However, a downed enemy presents a prime opportunity for attack, and setting up landmines takes too much time. Many Hunters would rather unleash a stationary super move than bother to set them up.

Li Yao doesn’t use them often either. He has too many tricks up his sleeve, and although the mines deal significant damage, they are too conditional.

But now, the timing was perfect.

These landmines need time to charge, and the maximum one can carry is three, with one recharging every minute.

Li Yao set all three landmines, and as soon as the ground shook, he used Flash to get far away in an instant.

At the same time, he also planted the rarely used Poisonous Snake Trap beside him, then he took a step or two back and his Hand Cannon merged into a Warhammer as he began to charge it.

Meanwhile, the Black Horned Dragon also burrowed out from underground.

The damage of the Black Horned Dragon’s Skyrocket Cannon was beyond doubt, a skill capable of killing a player in one hit, so how could its damage be weak?

As its double horns charged, the three landmines exploded simultaneously, with four separate blasts going off at the same time. The Black Horned Dragon’s Skyrocket Cannon is a rigid skill; otherwise, such ferocious attacks would have brought it crashing down long ago.

Even so, one of the Black Horned Dragon’s horns was shattered, breaking one of its twin horns.

The Black Horned Dragon glared at Li Yao, spotting him not too far away, and immediately launched its charge attack. But just as it got close to Li Yao, a Mechanical Snake suddenly coiled around its feet.

Crack, crack, crack...

The Mechanical Snake was crushed by the immense strength, but the Black Horned Dragon’s charge was also impeded for a moment.

And in that brief moment, Li Yao’s fully charged Warhammer came thundering down.

The massive Warhammer collided with the Black Horned Dragon’s other horn.

Clang...

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...

First came the sound of the impact, followed by the blasts of the grenades. The Black Horned Dragon’s remaining horn was left scarred and on the brink of breaking.

Li Yao was also knocked back a step by the huge force, and while pressing one hand to the ground, he had already set up an ice trap on the floor. Using this force, he sidestepped again, increasing the distance from the Black Horned Dragon.

At the same time, he took advantage of the distance to continuously fire Sleep Arrows from his hand crossbow.

The Black Horned Dragon’s first charge was interrupted, but there was a second phase to its attack as it launched another charge towards Li Yao.

However, this time, before the charge could gain speed, it was trapped in an ice trap, turning into a block of ice. But given its large size, even if it wasn’t broken free, it could only be frozen for three seconds.

Meanwhile, Li Yao had retreated almost a hundred yards away, and he began loading a Collect Dragon Bullet. As the ice was about to dissipate, he pulled the trigger. However, to everyone’s puzzlement, he didn’t attack the almost shattered horn, but instead targeted the wings.

Sniper Dragon Bullets gain power with distance, and at a hundred yards they inflict only third-tier damage, but that was unavoidable, as Li Yao couldn’t be given the time to get several hundred yards away.

The Black Horned Dragon’s wings took the hit, stumbling a bit, but it didn’t fall over. Instead, it launched the third phase of its charge...
