MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

"Challenger, I admire your courage. You're just at camp-level, yet dare to challenge me. This Lion King is of the same rank as you. As long as you can kill the Lion King, I will duel with you." King Godok's voice drowned out the cheers.

Everyone knows the rules of human and beast combat. Generally, the beasts are starved for several days, which makes them the most ferocious, often able to exert 120% of their combat power.

The Lion King's aura was raging and fierce at this moment, showcasing the majesty of a beast king without doubt. Just this aura alone exerts tremendous psychological pressure on people.

With the sound of a bell, the duel had begun. Li Yao showed no intention of drawing a weapon, just standing silently in place, watching the Lion King.

The Lion King tried to pounce several times, but Li Yao stood as firm as a mountain. The Lion King gave up several opportunities, constantly circling at a distance of dozens of yards from Li Yao.

Aida!

Aida!

Aida!

The arena was filled with uniform shouts. This Lion King was a general of a hundred victories.

To become a king in the arena, like humans, it must have won a hundred duels. This lion is such a king, undefeated in a hundred battles, with high popularity in Godok. No one does not know of the Lion King Aida.

The ogres were extremely excited, clamoring for the Lion King to tear Li Yao to pieces.

This kind of shouting seemed to give Aida boundless courage. As a camp-level beast, he also possessed a certain level of intelligence, knowing that the people above were cheering for him, and immediately his aura rose another level.

Roar!

The Lion King growled again, his figure suddenly turned blood red, and his size increased by a circle, directly launching his berserk mode.

Then his figure shot out like an arrow, approaching from Li Yao's rear side, aiming for Li Yao's neck.

The arena erupted in thunderous cheers once more, with ogres screaming in anticipation of the bloody scene of Li Yao's throat being torn by the Lion King.

However, Li Yao still stood in place without any movement. Just as the Lion King approached, Li Yao gently took a step forward.

Time Deceleration!

In Li Yao's eyes, the entire world slowed down incredibly. The ferocious Lion King opened his gigantic bloody mouth, already in front of him, and he could clearly smell the stench from the Lion King's mouth.

Li Yao clutched his fist and punched out.

Boom!

Time returned to normal, and at that moment, the arena battle froze, and the audience's shouting abruptly ceased.

Everyone saw Li Yao's entire arm embedded into the Lion King's mouth, with the Lion King's eyes less than thirty centimeters from Li Yao's eyes.

The ogre audience expected the scene of the Lion King tearing Li Yao's arm apart, but it never appeared. In the eyes of the incredulous crowd, the light in the Lion King's eyes dimmed and then he crashed to the ground.

The entire arena fell into silence. The ogres had not considered the possibility of Li Yao winning, since he dared to challenge the king, but no one expected him to win in such a simple manner— the overwhelmingly powerful Lion King couldn't withstand one punch from him.

Not to mention the ogres, even the mercenary group members were the same. This was a camp-level leader, and it was killed by a single punch from Li Yao, which was too outrageous.

If Li Yao had used some skill to toy with the Lion King, they wouldn't be surprised, but this method made it difficult for even the mercenary group members to believe and accept.

Facing a camp-level leader, who they struggled hard against, spending precious items with a greater likelihood of failure, the outcome was that in Li Yao's hands, the leader couldn't withstand a punch, a scene truly shocking to the core.

King Godok also abruptly stood up. Though he was a world-level leader, he couldn't kill the Lion King so easily. That Lion King had an incredibly tenacious life force.

The entire arena plunged into a bizarre silence, with only Li Yao taking out a bag of clear water to wash the blood off his arm.

They had no idea, Li Yao's seemingly simple punch held a secret. Firstly, Time Deceleration gave Li Yao ample reaction time, and at this moment, the Lion King opened his giant mouth, exposing an extremely deadly flaw.

As a camp-level leader, its beast skin had formidable defensive power, be it physical or magic.

But the oral cavity remained vulnerable, relatively speaking, of course.

If it was just like this, a single punch still couldn't kill the Lion King, but Li Yao also had the Dark Touch.

Do not forget, Li Yao's Dark Touch was no longer a simple auxiliary grabbing tool, but a weapon with formidable attack power and traits, absolutely of ghostly nature.

Li Yao's punch naturally was heavy, but at the same time, countless Dark Touches had already crazily spread, rooting directly in the Lion King's innards, coupled with Li Yao's corrosion, curse and Flame of Life simultaneously spreading from the insides. Not to mention a camp-level boss, even a world-level couldn't withstand it.

In one second of Time Deceleration, the Dark Touch had already spread to the Lion King's internal organs, draining his vitality.

"Now, do I have the qualification to challenge you for the throne?"

Li Yao's voice wasn't loud, but it spread to everyone's ears, his words pulling everyone back to reality.

"Hahaha, good, now this is interesting. I thought my blood had cooled, but at this moment it burns anew."

King Godok walked step by step down the arena, his gaze becoming sharper.

"Then let's fight." Li Yao was now also filled with intense fighting spirit. Truth be told, having his Mechanical Avatar challenge a world-level leader was very challenging, and he dared not be careless.

After all, this was not merely about winning a duel; it was about whether he could become the king of the Gordok Ogres.

"You fought one battle, I'll give you time to rest, lest you lose and complain it's unfair. Oh, I forgot, those who lose to me become dead men, and you won't have the chance to complain." King Godok stated confidently.

"No need, if one punch exhausted my strength, then there's no need to challenge you. I might as well kill myself." Li Yao was also filled with boundless fighting spirit.

"Very well, then let's fight." King Godok grasped with both hands.

Click, click, click!

His fists were covered with a layer of metal, and a spike shot out with a punch. It turned out to be a peculiar fist weapon.

Li Yao's expression grew more serious. Though the fist weapon had a short attack range, those who used it typically had considerable strength and were fast and responsive in attack.

Li Yao could deal with strong and slow-reacting opponents.

Roar!

Before Li Yao, a roaring Lion King appeared, and his figure grew bigger, turning blood red all over.

This was the Bloodline Ability, Berserk Blood, Li Yao obtained after Dark Touch absorbed the Lion King's bloodline, raising his attack and agility by twenty percent within a minute.

Li Yao grabbed the Lion King's tail, watching as King Godok marched forward, swirling the Lion King like propellers...
