Chapter 1644: Chapter 1644 Dominance

Fortunately, Dalkhan was already Undead; otherwise, just from anger, he would have been half-dead. Throughout, he had always been honored, never had he faced such humiliation.

Although his subordinates were all Undead, even if he suffered a humiliating defeat, it wouldn’t lower morale, because ordinary Undead simply don’t have morale. But his subordinates weren’t just low-level Undead; there were plenty of high-intelligence Undead under his command, which was utterly embarrassing.

"Kid, you’re just relying on backing from the Dragon Queen, so why act so high and mighty? I think you don’t dare make a move because it’s useless. Even if I stand still, you can’t break my Shield." Dalkhan desperately wanted to regain some face; he almost said he didn’t even need the Shield to avoid being hurt, but thinking of this kid’s peculiarity, he revised his words temporarily.

Li Yao waved his hand, signaling for the battle pets to return.

The Black Dragon Queen flashed behind Li Yao, then the Magma Dragon he controlled suddenly breathed a Dragon Breath nearly a hundred yards wide, charging rapidly toward the city wall.

The Undead were too densely packed to dodge; from the battle formation to the city wall, over ten thousand yards were ablaze with the Magma Dragon’s Breath. When it reached the city wall, the Magma Dragon became incredibly unreal and dissipated directly.

Soon, a magma-scorched mark a hundred yards wide and over ten thousand yards long appeared; all the Undead in the middle perished.

Everyone was utterly shocked; this had completely transcended the level of skills and was an application of Law.

What was originally a lethal Volcanic Eruption casually became a Magma Dragon, which then exhausted its energy to kill countless Undead in an extraordinarily splendid display that dazzled onlookers.

This wasn’t even its complete form. How terrifying would it be if it regained its true power?

Li Yao stepped forward and said faintly, "You claim my attack can’t even break your Ice Shield when you don’t move?"

"Correct, I won’t move. Aren’t you a Ranger? I’m curious to see how much you’ve learned from your teacher." Dalkhan noticed Li Yao getting serious, and his confidence began to waver, but with so many onlookers, he couldn’t afford to regret it. He quickly channeled Mana to reinforce his Ice Shield.

"Fine, I’m also curious how many arrows you can withstand." Li Yao said, pulling out the crystalline, faintly glowing Star Bow from his backpack.

Seeing the Star Bow, Dalkhan’s Soul Flame in his eyes flickered wildly. This is insane.

He was overly familiar with Lyadrin. He had accompanied her to her family’s treasury multiple times to appreciate treasures. How could he not be familiar with the Star Bow?

Ten thousand years, ten thousand years, and no one in the entire Elf Race could draw the Divine Bow, yet it appeared in the hands of a novice generation.

Despite his discontent with Lor’themar, the man was a prominent Ranger of his generation, always trying to draw the Star Bow in the treasury, hoping to claim it, but never succeeding.

The power of the stars—just listen to its name. There are numerous legends about this bow.

"There’s still time to regret," Li Yao taunted.

Dalkhan felt ten thousand cursed horses racing past his mind, but at this point, backing down meant losing face.

"Hahaha, I, a world-class powerhouse, fear you? If I couldn’t take one of your attacks, I might as well end myself." Although he was inwardly panicking, it was too late for that. He continued reinforcing his Shield with Mana.

"Then stand steady." Li Yao curved the bow like a crescent moon, Charging, and all available buffs glimmered around him.

A formidable Dragon’s might spread. Any normal bow would snap under such a powerful draw, and only an exquisite bow like the Star Bow could withstand his use.

Even other dark-gold-tier bows would suffer substantial durability loss, if not break.

Full-Charge Arrow + Infinite Range Arrow.

The arrow carried Meteor Fire and Flame of Life, emitting a sharp whistling.

This was the strongest shot he could perform in his current state.

This time, Dalkhan genuinely panicked. This arrow was too powerful, utterly inappropriate for a race-level leader.

Dodging was impossible, partly because it was impossible and partly because it was too fast.

Crash...

The arrow struck the blue Ice Shield, spinning violently.

Dalkhan thought he had overestimated the arrow’s power, given the distance, but he still underestimated it.

Dalkhan’s body flew backward like an Artillery Shell; the two giant Skeleton Generals beside him, attempting to intercept him, were also blown back.

A continuous rumble followed as the three struck the Stone Column behind the city wall.

The arms of the Skeleton Generals shattered and lay broken on the ground.

Even Dalkhan’s Ice Shield couldn’t withstand such force, shattering under the dual impact.

The arrow drove into Dalkhan’s chest, pinning him to the Stone Column. His body remained intact only because he was a world-class leader, yet he struggled on the column.

Particularly the Starfire and Flame of Life, which could completely burn out the Undead. The life he had slowly regained was nearly halved instantly, and his health continued to drain with the two flames ablaze.

A few Undead tried to pull out the massive Steel Arrow but couldn’t; instead, Dalkhan struggled to free himself.

Appearing atop the city wall once more, treated for his injuries, the recent arrow left him anxious. He understood that if his opponent matched his level, a single shot would kill him.

Li Yao strummed the bowstring, saying coldly, "What do you think, want me to shoot another arrow?"

"Very well, very well, how many years has it been since someone gave me such trouble? Talking more is futile; failing to kill me just now means you’re destined for failure. My years of preparation won’t be easily defeated by you." Quickly shifting the topic, Dalkhan realized he couldn’t win a duel and avoided further self-embarrassment.

"Then let’s fight. You’re like fish in a barrel; am I supposed to fear you?" Li Yao retracted the Star Bow, flapped his wings, and returned to the Drying Sun.

"Deploy the troops," ordered Morning Wind with a wave.

Li Yao achieved his aim with this battle, stepping up over the former high-elf prodigy. Now, no one in the Drying Sun Legion would see his commandership as a coincidence nor voice dissent. And if they did, they’d be silenced. Although proud, high-elves weren’t ignorant and arrogant.

Players who accepted the mission quickly summoned their armies, dividing into different zones to fight the Undead outside the city.

Everyone knew that the Undead merely aimed to deplete the Drying Sun Legion’s combat strength, but Li Yao wasn’t so easily bested. He didn’t deploy any troops, letting the players take charge. As he said, those in a barrel needed no haste...
