MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Da Vinci, the primary healer, was the last of the three to give up, leaving her with two of their equipment entitlements. Naturally, receiving better equipment would most benefit the team.

Then there was Starfire’s core group’s main tank, the Fruit Knight, their benefit to the team was also naturally lifted with better equipment.

The members of Starfire understood that this was essentially a gift-giving segment.

Of course, first and foremost, you needed to have enough strength. While it increases the odds of acquiring lower level equipment, it also highlights that the final boss would be very difficult to defeat.

With three pieces of equipment swapped out, the Guardian Knight had replaced more than five pieces of equipment. The equipment alone surpassed that of the strongest tank of the Devil Alliance.

While Li Yao was thrilled, he heard Young Khan instruct him to step up to perform; he asked in shock, “Since when were there rules dictating who should participate?”

Young Khan replied with a wave of his hand, “Not exactly, it’s just that your team has performed exceptionally well, we’re curious about the capabilities of the team leader who has guided such a team.”

Li Yao was suddenly enlightened. No wonder he did not have a single recalling of that being the case, as during his previous life, as they ran dungeons, it was always arranged by the team as to who would attempt the trial. He had never witnessed Young Khan personally designate someone to step down.

“Of course, we made this decision on the fly, and we will provide a fitting compensation. The final one is quite difficult, but if you can still singlehandedly complete the final trial, we will grant you a small team’s worth of reward slots.” Young Khan paused, “Also, you may pick out a piece of epic equipment from my collection.”

Li Yao’s eyes brightened. There was a stroke of luck. As far as he knew, there were many trials with varying outcomes depending on performance.

Among them, an entire small team’s trial was the most popular, since one could obtain five pieces of equipment all at once.

However, this kind of trial on a good day may only occur once, but on a bad day one might not even encounter it.

Li Yao found himself in an unprecedented situation where one person could get the reward of five people in the trial, and he could also choose a piece of top-notch equipment.

“It seems there are many benefits to being the first to kill. At least, it can change the course of the story.” After Li Yao thought about it for a bit, he understood, and stopped worrying.

“How about it? We really want to see your strength, it will give us more confidence.” Young Khan sincerely said.

Li Yao pretended to ponder for a while before finally saying, “Since Young Khan is so enthusiastic, it would be ungracious of me to refuse. Alright, I accept this challenge, I just hope I won’t disappoint.”

“Good, delightful!” Young Khan and the elders behind him all showed joy. If this team leader truly had formidable strength, they felt their chances of success would be very high. It’s much better than the previous situation where they had no choice, depended on luck, and lacked confidence.

An elder with a green beard said, “The final trial is very simple, we will send down one of our Commanders, you only need to duel him for a quarter hour without losing in order to pass.”

Li Yao was stunned, he hadn’t expected this kind of trial. To him, this was easy. He then asked, “Since it’s so simple, I’d like to know, if I were to defeat the Commander, would that count as a win?”

Hearing Li Yao’s confident words, all the centaurs laughed heartily. A centaur Commander was a true one in a million among their race, and Li Yao was only a three-star elite, boasting that he could defeat a mid-level boss like the Commander in a quarter hour; how could they not laugh?

Smiling, Young Khan said, “If you can indeed defeat the Commander within a quarter hour, then you are truly a warrior among warriors. I will become sworn siblings with you then, sharing fortune and disaster together. The Split Hoof Tribe will be your most stalwart supporter.”

A glimmer of surprise flashed across Li Yao’s eyes. What he knew about this Young Khan was not simple.

After the Split Hoof Tribe survived its crisis and reemerged in the world, it developed rapidly and continued to absorb other wandering, defeated centaurs.

In the future, the tribe grew into a super world-class boss, and the Split Hoof Tribe became a formidable tribe for the Neutral Faction, making both the Light and Dark Factions very apprehensive.

Of course, this tribe revered traditions, compared to the ancient centaurs, and returned to worshiping the God of Nature, which the three factions were happy to see. They also played a huge role in the face of a great crisis in the future.

To have such an impressive NPC swear brotherhood with him, the benefits he would receive, whether for himself or for Starfire, would be massive after becoming sworn brothers.

Of course, after becoming sworn brothers, he must secure the first kill, otherwise, this would only be a vision and have no real meaning.

If he secures the first kill, for the guild, Starfire and the Split Hoof Tribe would be allies that could help each other to a certain extent. They could even recruit some centaur archers when recruiting soldiers.

One should know that centaur archers were the top archer group in this world. If Starfire could recruit this kind of troops, they would likely laugh in their sleep.

For him personally, his performance today and his relationship with Young Khan would elevate his prestige among the Split Hoof Tribe to near reverence. Under such conditions, he could buy many of the tribe’s local specialties. The most direct are the arrows made by centaurs, such as poison arrows, paralysis arrows, and other rare arrows, which the centaurs could produce in large quantities.

“If that’s the case, then it’s a deal.” Li Yao immediately jumped down from the Trial Ground. As he landed, he performed a Shadow Roll and landed lightly. Despite a distance of several dozens of meters, he didn’t lose a touch of HP.

This kind of elegant and smooth movement seemed simple, but it actually involved mastering the timing and precise calculations. Many insightful people in the field cheered for him.

“Young Khan, let me have a match with this brother, to see the strength of the outsiders. Please agree, Young Khan.” Although he appeared to be asking, there was no hint of negotiation in his tone. He had already walked onto the combat arena.

He was one of the most outstanding young men in the tribe, the son of the third elder, and the one most unwilling to accept Young Khan as his successor.

In his opinion, Young Khan’s ascent to the throne was entirely due to the fact that his father was the old Khan. If not for the old Khan, he would naturally be the successor. Therefore, he was the most unreconciled, and the most unruly.

“If that’s the case, do your best, Mark.” A hint of displeasure flashed in Young Khan’s eyes, but thinking of his father’s teachings, he suppressed his anger, and with a face full of smiles, gave his consent.

The elders behind Young Khan nodded their approval. From this matter, they saw Young Khan’s magnanimity, completely unlike their worries about him being complacent after ascending to a high position at a young age…
