Chapter 1737: Chapter 1737 Encounter

Li Yao’s mechanical avatar was protecting his true body in the front, while the broodmother continuously emitted sound waves that could detect very distant channels.

The passage did indeed have many traps, and even illusions.

However, under the broodmother’s sound wave detection, hidden creatures couldn’t succeed, and under Li Yao’s divine eyes, those hidden mechanisms failed to activate.

The reason for such caution is because the twisted arcane master had specifically mentioned his name.

So, even though there were many traps and mechanisms, Li Yao moved smoothly down the passage without the slightest hindrance or delay.

He arrived at a spacious cave with quite a few passages, and Li Yao did not hurry but let the broodmother explore each one.

After a while, a player also quickly entered the cave and turned pale at the sight of Li Yao sitting in the center.

One could say that in the second stage, aside from Starfire’s people, the last person they wanted to encounter was Li Yao.

The reason was already clear, for in the first layer, Li Yao single-handedly faced numerous experts and still managed to kill them on all fronts.

This sent everyone into panic, with many comforting themselves by thinking Li Yao was strong because he relied on a pet, but back then he hadn’t summoned any pet, leaving so many super experts helpless, which spoke volumes.

"Can we pretend this encounter never happened?" The newcomer was a Lizardman, showing what he thought was a charming smile.

But with different aesthetics, a Lizard face’s idea of an attractive smile did not align with human standards.

"The Lizardmen I know are all very assertive, how come today I meet one who’s so cowardly," Li Yao asked curiously.

Since the time of dimensional merging, he had been resented by the Lizardmen for disrupting their city’s descent. Later, at various racial conventions, he humiliated the Lizardmen completely.

This should have made the Lizardmen loathe him intensely. Besides, those Lizardmen he encountered were cold-blooded like animals, sinister, cunning, arrogant, and unreasonable.

But today this Lizardman seemed rather different, having learned patience and even temporarily yielding.

"It’s because of Prairie Fire’s fearsome reputation you’ve carved out. Although we have many grudges, I have to admit you’re truly strong, and I’m no match for you alone."

Li Yao looked at the Lizardman with interest, "This doesn’t fit the typical Lizardman style, oh, now I remember; you Lizardmen, like many male dragons, enjoy mating with any compatible female, perhaps you’re not a pure-blooded Lizardman."

The Lizardman’s expression changed, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes, "Aren’t Earthlings supposed to be civilized? Why are you so indecent."

"Indecent, really? You can do it but I can’t say it, doing it isn’t indecent, oh, saying it is, now what kind of logic is that?" Li Yao said casually while fiddling with a hand sickle.

"We’ve abandoned brutal traditions since entering the interstellar age, please behave," the Lizardman said, clenching his claws, resisting the urge to attack.

"Not many years have passed since the interstellar era began, you might not have even been born then."

"Enough, I’ve spoken kindly to you, yet you’re so infuriating, you’ve once again shown me the low standards of Earthlings." The Lizardman slowly retreated.

"Leaving so simply? It’s not that easy, you’re likely an important member of your team, even holding the team’s items; you can’t die, or your team will lose their ace, right?" The mechanical avatar suddenly appeared behind the Lizardman, blocking the entrance he came from.

"Prairie Fire, you’ve truly hit rock bottom, today I’ve seen it firsthand," the Lizardman sneered, tearing several scrolls, enveloping himself in multiple layers of Shields.

"As expected, a team’s resource holder, which means I can’t let you go," said Li Yao, as Titan’s Strike appeared in his hands and he fired directly.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Lizardman raised a black-smoke-emitting Shield in front of himself, shrinking his body back, surprisingly deflecting all the bullets.

"So it’s you, equipped with awareness, intentionally playing timid. I must kill you today," Li Yao instantly recognized the Shield as the one that had saved a Lizardman from him four or five times.

This left a lasting impression, but as time passed without seeing the Shield-wielding Lizardman again, Li Yao had given up, unexpected to encounter him here.

"Heh, truly think I’m afraid of you? I admit you’re strong, but I also have extraordinary means; I’m unwilling to pay that price to kill you. Moreover, I’m not interested in your equipment. I intended to yield and bluff, but it’s you who pushed me,"

The Lizardman leaned on his Shield, starting to draw complex patterns on the ground.

His back was faced to the mechanical avatar, and the attacks from it couldn’t shake his body, indicating the strength of the surrounding Shield.

Li Yao caught a glimpse of the complex Array’s corner, and sneered lightly, "It’s just an amplified Spell that combines with the Summoning God power. I can kill the projection of a primary god’s direct control, let alone the avatar of such weak summons like yours. So be it, killing you normally can drop your level by one; with you sacrificing yourself to unleash power then killing you, you drop by two levels, and much of your equipment will burst out. You’re not concerned about my equipment, but I’m quite interested in your Shield, considering my vast resources; even if I can’t use it, others will, I await your summoning."

The Lizardman’s body paused for a moment while carving the Array, then continued, "You’ll regret this, I assure you."

"I’ll be waiting," Li Yao sneered, his mechanical avatar continuously attacked, breaking through the surrounding Shields but ceased further aggression.

As Li Yao stated, this Shield was a good artifact, if he guessed right, it might be a supreme dark gold item, also attached with Arc Defense Secret Skill Shield, it’s an excellent item and could be used for a long time even at max level.

The Fruit Knight, the top tank, was slightly weak, needing a bit of reinforcement.

"Damn it, what dares disturb my slumber, wish to perish?"

At that moment, while the two were enfolded in intense sleep, a voice resonated from all directions.

Numerous droplets appeared on the cave’s ceiling, swiftly transforming into raindrops that splashed onto the ground.

Li Yao’s expression shifted, he and his mechanical avatar retreated down the tunnel, gazing at the cave that resembled a Water Curtain Cave.

Meanwhile, the summoning Array was nearly formed with the Lizardman addressed in a layer of red light shield.

The sound of the tide echoed as if surrounded by the ocean; the water reached waist height, forming a humanoid figure constructed from water.

"Outsiders, actual outsiders, I assumed it was that old undying one, never mind, killing you first is just as well, ten thousand years have passed, I seek to settle accounts with that old undying one."...
